The chicken made its first appearance next door, at the home of a multitude of cabdrivers from Bangladesh. My wife,
32、 Nancy, and I figured they had bought the chicken and were fattening it for a feast.

37、:1,分数:10.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:in stock)解析:听力原文1-10The uses a student makes of his college library may be summarized under three broad headings: borrowing books, consulting reference materials and general study. In this lecture we shall examine various aspects of these activities with a view to help the
38、student to use his library more easily and more efficiently.First of all, borrowing books. Lets assume a student bas been given the author and title of a certain book which hes been told to read. He wants to borrow it from the library as itll take some time for him to finish it. As soon as he gets t
39、o the library he should check that the book is in stock, make sure that its available for lending, and find out where to locate it on the library shelves. In order to do this hell have to consult the catalogues. As he has the name of the author, itll be easiest to use the author, or name catalogue.
40、This consists of a list of books entered on cards in alphabetical order under the name of the author, institution, or editor by which the book is best known. If you look at your handout youll see a sample card. While Im talking about this, it might be helpful if you label it in the appropriate place
41、s. In this way youll familiarize yourself with the most important item in the whole business of using a library.In the center of the card, is written the authors name-his surname always comes first, followed by his forename, also known as “Christian name“. The forename is further distinguished from
42、the surname either by punctuation, or by style of printing.The books number, thats to say the number which identifies the book, occurs near the top left hand corner of the card. This number normally consists of two parts, each part being printed on a separate line. The first part, on the top line, i
43、s the class numbers, thats to say it s the number which tells you in which subject area the book lies. The Dewey Decimal System divides all knowledge up into major subject areas. The sample card shows the class number as 375.33.Beneath this Dewey Decimal number youll see another number. The capital
44、letter O represents the first letter of the authors surname. The following number is especially assigned to this particular name. The small letter which in .some systems follows this number is the first letter of the title of the book. In cataloguing titles, the definite and indefinite articles are
45、disregarded. Thus the letter here is “p“. While the class number tells the student which general area in the library to go to in order to find the book, the author number will direct him to the exact shelf.With this information, and having found the book, the student can now fill in the appropriate
46、voucher, or borrowing slip, and have the book date stamped on the inside page by the assistant. If the book is already out on loan, then its usually possible to reserve it, so that when its returned the student can be sure of getting it.That now completes what you need to know about borrowing a book
47、, though before we move on to consulting reference material, well just briefly examine the other details on the name card from the catalogue. Under the authors name, the title of the book is printed, followed by the edition. There then appear the imprint details: these give details of publisher, place and date of publication. Finally, under the imprint, you have the collation details. These give numbers of volumes,
