考題評點:本題最近出現是2005年03月19日/2005年12月18日亞太區IELTS G類考題;該題很容易被考生錯誤的簡單處理成一個A1(subject=television),“即看電視甚至是television的利弊討論”,而造成離題;但其實出題者真實的意圖是一道A2的題型即(doing exercise VS. television watching),特別值得一體的是,要考慮到這個考題在思考中心句的“裸奔逛廟法”時,要把“object”具體的處理為 children,而不是任何群體,此題很顯然限制了“裸奔逛廟法”掃描時的思路,但也給考生提供了很好的單一練習部分;
第1步驟:要素確定
題型=A2
Subject:A=watching television; B=doing exercise regularly
Object:children,teenagers ,baby, juvenile, youngster, youth;
可以預期的是因為object已經限定為“人”,所以中心句S+V+O+to do結構將比較多
第2步驟:逛廟法,求得各類型EFFCT
A . watching television作用于children上:
2Arguments
Educational
Instructive programmes achieve their goal through entertaining the viewers. A lot of television programmes introduce people to things they have never thought or heard of before.
üTelevision keeps one informed about current events, allows one to follow the latest developments in science and politics and offers an endless series of programmers which are both instructive and entertaining. Television provides enormous possibilities for education, like school programmes via closed-circuit television.
üTelevision provides special broadcasts for those in TV University, or open university. It also offers specialised subjects like language teaching, sewing, cooking, painting, cosmetics, etc.
Emotional
Television may be a vital factor in holding a family together where there are,
üeconomic problems and parents and children seem at breaking point.
2Counter-arguments
SEE A TEMPLE
Television is a great time-waster. Television takes up too much of our time. People have grown addicted to television, often neglecting the necessary and more important things like meals, sleep and even work.
üWe no longer have enough time for hobbies, entertaining activities, and other outside amusement like theatres, cinemas, sports, etc.
Educational
Television makes the viewer completely passive because everything is presented to him without any effort on his part. Television is to blame for the fact that children take longer to learn to read these days and barely see the point at all of acquiring the skill.
üWhat the viewer receives from television is nothing but second-hand experience. He is completely cut off from the real world.
üTelevision stations operate as profit enterprises. Consequently, television programs are profit-based, and their commercial orientation drives them to be entertaining more so than education, for the latter are typically less profitable
üThe monster, i.e. television, demands absolute silence and attention. No one dares to open his mouth during a programme.
üNowadays, there are numerous programs on TV which are on the verge of making money by showing nothing other than cheap sex.
Emotional
Television prevents people from communicating with each other. It has done a lot of harm to the relationship between family members.
üA lot of parents use television as a pacifier for their children. They put their children in front of the set and don't care whether the children are exposed to rubbishy commercials or spectacles of violence as long as the children are quiet. Some people think television leads to violence, immorality, and greed for possessions.
