It is relevant (相关的). When searching for information in the database, you should be able to get results relevant to you. There are several ways to search through a database, for example, using keywords, subject headings, terminology (术语),etc. 【2】
【3】 One of the main differences between the information you find on the internet and that in databases is that the information found in databases is often confirmed. Furthermore, the information in the database should have key identifiers such as the publication (发表)details, author’s name, and a summary that you can use to confirm the information.
It is accessible. First of all, access to the library is either free or bought by supporters so that you can access the information within it at no price. 【4】 Secondly, the database should provide the full-text of the articles, meaning you will not need to go to the library or the source to do so.
【5】 It is an academic search engine. It doesn’t always have the articles' full texts, and you may have to go to their libraries and find or pay for them. Also, the search engine collects seemingly academic information from the internet and some of this information isn't always confirmed.
A.It is reliable.
B.It is reasonable.
C.You may have to pay a small amount of money as an independent researcher.
D.Google Scholar isn't a database using the above three aspects as a determining factor.
E.It is organized so that searching and finding this information is easy and rapid.
F.They are all relevant factors to be referred to when searching educational databases.
G.So you can limit your search results to a certain source type or date, or you can search by author or title.

26、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
People often have a tough time dealing with their feelings of disappointment. That is when you should give them time and understanding and he or she just might come around before long.
I remember talking with my friend Avery about the coming school play Alices Adventure in Wonderland, which we both applied for. Avery had a talent for acting and she was anxious for playing Alice while for me I didn’t care what part I played as long as I would be in. However, when character list was posted, we were surprised to find that I got the part of Alice and Avery was chosen to act the rabbit. I guessed it was because I hadn’t been nervous at all during the audition (试演). But that situation really didn’t occur to me.
Then I asked Avery, “Do you want to come over after school and we can practice our lines?” “You mean, practice your lines?” Avery replied, not even looking at me. “No, thanks. I’m pretty busy this week.” I continued to ask if it would be OK for next week but her answer was negative and full of anger.
That night at dinner, after my parents congratulated me on getting the lead role, they asked how I felt. “Well, I can’t understand.” I said and told them about Avery’s reaction and I believed that she pretty much threw away our friendship.
“Hmm,” said my dad. “Arizona, don’t you think this might be an opportunity for you to be an extra-good friend?” “Dad’s right,” added my mom. “Sometimes when our friends do well, we feel envious (羡慕的) and don’t know how to act. Try giving her a little time and understanding. She’ll come around.”
Over the next week, I did my best to give Avery some space. I practised my lines but I knew I needed some help since my voice was not expressive enough. Day by day, Avery’s attitude seemed softened. As the rehearsal (彩排) day was near, I made a decision.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
One day after school in the rehearsal room, I approached Avery.
