　　英語六級仔細閱讀模擬練習：

　　There is a certain inevitability that ebook sales have now overtaken paperback sales on Amazon's US site. Amazon's Kindle 2 is so light and so cheap that it's easy to see why people have rushed to buy it. Though I'm still not keen on the design of the Kindle, it is a vast improvement on its predecessor and certainly tolerable. Beyond the device itself, Amazon has done a great job of rolling out Kindle apps, ensuring that people like me-who have an iPad but not a Kindle-can still join in the fun. Once you're into the Kindle ecosystem, Amazon locks you in tightly-just as Apple does with its iTunes/ iPod ecosystem. It's so easy to buy from Amazon's store and the books are so cheap that it's not worth the effort of going elsewhere.

　　While I remain opposed to Amazon's DRM 數字版權管理-indeed, I'm opposed to DRM on any ebooks-I have to admit that the implementation is so smooth that most Kindle users won't care at all that their ebooks can't be moved to other devices.

　　The ebook trend is nowhere near peaking. Over the next five years we can expect to see more and more readers move away from printed books and pick up ebooks instead. But I don't think that will mean the death of the printed book.

　　There are some who prefer printed books. They like having shelves filled with books they've read and books they plan to read; they like the feel of the book in their hands and the different weights and typefaces and layouts of different titles. In other words, they like the physical form of the book almost as much as the words it contains.

　　I can sympathise with those people. As I wrote earlier this week, my ideal situation would be for publishers to bundle ebooks with printed ones-in much the same way that film studios btmdie DVDs with digital copies of films. There's no reason to think that lovers of printed books will change their minds. There will undoubtedly be fewer of them as time goes by because more people will grow up with ebooks and spend little time with printed ones. However, just as there are people who love vinyl records黑膠唱片, even if they were born well into the CD era, there will still be a dedicated minority who love physical books.

　　Since there are fewer of these people, that will mean fewer bookshops and higher prices for printed books but I don't think the picture is entirely bleak. There is scope for smaller print runs of lavishly designed printed books and bookshops aimed at book lovers, rather than the Stieg Larsson-reading masses. With mainstream readers out of the printed book market, book lovers might even find they get a better experience.

　　1.C。定位：由題幹提示定位到第一段第三句：Though I'm still not keen Oil the design of the Kindle，it is a vast improvement Oil its predecessor and certainly tolerable.

　　詳解：推理判斷題。本題考查對第一段的理解。定位句指出“儘管我還是對Kindle的設計提不起興趣. 但較之第一代確實有了相當大的改進，還是非常不錯的”，即Kindle 2在設計上要優於Kindle l，故答案為 C。A“大多數人購買Kindle 2主要是由於其價格便宜”，文章第一段第二句指出“亞馬遜的電子書Kindle 2 既輕薄又便宜，這也就不難理解人們為何會蜂擁購買”，而非僅僅因為價格原因，故排除;B“本文作者是 APPLE產品的忠實顧客”，文章第一段第四句提到作者有iPad而沒有Kindle，但不能由此推出作者是APPLE 產品的忠實顧客，為過度推斷，故排除;D“在美國，電子書的銷量已經超過了紙質書籍的銷量”，第一段笫一句指出亞馬遜美國站的電子書籍銷量遠遠超過紙質書籍，而非在全美國，故排除。

　　2.c定位：由題幹中的Amazon's DRM定位到第二段第一句：I have to admit that the implementation is so smooth that most Kindle users won't care at all that their ebooks can’t be moved to other devices：

　　詳解：事實細節題。本題考查作者對亞馬遜的數字版權管理持反對態度的原因。定位句提到“我不得不承認安裝過程實在是太便捷了，以至於大多數Kindle使用者並不介意電子書無法安裝到其他裝置上”，由此可知，電子書一旦安裝後，不可以在其他裝置上再次使用，C中的transfer，equipments分別對應定位句中的move和devices，故為答案。A“電子書只能在亞馬遜網站上購買”原文並未提及，故排除;B“Kindle電子 書與其他電子閱讀裝置不相容”是對定位句的曲解，故排除;D“在Kindle 2上安裝的電子書不能隨意編輯” 原文並未提及，故排除。

　　3.B。定位：由題幹中的trend of ebooks定位到原文第三段第一句：The ebook trend is nowhere near Deaking. 詳解：事實細節題。本題考查電子書的發展趨勢。定位句提到，電子書的發展趨勢正在無限接近頂峰。換言之，電子書的發展趨勢很快就會接近頂峰，故B為答案。A“電子書的發展趨勢很快就會停下來”、C “電子書的發展趨勢在紙質書消失時將達到頂峰”和D“電子書的發展趨勢已經達到頂峰”均為定位句的曲 解，故排除。

　　4.A。定位：由題幹中的the death of the printed book定位到第五段最後一句：However，just as there are people who love vinyl records，even if they were born well into the CD era，there will still be a dedicated minority who love physical books.

　　詳解：事實細節題。本題考查作者認為電子書不會造成紙質書籍消亡的原因。定位句提到“然而，正如有些生活在CD時代卻依然熱愛黑膠唱片的人一樣，會有少數人仍然堅定地愛著紙質書”，由此可知，仍有一部分人會堅持購買紙質書籍，故答案為A。第五段第四句指出“隨著時間的流逝，這群人的數量無疑會 減少，因為更多的人將養成電子閱讀習慣，在紙質書上花費的時問將越來越少”，由此可知大部分書籍愛好者會改變閱讀習慣，而非堅持原來的選擇，故排除B“大部分紙質書籍愛好者不會改變選擇”;C“因為人們對於紙質書籍總是抱有懷舊情懷”和D“隨著時間的流逝，人們會重新選擇閱讀紙質書籍”，在原文中均未提及，故排除。

　　5.C。定位：由題幹中的the future of printed books和選項定位到最後一段第二句：There is scope for smaller print runs of lavishly designed printed books and bookshops aimed at book lovers.rather than the Stieg Larsson—reading masses.

　　詳解：事實細節題。本題考查紙質書的發展趨勢。由定位句可知，面向大眾群體的斯泰格拉爾森式閱讀將被淘汰，取而代之的是針對愛書者而設的裝幀精美、數量不多的印刷本和書店。C中的small quantity和better quality分別對應原文的smaller print，lavishly designed，故為答案。第五段第一句提到“理想的情況是出版商把電子書和印刷本捆綁出售”，而非未來的趨勢，A“紙質書籍會和電子書捆綁出售”為過度推斷，故排 除;第五段最後一句指出“還會有一小部分人購買紙質書籍”，故排除B“紙質書籍會從市場上消失”;D“紙質書籍會迎合大眾做出調整”原文並未提及，故排除。
