Some people believe that people who read books can develop more imagination and language skills than those who prefer to watch TV. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Some people are of the view that it is more beneficial for people to read books, because they lead to enhance more creativity and linguistic abilities than watching television. I partly agree with this assertion, while reading has several advantages in these areas, I also believe that watching TV can contribute positively to imagination and language development in its own right. There are various reasons why it might be considered beneficial for people to read books. Firstly, reading books can help them to improve their imaginative thinking. If readers delve into books, they can visualise settings, characters, events or mental images based on the descriptions provided by the author. For example, historical or romantic fiction allows bookworms to form their own images of events which can lead to a deeper personal connection with the work. Secondly, by reading individuals can enhance their vocabulary and language skills. Literary works frequently include varied language styles, complex sentence and structures which help people to improve linguistic skills. I, on the other hand, consider that watching tv confers many advantages to young minds. Primarily, many modern shows, particularly those aimed at younger audiences, can stimulate imagination. For instances, educational programs encourage viewers to think creatively and critically. Enhanced imagination, in turn, is critical for their overall mental development. More than just improving their imagination, watching television can be means of exposure to different language and culture. By watching visual materials on tv, people can learn different linguistic expressions, idiomatic phrases as well as cultural context. At a final point, watching television can aid language learners by providing visual cues alongside spoken words. In conclusion, while I partly agree with those who consider that reading books cultivates greater imagination and language skills compared to watching TV. I believe that both activities can exist valuable tools for personal growth. Download 13.5 Kb. Share with your friends:
