1. It is influencing your worldview. Anybody who has ever been a policeman, a lawyer, a psychiatrist, an ER doctor, or an FBI agent will attest to the truth that television does not accurately portray their life. In almost all aspects, television rarely depicts the world and life accurately. Too much television results in disillusionment about what to expect from the world around us. This can most commonly be seen in people"s expectations of love, romance, and sexuality.
2. It is influencing your spending habits. If you think you are immune (or too smart) to be influenced by the power of advertisements, you are wrong. Corporations do not spend trillions of dollars in advertising hoping to influence you. They spend trillions of dollars because they know they will influence you.
3. It is taking you away from the real people all around you. The characters on television are not real. They are thought up in an office building and given life on a piece of paper. In contrast, you are surrounded everyday by real people living real lives. These real people are facing real problems. They need you. And you need them.
4. It is robbing you of precious mental energy. When your television is on, your concentration is held hostage. Your mental energy is drawn into the screen and your ability to control it is given up.
5. It is costing you money. Americans spend over $6 billion per year just paying for the electricity to power their television sets. Add in the cost of cable/satellite bills, dvd"s, movie subscriptions, peripherals … and we’re starting to talk about real money.
6. It impairs your capacity for rational thought.TV oversimplifies reality. It presents subjects in a matter of minutes and everything is nicely wrapped up at the end. This harms clear thinking by conditioning you to expect that most problems have a simple, clear solution that can be implemented in 60 minutes or less.
7. It is bad for your health. Numerous studies (and common sense) draw direct parallels between excessive television watching and obesity.
8. It results in less satisfaction with life. According to the Journal of Economic Psychology, TV viewers report lower life satisfaction, higher material aspirations, and more anxiety.
9. It results in less sex. Couples who keep a TV in the bedroom have sex half as often as those who don"t. And if you ask me, that should be reason enough…
10. Its opportunity cost is too great. The average American watched an average of 5.1 hours of television per day in 2009. That"s time you could have spent exercising, eating a meal together, entertaining, enjoying nature, meditating, enjoying a hobby, reading a book, or fulfilling a dream.
1、电视影响你的世界观。任何一个做过警察,律师,精神病医生,急诊医生,或者FBI特工的人都证实道,电视并不能准确地描绘他们的生活。几乎在所有方面,电视都不能准确描绘世界和生活。过多的电视导致了我们对现实世界的失望,最常见的是人们对爱情,浪漫氛围和性的失望。
2、电视影响你的消费习惯。如果你觉得自己对广告的力量是具有免疫力的,那么你错了。公司在广告上砸了大量的钱,并不是希望广告能够影响你,而是因为他们知道广告一定能够影响你。
3、电视使你远离现实中周围的人。电视中的角色并不是真实的。他们在办公大楼中被构思出来,然后在一张纸上被赋予生命。恰恰相反,你每天都被生活在现实里的人们包围着。这些真实的人们面临着真实的困扰。他们需要你,你也需要他们。
4、电视窃取你宝贵的精力。一旦你的电视机打开,你的注意力便被劫为人质,你的精力集中在屏幕上,并且你想要控制此局面的能力也被放弃了。
5、电视花费你的钱财。美国人每年花费超过60亿美元仅仅为了给他们的电视机供电。再加上人造卫星、DVD、电影预订、外接设备等的成本……我们将要讨论的可是真正的钱。
6、电视损害你理性思考的能力。电视将现实过分简单化。它将事物在短短几分钟内呈现出来,最后顺利完成拍摄。电视使你习惯于期望大多数问题会在60分钟或更短时间后有一个简单清晰的答案。
7、电视损害你的健康。大量研究(及常识)表明看电视过度和肥胖之间存在直接联系。
8、电视引起对生活的不满。《经济心理学》写道,电视观众有更低的生活满意度、更高的物质欲望以及更多的焦虑。
9、电视降低性欲。那些在卧室中放置一台电视的夫妻的性交频率是那些没有在卧室放电视的夫妻的一半。如果你问我的话,那一定是有很多原因的……
10、看电视的隐性成本很高。美国人在2009年平均每天看电视5.1小时。而这么多的时间你本可以用来锻炼、一起吃个饭、享受大自然、做计划、做些业余爱好、读本书,或是实现梦想。
