Illustrative situation:
Yesterday I went to our academy library. There were a lot of students there. They all were working. The student at the first table was reading an English text. From time to time he was looking up s word in the big dictionary. A girl was coping some information from an encyclopedia. When I saw Nick he was reading a thick book.
