Welcome to WSU Libraries！ In this guide, we' ll unlock the mysteries of call numbers and location prefixes.Knowing these helps you quickly locate and access your desired books.
Call Numbers
Books and material are arranged on our shelves according to the Library of Congress (LC) classification
system. These call numbers uniquely identify and organize items near other material on the same or similar
subjects. Consider the call number: LB2395 C651991.
·LB defines the subject area. The call letters are typically arranged in alphabetical (字母的) order, starting
from A and continuing through the alphabet. Knowing the letter(s) for your subject area gives you a place to start
browsing the shelves. For example: A— General Works; B—— Philosophy, Psychology, Religion; D— World
History;G— Geography; H—Social Sciences; J—— Political Science; K— Law; L—— Education; M—— Music; N—— Arts;P—— Language and Literature; Q—— Science… For more, click here.
·2395 is the classification number, which further distinguishes the subject matter. Read as a whole number:
1,2,3,45,100,2430…
·C65 is the Cutter number and usually represents the author's last name. Find C, then 65. Read the number as a decimal (小数).
·1991 is the year of publication.
Location Prefixes
Some call numbers have a location prefix. Location prefixes mean that the book or material is shelved in a special place, and may have loan restrictions. WSU uses the following prefixes:
Prefix Collection Library Location Loan Period
[Blank] Circulating Collection 2nd floor, 3rd floor, and 4th floor 21-day loan
Ref Reference Collection 1st floor, Reference Area Library-use only
Res Reserve Collection 1st floor, Circulation Area Library-use only
Video Audiovisuals 2nd floor, Learning Resources Center Special request
21. Which book may be identified under the call number“NU238 27192013”
A. An Introduction to Modern Art. B. The ABC of Computer Science.
C. The Recycling of Waste Oils. D. A Short History of France.
22. What would be the Cutter number if you are looking for a book by Whitney Sherman
A. C78. B. S53. C. W67. D. L59.
23. Where can you find the book“Res AG243 G87 1992”

He says the problem with teachers is,“What will a kid learn from someone who chose to become a teacher ”He reminds the other dinner guests that it's true what they say about teachers: Those who can, do; those who can't,teach.
I decide to bite my tongue instead of biting his and stop myself from reminding the other dinner guests that it's also true what they say about lawyers—— that they make money from the misfortune of others.
“I mean, you' re a teacher, Taylor,” he says to me.“Be honest. What do you make ”
I wish he hadn't asked me to be honest, because now I have to teach him a lesson.
You want to know what I make
I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could.
I can make a C+ feel like a great achievement
and an A— feel like a failure.
How dare you waste my time with anything less than your very best
I make parents tremble in fear when I call them:
I hope I haven't called at a bad time.
I just wanted to talk to you about something Billy said today.
Billy said,“Leave the kid alone. I still cry sometimes, don't you ”
And it was the bravest act I have ever seen.
I make parents see their children for who they are and what they can be.
You want to know what I make
I make kids wonder.
I make them question.
I make them criticize.
I make them think.
I make them apologize and mean it.
I make them write, write, write.
And then I make them read.
I teach them to solve math problems
that they once thought impossible.
I make them understand that if you have brains then you follow your heart
and if someone ever tries to judge you by what you make, you teach them a lesson.
Let me make this simple for you, so you know what I say is true;
I make a great difference What about you

C
Understanding a proof in a math textbook is one thing; being able to reconstruct it without help is another
thing. My classmates and I learned this the hard way at university. Most of our exams were oral exams, and
nothing exposes a lack of deep knowledge faster than trying to explain a concept to someone.
Unlike written exams, where visual learners may be able to parrot back memorized notes that they barely
understand, an oral test demands creative thinking in real time. When presented with a problem, students not only
need to recall relevant definitions and theories, but they also need to apply them—— sometimes in ways they never anticipated.
Students often fall into a familiar trap. They read the textbooks, highlight key passages, and review lecture
notes. These activities feel productive, but when exam day arrives, a student will often realize their passive
familiarity with the material doesn't translate into the ability to apply it. Nor does it translate into a good grade.
Passive learning is misleading. It feels like we' re making progress, but without actually applying what we learn,
it slips away quickly.
Consuming information is not the same as developing skills. The cognitive psychologist Daniel
T.Willingham explains the distinction between passive and active learning when he writes,“Memory is the result of thought.” In other words, we forget most of what we encounter and remember only what we think about. Reading about calculations doesn't automatically create the neural pathways needed to solve calculating problems. Those
pathways only form through deliberate practice: by solving problems, making mistakes, and experiencing the
struggle.
As a general rule, the harder your brain works during practice, the better it performs when it matters. To truly master something, you should embrace challenges and accept the slow, often frustrating, pace of true learning.
The oral math exam was valuable because it broke the illusion of passive learning. Standing in front of the
professor, faced with a problem, there's nowhere to hide. The pressure to produce mathematics revealed the true
state of our understanding. To truly know what we don't know, we should simulate our own oral exams by
picturing an imaginary professor asking questions and forcing ourselves to figure out answers on our own.
28. What does the underlined phrase“parrot back” mean in paragraph 2

