Also this give us oppotunities to see the best actors and performances, to hear music, watch intrested science programm. TV gives wonderful possibilities for education. I every time when I come a home, I may relaxed after a day's work, discover for me something new. I think every may choose a programm, which more suitable for him.

    Some think what TV not usefull for humanity, and they speaking what TV bring in ours world more cruelty and violence. What is more TV distraction people from communicating with each other, especially with respect to our children.

    Hi maxitron, and Welcome to MR!

    I just went over this quickly and only once, so forgive me if I didn't catch all the errors or I have some typos of my own.

    Please note that I am American and corrected it as such; however, I did leave the spelling of words I do know are correct just with a British spelling, like "programm."

    I am wondering though, when you are given these assignments, are you requested or instructed to give your own point of view? As in the last sentences of each paragraph you have the "I, blah, blah, blah" or did you put that in on your own? Here in the States a number of professors would frown on having a personalized essay or statements in the essay. You could rewrite these sentences to have the same feeling without the I... like:
    "Many families enjoy gathering together to watch programs at night as it gives them time to be together and helps them to bond and strengthen as a family."
    I only speak two languages, English and bad English.

    => I have done something with the first part. Does the following contain what you are trying to say?

    Today it is almost impossible to imagine life without TV. But what kind of opinions do people have about it? Some think that TV has had only negative effects on us. On the other hand, many people have seen advantages of TV, and they might say that life without TV is almost impossible these days. Let us begin by considering some facts.

    Positive aspect.
    Nowdays TV is widely used in the world, because it is such a rapid means of communicating news and information. This also gives us opportunities to see the best actors and performances, to hear music and watch interesting science programmes. TV gives wonderful possibilities for education. When I come home after work, I can relax and discover something new on TV. Everyone can choose a programme that most suits themselves.

    Negative aspect.
    Some think that TV is not useful for humanity, and they say that TV brings to our world more cruelty and violence. Moreover, TV distracts people from communicating with each other, especially with respect to children. And we cannot ignore the fact that children prefer to watch TV, more than being with their friends. They spend more time watching movies, than doing homework. One point in support of this is that I can tell you my children have a strong dependence on the TV.

    In conclusion, I would say that although TV has both positive and negative aspects, for more people TV is advantageous. And when our family watches TV together, I get a warm comfortable feeling, and sense that my family is strengthened by it.
