From watching TV to using DVD
meaning 'far',and the Latin word 'videre', meaning 'seeing'.
Watching TV was,and still is,a major pastime for many people.
But recently DVD has begun to enter the homes of thousands of ordinary people
Many of you must be smart enough to figure out the meanings of the two D's in the name
the first 'D' stands for 'digital' and the second 'D' for 'disc'.
Therefore,a CVD means a Digital Video Disc.
Compared with watching TV,using DVD is a big step forward.
One advantage of the DVD is that being digital,the picture quality is excellent
As there is no more wear and tear,every viewing is as good as the first,
just a sharp and crisp picture all the time!
Another advantage is that some DVDs can store as much as four hours of programmes
After inserting the disc into the player,
a menu will appear that allows you to enjoy various chapters from the movie.
You can choose full screen or wide screen as you like
possibly from different camera angles!
Because of its various functions,
DVD today also stands for Digital Versatile Disc

從看電視到DVD的轉(zhuǎn)變
意義重大，而“videre”在拉丁語中意味著“看見”。
看電視仍然是很多人消遣的主要方式。
但是DVD最近開始慢慢進入普通的千家萬戶中。
你們這么聰明，一定能猜到DVD中的兩個D的意思吧。
第一個“D”的意思是“數(shù)字的”而第二個“D”的意思則是“光碟”。
因此CVD的意思是數(shù)字視頻光碟。
相對于看電視來說，DVD的使用是一個巨大的進步。
使用DVD的一個好處就是DVD是數(shù)字技術(shù)的，畫面質(zhì)量很出色。
而且不論觀看多少遍，質(zhì)量都和第一次觀看一樣出色，無磨損，
畫質(zhì)永遠清晰優(yōu)質(zhì)！
另外一個好處就是有的DVD節(jié)目儲存時間可以達到四小時之久。
在把碟片放入播放機之后，
菜單將會讓你選擇從電影中任意你喜歡的片段開始觀看。
你也可以根據(jù)自己的喜好選擇全屏或者寬屏觀看，
或者還可能從不同拍攝角度觀看！
因為擁有多種多樣的功能，
今天的DVD也可以說是數(shù)字萬能光碟。
