黑。 A
A trip to the library can change your life.That is the idea of the Get It Loud in Libraries project，which challenges the habit of speaking in a low voice.The sweet tones of singer Diana Vickers rang out recently，surrounded by books as well as fans，at Lancaster Library.Plan B，Adele，Florence and the Machine，Speech Debelle，and the Thrills have also performed for the project.
This five-year project aims to increase access(进入) to libraries while developing youth talent and has attracted more than 8,500 visitors,5,000 of whom are first-time library users.
“I think it’s wonderful，”Vickers says.“I’ve been playing in front of big crowds and I’m excited about close environments where you can be close to your fans.”
As a child growing up in nearby Blackburn，she says that her school library was a “second home”to her.When she was young she loved Peter Rabbit and Mr.Men books，and later her favorites included Little Women and The Lovely Bones.
Attracted by the stage，the young who would once never have been to a library have been returning to borrow books and CDs.The project’s founder，Stewart Parsons，has worked in libraries for 25 years.He feels that the concerts have made libraries something that the young want to be part of.A mother，Lauren Zawadzki，sent him a text message after a concert：“Your work is great！！！Both Izaak and Dom have been reading in the library for the last half hour...You should be proud.They would never have suggested that before the concerts.”
Parsons hopes that the activity is changing the way people view libraries.“My big worry is that libraries trail(拖拉)behind slightly；they shouldn’t.This is about bringing libraries up to date.The beautiful thing is that people are reconnecting with the library in a way they haven’t done before.”
41．The Get It Loud in Libraries project aims to ________.
A．collect money for libraries to buy books B．attract more people to read in libraries
C．provide a performing place for music lovers D．develop youth talent for singing
42．What can we know about Diana Vickers from the passage?
A．She once worked at a library. B．She doesn’t like being close to her fans.
C．She liked reading in her childhood. D．She complains about the noisy environment.
43．According to the passage，Zawadzki ________.
A．advised libraries to keep quiet B．praised Parsons for helping her reading
C．found her children’s talent for singing D．praised the Get It Loud in Libraries project

Florence used her own money and some from friends to buy clothes，beds，medicines and food for the men.Her only pay was in smiles from the lips of dying soldiers.But they were more than enough for this kind woman.

Even at school there had been an unhealthy competition between George and Richard.
“I’ll be the first millionaire in Coleford!” Richard used to boast.
“And you’ll be sorry that you knew me,” George would reply “because I’ll surely be the best lawyer in our town!”
After graduation, George never became a lawyer and Richard was anybody but a millionaire …. Instead, it happened that both men opened bookshops on opposite sides of Coleford High Street, while it was hard to make much money from books then, which made the competition between them worse. Eventually, Richard closed down his, dreaming of making a fortune elsewhere.
Now, with only one bookshop in the town, business was better for George. But sometimes he sat in his narrow old kitchen and gazed out of the dirty window, thinking about his former rival (竞争对手)。Perhaps he missed him? zxxk
George was very interested in old dictionaries, and he had recently found a collector in Australia who was selling a rare first edition. When the parcel arrived, the book was in perfect condition and George was quite delighted. But while he was having lunch, George glanced at the photo in the newspaper that the book had been wrapped in. He was astonished — the smiling face was older than he remembered but unmistakable! Trembling, George started reading: “Bookends Company has bought ten bookstores from its competitors. The company, owned by multi-millionaire Richard Pike, is now the largest bookseller in this country.”
47．George and Richard were at school.
A. roommates B. good friends C. competitors D. booksellers

B. Both of them realized their original ambitions, which were the same.
C. George established a successful business while Richard was missing.

盖茨出生于1955年10月28日，他和两个姐妹一起在西雅图长大。他们的父亲WilliamH.GatesII是西雅图的一名律师。他们的已故母亲MaryGates曾任中学教师、华盛顿大学的校务委员以及UnitedWayInternational的女主席。
盖茨曾就读于西雅图的公立小学和私立湖滨中学，在那里，他开始了自己个人计算机软件的职业经历，13岁就开始编写计算机程序。
1973年，盖茨进入哈佛大学一年级，在那里他与SteveBallmer住在同一楼层，后者目前是微软公司总裁。在哈佛期间，盖茨为第一台微型计算机－MITSAltair开发了BASIC编程语言。BASIC语言是JohnKemeny和ThomasKurtz于六十年代中期在Dartmouth学院开发的一种计算机语言。
三年级时，盖茨从哈佛退学，全身心投入其与童年伙伴PaulAllen一起于1975年组建的微软公司。他们深信个人计算机将是每一部办公桌面系统以及每一家庭的非常有价值的工具，并为这一信念所指引，开始为个人计算机开发软件。
盖茨有关个人计算机的远见和洞察力一直是微软公司和软件业界成功的关键。盖茨积极地参与微软公司的关键管理和战略性决策，并在新产品的技术开发中发挥着重要的作用。他的相当一部分时间用于会见客户和通过电子邮件与微软公司的全球雇员保持接触。
在盖茨的领导下，微软的使命是不断地提高和改进软件技术，并使人们更加轻松、更经济有效而且更有趣味地使用计算机。微软公司拥有长期的发展战略，这一点可以从本财政年度26亿美元的研究与开发投资中得到反映。

《未来之路》在20多个国家出版，仅在中国就售出40多万册。1996年，为充分利用Internet所带来的新的商机，盖茨对微软进行了战略调整，同时，他又全面修订了《未来之路》，在新版本中，他认为交互式网络是人类通讯历史上一个主要里程碑。再版平装本同样荣登最畅销排行榜。盖茨将其稿费收入捐给了一个非盈利基金，用于支持全世界将计算机与教学相结合的教师。
除计算机情结之外，盖茨对生物技术也很感兴趣。他是ICOS公司的董事会成员以及英国Chiroscience集团及其位于华盛顿州的全资子公司-ChiroscienceR&D公司?前身是DarwinMolecular）的股东。他还创立了Corbis公司，该公司正在开发全球最大的可视化信息资源之一，提供全球公共与私人收藏的艺术和摄影作品的综合性数字文档。盖茨还与蜂窝电话的先驱者CraigMcCaw共同投资了Teledesic公司，该公司雄心勃勃地计划发射数百个近地轨道卫星，为全世界提供双向宽带电信服务。
在微软公司上市的12年时间里，盖茨已向慈善机构捐献8亿多美元，包括向盖茨图书馆基金会捐赠2亿美元，以帮助北美的各大图书馆更好地利用信息时代带来的各种新技术。1994年，盖茨创立了WilliamH.Gates基金会，该基金会赞助了一系列盖茨本人及其家庭感兴趣的活动。盖茨捐献的四个重点领域是：教育、世界公共卫生和人口问题、非赢利的公众艺术机构以及一个地区性的投资计划-PugetSound。
盖茨1994年1月1日与MelindaFrenchGates结婚，他们有一个孩子JenniferKatharineGates,1996年出生。盖茨是一个读书迷，而且很喜欢打高尔夫和桥牌。
