Most children like to watch cartoons on TV because of the funny characters and the bright colors. But is it good for children to watch cartoons on TV?
Some people think it leaves nothing for children to imagine when they are watching cartoons on TV. They can see the different characters so they need not imagine the appearance of a character or any situation in the cartoon. But when reading a book, he has to imagine how the different characters look like.He has to imagine a place or a situation described in the story he is reading, so the imaginative power of the child improves.
Very little children may not be able to read books. But they will be happy to watch TV, especially watch cartoons. Watching cartoons will improve their language ability. As most of the cartoons are in English, watching them will improve their English. They will learn to understand the conversations between others. Their vocabulary will get improved. They will learn how to pronounce different words. Their spoken English will also get greatly improved.These are the advantages(好处) of watching cartoons.
But there should be a limit(限制) to everything. Parents should control their children's time on TV. However, you cannot keep children from watching TV completely. It will only do more harm than good.
My name is Jenny. I have been volunteering for about 16 years. I got a serious illness so I had to stop working. My sister suggested that I should do voluntary work which I had never thought of before.
I then decided to start volunteering in a hospital. The volunteers were making a team and chatting and I thought I'd like to help patients in that way too. In the Chapel (小礼拜堂), we take it in turns to do prayers (祈祷) for patients and we each have a room where we go and talk to patients. In the hospital, I often make tea and speak to patients especially if I see the patients who are sitting there on their own or don't have visitors. I go to the Chapel every Wednesday afternoon and go to work in the hospital on the second Monday in a month.
There are so many good things about volunteering — meeting a lot of new people and building a friendship with them. I get as much as the patients do. I feel useful now and it's terrific to think I am making a difference to somebody. Some people are looking forward to seeing you the next week. Volunteering is the best thing I've ever done.
Charles Chaplin was born in London on April 16, 1889. His parents were music hall actors. The Chaplin family were very poor, and life was difficult in London. Charlie, as he was called, used to do his mother's job in the theatre when she was ill.
When he was only 17 years old, Chaplin got his first real job as an actor. What he did was to do silly things to make people laugh in the theatre. Seven years later he went to the USA. And over the next four years, he formed his own way of art. He developed the character(角色) of a homeless gentleman which became very popular.
From the 1920s to the 1950s, Chaplin made his most famous films. The film Modern Times (1936) shows his care about the modern industry workers. Many of his films describe the poor life and hard time of the working people during that period.
Although Charlie Chaplin was British, he lived in the USA until 1953. But he never got US nationality. Then Chaplin, his wife and his five children had to move to Switzerland where he lived until he died. When he was 83 years old, he won his only Oscar for the music he wrote for the film Limelight. He was named Sir Charles Chaplin at the age of 85. Charlie Chaplin died in Switzerland on December 25th, 1977.
