How television has changed

  You really have to get very old before you realize you're old. I'm in my middle fifties and I don't feel old yet. However, sometimes I look back at my childhood and 1 things to the way life is for 2 kids. Some things have certainly changed.

  One area of change is television. Some changes have been improvements. Some changes, on the other hand, have been 3 .

  When I started school, most people didn't have a television; TV was just beginning to get 4 . My father decided to go all out and buy a 16 inch black and white Motorola set. I still remember watching the Lone Ranger save people from the 5 guys on that awesome electronic machine. That was exciting!

  Now, 6 have larger pictures in full color. The pictures are clearer and the sound is much more realistic. The new high definition sets are made to rival(竞争) 7 screens.

  The variety and quantity of programming has 8 greatly. There are hundreds of channels and more shows than one person could ever watch. There are many fine entertainment and educational 9 . There's also a lot of garbage, stuff that most parents don't want their kids exposed to. Overall, we have more choices, and that is good.

  I wonder what 10 will be like when today's kids are my age.

     How would you like to study at an American university in China?

paper on a  subject and other students would    13     it. It was a way of  14    critical and logical
thinking.