30. Which of the following statements might Daniel T. Willingham agree with
A. Repeated exposure strengthens memories. B. Active engagement builds solid memory.
C. Memory improves with extensive reading. D. Learning occurs when teachers ask questions.
31. What would be the best title for the text
A. Passive Learning: The Silent Killer of Exams B. Conscious Practice: The Best Way to Learn Math
C. Oral Math Exams: The Frustrating University Tests D. Active Learning: The Key to Mastering Knowledge
D
You've stopped at a café on your way to work, and the next thing you know, your latte foam is staring at you.You've had the same furniture for years, but today your cupboard looks sad. You' re lying in the park with your
friends, and now Jesus is floating by in the clouds—— are they seeing him too ！
Why do we see human faces everywhere
Until now, it has been unclear as to why the-brain processes visual signals and represents them in our mind as human faces. However, researchers from the School of Psychology at the University of Sydney have tried
evaluating this phenomenon.
The facial recognition response happens fast, only taking a few hundred milliseconds. From an evolutionary
perspective, the researchers suggest that the benefit of“never missing a face” outweighs the error where lifeless
objects are seen as faces. Despite knowing that the object you are seeing is not a human face, the perception of a
face stays. This is known as“face pareidolia”.
Pareidolia refers to the tendency to impose a meaningful interpretation on an unclear stimulus (刺激物),
making one see an object, pattern or meaning when there is none. Pareidolia was originally considered a symptom of mental disorder, but it is now viewed as a normal human tendency.
Pareidolia has been investigated by scientists and has been present in art and literature for a long period of
time. In Shakespeare's Hamlet, Hamlet demonstrates his supposed madness in his exchange with Polonius by
telling him that he can see a camel in the sky.
The researchers set out to investigate whether a detected pareidolia face would be cast off as a false detection or be analyzed for a facial expression. The study participants were presented series of faces and asked to rate each
face expression on a scale from angry to happy. The series involved a mix of both real and pareidolia faces.
The researchers have found that pareidolia faces are not ignored as false detections, but rather undergo an
internal“facial expression analysis”, in the same way a real face would. This is likely because humans are deeply
social beings. Additionally, in their analysis of how people judge pareidolia faces, the researchers often observed
biased judgments.
So, the next time you see an angry tree, don't be surprised and remember it's not personal.
32. The first paragraph is written in a way that .
A. presents an unusual scientific finding B. creates a vivid and relatable situation
C. warns readers about potential illusions D. contrasts everyday life with rare events
33. Why might our brains have developed the tendency of“face pareidolia”
A. Because it helps us to be more creative in art and literature.
B. Because it makes us better at processing information quickly.
C. Because it's more important to notice all faces than to avoid mistakes.
D. Because seeing faces in lifeless objects is harmless and often enjoyable.
34. What does the author mention Shakespeare's Hamlet
A. To contrast literary interpretation with psychological research.
B. To show that seeing patterns in random objects is a sign of madness.
C. To prove that pareidolia is a modern concept discovered by scientists.
D. To illustrate the phenomenon has long been recognized in human culture.
35. What did the study find about how people see pareidolia faces
A. They ignore them once they know they aren't real.
B. They see them as more frightening than real faces.
C. They can easily tell them apart from real human faces.
D. They judge their expressions as if they were real faces.

Culture is one of the most important concepts within sociology because sociologists recognize that it plays
a crucial role in our social lives. 36
Sociologists define the non- material aspects of culture as the values and beliefs, language, communication
and practices that are shared in common by a group of people. Expanding on these categories, culture is made up
of our knowledge, common sense, assumptions and expectations. 37 It informs how we walk, sit, carry
our bodies and interact with others; how we behave depending on the place, time and“audience”; and how we
express identities of race, class and gender, among others.
38 This aspect of culture includes a wide variety of things, from buildings, technological gadgets and clothing to film, music, literature and art, among others. Aspects of material culture are more commonly referred
to as cultural products.
Sociologists see the two sides of culture—— the material and non— material—— as closely connected.
Material culture emerges from and is shaped by the non- material aspects of culture. 39 But it is not a
one- way relationship between material and non- material culture. Material culture can also influence the
non- material aspects of culture. 40 This is why cultural products tend to follow patterns, What has come
before in terms of music, film, television and art, for example, influences the values and beliefs of those who
interact with them,which then, in turn, influence the creation of additional cultural products.
A. It is composed of both non- material and material things.
B. Without culture, we would not have relationships or society.
C. Culture is also what we do and how we behave and perform.
D. Material culture is composed of the things that humans make and use.
E. Culture is distinct from social structure and economic aspects of society.
F. In other words, what we value, believe and know influences the things that we make.
G. For example, a great documentary film might change people's attitudes and beliefs.

