Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of
8、war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen.Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, people are more like
9、ly to vote, and so to make their opinion count.Unfortunately, televisions influence has been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They be
10、lieve that the violence they see is normal and acceptable.All educators agree that the “television generations“ are more violent than their parents and grandparents.Also, the young are less patient.

16、Americans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, while the South American often considers the North American to be “cold“ or “distant“ because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking t
17、o. The “eye contact“ provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication.

Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible. “Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the condition
