People who read for pleasure in their free time have better imagination than those who prefer to watch TV. To what extend do you agree or disagree.

It is true that, nowadays there has been a huge rise in reading for pleasure. In fact, I strongly believe that reading different kinds of books and novels improves imagination skills than watching
television
for the two reasons.
Firstly
, by reading books increase the creativity in the
mind
. While I concede that watching
television
has some effects on the
mind
, but the problem is that watching TV spoils your eyes
by
Suggestion
from
its rays. A recent research shows that people who watch
television
for a number of hours tend to get eyesight.
Therefore
, it's much better to read than watching and reading help you to gain logical thinking, which leads to a great imagination. Another reason for regular readers is they improve their
mind
mapping and cognitive skills.
Although
I knowledge that
television
has more visuals than any book, but you cannot carry your
television
with you anywhere with you than a book.
Moreover
, books are very handy and light in weight.
As a result
, it's much beneficial to read and build visuals in the
mind
than watching any screen. The final reason is e-books which are easily available online and can be stored in e-readers. In fact,
this
technology helps you to store a hundred of books in one device and carry anywhere with you and read where ever you want. A good example of
this
is an Amazon e-reader. Which provides all the facilities required by any readers. In short, not only does books help you to develop creativity and
mind
mapping techniques, but it
also
available online in the form of e-book.
Therefore
,
although
, I acknowledge that watching
television
do have some impact, but I personally believe books are much advantageous.
