OpenF2F Class Notes 2nd March (Celeste)

Writing exercise

Which one do you think is better:watching the news or reading the news.

I prefer to watch the news. Watching television news programes are emotional and people don’t even have to read words. Through the anchor, we can know how is the news. For instance, my grandfather can’t read, but he totally want to know national news. Since my parents bought a television at home. My grandfather was so happy that he always sat on the couch and listen to the anchor.

I prefer to watch the news. Watching news programs are emotional and even convenient because people don’t need to read, just watch and listen. Through the anchor/reporter, we can know what is happening around the world. For instance, my grandfather is illiterate, he can’t read, but he totally wants to know the national news. Since my parents bought a television for our house, my grandfather is so happy that he always sits on the couch and listens to the anchor.
