First Paper
A) Writing (8 Marks)
1Write an essay of not less than TWO (2) paragraphs on ONE only
of the following topics: (Not less than 18 sentences)
If you haven't heard of an e-reader and don't know what it is, then
please permit the following explanation. An e-reader is a device that
allows you to read e-books. An e-book is a book-length publication in
digital form, consisting of text, images, or both, and produced on,
published through, and readable on computers or other electronic
devices. Sometimes, the equivalent of a conventional printed book, e-
books can also be born digital. The Oxford Dictionary of English defines
17
the e-book as “an electronic version of a printed book," but e-books can
and do exist without any printed equivalent. So now you know what an e-
reader is. But you still may be wondering why they put printed books to
shame. E-readers are superior to printed books because they save
space and are environmentally friendly.
They can also provide helpful reading tips and tools that printed
books do not. The typical e-reader allows its user to customize letter
size, font, and line spacing. It also allows highlighting and electronic
bookmarking. Furthermore, it grants users the ability to get an overview
of a book and then jump to a specific location based on that overview.
While these are all nice features, perhaps the most helpful of all is the
ability to get dictionary definitions at the touch of a finger. On even the
most basic e-reader, users can conjure instant definitions without having
to hunt through a physical dictionary.
