My tutor the Tv

Who says that the television is beastly as it only potrays the evils of the world through that little screen it has.
In fact, the television could widen our horizons by opening the world out to us. In addition, the television also permits us to reach large numbers of people on a national or regional level in a short period of time. Television being an image-building and visual medium, also offers the ability to convey messages with sight, sound and motion horizons which appeals to our senses.
For Ong Soh Chin, a senior writer, she believes that the television taught her no rules but good pronounciation and the grasp of english language.
Today, educational TV programmes have become more and more sophisticated. Very soon, the television will replace the medium of books in schools.

There is no doubt that television is a great teaching tool and that it is here to stay judging from the millions of dollars pumped into r&d for products such as the high-definition television.

However it's content can often be questionable and in some cases detrimental. I say we exercise caution as it can be a double edged sword. It could sharpen you or hurt you.
