重庆一书店论斤卖书

Few days ago, a bookstore in Chongqing sold books by kilogram. The prize of some books were only 11 yuan for one kilogram. Why were the books so cheap? The owner of the bookstore told us the reason. Many readers read the e-books online and fewer and fewer readers would like to buy a paper book. 

Paper books and e-books, which one do you like? 

Some people are fans of e-books. Firstly, e-book is more convenient than paper-book. Nowadays, almost all people have phones or computers, so they can just download e-books immediately. Wherever they go, they don’t have to take a heavy paper book but just have a phone can reading. Secondly, e-book is much cheaper than paper book. If they need to buy paper books, they have to pay a lot of money on them. However,they can search e-books on the Internet and just need to pay little or even get e-books we want for free. 

While others still like reading the paper books. They love the feeling and smelling of the paper when they turn the page. They don’t mind the numbers and prices of the books.They enjoy the sense of satisfaction when they see the books they have already read. The e-books will never bring them such kind of feeling.
