Today I’ll be talking about the invention of the camera and photography. The camera is often thought to be a modern invention, but as early as 1727, a German physicist discovered that light darkens silver salt. Used as a camera, a big box was set up, and a small hole was cut in one side to let the light in; he made temporary pictures on the salt. Silver salt is still the base of the photographic film today. Then a French scientist made the first permanent picture by using a special piece of metal which was covered with silver salt. A photograph he made in 1826 still exists.
The painter De Gear improved the process by covering the metal also with placing the common salt which we can eat. This was in 1839, the official date of beginning of photographs. But the problem was the printing of the photographs. And it wasn’t until other scientists developed the kind of photographic paper we now use that good prints were possible and photography became truly modern. In the 1870’s, Matthew Bradey was able to take his famous pictures in American Civil War. In the 20’s of this century, Georges Mann of the United States simplified film developing, and Dr Edward Lane invented the so—called ‘Instant Camera’ which uses self—developing film. If we say photography came into existence in 1839, it follows that it took more than 100 years for the camera to reach its present condition of technical refinement(密度).

Television has become such a major part of life that many American parents use it as a babysitter. A new study shows that almost one-third of families have TVs in children’s bedrooms, and the number of television programs geared toward infants is growing.
Katie Weaver has her hands full. Four children in her kitchen, and two of them are hers. All of them are under the age of six, and thirsty at the same time. It’s enough to get on the nerves of any adult. Like many of the 1,000 parents surveyed in a Kaiser Family Foundation study, Katie admits she sometimes uses TV as a pacifier when her children are overly excited and it usually works.
“I don’t use it as a babysitter because they don’t watch enough or long enough for that, but if they are very hyped up, sometimes I’ll use TV to calm them down,” she said. While there has been some concern that watching too much television fosters obesity in children, the long-term effects of parking a very young child in front of the “tube” are not clear.
“A lot of them are two-parent working families, so we’re talking about having very little time with the children. If that time is used in front of a screen, rather than interactively, it’s compromising the way these children are learning to pay attention, the way they’re learning to problem-solve, and most importantly, the way they’re learning to think and use language,” said Greenspan, who is the expert of the Kaiser Family Foundation study.
In the survey, parents of children much younger, up to a year old, report viewing averages of an hour per day. For kids one to two years, it’s close to an hour and a half. Greenspan believes babies and children under the age of two should not be watching at all and he’s worried that some parents are concealing the real truth. “If anything, it’s an underestimation, because if a kid’s watching two hours, they might say an hour. So I think what we’re getting is a minimal estimate,” he said.
Television programming for very young children has been increasing. Yet one researcher involved in the Kaiser study says there is still no evidence that children up to the age of two learn anything of value from television.
