This is closely followed by the proportion of people who choose to watch basketball (approximately 36%). Surprisingly, an equal number of males treat rugby and badminton as their favorite sports for watching, accounting for roughly 27%.

  In terms of the people who choose to participate in sports instead of watching, 50% of them take fishing as their first choice. However, 25% of males choose to take part in basketball and badminton, while football might be the last sports they would like to try.

  参考范文:

  Currently, a debatable argument over whether children should be exposed to the environment teeming with TV advertising has already aroused public’s attention. According to the discussion, this article tends to focus on the effects it may cause on little children as well as point out the opinion towards whether it should be limited or not.

  The first concern should be the influence it may exert on the younger generation. This, to a large extent is due to both physical and mental effects. On the one hand, companies always post some images as well as flashes on screens for the sake of attracting children, and thus long-time exposure to those colorful pictures may cause damages to their eyesight. On the other hand, profit-oriented advertising stimulates the eagerness for children to purchase some unnecessary commodities such as junk food and toys, which contributes to the development of their unhealthy diet or living habits. Besides, negative information such as violence or pornography may find their way in television advertising, which to some extent may leave a negative impression on the youth.

  However, in terms of the issue of whether TV commercials for children should be less adopted, the answer depends on the influence it may impose on children. For those that provide little children with a large amount of useful information, limitation should not be taken into consideration. This is due to the fact that those ads about educational events can develop children’s cognitive abilities, artistic creativity or active lifestyle. Nevertheless, to another concern, for these advertisements that cause wasteful consumption, they should be regulated by the government, since those may lead to a lone-term effects on the rates of children’s diet-related disease, such as obesity and high-blood pressure.

  In a nutshell, the impacts that television commercials exert on the younger generation should be analyzed both physically and mentally. Individually, laws or regulations only need to be imposed on those which contain negative information.
