To answer this question use the phrases from ex. 77, p. 105. (Books are still popular because they are interesting, they are beautifully decorated and well illustrated, they are easy to use. Books are less dangerous for your health than CD books. Printed books are less noisy, they are attractive, full of joy and adventures though it is the most ancient media.)
