【题目】请认真阅读下面有关“有声读物”（audio books）的图表及相关文字，并按照要求用 英语写一篇 150 词左右的文章。

An audio book is a recording of a text being read. Audio books are considered a valuable tool. Digital innovation isn’t just changing the way audio books are created, packaged and sold. It’s starting to reshape the way readers consume literature.

Like many young people, Tony Chou, a 25-year-old software engineer in Shanghai, never used to read much. He barely cracked a book in college and would read one or two a year on vacation, at most. But in the past year, he’s finished 10 books. He listens to audio in pieces throughout the day on his iPhone during his morning workout, on his 20-minute-trip to work, and while he’s cooking dinner or cleaning up. Before he falls asleep, he switches to an e-book of the same story on his Kindle, and starts reading right where the narrator left off.

Answer 1

【答案】In recent years, audio books have been gaining popularity at an amazing speed. Many users have developed a habit of listening to books, which contributes to the rapid expansion of the audio book market.

There are a variety of reasons accounting for this trend. First, the great convenience brought about by audio books makes them appealing to many people, as they can enjoy books regardless of time, location or noise level. Besides, audio books are easily available because people are allowed to download audio books free online. Moreover, for those with special needs, such as the blind, audio books are fantastic innovation.

Personally, I prefer to read print books. Print books can give you unique experiences that audio books cannot offer. I can read at my own pace, stopping wherever I like to reflect on some enlightening sentences.

Furthermore, it’s much easier to quickly find what i want in a print book-especially something like a dictionary.

In short, print books are still my first choice.（167 字）
