Caroline Randan ~ Too much watching TV


Argumentative Text:
Too much watching TV

Is watching TV good for us?
I don’t think so. I mean it will really give bad effect for us. Let me tell you some disadvantages of too much watching TV. In my opinion, too much watching TV especially for programming of low educational value can reduce people’s ability to concentrate. Most people or children who watch a lot of TV loose their ability to focus on a subject or an educational activity for more than10 to 15 minutes. In this modern condition, more people unable to pay attention, listen well, and follow instructions. For example, my cousin Aurel as  a student ,she can’t be a silent person in her class even when her teacher is giving explanation or instruction because she always watches TV. She prefers watching TV to studying. So, she’s lazy and won’t do her homework. The other reason is the amount of violence on the screen movie or in TV programs. It scares people and gives them terrible nightmares. Many researches show that certain personality types are likely to have strong emotional reactions and dangerous thoughts after they watched some TV programs like shows. For example, in a school named SDN 5 Rancaekek . A student shot his teacher and some of his friends use his weapon. It’s because the boy was deeply influenced by the actions TV program. Now, we know that too much watching TV is bad for us. Be careful!
