In today's English class, students had a speech competition. They talked about whether e-books should take the place of print books. The following are the speeches given by two students.
Joshua Lee:
While many people argue that e-books don't feel the same as "real" books, we should consider that the printing industry does a lot of harm to our1. Producing books means cutting down millions of trees for paper, and the processes of printing requires a great deal of energy. E-books need no papers at all. They will probably2our use of energy and natural resources.
3 e-books allow people to get information more easily. E-books can be stored and selected from huge digital libraries. These libraries can hold many more books than a traditional bookstore or library can People can quickly find and read their books on an e-reader at any time and in any place.
Joy Pamnani
I strongly believe that print books must4. In my opinion, e-books have many disadvantages. E-books aren't as environmentally friendly as you think. A common argument used by e-book supporters is that e-books save paper. But isn't it also true that there's more carbon being let out by the electronic devices(设备) ?
Since you have to spend extra money on those devices before you can buy and read e-books, they aren't5at all. Besides, you can't easily write notes on an e-reader, and you can't read anything when they run out of battery.
E-books are unhealthy too. The light given off by these devices can lead to6problem. A study showed it took e-book readers an average of ten minutes longer to fall asleep than those who read print books.
The inhaler(喷雾剂) was lying there on the table. Cassie froze.
"Oh no!" she breathed. "Not again!"
She looked at the little green con the cooker-12:17. The train would leave at 12:34 and her grandpa had been gone around four minutes. Could she-if she ran like a racehorse get to the station before he got on the train?There was no time to lose. She grabbed her jacket, her keys and her purse. Her fingers mfast to tie her shoes, but too fast to be accurate. She opened the front door and shut it heavily behind her.
Her bbegan to work fast, Which is the quickest way to find him?Should I gwhich route he has taken and may be lucky enough to catch up with him?Or should I just get to the station the fastest possible way and hope to be there when he arrives?But there are two entrances to the station. He might take e, What should I do?"
Cassie was worried about her grandfather. As she ran through the shopping centre, she pictured him sitting on the train, and then shis breath becoming difficult, and his face turning pale. He would search for the inhaler and it wouldn't be in his pocket.
A man was setting out a table in front of his cafe. There was no space between him and the table. She ran into him and knocked him down. "Sorry!" she tried to call out as she raced past him, but she had so little breath that she only made a very wsound. She knew he didn't hear her, but she couldn't stop.
At last she was at the station. She looked at her watch. It was 12:30 and she still hadn't seen her grandfather.
That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in the city I lived. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked. I thought seriously about giving up both acting and the life in this awful place.
As I walked down the empty street under tall buildings. I felt very small and cold.
"Run!" I told myself and began to do so, both to keep warm and keep away from any possible danger.
About a block from my flat. I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun, but the street was empty. The noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. I didn't realize what the noise had been until I reached my flat and unlocked the door. It had been my wallet falling to the street.
I wasn't cold or tired any more. I ran out of the door and back to where I had heard the noise. Although I searched the street for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard a rubbish truck stop next to me, A voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name?The door opened and a man jumped out. "Is this what you're looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.
It was nearly 3 a. m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night. But I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life.
