A.3 Read Thirty years ago in Viet Nam, very few people had TV sets. These TV owners were very popular. After dinner, their neighbors gathered both inside and outside their houses. Some watched through the windows. All evening, they sat and watched black and white TV programs. The older people might sleep a little and the children might play with their friends, but no one went home until the TV programs finished. Times have changed. Today, many families have a TV set. People sit in their own living rooms and watch TV. Life is more comfortable now, but many neighbors don’t spend much time together any more. TV in Viet Nam English 7 - Unit 14 - A3 - page 142
