You can also use LINQ to select which entries you want to extract. For example:

using (var zip = ZipFile.Read(ArchiveToRead))
{
    var selection = from e in zip.Entries
        where System.IO.Path.GetFileName(e.FileName).StartsWith("C")
        select e;

    foreach (var e in selection)
        e.Extract(extractDir);
}

Of course you can use whatever query criteria you want in the where clause.
