Question

We sometimes find that we sit in front of a TV set without thinking anything. It is very important for us to select good TV programs. We must try to make the vest use of it.
------------------------
What does the word 'it' in the last sentence refer to? (Before this passage there were good things and bad things of watching TV.)

Answer 1

I think you mean "best use of it," right?

I guess "it" would refer to television in general, although I think the pronoun in the last sentence should be "them" since "programs" seems to be the closest and most logical antecedent.
