1、题目大意

在数字时代，印刷书籍没有必要，书籍可以用电子方式存储，其他人认为印刷书籍将继续在我们的生活中发挥重要作用。讨论双方观点并给出自己的意见。

2、思路解析

这是一道双边类大作文，聊的是纸质书籍是否还有必要。双边类大作文，需要对每个观点分别表达同意或反对，最终的结论就是我的立场，可以是中立（双方都同意或都反对），也可以是单边支持某一方立场。审题时注意两点，一是前者观点存在因果关系，即“因为可以用电子方式储存”，所以“纸质书不在必要”，需要对因果关系进行论证；二是后者观点中限定条件“in our lives”，讨论需要在这个范围中。下面月半鸭和大家一起来看下具体观点。

首先来看前者的合理性，有三方面。

一是电子书确实更易于携带和阅读，人们通过一台手机或其他电子设备就可以储存上千本电子书，不仅可以随时随地进行阅读，重量也远轻于同等数量的书籍。

二是电子书获取更加容易，通过网络或电子商店即可下载，而不用像纸质书得去书店购买或在线下单后等待快递送达。

三是电子书必须要消耗纸张和墨水，因此比纸质书更加环保。

然后再来看后者观点的合理性，有三方面。

一是对于传统的老年人来说，很难掌握电子设备的使用，更不用说搜索和下载电子书，因此纸质刊物依旧是他们主要的阅读来源。

二是长期使用电子屏阅读对于视力和健康危害更大，特别是对青少年来说。考虑到健康问题，很多少儿读物或是学校教材依然以纸质为主。

三是很多读者认为纸质书具备了美感和艺术价值，他们享受触摸纸张的手感和纸质书独有的味道。并且一些保存良好的古老书籍，还会被视作有文化和历史价值，这些都是电子书籍难以提供给读者的。

3、提纲

4、高分范文示例

Innovative technology is progressively rebuilding humans' daily lives in the current era, which is somewhat reflected in the subject of "reading" Others concur that physical books continue to play a vital role, despite claims by some that reading on electronic devices can replace the traditional way. I believe electronic books can replace physical books to some extent. However, printed books would not vanish entirely. 

To begin with, a sizable number of people place a high value on e-books due to the benefits they present. As readers can modify the font size, line spacing, and font style, the customization and reading experience are the primary benefits. Moreover, e-readers include built-in dictionaries; therefore, language learners can increase the speed with which they can look up the meaning of words while reading, resulting in a more effective language-learning process. For example, e-readers, smartphones, and PCs can store thousands of volumes, making them more portable than physical books. Among them, the Kindle, a technical device that offers a variety of book formats, satisfies the aforementioned conditions.

Others, however, believe that printed books have been predominant for centuries and will continue to have an advantage over e-books. The first and foremost reason is the bodily benefits that it can provide. Long-term exposure to blue-emitting electronic screens while reading e-books increases the likelihood of eye strain and vision impairment. But, this can be minimised by reading printed literature. Second, traditional readers, such as the elderly who have read physical books their entire lives, may have difficulty locating e-book resources and find e-readers difficult to operate. In addition, e-reading makes it difficult for readers to focus on the text without being distracted by text messages or advertisements that flash up on the screen. This explains why printed books play such an important role in the school system. Children with underdeveloped frontal lobes and poor self-control lose attention easily. Accordingly, it is proposed that textbooks be printed as opposed to computerised. 

In conclusion, even if e-books have various advantages, I believe physical books, particularly textbooks, will continue to exist.
