Is TV good for young people? People have different opinions about whether it is good for young people to watch television I believe that TV can have both advantages and disadvantages for young people Firstly, one advantage that TV has is that young people can learn a lot of information from it Programmes like the news and documentaries provide them with a lot of information about what is happening in the world, about history, technology, nature and many other things However, children spend time watching when they could be doing something more interesting like reading a book or talking to members of their family or going out with friends There are good things and bad things about TV for young people _ T Some TV programmes can inform young people T about different things _ The writer says TV programmes about books F are interesting _ F The writer suggests TV is the best way to relax _ TV may provide young people with a topic to T talk about _ F The writer thinks TV mostly has advantages _ ( _ / marks) Secondly, TV gives young people a way to relax and entertain themselves There are many light programmes on TV like quiz shows, comedies and sport such as football which many young people enjoy watching after a hard day studying Although doing this can be enjoyable, it is usually better for young people to use their time in a better way For example, taking some exercise also helps people relax, and it is much healthier Thirdly, some people believe that watching TV gives young people something to talk about, especially if they watch programmes made for their age group However, isn’t it more fun if young people make their own entertainment? For example, getting together and going to the cinema or a cafe or just for a walk will allow young people to be active while enjoying themselves ✂ In conclusion, although I believe that young people enjoy watching TV and that it can be informative, I don’t think it is good for them It is better for young people not to watch a lot of TV so that they can take exercise or spend time with their family or friends 65 M04_TOPS_PT_03GRC_7945_U04.indd 65 5/5/09 16:06:40 Write an essay with the title: ‘Is TV the best way for young people to enjoy themselves and get information?’ Choose two advantages and two disadvantages from below to use in your essay: • TV has a lot of informative programmes • You can get more information from the Internet or a library • TV helps people relax • Other ways of relaxing are healthier or more fun than TV • TV provides young people with entertainment • There is better entertainment for young people than TV Students’ own answers ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ( _ / 10 marks) ✂ ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… 66 M04_TOPS_PT_03GRC_7945_U04.indd 66 5/5/09 16:06:44 M S IO ISS N End-of-Year Test B Name Class _ Date _ Score: / 50 marks Complete the sentences Use these words appointment bone cartoonist fashionable shoulder search unicorn She loves clothes and always buys fashionable ones Terry broke a bone in his hand and had to go to hospital In the fairytale, he rode a unicorn appointment Judith made a(n) to see her doctor A cartoonist draws funny pictures for a newspaper Use the Internet to search for the information you want The pirate had a parrot sitting on his shoulder Complete the words The n eck is where the head meets the shoulders Why are you shouting?
