问题     Reading story books is better for children than watching television or playing computer games. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (2015-12-12)
选项
答案     Reading is a vital skill for children to acquire as all information is available through either the written or spoken word. The ability to read quickly and accurately in order to process information is the key to education at a higher level and through that to many jobs. Those who fail to learn to read are barred from most jobs. As a skill it needs constant practice. Stories demonstrate how ideas can progress towards the ending as well as helping children to understand their cultural heritage. Non-fiction is also important, but, more often a reader will dip into a reference book to find what they need, whereas stories can be pure pleasure. It is vital that parents and teachers do everything possible to ensure that children read widely and with confidence.
    Television too has its part to play in educating children. Children need to understand where the "off button is, and to be able to judge what to watch and when to switch off. There are programmes that show the natural worlds, landscapes, other cultures, music, sport, drama, dance and news from the world, all of which are important. On the other hand, there are programmes for pure fun, and some that are such rubbish one wonders who would watch.
    Parents have to ensure that children use the television well, in an active not passive way.
    Computer games cover a wide spectrum. Some are challenging, demanding high levels of thinking and planning skills, whilst others are pure entertainment. The latter have value in that they encourage children to be at ease and proficient with such machines, and again, children have to learn to balance their time and not become addicted.
    Reading, television and computers all have an important role to play in modern life. Specifically, reading stories is not vital; reading is. Computer literacy is important, not necessarily playing computer games, and although television has many advantages, it could be argued that reading stories is the best use of time.
