With smartphones and e-readers becoming more common, some people worry that the days of paper books are coming to an end. But a recent survey has shown that traditional books are still popular among readers. Nielsen found that more than 7 percent paper books were sold in the UK in 2016 compared with the year before, while sales of their digital rivals(競爭對手)dropped by 4 percent.

So what is behind 2016’s print comeback? Nielsen’s survey found that it is young people who preferred paper books to e-books. In another study, more than 60 percent of young people said they preferred printed books to e-books. The most popular reason given was “I like to hold the product.”

Steve Bohme, the research director of Nielsen Book Research UK, explained that young people were using books as a break from their daily electronic devices(電子設(shè)備). “We are seeing that reading paper books is a respite(緩解), particularly for young people who are so busy digitally.” he said.

It is not just the British youth who prefer print books. The story is the same in other countries. The main reasons were that when reading e-books, students are easily distracted(分心). Some also ended up with headaches or sore eyes. In addition. Printed books can bring a very different reading experience. Some students said that they get a sense of achievement when they finish reading a paper book.
