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 library is sacrificing books in favor of internet access and other facilities.
B、More and more people go to the library reading a book.
C、There are more and more computers in the library to facilitate the book index for the readers.
D、The number of the booking in the library has increased.
答案
A
解析
本题考查的是考生对细节的理解。b项(越来越多的人去图书馆看书)是不正确的,因为文中明确提到虽然每年来图书馆的人数上升了,但是图书的数量却下降了 3%。因此,推断出人们去图书馆可能是为了上网、喝咖啡等。正是因为这样,d项(图书馆借出的书籍数目上升)也是错误的。c项(图书馆不断增多的电脑是为了方便读者检索书目的)比较易于混淆,图书馆的电脑设备是增加了,不过从作者的口吻来看,这并不是为了便利读者检索,而是为了方便大家来图书馆上网休闲,所以这个选项也不正确。而a项(图书馆借阅书籍的功能现正面临被网吧和其他休闲设施所取代的危机)是正确答案。
