▶ Your Answer :
There is an argument over whether the purpose of television should be educational, not entertaining. Some people like watching educational programs because it gives us information and knowledge. My view, however, is that the purpose of television should be entertaining, not educational. This is largely because people want to remove their stress and can improve their relationship while watching entertaining television programs.
To begin with, it is no secret that the majority of people today have their stresses. Therfore, they want to get rid of their stress. And one of the resonable way to remove their stress is watching television at their home because this dose not have to spend money and home is the best rest space. According to a study recently released by the Korean National Research Center, more than two-thirds of the surveyd people mentioned that they remove their stresses by watching entertaing programs. Consquently, purpose of watching television is entertaing.
Moreover, people can improve their relationship by watching entertaing programs. Educational programs might help to get a number of infomation and knoledge and people can share idea with their friends and family. However, Sharing ideas could became arguments. For example, my father and I watched documentary together and we discussed the documentary. But we had a diffrent ideas. Finally, we argued and he scolded me.
To sum up, watching entertaining programs is an effective stress reliver and improves relationships with frieds and family. Therfore, the purpose of the television shoud be entertaining, not educational.
