EXAMPLE OF HORTATORY EXPOSITION TEXT

Television is a popular form of communication medium in any household. It has also become an

important part in our daily life. It cannot be denied that television from which we get informationand entertainments, has contributed to the improvement of our society. But, on the contrary, I

think television tends to have a tremendous influence on its viewers.

Instead of its advantages, the presence of television also affects negatively on our society. First,

based on the recent research, people of all ages use this media to entertain themselves for an

average of five hours a day. The content exposure of TV, of course, will influence the viewers,

not only their thinking but also attitudes. This can be seen from the fact that many criminalitiesare inspired from the scene of TV. Second, people can be adversely influenced by constant

watching TV. They less participate in physical and social activities, spend less time reading and

working, and see a work of violence that can affect their feeling of security. The last, commercial

advertisements on TV can be a kind of brain washing. Physiologically, constant show ofadvertisements will create peoples images about one product. No wonder people are easier to

remember the motto or slogan of an advertisement than to retrieve information that they havelearned.

The participants and audiences

It is clear that TV will be a kind of monster if we cannot manage it well. It is very important forus to handle and manage the presence of television in order to overcome the negative effects of

television, especially for children and young generation.

Ladies and gentlemen

Instead of its advantages, the presence of television also affects negatively on our society.

First, based on the recent research, people of all ages use this media to entertain themselves for

an average of five hours a day. The content exposure of TV, of course, will influence theviewers, not only their thinking but also attitudes. This can be seen from the fact that many

criminalities are inspired from the scene of TV. Second, people can be adversely influenced by

constant watching TV. They less participate in physical and social activities, spend less timereading and working, and see a work of violence that can affect their feeling of security. The last,

commercial advertisements on TV can be a kind of brain washing. Physiologically, constant

show of advertisements will create peoples images about one product. No wonder people areeasier to remember the motto or slogan of an advertisement than to retrieve information that

they have learned.

The participants and audiences

Based on my explanation above, it is clear that TV will be a kind of monster if we cannot

manage it well. It is very important for us to handle and manage the presence of television in
