In the times of the Caliph Haroun-al-Raschid there lived in Bagdad a poor porter named Sindbad, who on a very hot day was sent to carry a heavy load from one end of the city to the other. Before he had accomplished half the distance he was so tired that, finding himself in a quiet street where the pavement was sprinkled with rose water, and a cool breeze was blowing, he set his burden upon the ground, and sat down to rest in the shade of a grand house. Very soon he decided that he could not have chosen a pleasanter place; a delicious perfume of aloes wood and pastilles came from the open windows and mingled with the scent of the rose water which steamed up from the hot pavement. Within the palace he heard some music, as of many instruments cunningly played, and the melodious warble of nightingales and other birds, and by this, and the appetizing smell of many dainty dishes of which he presently became aware, he judged that feasting and merry making were going on. He wondered who lived in this magnificent house which he had never seen before, the street in which it stood being one which he seldom had occasion to pass.

Internet Is Not a Substitute for Libraries Earlier, students could only scan libraries to research for their essays and reports. However, living in the age of the internet has made accessing information easier than ever. The internet as a source of information has enabled many students, researchers, professionals, and even teachers to effectively and quickly improve their work. But it is not the best source of research. People can write whatever they think or feel about a subject and publish it on the internet, which can be biased, inaccurate, and even insensitive. Libraries, on the other hand, only house selective and original resource materials that have been thoroughly researched and reviewed before being published. A major problem with the internet is that the information is uncatalogued and saturated with a lot more information than what is needed. For instance, a search engine will provide an ample amount of recent content regardless of how useful. Libraries have not only a proper classifying system to organize all the information but also a person to sort and filter that information. Still, many people argue that libraries are not ideal for research because they do not work around the clock, but the originality and many benefits of libraries are undeniable. Therefore, the internet, despite being an essential tool for modern life, should not be the only nof research for students to explore. 3 Select the correct answer. What claim does the author make about the resource materials available on the internet? A. The information is exclusive and provides an in-depth analysis of a topic. B. The information is unreliable because the internet lacks quality control. C. The information is unfiltered and provides a platform for opposing views and opinions. D. The information is instant because of how easy it is to upload information on the internet.
