问题    Television is not only a convenient source of entertainment,
but also a comparatively cheap one. With a T. V. set in the
family people don’t have to pay expensive seats at the theatre or    【1】______
the cinema. All they have to do is to push a button or turn on a     【2】______
knob, and they can see plays, films, operas and shows of every
kind.  Some people, therefore, think that this is where the          【3】______
danger lies. The television viewers need do nothing. He does not
even have to use legs if he has a remote control. He makes no        【4】______
choice and exercises ri6 judgment. He is completely passive and
has everything present to him without any effort on his part.        【5】______
   Television, it is often said, keeps one informed about
current events and latest developments in science and politics,      【6】______
The most distant countries and the strangest customs are taken       【7】______
right into one’s sitting-room. It could be argued that the radio
performs this service well; but on television everything is much     【8】______
more living, much more real. Yet here again there is a danger.
The television screen itself has a terrible, almost physical charm
for us. We get so used to look at the movements on it, so
dependent on its pictures, it begins to control our lives. People    【9】______
are often heard to say that their television sets have broken down   【10】______
and that they have suddenly found that they have far more time
to do things and that they have actually begun to talk to each
other again.
