　　The advent of information age（信息化时代的到来） has bombarded（轰炸） the public with too much information, much of which has little connection with people’s daily life. Under this circumstance, an absolute consensus can hardly be reached whether（话题句套句） reading news on newspapers or watching news programs on TV is a waste of time. For my part, I side with opponents to a larger extent.

　　To begin with, obtaining the news information is instructive to people’s life. Frequently reading the news reports, no matter in newspapers or on TV programs, citizens can have a clearer picture of（更清楚的了解） the policies of the country, and thus behave accordingly without worrying to be lagged behind（落后）. In addition, knowing what is happening around or over the world, people can be motivated to grasp more chances to realize their dreams.

　　Furthermore, reading news helps people to enjoy better communication with others. Always being connected with the news, people can be broadened in their horizon and thus are enabled to have more topics to share with their friends or relatives. Also, when something urgent such as disasters or other forms of tragedies happen, people may not only offer their help to show humanity, but also gain some experience in tackling the problems.

　　It has to be admitted that with the help of computers and the Internet as well as the mobile phones, people are surrounded by the popping out（出现） of news reports. In this case, they are already besieged（包围） by too much information, making the reading of news in newspapers and TV programs seemingly pointless. However, this cannot deprive people of their rights（剥夺权力） to embrace（享有） the time with their family members and this does not mean they can select out the right information. As a consequence, getting news that is selected for them from newspapers or TV programs can still be of great value to the public.

　　In a nutshell, I am convinced that newspapers and TV news programs are still significant in delivering news reports. As for how to take advantage of（利用） them, it depends on individuals’ judgments rather than just an assertion（声称/断言） of a waste of time.
