------题目------
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.

提纲：
1．        让步，电视的确有独到的优势
2．        但无法取代读书：例如a历史读物
3．        b哲学读物
------正文------
Television is among the greatest inventions that change our life manner and learning habit once for all.  The speaker believes learning by watching television could be so sufficient that it is even superior to reading books. Although I concede that television has its exclusive merits in studying, yet I cannot agree that it is capable to replace every role printed books playing in one's learning process.

No doubt, the advent of television greatly enhances people's learning. Just fifty years ago, when television had not owned its popularity, the only way people can know about the outside world where they have never been and never seen was through reading books, which cannot offer them vivid and moving pictures. They had to, by appealing to the written words in books, portray a picture of many wonders and spots in their own mind, which many times is not very accurate. But nowadays, audience can easily get access to vivid sceneries just by sitting in front of a television set. Imagine how architecture students can benefit from television. By watching a video program about the great ancient Greek building Parthenon, they could see the spatial structure with every specific details of, and 360 degree surrounding shots of the whole building. Following the tour guide in television step by step, the students are having a visit just like they were there. On the contrary, merely by reading books, what they can see is only several still pictures and descriptions in words. Television obviously excels books here.  

However, the role of television in learning should not be exaggerated either, especially in contrast with the unique functions of books. To begin with, vivid and exact as TV programs are, they cannot cover all the content that written records can do. For history majors, for instance, TV programs can tell little about the historical events since video camera cannot record what happened before. They have to dive into files, memos, biographies, annuals, in a word, books, to find answers. As precious resources that document our history, historical books can hardly be replaced by modern technologies.

Moreover, television cannot replace books in absorbing the insightful wisdom that philosophers left for us. Television cannot, for example, move Aristotle’s Metaphysics or Politics to screen. Neither can it adapt Immanuel Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason to moving pictures. Great thoughts are usually too abstract to be presented in concrete ways. In addition, efficient learning usually requires intermission for students to contemplate the ideas they just hear. Television programs, however, cannot take care of an individual's pace, and leave no time for audience to stop and think. Besides this, television programs sometimes can even mislead audience in that it is the editor who decides the order and content of a program, while authors’ original ideas might be censored due to the editor’ own taste. To understand philosophers better, therefore, people have to read their great books themselves, take their time thinking carefully, and have a "dialogue" with these sages. Television cannot satisfy this.

In sum, although television does make significant contribution to people's learning, yet it is too hasty to say that they can substitute the role of books. Owing to their special characters, I believer, books will always be indispensable for and long accompany people in their learning process.

Television is among the greatest inventions that change our life mannerstyle and learning habit once for all.  The speaker believes learning by watching television could be so sufficient that it is even superior to reading books. Although I concede that television has its exclusive meritsin study 有点怪 in studying, yet I cannot agree that it is capable to replace every role printed books playing in one's learning process.

No doubt, the advent of television greatly enhances people's learning. Just fifty years ago，when television had not owned its popularity, the only way people can know about the outside world where they have never been and never seen was through reading books,这里有点突兀。应该接着说 plain words。。。 which cannot offer them vivid and moving pictures. They had to, by appealing to the written words in books, portray a picture of many wonders and spots in their own mind, which many times is not very accurate.恩恩。搬到这儿来了。8错。 But nowadays, audience can easily get access to vivid sceneries just by sitting in front of a television set. Imagine how architecture students can benefit from television. By watching a video program about the great ancient Greek building Parthenon, they could see the spatial structure with every specific details of, and 360 degree surrounding shots of the whole building.

On the contrary, merely by reading books, what they can see is only several still pictures and descriptions in words. Television obviously excels books here for it is more…..  
题目问得是哪种方式学的多，这一段开头的时候建议先转折一把，虽然有很多的电视节目。。。。但是书和电视哪个学的多。。。。。。
你没有拿两个比较。直接说的是电视有的地方做不到，书可以做到。至少没看出来as  much  as  的问题，但是好象也没必要这么扣着题目写。不知道你是怎么想的

如果是学历史的学生， 看discovery/history channel也可以获得历史方面的知识。你应该把你的学习，重点强调在    研究方面的学习，而不是单纯的接受知识。

第2点没有留给学生学习的时间和第3点原创遭到改动其实是所有的电视节目都会有的问题，注意和哲学学习的问题的结合。从In addition to own taste,都没有一个地方谈到哲学的问题的说。

实际上你是哪两个特别的例子作为正文的2。3段，
就学习而言，电视节目的数量和范围可能和书不相上下，但涉及的内容肯定娱乐，肤浅多了。恩恩。我是这么想的。

1语言的地方都接受了!

2discovery channal 的那个问题我这么改： For history majors, for instance, TV programs may lead them to historic places, yet they can tell little about the details of historic events, since video camera cannot record what happened before.

3从In addition to own taste,都没有一个地方谈到哲学的问题， 我打算把散落其中的they。。换成philosophers。。。

4。ft，当初想到了历史和哲学分别从广度和深度上说书籍的好处，怎么就没有加上这样的话，然后以两者为例。。。However, the role of television in learning should not be exaggerated either, for televison can substitute books neither in coverage nor in depth.  

5.一如既往的，赞！
