M： Mom， can we go shopping on Saturday？ I need some new shoes.

Good evening， everyone！ Here we are at the beginning of a new television season. Let’s look at the best of the new and the old shows. First， let’s talk about the daily shows. I think the best show is on Channel Six from 6：00 to 7：00 every evening. Johnson has read the news on this show for many years. He and his team always do their difficult job well. The same channel is also good for late night watching. At 11：30 every night， Ted talks with famous people on his 90-minute show， “Nighttime”. He always has interesting people on. This week， three beautiful movie stars are going to talk about their new films. In the afternoon， only Channel Eleven has a good children’s show， “The Children’s Room” at 3：30. This show has educational cartoons. They keep children happy for hours. Channel Three has the best game shows， and then watch this one. They ask interesting questions and give away a lot of money. It’s a good way to learn about the world， too.
