We’ve been hearing about it for years, but the bookless library has finally arrived, first appearing on college campuses. At Drexel University’s new Library Learning Terrace, which opened just last month, there is not a bound【C1】________, just rows of computers and plenty of seating offering【C2】________to the Philadelphia university’s 170 million【C3】________items. Scott Erdy, designer of the new library, says open,【C4】________space allows student and staff "knowledge transfer," a concept【C5】________by Danuta Nitecki, dean of Drexel’s libraries. "We don’t【C6】________house books, we house learning," she says.
The trend began, naturally,【C7】________engineers, when Kansas State University’s engineering library went primarily bookless several years ago. Last year, Stanford University【C8】________all but 10,000 printed books from its new engineering library, making more room【C9】________large tables and study areas. And the University of Texas abandoned print【C10】________electronic material when it opened its engineering library last year. But when books disappear, does a library lose its【C11】________?
"The library is a social tent pole," says Michael Connelly, a best-selling author. "There are a lot of ideas under it.【C12】________the pole and the tent comes down." Connelly says that browsing through【C13】________books brings inspiration of the kind that led him from【C14】________his campus library’s stacks straight to a writing【C15】________. "Can something like that happen in a bookless library? I’m not so sure," he says.
From a design perspective, some architects also【C16】________the inevitable trend toward booklessness. Steven Holl, architect of Queens Library’s new branch, in New York City, says books still provide character and are a nice counterpoint to technology. " A book【C17】________knowledge, and striking a balance in a library is a good thing." He says.【C18】________other designers, seem inspired by the challenge presented by a world going bookless. Others are hedging their bets that【C19】________the library isn’t bookless now, someday it probably will be. To most people, it is best when paper and electronic【C20】________are both available.
【C15】
选项
A、proficiency
B、habit
C、experience
D、career
答案
D
解析
本段提到说话人的身份为“畅销书作者”;此句说看书给他带来灵感将他引向写作。可推断他将写作当成了职业,故选D项career“职业生涯”。A项proficiency“水平”,B项habit“习惯”,C项experience“经历”,都没能很好地体现浏览纸质书所带来的inspiration(灵感)的巨大作用,也没有呼应上文所说的迈克尔的身份是“畅销书作者”。
