What does the man plan to write his paper on?
Why does the woman say the archives need to be kept secure?
Listen to part of a conversation at a university library. (M = Man, W = Woman)
M: Hi. May I speak to the… uh, the archives librarian?
W: I’m the archives librarian. What can I help you with?
M: Well, actually, I’m not a student here. I’m studying history at State University across town, but there’s a collection of…
W: Oh, wait. Are you the… sorry, I don’t remember your name, but the librarian over there asked me about giving someone access to the Jacobson collection. Is that you?
M: Yes, that’s right. See, my paper is on the development of the coal-mining industry here in the city, and the Jacobson collection has a lot of information about John Jacobson… like, when he founded the company and things, right?
W: Yes, it does. More than you’ll be able to fit into a paper, I’d bet. Did your librarian explain what our system is here?
M: A little. She told me to make sure I brought my college ID so I could get in the door.
W: Yes, well, I’ll need to take a copy of it too. Even our own students who look at items from our archive collections have to leave a copy of their college ID with us. You’ll also have to sign into the archives room whenever you enter and sign out whenever you leave. There’s a desk. You know, for security.
M: Wow. So a lot of this stuff is valuable?
W: Hmm. Well, I don’t know whether you’d get much money for it, but a lot of it is one-of-a-kind, so if it were taken… that’s it. It’d be gone.
M: I’ll be careful.
W: Thank you. The other thing is, the things in the Jacobson collection are more than 100 years old, so I’ll have to ask you to wear special gloves while handling the books. Also, I’m afraid you won’t be able to photocopy anything.
M: I figured that. I ought to… I mean, I can probably get everything I need on note cards, but suppose there’s a page or two I really want a copy of. Can I… don’t know, take a picture, or something?
W: Well, I can’t let you take a picture. But we have scans… images… of all the pages in the collection. You can buy a print of any page you want, but they’re expensive—five dollars a piece. So be sure you know which pages you want before you ask for them.
M: Five dollars! Well, 1 guess given how rare these things are… Okay, so you want a copy of my college ID, and then you can tell me how to get to the archives room so I can get started.
选项
A、Students from other universities frequently use the collection.
B、Some items are worth a lot of money.
C、Many items cannot be replaced.
D、There have been several thefts recently.
答案
C
解析
题目问为什么女士说这些档案都要被安全保管。在谈到藏书的价值时,女士说它们很多都是独一无二的,如果被拿走,就没了。由此可见,C项“很多书都没有替代版本”正确。A项“其他大学的学生经常使用这本藏书”和D项“最近发生了几起盗窃案”都没有在对话中被提及。女士没有直接说这些书是否值很多钱,所以无法准确判断B项的表述。
