The influences television has on our lives
The life of people all over the world has greatly changed with the
advent of television. Television is an electronic device for people for
disseminating informations, which are combined with visual and audio
informations broadcasted from television stations to the owners of televisions.
It was invented at about one century ago in 1888, and began to prevail just
after World War II; however, it is supposed to be one of the most significant
appliances in 20 century, which has changed people greatly in all aspects of
people's life.
I think the chief influences television has on our lives is that
it makes it much easier for us to acquire many daily or instant informations
such as daily news. In addition, it brodens our horizons in various kinds of
knowledges, and entertains us through many interesting programs. If one family
has a TV at home, all memebers can turn on the TV just by pressing a button on
the remote control. It is said that "one can know things all over the world
without going outside.", and one can make this dream come true with the help of
a TV. Besides, it takes a good deal of time to have some entertainments without
wasting a lot of time on transportation. Before the emergence of television
industries, it took much time to go to a theater for watching dramas or movie
theaters for watching movies. What did they do for entertainments are playing
outdoor games such as hide-and-seek or creatures in the mud, which seem to be
less interesting and without variations. After TV companies massively
manufactured TVs and the price of reduced to the lesser, people can cut down on
the time of transportation, and watch TV plays with funny plot and other
interesting TV programs. The life of people is really brightened. Additionally,
television also changes people's concepts and feelings for the world. Through
the fast transmission of informations, all people in the world feel as if being
linked together. Every countries, cities, and people are highly related with one
another.
However, the demerits and harm of TV are also great for people. For
example, many adults, childrens, or even like to watch TV all the time after
getting off duty, and some of them watch TV programs all the time after dinner.
Its' said that watching TV is an act which requires little for thinking. To sit
on the sofa and watch TV for much time is kind of lazy, indolent, and idiotic.
Our time is precious for us to use, and it is much more meaningful to partake
in some other activities or develop the hobbes we are good at. What's worse,
some stuff which is popular in TV programs is really vulgar and worldly. If a
some people always want to catch up with the popularity, they would forget the
things they originally want to pursue at heart. It's really a pity for them.
In conclusion, television really influence people a lot, and what
really counts for those who have a TV is to well use them. The best way for
people to confront with TV is that don't spend too much time on watching and
indulging themselves in it. Try to discern that whether one TV program is
beneficial or not. When watching TV programs, try to think more about what you
are watching. If so, a TV would have a good influence on you.
