问题    A number of recent books have reworked subjects, forms and writing techniques. Today’s children read stories about divorce, death, drugs, air pollution, political extremism and violence. Relying on the magic of the illustrator, all kinds of books are being published.
   Before they know to read, babies can play with books made of cloth or books made to take in the bath. Later on, they are given picture books that may be cubical (立方形的) or triangular, outsized or very small. They also like work-books which come with water colours and paintbrushes, and comic books (漫画册) filled with details where they have to spot a figure hidden among thousands of others.
   Not that the traditional children’s books are being neglected. There are still storybooks where the pages pop up (跳起) when they are opened; to make a forest or a castle. Among the latest ideas are interactive stories where readers choose the plot (情节) or ending they want, and books on CD, which are very popular in rich industrialized countries.
   The public has enthusiastically greeted the wealth of creativity displayed by publishers. "Previously, giving a child a book is often seen as improper, says Canadian author Marie- France Hebert. Her books, published by a French-language publisher, sell like hot cakes in hundreds of thousands of copies. "There’s a real appetite for reading these days and I try to get across to children the passion for reading which is food for the mind and the heart, like a medicine or a vitamin. "
Which of the following statements is true?

选项 A、Books made of cloth came out earlier than picture books.
B、When you buy work-books you will be given free comic books.
C、Traditional children’s books are not being removed from market.
D、Babies cannot have books while taking a bath.

答案C

解析 由原文Not that the traditional children’s books are being neglected (传统的儿童读物也并没有受到冷落)可知[C]正确。由原文Before they know how to read,babies can play with books made of cloth or books made to take in the bath 可知[D]错误。又由原文可知,婴儿小时候可读布书,稍大时读故事书,但并不表明在历史上布书先于故事书出现 (Books made of cloth came out earlier than picture books),因此[A]错误。原文没有[B]项的证据。因此答案选[C]。
