七、书信作文
Dear Tom,
I heard that you have watched several good TV programs these days. So I’d like to share my ideas about TV shows with you.
Of all the TV shows, I like sitcoms best because I feel very relaxed when I am watching them. But I dislike soap operas because they’re meaningless. I usually watch sitcoms twice a week. And every time I watch them for half an hour, because watching too much TV is bad for our eyes. The reason why I prefer sitcoms is that I watched a sitcom named Home With Kids (家有儿女) when I was a child. It made me know about the enjoyment and the happiness with the family, and I also learnt a lot of great jokes from it. It made me laugh easily.
Some TV shows are educational and meaningful, so we can get much knowledge from them. But some are boring and meaningless. Watching them is a waste of time. We should choose the good ones to watch.
Yours,
Jerry
