Nowadays, electronic media are really common. Every person has a cell phone, every family has a television, and every person has a computer. People use electronic media to find information, play online games, see Facebook, and chat online. People cannot imagine what they could do if electronic media disappeared. How would they communicate with their parents? In my opinion, there are three benefits if there were no electronic media. The first is to have more time to talk with our family. The second is to have more time to do outdoor activities. And the third is to read more books.

If there were no electronic media, I think I would have more time to talk with my family. For example, I would not play my smart phone at the dinner table. I could use this time to talk about what happened on the day, or the recent news. I believe it is really relaxing for everyone. I could talk to my parents, and understand how they have been doing. It is a great way to improve family relationship.

If there were no electronic media, I would have more time to do outdoor activities. I would not watch television all the time. I could go hiking, play basketball, and even go jogging. Not only could I do some interesting activities, but I could also keep healthy. And I could also play with my friends. Actually, I think electronic media are not the most important for me.

If there were no electronic media, I would spend more time reading books. Because of electronic media, I seldom go to bookstores to read books. I always watch my Facebook, chat online, and play games. It always takes me a lot of time. Perhaps one day I can choose my favorite books, and spend all day reading them. I can learn many terrific meanings from the books. My father also told me that reading books is a good way for passing time, and it is also good entertainment. After reading books, I can get together with my friends to share how I feel about the books and what I have learned from them.

Without electronic media, I can still do many things. I can communicate with families and friends in different ways. And I can enjoy my free time doing outdoor activities, which, I think is a healthier lifestyle than sitting in front of the TV or the computer all the time.
