Question

【题目】A new library opened last month in Norway. But it may be a little hard for you to visit. It is 150 meters under the ground. It is inside an old mine(矿井)on the island of Svalbard. The island is about 1,000 km from the North Pole(北极).

The library is called The World Arctic Archive. In fact, it’s not made for people to visit. It is to protect the world’s most important books from natural disasters(自然灾害)and wars，reported the Daily Mail. Some people also call it the “doomsday(世界末日)library’.

According to the company that built the library, Svalbard was the best place to build it. “Deep in the permafrost(永冻土层), it’s about minus 10 degrees,” the company told The Verge. “In this environment, the books can last for more than 500 years.”

So far, three countries-Norway, Mexico and Brazil have put books in the library. The Brazilian Constitution(宪法)is one of the books.

【解析】短文大意：上个月在挪威开设了一个新图书馆。它在地下150米处，这是一个古老的矿井里，这个图书馆被称为世界北极档案馆。由于特殊的环境，这些书可以保存500年以上。

【1】根据短文第一句A new library opened last month in Norway.可知，上个月在挪威开设了一个新图书馆。所以“last week 上周”的表述是错误的。 故答案为：F。

【2】 根据第一段第四句It is inside an old mine(矿井)on the island of Svalbard.可知，图书馆在在斯瓦尔巴德岛上的一个老矿井里。所以“a new mine新矿井”的表述是错误的。故答案为：F。

【3】根据第二段第二句In fact, it’s not made for people to visit可知，它不是为人们来参观才建造的，所以“made for people to visit.”的表述是错误。故答案为：F。

【4】根据第三段第三句 In this environment, the books can last for more than 500 years.可知，在这种环境下，这些书可以保存500年以上。本题的表述是正确的。故答案为：T。

【5】根据短文倒数第二句So far, three countries-Norway, Mexico and Brazil have put books in the library.可知，已有三个国家把书放在这个图书馆里。所以本题的表述是正确的。故答案为：T。
