XI. Read the text then answer the questions.
Television viewing is a major activity and influence on children. Children in the United States watch an average of three to four hours of television a day.
While television can entertain, inform, and keep our children company, it may also influence them in undesirable ways. Time spent watching television takes away from important activities such as reading, school work, playing, exercise, family interaction, and social development. Children who watch a lot of television are likely to have lower grades in school, read fewer books, exercise less, and be overweight.
Parents can help by doing the following:
♦ Don’t allow children to watch long blocks of TV.
♦ Help them choose suitable programmes. Children’s shows on public TV are appropriate, but soap operas, adult sitcoms and adult talk shows are not.
♦ Set certain periods when the television will be off. Study times are for learning, not for sitting in front of the TV doing homework.
Make TV viewing an active process for child and parent!

Dear my friend!
As you know that since the outbreak of Covid, we have suffered great consequences and many people have suffered losses to their lives and many other things !! In my country, the influence of Covid-19 is not at all light, when I translated Covid to my city, I was very worried and impatient. The government has told and advised people not to go out, and wear masks ... Then then we started to be more careful when going out, to wear masks, That made me very is annoying because it was not very comfortable and can be said that it messed up my life and everyone in the country, and I had to learn through Zoom, after all that time I found it ineffective because studying on Zoom makes me not very focused and makes the lesson difficult to understand for me, what I tell you is true and if possible I want to advise everyone to keep health because we still have to fight this epidemic is quite long and everyone should follow all the rules that the government, everyone has set out to repel this epidemic.
I hope I will speak with you soon !!
Dear my friend!
Surely you also know about the Covid 19 epidemic and its heavy effects, right? To be honest, in Vietnam, we are not affected much by the pandemic, but we are also aware of its danger, so we take precautions by wearing masks and hand washing antiseptic. But recently, in Hai Duong, there were cases of infection in the community, and gradually, more and more cases of infections appeared, and more and more people were F1, F2 (people in contact with Covid 19 infected people.) more. Not only that, the epidemic broke out on the occasion of the Lunar New Year, so we must be more conscious of preventing the spread of epidemic. Students must study online, workers struggle on difficult days, and doctors work day and night to fight the epidemic. Even so, there are still some people who are unconscious and take advantage of it to do bad things. Bad deeds deserve condemnation and good deeds deserve praise. So, let's join hands together to repel translation, so that our life can return to normal as before ! Let's fight off a terrifying plague together !
Hope we will have a chance to talk longer! See you again !
