While it’s the books that make a library, being in lovely surroundings may provide inspiration and help you to work a little bit harder. Here are some of the coolest libraries of the world.
Library of Birmingham—Birmingham, U.K.
The new Library of Birmingham is said to be not only Britain’s biggest public library, but also the largest in Europe. Designed by Dutch architects, this replacement for the Birmingham Central Library was opened in 2013 and has a wealth of resources within its walls, including adult and kids’ libraries, music collections, a Shakespeare Memorial Room, and even a gym room. Gardens crown the roof, while the changing seasons bring variations in the shadows and reflections inside.
National Library of France—Paris, France
The National Library of France, which now contains an astonishing collection of 30 million, dates back to the 14th century and this royal library was set up at the Louvre by King Charles V. The library was moved to Rue de Richelieu site in 1868, with major design work carried out by French architects Henri Labrouste and, following his death, Jean-Louis Pascal. Here, the reading rooms are elegance itself. There are more than just books to be found.
State Library of New South Wales—Sydney, Australia
The public State Library of New South Wales holds the honor of being the oldest institution of its kind in Australia. It was originally set up as the Australian Subscription Library in 1826, but it wasn’t until 1942 that its permanent home was ready. Designed by Sydney architect Walter Liberty Vernon and completed in 1910, the magnificent sandstone Mitchell Wing is one of the architectural highlights.
Seattle Central Library—Seattle, Washington, USA
Seattle Central Library’s distinctive design ensures it stands out. Architect Rem Koolhaas is one of the names attached to its design. Architects sought to envelop the 11-story building with “a layer of transparency”, using a skin of glass and metal. The finished article houses about 1.45 million books and other things, as well as more than 400 computers available for public use. The building, which opened in 2004, was included on the American Institute of Architects’ list of America’s 150 favorite buildings in 2007.

My mother had come to teach in the island school and fell in love with my father. What my father needed were sons. What my mother gave him were girls. Twin girls! I was older than my sister by a few minutes. I always treasure the thought of those minutes. They were the only time in my life when I was the center of everyone’s attention. From the moment Caroline was born, she drew all the attention to herself. When my mother and grandmother told the story of our births, it was mostly of how Caroline had refused to breathe. “But where was I?” I asked my mother. “In the basket,” she said, “Grandma dressed you and put you in the basket.”
Caroline’s true gift was her voice. Our teacher, Mr. Rice, said she should have singing lessons. I was proud of my sister, but something began to hurt me under the pride. As time went on, I suffered more and more deeply.
Later, I became a nurse-midwife, the person who helps deliver(给……接生)babies. I went to a town called Truitt, where there were no doctors then. People there were usually slow to accept outsiders, but they needed my skills for all their medical problems.
One night, I was helping with the birth and I guessed twins. The first baby—a boy came easily. But the second baby—a girl came head first and blue as death. The kitchen was slightly warmer than the bedroom, so I laid the second baby on some cloth on the door of the oven. Then I suddenly asked, “Where is the other twin?” In my concern for his sister, I had completely forgotten him. “He’s sleeping in the basket,” said the grandmother. “You should hold him,” I said, “and let his mother look after him!”

I started to study English when I was a child because of Michael Jackson. He has been my idol (偶像) since 1991. I really wanted to understand him and his music. I used to use a dictionary to learn the meanings of words of songs written by him.
There was a lot of work to do to learn English, but I never felt tired. At first I learned about pronunciation, which was the hardest part for me. Because music was my only source (来源) of spoken English, sometimes I had to use a pronunciation dictionary. Then I made lists of words in order to remember them and their meanings. I would spend hours learning English grammar. What’s more, I read a lot. I also tried to translate texts, dialogues and songs.
Because of my hard work, my English improved a lot. In the end, I entered a college and had a great chance to further improve my English. Now I am an English teacher. And I am still making progress in English.

Franklin’s life is full of charming stories which all young men should know—how he sold books in Boston, and became the guest of kings in Europe; how he was made Major General Franklin, only to quit because, as he said, he was no soldier, and yet helped to organize the army that stood before the trained troops of England and Germany.
This poor Boston boy, without a day’s schooling, became a master of six languages and never stopped studying; this overlooked apprentice conquered(征服)the lightning, made his name famous, received degrees and diplomas from many colleges, and became forever remembered as
“Doctor Franklin”, philosopher, scientist and political leader.
Self-made, self-taught, the candle maker’s son gave light to all the world; the street bookseller set all men singing of liberty; the apprentice became the most sought-after man across the world, and brought his native land to praise and honor him.
He built America, for what our nation is today is largely due to the management, the forethought, the wisdom, and the ability of Benjamin Franklin. He belongs to the world, but especially he belongs to America. The people around the world honored him while he was living; he is still regarded as the most outstanding man by the common people today after his death. And he will live in people’s hearts forever.

The problem you face was very common nowadays.I have working parents too.So I would like to give some advice from my own experience.

Best wishes,
Li Hua.
