Colonel Harland Sanders retired when he was 65 years old, he had little to show for himself, except an old Caddie roadster （敞篷小客車）, a $105 monthly pension （養(yǎng)老金） check, and a recipe （食譜） for chicken. Knowing he couldn’t live on his pension, he took his chicken recipe in hand, got behind the wheel of his car, and set out to make his wealth.

His first plan was to sell his chicken recipe to restaurant owners, and he was given 5 cents for every piece of chicken they sold. The first restaurant he called on refused him.

So did the second.

So did the third.

In fact, the first 1,008 restaurant owners refused him. Still, he continued to call on owners as he traveled across the USA, sleeping in his car to save money. He hoped number 1,009 gave him his first “yes.”

After two years of making daily sales, five restaurant owners would sell his Fried Chicken. Still the Colonel kept on working, knowing that he had a great chicken recipe and that someday the idea would be popular.

Of course, you know how the story ends. The idea did catch on. By 1963 the Colonel had 600 restaurants across the country selling his secret recipe of Kentucky Fried Chicken.

When it first appeared fifty years ago, TV was expected to make great contributions （貢獻(xiàn)） to education and culture. Radio, of course, could already reach almost everyone in developed countries, providing fun and news as well as some educational programs. People in different areas were able to listen to the same program at the same time, and this makes people’s sense of community（社會(huì)）stronger. It also brought about the wider use of a standard form of the language. TV, it was thought, would have all these good results, but to a much greater degree, since people would not only hear but also see what was happening.

There is no doubt many people were satisfied with what TV brought them. People know more than ever before about things in the furthest corners of the earth, and even beyond. TV has brought increased comfort to people unable to leave their beds, to the lonely and to the old. It is suggested that families are much closer as they stay at home to watch their favorite programs. However, in a number of ways the effects of TV have been a source （根源） of disappointment and even of worry to those who had expected so much of it.

The main problem has been its influence on kids. Some American scientists say that in the United States TV has produced a generation （一代人）who have become slaves （奴隸）to TV. Others say American teenagers see so many deaths on TV that they had more violence（暴力） in real life. The violence seen on TV, they believe, are special dangerous because the harm to teenagers is not always immediately clear. In the same way, teachers think that children have less interest in reading and their reading ability has become weaker, because watching so much TV discourages children from using their own imaginations.
