Don't you think your schoolbag is too heavy to bear? The e-schoolbag will free you from
the weight.
It is said that e-schoolbags are going to be brought into use in Chinese middle schools
soon. An experiment with several hundred e-schoolbags will begin in seven cities: Beijing,
Shanghai, Dalian, Shenzhen, Chongqing, Taiyuan and Shijiazhuang. And the e-schoolbags
are going to cover all over China if the experiment shows to be successful. In fact, the
e-schoolbag should perhaps be called an e-notebook. It is a small hand-held computers
for school students.
Heavy schoolbags have long been a serious problem for school students. The average
schoolbag of middle school students weighs up to 5 kilos. But the e-schoolbag will change
everything. It is much lighter than a usual schoolbag, weighing under 1 kilo.
Also, it is no bigger than a usual book, but it can still hold all the things for study, such
as a textbook, a notebook and exercise book. They could be made into chips that are as
small as a stamp. The students can read the text page by page on the screen. They can
still take notes using a special electronic pen. If they want to know the meaning or the
pronunciation of a new word, or even e-mail their teachers, it's just a press of a button.
In some foreign countries, it is becoming common. But it is hard to tell when people
will receive this new form of study. Some say that e-textbooks can easily be broken,
some say that it is not good to students' eyesight to look at the screen for long.But only
time will tell.
