Q: Twenty years from now, students will no longer use printed books.
People have their own idea about whether or not the printed book will use in the future. Some people might think that printed book will still be important. From my point of view, however, we will rarely see using printed book in the twenty years later.
First of all, in order to make printed book we need to cut down a large numbers of tree. It is often said that we are living in the era which is emphasizing the importance of environmental. Therefore, the government will gradually prohibit the eco destructive behavior and invent new technologies to protect environmental. According to the research conducted by National forest officer, millions of tons of trees are cut down to make the book. They also add that if the E-book is generally used by the public, we can save huge amount of trees every year and eventually it leads to environmental preservation.
Not only that, using E-book is more convenient and efficient when you study instead of using printed book. Some people might say that they feel more comfortable when they study with printed book. However, some printed book is so heavy and thick that it is not easy for you to carry with you. For example, I have a friend who major in law. Every time he go to the library to study, especially middle and final term, he have a hard time bringing a heavy book with him. If he uses E-book, he does not need to make an effort to bring heavy book. This is because E-book is very thin and light and also contains more than ten volumes of books.
For these reasons that I mentioned above, I can definitely say that we will no longer use the printed books in twenty years later.
