Many boys and girls love to watch TV. They spend many hours a day in front of the TV sets. But many parents let their children watch TV only in special time. TV shows aren't like books or movies. There are many types of shows, such as sitcoms, soap operas, sports shows, fashion shows, etc. A child can learn good things and bad things from them. Some shows help children to understand the news all over the world. Children don't have to go to the zoo to see animals. Boys and girls can see sitcoms, sports shows and game shows at home. Some shows teach children how to cook or how to use tools(工具). Many boys and girls think it is fun to watch TV, but it is also fun to read books, friends to play games or to visit.
