Nowadays, along with the increasingly importantinteraction between nations, people are concerning more about not only theirown country, but also foreign countries. Some people assert that readingnewspapers and magazines is the best way to learn about a foreign country.However, I can hardly agree with the claim for the reasons as following.
There is no denying that newspaper and magazinecontribute a lot to describe different landscape as well as inform us the newsand the conditions about foreign countries. Newspapers and magazines can beeasily gotten at the newsstands or convenient shops, which offer the generalpublic opportunities to learn about the global world. Also, the information onthe newspapers and magazines is selected by editors, including all thesignificant events in the country. By reading such news, people can save muchtime and meanwhile keep knowledgeable.
Nevertheless, some other ways may be more idealthan reading newspaper and magazine, such as watching TV programs and surfingthe Internet. Newspapers and magazines are both traditional media which provideabundant information about foreign countries for many years, especially twentyyears ago, when other media were not improved to become so popular.Nonetheless, the development of information and telecommunication technologymakes people able to access information easily and conveniently from TV andInternet. Without thorough examination and strict preapproval, the informationon TV and Internet is more updated and extensive. People can get the latestupdates via TV in the next minute after an incident happens. People can alsohear various voices positive and negative, about a foreign country. Thesebenefits cannot be obtained by newspapers and magazines.
Furthermore, another ideal way to learn about aforeign country is bound to be travelling. Sometimes records and views frommedia cannot reflect the real conditions of foreign countries. Instead,travelling can bring us a vivid foreign country. Before living in a foreigncountry for a while and communicating with the local inhabitants, we can hardlyknow exactly the climate, economy and culture there. For instance, we cantravel to a country to try its special foods and snacks, which have a longhistory. Also, we can visit some famous and representative historical sites toexperience the history by ourselves. Only by this way can we learn the accurateand typical characteristics about the country. Besides, it is much moreinteresting than reading newspaper and magazine. There is no doubt that beingthere is an effective and fun way to learn about a foreign country.
From what has been discussed above, we may safelydraw the conclusion that although reading newspapers and magazines is a goodway to learn about a foreign country, there are many other effective ways toknow about a foreign country. Therefore, I cannot agree with the statement thatthe best way to learn about a foreign country is to read the newspapers andmagazines from that country. (481 words)
