drugs.

way to make a better living for themselves. That way is to sell drugs or steal.

criminals have, especially when the criminals are in a bad environment that triggers them to commit
crimes.

way cities spend their money.

I . Exercise 3

1. Thesis:

We are writing to complain about ads on TV. There are so many ads, especially during our
favorite programs. We think they should be stopped for a number of reasons.

2. Arguments:

First, ads are nuisance. They go on for a long time and there are so many. Sometimes there seems
to be more ads than programs.

Second, ads are a bad influence on people. They try to encourage people to buy unhealthy food
like beer, soft drink, candy and chips. And they make people want things they do not really need and
cannot afford.

Finally, the people who make ads have too much say in what programs people watch. That is
because they want to put all their ads on popular programs that a lot of people watch. Some programs
which are not so popular get stopped because they do not attract enough ads, even though those programs
may be someone’s favorite.

3. Recommendation:

For those reasons, we think you TV station should stop showing ads. They interrupt programs.
They are a bad influence on people, and they are sometimes put a stop to people’s favorite shows. We are
sick of ads, and now we mostly watch other channels.
