阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项(ABCD)中,选出最佳选项。

  The number of people subscribing to(订阅) newspapers may be reducing as they flock to the Internet, but electronic book readers won't give up the market for ink, paper, glue and binding anytime soon

  After years of promises and false starts, booksellers and technology companies are diving into the world of digital booksSony Corp is selling the Reader Digital Book for 299, while giant online shopping company Amazoncom offers the Kindle for 399

  New readers(电子阅读器) are lighter than the average paper novels, easy on the eyes and let readers carry around as many as 200 titles in hardware that weighs less than a pound

  But to some people, there's something missing.“It's, I guess, the feeling of holding a book that someone really put a lot of effort into writing, and you kind of lose that a little bit with a digital product, said Katy Farina, 21She was browsing at the Borders bookstore near Madison Square GardenAs shoppers lined up at closing time, the subtle, comforting aroma(芳香) of books permeated(弥漫) the store

  “It feels real, whereas the reader kind of separates you a little bit from the story, Farina saidHarry Howe, who had picked up a book, said he might use an e-book reader for blog or websites for materials that he wanted to read while away from home, but not for reading a novel

  “It's just not an experience that I'm yet comfortable with, said Howe, 55, On the other hand, I didn't grow up reading things on various websites.”

  Farina said she would like a reader for travelling because she would not have to transport so many books.“To put 10 books on your Sony reader or on your Kindle is a lot better than carrying 10 books, she said
