Television is changing people’s lives quite dramatically. They are sleeping less, reading less, communicating less with their families. In a countrywide survey, a tenth of television viewers have admitted that the care of children and the elderly is getting neglected. While television has contributed to the popularity of games and sports, ironically enough, children have reported that they play less.
Television has increased the general knowledge of children, in particular their knowledge of the various products being advertised. The survey shows that hardly any children are watching educational programmes. The parents interviewed said their children’s studies were affected. Many parents had cut off cable TV to reduce the distraction for the children.
Questions :
(a) Why do the parents feel that their children’s studies are affected while television is increasing their general
knowledge ?
(b) What changes do we notice in the lives of the people under the influence of television ?

5. Write a paragraph on any one of the following in about 60-70 words:
(i) Honesty is the best policy
(ii) Pollution
(iii) Spring Season
(iv) Corruption
(v) Discipline
Ans.
(i) Honesty is the best policy
Man is a bundle of virtues and vices. Honesty is a good human quality. An honest man never falls a victim to greed or
selfishness. Though he has to lead a hard life of acute poverty yet he remains contented.
Honesty is the greatest blessing of God. The path of honesty is the path of thorns. An honest man is occasionally put to severe tests and trials.
He is nicknamed as a coward or hypocrite. The story of God Mercury and the Woodcutter teaches us that honesty alone is the best policy. Our country can progress only if all her citizens become honest in thoughts, words and deeds. A dishonest fellow is always held in contempt.
(ii) Pollution
We are living in an age of pollution. Everything around us is polluted. The air we breathe in, the food we eat, the water we drink, all are polluted. But the most dangerous type of pollution today is environmental pollution. This is the worst danger that man faces today. Scientists and biologists have listed the dangers of environmental pollution.
The fall out from nuclear testing increases the incidence of cancer. The wide-spread use of insecticides and nitrogen fertilizers has contaminated food and surface waters.
The increasing use of synthetic detergents has contaminated water supplies. Thus environment pollution has endangered the very existence of all life forms including human.
(iii) Spring Season
In India we have six seasons in a year. Of these spring season is the best. In summer we perspire, in winter we shiver. But during spring season it is neither cold nor so hot. It is the season which suits the poor and the rich alike. Trees come back to life and flowers blossom. The birds are happy and sing bsweetly.
The air is filled with fragrance. Everything looks fresh and lively. Such an atmosphere certainly has good effects on human beings. This is why spring season is called the queen of all seasons.
(iv) Corruption
Corruption is a form of pollution, or even worse. It is no less than terrorism. It is the rust which weakens the joints of a
nation internally. A corrupt nation is bound to have a collapse some day. India, according to a survey is the seventh most
corrupt nation of the world.
Some developed countries, surprisingly, are ahead of us in line. Politicians are generally, blamed for this menace. But why politicians alone, each one of us is responsible for this sorry state—the one who bribes is as corrupt as the one who is bribed. Let us put an end to it once for all.
(v) Discipline
Discipline is necessary in every walk of life. In fact discipline adds to our success. Discipline is the most important factor
behind the development of any nation.
It is essential in schools. Students must be disciplined because they are the future citizens of their country. A disciplined army wins the battle.
A factory cannot produce a lot of goods if the workers are not systematic in their work. Without discipline a nation cannot make progress. So discipline is absolutely necessary for life.
