Now, should a library be a quiet place to read a book or a lively centre where you can hang out and drink coffee? And can it be both? Author Tracy Chevalier who is also chairman of the Society of Authors, told MoFo News she is worried library is sacrificing books in favor of internet access and other facilities. Lena Techaty has mom.
Where I live? I have just a very small public library and, urn, I’ve noticed over the years that there are fewer and fewer shelves and more and more computers that’s just slowly taking over and there are fewer and fewer places to sit in and look at any books and there are fewer books.
Is she right? Are books disappearing from our library shelves? Lena’s figures show that in the UK last year, while people visiting libraries increased, the number of books in libraries actually fell by 3%. And the amount spent on books and other reading material also dropped, com- pared that to near 20% rise in the money spent on online resource.
选项
A、The Development of Library in the UK
B、More Books and Fewer Computers in the Library
C、More Computers and Fewer Books in the Library
D、The Government’s Growing Investment in the Library
答案
C
解析
本题考查的是考生是否领会了本文的真正意图。a项(英国图书馆的发展)和d项(政府不断增加对图书馆的投入)在文中也都提到了,不过纵观全文我们可以看出,作者对英国图书馆出现的这种“新发展”并不欣赏,而且政府对图书馆的投资虽然日益增多,但这些资金却没有用在购置新图书上,而这也正是作者所担忧的问题。图书馆的书籍越来越少,电子设备、咖啡厅等休闲设施越来越多。作者担心图书馆已不再是静下心来看书的好地方了。所以b项(图书馆里书籍越来越多,计算机越来越少)是不正确的,而c项(图书馆里计算机越来越多,书籍越来越少)是正确答案。
