Okay everyone, I need your votes. I'm doing a persuasive text trying to convince my teacher that reading is better than watching T.V and I need your help. All you need to do is reply with either T.V or reading so I can tally it all up and see what the public thinks is better. Also if you have any opinions on the matter feel free to check them in. Cheers:)

I would choose reading because people (myself included) declare that most books are better than the movies and t.v shows. Reading also helps with improving vocabulary and yeah sometimes reading seems "boring" but if you just find a genre you fancy then books become way more enjoyable in comparison to television. (sorry this is so lengthy)

No problem.

I would say tv

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Depends on the book or TV show/movie. Most of the time I would prefer reading unless it is like a romance book. There are also a few TV shows I like but I would prefer reading because I can visualize what I think it would look like instead of what others think it should look like.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm every teacher is gonna give you a ok grade if you say reading is better than watching tv

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, I know alisonrae20298, but the point of this assignment is to try and convince them and make them believe what I say is true even if they already agree.
