주제 Twenty years from now, students will no longer use printed books. |
To begin with, many people have memorable memories with their own books. Books take time to read, and while some people read books, they are likely to think about events or their past that are related to the contents of the books. Hence, they have unforgettable impressions about the books. To illustrate, when I read the book named, "Pinocchio", I used to think about my precious doll, Pooh. It had been with me for about seven years, and that book made me think that my doll, Pooh could be my real friend. Until now, I cannot forget the book because it was so touching to me.
In addition, books are the most accurate sources of information and it will be the same in the future, too. Internet is the other vastest source of information. However, since the concept of copyright does not really exist on the Internet, there are much information that are wrong. Many people do not have responsibility on the Internet, and therefore they are mostly inaccurate. For example, yesterday, I was looking for an information about the global warming, but I could not find it. So I asked one of the people that had been logged on "Yahoo". He said that, to summarize, the global warming is a phenomenon that occurs in the world mainly because of oxygen diminishing. The next day, I went to my school and gave a speech about it. Everyone laughed at me, and I got a poor grade in Science.
Lastly, it is a far-fetched statement that people will not use books because the speed of development of our society is not that fast. I mean, of course, our society is advancing in a very fast speed. Yet, it is not so fast to replace books with other methods. For instance, my language arts teacher told me a story. Fifteen years ago, his dream was a translator, but one day, he heard that he could not be a translator because there will be a very smart machine that will translate one language into another. Because he heard that story, he gave up his dream of becoming a international translator. However, now, differently from the story, that kind of machine is not developed yet. Our technology is evolving very fast, but not to replace books with other means in twenty years.
Yes, books have been used for a long time since the ancient times ,and are old fashioned way of storing and getting information. In spite of those facts, since people always have rememberance with their books, information from books are usually more precise than from any other means, and the pace of growth of technology is not that fast to replace books with other means, books will surely be used in the future of twenty years later. |
