雅思TASK2大作文模拟题:审查制度 Censorship

Some people think that if children watch violent images on television, they may try to copy the things they see. As a result, they could behave more violently towards other people. While it is sometimes true that children love to copy some of the violence they see in the games they play, they generally know the difference between real and imaginary violence. For example, some children love kung fu movies and television shows. They often like to play at fighting each other and they copy the scenes they watch on TV. Yet, most of these children do not grow up to be violent. Another argument against allowing children to watch violent TV programmes is that these programmes could make them frightened, or give them nightmares. However, there is a difference between imaginary violence, such as cartoons, and real violence, such as police dramas or the TV news. For example, most children might laugh at the violence in a funny cartoon, but be disturbed by seeing a child being beaten in a news report. For this reason, parents need to consider what is appropriate for their own child, and select programmes carefully.
