模块综合测评(四) .阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分) A Though in a digital age，college students nowadays are still holding fast to traditional books.According to the National Association of College Stores，digital books make up just under 3% of textbook sales，although the association expects that share to grow to 10% to 15% by 2014 as more titles are made available as e-books.However，three-quarters of the students，who grew up learning from print books，say that they are unwilling to give up the ability to turn over quickly between chapters，write in the edges and highlight passages. The new technology has produced various options for students.College Booksellers，which operates 636 campus bookstores nationwide，is now marketing its new software application，which allows students to read e-textbooks on PCs.The company introduced the free application last summer in hopes of attracting more students to buy its electronic textbooks.“Now the biggest barrier is getting them to try it，” said the companys vice president. But not every textbook is available in digital or rental format.Generally，an e-textbook is cheaper than a used book，though more expensive than a rental.The expense of college textbooks has become a great concern and teachers from over 40 colleges nationwide are encouraged to assign texts that are less expensive，or to offer them free online.As the buy-back price drops greatly and quickly，some professors suggest that the book stores should not have the last say and there should be something for students to decide by themselves. 【语篇解读】　本文为说明文。虽然现在已经进入数字时代，但大多数大学生仍然钟爱传统纸质书籍。 1．College students prefer traditional books mainly because they ______.
