四、課後拓展
Lastly for today we're going to look at some rules you find in the library You must keep quiet in the library as people are reading You mustn't make too much noise You can bringfood and drink into the library, however you must be careful not to damage the books You cannot bring in smelly food like durian You probably shouldn't sleep in the library, it is best to sleep at home You should never bring a book back late, otherwise you will have to pay a fine You should always bring back books on time, this will make the librarian happy You are allowed to take pictures of book pages that interest you You are not allowed to take pictures of the librarian, this is rude!
There are many libraries in the UK, but these days younger generations go online to find most of their reading It is also easy to download books Older generations still prefer to go and sit in a quiet place like the library and read books.
