more proper books had not fallen in my way, since I realized that I should not be a clergyman (牧師)Plutarchs Lives there was, in which I read abundantly, and I still think that time spent to great advantage.There was also a book of Defoes, called An Essay on Projects, and another of Dr.Mathers called Essays to Do Good which perhaps gave me a turn of thinking that had an influence on some of the principal future events of my life.This bookish preference at length determined my father to make me a printer, though he had already one son (James) of that profession.In 1717, my brother James returned from England with a press and letters to set up his business in Boston.I liked it much better than that of my father, but still have a thirst for the sea.To prevent the concerned effect of such a desire, my father was impatient to have me bound to my brother.I stood out some time but at last was persuaded, and signed the contract, when I was yet but 12 years old.I was to serve as an apprentice (學徒) till I was 21 years of age, only I was to be allowed journeymans wages during the last year.In a little time I made great proficiency in the business, and became a useful hand to my brother.I_now_had_access_to_better_books.An acquaintance with the apprentices of booksellers, enabled me sometimes to borrow a small one, which I was careful to return soon and clean.Often I sat up in my room reading the greatest part of the night, when the book was borrowed in the evening and to be returned early in the morning, in case it should be missed or wanted.And after some time an imaginative tradesman Mr.Matthew Adams who had a pretty collection of books and who visited our printing house frequently took notice of me, invited me to his library, and very kindly lent me such books as I choose to read.

want to do anything.” “Im so beat and so sad.” .The young generation in our country used to enjoy their “happy culture” but now they have bee “beat and sad” slowly and secretly.Some people even called it “the Beat Culture”The “Beat” youths dont want to do anything.They have no purpose, no desire and they are totally depressed so that they only want to live an aimless life.The “Ge You slouch (葛優(yōu)癱)” and the song I feel like having been drained are the examples.Many media concern themselves about this phenomenon and try to persuade the youths into embracing positive and healthy feelings and encourage them to work hard to get rid of decadence.This is really a kind gesture.However, we dont have to worry too much about this “Beat Culture.” In fact, its not a negative thing.“Beat” never means despair, but a way of selfmockery (自嘲) and pressure relief.In general, the youths in China are not “beat”According to a recent international research, the youths in China hold positive attitude towards the future.29% of the Chinese interviewees believe they will live and work in peace in China because “as long as you work hard, you can have your own day”Around 93% of the Chinese interviewees believe the future is promising because of medicine industry, renewable energy sources and puter.pared with Chinese youngsters, youths in developed countries are more pessimistic (悲觀的)Of course there are some social reasons for the appearing of “the Beat Culture”As urbanization develops rapidly, youths living in big cities are facing new challenges that their forefathers have never encountered before.Loneliness and feelings of insignificance and powerlessness are easy to get hold of the young people.Without proper care, they could threaten our mentality and cause many social problems.These problems probably need our attention more.語篇解讀：中國的年輕人出現(xiàn)了“垮掉”的癥狀，一些媒體努力讓年輕人擁有積極的心態(tài)。但作者看來，這些是社會發(fā)展的正?，F(xiàn)象，有原因可循，無須擔心，中國年輕人并非是垮掉的一代。4“The Beat Culture” includes

And do we really still need libraries now weve got the Internet in our hands?Reporter Ian Clark has the answer.“Libraries are not declining in importance people are simply changing the way they use them，” he wrote on the Guardian website.What Clark means is that libraries have shifted from simply being storehouses of books to a medium to help “bridge the gap between the haves and the havenots”， according to website Libraries Are Essential.Since not everyone can afford a smartphone, a tablet or an Internet connection, and not everyone knows how to search the Internet correctly and efficiently, its public libraries that make sure that these resources and technologies are available to a larger group of people.And one of the pitfalls that e with online materials is that theyre not always reliable.“Google doesnt tell you what youre not getting, so people need to evaluate the quality and pleteness of what they see on their screens，” Sarah Pritchard, dean of libraries at Northwestern University, told Northwestern Research Magazine.And libraries are usually where that “evaluation happens”But all of these practical functions aside, we still need the physical space that a library provides.Its something thats called a “third place”， according to the Seattle Times.This is a place in which we can fully concentrate on our study and work without easily getting distracted.And pared to other “third places” like coffee shops, libraries have a “nonmercial nature” that allows you to relax pletely.“Nobody is trying to sell you anything in the library.There is no pressure to buy and there is no judgment of your choices，” Anne Goulding, a professor at Victoria University in New Zealand, wrote on the Newsroom website.“There are few other spaces that you can just be without somebody questioning your presence or your motivation.”語篇解讀：天津濱海公共圖書館成了網(wǎng)紅。各大媒體爭相報道，并解釋為何在當今數(shù)字時代，實體圖書館依然需要存在的原因以及意義。8Which of the following words best describe “Tianjin B
