hi Ozlemg
don`t you think that construction in C
as either...or as... is not ||.
better version may be: either as ...or as.
can you share you ideas?

This is how I analysed the answer choices.
A) as either (EB) or (DC)
B) either as (EB) or (DC) {"as" is missing before DC}
C) as either (EB) or as (DC) {"as" is placed before either}
D) as either (EB) or as (DC) {"as" is placed before either} similar to choice C
E) either as (EB) or (DC) {"as" is missing before DC} similar to choice B

Best!!!
A

The construction should be :
A. ................ either as X or as Y
B. ................ as either X or Y
The largest trade-book publisher in the United States has announced the creation of a new digital imprint division, under which it will publish about 20 purely digital works to be sold online as either electronic books or downloadable copies that can be printed upon purchase.

(A) works to be sold online as either electronic books or...... CORRECT

(B) works to sell them online, either as electronic books or...... INCORRECT "AS" REQUIRED

(C) works and it will sell them online as either electronic books or as...... INCORRECT "AS" NOT REQUIRED

(D) works, and selling them online as either electronic books or as...... INCORRECT "AS" NOT REQUIRED

(E) works, and it will sell them online either as electronic books or...... INCORRECT "AS" REQUIRED
