37、levisionToday, Id like to talk about television. I want to discuss with you televisions good and bad effects on our life.Television was invented in 1939. In the early 1950s, it entered into our households. Since then, millions 0f children have grown up in front of the TV set. Now, many people in the

38、 United States spend most of their free time watching television. It is reasonable to say that television plays an important role in our life. It has greatly changed peoples social and personal life. One should surely thank its inventors for the joy and the interest that they have brought into our l

39、ife, for the information and education it has provided for both adults and children.Firstly, television has transformed information. It has opened a window in everybodys life. No newspaper has ever reached so many people and shown so clearly what was happening right now in their own country and ever

40、ywhere else. Television not only gives the news instantly, it also shows it in pictures, which is more powerful than words. It can be said that television has brought reality to the public. Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914, thinking that it was a romantic adventure. Millions

41、of people now have seen the disaster that a war could bring to peoples life. The dead bodies, the blood, the homeless children, the flaming houses are all shown before your eyes through television. The result is a general revolt against war, and perhaps more interest in helping the victims of a war.

42、Secondly, television has also transformed politics. With the help of television, now even people from the most remote area can follow political issues, see and hear the candidates debate with each other on television. Through televisions intensive coverage on the election issue, people get to know t

43、he different parties platforms, their different domestic and foreign policies. When people are better informed, they are more likely to vote. The larger the voter turnout is, the greater political democracy will be achieved.However, like almost anything else, television has its bad side as well as i

44、ts good side. Many people now worry about the effects that television has on our life, on society in general, and especially on the young people.Firstly, sociologists think that television increases the gap between people. As most of peoples free time is spent in front of the TV sets, there is less

45、time for friends gathering, visits and parties. People become less known to each other. This is especially the case with the families. Because of the distraction of television, there is little chance of family members to sit around together and talk to one another after dinner. It is well known that

46、 many of our problemseverything, in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of mental illness are caused at least in part by failure to communicate. We do not tell each other what is disturbing us. The result is emotional difficulty of one kind or another.Secondly, telev

47、ision is considered to be extremely harmful to the young people. Educators, psychologists, and crime experts complain that the young have spent too much time watching television. They suggest television, or at least a considerable part of its programs, should be forbidden to young people.These experts arguments are mainly focused on two effects television has on young people. First of all, the young people believe and want to imitate whatev
