Translate the following paragraph into Chinese and pay attention to the verbs used in the paragraph:
  Radio and Television (C级)
  1 There are few homes in Britain today that do not have either a radio or television set(定语从句, that指代前面的homes). Both of them have become an essential part of our life, keeping us informed of the news of the day, instructing us in many fields of interest, and entertaining us with singing, dancing and acting(划线结构是现在分词结构,与句子的谓语部分并列).
  2 Television is another major instrument of communication, permitting us to see as well as to hear the performer(划线结构是现在分词结构,与句子的谓语部分并列). Since its appearance, TV has had a tremendous1 effect on the daily life of people everywhere.
  3 Improvements2 of all kind are constantly being made in television so that reception will be as close to perfect as possible(结果状语从句, so that/以至于). Perhaps the most recent advancement3 of significance has been “Telstar.” The specially4 equipped space capsule(太空飞船), orbiting5 the globe(分词结构, 作定语修饰前面的space capsule), makes it(形式宾语) possible for the entire world to be closer than ever before(真正的宾语). Now a family in Manchester can watch on TV a football match in France, a ski tournament(锦标赛) in Norway, or a parade in Japan as these events are actually happening(时间状语从句, as“当”).

  今日英国,收音机和电视几乎已经深入每个家庭,它们已经成为了我们生活中不可缺少的一部分。它们能使我们了解到每天的新闻,帮助我们提高对许多领域的兴趣,让我们得到音乐,舞蹈和表演的消遣。
  电视机是另一种主要的通讯工具。它能让我们在听到声音的同时也看到了表演者的表演。自从电视问世以来,它已经对我们的日常生活产生了巨大的影响。
  人们一直在给电视做各种改进,以使信号的接受尽可能趋于完美。“电视卫星”也许是近来最重大的进步。这个特殊装置的太空舱绕地球轨道运行着,是世界变得越来越小。如今,在曼彻斯特(英国英格兰西北部港市)的家中通过电视就可以看到正在法兰西进行的足球比赛,在挪威进行的滑雪锦标赛或在日本举行的游行。
