Include these ideas: for and against points and support your argument with examples and facts. In recent years, technology has played an important role in our lives and it is involved in almost every part of it. In this essay, I will discuss whether e-books should replace traditional books. It is true that technology is very vital in different fields. Firstly, technology helps us a lot in saving time to do other things. Secondly, it is very useful in many ways. You can use it in your job for communication purposes. Finally, there is always something to do with technology wherever you go. One the one hand, many people argue that e-books are better than traditional ones in so many ways. Firstly, e-books are so much easier to use than normal ones. In simple terms, you can find any information on search engines without any efforts. In addition, having books on devices will make students’ and teachers’ lives easier as problems with not bringing the book or leaving at home will not emerge. Moreover, books are lighter than traditional books, so students will not suffer from back pain. On the other hand, many other people think that traditional books are better than e- books because traditional books are cheaper than e-books. It is also clear that reading from screens affects your eyesight. Also, some people love having an actual book rather than a book on devices. In conclusion, | believe that e-books are better than normal books because it is more fun to study with it. All in all, both e-books and traditional books have advantages and disadvantages.i: Introduction: Who requested the report? * i) is di th oa What is the title of the report? * 11) su When to submit the report? § 28) 20 os Facts and Finding Write general facts and findings about the topic.
