▶ Your Answer :
Some
people might say that parents should limit the hours of watching TV programs or
movies for their child. However, I strongly believe that watching TV programs
or movies could be helpful to child to do well in school. There are several
factors on which my viewpoint is based.
To
begin with, watching TV programs or movies could be helpful to a child
educationally. To explain, there are many educational programs on TV. Also,
watching not only educational programs but also talk shows or dramas is useful
to improve linguistic ability. For example, in my case, I am Korean, and I
learned English in school. However, I did not have many opportunities to listen
real English, so I watched American dramas and movies to improve my English
skill. When I started to watch American dramas, I couldn’t understand what the
story is about, but I could watch the dramas without subtitles a year later. Moreover,
watching American dramas and movies brought me to get high scores in English
class in high school. To sum up, a child can do well in school through watching
educational TV programs or watching foreign TV dramas.
Secondly, it is important to relieve stress
well to do well in school. To be specific, limiting the hours of watching TV
programs or movies may be a good way to increase studying time. However,
studying constantly without any break time leads to get a lot of stress, and it
makes a child to do not focus on a class in school perfectly in the long run.
Therefore, a child need to have own way to manage stress, and watching TV
programs or movies could be a way to that. In short, a child may use watching
TV programs or movies as relieving stress, then a child can concentrate more on
classes in school.
In
conclusion, I disagree with the given statement based on the two reasons above.
