As the Internet becomes more popular,many older media (媒體) businesses are dying out. But TV seems to be doing OK. In fact,it^ doing better than OK. Though the Internet is popular in the world,television continues to draw more and more people all over the world to many of its programs. Hundreds of millions turn to TV to watch World Cup soccer,Olympic Games and Discoveries.

    In many places,increasing numbers of people can watch more TV than before. Ten years ago,only 44% of British homes had satellite or cable TV (衛(wèi)星或有線電視). Today,more than 93% do. More importantly,recent studies show that people are spending more time watching TV. Surprisingly,this is even true of young people between the ages of 8 and 18. Today5s television industry has given so many choices. As a result,people can watch more of the things they like 24 hours a day.

    The technology behind television has also improved. The big boxes that once filled living rooms are gone. Today's TV screens are thinner and thinner,yet the pictures are better and better. TVs are also moving from living rooms into kitchens and vehicles.

   For years,TVs have also been used as video game players. But now they have been used in a few new ways. Many televisions can connect to the Internet and record programs. They also let people watch two programs at the same time. Today the most modern television has been on the way of development.

    The Internet is the main challenge for television now. But don't worry about it. Television will be important for the next years to come.

   It began with one red paper clip (回形針) and ended with a house. Kyle Mac Donald,a 26-year-old Canadian got a house with three bedrooms through 14 trades (交易) that started with a single red paper clip.

Now more and more young people around the world like this kind of trading activities. They set up websites and trade on the Internet. People trade things they do not usually use with other people. A website called Peerflix allows people to trade their old possessions (財(cái)產(chǎn);所有物). These traders usually prefer face-to-face trading,in this way they don't have to worry about who is going to pay for the delivery (遞送).

     Last year,a young girl in Beijing decided to follow the example of Kyle. She started with a paper clip and hoped to get a house in the end. (1) After several trades she now has a piano which is worth more than 10 ,000 yuan. But she may still have a long way to go.

     Maybe you can't understand why people are doing this. As Kyle said ,“What's more important to a man in the desert—one million dollars or a glass of water?”(2) Kyle's words probably show why these trades are popular among young people.
