More and more women in the entertainment industry are opening up about the misogyny

the norm in the industry.

TASK 2: 160-180 words (40 points)

A newspaper has asked its readers to contribute to an article called Binge-watching:

hazardous for our health?

Binge-watching, otherwise known as the act of streaming many television episodes in one sitting,
is more common and doable than ever. New and buzzy series are constantly added to Netflix, Hulu,
etc.

Though that might sound glorious to TV fans, it’s a bit worrisome to health experts across the
country. With so much content available, and so much screen time becoming the norm — replacing
hours devoted to fitness, socializing and sleeping — the potential health implications of binge-
watching are becoming more obvious.

Write your entry for the newspaper in reply. Try to include as much detail as possible.
