How to Use a Modern Public Library
Has it been a while since your last visit to a public library? If so, you may be surprised to learn that libraries have changed for the better. It’s been years since they were dusty little rooms with books. They have transformed themselves into places where you can develop your love of knowledge, meet interesting people, or find out how to start a business.
Check out a book. While libraries still loan out（出借）books, you’ll find it easier to get a copy of whatever you’re looking for, thanks to a cooperative network of area libraries. Via such networks, libraries share their books with each other through the use of delivery a vehicles. Once the book you’ve requested is delivered to the nearest branch, they will inform you by e-mail, so you can pick it up.
Check out other items. The library is now a multimedia zone, loaded with information in many formats（载体形式）. You can borrow movies on DVDs, music on CDs, and popular magazines. Some libraries even loan out toys and games. If a popular magazine you want isn’t offered and the library keeps a list of such requests, they may bring it in when enough interest is shown.
Join targeted reading groups. Libraries will often hold reading-group sessions targeted to various age groups. Perhaps you’d like to learn a language or improve your English. The library may sponsor a language group you

高考真题 could join. If you have difficulties reading, ask about special reading opportunities. Your library might be able to accommodate you. And you might find it relaxing to bring your small kid to a half-hour Story Time while you sit quietly in a corner with a good book.
Start a business using the help of your local library. If you want to have a business of your own, your local library can become a launch space for it. In library books and computers, you can find information on starting a business. Many libraries will help you with locally supplied information about business management shared through chambers of commerce（商会）and government agencies, and they will offer printing, faxing and database services you need.
36. Public libraries connected by a cooperative network benefit readers by______. A. sharing their books on the Internet
B. giving access to online reading at a library branch C. sending a needed book to a library branch nearby D. making the checkout procedures diverse
37. According to Paragraph 3, what items may be checked out from a public library? A. A magazine and an e-book. C. A music CD and a kid’s toy.
B. A game and an oil painting. D. A DVD and a video player.
38. As is described in Paragraph 4, taking a small kid to a half-hour Story Time allows ______. A. the kid to learn a new language B. the parent to enjoy quiet reading C. the kid to overcome reading difficulties D. the parent to meet their program sponsor
39. Your local library can help you start a business by ______. A. providing relevant information and supporting services B. offering professional advice on business management C. supplying useful information of your potential buyers D. arranging meetings with government officials 40. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To point out the importance of public libraries. B. To encourage people to work in public libraries. C. To introduce the improved services of public libraries.
