Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

Students can learn as much by watching movies as they can learn by reading books.

There is no question that books are an excellent source of knowledge. They provide in-depth information on a variety of topics, and can be used to learn about history, science, and other academic subjects. However, movies can be just as educational as books. Here are three reasons why.

Books can be more engaging than movies. Let's be honest: reading may be tedious. Many individuals find it difficult to sit for lengthy periods of time and read. Movies, on the other hand, are far more captivating. They are visually appealing and frequently involve action and suspense, which may keep a viewer's attention for the entire duration.

Films may cover a great deal of ground in a short amount of time. A two-hour film may convey a narrative that would need hundreds of pages in a book. This is very beneficial for students with limited time who are attempting to learn about a certain subject. For example, a movie about the American Revolution can cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time, introducing the main characters, showing the major events leading up to the war, and depicting the war itself in a way that a book could never do.

Movies have the potential to be more unforgettable than books. Films are more memorable than texts because they are visually stimulating. This is beneficial for students who need to recall knowledge for examinations or papers. A student who reads a history textbook and then views a video on the same topic is more likely to recall the documentary than the textbook. This is due to the fact that the documentary brings history to life with pictures and music, whereas the textbook focuses mostly on text. In addition, since movies are typically more enjoyable than books, we are more likely to pay attention and remember what we have watched.

Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:

para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.

So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:

reasons == advantages or

reasons == disadvantages

for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.

or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
