Writing
For:
You can find out about the news more often, on TV.
TV news is more interesting because you can listen to
people speaking.
You can understand news better when you see it on TV.
There aren’t always pictures of things you are reading
about in the newspaper.
Students don’t have enough time to read a newspaper
every day.
Against:
You can read newspapers anywhere – on the bus or train,
for example.
Reading is more relaxing than watching TV

I’ll never forget the first day of my holiday last year. It was
the worst day, too!
First, I overslept. I didn’t hear my alarm clock, so I was late
for the bus and my football match.
Then I dressed quickly, and ran down the street to the
sports centre. I was running so fast, I tripped and fell.
Next, I was lying on the ground in pain. After that, I don’t
remember much about what happened. But I ended up in
hospital somehow – with a broken leg!
But that wasn’t all. My team finally played the match,
without me – and lost.
And the very worst thing was, I spent my holiday indoors,
instead of having fun with my friends outside.
