B

They text their friends all day long. At night, they do research for their term papers on laptops and communicate with their parents on Facebook. But as they walk the paths of Hamilton College, students are still pulling around old-fashioned textbooks — and loving it.

＂The screen won’t go blank,＂ said Faton, a sophomore. ＂There can’t be a virus. It wouldn’t be the same without books. They’ve defined ‘academia’ for a thousand years.＂

Though the world of print is receding before a tide of digital books, blogs and other websites, a generation of college students weaned on technology appears to be holding fast to traditional textbooks. That loyalty comes at a price. Textbooks are expensive, and students’ frustrations with the expense, as well as the emergence of new technology, have produced a lot of choices for obtaining them.

Many students are reluctant to give up the ability to flip quickly between chapters, write in the margins and highlight passages, although new software applications are beginning to allow students to use e-textbooks that way.

＂Students grew up learning from print books,＂ said Nicole Allen, ＂so as they transition to higher education, it’s not surprising that they carry a preference for a format that they are most accustomed to.＂

For now, buying books the old-fashioned way — new or used — prevails. If a campus store sold a new book for $100, it would typically buy the book back for $50 at semester’s end and sell it to the next student for $75. When Louis Boguchwal, a junior, tried to sell a $100 linear algebra textbook back to the college bookstore, he was offered $15. ＂It was insulting,＂ he said. ＂They give you next to nothing.＂

Rosemary Rocha, 26, she waits to borrow the few copies her professors leave on reserve at the library, or relies on the kindness of classmates. ＂My friends will let me borrow their books in exchange for coffee or a slice of pizza,＂ she said. ＂I very seldom buy the textbooks, but I’m always like a chicken without a head.＂

【題文1】Why do students prefer a book to a digital one?

A. E-books usually spread viruses among students.

B. Textbooks are much cheaper than e-books.

C. E-books can’t be written in the margins.

D. They grew up learning from print books.

【題文2】What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?

A. I am always at a loss what to do.

B. I can’t learn without a textbook.

C. I don’t like eating the head of chicken.

D. I don’t know where to buy textbooks.

【題文3】What did the experience of Louis prove?

A. Bookstores cheated students in textbook sales.

B. Bookstores are king in buying and selling textbooks.

C. Bookstores made it convenient to buy textbooks.

D. Bookstores bought books from students fairly.

【題文4】What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Textbooks will be replaced by e-books soon.

B. E-books attract more students to read.

C. Students still like paper books in a digital age.

D. Technology makes paper textbooks out of date.

A

●NATURAL BEAUTY: OUR ENVIRONMENT

Anne Bowen, an art teacher, always emphasized environmental themes in her classes. She channels her concern for the environment into her artwork, which you can see in her ＂Our Environment＂ exhibition, at the Carrollwood Cultural Center in Tampa. Bowen uses mixed media (pen and ink, colored pencils and paint) to describe nature, using patterns that echo the symmetry(對稱) found there. She’s also interested in the ways animals live together in groups, which she explores in her piece Monarch Butterflies(pictured). She hopes her art inspires viewers to come up with solutions to environmental problems. Bowen’s commitment to environmental preservation isn’t just lip service; she’ll donate half of her sales profits to the Sierra Club. In addition to ＂Our Environment＂, members of the Exhibiting Society of Artists have an exhibition in the gallery. The opening reception for both shows is 5—8 p.m. Friday. 4537 Lowell Road. (813) 269-1310.

●ABSTRACTIONS: UNFURLED

Local artist Dominique Martinez, the creative force behind Rustic Steel Creations, bought and renovated the old Tampa Heights Fire Station No. 5, which became Red Door No. 5. Each month, the gallery features local artists with an opening reception in conjunction with First Friday Art in the Heights. This Friday’s exhibition, ＂Unfurled＂, features abstract artists Stephanie Ong and Laura Kmetz.

Ong’s paintings are a form of communication using light, scale and color. Her latest series, ＂Habitats＂, explores transitions in life. Kmetz’s works are deep concentrations of nature and objects, which she explores through multilayered, mixed-media works. She seeks to reveal the essence of things, finding their meaning and offer associations with displacement, loss, search, recovery and preservation. The opening reception is 7—10 p.m. 1910 N Florida Ave. The gallery’s hours after that are by appointment.

【題文1】What is the theme of Anne Bowen’ ＂Our Environment＂ exhibition?

A. Her interest in her art work. B. Her experience in her teaching.
