In recent years, advertisers or reporters who often use
pictures
 on TV and in newspapers accompanied by their new stories have become increasingly popular around the world, and some
people
 argue that these
pictures
 are more effective than
words
.
While
 I agree that if
pictures
 replaced some
words
people
 will love to read.
However
, I believe that everything has positive and negative. on one hand, the option to picture replaced the
words
 is attractive for several reasons. Many
people
 love to watch TV or read newspapers with
pictures
. In
this
 way, they can become enjoyable, and they will be able to keep watch and read until the end. In terms of using
pictures
 better than
words
, which is become a diversification and consumable.
people
 will have the chance to buy something from TV or newspapers.
This
 may lead to some products becoming a certain extent salable.
On the other hand
, I believe that it is more beneficial to keep using
words
 to present new stories or advertisements.
Firstly
, if there only
pictures
 it can not tell
people
 what are they exactly want to present.
For example
, it is impossible to become read an instruction without any
words
.
As a result
, advertisers and reporters who want to present essential details have to use
words
, because it is easy to understand.
Secondly
, if
people
 bought a book they are only
pictures
 on it, they will consider
this
 book suitable for children. In conclusion, for the reasons mentioned above, it seems to me that
people
 are more likely to be enjoyable and non-boring if they make stories with
words
 and
pictures
