Watching TV is my hobby. I like watching TV very much because I think it has many advantages (优点).

First of all, watching TV is a good rest. After a day′s hard work, we need a good rest. Watching TV can make us not tired any more because of the wonderful music and TV plays.

Second, watching TV is entertaining (娱乐的). There are many kinds of entertainments, such as sports activities, singing and dancing concerts all over the world at any time. It′s not possible for us to go to every place to enjoy all the activities within a short time. We need about or over three hours to fly from New York to Pairs. But within just one second, TV can bring us from an NBA game in New York to a fashion show in Pairs by changing the channel (频道).

Most importantly, watching TV is educational. Our children can learn different kinds of subjects through the educational programs and it's easy for them to learn Chinese from a Chinese teacher in Beijing and to learn Russian from a Russian teacher in Moscow. We can even learn how to behave (表现) well from TV plays. At the same time, a teacher can teach millions of students without a huge (极大的) classroom.

Eric and Chen first met in their Maths class at an American college. Chen was an International student from China. He wanted to learn about American culture and hoped he and Eric would become good friends. At first, Eric seemed friendly. He always greeted Chen warmly before class. Sometimes he offered to study with Chen. He even invited Chen to eat lunch with him. But after the term was over and they were in different classes, Eric seemed more distant. They didn’t see each other very much at college. One day Chen called Eric, but Eric didn’t seem very interested in talking to him. Chen was hurt by Eric’s change of attitude(态度).“Eric said we were friends.” Chen said. “I thought friends were friends forever”.
