The Influence of Television and Movies(電視和電影的影響)

　　The Influence of Television and Movies

　　There is no doubt that watching television and movies can influence the way that people behave. Moreover, it seems that people are spending more and more time watching some sort of visual entertainment, whether it is television, a video tape or a DVD. Therefore, the effects of visual media cannot be ignored.

　　One obvious effect of the these media is that watching them induces people to buy certain products. television advertising is widespread and, nowadays, even movie theaters permit advertisements. Another way TV and the movies affect people is that they give people either a broader view of the world or a distorted one, depending on what type of program they watch. Those who watch news and educational program can learn many new things while those who watch primarily entertainment shows may come to believe that most people in the world possess great wealth and good looks. It may make them become dissatisfied with their own lives. Finally, perhaps the most susceptible viewers are children, who may be unable to tell fact from fiction and may try to imitate acts that they see on TV or in the movies.

　　With the every-increasing popularity of video entertainment, society must pay attention to these effects. Television and movies, while entertaining and informative, cannot take the place of real experience.

電視和電影的影響

　　電視和電影無疑會影響人們的行為舉止。此外，人們似乎在花越來越多的時間去觀看一些視覺娛樂節目，無論是電視、錄像帶，或是DVD。因此，視覺每體的影響是不容忽視的。

　　這些每體所造成的最明顯的影響是，人們在觀看之后會被誘使去購買某些產品。現在電視廣告非常普遍，即使是電影院，也允許播放廣告。另外一個電視及電影會影響人們的方式是，它們能使人們對世界有更廣闊的見解或是扭曲的看法，而這取決于人們所觀看的是什么樣的節目。凡是觀看新聞性及教育性節目的人可以學習許多新事物，而主要觀看娛樂節目的觀眾可能就會認為，世界上大多數的人都很有錢，而且長得都很好看，這可能會使他們對自己的生活感到不滿意。最后，兒童可能是最容易受影響的觀眾。他們可能無法分辨真實與虛構，而且可能會試著模仿在電視或電影中所看到的行為。

　　由于視覺娛樂越來越普遍，所以社會大眾必須注意其可能造成的影響。盡管電視及電影兼具娛樂性和知識性，但還是無法取代實際的經驗。
