More Chinese universities are opening their libraries to the public,allowing people to enjoy reading during normal time and the vacations.
But for some students,including Wang Ling,21,in Sun Yat-sen University,this practice has caused headaches."Members of the public come to our libraries more for sightseeing than reading,"said Wang.
"They sometimes even bring their kids along,and take photos as if it were a place of interest."
Wang has found it hard to get a seat during busy times.Being short of space is a common problem for university libraries in China.
However,this is not the only reason why students dislike their libraries being open to members of the public.They fear that the quietness of the libraries will be influenced because of visitors' rude behavior.
Chen Jie,18,a student in Tongji University,is one who would be against opening to the public."I have been to a public library before.People were chatting loudly or speaking on cell phone so you can hardly read,"Chen said.She notices teachers doing serious reading and feels their concentration(专注)has influenced her."If too many strangers stay here,the whole library will be a noisy place and it's difficult for us to study quietly,"she said.
Will there be alternative(可替代的)ways to share those libraries?Some experts consider that university libraries can prevent the public from entering certain areas."We might keep magazines for academic research only for teachers and students,"said Zhu Lina,library director in Jinan University.
Working together with the community library is another solution."It's possible that a member of the public can order a book in our library over the Internet,"Ge Jianxiong,the library director in Fudan University said."We'll send it to a public libraries close to their home."
19.We can see from the passage that Wang Ling_______.
A.hates to study in the library B.prefers sightseeing to reading
C.feels good to play with kids D.is a university student aged 21
20.In Chen Jie's opinion,visitors to university libraries may_______.
A.take up too much space B.break the peace there
C.make teachers relaxed D.get students to read more
21.The writer mentions two libraries directors' words to help explain how to________.
A.manage libraries online B.keep the public polite C.share university libraries D.do scientific research
22.Where is the passage most probably taken from?_________.
A.A newspaper. B.A library guide.
C.A story book. D.A notice board.
C
Parents of very young children know this:You catch your child in the act of stealing the cookie--the evidence of candy written on his or her face.However,you get a wide-eyed denial:"I didn't do it!"
Learning to tell the truth,even at the risk of punishment,is an important part of moral (道德) development,and new research suggests it can take seven or more years for kids to get there.
Early 2017 Professor Craig E.Smith published a study.He and his workmates chose 48children between four and nine years of age.They told the kids a story about a boy or girl doing something wrong,such as taking a classmate's toy or candy,and then either lying about the wrongdoing to a parent or confessing (承认) it.In each case,they asked the children,How would the child feel?How would the mother feel?
The children's answers were generally divided according to age,which is in agreement with the stolen candy,lying and getting unpunished.They imagined the parent in the study would be angry with the child who confessed.However,the seven-to-nine-year-olds were more likely (可能的) to think the child would feel better confessing the crime and that the parent would have positive (积极的) feelings towards a confessor.
Smith says,"Kids of all ages who expect that a parent would feel happy about a child's confession are more likely to tell the truth rather than lie.Reward the honesty even if you feel you must punish the wrong action."He adds,what parents can learn from these studies is to listen calmly without getting angry right away when their child confesses.
23.What does the underlined word"denial"in Paragraph 1 mean_______?
A.委屈 B.责备 C.否认 D.拒绝
24.Paragraph 2 mainly tell us_______.
A.kids can't tell"right"from"wrong" B.it takes time for kids to learn to tell the truth
C.it's wrong to punish kids for telling the truth D.all the kids are willing to confess to a bad act
25.What did Smith and his workmates find in their study?
A.Older kids are more likely than younger children to confess to a bad act.
B.Younger children are more likely than older kids to confess to a bad act.
C.The four-to-five-year-olds would feel better confessing the crime
D.The seven-to-nine-year-olds thought parents would be angry with their confessions.
26.According to Professor Smith,what can parents learn from these studies?
A.Parents should at once punish the children who lied.
B.Parents should tell children the wrongness of lying.
C.Parents should never get angry after their children's confessions.
D.Parents should show positive feeling about their children's confessions.
D
Heritage (遗产) is traditional customs, history and beliefs. We use the word “heritage” in many different ways. People talk about their family heritage, city heritage and national heritage.
Today, heritage is changing. The Internet connects people around the world. In many ways this is a good thing, because we can learn about the heritage of other countries, and we can show our own heritage to the world. However, some people worry that traditional heritage is disappearing. In many ways, countries are becoming more and more alike. In most countries around the world, you can find KFC. Nike shoes, Starbucks coffee. American movies and so on. Some people think this is a good change, and others don’t like it. You can decide whether or not it's a good thing.
However, everyone wants to protect traditional heritage, and sometimes this is hard. For example, when a new KFC opens in your city, a traditional restaurant might have to close.
That is why heritage protection is so important. Heritage protection is a simple thought. It means keeping your country's or your city's heritage alive. People do this in many ways. The biggest part of heritage protection is probably preserving (保护)old buildings. Some suggestions of heritage protection are making sure your kids speak your traditional language, and teaching knowledge about heritage to them.
The world is changing. No matter how it changes, never forget the heritage of our parents and grandparents.
27. The examples in the second paragraph are used to .
A.describe people’s love for heritage B. show the importance of heritage
C. help people better understand heritage D. express the writer's feeling about heritage
28. According to the passage, many countries are becoming .
A. great B. Similar C. Large D. friendly
29. Which of the following is part of heritage protection?
A. Learning from each other B. Using the Internet
C. Keeping traditional language alive D. Building new houses
30. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage
A. ① B. ① C. ① D. ①

② ②-- --③ ②--③--④ ②
