Movies and televisions’ effect on young people’s behavior Watching movies and televisions are two important ways that people kill their spare time in. Both of them are absorbing to young people who always spent several hours everyday on watching them instead of studying and having rest. In my opinion, young people should learn to control their desire to watch them though under some situations, watching movies and televisions actually have some good effect on the young people. To begin with, we must admit that watching movies and television always waste time so much that there always no time left for young people to take care of their studies. With the development of the movie industry and TV’s mature, movies and televisions become more and more plentiful and absorbing. The movies are longer than before and TV series bring out much more frequently. However, according to my experience with many excellent students who are always considered intelligent by both teachers and other students, movies and television bring more advantages to young people who often spend much time on them. Firstly, watching various kinds of movies and televisions conducted by different countries with different cultures always give young people insight into cultures they had never seen before. Desperate Housewife, which is my favorite TV series, looks like a funny story about four women. However, as I concerned, it is a serious social problem and give me a truly view in this kind of people’s daily life. Secondly, by telling specific stories based on real daily life, movies and televisions could also train young people to recognize and understand other people. For instance, the Mulholland Drive and Brokeback Mountain changed my view on gays and now I can accept their behaviors which I definitely could not understand. Thirdly, a curious phenomena what I discovered is that those young people have extra ability on understanding not only articles and compositions but also course such as mathematic and chemistry. Therefore, in my perspective, movies and televisions have much more advantages and young people should try to spend more time on them. |
