  Are you a TV lover? Can you think of living without TV? Well, you can give it a try this week.
 A group of Americans, TV-Turnoff Network, have an idea. They ask children all over the world to turn off their TVs for a week, from April 19 to 25. They want children to watch less TV.
 TV-Turnoff Network says watching TV too much can give children big problems with school, health and family. Some American scientists began a study of 1,300 children several years ago. It shows that if children watch too much TV, they don't do well in school. When children watch lots of TV, they eat more unhealthy food. More of the children are getting overweight(超重) and become ill more easily. And, too much TV is also bad for their eyes.
 Many American families watch TV at dinner time. So they don't talk much when they eat together. It's bad for their family life. Also, there is lots of fighting on TV. After watching these programs, some children become violent (暴力的) in real life.
 Today, lots of people already know too much TV is bad for them. Since 1995, about 24 million people in America have taken part in TV-Turnoff Week. If you turn off your TV for a week, maybe you can find something fun to do. Maybe you can read some books, or learn to swim, or draw a picture.
