三、阅读理解
Some libraries use unique architecture to encourage visitors to settle down with a new
book, or use mobile libraries to bring books to hard-to-reach populations. No matter how they
achieve it, these novel libraries are keeping the magic of reading alive.
Beach Library (Albena, Bulgaria)
Reading a book on the beach is a classic, and in Bulgaria, one library encourages tourists
to do just that. The white, weather-resistant shelves, lined up not far from the surf, hold 6,000
books in 15 languages so every visitor can find the perfect beach read to enjoy while soaking
up the sun’s rays.
The Camel Library Service (North Eastern Province, Kenya)
To combat (
防止，减轻
) low literacy rates in the desert of Kenya, the government
created a mobile library composed of nine camels bringing books to villages. The library
travels four days a week serving the region’s people. Currently the service focuses on
children, but with more funding they plan to increase their reach both in distance and the
titles they carry.
Bishan Library (Singapore)
Built in 2006, this library is meant to invoke (
在脑海中唤起
) a modern glass treehouse.
Glass pods (
吊舱
) of varying colors stick out of the building randomly to create comfortable
yet airy corners for reading throughout the building. At the same time, a more open-plan
children’s room on the basement level invites interaction while preventing noise from going
up and disturbing those concentrating in the high places above.
Seikei University Library (Tokyo, Japan)
Libraries are usually known for their quiet atmosphere, but this one encourages
conversation. Pritzker Prize-winner Shigeru Ban designed the library with space-age, free
standing soundproofed pods to respect those who need uninterrupted study, while also being
conducive (
有助于
) to other methods of learning.
Macquarie University Library (Sydney, Australia)
A surprising combination of the cutting edge and sustainability, this building was made
from recycled materials, features a green roof, and was designed to imitate the look of a
eucalyptus tree (
桉树
). It is also state of the art, using robot cranes to bring requested books
to the front desk.

My almost 6-year-old son is currently crazy about Star Wars and Harry Potter. I know
he’s young, but the movies and books bring up topics for us to sort through all the
time—tough topics. A good chance for me! We read the books together; we watch the movies
together. We’ve talked about many things that some parents of a 5-year-old might not talk
about, but I want to have these conversations with my son.
Today, it was rainy and when the baby took her nap, I allowed him to watch a Star Wars
试卷第5页，共12页
movie as a reward for being so kind this morning to his sister who was feeling a little
unhappy. As I was folding laundry, I said to him, very casually, “Wow, that Darth Vader really
makes me sick.” My son chided (
指责
) me, “Mama, Darth Vader has good in him. I know
he’s on the dark side, but he isn’t all bad.” This launched us into a conversation about good
versus evil and how goodness can be found in anyone if we only look hard enough.
For the past week, I feel like I have been tested with various examples of people simply
not being nice. And some people were rude for no apparent reason. A nurse was impatient
with me on the phone when I called for a prescription. Little ears were listening in on all of
those instances and after doing my best to be nice on the phone call with the nurse, I hung up
and said to my husband, “Wow, what was wrong with her? She was so rude.” My boy said,
“Mama, we all have a bad day. Be nice to her and she might be nice to you back.” This child
teaches me lessons every day, and all we can do is treat people with kindness, as hard as it
might be.
The nurse was probably exhausted from taking sick calls and maybe she simply needed a
coffee break. I do know that those people were not on their best behavior or showing their
best side but how many of us have been in those exact shoes? We all act in haste. We all
speak in haste. We all do things we regret. And, if we were lucky, we were met with kindness
instead of anger in return for our outburst.
My son reminded me today to be kinder and gentler to the people I meet with. I’m going
to try harder this week. I’m going to try to smile when met with a frown. Like he mentions,
even Darth Vader has good in him and maybe he just needs a little sympathy.
41
．
How does the writer react to her son’s recent interest?
A
．
Using it as a chance to express her regret.
B
．
Trying to persuade him to change his mind.
C
．
Trying to help him develop some more hobbies.
D
．
Using it as a chance to have a deep talk with him.
42
．
Why did the author allow her son to watch a movie Star Wars?
A
．
Because it was a reward for his kindness.
B
．
Because her son loves Star Wars.
C
．
Because it was raining outside.
D
．
Because the baby was napping.
43
．
What did the author learn from her child?
