Life is short! Who has time to waste? Not I. If you are really honest with yourself, you'll notice that you may be
spending too much time on television and there are better things you could be doing. Whether you watch television
or not is your decision. But consider this first.

GUÍA Y TALLER # 2 – PRIMER PERIODO GRADO: 11

Some people say TV is educational, but it is an ineffective medium for learning. Though there is a great variety of programs
and sometimes they are interesting, many TV shows offer information that is not accurate. If you really want to learn
something, you should read it for yourself.

TV can help you keep informed and it is necessary to know what is happening with people and places around you. However,
if you watch the average news program, you have to waste a long time on useless information. If you really want to be up-
to-date, read the newspaper; it is more detailed and you can choose which stories you read.
The average adult spends about 2 hours a day watching TV. Let's say you lived to age 60; you would have spent 5 years
of your life in front of the television. Not only could you be catching up with your family during that time, since watching TV
with them it is not real interaction, but you are also preventing yourself from having new experiences. Do you know what
you could do with those extra years? Here's some advice: create some art, talk to people, exercise, learn a foreign language
or how to play an instrument.
Using those two hours a day for something you "don't have time for," will make you have time for a lot more.
1. What is the author trying to do with the text?
A. describe people who spend hours in front of the screen
B. suggest that there are better leisure activities than TV
C. warn about consequences after a long-time watching TV
D. explain why television is important to keep up-to-date

2. What might a person decide to do after reading this article?

A. try to become an artist
B. keep informed by watching TV
C. watch less television
D. consider visual learning

33. According to the text, knowledge from TV

A. gives specific descriptions of events.
B. contains many things not worth learning.
C. is always useful for learning.
D. is limited since it does not have diverse topics.

34. In the text, "5 years" refers to the time that

A. someone takes to become addicted to TV.
B. TV needs to teach us something interesting.
C. an average person watches TV in a lifetime.
D. you need to become an expert TV viewer.

35. Which of the following statements would the writer make?

A. One day I realized I needed more contact with real people and situations than with television.
B. I believe true artists should take advantage of television as a resource to learn and practice.
C. I must admit sometimes I am so busy that I watch TV instead of reading the newspaper.
