标题: It is the uses to which it is put that determine its value to society.
There are many other arguments for and against television. The poor quality of its programs is often criticized. But it is undoubtedly a great comfort to many lonely elderly people. And does it corrupt or instruct our children? I think we must realize that television in itself is neither good nor bad. (73) It is the uses to which it is put that determine its value to society.

请问最后一句怎么翻译啊?成分怎么分?

整体为强调句,the uses 是后面 determine its value to society 的主语,先去掉to which it is put  就是It is the uses that determine its value to society.一个完整的强调句,to which it is put 是uses 的定语从句,这里的it代指前面讲到的电视节目的内容。

对于电视褒贬都多,节目质量低劣经常被批,但电视无疑对很多孤独和年老的人来说是很重要的寄托。那么它对儿童是起引导还是腐蚀作用呢?我想我们必须意识到,电视本身是没有对错之分的,而怎么使用它才决定了它对社会的价值。

lorry把成分和结构都分析得很好了,我就来做做体力活,这段好像并不好翻,有兴趣的朋友可以给出自己的方案。
