Many people like to watch TV. Watching TV is one of the most important activities of the day. TV brings the outside world to people’s home. Some people say the world is smaller than before because of TV.

What’s going on in other countries? How do people live in places far away? Is there a good sports game somewhere? What’s the life in the deepest(最深的) part of the sea?

If you want to answer these and other kinds of questions, just turn on the TV. Turn it on and watch. You can see a lot and learn a lot.

Dear Li Lei,

I hope you are well. Thank you for your letter. You said \"Happy Spring Festival!\" so it is spring in China now! Here in Australia it is nearly autumn, it is beginning to get colder. But it never gets really cold here.

You asked me when it was the best time to go to Australia. Australians will tell you anytime is a good time! Many people think the best time is in summer. It gets very hot at that time of year. Some people say it gets too hot. But I like summer best.

In summer I go swimming in the sea nearly every day. It's great. Swimming is very popular in Australia. The sea is very blue and very beautiful. Some people swim in the sea all the year round. But I don't swim in July and August. I think the sea is too cold.

All the best, John

Lobsters(龙虾) are delicious and many people like eating them. But they are really expensive in the restaurant. Why not cook lobsters at home? I will show you one way to cook them.

First buy some lobsters. Then you can begin. Just split(分离) the shell(壳) from the top and take the meat out of the shell. Place it in a pan with a little water and

cover it with foil(箔纸). Cook them until the meat turns white, and baste (涂抹) with butter, salt and pepper. When you overcook the meat, it will become hard and less delicious.

Cooking lobsters at home can be fun. Why not have a try? 根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)
