Many people have forgotten what the world was like before TV. But today it has
become an integral part of our lives. No medium can compare with TV as a means of
information, entertainment and education. TV now plays such an important role in so
many people’s lives that it is essential for us to try to decide (31)_______ it is bad or
good.
First of all, TV is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a
(32)_______ cheap one. For a family of 4, for example, it is more convenient as well
as cheaper to sit comfortably at home than to go out. They don’t have to pay for
expensive tickets. All they have to do is to turn on TV and they can see films, political
discussions and the latest exciting football matches. Some people say that this is fist
where the danger lies. The TV viewers need do nothing: they (33)______ no choices,
they’re completely passive and don’t even use their legs.
TV, people often say, informs about current events and the latest developments in
science and politics. A lot of good films, music programs have appeared recently on
TV. (34)_______ here again there is a danger. We get to like watching TV so much
that it begins to dominate our lives. A friend of mine told me that when his TV set
broke he and his family suddenly found that they had much more time to do things.
The most important thing which is really criticizing is poor quality of the programs
and its harmful effect on children. For example the film “Natural Born Killers” teaches
children to kill and there was one accident in France when a group of teenagers kill
their parents.
There are many arguments for and against TV. I think we must understand that TV in
itself is neither good (35)______ bad. TV is as good or as bad as we make it.

The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although
science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same
time, made many food unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps 80 percent
of all human illnesses are related to diet and 40 percent of cancer is related to diet as
well, especially cancer of colon. People of different cultures are more prone to contact
certain illnesses because of the characteristic foods they consume.
That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government
researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites (common used to preserve color in meats)
as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives
remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which
ingredients on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful.
The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to
cattle and poultry, and because of this , penicillin has been found in the milk of treated
cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal
purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals
in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices
continue.
A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of
detrimental substances we ingest. Sometimes well-meaning farmers or others who do
not realize the consequences add these substances to food without our knowledge.
