In this modern life, when technology is on the trend of nonstop development, the debate about whether reading books or watching TV is more effective in enhancing/improving/stimulating one’s imaginative capacity and language skills remains controversial. While other people may suggest using TV to master imagination and language skills, it seems to me that reading books is more efficient than watching TV.
In terms of imagination, books can develop the ability to imagine more than TV (can). This is because those authors use words to communicate with their readers in books. Every character, melody, and picture is described in words. Those words can encourage different readers to build up various pictures about the same written story in their minds. Meanwhile, audiences who watch a movie or a TV show may not need to imagine as much as readers because every scene appears clearly in front of them in exactly the same colors, shapes, and positions for every audience. In other words, readers are free to use their ability to imagine and create their own version based on the words in books, while all audience/viewers may have to look at one scene that producers have built up from their point of view.
Moreover, reading books also helps people enhance their language skills better than watching TV does. In books, writers seem to pay more attention to conveying their ideas through written language with precise grammar and vocabulary, which are often simplified in spoken language in TV shows or movies. This is why books are more conducive for language learners, especially children and foreigners, to enriching vocabulary, correct grammar, and enhancing writing and reading skills.
In conclusion, reading books or watching TV is helpful to advance imaginative ability and language skills. However, I firmly believe that reading has more positive impacts on human creative thinking and language skills for the reasons mentioned above.
