While it’s the books that make a library,being in lovely surroundings may provide inspiration and help you to work a little bit harder.Here are some of the coolest libraries of the world.
Library of Birmingham—Birmingham,U.K.
The new Library of Birmingham is said to be not only Britain’s biggest public library,but also the largest in Europe.Designed by Dutch architects,this replacement for the Birmingham Central Library was opened in 2013 and has a wealth of resources within its walls,including adult and kids’ libraries,music collections,a Shakespeare Memorial Room,and even a gym room.Gardens crown the roof,while the changing seasons bring variations in the shadows and reflections inside.
National Library of France—Paris,France
The National Library of France,which now contains an astonishing collection of 30 million,dates back to the 14th century and this royal library was set up at the Louvre by King Charles V.The library was moved to Rue de Richelieu site in 1868,with major design work carried out by French architects Henri Labrouste and,following his death,Jean-Louis Pascal.Here,the reading rooms are elegance itself.There are more than just books to be found.
State Library of New South Wales—Sydney,Australia
The public State Library of New South Wales holds the honor of being the oldest institution of kind in Australia.It was originally the Australian Subscription Library in 1826,but it wasn’t until 1942 that its permanent home was ready.Designed by Sydney architect Walter Liberty Vernon and completed in 1910,the magnificent sandstone Mitchell Wing is one of the architectural highlights.

Seattle Central Library’s distinctive design ensures it stands out.Architect Rem Koolhaas is one of the names attached to its design.Architects sought to envelop the 11-story building with“a layer of transparency”,using a skin of glass and metal.The finished article houses about 1.45 million books and other things,as well as more than 400 computers available for public use.The building,which opened in 2004,was included on the American Institute of Architects’list of America’s 150 favorite buildings in 2007.

At the age of seven,while his friends were spending their allowances on things like candy and toys,Jose Adolfo Quisocola was busy saving money for basic purchases.To try to get his peers(同龄人)to do the same,the boy from Peru came up with the idea of an eco-bank,the Bartselana Student Bank,which allows kids of all ages to become financially independent while also helping the environment.
Set up in 2012,the bank is the world’s first bank for kids.To become a member,a kid has to bring in at least 5 kilograms of solid waste and set a savings goal.Once accepted,all bank “partners” are required to deposit at least one additional kilogram of recyclables on a monthly basis and observe other requirements,such as attending financial education and environmental management workshops.
The waste accumulated is sold to local recycling companies,who,thanks to Jose’s efforts,pay a higher-than-market rate for everything brought in by the bank members.The money received is placed in the personal account where they collect until the savings goal is reached.The account holder can then withdraw the money,or choose to leave it and continue to grow for a bigger target.“At the beginning,my teachers thought I was crazy or that a child could not undertake this type of project,”Jose recalls.“They did not understand that we are not the future of the country but its present.Luckily,I had the support of the school headmaster and an assistant in my class.”
The boy’s efforts paid off,and by 2013,the bank had over 200 members,who brought in one ton of recyclable waste.Today,the eco-bank,which now has the support of several local institutions,boasts ten educational centers.They are designed to teach the over 3,000 students,aged 10 to 18,to become financially independent,use their money wisely,and help the environment.
Not surprisingly,Jose’s efforts have earned him several national and international awards.On November 20,2024,Jose won Children’s Climate Prize,which comes with a medal and $5,500 in prize money and is given to a child or youth who has accomplished an extraordinary achievement for the climate or environment. 24.Why did Jose set up the bank?
A.To raise money and set up a recycling company. B.To buy necessities and donate them to needy kids. C.To save much money and protect the environment. D.To educate the students and help them win prizes. 25.How can a kid be admitted to the eco-bank?
A.By donating to the eco-bank.
B.By turning in one kilogram of waste in a month. C.By sending in an application.
D.By presenting a goal and a certain amount of waste. 26.How did the teachers feel about Jose’s program?
A.Doubtful. B.Excited. C.Moved. D.Worried. 27.What is paragraph 4 mainly about ?
A.How the environment is improved. B.What the project has achieved.
C.How tons of waste has been recycled. D.What support the local institutions get.

While visiting the North pole in winter may not be at the top of your bucket list,the ever-changing ICEHOTEL,which opened its doors to visitors on December 14 this year,may change your mind.200 km north of the Arctic Circle in the Swedish village of Jukkasjārvi,the hotel,which is carved entirely from ice,is rebuilt annually.
The 35 rooms,built to accommodate visitors on all kinds of budgets,vary from expensive suites to basic rooms that are furnished with just an icy bed and a reindeer skin.Among the highlights this year is the “Spruce Woods” suite.Sculpted by Christopher Pascoe and Jennie O’Keefe of Canada,it describes a camping scene complete with a classic microbus,a forest,and even an artificial campfire.
There is also the artfully-carved “Living Ocean” suite to remind visitors of the importance of saving our oceans.The room is full of carved sea life that includes coral and a shark “swimming” right over the ice bed.“The suite is inspired by global warming and the overfishing that affects our oceans.”says artist Jonathan Paul Green.“I also think the idea of using frozen water from a river in northern Sweden to create an ocean with shells,fish,and corals is exciting.”
The nearby “Haven” suite is a “magical gate of ice” guarded by two large animals.“We are inspired by the meeting between people and want to create an experience that invites curiosity and creativity,”says artist Jonas Johansson.“It feels like a dream to get to work with ice that allows our love for light,shine,and reflection to wander freely from thought to creation.”
Regardless of whether visitors select the carved suites or the basic ice rooms,the temperature is always set to a bone-chilling -5℃!That is why guests are advised to snuggle(蜷缩)up inside sleeping bags and wear gloves and winter hats all night.Not surprisingly,most end up spending just a single night at this unique hotel before moving on to the conventional and warmer hotels nearby.
28.What does the underlined phrase “bucket list” mean in the text?
A.A shopping list of buckets. B.A list of travelling destinations. C.A list of expensive hotels. 29.What can we know about the ice hotel?
A.It is rebuilt every year.
B.Its rooms are expensive.
C.It organizes camping activities. D.It lies in a coastal city. 30.Where does the inspiration of “Living Ocean” suite come from?
A.Art and literature. B.Ocean life and voyage.
C.Climate changes and human influence. D.The meeting of people.
31.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.An Adventure to the North Pole B.An Experience Close to Nature C.A Taste of Cold:A Night in a Village D.A Winter Destination:Sweden’s Ice Hotel
D.A list of exciting ideas.
