Today, there is no end in sight to development of the electronic worlds. Most people use it and read, watch, hear and search on computer. Recently, one topic has become an issue. It is e-book. Some people say that the printed books are better than e-book. However, I think that e-books are more useful. Because a lot of young people use electric media very well and e-books are more convenient.
To begin with, significant numbers of young people prefer to use electronic things such as electronic bulletin boards, e-mail, video call, multimedia and so on. They have been raised in the information age and always use them. Therefore, they do not have any problems to use electronic media.
The preference survey has shown that e-book is more popular than printed book. Some people who have chosen printed books said that the printed have enjoyment which turns the pages of a book. I also know that pleasure. But today's youths are used to reading e-books.
On top of that, e-books are handy. We not only can carry a lot of books in digital form, but also quickly find information which we need. Let me take my own experience as an example. When I was a freshman, I had to carry my major books every day. My bag was always heavy and pressed down my shoulder. But my friend who used e-book had a lighter bag than mine. After having a laptop, I could use too. Although my one major subject needed four books, I just had a small USB (universal serial bus) which had information about that subject. So, it helped me to study easier and comfortable. I not only saved time to borrow books from library and to find information, but I also could study many classes at one place.
To sum up, using e-book helps students to study simply and is easy to use for young people. For these reason, I agree with the statement that e-book is more helpful than printed book in nowadays.
