"In the future, nobody will buy printed newspapers or books because they will able to read everything they want online without paying. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?"

It is argued by some

people

that e-press and e-book would totally replace the paper ones as it would be free online reading in the future. I cannot entirely agree that

people

would only rely on online reading even it is zero cost.

However

, the printed version still realizes the traditional values of reading.

To begin

with, digital reading brings more convenience, but physical ones offer a comprehensive experience beyond reading itself.

For example

, apart from the words, a printed book includes cover, pictures, different material of inner pages, bookbinding, and so on, which build up the entire content from visualization and sensation.

Therefore

, not all details could be replaced by e-publication, which importantly created an emotional connection between readers and writers.

On the other hand

, the printed publication not only reflect the symbols and trends of the age, but

also

they are part of history.

For instance

, various

people

have read many paperbacks with notes, especially by someone special who left valuable views and information to the

readers and

also

people

could capture their thinking and attitude towards particular problems.

As a result

, the books become the witness of the history and storytellers.

Nevertheless

, hardly can online publications keep track of time and things that happen in the past.

Thus

, the paper ones have cultural significance and historical value beyond the text. In conclusion, I believe that more and more

people

will get used to reading online, but paper-reading will be definitely kept as part of reading behaviours to fulfil different purposes. I partially disagree that no one will purchase newspapers and books, especially in terms of books. Newspaper potentially might be a case.

Wildlife poplulation around the world has decreased by around 50 percent, what can we do to protect wildlife?
Human activities have become the prime reason for the depletion of the number of animals around the world. Humans believe that they are the most powerful species on this planet; therefore, they choose to take advantage of all natural resources, even if this results in the destruction of the environment around them. Clearly, we have witnessed negative changes in ecological balance and wildlife habitats. I believe that the world’s wildlife population should be better protected.

People are born with special talents as God's gift for instance music or sports, but others can be expert through regularly learning or practical training. I believe that both of them can happen, for those who have natural ability they are likely efortlessly to develop their skill, but other children that have an huge interest on related talents also can likely to be an expert people who has natural talents.

Some people think that the increasing use of computers and mobile phones for communication has a negative effect on young people's reading and writing skills. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
There is no doubt, that regular usage of computers and mobile phones has developed in recent years. While others believe that this improves the quality of life and does not have any drawbacks. I would strongly argue that it is harmfully affecting the reading and writing talents of youngsters.
