With the recent development in technology like e-books, some people feel that the printed media like books, newspapers and magazine will soon be a thing of the past. What is your opinion?
Nowadays,
books
, newspapers
and magazines are becoming less popular because technology is spreading. In fact, many people
prefer to read e-books
.
Firstly
, some people
prefer buying e-books
or reading news online because is easier and more accessible. For example
, in the past newspapers
were very popular because it was the only way to connect with the world. However
, now we are always connected with smartphones, tablets and televisions and we inform ourselves with those devices. We can just simply open the internet and be informed rather than have to go out and buy a newspaper. In addition
to that, many people
prefer technology because it is more sustainable. In fact, trees are cut to make books
or magazines. Moreover
, we tend to prefer technology because it is immediate and on the contrary
newspapers
are printed once a day.
On the other hand
, there is still a great number of people
who prefer to read news on paper. For example
, elder people
sometimes don't
have access to mobile devices or don't
know how to use them and thus
, they enjoy newspapers
more. In addition
to that, people
who go to work usually prefer to read paper books
or newspapers
since they often take the subway, where the internet connection isn't
always great.
In conclusion, I believe that paper books
are becoming less popular but I don't
think they will disappear in the near future because many people
still utilize them for many reasons.Submitted by chi63hi
