武邑中学2014-2015高三一轮复习单元检测题31 第一部分 阅读理解 （共两节，满分30分） （共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A, B, C和D)中，选出最佳选项，该项涂黑。 A Miscioscio, 60, a marketing consultant in Pearl River, N Y, says she is addicted to Sony e-reader. She buys or borrows a print book only when it’s not available digitally. She says most of her friends and relatives have also switched to e-books for the convenience and lower prices. Last winter, she notes, she vacationed in Costa Rica and says “at least 75% of those reading were reading electronically. I was shocked to see people taking their e-readers onto the loungers(躺椅) in the pool. Meier, 43, a marketing director in Beaver Falls, prefers her books on paper, no screens. After working on a computer all day, she says, “I want a book in my hand. Turning over its pages is my way of knowing its time to relax and slow down.” Meier, whos sticking with physical books, doesnt consider herself any kind of digital “resister.” “Im comfortable with all forms of technology,” she says. “However, when it comes to books, I suppose Im a traditionalist. My preference will always be the real thing.” To her, part of the joy of reading is the book itself: “pulling it from the shelf, inspecting the cover, letting it fall open to a random page.” Both have lots of company. Statistics show that e-book sales grew 43% last year, but thats a slowdown compared with the triple-digit increases in recent years. E-books remain the fastest-growing part of the book market but account for only about 20% of all sales, reported by publishers. Miscioscio and Meier are at opposite ends of a book business in transition. Even though e-book sales have grown more than 4,000% since 2008, its unlikely that physical books will disappear the way records did in the music industry. 21. Miscioscio will ______ when a book is not available digitally. A. give up reading such kind of books B. switch to the book of lower price C. buy the book on paper D. take an e-reader onto the loun
