Gone are the days of lugging⁷ around a stack of books for reading on the train or plane; now, one small tablet can provide you with a veritable library. The light weight and range of options make an e-reader a commuter⁸ or traveler's best friend. In addition, e-readers allow you to clean up space in your home. E-readers also can motivate readers to read just a bit more. When you are holding a physical book, sometimes you see that you have only made a small dent¹ and it is easier to be distracted; with an e-reader, you are given a percentage and natural human instinct tends to read. 

出行好伴侣电子书节省空间，易于携带，种类多，而且还可以激励读者读一点，再读一点，因为没有纸质书的厚重感，所以读电子书心理压力小一点，也会促进读者多读一点， 而且电子书的进度条大大激发了读者的阅读欲望！
