Nowadays, there are many different kinds of news and stories on newspapers for people to read or listen to. It is helpful for people if they take a break from reading or listening to the news. Do you think it is beneficial for people to stop reading or listening to the news for a period of a few days or a week? Why or why not?

参考范文Hardly a day goes by without any news. Whether a news item is uplifting or depressing, sensational or trivial, they are delivered to people of all ages by a variety of media across the world. Some people are fed up with the overwhelming pieces of news and feel it stressful to follow what is happening every day. My opinion most closely aligns with the statement that it is beneficial for them to stop reading news for a few days.
The opposition to the suspension of reading news stems from a common worry that people may miss the news that has an impact on their life. It is true that these reported things that are happening may affect their community in various ways. Some of the news might involve local elections or introduction of new policy, while other stories might concern special events, such as the unveiling of bridges or a new stadium, opening of new businesses, or temporary closure of expressway. Getting such information allows people to get ready for the upcoming activities, take advantage of new facilities or change their plans or transport routes if necessary. Thus, they attach great importance to reading news every day.
However, when people feel that the news items are boring and draining the interest out of them, they had better halt for a while. Continuously doing something that they do not favor can deepen people’s distaste toward it and increase their sense of anxiety and stress, to the detriment of their motivation for persisting in that activity for long. Therefore, taking a break when necessary is sensible and advisable. With respect to the consequence of stopping reading news for a few days, worry is redundant. Important as some pieces of news are, stopping browsing them for a period would exert limited or even no influence on people’s life in most cases. If a piece of important news indeed concerns people’s life, it would reach them ultimately in a variety of ways other than the news reports. Their friends, neighbors or colleagues would be very glad to use the headlines as a conversation starter. Hence, people can feel safe to escape from news media for some days, taking a break, relieving the stress and retrieving their curiosity.
Furthermore, suspending news reading for a while is advantageous for people to deliberate. Some people read news with the aim of broadening their horizon or developing thinking skills. Nevertheless, in this age of information explosion, the quantity of news people read is so overwhelming that little can leave clear impression on readers for long. Via scrolling the news webpage or flipping the newspapers quickly, people usually swallow the information and forget it very soon since they do not have enough time to ponder over the news. A relevant survey shows that people cannot retell the details of most news they read one or two weeks ago. Thus, what they can learn from the news is much less than a book they read carefully or an activity that brings them a great touch. Hence, if people stop reading or listening to news for a period, making good use of their time to reflect on what they have already known, or get insight into a good book, chances are high that they can learn more.
In the light of the above-discussed, retreating from news reading for some days is conspicuously beneficial because it can help people to reduce stress and get more time for meditation without rendering their life troubles.
