One of New York's most beautiful and valuable buildings is in danger. The New York Public Library, in the heart of the city at 42nd Street and 5th Avenue, may have to close its doors.
The library is a very special place. Even though it is in the busiest part of the city, it has grass and trees around it, and benches for people to sit on. Even more unusual in the crowded New York, its rooms are very large. The roof of the main reading room is fifty－one feet high. Here, a reader can sit and think and work in comfort.
And what books there are to work with. The library has over thirty million books and paintings. It owns one of the first copies of a Shakespeare play, a Bible printed by Gutenberg in the 15th century, and a letter written by Columbus in which he tells the finding of the new world.
Every New Yorker can see and use the library's riches free.
But the cost of running the library has risen rapidly in recent years, and the library does not have enough money to continue its work. In the past, it was open every evening and also on Saturdays and Sundays. Now it is closed at those times, to save money.
The library is trying in every possible way to raise money to meet its increasing costs. Well－known New York writers and artists are trying to help. So are the universities, whose students use the library, and the governments of the New York City and the New York State. But the problem remains serious.
Yet a way must be found to save the library because, as one writer said, “The Public Library is the most important building in New York City－it contains all our knowledge.”
1．Which of the following is true?
[ ]
A．The library's costs are cut down.
B．The library owns a letter for Columbus.
C．It is impossible to grow grass and trees around the library:
D．There are so many books to work with.
2．Which of the following is Not true?
[ ]
A．At present the library is closed even later than before.
B．It is open from morning to afternoon every day except weekend.
C．The readers can sit and think and work comfortably in the main reading room of the library.
D．In the past, the library was open every day.
3．How much does a New Yorker have to pay for the use of the library?
[ ]
A．A New Yorker used to pay nothing, but now has to pay a little money.
B．He has to pay the library increasing costs.
C．Every New Yorker can visit the library freely, and use it with payment.
D．A New Yorker doesn't have to pay anything for the use of the library.
4．Why does the author say that the New York's Library is in danger?
[ ]
A．Because the building is too old to be used any more.
B．Because it's too crowded.
C．Because the roof of the main reading room needs repairing.
D．Because they haven't got enough money to run the library.
5．Why is it important to save the library? Because ________.
[ ]
A．famous writers and artists are trying to help
B．there is a fifty－one－foot－high main reading room in it
C．it contains all our knowledge
D．it is one of the New York's most valuable buildings

Visitors to Switzerland usually include Basel in their list of cities to visit. It has a population of over350 000, the majority of whom speak German.
