Watching too many cartoons can block children’s imagination and when writing stories children get ideas from programmes which also block imagination.Discuss.

Read Study Guide Part 4, sections 2 and 3. ( I will upload this for you ).

Describe the purpose and generic structure of the practice text; that is, identify the genre and the major stages in the text. Use the paragraph (see below) numbers to explain your answer.

Answering these questions may help:

a) Why did the writer write this text?

b) Is the writer aiming at a particular ‘text type’ or genre e.g. letter, set of instructions, discussion essay etc.?

c) Is the structure/staging of the essay consistent with the target genre? In other words, how successful has the writer been in achieving the target genre?

Paragraph:

1 All children watch TV but maybe it’s not such a good thing.

2 On one hand, television can teach you lots of things, like the alphabet and maths. Sesame Street is really popular and there are lots of other programmes which I think are good and you can learn things from them.

3 Nevertheless, children’s TV makes kids think it’s cool to swear and fight, which leads to accidents from them fighting.

4 Nontheless, children become addicted to the television. They stay inside all day which is just lazy and unhealthy. This makes children overweight.

5 Watching too many cartoons can block children’s imagination and when writing stories children get ideas from programmes which also block imagination.

6 However, we might start watching adult TV if there was no more kids TV. This could show swearing and other things of that sort.

7 On the other hand, television is a great source of employment. It provides work for everyone. In addition children can improve acting skills and adults can work and have fun too.

8 However, television is also a social thing. People talk about programmes the next day with friends and I like seeing what my friends think about things. And having discussions improves skills in school.

9 In conclusion, many people will have their say as there are plenty of arguments on both sides.
