Sample Answer
While it is undeniable that the internet has transformed the way we access and consume information, I believe books will not be entirely supplanted. Books possess a tangible quality that fosters deep engagement and concentration, which is often elusive in the digital realm, rife with distractions. Furthermore, the sensory experience of holding a book—the texture of the pages, the smell of the ink—can invoke nostalgia and a profound connection to the material. Additionally, books often serve as important cultural artifacts, encapsulating human knowledge and creativity in a permanent format. Although the internet offers a plethora of information at our fingertips and facilitates rapid dissemination, the enduring nature of books ensures their relevance, especially in contexts that require reflective thought and in-depth understanding.
