You are going to read a list of headings and a text about the amazing success of the novel The Da Vinci Code.
A. The marketing of the novel
B. The value of the novel
C. The successful distribution channel is a helper
D. The special writing style attracts the reader successfully
E. Feedback from the seller
F. Chain reaction of the novel
Two years ago this month, Doubleday published a historical thriller with an announced first printing of 85,000 and high hopes that a little-known writer named Dan Brown would catch on with the general public. "We surely expected to have a huge success, but I don’t think anyone dreamed it would become a historic publication," says Stephen Rubin, president and publisher of the Doubleday Broadway Publishing Group.
(41)______.
If the "Harry Potter" books stand as the essential popular read for young people, then "The Da Vinci Code" has captured the crown for grown-ups. A word-of-mouth sensation from the moment it came out, Brown’s controversial mix of storytelling and speculation remains high on best-seller lists even as it begins its third year since publication.
(42)______.
Twenty-five million books, in 44 languages, are in print worldwide and no end is in sight. Booksellers expect "The Da Vinci Code" to remain a best-seller well into 2005. A planned film version by Oscar-winning director Ron Howard should bring in even more readers. And at a time when consumers are supposedly minding their budgets, sales for the $24.95 hardcover have been so good that Doubleday still has set no date for a paperback.
(43)______.
"It’s been our No. 1 fiction book for two years in a row, and I can’t remember another time that happened," said Bob Wietrak, vice president of merchandising for Barnes Noble Inc. "People come into our store all the time and ask for it or ask for books that are like it."
(44)______.
Thanks to "The Da Vinci Code", about the only books that seem able to keep up are Brown’s previous novels. "Deception Point," first released in 2001, now has 3.7 million copies in print, according to Simon & Schuster, Brown’s previous publisher. "Angels and demons," published in 2000 and featuring "Da Vinci" protagonist Robert Langdon, has more than 8 million copies in print.
(45)______.
The unprecedented success of "The Da Vinci Code" has been helped by wide access, with the book on sale everywhere from Wal-Mart to airports to supermarkets, often proving more popular than the mass market paperbacks available at the same outlets.
"The Da Vinci Code" has also thrived during a time when both literary and commercial novels struggled, when a tight economy, competition from other media and election-year tensions drove the public to nonfiction works or away from books altogether. Publishers and booksellers say Brown’s novel has worked by combining narrative excitement and provocative -and disputed-historical detail.
选项
答案
A
解析
最具迷惑性的选项是F,但是仔细阅读就会发现这个选项其实是不合适的,因为chain reaction指的是小说的连锁反应,拍电影可能被算作反应之一,但是整段内容并不是围绕这个话题展开,它不能概括所有数据所表达的内容。文章的第三段一开始便给了一些客观的数据,如44种语言,2500万册。接下来又谈到曾获奥斯卡金奖的导演罗恩.霍华德正在筹划拍摄小说电影版,以及小说的精装书卖得很好,书商暂不打算推出平装本等等。总结全段大意,无非作者想要告诉我们小说的大致的一个营销状况,小说很畅销,而且吸引了电影界的人,小说的精彩使得人们很少在意它精装本的高价了。如果我们熟悉marketing 这个单词,便可容易地选出正确的答案。
