                                                 Media

We have already spoken about magazine and newspapers, even sung about Internet. What will be our lesson today about? Right are you, it’ll be  devoted to TV. At first let’s refresh our words related to the topic “Television”!

Before reading: answer the question “Do you agree that TV has positive and negative sides? What sides are predominant to your mind?”

                                          Advantages and disadvantages of TV

   Watching TV, you know, is the perfect way to spend our free time. Do you agree? Or maybe you don’t? It’s a well known fact that TV has good and bad sides.  

   First of all it keeps people informed; we can learn a lot of information watching TV. We can choose programs that appeal to us more, because TV provides programs for all interests. Sometimes with the help of TV we can relax, entertain ourselves, especially when we are tired.

   Advertisement on TV gives us information about different products, and it makes it easier to choose things to buy. When we watch TV we learn something new about the world, famous people and recent news.

   But, on the other hand, TV has a lot of disadvantages. It takes a lot of time and it makes us lazy. Besides, it’s very harmful for our health, especially for our eyes. Some violent programs and films on TV make people violent. Violence becomes a vital problem in our days.

  There is too much advertisement on TV. Sometimes it can encourage us to buy things we don’t need at all. Watching TV takes all free time from almost all people. We just watch it, not concentrate, and waste time.

  So, we can’t say exactly whether it’s useful to watch TV or not, as TV has its advantages and disadvantages.

  Millions people in the world spend hours watching TV every day… But what for? Do people really think it’s the best way to spend time?

    Many people become TV-addicted and it’s really a problem of our time. But the fact is that “so many people, so many minds!” And what do you think? 

  T:   Make up the table, using facts from the text (it’s better to divide the class in to two groups, the first one – to find the advantages of watching TV, the second one - to find the disadvantages of watching TV)

  T: Try to express the main idea of the text in several sentences.
