1. (2020·景县模拟) 阅读理解

People read books less often in these days. With the invention of radio, television and most recently, the Internet and computer games, it seems that reading books is no longer a popular activity. However, I believe that books are an important part of our lives.     Books offer an outstanding wealth of learning and at a lower price than taking a course. Books can make people cleverer, because heavy readers have greater knowledge of how things work and who or what people were.     Everything in today's society requires reading. Imagine trying to do something as simple as reading the directions on a medicine bottle without good reading skills.     For these, there will be a new library in our city. It is free for everyone. There are some rules. You must follow: ⒈You can read books there or take the books you like to your home. ⒉If you break the book you must compensate two times. ⒊You must keep the books clean and you don't talk aloud. ⒋Remember it is open at 9:00 a.m.-7:00 p.m. from Tuesday to Sunday.
