#people #television #relationship #members

It is thought by some members of society that television destroys close relationships among family individuals. I partially agree with

this

opinion.

To begin

with, sometimes TV can gather all members of the family in front of a screen, making them sit together and enjoy the film.

In other words

, some people like to find some interesting movies and watch them in presence of their relatives as it makes the film even more intriguing.

For instance

, in the film named alone at home,it is shown that everyone in that big family watches the television in the evenings. It will contribute to making individuals of the family closer to each other.

On the other hand

, when choosing a TV programme some disputes leading to alienation between individuals of one family may appear. As everyone has his own interests there is a difference in the preferences of programs.

For example

, the difference between the child's and grandparents' preferences is enormous.

As a result

one of the relatives can take offence

consequently

there will be a deterioration in relations between them, In conclusion, television can damage those close relations between family members as well as make them cohesive. I believe that there is no serious influence of TV on relationships between people but there is a big difference in the way everyone uses it.

You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: Is freedom of speech necessary in a free society? Give reasons for your answer. Agree or Disagree Write at least 250 words.
In the last decade, there has been considerable debate over the role of free speech in a free society. Some object to absolute freedom of speech. Others advocate free speech, arguing that freedom of speech is the single most important political right of citizens in a civilized society. Whilst I believe that there are strong arguments on both sides, I would suggest that freedom of speech should be protected in all but extreme circumstances.

Many countries have compulsory military service for men after they leave school. I would be a good idea for all countries to adopt this system for men and possibly women.
Obligatory military service is often seen in a conflict-prone country or a country that requires stronger military power such as South Korea, North Korea, Thailand, and Rusia. In my point of view, I agree with this stance because by having supporting military forces a country will be more ready when they face an urgent situation that requires supporting troops to get into the war area and this mandatory military service will directly increase someone's devotion to their country.
