Explanation

The correct answer is "keeping your voice low while acting respectful and courteous to everyone." This answer is the only option that promotes a warm and welcoming environment. Talking loudly and congregating with friends, littering the floor with trash, and leaving your chair pushed out are all behaviors that create a disruptive and unwelcoming atmosphere. On the other hand, keeping your voice low shows consideration for others and acting respectful and courteous to everyone promotes a friendly and inviting atmosphere.

2. I should always check my account when I come to the library with my class.

Explanation

It is important to check one's account when visiting the library with a class because it allows individuals to keep track of their library materials, such as books or DVDs, and ensure that they are returned on time. By checking their account, individuals can also verify if they have any overdue fines or holds on their account, allowing them to address these issues promptly. Additionally, checking one's account can help individuals discover new resources or materials that they may be interested in borrowing during their visit to the library.

Submit
3. If I turn in my overdue book, my fine will stop.  I will, however, still owe for the fine.

Explanation

If the statement "If I turn in my overdue book, my fine will stop" is true, it means that returning the overdue book will result in the cessation of the fine. However, the statement also mentions that the person will still owe for the fine, implying that even though the fine stops, they still have an outstanding debt to pay. Therefore, the correct answer is true, as returning the book stops the accrual of the fine but does not eliminate the obligation to pay the existing fine.

Submit
4. The fiction books are about a subject that is not true.

Explanation

Fiction books are works of literature that are not based on real events or people. They are created from the imagination of the author and can include elements of fantasy, science fiction, or historical fiction. These books are intended to entertain and engage readers with imaginative storytelling rather than presenting factual information. Therefore, the statement that fiction books are about a subject that is not true is accurate, making the correct answer "True".

Submit
5. It costs to print in the library.

Explanation

The statement "It costs to print in the library" implies that there is a fee or charge associated with printing documents in the library. This suggests that library users are required to pay a certain amount for each page they print, indicating that printing services are not provided for free. Therefore, the correct answer is True, as it confirms that there is indeed a cost involved in using the library's printing facilities.

Submit
6. How many books are you allowed to have check out at anytime during the school year?

Explanation

8. What do you call copying information directly from a book, or the Internet, and handing it in to your teacher as your own work?

Explanation

Plagiarism refers to the act of copying information from a book or the Internet and presenting it as one's own work. It involves not giving credit to the original source and is considered unethical and dishonest. This practice undermines the principles of academic integrity and can lead to serious consequences such as academic penalties or even expulsion.

Submit
9. When you look for a fiction book, what name do you have to search for to find in the shelves?

Explanation

To find a fiction book on the shelves, you need to search for the author's last name. This is because books are typically organized alphabetically by the author's last name, making it easier for readers to locate specific books by their favorite authors.

Submit
10. When can you NOT check out a book?

Explanation

You cannot check out a book when it is overdue, as indicated in option A. Additionally, you cannot check out a book if you already have two books checked out, as stated in option C. Therefore, the correct answer is Both A and C.

Submit
11. When you are looking at a book, where can you put it back if you don't want it?

Explanation

If you don't want the book, you can put it back on any available table or on top of the "stack". This means that you have the option to place the book on any table that is free or on top of a pile of books that are already stacked. This suggests that there is flexibility in where you can return the book, as long as it is not on the floor or any random place on the shelf.

Submit
12. Which one of these statements is true?

Explanation

Turning in the overdue book is the most effective way to stop the fine. By returning the book, the borrower acknowledges their responsibility and prevents the accumulation of additional fines.

Explanation

If you have an overdue book and you want to check out another, the correct answer is "Both A and B". This means that you cannot check out another book until you return the overdue one and pay the fine. Returning the book without paying the fine will also prevent you from incurring any further fines.

Submit
14. If your friend could not check out a book and needs a biography to read for Language Arts, what should you do if they ask you to check it out?

Explanation

If your friend asks you to check out a biography for them because they cannot do it themselves, the correct answer is to just say no. This implies that you should not check out the book for them. This could be because it is against the library rules or policies, or because you do not want to take responsibility for their book. It is important to respect the library rules and not engage in any actions that could be considered dishonest or unfair.
