More Chinese universities are opening their libraries to the public, allowing people to enjoy reading during normal time and the vacations.

But for some students, including Wang Ling, 21, in Sun Yat-sen University, this practice has caused headaches. “Members of the public come to our libraries more for sightseeing than reading,” said Wang.

“They sometimes even bring their kids along, and take photos as if it were a place of interest.”

Wang has found it hard to get a seat during busy times. Being short of space is a common problem for university libraries in China.

However, this is not the only reason why students dislike their libraries being open to members of the public. They fear that the quietness of the libraries will be influenced because of visitors’ rude behavior.

Chen Jie, 18, a student in Tongji University, is one who would be against opening to the public. “I have been to a public library before. People were chatting loudly or speaking on cell phone so you can hardly read,” Chen said. She notices teachers doing serious reading and feels their concentration（專(zhuān)注）has influenced her. “If too many strangers stay here, the whole library will be a noisy place and it’s difficult for us to study quietly,” she said.

Will there be alternative（可替代的）ways to share those libraries? Some experts consider that university libraries can prevent the public from entering certain areas. “We might keep magazines for academic research only for teachers and students,” said Zhu Lina, library director in Jinan University.

Working together with the community library is another solution. “It’s possible that a member of the public can order a book in our library over the Internet,” Ge Jianxiong, the library director in Fudan University said. “We’ll send it to a public libraries close to their home.”

1.We can see from the passage that Wang Ling .

A. hates to study in the library B. prefers sightseeing to reading

C. feels good to play with kids D. is a university student aged 21

2.In Chen Jie’s opinion, visitors to university libraries may .

4.Where is the passage most probably taken from?

A. A newspaper. B. A library guide. C. A story book. D. A notice board.

Kathy could still remember the night she had to leave her home in Hungary. It was the beginning of World War II and her family had to leave their country as soon as possible. She quickly filled a bag with a few pieces of clothing, her diary, and her treasure—a beautiful silk scarf.

Kathy and her best friend, Monica, had asked their parents to buy them matching scarves. They each would wear the scarves as a symbol of their friendship. Kathy had no idea that she was going to America that night and would not be returning.

Kathy kept that special silk scarf for many years. One day she decided to give it to her granddaughter, Eliza, to wear to her first job interview for good luck. Kathy was afraid that Eliza would lose the scarf, but the granddaughter promised, “Don’t worry, Grandma, nothing’s going to happen to your scarf. You’ll see. It is going to bring both of us luck today.” And with that, Eliza kissed her grandmother and left for the interview.

That afternoon Eliza left the interview, feeling sure that she had got the job. So she decided to celebrate by going to a restaurant. As she was sitting at her table, she felt someone looking at her. Sitting next to her was an old woman, who could not take her eyes away from her.

“I’m sorry, do I know you?” Eliza asked.

“I’m sorry, dear, but you make me think of someone I once knew,” the old woman replied. “My best friend looked like you and used to wear a scarf just like the one you’re wearing around your neck.” Eliza listened carefully, with her eyes and mouth wide open. She had heard stories of her grandmother’s best friend and knew the meaning of the scarf. Could this be Monica, her grandmother’s childhood friend?

Eliza introduced herself and waited to hear the name of the other woman.

“My name’s Monica, dear. I lived in Hungary as a child, but my family had to leave when I was fourteen years old. I’ve been living here in California ever since.” said the old woman.

科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：陜西省寶雞市渭濱區(qū)2017屆九年級(jí)4月質(zhì)量檢測(cè)試卷（一）英語(yǔ)試卷 題型：閱讀理解

Last week, Chicago became the first city in the US to join the “Lights Out Plan”. People turned off the lights in the city’s tallest buildings, so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes. Every year in autumn, some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south, and come back the next spring．

Lights mean danger to birds. Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars. This means they can not find the right way to go home．

This month, about 300 types of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter. Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons. Many birds cannot live in the cold, so they fly to warmer places. But there are other reasons，too. Birds need to look for food in the south. Another reason is that they want to have baby birds. Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same “house” they lived in last year, so they fly back there.

There are about 9,000 kinds of birds in the world, and about 600 kinds of birds migrate（遷徙）. Some birds can fly a very long way. Sometimes they fly to other countries. We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds．

1.Why did people in Chicago turn off their lights last week?

A. Because people wanted to save money．

B. Because people liked the dark night．

C. Because people were afraid that birds would make much noise．

D. Because people were afraid that birds would lose their way．

2.Today we have fewer birds because __________．

A. lots of birds are often ill B. people kill lots of birds

C. there are fewer places for birds D. other animals eat them

3.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. All birds fly to warmer places every year．

B. Some birds have to fly to warmer places in autumn．

C. Some birds can fly a long way to other countries．

D. About 600 kinds of birds migrate in the world．
