Television and computer games will soon lead to disappearing of books
Our life is constantly changing with the arrival of new technologies. Some people believe that television and computer games will soon replace books.
I think this opinion is wrong. Modern people really often watch TV and play computer games. For some professions, computers have become the main helpers. Many teenagers love playing games on their computers and smartphones. But let us ask ourselves: where do the texts that we upload to our computers, laptops and tablets come from? From books. Books are part of the world cultural heritage. Many films that we watch on TV are based on the works of writers and playwrights. If books disappear, it means that only commercials and football matches will be shown on TV. But people have different intelligence. Some of them love watching or playing sports, while others enjoy reading fiction. Just think of the great importance and value of libraries all over the world! How much knowledge, secrets and discoveries are in them.
So in my opinion, books will always be with us, as long as our civilization exists on this planet.
