Internet (part7–online radios)

The radio is a great and important invent for human. It is made us so many knowledges and happy hours. In the past, first we mostly received news from radios. Later the radio started to show us all kinds of entertainments such as music, songs, talk shows and even advertisements. For me, I remember that I often listened to radio for/about history stories after dinner with my grandmother in my childhood , and she always shared her experiences after the radio. So I liked histories from childhood. Now I always listen to any stories from car or mobile phone radioes when I drive the car. It makes me relax. And now , it make us more choices to receive more informations from online radios. Above one thousand programs online from the around of world. We can listen to foreign radios to learn different languages and to know local cultures. And if you want you can set a radio yourself to show your stories to the world.
