ALTERNATIVE CONCLUSION
I have looked at society and the home for reasons and suggested one solution
to the problem. In conclusion, I could say that the problem is an indication of
the attitude of people in general and not just that of scholars. Any possible
solutions will have to reach far and wide into society. (53 words)

6.38 AGE OF THE BOOK
Some say the age of the book has passed: videos, computers, television,
and films will present the information in the future. Others think that
books and written words will still be necessary for spreading information
and in completing education. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.
Note: The words in parentheses are more advanced alternatives.
INTRODUCTION
Printed books as we know them today have served us well for about five
hundred years in spreading information and completing education. In this
essay, I will look at two views and present an opinion. (35 words)
BODY
First, the number of tools used to replace conventional books is increasing by
the day. These devices are becoming more convenient and cheaper. That is
why many feel that written words printed on sheets of paper and made
(bound) into a book simply cannot continue to exist.
Second, however, there are many people who would argue that books will
remain in our lives in their present form. They believe that people will
always want to keep shelves full of books at home and in the office or visit
the local library from time to time. They love the smell and feel of old books
or get excited when a new book is published.
Lastly, in my opinion, the evidence points to the book in its present form
disappearing from our lives. I believe that in the future we will be calling
some other devices “books.” I don’t know what they will look like, but you
would still be able to carry them in your handbag, take them home and cuddle
in bed with one, or buy one as a gift for a friend. (182 words)
CONCLUSION

---

To summarize, it seems that there are two sides to the story, but the chances
(odds) are heavily in favor of the book disappearing. I cannot help but
conclude that we will have to rewrite, rethink, rephrase, and redefine our
definition of a “book” sometime soon. (45 words) (Total words: 262)
