Print books may be under siege from the rise of e-books, but they have a tenacious hold on a particular group: children and toddlers. Their parents are insisting this next generation of readers spend their early years with old-fashioned books. This is the case even with parents who themselves are die-hard downloaders of books onto Kindles, iPads, laptops and phones. They freely acknowledge their digital double standard, saying they want their children to be surrounded by print books, to experience turning physical pages as they learn about shapes, colors and animals. Parents also say they like cuddling up with their child and a book, and fear that a shiny gadget might get all the attention. Also, if little Joey is going to spit up, a book may be easier to clean than a tablet computer.
As the adult book world turns digital at a faster rate than publishers expected, sales of e-books for titles aimed at children under 8 have barely budged. They represent less than 5 percent of total annual sales of children’s books, several publishers estimated, compared with more than 25 percent in some categories of adult books.
Many print books are bought as gifts, since the delights of an Amazon gift card are lost on most 6-year-olds. Children’s books are also a bright spot for brick-and-mortar bookstores, since parents often want to flip through an entire book before buying it, something they usually cannot do with e-book browsing. A study commissioned by HarperCollins in 2010 found that books bought for 3- to 7-year-olds were frequently discovered at a local bookstore—38percent of the time.
And here is a question for a digital era debate: is anything lost by taking a picture book and converting it to an e-book? Junko Yokota, a professor and director of the Center for Teaching Through Children’s Books at National Louis University in Chicago, thinks the answer is yes, because the shape and size of the book are often part of the reading experience.

本题解析:
文章最后一段话强调了父亲希望孩子读纸质书籍,但从倒数第二段“He himself reads on Kindle, iPad and iPhone…”可以看出父亲自己阅读电子书,因此最后一段实际上举例说明了家长对使用电子产品的双重标准和让孩子使用纸质书籍的倾向性。所以B项为正确选项。

本题解析:
本题需要综合文章第五,第六段,第七段的信息来回答。第五段提出,尽管费时费力,出版商们将增加纸质书籍的数量。而文中没有提到这是因为“children’s e-books”需求增加,所以A选项错误。第五段提到许多出版商认为家长“prefer the print version”,第六段中麦克米伦儿童出版社董事“Jon Yaged”指出“There’s definitely a predisposition to print”。由此可以推断,出版商们会增加“picture books”的产量。紧接着在第七段给出一个纽约企业家的例子,他希望自己的孩子可以“grow up with”纸质书籍。因此可以看出B选项说出版商将会增印纸质书籍由于家长希望孩子“be surrounded by print books”是正确选项。C和D选项不是“publisher’s opinion.”,因此可以排除。
