I would like to suggest that for sixty to ninety minutes each evening all television broadcasting in the United States be forbidden by law. Let us take a      , reasonable look at what the results might be if such a（an）      were accepted.

Families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction（分散注意力） of TV, they might     together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our    ----everything in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of     illness ----are caused at least in part by     to communicate. By using the quiet family hour to     our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better. On evenings when such talk is     , families could discover more active pastimes(娱乐). Freed from TV and forced to find their own activities, they might take a     together to watch the sunset     they might take a walk together.

      free time and no TV, children and adults might discover reading. There is more entertainment in       than in a TV program.       report that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence,       at the college level.     is often learned from reading. A more literate new generation could be a product of the quiet hour. A different form of reading might also be done     it was in the past: reading aloud. The quiet hour could become the story hour. When the     ends, the TV networks might be forced to     with better shows in order to get us back from our newly- discovered activities.

At first glance, this idea seems radical(激进的).     will we spend the time then? The fact is: it has been only twenty-five years since television came to control American free time. Those of us thirty-five and older can     childhoods without television. It wasn't that difficult.

A water bearer in India had two large pots;  each hung on the ends of a pole. The water bearer often  carried the pole __36__ his neck. One of the pots had a crack(裂缝) in it, __37__ the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water. At the end of the long walk from the stream to the house,  the cracked pot __38__ only half full. For a full two years,  this went on __39__，  with the bearer delivering only one and a half pots full of water to his house.

Of course,  the perfect pot was __40__ of its advantages. But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection,  and __41__ that it was able to __42__ only half of what it had been made to do.  __43__ two years of what  sensed to be a bitter __44__，  it spoke to the water bearer one day by the stream. “I am ashamed of myself,  and I want to __45__ to you. I have been able to  __46__ only half my load because this crack  in my side __47__ water to leak out all the way back to your house. Because of my __48__，  you have to do a lot of this work,  and you don't get full value from your __49__，”  the pot said.

 The bearer said to the pot,  “Did you __50__ that there were flowers only on your side of the path,  __51__ not on the other pot's side? That's because I have always __52__ your fault,  and I planted flower seeds on your side of the path,  and every day while we walk back,  you've __53__ them.

For two years I have been able to __54__ these  beautiful flowers to decorate the table. Without you being just the __55__ you are,  there would not be this beauty to grace the house.”
