Do you agree or disagree? Television has had a mostly positive effect on society. |
Some people watch television in a friendly way while others despise it. Although some people persist that televison is useful in our life owing to its vast information, I assert that television has been negatively influenced on our life as it wastes time, and includes harmful contents. On the first place, the waste of time is the main disadvantage of televison. Televison has stolen our time. Because television is so addicting that many people has been addicted. For example, provided a man watch televison, he will be addicted to televison and does not care of the time. According to the saying of famous Roman poet Horace 'Seize the day' to emphasize the importance of time, television throw our precious time away. Additional, as televison programs develop, many unnecessary contents also progressed. Since the general publlic prefer violent, advertisement,and sensational scene. Thus, many producers focus on commercialism. For Mark Twain, famous American wirter, television makes junk information reffering to his proverb 'Civilization is a limitless multiplication of unnecessary necessities.'. For my experience, no sooner do I watch television than I turn off televison due to enormous amount of advertisement. In conclusion, given the aspects of the extravagance of time, unnecessary information, and noisy sound, I strongly persist the nagative feature of televison. As famous British writer Muggeridge says 'Television was not invented to make human beings vacuous, but it is an emanation of their vacuity', it make people absurd. |
