TV viewing preferances

范文

The form reveals TV viewing habits of three different age groups in one European nation in the year of 2012.

Juveniles aged from 11 to 15 preferred cartoons above all others, with a quarter of the group viewing this type of TV program in 2012. Soap Operas, feature films and sports ranked second, with about 20% of spectators while TV Drama and news were the least popular programs, with 8% and 6% audience respectively.

For adolescents between 16 and 20 in the region, it could be demonstrated that soap operas and feature films were their favorites by the fact that just under one-fourth percent of people watched them in 2012. Other four kinds of programs such TV dramas, news, cartoons and sports received similar proportions of viewers between 11% 15%.

Young adults from 21 to 25 years old in the particular European country in question seemed to be fanatical about sports events, for 26 percent of them would watch the events through television. What was worth paying attention here was the fact that only 4 percent of them would like to stay in the cartoons channel.

In summary, feature films generally seemed to be the most popular program while TV dramas were unfortunately the least well received type in the certain European country.

Some people think that instead of preventing climate change, we need to find a way to live with it. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

范文

Recently, frequent bouts of extreme weather and climate events are threatening millions of lives in various regions around the world to such an extent that humans should not look on with folded arms any longer. We need to live with the climate change and prevent it at the same time.

First and foremost, human society has to be confronted with climate changes anyway. They are inevitable for the two reasons. One is the inbuilt inertia of the ecosystem, which leads to the continuing warming effects during the next decades even if all the emissions stop today, and the other is the technology difficulty, which takes a long period to shift the global economy from the base of fossil fuels to renewable energies.

Therefore, a wide range of adjustments have to be made. There may be more severe floods and droughts, to resolve which problem, the techniques of artificial rainfall, sub drainage as well as real-time supervision and timely forecast should be strengthened and developed. What’s more, several industries should be revolutionized to better adapt to the changing climate. Agriculturally, meticulous selection of the water, drought, cold and heat resistant crops will be favored. As regards forestry, desertification can be slowed down by planting more trees while in terms of animal husbandry, grass seeds should be more diversified.

However, acclimatization does not necessarily mean capitulation in the battle against the climate change. Despite the impracticality to halt the alteration, the process can be postponed. One possible approach is to enforce strict laws, punishing environmentally destructive activities and deterring mercenary businesses and individuals from releasing astonishing amounts of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Another means is a concerted effort made by the global communities which are currently working individually for inconsistent targets.

In conclusion, the unstoppable climate change necessitates the simultaneous efforts of both and accommodation and prevention, which two are complementary and of equal significance.
