问题          Adopt-A-Book at Leeds University Library
   Is there a book that means a lot to you? A book that has encouraged you? A book that is of great value in the history of a subject you care about? A book with some personal importance to you? A work by Shakespeare, Isaac Newton, Tolkien — or something only you would think of?
   If there is, there may well be a copy in Leeds University Library’s Special Collections, and from as little as £25 you can Adopt-A-Book at Leeds. We will place a bookplate in the book recording your support for the library. You can also adopt a book as a gift for someone else — perhaps to celebrate a special event, like a birthday or wedding.
   Please help us to protect our rare (珍稀的) books and keep them safe for present and future users. Our copies of many of the most important works ever printed are kept in safe conditions and the collections are well known worldwide. They are consulted (参阅) by thousands of students and researchers visiting from all over the world, and you may have worked with the valuable works yourself during your studies. When you adopt a healthy book, you help us to revive (使复苏) another that’s not so fit!
What is the purpose of the text?

选项 A、To persuade people to use the library more.
B、To call on people to give their rare books to the library.
C、To raise money for the protection of rare books in the library.
D、To make known the library’s special collections to the general public.

答案C

解析 主旨题。本题的关键其实在于理解第二段对Adopt-A-Book这个活动的说明。其中第一句指出认领一本书的费用比较低,第二句则说明会在书中加入书签,记录认领者对图书馆的支持。这些明显都不是“使用图书馆”([A])、“号召人们将珍稀图书赠给图书馆”([B])以及“让公众了解该馆的特殊藏书”([D])过程中会出现的情况。
