Television dominates the free-time of too many people.

It can make people lazy and prevent them from socializing with others.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Introduction: I strongly agree that TV has adverse effects

Paragraph 1: I DISAGREE. TV HAS BENEFITS


Statement: TV often relieves stress, discuss about advantages
Educational = watching a doc (Extensive ranges of documentaries are available so can be useful in interactive learning
)
for point 2:
Watching TV with family can strengthened the bond between the members.

Sentence 1. I disagree, TV has numerous benefits, health, relationships (family), education.


This is because documentaries can be watched by groups of people together so they not only learn something, they also socialise.
EG Studies show that when documentaries such as the BBC's Blue Planet are watched together, info recall increases by over 33%.
Therefore watching TV, especially docs can be social and educational.

Paragraph 2: I AGREE TV IS BAD


Statement:
Spending too much time on TV will increase inactivity and reduces social interaction
This is because watching tv may become addictive and make the public lethargic and monolithic

For example a recent study showed student's watching more than 5h a week socialised and exercised considerably less then those
who watched less than 5h / week.
Therefore viewing the TV for a long time is detrimental a person's health.

Conclusion: Even though there are advantages ....., disadvantages are significantly higher.
