Every year，on the third Sunday of June，there is a day just to thank fathers. It's Father's Day. Every father in the US gets a gift from his wife or children. The gift doesn't have to be big or expensive (昂贵的). It just has to be something that shows love. This gift is to let the father know how special(特别的) he is and how important he is in the family. The gift may be just a simple sentence. But it is very important. Being a father is hard today. They have to do a lot of things. And in the US we try to let them know just how special they are. It is very important to let each father know，without him，life will be very hard and boring.

American boys and girls love to watch television. Some children spend six hours a day in school and four to six hours a day in front of the television set. Some even watch television for eight hours or more on Saturday.
Televisions are like books or films. A child can learn bad things and good things from them. Some programmes(节目) help children to understand(理解) the news，and others show people and places from other countries or other time in history. With television，a child does not have to go to the zoo to see animals or go to the ocean (海洋)to see a ship. Boys and girls can see a play，listen to a concert(音乐会) or watch a game at home.
Television brings many places and events into our homes. Some programmes show crime(犯罪) and other things that are bad for children，so parents should sometimes help them to find other interesting things to do.

美国的男孩和女孩们喜欢看电视。一些孩子每天在学校花费6个小时，在电视机前花费4到6个小时。一些孩子甚至在周六看8个小时或更长时间的电视。
电视就像书籍或电影一样。孩子可以从中学到坏的东西和好的东西。一些节目帮助孩子们理解新闻，其他节目则展示其他国家的人、地方或者历史上的其他时期。有了电视，孩子不必去动物园看动物，也不必去海洋看船。男孩和女孩们可以在家看戏剧、听音乐会或者看比赛。
