forgetting about reality for a few hours. Most people like to watch comedy programmes or game shows,
which do not require too much concentration. However, there are also many people who see TV
differently. They use it to find out about the outside world, as a source of information. They switch it on
when it’s time for the news or when there is a documentary on an interesting subject. Some people even
learn history and literature by watching historical dramas or adaptations of novels. A thirteen-year-old
girl who was found to have a very good general knowledge and was thought to read a lot said, “But I
learnt it all from TV”. This is one interesting advantage of TV that many parents overlook .
