现代化与学习
"In the age of television, reading books is not as important as it once was. People can learn as much by watching television as they can by reading books." 在电视机时代,阅读书籍已经没有原来那样重要了。人们从电视上学到的东西丝毫不比从书本中学来的少。
提纲:
1. 电视很重要,但读书仍是我们学习的最好方式。
2. 说明电视的好处。
3.指出读书的不可替代性作用。
a).可以对知识进行系统学习。
b).可以提高阅读和写作能力。
c)读书是种较方便的学习方式。
4.总结。
The speaker asserts that reading books is not as important as it once was because people can learn as much by watching television as they can by reading books. I agree insofar as television plays an important role in our daily lives indeed. However, in most cases, reading books is still a better way of obtaining knowledge so that it can not be replaced by television easily.
Admittedly, television has been more and more popular since its birth. It could offer the latest news and entertain the multitude through the vivid images and pleasant
sounds. For instance, the news and finance program could satisfy the common and the professional needs, ranged from daily lives to international events. And the Discovery program, produced by devoted experts and brave explorers, presents lots of splendid views which common people have no chance to see. Also you may be immersed in some TV play series with extraordinary plots. In fact, all of those benefits come from the television's advantage -- timely, vividly and amusement, which do good to our lives and study.
However, television programs are profit-based mainly rather than educational so that books is still irreplaceable in terms of learning. For one thing, watching TV can not provoke abstract thinking and systematic study to knowledge, especially in a specialized field . As a saying goes, book is the sea of knowledge. Books contain the collective human's experience and wisdom. Without reading, digesting and rumination of papers, speech and novels , we can' understand the scientists' theory well and realize the author's real feelings in most cases. For instance, it's ridiculous to count on someone to have a better understanding of Einstein's relativity just by watching some TV programs.
Secondly, reading books is the best way to improve our communication skills such as reading and writing. You could raise your reading speed and learn the ingenious conception and various writing styles through reading books. On the contrary, you will not become a good reader through television. In the same way, you would not expect to receive a higher score in GRE's AW if you just watch TV rather than turn to books for help.
Last but not least, you can read a book at any time and anywhere once you get it, whereas the televison program could only be seen at certain time. It's common for people to read in the park or on the travel, but it's not the case for television. Thus, reading books offers more convenience for our study.
In sum, although television brings us lots of fun and knowledge, reading books is still the best way of learning so that we must pay much attention to it. |
