Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: D) The advantage of looking at books in a school library is that the librarians and faculty have determined those books are worthy of being in the library's collection. The disadvantage is that libraries rarely have the newest books since it often takes a long time for a library to acquire a book.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Bookslike print articlescan be more valuable than online resources because books are often professionally reviewed, edited, and produced by reputable authors and publishing companies with established credibility. By contrast, anyone can post resources online about nearly anything. The drawback with books is that they may become outdated more quickly than online content, which can be updated regularly.
