Television.
The word television comes from the Latin
word ‘tele’ and ‘vision’. ‘Tele’ means distance and ‘vision’ means to see. So the
word television means seeing from distance. Paul Nepkov Jhon Bayard invented
the television in 1925. Television is one of the greatest invention of modern
science. This is made on the basis of many experiments. After day’s hard work
we sit before a television set and hearing music, news and songs. This is
source of recreation. We enjoy drama, dance and many other things. We see the
actors and actress. We heard the speeches of the world famous personalities. It
serves much more than a radio. It gives us news national and international
matters. It is like a stage where performers are seen and heard.
Television teaches our students and
illiterate. It has a great educative value. We hear and enjoy debates, discussion
on science, speeches and lectures on various important topics through
television.
We have conquered time and distance
by it. Now the world has made small by television. We get familiar with the
customs and traditions, fashions and dresses and culture of the people of
deferent parts of the world through the television. It conveys economic, religious,
social, political and cultural news of home and abroad. Now-a-days people need
not go to stadium to enjoy game. They sit before a television set and enjoy
tennis, cricket football and other games and sports.
Although television gives us many
advantages. Yet, it has some disadvantages. Student often becomes addicted to
television. They prefer enjoying television to study. Young boys are fond of
sitting before televisions in place of playing in the field. Thus it hinders
the growth of the young generations. Sometimes, obscene films and almost naked
dances are shown in the television which are very much harmful. This is clear
that It is important medium of mass communication. It plays an important role
in our life.
