新托福写作真题范文：电影或电视如何影响人们

Movies are popular because people are great watchers. They like to watch other peoples' lives. They like to live vicariously(间接感受到地). By going to movies, we can escape our own lives, share other people's emotions, and imagine ourselves as someone else.

Many of our lives are not as adventurous or glamorous(迷人的)as the lives in movies. We do not battle evil(不幸的)all day long and then go back to our luxurious penthouse apartment(奢华的屋顶公寓).

We just go to school, do our homework, eat, talk to our friends, and sleep. We need a little excitement in our lives and we find excitement at the movies.(在平凡的生活中寻找点刺激，这确实是看电影的目的之一)

Humans are very emotional people. We all like to cry and laugh. Fortunately, there is not much to cry about in my life so I like to go to sad movies where my heartstrings can be tugged(扣人心弦).

I also like to go to comedies so that I can laugh.
