    Is Television Good or Bad for
    People?
    Some people claim that television is a best friend,
    while others think of television as the root of all
    evil. Many people blame the television for
    society's violence and misinformation, while
    others see it as a rich resource for education
    and entertainment. Who is right? For those who
    are asking this question, you will find the costs
    and benefits of watching television in the
    following paragraphs.
    • In this busy, expensive life, television is an
    easy and cheap source of entertainment
    and information. From some
    entertainments provided by televisions’
    channel we can relax ourselves after
    having a hand-full day of work. By
    watching international news, we will
    always be up-to-date with breaking news
    around the world. Do-it-yourself shows can
    also give us easy access to do many
    interesting activities in our lives.
    • However, sex, crime, and violence
    contents in television may have
    negative effects on impressionable
    children. Children who are exposed
    violent acts continuously are more
    likely to display violent behavior in
    their lives. Ongoing studies have
    shown a lasting correlation between
    watching violence on television in
    childhood and aggression that
    continues into adulthood.
    Moreover, watching too much television is
    not good for your health and makes you
    antisocial. Studies have shown that
    excessive TV watching (more than 3 hours a
    day) can contribute to sleep difficulties,
    behavior problems, lower grades, and other
    health issues. Watching television fills the
    time a person might have spent doing
    important, enriching things like interacting
    socially with other human beings, being
    physically active, discovering the outdoors,
    etc.
    Like other modern technologies,
    television has both advantage
    and disadvantage. Watching
    television wisely and not to be
    too dependent to it are the ways
    to get more benefits from
    watching television.
    Apakah televisi Baik atau
    Buruk untuk Manusia?
    Beberapa orang mengklaim bahwa televisi adalah
    teman terbaik, sementara yang lain berpikir
    televisi adalah akar dari segala kejahatan.
    Banyak orang menyalahkan televisi untuk
    kekerasan yang terjadi pada masyarakat dan
    informasi yang salah untuk masyarakat,
    sementara yang lain melihatnya sebagai sumber
    informasi yang kaya dalam bidang pendidikan
    dan hiburan. Siapa yang benar? Bagi mereka
    yang mengajukan pertanyaan ini, Anda akan
    menemukan kerugian dan manfaat dari
    menonton televisi pada paragraf berikut.
    Dalam kehidupan yang sibuk dan mahal ini,
    televisi merupakan sumber hiburan dan
    informasi yang mudah dan murah. Darri
    beberapa hiburan yang disediakan oleh
    saluran-salurantelevisi kita dapat bersantai
    diri setelah menjalani hari-hari yang sibuk
    dengan bekerja. Dengan menonton berita
    internasional, kita akan selalu up-to-
    datedengan berita di seluruh dunia.
    Acara Do-it-yourself (tips dan trik yang dapat
    dilakukan sendiri) juga dapat memberi kita
    akses mudah untuk melakukan banyak
    kegiatan yang menarik dalam hidup kita.
    Namun, muatan seks, kejahatan, dan
    kekerasan di televisi mungkin memiliki efek
    negatif yang dapat mempengaruhi anak-
    anak. Anak-anak yang terpapar tayangan
    tindak kekerasan terus-menerus lebih
    cenderung menampilkan perilaku kekerasan
    dalam kehidupan mereka. Studi yang
    sedang berlangsung menunjukkan korelasi
    yang erat antara menonton kekerasan di
    televisi di masa kecil dan tindakan agresif
    yang berlanjut sampai dewasa.
    Selain itu, terlalu banyak menonton televise
    juga tidak baik untuk kesehatan Anda dan
    membuat Anda antisosial. Penelitian telah
    menunjukkan bahwa menonton TV secara
    berlebihan (lebih dari 3 jam sehari) dapat
    berkontribusi untuk kesulitan tidur, masalah
    perilaku, nilai yang lebih rendah, dan
    masalah kesehatan lainnya. Menonton
    televisi menyita waktu seseorang yang
    mungkin saja dapat dihabiskan dengan
    melakukan hal-hal penting, memperbanyak
    hal-hal seperti berinteraksi sosial dengan
    orang lain, aktif secara fisik, menjelajahi
    Seperti teknologi modern lainnya, televisi
    memiliki baik keuntungan dan kerugian.
    Menonton televisi dengan bijaksana dan
    tidak terlalu tergantung padanya adalah
    cara untuk mendapatkan lebih banyak
    manfaat dari menonton televisi.
