5 Listening THE USE OF TELEVISION The word television comes from the Greek word “tele” which means “far”,and the Latin word “visio”-“seeing”. We know television to be widely used both in everyday life, indu- stry, scientific work, ets. It’s hard to admit the fact that the majority of people even didn’t know about the existence of television in the middle of the last century. Nowadays there are many TV centres in the world that televise different broadcasts, news, the press round-up, music and children’s programmes, the weather forecasts, sports programmes, youth programmes, feature movies, documentaries, ets. The network of TV channel is varied. You can choose the channel to your taste-’’Discovery”, “Cartoon Network”, “Animal Planet’’, ’’Fashion TV” and others. Television now plays an important role in our life. It is difficult to say if it is good or bad for us. It is clear that television has advantages and disadvantages.Television keeps people well informed, helps us to know more about the life in other lands, enriches our knowledge. In the first place television is an entertainment. But it is not only a convenient entertainment. For a family of three, four or five, for example, it is more convenient and less expensive to sit comfortably at home than to go out to find entertainment in other places. They don't have to pay for expensive seats at the theatre or the cinema. They turn on the TV set and can see interesting films, concerts, football matches. But some people think that it's bad to watch TV, it is waste of time. Those who watch TV need do nothing. We are passive and lazy when we watch TV. The television screen itself has got a terrible effect. We watch TV every evening, and it begins to dominate our lives. But once your television set has broken down and you suddenly find out that you have got far more time to do different things, and even start to talk to one another again. There are other arguments for and against television. Very often the programmes are bad. At the same time it is very convenient for old people. But is it good for our children?
