Harmful effects of watching TV too long |
Dear learner, watching TV too much (for a long time) is not only harmful to studies but also to health. We all know that. But some of our younger family members and friends do not understand that. We must mention or write a letter to them on the Cons of watching TV too much. So here are some letters on the bad effects of watching TV. Read them carefully and learn more about letter writing.
Q. Write a letter to your younger sister not to watch TV too much.
Letter on Watching TV Too Much
Dear Shreya,
I have learnt from your mother's letter that you spend a good deal of your time watching TV. I do not want to say that watching TV is altogether bad or no one should see it. It is a good medium of education and instruction, true but, too much of nothing however, is good when you spend your time on TV. You watch your valuable time which ought to have been spent on studies. You have become addicted to TV. You fail to focus your attention on your lessons. Moreover, most of the TV programs are of poor quality and of bad taste. They tell upon the morals of young students. They absorb and affect the young mind the most. Worst of all, you will likely lose the power of your eyesight. Think of your career and future.
Write to me by return of post that you have stopped watching TV. You may see it only during the time you take your meal at night, that too if mother permits.
Your brother,
Arghya
Q2. Write a letter to your friend advising him not to watch TV too much.
Letter on not to watch TV for a long time
Dear Nisith,
I have learnt from your mother that you have been watching TV too much in recent days. You are addicted to it. It was a discomfort to me hearing about something bad about you. As a friend, I am writing this letter suggesting you not to watch TV for a long time. There are a lot of harmful effects that play upon you. You are a good student everybody is proud of you but when I see your parents are sorry about your behaviour it hurts me too.
The most important thing that you are losing, is your valuable time. It is the time to build your career and your health. So why are you spending so much time on TV? Focus on your career and your health. A good alternative to passing time is physical exercise. Why don't you go to the playground for physical exercise? You can meet other friends and classmates there. Spending quality time with friends not only benefits your mind but also creates a bond with friends. You know, what you are watching on TV might look nice but in reality, they are of poor quality and of bad taste. They only consume your time. Another important aspect of watching TV too long is that it destroys your eyesight. Watching too much TV May worsen your eyesight.
So my honest advice is that you should rather go to the field or play with your cousin at home instead of watching TV for a long time. It is surely an addiction and needs to be avoided.
Your loving friend,
Ajay
