Watching TV or Listening to the Radio (Thanisa)
In the 20-th century creator invented many different kinds of technologies. Television and the radio are two kinds of the greatest 20th century inventions. What kind of technologies do you like? In my opinion, watching television is better than listening to the radio. There are three reasons why I prefer watching television.
The first reason is that TV media can spread information widely. People can receive words and pictures quickly; moreover, it attracts more attention and replaces both newspaper and radio.
The second reason is that it helps parents taking care of their children. They can do activities with their children; in addition, it helps parents to teach children visually and verbally. The children may get a good example of better language .For example; on television they can see a picture of a cat, and a host can say that is a cat. Children can learn the word “cat” form this picture. The third reason is that you can get a lot of different information from television such as news, history, and geography
On the other hand, listening to the radio has some advantage too. Radio can help you improve your English. If you always listen to the radio, you can pick many new words, and your listening skill will get better; furthermore, radio is a cheap device. You can pay little money and get a new radio of a good quality.
Both television and the radio have some advantages. I would advise people who are good at art listening to the radio more. But for those ones who would like to learn fast use TV.

ReplyDeleteThis is quite a well-organized pararaph Thanisa, so it is easy to follow. You also have good support. I think you could develop this even more- the third reason, for example, could be an entire paragraph. I think you could also develop the conclusion more as well, as I wonder why you think people who are good at art should listen to the radio!
ReplyDeleteI like the illustration too! (Eilidh)
