Exercise 4: Complete the following sentences with no more than three words.
Disadvantages of watching television
Sex, crime, and violence are frequently depicted on television and may have
negative effects on impressionable children (and adults!). Kids who see violent
acts are more likely to display aggressive or violent behavior and also to believe
that the world is a scary place and that something bad is going happen to them.
Ongoing studies have shown a lasting correlation between watching violence on
television and aggression that begins in childhood and continues into adulthood.
Viewers sometimes imitate violent, criminal, sexual, or other risky behavior
they see on television... and end up in trouble, in jail, or in a hospital as a result.
Watching too much television is not good for your health. Studies have shown
that there is a correlation between watching television and obesity. Excessive
TV watching (more than 3 hours a day) can also contribute to sleep difficulties,
behavior problems, lower grades, and other health issues.
Television makes us antisocial, taking the place of family and friends.
It’s a waste of time. Watching television fills the time a person might have
spent doing important, enriching things like interacting socially with other
human beings, being physically active, discovering the outdoors, reading, using
one’s own imagination, or accomplishing other things like working or doing
homework or chores, or spending time with enriching hobbies like art, music,
etc.
Television might be addictive. For those who watch a lot, it’s very hard to quit,
so it is similar to a dependency like alcoholism or any another addiction. Recent
studies have found that up to 12% percent of TV-watchers feelunhappy about
the amount of TV they watch, consider themselves addicts yet feel incapable of
stopping themselves.
