Book Shops in London

Londoners are great readers.They buy vast numbers of newspapers and magazines and of books一specially paperbacks,which are still comparatively cheap in spite of ever-increasing rises in
the costs of printing. They still continue to buy"proper"books,too,printed on good paper and bound between hard covers.
There are many streets in London containing shops which specialize in book-selling. Perhaps the best known of these is Charring Cross Road in the very heart of London.Here bookshops of all sorts and sizes are to be found,from the celebrated one which boasts of being"the biggest bookshop in the world"to the tiny,dusty little places which seem to have been left over from Dicken's time. Some of these shops stock,or will obtain,any kind of book,but many of them specialize in second-hand books,in art books,in foreign books,in books on philosophy,politics or any other of the myriad subjects about which books may be written.One shop in this area specializes solely in books about ballet.
Although it may be the most convenient place for Londoners to buy books,Charring Cross Road is not the cheapest. For the really cheap second-hand volumes,the collector must venture off the beaten track,to Farringdon Road,for example,in the East Central district of London.Here there is nothing so grandiose as bookshops.Instead,the booksellers come along each morning and tip out their sacks of books on the small barrows（流动集售货车）which line the gutters（街沟）.And the collectors,some professional and some amateur, who have been waiting for them,pounce（一把抓住）upon the dusty cascaded（一叠叠图书）.In places like this one can still, occasionally, pick up for a few pence an old volume that may be worth many pounds.
选项 If you want to buy really cheap second-hand books,you must________.
A:venture in a most busy street
B:venture away from a busy street
C:take the risk of being beaten off the street
D:take the risk of wasting time to hunt them in less noticeable street
答案D
解析这一句的含义是伦敦人喜爱读书。相比较而言，选项D符合题意，因此， D为正确答案。
查英街是因为书店众多而闻名。这一点在文章第二段明确表达。因此，正确答案为B
在文章第二段作者谈到要买便宜书就要打破常规到小摊上买。选项D与题意相符，因此，答案为D。
选项A不对，是因为文章中明确指出弗登街没有像样的书店。选项B不对是因为文章中指出卖主用流动售货车卖书，而不是小书店。D项与文章内容完全相反。因此，选项C为答案。
文章虽然谈到书店，但重点是放在教读者如何购书，因此，选项D与文章大意相符。
