Do you agree or disagree? "Television has hindered people’s ability to communicate with one another”.

soch 001 001

Television takes up a lot of time in people’s lives. We watch different programs that give us important information about what is happening in the world and at the same time giving us lots of entertainment. Some people say that because of this people don’t have any time to communicate with each other. Whereas others say that if you want to communicate with other people you can always find the time for this.

In my opinion, if a person really wants to communicate with his friends, he will find the time for it. I really love watching different TV series but when my friends go somewhere I always go with them. First things first, I say to myself and do what I have to do. I realize that communication with people I like is the most important thing for me so I act accordingly.

Others say, television does hinder our communication skills between one another. There are a lot of interesting programs that people prefer to watch instead of being social and communicating with each other. There are also plenty of TV series that take up your free time because they are really gripping and you can not stop watching them.

There will always be so called important things to do. I call them routine. I think that one should have priorities or hierarchy of the important things to do. Otherwise not really important things like television will consume all your time.

soch 001 005

In conclusion I would like to say that television might really hurt your ability to communicate with other people. But I also think that we can control it and not become addicted to it. There is always a big temptation to fall into this trap but we should learn how to manage and resist these urges.

TOEFL Essay 01

Why do people study in college?

soch 001 001

Some people say that studying in college is very important whereas others say that it’s just waste of time and money.

soch 001 002

I think there are a few reasons to study in college. First one needs to have a college education to become a good specialist. People study in college to prepare themselves for their future jobs. There is an opinion that good education can get you a good job that pays a lot of money. It might be the foundation for a successful and happy life. It’s also a way to make a lot of friends and learn how to study.

soch 001 003

Other people say that Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and others who didn’t graduate from college still became great innovators and businessmen. Why should one study things that are not really useful, instead of doing the things that one wants to do.

soch 001 004

In my opinion, people like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates are more the exception than the rule. We can see a lot more examples of people who got a good education and went on to find a good job and made a lot of money.

soch 001 005

So I believe that studying in college is mighty important. You make friends, develop good skills and prepare yourself for work. Remembering the immortal words of Steve Jobs, “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.” I think that that can also be applied to studying in college.
