There is no doubt that television has become an essential part of people`s lives as it has a great influence on people, especially the young ones. Over the past few years teenagers have changed a lot due to the affect of the coloured world network. The new generation can not imagine their lives without TV programmes. It seems to me that teenagers are badly influenced by TV. There are various facts that support this opinion.
Firstly, teens have become "multitasking" as they are unwilling just to watch TV. They prefer combining it with other activities, including social networking, looking from their laptop to the TV screen and back again, or flicking through magazines. Even if children are concentrating on the television, they want to keep up with two programmes at the same time, switching over channels. So teens are not interested in playing and social interaction. Sedentary activities and using a computer cause obesity, heart and eye diseases. Secondly, watching inappropriate programmes leads to children`s cruelty and violence because it is not always easy for them to determine the difference between reality and fantasy.
It is, however, argued that television can be also useful for teenagers. Numerous channels are devoted to particular subjects. So some programmes are really educational, they expand teenagers` outlook and make them knowledgeable.
In conclusion, television influences teenagers badly as they become dependent on it. Their daily lives are to the accompaniment of the TV. So they refuse to live an active life, reading books, communicating with peers and doing sports.
Dear Alex,
I am
writing to tell you about my new house. It is so wonderful! I live on the
outskirts of the town and it is far from the centre. It is two-storeyed
building, surrounded by trees and flowers. It has all modern conveniences:
central heating, gas, electricity, cold and hot water. My home is a place where
I can relax, and I come back with pleasure.
There are three
rooms on the ground floor: a kitchen, a living-room and a hall. The living-room
is the largest and most comfortable room. There is a large window, a TV set, a
sofa, two armchairs and a fireplace. My father likes playing the guitar here. It
is very cozy room where all my family likes to spend time.
On the
first floor there are four rooms: a bathroom and three bedrooms. My room is not
small or large. There is everything what I need: a bed, a wardrobe, a mirror,
an armchair and a table with my computer. Also there is a big aquarium in the
corner of the room.
Now I`d
like to say that there is no place like home. And I`d like to invite you to my
house. I am sure that you will like it as well. It is a place you want to stay
and want to return to.
Alex,
please, pay attention to my new address:
<span />
<span>8 Mostovaya
St, Moscow, 99703, Russia</span>
I am
waiting for you!
Best wishes,
Diana

I see your point, but I think that everything is just the other way around
Yes, I understand, but my opinion is that you should change your mind.
That’s all very interesting, but the problem is that I am not interested in it.
I’m afraid I can’t quite agree with your point of view … I see it in another way.
I’m sorry, but I don't think that's quite correct...and I don`t share your opinion.
Sorry, I just have to disagree with your point and I can`t agree with that.
Well, I think that`s the best point of view.
Here’s the main point I want to raise is that there`s nothing to argue about.
Just to be clear, here is what I mean I have a different position than you have.
So finally,we have nothing in common.
