Guide to Stockholm University Library
Our library offers different types of studying places and provides a good studying environment.
Zones
The library is divided into different zones. The upper floor is a quiet zone with over a thousand places for silent reading, and places where you can sit and work with your own computer. The reading places consist mostly of tables and chairs. The ground floor is the zone where you can talk. Here you can find sofas and armchairs for group work.
Computers
You can use your own computer to connect to the wi-fi specially prepared for notebook computers; you can also use library computers, which contain the most commonly used applications, such as Microsoft Office. They are situated in the area known as the Experimental Field on the ground floor.
Group-study Places
If you want to discuss freely without disturbing others, you can book a study room or sit at a table on the ground floor. Some study rooms are for 2-3 people and others can hold up to 6-8 people. All rooms are marked on the library maps.
There are 40 group-study rooms that must be booked via the website. To book, you need an active University account and a valid University card. You can use a room three hours per day, nine hours at most per week.
Storage of study material
The library has lockers for students to store course literature. When you have obtained at least 40 credits (学分), you may rent a locker and pay 400 SEK for a year’s rental period.
Rules to be followed
Mobile phone conversations are not permitted anywhere in the library. Keep your phone on silent as if you were in a lecture and exit the library if you need to receive calls.
Please note that food and fruit are forbidden in the library, but you are allowed to have drinks and sweets with you.

解析【文章大意】介绍了Stockholm University Library这个图书馆的一些情况。这是一篇带有标题的应用文,一般有标题的文章,我们要浏览一下标题,然后要特别关注第一段(一般是中心段或引入段)以及最后一段(结论段)。这种应用文主要考察细节,总体上说相对较容易。
【小题1】题干中的the upper floor是有关地方的信息,这暗示我们可以在Zones(地带)这个段落里面去找。The upper floor is a quiet zone with over a thousand places for silent reading, …这说明答案为A。
【小题2】题干中的Library computers on the floor明确告诉读者答案应该出现在Computers这一部分。结合文中的信息“you can also use library computers, which contain the most commonly used applications, such as Microsoft Office. They are situated in the area known as the Experimental Field on the ground floor.”,我们发现A错在field experiment,文中的Experimental Field是一个表示对方的专有名词;这句话中根本没有提到C项中的wi-fi;这里也没有提到D项中的application forms(申请表)。因为A、C、D中所出现的单词均能在原文中找到个别单词。B项中所出现的单词基本在原文中找不到。
【小题3】题干中的group-study告诉读者答案应该出现在Group-study Places中。A错在must,因为也可以是2-3 people;B错在minimum(至少),文中用了You can use a room three hours per day…;D错在不是applicants标注出来,而是这样的放间已经标注好了(All rooms are marked on the library maps)。
【小题4】题干中的locker出现在Storage of Study Material中,这里出A、B、C、D中出现文中所提到信息有A和D,但和文中这句“When you have obtained at least 40 credits, you may rent a locker…”相匹配的只有D。
【小题5】文中Keep your phone on silent说明mobile phones是可以带进来的,food and fruit are forbidden(禁止带食物和水果),you are allowed to have drinks and sweets with you,这些说明只能选D。A手机,B橙汁,C糖,D三明治。

Babies are born yogis. Once we were all able to pull our toes up by our ears and laugh about it. Then we aged, got injured, and began carrying stress in our shoulders and back. In short, we lost our balance.

Yoga(瑜伽) is an ancient practice that helps create a sense of union in body, mind, and spirit. It brings us balance. I was seriously out of balance when I started practicing yoga in 1999. I had plantar facilities in both feet, and my doctor had warned me against all the things I loved to do: walking, hiking, and playing tennis. I was desperate for exercise. Yoga became my salvation and even enhanced my other fitness activities. I practice yoga at least twice a week, but I consider yoga to be part of my daily life because after a while you no longer just practice yoga—you love it.

