China opens the world's coolest library-The Tianjin Binhai Public Library. It has 1.2 million books. It is so amazing that it will take your breath away when you walk into it. It is designed to look like a 3D eyeball on purpose.

Nobody likes to be watched while they're trying to read a book, but we're willing to make an exception if it means getting to visit this fantastic new library in China. The incredible structure has a huge round auditorium (礼堂) in the middle, which makes the library look like a large eye.

This five storey library stands in the Binhai Cultural District of Tianjin, which was designed by Dutch design company MVRDV in collaboration (合作) with the Tianjin Urban Planning and Design Institute (TUPDI) . And it has been named "The Eye of Binhai", and covers 34, 000 square meters and can hold up to 1.2 million books.

Taking just three years to complete, the library has a reading area on the ground floor, rest areas in the middle sections and offices, meeting spaces, and computer/audio rooms at the top. We're not sure how much studying we would get done, but we'd be too far busy being surprised at it!

When you are sitting in class, have you ever drawn pictures in the margins (页边的空白处) of your notebooks? If so, you are doodling. Many people think of doodling as a distraction (分心) from more important things. But it might be just the opposite. Doodling might help one focus on work.

One study shows that doodling may help you remember things you hear. In 2009 researchers asked two groups of people to listen to a phone message. One group was encouraged to doodle, but the other was not. Neither group knew that it would be asked to remember information from the message. But the group that doodled remembered 29% more.

Other people have suggested other uses for doodling. Jesse Prinz, a professor who studies doodling, says it can help you think creatively. Walking away from a problem to draw might actually help you solve it. When you come back, you'll have a fresh perspective (观点) and figure out an answer more quickly.

An author named Sunni Brown wrote a book on doodling. She argues that doodling is a tool that can help people think. She admits that people see doodling as doing nothing, but she wants to change that. In fact, she runs a business that helps companies improve organization and planning through doodling.

Brown believes doodling is helpful because it includes many ways of learning. You learn in four ways: seeing, hearing, reading or writing, and through movement. The more ways you use, the better you learn. And when you doodle while listening to a lecture, you use all four.

You might think that being good at drawing is important for doodling. But if the point of doodling is to help you think, then it doesn't matter what the picture looks like. Even if you're not an artist, doodling can help you. So next time you need help focusing, pick up a pen and doodle away!

1.Which of the following is true?

A.Jesse Prinz thinks doodling can help people remember better.

B.Brown believes doodling involves four ways of learning.

C.One study shows doodling is a distraction from more important things.

D.Many people think that doodling may be good for your learning and thinking.

2.According to the passage, when you have a problem, you might find a way to solve it by ________.

A.having a conversation B.watching a movie

C.drawing lines or shapes D.wondering in the park

3.The writer probably agrees ________.

A.doodling has drawn more attention B.doodling needs good drawing skill

C.doodling develop one's patience D.doodling helps one focus attention

4.What's the passage mainly about?

A.The problems of doodling. B.The causes of doodling.

C.The advantages of doodling. D.The side effects of doodling.
