    There are few families in the United States that do not have either a radio or television set. Both of them have become a necessary part of our daily life, keeping us filled with the news of the day, teaching us in many fields of interest, and making us happy with singing, dancing and acting.
    Marconl, the Italian inventor, who gave us the radio, probably didn't know how much his great invention would have done for the world in the years to come. Radio had, perhaps done as much as any other communication tool. Things of the world can be reported to people everywhere a few seconds after they happen. Travelers in or out of–the–way places, ships at sea even astronauts round the earth are able to keep in touch with each other by radio.
    Television is another important invention. It lets us see as well as hear the actor. Since its appearance, TV has done a great deal in the daily life of people everywhere. Many programs are now televised in color.
    Perhaps the most modern invention is “Telstar”, a “star” moving round the earth. It makes it possible for the people all over the world to be closer than ever before. Now a family in Chicago can watch on TV a motor–car race in Italy, a table tennis competition in Beijing or a volleyball match in Japan as these events are actually happening!

阅读下面的文言文,完成下列各题。

    李大性,字伯和,端州四会人。少力学,尤习本朝典故。以父任入官,进《艺祖庙谟》百篇。又言:“元丰制,六察许言事,章惇为相始禁之,乞复旧制,以广言路。”从臣力荐之,迁一秩,为湖北提刑司干官。未几,入为主管吏部架阁文字。丁母艰,服阕,进《典故辩疑》百篇,皆本朝故实,盖网罗百氏野吏,订以日历,核其正舛,率有据依,孝宗读而褒嘉之。

    擢大理司直,迁令所删定官,通劓楚州。郡守吴曦与都统刘超合议,欲撤城移他所,大性谓:“楚城实晋所筑,最坚,奈何以脆薄易坚厚乎?”持不可。台臣将劫其沮挠,不果。会从官送北客,朝命因俾廉访,具以实闻,遂罢戎帅,召大性除太府寺丞。

    陈傅良以言事去国,彭龟年、黄度等继皆去。大性抗疏言:“朝廷清明乃使言者无故而去臣所甚惜也数人之心皆本受君知其爱君任其去而不顾恐端人正士之去者将不止此。”

    为户部待郎,升尚书。朝论将用兵,大性条陈利害,主不宜轻举之说,忤韩侂胄意,出知平江,充荆湖制置使。江陵当用兵后,残毁饥馑,继以疾疲,大性首议振贷,凡三十八万缗有奇。前官虚羡,凡十有四万五千缗,率蠲放不督,民流移新复业者,皆奏免征。边郡武爵,本以励士,冒滥滋众,大性劾两路戎司冒受逃亡付身,凡三千四百九十有七道,率缴上毁抹。江陵旧使铜镪,钱重楮轻。民持赀入市,有终日不得一钱者。大性奏乞依襄、郢例通用铁钱,于是采货流通,民始复业。除刑部尚书兼详定敕令。卒于家,年七十七,赠开府仪同三司,谥文惠。

(选自《宋史·李大性传》,有删改)

【注】①羡:盈余。②钱重楮轻:指纸币不能兑换成铜钱,贬值。楮:纸币。
