V. Reading.
a) Read the following article and then answer the questions about the CD_ROM and the books.
Incredible, but True!!
All the information in the enormous Britanic Encyclopaedia now comes on one small disk. Which do you prefer – the CR-ROM or the set of 30 books? Let’s compare them.
The CD-ROM is smaller and higher than the books and it is cheaper. We think it’s more interesting, too, because it has video and sound – you can hear animals, musical instruments and famous pople talking. So if you think the 30 books are good, we think the CD-ROM is better!.
