问题                     Public Library Service Improvements
    The Grady Public Library is happy to announce some welcome improvements to its facilities and services.
    One important upgrade is the installation of new card-operated photocopiers. These new machines will give library patrons a cost reduction for making photocopies—a $1 copy card now buys 20 photocopies, while $1 cash bought only 15 copies on the old machines. To assist users with the new system, a copy help desk has been set up. During the library’s regular hours, the desk will have a staff member on hand who can explain how to use the machines and also answer general questions about photocopying.
    In an effort to draw more young visitors, the library has enlarged and redecorated its children’s section. In addition to its rows of deep shelves full of children’s books, the basement room also features computers, educational toys, board games, and puzzles. "The children’s department is now larger than almost every other section of the library," said head librarian Ruth Shaw. "It’s a great resource for our community."
    In addition to this, Ms. Shaw has assembled a group of local authors to speak at each of the library’s weekly Writer’s Club meetings. The Writer’s Club has no membership fees or requirements, and is open to anyone interested in writing. For more information about the club, call Irving Wentworth(club founder)at 555-9905.
The library is open on Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
The word "draw" in paragraph 3, line 1 is closest in meaning to:

选项 A、educate.
B、attract.
C、persuade.
D、shelter.

答案B

解析 文中提到图书馆想要吸引更多的年轻人(to draw more young visitors),所以最接近draw的词是attract。如果只留意children,很容易就会错选educate为正确答案。
