Ielts 雅思 口语全攻略 Ideas and Examples for ielts speaking Jeremy Chiron

What effect might the Internet have on the future of newspapers and magazines?

Well, some people say that newspapers might disappear in the future．They may be replaced by mobile phones and computers．Already nowadays, fewer people read magazines and newspapers compared to the past. There is no doubt that the sales of newspapers will continue to drop in the next few years．Are they going to vanish（＝disappear)? I am skeptical because a lot of people find it pleasant to read the news on paper.

   How might attitudes to reading change in the future?
   

Well, I am afraid that people might read less in the future, because there are so many other hobbies available nowadays. Young people already don’t read half as much as the previous generations because they can watch TV or play computer games, or play a lot of different sports．We have a lot of other choices, and people are definitely getting lazier. In the future, people might listen to audio books instead of reading them themselves. People have already started reading online, but it’s not so pleasant for the eyes, and reading a thick book seems scary for many young people…So, yes, I am a little bit pessimistic about the future generations’ attitude towards books and reading.
