Many people like to watch TV. Watching TV is one of the most important activities of the day. TV brings the outside world closer to people's home. Some people say the world is smaller than before because of TV.

　　What's going on in the other counties? How do people live in places far away? Is there a good sports game somewhere? What's the life in the deepest part of the sea?

　　If you want to answer these and other kinds of questions, just turn on the TV. Turn it on and watch. You can see a lot and learn a lot. Of course, people can also learn through reading or listening to the radios. But with TV they can learn better and more easily. Why? Because they can hear and watch at the same time.

　　TV helps to open our eyes. TV also helps to open our minds. TV often gives us new ideas. We learn newer and better ways of doing things.
