27、kets did so.

30、 They allow independent travelers to get local knowledge of places they are visiting, from the official to the unusual. Meanwhile, hi-tech developments are creating new ways for us to map the world. Here are two of our favorites;Green MapsGreen Maps allows people to share with the world their knowle
31、dge of environmentally friendly places and attractions in the local areas. Users add information with a set of icons (图标), making it easy to read any map, whatever the nationalities of those who produce it. At present there are over five hundred Map projects being developed in 54 countries. Green Ma
32、ps advertised idea is “think global, map local”. It is a wonderful way of gaining all sorts of a place, ranging from community garden to good places of bird watching.Green Maps is not specifically intended for travelers. Not all of its maps are online, so it may be necessary for some users to commun
33、icate with producers through the Green Maps website.Maps MashupsMany people use online maps developed by Google, but not many know about the mashups of them. Working in a similar way to Green Maps, Maps Mashups allows people to add icons of their own to existing maps to express a certain topic. The
34、mashups is so called because it combines all the knowledge you could ever need. It ranges from the extremely useful, such as where all the World Heritage Site are, to the most bizarre (古怪的),such as where Americas drunkest cities are. With the mashups added to the basic Google Maps, a multi-layered (

Users need to communicate with produces.CGetting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.I
38、n the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath
39、 houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disea
40、se, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of prevent
41、ing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War . Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea; clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugel
42、y nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家),encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter p
43、osition is gaining some ground.64. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because A. they lived healthily in a dirty environment.B. they thought bath houses were to dirty to stay in C. they believed disease could be spread in public bathsD. they considered bathing as
44、the cause of skin disease65. Which of the following best describes Henry IVs attitude to bathing?A. Afraid. B. Curious. C. Approving. D. Uninterested.66. How does the passage mainly develop?A. By providing examples. B. By making comparisons.C. By following the order of time. D. By following the orde
45、r of importance.67. What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?A. To stress the role of dirt. B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To call attention to the danger of dirt. D. To present the change of views on dirt.DWilliam Butler Yeats, a most famous Irish writer, was born in Dublin on Jun
46、e 13, 1865. His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. In fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his familyboth his father and his brother were painters. But h
47、e finally settled on literature, particularly drama (戏剧) and poetry.Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginni
48、ng. He didnt lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.Compared with his dramatic works, Yeatss poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensib
49、ility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.He had not enjoyed a major public life since winning the Nobel Price in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he woul
50、d who probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet Auden wrote, among others, the following liners:Earth, receive an honored guest:William Yeats is laid to rest.Let the Irish vessel (船) lieEmptied of its poetry.68. Which of the following can des
51、cribe Yeatss family?A. It filled Yeatss childhood with laughter. B. It was shocked by Yeatss choice.C. It was a typically wealthy family. D. It had an artistic atmosphere.69. According to the passage, what do we know about Yeatss life?A. Yeats founded the first Irish theater.B. Yeats stuck to modern
52、 forms in his poetry.C. Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s.D. Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Noble Prize.70. What kind of feeling is expressed in W. H. Audens lines?A. Envy. B. Sympathy. C. Emptiness. D. Admiration.71. What is the passage mainly about?A. Yeats l
53、iterary achievements. B. Yeats historical influence.C. Yeats artistic ambition. D. Yeats national honor.E“Experience may possibly be the best teacher, but it is not a particularly good teacher.” You might think that Winston Churchill or perhaps Mark Twain spoke those words, but they actually come fr
54、om James March, a predecessor at Stanford University and a pioneer in the field of organization decision making.for years March (possibly be wisest philosopher of management) has studied how humans think and act, and he continues to do so in his new book The Ambiguities of Experience.He begins by re
55、minding us of just how firmly we have been sticking to the idea of experiential learning: “Experience is respected;experience is sought;experience is explained.” The problem is that learning from experience involves (涉及)serious complications(复杂化),ones that are part of the nature of experience itself
56、 and which March discusses in the body of this book.In one interesting part of book,for example,he turns a double eye toward the use of stories as the most effective way of experiential learning. In our efforts to make stories interesting, he argues, we lose part of the complicated truth of things.
57、He says “The more accurately (精确的)reality is presented,the less understandable the story,and the more understandable the story, the less realistic it is.”Besides being a broadly knowledgeable researcher,March is also a poet, and his gift shines though in the depth of views he offers and the simple l
58、anguage he uses. Though the book is short, it is demanding:Dont pick it up looking for quick, easy lessons. Rather, be ready to think deeply about learning from experience in work and life.72. According to the text, James March is .A. a poet who uses experience in his writingB. a teacher who teacher
59、s story writing in universityC. a researcher who studies the way humans think and actD. a professor who helps organizations make important decisions73. According to James March, experience .A. is overvalued B. is easy to explainC. should be actively sought D. should be highly respected74. What can w
60、e learn from Paragraph 3?A. Experience makes stories more accurate.B. Stories made interesting fail to fully present the truth.C. The use of stories is the best way of experiential learning.D. Stories are easier to understand when reality is more accurately described.75. Whats the purpose of this te
61、xt?A. To introduce a book. B. To describe a researcher.C. To explain experiential learning. D.
