 The Tape Recorder

The tape recorder is one of the most welcome and popular electronic devices ever invented. There are many types of recorders. Some may be as big as a hand box some may be as small as a watch. Now a new type called Walkman has come into being, which is so convenient that you can take it with you wherever you want to go. It is also very cheap, about forty or fifty yuan, and the most expensive one costs only several hundred, and it is very easy to handle even for a child. Therefore, almost each family has one or two recorders.

This device is useful in many ways. It is not only widely used in our daily life, for example, filming, sporting, exercising, but also used in National Security. It is an essential instrument for the young to learn foreign languages, for the old to listen to music or Peking Opera and for English teachers to make their class lively and interesting.

However, it can also become a nuisance if we use it improperly. It will have a bad effect on others or ourselves if we play it too long or too frequently. So we must make good use of it to promote our study and work.
