Which do you prefer, books reading or online reading?

Descartes once said: the reading of all good books is like a conversation with the finest men of past centuries (Diablo iii Gold). Reading, as a best way to gain knowledge, has earned good popularity over the past centuries. With the development of science and technology, nowadays we may have more choices, like traditional reading and online reading. Were it left to me to choose books reading or online reading, I would not hesitate a moment to choose the latter. As far as I am concerned, online reading is far more convenient than books reading. Here I have several reasons.

Secondly, online reading provides me more personal alternatives. For example, I can choose the background, font size and color at random. If you are bored with the black and white, why not try something attractive. Like I said, more personal alternatives will make reading more interesting.

Thirdly, through reading online, I can share my favorite books with my friends easily. If you choose online reading, you will find that there is always a little bottom somewhere on the page, which allows you to share the book with several friends at the same time. It doesn't matter whether your friends are from the same city or not. He or she will receive a message from you when online. This is an advantage that traditional reading can't have. How can you lend your books to several friends at the same time? You can't. How can you lend your book to a friend who lives in another city? You can't either. It is online reading that makes reading without limits on time and place.

Last but not least, online reading makes information more available. It is obvious that most information we got from traditional books is a little bit old and behind the times. I don't deny the fact that we people do need to read many classics to improve ourselves. But most time, especially in today's modern society, I am more eager to know what is happening around me. I want to know more details about the explosion happened in Nanjing. I am also concerned about the natural disasters in Zhouqu, Gansu province. Yes, these messages will appear on the daily newspaper, but why do you prefer waiting a whole day instead of reading current affairs online? Here is my point that online reading allows me to get the latest news and information so that more information is available to me.

If you're still complaining about your heavy books, why not take full use of your cell phones and laptops? Let's enjoy reading online together.
