116、hould be shut down and everyone should be given a tablet.Supporters of this idea state that it will save local cities and towns money because libraries are expensive to maintain. They also believe it will encourage more people to read because they can simply click on what they want to read wherever
117、they are.However, it would be a serious mistake to replace libraries with tablets. Digital books and resources are associated with less learning and more problems than print resources. A study done on tablet vs. book reading found that people read 20-30% slower on tablets, remember 20% less informat
118、ion, and understand 10% less of what they read, compared to people who read the same information in print. Additionally, staring too long at a screen has been shown to cause health problems, including blurred vision, dizziness, dry eyes and headaches, at much higher instances than reading print does
119、. We should not add to these problems by giving people, especially young people, more reasons to look at screens.It is incredibly narrow-minded to assume that the only service libraries offer is book lending. Libraries have a lot of benefits, and many are only available if the library has a physical
120、 location. Some of these benefits include acting as a quiet study space, giving people a way to talk to their neighbors, holding classes on a variety of topics, providing jobs, answering questions, and keeping the community connected. One neighborhood found that, after a local library instituted com
121、munity events such as play times for kids and parents, job fairs for teenagers, and meeting spaces for senior citizens, over a third of residents reported feeling more connected to their community. Therefore, people see libraries as a way to connect with others and get their questions answered, whic
122、h are benefits that tablets cant offer as well or as easily.While replacing libraries with tablets may seem like a simple solution, it would encourage people to spend even more time looking at digital screens, despite the many issues surrounding them. It would also end access to many library benefit
123、s that people have come to rely on. In many areas, libraries are such an important part of the community network that they could never be replaced by a simple object.68.

127、ng in a public library given the quiet atmosphere. Therefore, libraries will not be replaced by tablets.【解析】【分析】本是议论文，文章通过展示研究数据、举例说明和理论分析等方式驳斥了平板电脑可以代替传统图书馆这一观点，认为图书馆是社会网络的重要组成部分，它们永远不能被一个简单的物体所取代。【68题详解】考查细节理解。根据第二段“They also believe it will encourage more people to read because they can simply cl
128、ick on what they want to read wherever they are.(他们还认为这将鼓励更多的人阅读，因为无论他们在哪里。都可以简单地点击他们想读的东西， )”可知，平板电脑可以让阅读变得更方便，无论在哪里，只要简单地点击想读的东西这可以了，所以一些人认为平板电脑可以鼓励更多的人阅读。故答案为Because people can simply click on what they want to read wherever they are.【69题详解】考查细节理解。根据第三段中所列举的研究数据可知，该研究证明了中心句“Digital books and reso
129、urces are associated with less learning and more problems than print resources.(与印刷资源相比，数字书籍和资源与更少的学习和更多的问题相关联)”的正确，所以研究表明数字书籍和资源带来更少的学习和更多的问题。故答案为Digital books and resources are associated with less learning and more problems.70题详解】考查细节理解。根据第四段“Therefore, people see libraries as a way to connect wi
130、th others and get their questions answered, which are benefits that tablets cant offer as well or as easily.(因此，人们将图书馆视为一种与他人联系和寻找答案的方式，而这些好处是平板电脑无法提供的 )”可知，图书馆是一种与他人联系和寻找答案的方式，这是平板电脑不具备的优点。故答案为People see libraries as a way to connect with others and get their questions answered.【71题详解】考查推理判断。本文是议论文
131、，文章驳斥了平板电脑可以代替传统图书馆这一观点，认为图书馆是不能被取代的。对于这一观点，我们可以赞同，也可以反对，所以答案也有两种可能性。其一：图书馆会被取代平板电脑，第一，因为平板阅读非常方便，因为人们可以随时随地获取阅读材料，第二，它节省了时间，因为人们不需要去图书馆借书。因此，图书馆将被平板电脑取代；其二，图书馆不会被取代平板电脑，首先，我们可以从图书馆免费借书，这比购买电子书更经济，第二，很多人，尤其是学生，喜欢在公共图书馆安静的氛围中阅读。因此，图书馆不会被平板电脑取代。故答案为Possible Answer 1:Yes. First, tablet reading is conve
132、nient, as one can access reading materials from anywhere and anytime. Second, it saves time because one does not need to travel to the library to borrow books. Therefore, libraries will be replaced by tablets.Possible Answer 2:No. First, we can borrow books for free from the library, which is more e
133、conomical than buying e-books. Second, lots of people, especially students, enjoy reading in a public library given the quiet atmosphere. Therefore, libraries will not be replaced by tablets.V. 书面表达（20分）72. 假设你是红星中学高一学生李华。你的英国朋友Jim所在学校将举办主题为“中国文化周”（Chinese Culture Week）的活动。Jim打算介绍一项中国传统艺术，发来邮件请你推荐。请
