Most Famous Libraries in the World

Trinity College Library

Designed by Thomas Burgh, the library is the largest in Ireland. Construction on the Long Room, the library’s 65-meter-long main hall, began in 1712 and lasted 20 years. The original structure only had books on the lower level, but when the library’s shelves were filled in the 1850s, the ceiling was raised to accommodate even more books. Today the Long Room holds 200,000 of the library’s oldest books.

Stuttgart City Library

Opened in 2011, the German library is a splendid light-gray cube consisting of glass blocks designed by Eun Young Yi. Inside it, you’ll find an airy central room, above which sits a multi-story stepped reading room lined with bookshelves. The library towers over the nearby buildings.

Library of Parliament

Taking the form of a Victorian Gothic chapter house complete with 16 flying buttresses, the 1876 Library of Parliament is one of Canada’s prized architectural treasures — it’s on the ten-dollar bill. Architects Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones took inspiration from the British Museum Reading Room for the structure, lining the central hall with delicate wood shelves and wood carvings.

Rampur Raza Library

Founded in the late 18th century, the Indian library is home to a massive collection of Islamic and Asian texts and objects. The pink structure that houses the collection today was built in 1904 by Nawab Hamid Ali Khan as a mansion of Indo-European style, The Rampur Raza Library was later shifted to this grand building in 1957.

Sam Trull has worked with wildlife for almost 20 years, but she first found her soft spot for sloths (树懒) in 2013 after moving to Costa Rica to work for a small wildlife recovery center called Kids Saving the Rainforest. On arriving there, she took a liking to a two-week-old orphaned (孤儿的) sloth named Kermie. Sloths hug each other for both safety and comfort, so Trull cared for him with tender love, meals, and hugs. Soon other baby sloths were brought in. It was then that she realized that helping the creatures survive was her true calling.

When the sloths were grown and healthy enough to depart, Trull and her team built a 19-foot-cubed cage near the recovery center and left the door open, so the four-legged friends could come and go freely. They spent enough time eating and exploring in the wild so that they could abandon the cage for good. Trull performed it successfully with several sloths who are now living healthily in the jungle. Their movements are tracked thanks to the collars they wear.

Keeping sloths wild and free is a complicated and expensive process. To make it more effective, Trull co-founded the Sloth Institute in 2014. In addition to the education program and the research into sloths, the institute also cooperates with other institutes to better learn how to prepare orphaned sloths brought to the institute for eventual re-entry into the rainforest. The institute is now going smoothly.

Trull published her new book called Slothlove, where she documented the sloths she had saved via photographs. She explained, “A lot of people don’t know getting hit by cars and getting caught in electric wires are particularly dangerous to sloths. People just think they’re adorable and take selfies with them, unaware that the sloth is stressed and upset.”

4. What can we learn about Trull shortly after she got to Costa Rica?

A. She helped kids to recover.

B. She cared for sloths for comfort.

C. She was at a loss how to cure Kermie.

D. She decided to work with sloths forever.

5. Why did Trull and her team build the cage for the sloths?

A. To limit their movements.

B. To make them recover quickly.

C. To train them to adapt to the wild.

D. To reunite them with their mothers.

6. What can be inferred about the Sloth Institute?

A It is now open to tourists.

B. It will mainly educate the public.

C. It will let go more hand-raised sloths.

D. It is largely sponsored by other institutes.

7. Why does the author mention Trull’s words in the last paragraph?

A. To stress her talent for photography.

B. To describe people’s love for sloths.

C. To introduce the popularity of her book.

D. To tell the reason for publishing her book.

C

Now scientists in Lausanne, Switzerland have given three paralyzed men the ability to walk again. Each of the three men had damaged their spinal cords (脊髓) in motorcycle accidents and couldn’t move their legs.

