　　The name “Television” comes from the Greek word “tele” meaning “far” and the Latin word “videre” meaning “to see” . Thus television means “seeing far” .

　　Television brings the world into our homes in sight and sound. Nowadays there are few families in big cities that don' t have TV sets. Experiments leading to modern television took place more than a hundred years ago . John Baird, a British inventor, found a way to send pictures by wireless.

As far back as 700B.C, man had talked about children being cared for by wolves. Romulus and Remus, the old story twin founders of Rome, were said to have been cared for by wolves.
