​Q. Your partner wants to buy a TV with a wider-than-usual screen. Persuade your partner to buy the TV that you chose by comparing the two televisions.

The TV you chose definitely has some good points. However, there are a couple of reasons why I think my choice is the better option for our home.

For one thing, TV made by ZX Electronics is $300 cheaper than the ARC TV. As you know, we don’t have a lot of money to spend right now, so I think getting a cheaper TV is a better option, especially as the screen is a little bigger.

For another thing, our DVD player and CD player are both silver, so I think that a silver TV would look better in our home than one which is black. I do like the longer warranty that the ARC TV has, but I really think the silver one is better for us.

I hope you understand and agree with my reasons for thinking that the TV made by ZX Electronics is a better option.
