问题     For kids who are exposed to books at home, the loss of a library is sad. But for kids who come from environments where people don’t read, the loss of a library is a tragedy that might keep them from ever discovering the joys of reading—or from gathering the kind of information that will decide their lot in life. Jonathan Kozol, for decades an advocate for disadvantaged children, has observed that school libraries "remain the clearest window to a world of pure satisfactions and enticements that most children in poor neighborhoods will never know."
   Kids deprived of access to good libraries are also being kept from developing the information skills they need to keep up in workplaces that are increasingly dependent on rapidly changing information. The ability to conduct research is probably the most essential skill today’s students can have. The knowledge students acquire in school is not going to serve them throughout their lifetimes.  Many of them will have four to five careers in a lifetime. It will be their ability to navigate information that will matter.
选项
答案     如果孩子在家有书读，没有图书馆依然是一大憾事。然而，如果一个孩子周围的人从不看书，那么没有图书馆可去则是一个灾难，因为他们可能永远无法体会读书的乐趣了，更不可能从中获得可以改变其命运的知识。乔纳森?科佐几十年来都在为弱势儿童争取各种利益，她指出孩子们依然只能通过学校图书馆这扇最明亮的窗户才能感受到纯粹的乐趣和吸引，而这一点是很多贫困地区的孩子们所不能体会的。
   不仅如此，现代职场越来越有赖于瞬息万变的信息。所以，倘若孩子不能到好的图书馆看书，那么他们就不可能获得足够的知识和技巧来应对这一切。如今的学生必需的一种技能是要能进行调查研究，而从学校习得的知识偶尔也会显得捉襟见肘。他们中很多人一生将会从事四到五种不同的工作，因此，关键在于他们是否有能力驾驭各种信息。
