　　The Effects of Television on Communication

　　There is no doubt that television has greatly changed people’s lives. After its invention, it became an almost indispensable part of most households within the space of just a few years. Nowadays, many families have two or even three television sets so that every member of the family can watch what he wants whenever he wants. In my opinion, this has significantly reduced the amount of time that family and friends spend communicating with each other.

　　Before the invention of television, people spent their leisure time in more active and social pursuits. They often played cards or other games, listened to the radio together or went out to see friends. But now television is widely available and it offers a variety of program choices that appeal to almost every interest. People no longer have to look to others for entertainment. Also, television can be like a sedative. Studies have shown that watching a great deal of television makes people more passive. Finally, people are simply watching increasing amounts of television. And with two or three TV sets in the house, there is no need for them to even watch it together.

　　Although television has reduced the amount of time that family and friends spend together, it doesn’t have to be this way. People can make the choice to turn off the TV and do something more active. Or, if they really want to watch TV, they can find a thought-provoking program that they would all like to watch and discuss afterwards.

　　譯文

　　電視已經(jīng)大大地改變了人們的生活，這一點(diǎn)是毋庸置疑的。電視在其發(fā)明后的短短幾年內(nèi)幾乎成為大多數(shù)家庭中不可或缺的一部分?，F(xiàn)在許多家庭擁有兩臺甚至三臺電視機(jī)，每個家庭成員隨時可以看自己想看的節(jié)目。我認(rèn)為這樣已使得家人和朋友之間溝通的時間大為減少。

　　在電視發(fā)明之前，人們有空就會做一些比較積極的消遣，并進(jìn)行社交活動。人們會經(jīng)常玩撲克牌或其他游戲，一起聽收音機(jī)或出去拜訪朋友。但是現(xiàn)在電視很普及，有各式各樣的節(jié)目可供選擇，幾乎能讓每個人都很感興趣，于是人們便不再尋求其他的娛樂。而且，電視就好像鎮(zhèn)靜劑一樣。有研究指出，觀看大量的電視節(jié)目會讓人變得比較消極。最后，人們看電視的時間變得越來越多，而且有兩臺或三臺電視機(jī)的家庭，其家人甚至都不在一起看電視。 雖然電視已使家人和朋友之間相聚的時間變少，但這并非是必然的結(jié)果。人們可以選擇關(guān)上電視，去從事一些更積極的活動?；蛘呷绻娴南肟措娨?，也可以找一個大家都想看的思考性節(jié)目，看完之后可以一起討論。