To help them walk again, the men had surgery. A paddle shaped device was placed directly on the lower part of their spinal cord, below their injury. This implant (植入物) contained sixteen electrodes—conductors that electricity can pass through. The researchers made sure the electrodes on the implant were lined up with the spinal cord nerves that control the leg muscles (肌肉). To begin with, the scientists controlled the implants from a tablet computer. Just hours after the implants were first used, all three men were taking steps,with support.

In the past, scientists had some success with similar implants in the lower spine. Some patients have even trained themselves over months to be able to walk. This research is different. The patients’ brains aren’t sending “walking” messages to their legs. Instead, the tablet tells the implant to send the walking messages as a set of electrical signals.

The researchers used computers to create patterns of movement—like taking a step—that would work well with each patient. The patient then uses the tablet to choose the pattern they want. That triggers the implant, and the muscles move in the chosen way. Over time, the men were able to walk entirely on their own, using a special walker with buttons to excite each leg. One of the men has walked for half a kilometer on his own with the walker.

The method is very expensive and it requires difficult surgery. The patients can’t walk without the AI system. But it is a vital step to improve people’s quality of life. The scientists hope that in the future they will engineer personalized spinal cord implants to allow many paralyzed people to walk again in just hours.

8. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A. How spinal cord nerves worked.

B. Why an operation was performed.

C. How the implants let the men walk.

D. Why electrodes were precisely arranged.

9. How does the author compare the new research with the previous ones?

A. By telling their differences.

B. By stating the study process.

C. By explaining their similarities.

D. By analyzing the study purpose.

10. What does the underlined word “triggers” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

A. Changes. B. Activates. C. Improves. D. Shakes.

11. What is the author’s attitude towards the method?

A. Objective. B. Tolerant. C. Content. D. Doubtful.

D

Researchers have developed a new method for training people to be creative, one that shows promise of succeeding far better than current ways. This new method, based on narrative (叙事的) theory, helps people be creative in the way children and artists are; by making up stories they imagine alternative worlds, shift perspectives (角度) and generate unexpected actions.

The current foundation of creativity training is the technique known as divergent thinking (发散思维), which doesn’t deliver the results that many hope for. A major issue is that this approach relies on data and information about the problems and successes of the past. It can’t come up with truly original actions. That’s where narrative method comes in, and both techniques could be used together.

The narrative method works by recognizing that we’re all creative. “We undervalue the creativity of kids and many others because we tend to think that some people are more creative than others, but the reality is that we’re just not training creativity in the right way,” said Angus Fletcher from the Ohio State University. Fletcher and his colleagues successfully used the narrative approach to train members from the US Army, the University of Chicago, and several Fortune 50 companies.

The narrative method asks participants to generate stories based on assumptive situations or think from someone else’s perspective. Their suggestions are then assessed by experts according to how certain they are that an action will work. For example, marketers might be asked to imagine a world where their competitor’s product was free and how they would respond to that, or to learn a little about how a co-worker thinks and then imagine how they would solve a specific problem.

The narrative method generates actual solutions without pressuring participants to come up with ideas that match an “appropriateness” criterion. What’s more, the narrative method doesn’t depend on data to fuel outputs, so it’s useful even in never seen-before situations.

12. What does the author say about divergent thinking?

A. It is perfect for multiple tasks.

B. It is suitable for creative actions.

C. It is unfit for complex problems.

D. It is inadequate for desired results.

13. What is Paragraph 4 intended to tell us about the narrative method?

A. Its effect on business climate.

B Its application in creativity training.

C. Its role in improving product quality.

D. Its value in assessing workers’ ability.

14. Which is one advantage of the narrative method?

A. It relies on data and past performance.

B. It prepares people for standard answers.

C. It trains people to find practical solutions.

D. It focuses on guessing the future correctly.

15. What’s the best title for the text?

A. Creative Ideas and Creative Actions

B. Narrative Approach and Divergent Thinking

C. Narrative Method Can Make Anyone Creative

D. There Should Be No Prejudice Against Creativity

Wearing uniforms also save time for students as they don’t need to waste their valuable time decide what to wear every morning. Besides, school uniforms are a lot cheap compared with branded clothes.
