[不定项选择题]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(数字版权管理)-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 sympathize with those people.As I wrote earlier this week,my ideal situation would be for publishers to bundle
e-books with printed ones-in much the same way that film studio 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(黑胶唱片),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,
booklovers might even find they get a better experience.
Why does the author believe that the surging sales of ebooks won’t mean the death of the printed book 《》()
A.Because a minority will stick to their love of printed books.
B.Because the majority of book lovers won’t change their minds.
C.Because people always hold nostalgic feelings towards printed books.
D.Because people will return to the printed books as time goes by.

Animal's “Sixth Sense”
A tsunami(海啸)was triggered(引发)by an earthquake in the Indian Ocean in December, 2004.It killed tens of thousands of people in Asia and East Africa. Wild animals,1, seem to have escaped that terrible tsunami. This phenomenon adds weight to notions that they possess a“sixth sense” for2 ,experts said.
Sri Lankan wildlife officials have said the giant waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island's coast clearly 3 wild beasts,with no dead animals found.
“No elephants are dead,not4a dead rabbit. I think animals can5 disaster.
They have a sixth sense. They know when things are happening,”

D. Ratnayake,deputy director of Sri Lanka's Wildlife Department,said about one month after the tsunami attack. The6washed floodwaters up to 2 miles inland at Yala National Park in the ravaged(被 毁坏的)southeast, Sri Lanka's biggest wildlife7and home to hundreds of wild elephants and several leopards(豹).
“There has been a lot of8 evidence about dogs barking or birds migrating before volcanic eruptions(火山爆发)or earthquakes. But it has not been proven ,” said Matthew van Lierop,an animal behavior 9 at Johannesburg Zoo.
“There have been no10studies because you can't really test it in a lab or field setting , ” he told Reuters. Other authorities concurred(同意)with this11.
“Wildlife seem to be able to pick up certain12 ,especially birds…there are many re- ports of birds detecting impending(迫近的)disasters , ” said Clive Walker , who has written several books on African wildlife.
Animals13 rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators(食肉动物).
The notion of an animal “sixth sense”一or14other mythical power一is an enduring one which the evidence on Sri Lanka's ravaged coast is likely to add15.
