▶ Your Answer :
Some people take it for granted that telephone works better than TV for our society. However, I disagree because TV is more appropriate appliance to affect positive influence on human life. Two reasons can support my opinion: First, TV enables us to gather in one place. Second, watching TV is one of great ways to broaden our perspectives.
The primary reason that TV is influential is TV's power to make people together. Telephone generally is used for person-to-person communication, and it works only when it turns on. However, people can gather to watch TV and it is no matter how many people in there. People even can talk with others after TV turns off. For example, most of my family's communication is on watching TV. We not only talk about TV program, but also do daily chat. This can be happen because nowadays we do not have enough time to be together due to individual busy schedule: Parents go work and children go school. Without TV, we would choose take a rest in each room rather than sitting on the chair in living room.
The second reason is that TV helps people widen their horizons. Many useful programs are aired on TV nowadays, from child education to cooking lecture. Furthermore, there are many TV programs which introduce various customs in the world. From those programs, people can be learned new things naturally. For instance, I have any experience of travelling outside of my country. However, I know quite a lot of other countries' custom as well as tourist attractions thanks to TV programs on EBS, which channel deals that kind. The more watching other countries' custom has helped me broaden my perspective of world relationship.
To sum up, I firmly believe that TV is greater than telephone in human influence. TV has an important role to bring together as well as enhance our perspectives as I have stated above.
