Since my childhood, libraries had played an important role in my life. When I was a pupil, I regarded on my every trip to the school library as an adventure. I enjoyed my stay at the library when I could read various book I was interested in. It was for this reason why I decided to volunteer at a library. At first I had difficulty remember where each book should be shelved, and I got used to doing so soon with the help of a kind librarian. Working in the library might seem bored for most people. However, it was rewarding experience for me. It not only developed my ability to read, but also help me make a contribution to society.

“Well，sir，” one of the men answered，“we’re on the east coast here，and the sun sets in the west．We can get you a sunrise over the sea，if necessary，but not a sunset.”

“That’s a very good idea!” the director saiD． Then he turned to the camera crew and said，“Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea.”

The camera crew went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay. Then at nine o’clock they took it to the director．“Here it is，sir，” they said，and gave it to him．He was very pleaseD．

In order to help customers find what they want quickly，it’s important to keep the thousands of titles in the Main Street Movies store organized properly．This section of the Employee Handbook will tell you how to organize videos.

Each Main street Movies store has three main sections:

1.New Releases Wall.

2.Film library.

3.Video Games.

New Releases Wall．Almost 70 percent of movie rentals are new releases，and that is the first place where most customers go when they enter the store．The center section of shelves on this wall holds Hottest Hits．When new titles come into the store，place them on this wall in alphabetical order．The shelves beside Hottest Hits are called Recent Releases．The New Releases Wall，including the Hottest Hits and Recent Releases shelves，holds about 350 titles.

Film Library．The thousands of titles in the Film Library are organized into categories．The films within each category are displayed alphabetically．Here are the categories and their two-letter computer codes：

Foreign Language titles include films that were originally made in a foreign language and films with foreign language subtitles．A sticker on the back of each box tells which type of film it is.

Video Game．All the video games in Main street Movies are arranged in alphabetical order．Although video games represent only a small percentage of our inventory(库存)，they are stolen more often than any other type of goods in our store．Therefore，video games are never displayed on the shelves．Shelves in the Video Game section hold cardboard with pictures and information about each game．When a customer wants to rent a particular game，you then find the game from the locked case behind the counter.

1.Whom do you think this passage is most probably addressed to?

A． The readers in the store.

B． The manager of the store.

C． The customers in the store.

D． The salespersons of the store.

2.In which order are the new movies moved in the store?

A． From Hottest Hits to Film Library to Recent Releases.

B． From Film Library to Hottest Hits to Recent Releases.

C． From Recent Releases to Film Library to Hottest Hits.

D． From Hottest Hits to Recent Releases to Film Library.

3.Why can’t video games be seen on the shelves?

A． Because they’ve been sold out.

B． Because they’re in the storehouse.

C． Because they’re in a locked case behind the counter.

D． Because they represent a small percentage of the inventory.

4.How can a customer find a film with foreign language subtitles?

A． Check the computer.

B． Look at the back of the box.

C． Check the center section.

D． Watch a few minutes of the film.
