最近對(duì)某市看電影者和看電視者的一次調(diào)查分析了二者人數(shù)的變化。曲線圖表明，1992年到2002年期間看電影的人數(shù)以急趨下降，2002年總計(jì)為2萬(wàn)人。而看電視的人數(shù)在過(guò)去的10年中持續(xù)上升，2002年達(dá)到15萬(wàn)。最后，有趣的是，1998年電影觀眾和電視觀眾數(shù)量相等。
我想，這種變化可能有兩點(diǎn)原因。首先，電視不僅是一種方便的消遣形式，而且相對(duì)來(lái)說(shuō)價(jià)錢便宜?？措娨暡槐匕才沤煌üぞ?。人們也不須支付電影院昂貴的座位費(fèi)。第二，電視可以使人及時(shí)了解當(dāng)前大事和科技的最新發(fā)展。因此，許多人寧愿呆在家里看電視，而不愿出去看電影，因?yàn)榭措娪凹荣M(fèi)時(shí)又費(fèi)錢。
依我看，到現(xiàn)在仍有許多人愛看電影。他們聲稱，電影是一種令人心曠神怡的藝術(shù)形式。舒服地坐在電影院里，人們可以欣賞到最新的影片，而這些影片通常要過(guò)很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間才會(huì)在電視上播放。因此，我認(rèn)為電影觀眾的人數(shù)將來(lái)會(huì)增加。
A recent survey analyzed the change in number of film-goers and TV watchers in X city. As is shown by the graph, there has been a sharp decline in the number of film-goers during the period from 1992 to 2002, adding up to 20,000 in 2002. On the other hand, the number of TV watchers has steadily increase in the last decade, reaching 150,000 in 2002. Finally, it is interesting to note that there were as many film-goers as TV watchers in year 1998.
There might be two reason, I think, for the change. Firstly, TV is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but a comparatively cheap one. There is no point in arranging transport. And one needn＇t pay for expensive seats at the cinema. Secondly, TV makes it possible for one to keep track of current events and the latest developments in science and technology. As a consequence, most people prefer to stay at home, watching TV, rather than go out to the cinema, which wastes both time and money.
Personally, there are still a lot of people who enjoy watching films. They argue that the film is a fascinating form of art. Sitting comfortably in the cinema, one can appreciate the latest movies, which will usually be shown on TV far later on. Therefore, I trust the number of film-goers will be on the rise in the future.
