       Libraries give kids a quiet and safe place to read and learn. For over 100 years,librarievS have played an important role in Americans’ education. But how are these book-filled buildings changing with the times? You may be surprised to find out.

       Benjamin Franklin famously founded (創(chuàng)建) America's first lending library in 1731. But the public library system got its biggest development in the American history in the late 1800s. Businessman Andrew Carnegie donated millions of dollars to help build free public libraries across the country.Between 1886 and 1919,Carnegie's donations helped build 1 ,679 new libraries.

       Carnegie believed that libraries could offer the chances to Americans,young and old. He knew that the more libraries there were,the more people would have opportunities to read and use books,speeches and news.

       If you can easily find a public library in your community (社區(qū)) ，you’ll get more chances. After all,the United States haks 9,225 public libraries. Today,libraries keep growing. Seven tenths of the libraries have free Internet. It provides much more information and opportunities to ask for jobs online.

       Libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. The new program Read] Build!Play] adds reading into playtime. As kids listen to a book that is being read aloud,they use Legos (樂高積木) to build images (圖像) from the story happily. Today's libraries are always looking for creative programs to bring people into the library.

       Benjamin Franklin once said ,“The doors of wisdom (智慧) are never shut. ” As long as the doors of public libraries are open,what he said is most certainly correct!

[2015 •�？诟木嶿閱讀回答問題閱讀下面的短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。

       Today,an increasing number of people are always looking at their mobile phones with their heads down. These people are called the “Heads-down Tribe (低頭族) ”Are you a heads-down tribe member? Heads-down tribe members now can be seen everywhere.

       More and more traffic accidents are happening because more drivers use mobile phones when they are driving. In order to make drivers pay more attention to driving,some new traffic rules have been made. For example,people who use mobile phones while driving in Taiwan are fined (罰款) . Car drivers and motorcyclists who break the traffic rule will be fined NT $3,000 and NT $1,000 respectively (分別地) .

       As we can see above,using mobile phones may cause accidents and even cost a lot of money. Also,more and more interesting and strange facts happen to the “Heads-down Tribe”. Let's have a look at an interesting TV report. A man in America kept using his mobile phone on his way home. As a result,he knocked into a big lost bear. When he lifted his eyes from the phone,he was so afraid that he turned around and ran away quickly. Another fact is that we can often see people in the restaurant eating face to face but looking at their own mobile phones. It's strange that they don’t  talk to the ones who sit opposite to them during the meal. Some of them even have fun communicating with others on the phone.

       Mobile phones are helpful and necessary tools for modern life. Are mobile phones good or bad? It depends on how people use them. Let's be “healthy” users and try to be the “Heads-up Tribe”.

31. What does “Heads-down Tribe” mean?

32. Why more and more traffic accidents are happening today?

33. How much will a driver be fined if he /she uses mobile phones while driving?

34. Why did a man in America knock into a big lost bear?

35. Are mobile phones helpful and necessary for modern life?
