these computers or internet-based reading materials have their advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, using electronic devices

has some drawbacks, and it is more beneficial for us to read printed materials in the short term.

Secondly
, online news is updated much faster than news in traditional printed newspapers, magazines, or books, which allows electronics users to access online news which is updated every hour.

of paying any fees for them. In conclusion, it seems to me that traditional printed materials could be replaced by electronic information, and electronic information would play an essential role in our lives in the near future.
