题目内容:

阅读理解 JK Rowling, the Harry Potter author, has signed a deal with Little, Brown and Company, to publish her first ever novel for adults, which is set to become one of the most anticipated (期望的) book in years.

The deal means that Rowling's long-standing relationship with Bloomsbury, the London-based publisher that launched (发行) the Harry Potter books, has come to an end, at least in terms of new works by the

author.

Rowling is keeping her fans guessing about the characters and plot of her new book. She only said that the new novel will be nothing like the Harry Potter series, which was sold over 30 million copies in the UK alone. She thought that with the move from children's to adult fiction, a switch to a new publisher seemed

like a natural and reasonable step.

She said, "Although I've enjoyed writing it every bit as much, this book will be very different from the

Harry Potter series. The freedom to explore a new field is a gift that Harry's success has brought me."

Ian Rankin, the Edinburgh-based author whose highly-successful detective novels are also set in the

city, suggested Rowling's book will be a crime novel.

"Wouldn't it be funny if JK Rowling's first novel for adults turned out to be a crime story set in

Edinburgh?" he said.

Industry insiders guessed that the deal is worth more than £5 million and the new book is expected to come out later this year.

A spokesman said, "JK Rowling's audience is vast and her position is unique. Harry Potter books were a global success and her fans are very loyal. Children that were eight, nine, or ten when the books first

came out in the 1990s are now in their 20s. Plenty of adults, loved the books regardless of whether they

had children, so the potential market for her is huge."1. What does the text mainly tell us?