I was born with a genetic disease that causes severe weakness in my limbs(肢体). My 41 means I have never been able to stand or walk, but in the water, I was weightless and could move freely. My 42 memories of my childhood are of learning to swim in school P. E. lessons. It was the only sport I was ever
able to 43 participate in, without being only assigned to referee. I wasn't the fastest swimmer, but back in class,with wet- hair and sore eyes, I felt like a(n) 44 .
As I approached adolescence, I underwent further surgery, which left me even less 45 . Visiting the
hydrotherapy(水疗法) pool was a final 46 to return to the water. I now needed special equipment to get me move into the pool. It was a stressful, 47 experience, far from the fun I remembered.

For the first time as a young adult, I had to 50 myself. Like other disabled people, I often feel a social 51 to push myself, to ignore my body's needs, to be a high achiever, 52 pain or
exhaustion. Giving up on swimming was a tough lesson about accepting the 53 of my body. It was

The concept of a“smart city” has gained immense popularity in recent years. 56 refers to an urban area that uses various types of electronic data collection sensors to supply information 57 (manage) resources
efficiently. This idea is not merely a fantasy; it is gradually becoming a reality.
One key aspect of smart cities is the integration of 58 (advance) technologies into the public
transportation system. Sensors and AI algorithms work together to predict traffic flow and adjust signals
accordingly, reducing congestion 59 (dramatic). However, the application of such systems 60
(require) substantial investment and cooperation between governments and tech companies.
Despite the challenges, many cities are moving forward with smart projects. For instance, in some cities,
lampposts are equipped 61 sensors that monitor air quality. These data are then analyzed to make policies 62 (aim) at improving public health. Critics argue that these technologies may invade people's privacy,
63 supporters believe the benefits outweigh the risks.
Interestingly, the smart city model also draws 64 (inspire) from nature. Some designers propose systems that mimic the efficiency of ecosystems, 65 waste from one process becomes raw material for another. Such an approach not only enhances sustainability but also strengthens the city's resilience against
environmental crises.

Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. She was kind and caring, and always made people
comfortable in her presence. For years she was a volunteer in our community. I love going to the local nursing
home to help with her when I was a child. However, once I became a teenager, I was too caught up in my
adolescent world to worry about helping others.
One particular summer day when I was 12, Mom came into my room and told me to get up and meet her at
the car. But I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything At last, I made my way outside with my mother. Angry and annoyed, I climbed into the car and shoot the door loudly. I sat
in silence, too upset to talk.“Tasha, do you know where we are going ” Mom asked calmly. I remained silent.
“Sweetheart, we' re going to the children's shelter. I have been there before and I think it would benefit you,” she
explained.
I feel a pain slowly form in my stomach. How was I supposed to help there
When we reached the shelter, I was rather surprised. As we approached the front door, wind bells played a calming tune while trees and flowers welcomed us. Maybe this wasn't going to be so.Mom rang the doorbell. We were led to the front room, where all of the children were playing. Toys were spread out across the floor, I noticed a baby whose body was seriously wounded. Most of the children had noticeable physical scars such as cuts, burns and scratches. What a terrible life they must had had before they moved here！ My heart sank. As I was looking around, I felt a gentle pull on my shirt.

I looked down to find a little girl with brown eyes looking up at me.Her eyes,full of innocent curiosity and
a little shyness,secmed to silently ask me to play with her.Unable to resist the charm of her simple and honest
gaze,I slowly knelt down beside her.Soon,we werc immersed in a game with a toy car,and before long,the room
echoed with her chccrful laughter,dissolving all my earlier frustration.In that moment,I felt the joy of giving
bloom inside me,brighter than the sunlight itsclf.
I went back to the shelter with my mom several times.Each visit helped me feel even closer to the kids
living there.I listened carefully to their storics,laughing with them,and even cried with them when things were
hard.The shelter slowly became a safe and comforting place for me,teaching me important lessons about caring
for others and how important it is to hclp.Volunteering,once perceived as a tcdious obligation,had now become a
meaningful opportunity to touch lives-much like the lasting iupxact my mother had made on so many over the
ycars.
