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 a-bandoned 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.
【C11】
选项
A、imagination
B、occurrence
C、definition
D、existence
答案
C
解析
前面讲到几个大学图书馆开始进行“无纸化”,这句用But笔锋一转,提出疑问:当书消失了的时候,图书馆是不是就失去了什么?图书馆原本是藏书的,没有了书,定义也就发生了变化。故选C项definition“定义”。
