Books are steadily increasing in size: the average number of pages has grown by 25% over the last 15 years.A study of more than 2,500 books appearing on New York Times bestseller reveals that the average length has increased from 320 pages in 1999 to 400 pages in 2014.James Finlayson, who carried out the study, believed "there’s a relatively consistent pattern of growth year on year".For Finlayson, much of this shift can be explained by the industry’s shift towards digital."When you pick up a large book in a shop," he says, "you can sometimes be intimidated.But if you have a big book on a Kindle (e-book), that’s not a consideration."
选项
答案
书本的厚度一直在持续增长:在过去15年里,平均页数增加了25%。一项针对《纽约时报》畅销书榜上超过2,500本图书的研究表明,书的平均页数从1999年的320页增加到了2014年的400页。该研究的执行者,詹姆斯·芬雷森认为“这是一个逐年稳定持续增长的模式” 。芬雷森相信,这种变化很大程度上是因为产业的重点向电子化方向的转移。“如果你在书店里拿起一本很厚的书,”他说道,“你有时可能会被吓到。但是如果你在Kindle电子阅读器上阅读这本厚书的话,就不会有这种感觉了。”