Yoga becomes part of your physical life. Your body grows stronger, more toned, and more flexible as you move from one pose to the other. I spent a week in Mexico at a yoga retreat, and it was the first vacation on which I lost weight. “Rather than building muscle, yoga builds muscle tone,” says Shakta Kaur Khalsa, author of the K.I.S.S. Guide to Yoga. “Because yoga helps maintain a balanced metabolism (新陈代谢), it also helps to regulate weight. Additionally, yoga stretches muscles lengthwise, causing fat to be removed around the cells.” I do yoga poses throughout the day. After hours at my computer, I stretch my stiff shoulders and arms. When I need a boost of energy, I do energizing poses. When I am feeling exhausted at the end of the day, I do restorative poses.

Yoga becomes part of your mental life. Yoga teaches you to focus on breathing while you hold the poses. This attention to breath is calming; it dissolves stress and anxiety. I use yogic breathing on the tennis courts, in the dentist’s chair, and in traffic jams. You should always leave a yoga practice feeling energized, not tired. If you feel tired after yoga, it means you spent the time “fighting” yourself, trying to force yourself into poses. In yoga, you “surrender” to the pose by letting go of the tension.

Yoga becomes part of your spiritual life. Yoga is practiced by people from all religions; it is not restricted to any religious group. Yoga teaches “right” living in how we deal with ourselves and others. As I work on a difficult pose, I learn patience, forgiveness, and the value of gentleness. Yoga advocates proper eating, but you don’t have to be a vegetarian to practice yoga.

MONEY – SAVING TIPS FOR DISNEY WORLD

Every time you visit Disney World, there’s something new to see. What began in 1971 as the Magic Kingdom now includes the high – tech, movie-mad Disney and Animal Kingdom . Each time the park expands(扩大), so do your chances to spend money. How can you save ? As a family guide to Disney World, I've been to the park more than 25 times with my kids , and I've developed a few money-saving tips for you.

●Buy the Five-Day All-in-One Hopper Pass. Even if you're visiting for fewer days , it's a deal (The pass costs $ 229 for visitors aged 10 and up , $ 183 for kids aged three to nine and is free for kids under age three). Without the pass , you'll have to pay separately for Pleasure Island and the water parks . A single trip to Blizzard Beach , for example , would cost a family of four $100.

  ● Dine out at Lunchtime. The prices at some of the nicer restaurants , especially those in Epcot's World Showcase , are much lower at noontime than at any other time. It's wise to make reservations(预定)before you leave home . Call 407-W-DISNEY .

 ● Become a Gold Card Member.  For $ 65 , you can get a Magic Kingdom Club Gold Card (call 1-800-56-DISNEY). Cardholders get up to 20% off Disney hotel rooms , plus prices on character breakfast , theme park tickets and goods from Disney stores .

 ● Don't Pay Extra to See a Character.  Character-theme dinner shows are expensive , costing a family of four about $ 140 , and even a character breakfast , where Mickey or Donald Duck joins you for cakes , can set you back $ 50. If your budget (预算) is tight, try to meet the characters inside the theme parks and at free in-park shows . You can watch the Diamond Horseshoe show , for example , in the Magic Kingdom for no additional cost , while the similarly themed Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue needs expensive tickets .

 ● Wait Until the End of Your Trip to Buy Souvenirs.  By then , the kids will really know what they want , and you won't waste money on expensive things .

67.If you are short of money, the writer suggests you should not        .

         A.buy things for the kids from Disney stores.

         B.buy souvenirs at the beginning of the trip

         C.make a trip to Blizzard Beach

         D.have your meals out at noontime

68.Which of the following can be used in place of “set you back”

         A.offer you    B.save you    C.return you D.cost you

69.You should pay more money if you         .

         A.have a five – day All – One Hopper Pass while you’re visiting for four days.

         B.do not make a reservation for hotel rooms in advance..

         C.are not a Magic Kingdom Club Gold Card holder.

         D.have lunch at a restaurant in Epcot’s World Showcase

70.In the writer’s opinion, the better way of meeting the Disney cartoon character is        .

         A.to have a character breakfast

         B.to watch the Diamond Horseshoe show

         C.to pay separately for Pleasure Island and the water parks

         D.to attend the Hoop – Dee – Doo Musical Revue
