三、完形填空
Times change! I was sad I heard that the Bright Bookstore was closing. The bookstore had been in the neighbourhood for 50 years, and it was a great place where people could connect with each other through their love of books.
When I met Tim, the store's owner, he told me it was difficult to run a traditional bookstore. Many young people reading e-books or reading online.
Childhood memories came back to me so clearly. I often went to the with my friends. We looked at the new books and hours reading there. Tim encouraged us to share our ideas by writing them on a large board.
A few months later, I was back and was surprised to see that the Bright Bookstore was still open for business. It seemed as old as before, but inside it was like a world. In an area, a reading event was going on. Nearby, some readers were sharing their ideas on a screen the large board. Some were reading on computers. It even had a coffee shop selling nice drinks and food. Clearly, the Bright Bookstore was in good, creative hands.
Tim told me that there were community events in the coffee shop such as reading events and even concerts and movie nights. The bookstore was turned a place where people not only shared ideas but also found a feeling of community and acceptance.
“Well, as you can see, technology and creativity have brought my old bookstore into the 21st century! I'm so glad to see that I wanted for the community is still here,” said Tim.
No matter how times change, there are always people who love reading. With the development of technology, bookstores should also change in a creative way.
