[求救] AA100没有思路

brianwangnus

AA100: The following appeared as part of an article in the book section of a newspaper:
“Currently more and more books are becoming available in electronic form—either free-of-charge on the Internet or
for a very low price-per-book on compact disc.* Thus literary classics are likely to be read more widely than ever
before. People who couldn’t have purchased these works at bookstore prices will now be able to read them for little or
no money; similarly, people who find it inconvenient to visit libraries and wait for books to be returned by other
patrons will now have access to whatever classic they choose from their home or work computers. This increase in
access to literary classics will radically affect the public taste in reading, creating a far more sophisticated and learned
reading audience than has ever existed before.”
*A compact disc is a small portable disc capable of storing relatively large amounts of data that can be read by a
computer.
Discuss how well reasoned . . . etc.

此题为黄金80题中AA的106题的变体。
除了找出一点fallacy: The applicability of books in electronic form does not necessarily lead to popularity of literary classics.
此外，没有任何思路，求大NN指教~~~谢谢！

（1）人们不阅读literary classics不是因为价格高和不方便，而是因为其他原因。比如，太难了读不懂之类的。
（2）电子书的出现使其他书变便宜了不代表literary classics也会便宜。可能有特殊的版权保护什么的~~

1. People may read less literary classics simply because their preferences have changed. (now prefer to read scientific novels and fashion magazines etc.)
2. More convenient access to literary classics may in fact discourage people from reading them, since access to other types of media could also be increased. (people watch more online video clips than they read books)
