For a long time, it's been
discussed whether students should be allowed to watch TV during the week. I am
here to say yes.
After a little bit of
careful thinking, parents will realize that watching TV after school is a good
way for students to relax. We not only have more homework, but also have
many other things to do after school. There is tutoring(课外辅导), sports clubs and so on. When we get home, we are tired. All we
really want to do is to give our brains a break.
They had few choices. Most of the programs
were silly. Today we usually have over a hundred programs to choose from. In
one hour, we can learn about ancient Egypt and planets traveling around other
stars. TV can be educational.
Lastly, today's students
use TV watching as a prize for finishing their homework. Television does not
keep us from our homework. Instead, it encourages us to do it.
So, students should be
allowed to watch TV on school nights. Do you agree with me?
A. It shows us more things
than textbook can.
B. Parents also remember what
TV was like in the old days.
C. Television is not the
enemy, old ideas are!
D. This is totally different
from the way our parents used television.
E. Our lives are busier than
our parents' when they went to school.
