             Our own survey was carried out among 10 students of our group. They were asked how often they use TV, if they find it useful, if it should be renewed, if they would take TV with themselves on a desert island and if they would use TV in future.

              All of them answered they always used TV, they found it very useful and it should be renewed. Everyone would take TV with him/herself if he/she were on a desert island. They will use TV in future.

              So, TV is a very popular and useful gadget now.
