Read the text and match the figures to the information: Could you live without television for a week? That's what millions of people do
every April as part of TV Turnoff Week, which is organized by anti-television
groups like NoTV.com and White Dot.
'Sure, TV can sometimes be fun and exciting, especially when you're tired at the
end of the day,' says Rudy Matthews form NoTV.com, 'but most of the time it's ju
boring. We want people to turn off the TV for a week and do something more
interesting instead."
You may be surprised how much television we watch. The average American
family watches TV for 7 hours and 40 minutes every day and British men watch
27 hours a week (British women watch 'only' 24 hours). This means we spend
over ten of our life watching TV - what a frightening fact!
Many people are worried about how much TV children watch. Every American
child sees 16,000 murders on TV before they are 18 and 20,000 adverts every
year. Teacher Susan Walsh thinks this is a problem. Children in the USA spend
more time watching TV than in school and that's very worrying.'
TV Turnoff Week started in the USA in 1995 and now happens every year in the
UK, France, Holland and Australia. More than 25 million people have turned off their TV, so why don't you do the same?
