It"s a library built with love.
A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsinbased nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That"s what we"re going to do for our spring break！”
Son Austin, now a 10thgrader, didn"t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51yearold owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he"d built years earlier for daughter Abbie"s toy horses, and made a door of glass.
After adding the library"s final touches(装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book，” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.
They stocked it with 20 or so books they"d already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids" favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again，” said Janey, a stayathome mom.
Since then, the collection keeps replenishing(补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.
The project"s best payoff, says Peter, are the thankyou notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”

小题1:答案：B 细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二句可知这家图书馆是为了方便爱读书的行人借书而建立的，因此B项正确。
小题2:答案：D 细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句可知Janey Henriksen看到一篇关于the Little Free Library organization的报告后受到启发，因而产生了建立这样的图书馆的想法。
小题3:答案：C 细节理解题。根据文章第四段第一句的内容可知C项正确。
小题4:答案：C 推理判断题。根据文章第五段的内容可知，这个标牌要求借书者拿走一本书就要归还一本书，其目的是使图书馆能够持续更长的时间。
小题5:答案：A 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段第一句可知借书者经常捐书给图书馆，因此A项正确。文章没有提到为图书馆收集书会有报酬，因此B项错误；文章最后一段提到Peter说经常收到借书者的感谢信，而不是借书者收到感谢信，因此C项错误；文章倒数第二段第二句提到图书馆现在平均每天接待5个人，因此D项错误。

I felt tense and shaking. I drew my violin from under my coat like a gun. It was here, in Southampton, with trains passing overhead, that I was about to prove myself.
The first notes I played were loud and raw, and then they settled down and began to run more smoothly and to stay more or less in tune. To my surprise I was neither arrested nor told to shut up. Indeed, nobody took any notice at all.
I walked the streets of Southampton for several days, gradually knowing how to try and get money by being a street artist. It was not a good thing, for instance, to let the hat fill up with money — the sight could discourage the people; nor was it wise to empty it completely, which could also confuse them, giving them no hint as to where to drop his money. Placing a couple of pennies in the hat to start the thing going soon became a good idea. Before I played another tune, I took off the big money, but always left two pennies behind.
Old ladies were most generous, and so were women with children, shop girls, and typists. As for the men: Heavy drinkers were always generous too and so were big young with muscles. But never a man with a hat, briefcase or dog; respectable types were the meanest of all, except retired army officers, who would bark “Why aren’t you working, young man?” and then threw much money into the hat to hide their confusion.
小题1:The underlined phrase “have a go” in Paragraph 1 probably means ________.
| A．have a try | B．run away |
| C．change a place | D．commit a crime |
| A．he could make a lot of money | B．he had chosen the wrong place |
| C．he would get into trouble | D．people would stop and listen to him |
| A．let the hat fill up with money first |
| B．leave a small amount of money in the hat |
| C．make sure that the hat was always empty |
| D．choose the best place to play more smooth tunes |
| A．Most of the ladies were willing to give him money. |
| B．Retired army officers seldom gave him money. |
| C．Drinkers were generous with their money. |
| D．Not all the people would feel pity for street-violinists. |
