Television
Television nowadays has become one of the most important forms of mass media. It informs, educates and entertains people. It influences the way people look at the world and makes them change their views. In other words, mass media, and especially television, mould public opinion.
There are two viewpoints on television. Some people think that television is doing a lot of harm. People begin to forget how to occupy their free time. It prevents them from communicating with each other, from visiting friends or relatives. Now all their free time is given to television.
But there are a lot of people who consider TV helpful because it gives us a lot of information. Millions of people like to watch TV in their spare time. The TV-set now is not just a piece of furniture. It is someone who is one of the family. We become better informed by watching documentaries, science programmes and by learning about the most important economic, social and political issues of the day.
We can see famous people and great events that will pass into history. Television brings the world into our living-rooms. We see people in our country and in other lands, and learn their customs, traditions and problems. TV gives us opportunities to see the best actors and performances, to hear the latest news, to listen to political discussions.
To crown it all, TV simply helps us to relax after a hard day's work, offering a great variety of entertaining and musical programmes. Still, it's not a good thing for children to be glued to the TV screen all day long. It's very harmful for their health and for developing personalities.
