Television--that most pervasive and persuasive of modem technologies, marked by rapid change and growth--is moving into a new era, an era of extraordinary sophistication and versatility, which promises to reshape our lives and our world. It is an electronic revolution of sorts, made possibly by the marriage of television and computer technologies.
The world "television", derived from its Greek (tele: distant) and Latin (vision: sight) roots, can literally be interpreted as sight from a distance. Very simply put, it works in this way: through a sophisticated system of electronics, television provides the capacity of converting an image (focused on a special photoconductive plate within a camera) into electronic impulses, which can be sent through a wire or cable. These impulse, when fed into a receiver (television set) , can then be electronically reconstituted into that same image.
Television is more than just an electronic system,
A. Recent changes in modem technology.
B. The marriages of broadcasting giants.
C. The role of television in today' s society.
D. The content of broadcast television programs.
