In recent years, television has become the most popular form of entertainment—almost every family has a television now. Television has brought people much pleasure and information.
On television, people can watch Olympic games, they can visit well-known scenic(風(fēng)景優(yōu)美的) spots, and they can also enjoy a movie with a cup of coffee in their hands. From TV, people are informed about many things happening in the world, and people who live in different areas can also watch programs made in other countries so as to understand many different cultures.
However, some people argue against TV. They think spending too much time watching TV will affect human relationship. Suppose a whole family were glued to seats (glued to sth.不愿離開) to watch programs on TV whenever they can. They would be so addicted to TV that it would begin to control their lives. As a result, they would neglect communication with each other, so day by day, families and friends would not discuss things together, and a gap between them would appear.
what's more,if children spend too much time watching TV,they would probably form a bad habit and could not catch up with others in study. They might learn some bad things such as violence from TV,which might do harm to society in the future.
In my opinion, we shouldn't deny the advantages of TV just because it has some drawbacks. It is no doubt that people can learn something very useful from TV.Therefore,the point is that TV itself is neither good nor bad. Its value to people and society depends on how we look at it.
