4、. To save money, the requirement was dropped in 2001, when there were about 6,019 libraries in the country；since then, about 11 percent have been combined or closed.Now, the surviving Czech libraries are doing what they can to stay vibrant (生气勃勃的) and relevant.

17、快乐几乎被普遍认为是人类最宝贵的财富之一。然而，关于某些形式的快乐是否比其他形式的好，会产生分歧。1G解析：根据第二段第一句Philosopher Jeremy Bentham believed that all sources of pleasure are of equal quality, but John Stuart Mill disagreed.可知Jeremy Bentham认为所有快乐的来源都是平等的，但是John Stuart Mill不同意。可知关于某些形式的快乐是否比其他形式的好，存在分歧。故选G。2F解析：根据上文Mill argued for a difference

18、 between higher and lower pleasure.(密尔认为快乐的高低是有区别的。)下文提到了lower pleasure，即可知本句应是说明了higher pleasure。故选F：更高的快乐取决于人类的能力，如自我意识或语言使用。3D解析：根据上文The entire debate assumes a clear divide between the physical and the mental.(整个辩论在生理和心理上有明显的分歧。)中physical and the mental可对应到D选项中the physical and the mental，句意：如果身体

19、和精神不能分开会发生什么？故选D。4A解析：根据下文Food is usually considered to be the lower pleasure.可知提到了food，故可对应到A选项中的dining table。句意：餐桌就是一个分歧很明显的地方。故选A。5B解析：根据后文Preparing it using the powers of reflection and attention turns it into a higher pleasure.(用反思和专注的力量来准备它，会把它变成一种更高的乐趣。)可知上文应该描述低级趣味。B项，狼吞虎咽是一种低级趣味。故选B。.完形填空Hu
