That’s what the library is offering to do in Zhongshan, Guangdong Province.But the books have to be about technical and scientific matters.

Researchers also note an increase in the number of areas setting new records for high and low temperatures.
More severe storms have been reported in some areas.Other areas have suffered from a severe lack of rain.
Alex Green of the University of Florida believes a general warming in Earth’s atmosphere is to blame.This warming is commonly called the Green-house Effect.
Scientists believe it is caused by burning fuels such as oil and coal.Many scientists say the pollution released by burning the fuels enters the atmosphere and may lead to higher temperatures on Earth.
Professor Green says the more carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere, the more extreme weather systems we can expect.
But not all researchers agree.Tom Ross is a weather expert with the National Climatic Data Center in North Carolina.Mister Ross says what is happening now could become less of an issue at a future date.He notes that only twenty years ago some scientists were warning about the start of a new ice age.
Mister Ross says more information needs to be collected before scientists can blame current weather conditions on the Greenhouse Effect.However, Mister Green says that by the time scientists agree about the problem it may be too late to do anything about it.

閱讀表達
Has your boss sent out a memo(備忘錄)warning all employees to stop logging into sites like Face book, You Tube, and Twitteron company time? You may want to send a memo straight back to him or her with some justification(辯護)for your web surfing time.According to a study from University of Melbourne, workers who are allowed to spend time each day reading news, blogs, product reviews, communicating with friends on social networks and taking part in other non-work-related online pursuits are actually more productive than those who are blocked from doing so.
The study has showed that people who surf the Internet for fun at work-within a reasonable limit of less than 20% of their total time in the office-are ________ by about 9% than those who don抰.
Why the seemingly confusing result? According to Dr.Coker, it comes down to our attention spans."People need to let their mind go blank for a bit to get back their concentration," he said."Think back to when you were in class listening to a lecture-after about 20 minutes you can抰 concentrate your attention, yet after a break your concentration was restored."
When mixed with work time, web surfing allows employees to refresh their minds and come back to the task at hand with more focus and care.
"Short breaks, such as a quick surf of the Internet, en-able the mind to rest itself, leading to better concentration for a day抯 work, and as a result, increased productivity," Dr.Coker added.
If your manager can抰 tolerate workplace leisure time, share this insight with him or her and maybe he or her even becomes your Face book friend.
1.What is the main idea of this text?(within 10 words)
_____________________
2.Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one? You may have enough reasons to argue with your manager you抮e your web surfing time at work.
_____________________
3.Fill in the blank in the second paragraph with proper words.(within 5 words)
_____________________
4.List three kinds of things workers can do during the web surfing time at work.(within 10 words)
①________、赺_______-________、踎_______
5.Translate the underlined sentence in the third paragraph into Chinese.

Great Minds Reminded of Mom
After a long, exhausting day, a friend of mine, Allen, headed home. On the road, he passed an elderly woman who was standing by a car with a flat tire. If that were his mother, he thought, he would want someone to help her. With a tired sigh, he turned around and drove back.
Just as he reached the stranded woman, a truck pulled up and a burly farmer got out. "Kindof reminds you of your mom, too?" the man asked as the two of them pitched in together to change the tire for the woman.
