　　Digital television broadcasting, the “TV of the 21st Century”, was launched in Japan on Dec．1, 1999．

　　At first, the service is limited only in three of Japan's largest cities Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya, but the Japanese government is aimed to make it available in all major Japanese cities by the end of 2006．The government says that by July 24, 2011, analog (模擬) television broadcasting in Japan will officially be a thing of the past．

 World Expo 2010 Shanghai China is to be staged in Shanghai from May 1 to October 31, 2010. If you plan to visit the Shanghai Expo this summer, China Pavilion(館)is a must - see area for you.

China Pavilion, which is called Oriental Crown, is located at the center of the Expo site. Standing 63 meters tall, the China Pavilion takes the shape of an emperor's crown, with the upper layers larger than the lower ones. Covering 160,000 square meters in floor space, the pavilion is made up of a national hall and a regional(宗教的  ) hall. Buildings on the China Pavilion began on Dec. 18, 2007. The design of the China Pavilion was picked from a total of 344 designs put for­ward by Chinese from around the world. The pavilion has both traditional and modern features, which helps devel­op the theme of the 2010 Expo; "Better City, Better Life. For example, it is red in appearance, which covers the  traditional Chinese culture, and it is green indoors, with the use of energy - saving techniques. The Shanghai World Expo is expected to attract 70 million visitors from across the globe. It is estimated that 400,000 people will visit the Expo and its 140 pavilions every day during the period, but the China Pavilion is only able to receive about one tenth of the total. How to hold so many people in the pavilion remains a tough task. Luckily, the China Pavilion is built as a permanent(長久的) landmark.

During the Expo, the main structure(結(jié)構(gòu)  ) will be used for an exhibition based on the theme of “ Chinese wisdom in urban （城市）development” by explaining the values of harmony（和諧  ）, nature and spirit. The three - story pavilion has three sections. The top floor's “Footprint of the East” will show some of the changes in Chinese cities. There, you can see a film which shows how Chinese cities have changed, especially in the past 30 years. According to Lu Chuan, director of the film, the scenery is like something from Lord of the Rings. On the second floor, “Journey of Wisdom” will explain China's four great inventions.  And the ground's “ Blossoming” City will display scenes from cities of the future.
