Perhaps more people listen to the radios. We call them listeners. Older people call the radio the wireless (无
线电). And in conversation people call television TV or the "tele".
The TV is, of course, more useful than the radio. On the TV you can see and hear what is happening. But
the radio is not disappearing. It's still with us. And the number of listeners is becoming larger. One reason for
this is that the invention of the transistor set (晶体管收音机) is sometimes very small. It's easy to carry. You
can put one in your pocket when you go to work. You can listen to the news broadcasts or radio lessons on
the bus. You can listen to them on your bike. You can put your own transistor set beside your pillow when
you go to bed. Besides radio broadcasts are better for blind people. And many old people's eyes are not good
enough to watch TV. When people are working, they can not watch TV. But they can always listen to music
on the radio. What's more, a TV set is usually more expensive than a transistor set.

George Stephenson was born in 1781 in a poor family. He had to start work when he was only eight. When George was fourteen, he became his father’s helper. He spent a lot of time learning about engines. And on holidays he often took one to pieces and studied each piece carefully. Soon he became a very good worker though he could not read or write. He began to learn the English letters when he was seventeen years old. Every day after he did twelve hours of hard work, he walked a long way to have lessons from a young school teacher. On his eighteenth birthday, he wrote his own name for the first time in his life. George invented many things in his life. The train was the greatest one among them. Today when we watch or take trains from one place to another, we will think of this great man -- George Stephenson.
