1) My argument TV negatively  affects child.
I want to argue that the TV affects child negatively.  Today TV exerts great influence on Children. And I want to emphasize TV's affects to readers so that they have awareness of the danger.

2) How I found my argument Explain how your research helped you find your argument. Or, in other words, how did your research evolve into your argument? Start with your research question.
My first question was, Is TV really harmful to children? Of course, there are a lots of advantages that TV gives us, for example, news, education, and kids' broadcasting. However, disadvantages are more influential than advantages. According to the article, TV brings violence, risky behaviors, obesity, poor performance in school, being less able to use imagination,focusing problem etc. And I realized that TV brings both physical and psychological problems.

3) New research questions What do you still need to know? What is your research plan?
I have several questions that need to be resolved.
a) How can I prove the certainty of  the influence of TV?
b) What areas are the brain directly and indirectly affected to TV?
c) How about good content? Is it good to children?
I'll continue browsing the internet and looking for interesting articles and keeping track of my research with blog posts.

4) Connections to the Harvard Sampler How is your argument connected to the Harvard Sampler? ANY CONNECTION IS VALID. Please focus on choosing a good argument first, then think about how it is related to the Harvard Sampler. I will help you think of the connection if necessary.
This argument has many connections to the Harvard Sampler. First, it obviously is directly related to the human mind. Second, it connects to medical detectives because there are lots of medical questions about the physical and psychological relation to the brain. It also relates to the cycle of invention and control because the invention of the TV led us to the fast report and broadcasting of information, but its contents are under the control and exploitation. Last, the TV is the most powerful background of modern broadcasting, so when comparing the mind to computers I will need to look at the mind versus the TV.
