Every year many students went to the college bookstore to purchase the different textbooks that they need for their classes. Little do these students realize that, in doing so, they are throwing good money away. It may sound unbelievable but textbooks, in some cases, actually cost as much as, if not more than, college fees.

Many people think that college bookstores are the most convenient source for textbooks. Titles are usually kept and students may purchase new textbooks or choose to buy second-hand books and save money. But the money saved by purchasing second-hand textbooks from college bookstores is small compared to the amount they could save by shopping online.

More and more online booksellers have begun selling textbooks at heavily discounted prices. Online second-hand bookstores are another source for college books as they keep a large number of textbooks, which means sizable savings for students. Students should avoid purchasing their textbooks at the first store that they surf online since there are so many ?unreal? booksellers on the Net. Price isn't the only factor to consider when making an online purchase. Students should also consider shopping costs and delivery time when making their decision.

Online auctions(拍卖) are another option for students seeking a bargain. This option, however, has its pros and cons. A plus is that students can get incredibly cheap books. One problem is that while online bookstores have a system in place that ensure you receive your order within a reasonable amount of time, with an auction purchase, however, you must depend on the auction seller's timetable.

One way that students can really save is by getting books for free. Project Gutenberg is one resource that English majors will find invaluable. Here students can legally download a huge collection of classic novels. In the past students needing help with their studies would often have to spend a lot of money buying expensive study guides. Today that is no longer the case.

Cash-strapped students can now visit the website SparkNotes for free downloadable study guides as well as classics.

31. Which of the following is the best title of this passage? A. Learning to Save on Textbooks C.Online Shopping 【答案】A

【解析】标题归纳题。本文主要讲在线购书比去学校书店买更节省，最后一段还介绍了一种能免费获得教科书的节省的方法。所以本文主要讲在教科书方面怎样省钱。故选A. 32. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a source to obtain textbooks ? A. College bookstores. C.Online auctions. 【答案】Dks5u

【解析】细节理解题。第一段讲到A.College bookstores。第三段“Online second-hand bookstores are another source for college books …...”提到了B（在线二手书）。第四段讲C.在线拍卖。但始终没提到D。

33. The underlined expression “pros and cons” (paragraph 4) is closest in meaning to __________. A. professionals and conservatives C.advantages and disadvantages 【答案】C

【解析】词义猜测题。“pros and cons” 指“正反两方面”，即“优点和缺点”。与C意思相同。 34. According to the passage, Project Gutenberg is probably __________. A. a government project aimed at helping English majors B. a project to help poor students get free learning materials

C. a website for English majors to get the guides from language experts D.a website for students to get free sources for English learning 【答案】D

【解析】推理判断题。文章最后一段“Project Gutenberg is one resource that English majors will find invaluable. Here students can legally download a huge collection of classic novels.”说明 “Project Gutenberg”是英语专业学生认为非常贵重的资源，学生可以在这儿合法地下载大量经典小说收藏。因此它是一个学生可以为英语学习获取免费资源的网站。故选D。

B. joy and sadness
