In China, almost every family has TV set in their house. Television has made great contribution to people’s daily lives and children’s education. Some people even think that television is one of the greatest inventions in the world. But there is a good side and a bad side to everything and that includes the television.
在中國，幾乎每個家庭都有電視機。電視在人們的日常生活和孩子的教育上面做出了巨大的貢獻。一些人認爲電視是這個世界上最偉大的發明之一。但任何事情都有好壞，電視也不例外。On one hand, TV is a powerful educational tool that through it people know what is happening in the rest of the world. Because of television, people begin to understand different cultures and current affairs. They know about the things they never knew before, they create their own opinions and form their sense of worth. The TV opens a brand-new door for them to explore the things they want to know. Many people may go traveling due to watch the beautiful scenes in TV. 一方面，電視是一個強有力的教育工具。通過電視，人們得以知道到世界的其他地方發生了什麼。因爲電視，，人們瞭解到不到的風俗習慣和時事政治。他們知道自己從未了解的事情，形成自己的見解和價值觀。電視爲他們開啓了一扇新的大門，等待着人們去探索想要知道的事物。因爲電視，很多人想去各地旅遊。On the other hand, some people may find them addicted to television, especially the young people. They spend most of their free time watching TV programs instead of playing outside with their peers. In this case, the children may lack of the ability of communicate effectively with others. TV makes them isolated. What’ more, sometimes the TV programs may contain sexual scenes or bloody scenes that not suitable for children to watch. This will cause negative effects on them.另一方面，一些人或許會發現他們沉迷於電視中，不能自拔，特別是青少年。他們的大多數空閒時間都用來看電視了，而不是與同伴們一起玩。在這樣的情況下，他們或許會缺乏與人高效溝通的能力。電視讓他們變得更加孤單。更重要的是，有時候一些電視節目會包含一些色情血腥的鏡頭，不適合小孩子觀看。這會對他們造成負面影響。To sum up, I think television has both advantages and disadvantages, people should find a balance between it. Make the most use of it, don’t be the salves of it. 總的來說，我認爲電視有利有弊。人們應該在其中找到平衡點。充分利用電視，而不是成爲它的奴隸。
