New stories on TV and in newspapers are very often accompanied by pictures. Some people say that these pictures are more effective than words. What is your opinion about this?

#stories #tv #newspapers #pictures #people
Nowadays, the advanced technology of
entertainment
 provides more effects by using photographs on
TV
 and in
newspapers
. Individuals feel that pictures make the
content
 easier to understand than words. In
this
 essay, I will discuss the benefits of using
images
 in
newspapers
 and share my own opinion.
To begin
 with, the obvious benefit is the photo in
newspapers
 makes
stories
 looks more attractive and easy to read. Because people who see the photo are easier to understand the
content
 of
stories
, which means they don't need to read every word.
Moreover
, using the image on
TV
 and in
newspapers
also
 reduce the opportunity of misleading the
content
 on it, because people always have their own understanding about the meaning of sentences and the auditor absolutely doesn't want it to happen.
Therefore
, the large number of
images
 used in
newspapers
 and on
TV
 become a new trend of
entertainment
.
However
, there are some
images
 that shouldn't be published on
TV
 and in
newspapers
.
For example
,
images
 that include violent and sexual
content
 are not suitable to be attached in the newspaper. Because those
images
 can be read and watched by a group of people whose age is under eighteen.
Therefore
,
entertainment
 companies should double confirm the photos before
newspapers
 or
TV
stories
 published them to the public. In conclusion, I strongly believe
newspapers
 and
TV
stories
 become more attractive because of using a large number of
images
 and movie special effects.
However
, aiming to provide a good watching and reading experience for audiences,
entertainment
 companies should pay more attention to public perception by running the regulation of
images
.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
