Question: How do you think technology has changed the way people read?

Sample Answer (The AREA technique):

Answer: Technology has changed the way people read by providing more options and convenience.

Reason: With the rise of e-readers, audiobooks, and digital libraries, people can access books anytime and anywhere. This can make it easier for people to read and discover new books and genres.

Example: For example, I can download an e-book on my phone and read it while commuting or waiting for an appointment. This convenience can encourage more people to read and make it easier to fit reading into a busy schedule.

Alternative: While technology has made reading more accessible, it can also be a source of distraction and reduce the amount of time people spend reading. Additionally, there are concerns about the impact of screen time on eye health and sleep quality. An alternative approach could be to balance digital reading with physical books or to limit screen time before bed to promote healthy sleep habits.
