【參考範文】
The Effects of Television on Communication
There is no doubt that television has greatly changed people’s lives. After its invention, it became an almost indispensable part of most households within the space of just a few days, many families have two or even three television sets so that every member of the family can watch what he wants whenever he wants. In my opinion, this has significantly reduced the amount of time that family and friends spend communicating with each other.
Before the invention of television, people spent their leisure time in more active and social pursuits. They often played cards or other games, listened to the radio together or went out to see friends. But now television is widely available and it offers a variety of program choices that appeal to almost every interest. People no longer have to look to others for entertainment. Also, television can be like a sedative. Studies have shown that watching a great deal of television makes people more passive. Finally, people are simply watching increasing amounts of television. And with two or three TV sets in the house, there is no need for them to even watch it together.
Although television has reduced the amount of time that family and friends spend together, it doesn’t have to be this way. People can make the choice to turn off the TV and do something more active. Or, if they really want to watch TV, they can find a thought-provoking program that they would all like to watch and discuss afterwards.

電視傳播的影響
毫無疑問,電視極大地改變了人們的生活。發明後,這幾乎成為大多數家庭中不可或缺的一部分,僅僅幾年的空間。現在,許多家庭有兩個甚至三個電視機,每個家庭成員都可以看任何他想要的時候他想要的東西。在我看來,這大大降低了,家人和朋友之間溝通的時間。
在電視發明之前,人們有空就會做更積極的消遣,並進行社交活動。他們經常玩撲克牌或其他遊戲,一起聽收音機或出去拜訪朋友。但是現在電視很普及,有各式各樣的節目可供選擇,幾乎能讓每個人都很感興趣。人們不再需要別人尋找娛樂。同時,電視可以像鎮靜劑。研究表明,看大量的.電視使人們更加被動。最後,人們只是看電視的時間變得越來越多。和兩個或三個電視機,沒有必要甚至一起看。
雖然電視的時間減少了,家人和朋友呆在一起,這並不一定是這樣。人們可以選擇關掉電視,去從事一些更積極的活動。或者,如果他們真的想看電視,他們可以找到一個發人深省的程序,他們都想看完之後可以一起討論。
