events on a screen as well hearing its sound
at the same time was a daydream. But now,
television makes it true. Television presents
events taking place in places thousands miles
away in front of us.
Television makes the world narrower and
long distances shorter. What happens at one
moment in other parts of the world can be
seen and heard at the same time. The great
concert in London or the busiest haours of the
New Your Stock Exchange can be watched
on the television screen. Television does not
only inform us of the world situation but also
gives us some new information on science,
technology, art and sports; periodically it
presents many kinds of entertainment
programs such as plays, films, musical
shows, jokes, games and many others.
