    Libraries give kids a quiet and safe place to read and learn. For over 100 years, libraries have played an important role in Americans’ education. But how are these book-filled buildings changing with the times? You may be surprised to find out.
    Benjamin Franklin famously founded (创建) America’s first lending library in 1731. But the public library system got its biggest development in the American history in the late 1800’s. Businessman Andrew Carnegie donated millions of dollars to help build free public libraries across the country. Between 1886 and 1919, Carnegie’s donations helped build 1,679 new libraries.
    Carnegie believed that libraries could offer the chances to Americans, young and old. He knew that the more libraries there were, the more people would have opportunities to read and use books, speeches and news. 
    If you can easily find a public library in your community(社区), you’ll get more chances. After all, the United States has 9,225 public libraries. Today, libraries keep growing. Seven tenths of the libraries have free Internet. It provides much more information and opportunities to ask for jobs online.
    Libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. The new program Read! Build! Play! adds reading into playtime. As kids listen to a book that is being read aloud, they use Legos (乐高积木) to build images(图像) from the story happily. Today’s libraries are always looking for creative programs to bring people into the library.
    Benjamin Franklin once said, “The doors of wisdom(智慧) are never shut.” As long as the doors of public libraries are open, what he said is most certainly correct!
    小题1: Benjamin Franklin founded the first lending library in _______.
    A．1731 B．1800 C．1886 D．1919
    小题2:How many public libraries have free Internet now?
    A．2767.B．6458.C．9225.D．1679.
    小题3:The right order of the following statements is ______ .
    ①The public library system in America developed fast.
    ②The first lending library was founded.
    ③ Libraries provide information and chances to ask for job online.
    ④ Libraries try to bring people into the library by using creative programs.
    A．②①③④B．②③④①C．③④①②D．①②③④
    小题4: The last paragraph mainly tells us_________.
    A．libraries have played an important role in Americans’ education
    B．public libraries in the US should never close the doors
    C．the writer doesn’t agree with Benjamin Franklin

    America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while - then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending（延伸）sometimes deeply into both families.
    Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality（好客） easily.
    Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don't show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly cannot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine（事务）. They will be likely to expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
    For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
    小题1:The writer of this passage must be_______.
    A．an AmericanB．a ChineseC．a visitorD．a student
    小题2:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A．Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
    B．Americans are usually more friendly than Chinese.
    C．Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.
    D．Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
    小题3:From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will be_______.
    A．warmly welcomed at the airport
    B．offered a ride to his home
    C．treated hospitably at his home
    D．treated to dinner in a restaurant
    小题4:The underlined words "generous with our time" in Paragraph 3 mean_______.
    A．strict with timeB．willing to spend time
    C．careful with timeD．free with time
