B “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,
35、 but they actually come from James March, a professor at Stanford University and a pioneer in the field of organizational 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
36、 Experience.He begins by reminding 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 serious complications (复杂化), ones that are part of the na
37、ture of experience itself and which March discusses in the body of this book.In one interesting part of the book, for example, he turns a doubtful 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
38、the complicated truth of things. He says “The more accurately 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 through in the depth of
39、views he offers and the simple language 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. 59. According to the text, James March is _.A. a poet who uses experience in
40、his writingB. a teacher who teachers story writing in universityC. a researcher who studies the way humans think and actD. a professor who helps organizations make important decisions60. According to James March, experience _. A. is overvalued B. is easy to explainC. should be actively sought D. sho
41、uld be highly respected61. What can we 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 descr
42、ibed.62. Whats the purpose of this text?A. To introduce a book. B. To describe a researcher.C. To explain experiential learning. D. To discuss organizational decision making.CDoctors sometimes prescribe light therapy to treat a form of depression in people who get too little morning sun. But too muc
43、h light at other times may actually cause such mood disorders. Long-lasting exposure to light at night brings depression, a new study finds, at least in animals.The new data confirm observations from studies of people who work night shifts, says Richard Stevens of the University of Connecticut Healt
44、h Center. Mood disorders join a growing list of problems, including cancer, obesity and diabetesthat can occur when light throws life out of balance by disturbing the biological clock and its timing of daily rhythms.In the new study, Tracy Bedrosian and Randy Nelson of Ohio State University exposed
45、mice to normal light and dark cycles for four weeks. For the next four weeks, half of the mice remained on this schedule, and the rest received continuous dim light throughout their night. Compared with mice exposed to normal nighttime darkness, those getting dim light at night lost their strong pre
46、ference for sweet drinks，“ a sign they no longer get pleasure out of activities they once enjoyed，” Bedrosian says.In a second test, mice were clocked on how long they actively tried to escape a pool of water. Those exposed to night lights stopped struggling and just floated in the water, a sign of
47、“behavioral despair”，10 times as long as the mice that had experienced normal nighttime darkness. All symptoms of depression disappeared within two weeks of the mice returning to a normal light-dark cycle, the researchers report. The scientists also could quash the behavioral symptoms by injecting (
48、注射) the brains of animals with a drug that prohibits the activity of certain molecules linked with human depression. This finding further suggests that light at night may cause something related to depression.Human studies linking nighttime light and mood disorders are important but cant easily dete
49、ct molecular underpinnings (分子基础) as animal studies can，says George Brainard of Thomas Jefferson University. The new work, he says, suggests that the change of the biological clock by light at night can be “an extremely powerful force in regulating biology and behavior. ”63.After being exposed to co

52、on.B. A drug has been found to cure mood disorders.C. The study on animals can be applied to humans.D. Human biological clock can be controlled by light. DThe Great Gatsby was not well received when it was published in 1926. F. Scott Fitzgerald appeared to destroy the American Dream, where in anyone
53、, with enough hard work, could get rich and have whatever they wanted from life. He exposed the truth about such myths in this classic book. Basically, the plot could be described as follows:Poor boy goes East in search of wealth, bored and dissatisfied with inactive Mid West country life.He meets t
54、he super-rich there, attends parties and makes friends with one man in particular, a lonely millionaire of uncertain origins, Jay Gatsby.He becomes involved with these rich but immoral people, the worst of whom are his own cousin Daisy Buchanan, and her husband Tom.He observes, with dawning recognit
55、ion, the corruption in their lives, how lacking in human values or ethical beliefs they seem to be.He watches tragedy unfold, brought about by the handlings of the wealthy, and visited on the poorer characters.He remains the only friend of Gatsby, arranging his funeral and mourning his death, and po
56、ssibly the death of his own American Dream.He wakes up to the reality of what is important in life, and decides to choose what is of value to him.He returns to his origins, having recognized the worth of his up-bringing and the moral values it instilled. He sees that money is not everything.But let
57、us look at this in a little more depth, because the novel is much more complicated than those simple outlines above suggest.The young man, Nick Carraway, aged 29, lived in a cottage on Long Island. He was an apprentice (学徒) Wall Street trader, and in 1920s, when the novel is set, this job represente
58、d a way to get rich, the core value of the American Dream. Gatsby was a millionaire, who chased a dream too, one of rekindling love with Daisy, Nicks cousin, a bored, rich, totally unfeeling and spoilt woman. Her rich husband, Tom Buchanon, a businessman, was also less than moral, flattering his mis
59、tress, Myrtle Wilson, the wife of a garage owner. It was George Wilsons love for Myrtle that brought about the tragedy contained in the Gatsby plot.Gatsby wanted to recapture his dream of love. So he began an affair with Daisy; she was flattered and bored. This action helped to erode Nicks illusions
60、, and show what wealth can do to people. Gatsby suffered from the realization that Daisy was not the wonderful person he dreamed of, but a shallow and materialistic person.Eventually, Tom Buchanan suspected what was happening between Gatsby and Daisy, and confronted Gatsby. It was soon after this th
61、at Daisy ran Myrtle Wilson down, while driving Gatsbys yellow automobile.The tragedy was begun, when Tom Buchanan put the idea into head of George Wilson, that Gatsby had killed Myrtle. In fact, Daisy was secure in the belief that superior status and wealth made her immune, and also, her character w
62、as such that she cared little for another human being. Tom Buchanan was the catalyst (催化剂) that sent the emotionally disturbed George to shoot Gatsby for killing Myrtle, then committing suicide. Two dreams turned to dust：Georges of love and the chance to pursue the dream of capitalist endeavor and s
63、uccess, Gatsbys of recapturing romantic love and the more innocent past, when, in his mind, Daisy was golden and true.The complete destruction was symbolically expressed when none of Gatsbys rich “friends” were touched by his death. It was left to Nick, a relative stranger, to make the funeral arran
64、gements.This highlighted the total shallowness of that wealthy, corrupt society, and showed what a worthless person Daisy herself was.At the end, Nick returned to the beliefs of his Mid Western upbringing. After one last meeting with Tom Buchanan, one last look at Gatsbys mansion, having buried his
65、friend, he left for home. As Gatsby lost his dream and his life. Fitzgerald drew a portrait of the death of the American Dream.67. According to the author, that The Great Gatsby was not being popular in 1926 was probably because it .A. destroyed American dream of that time B. informed readers of Ame
66、rican valueC. described the life of American upper class D. had complicated relationships of the roles68. The following statements about Nick are true EXCEPT that he .A. betrays his only friendGatsby B. is Daisy Buchanans cousinC. was an apprentice Wall Street trader D. is dissatisfied with Mid West

Living well doesnt have much to do with material things. Of course, we all need the basics of life, such as food and shelter. Material things can only ma
70、ke us think we live well, but, in fact, we may not.So, what is living well? Or, more precisely, what is the art of living well?Living well is experiencing a sense of satisfaction, including a feeling of appreciation and thankfulness. This appreciative attitude is like all that is being felt by an ar
71、tist who has just completed his masterpiece, and who is now looking at it with self-pleasure, enjoying what he sees.In real living, where does that satisfaction come from?The satisfaction comes from self-attitude. If you think about it, life is all about youwhat happens to you, and what you think wh
72、at other people think about what happens to you. It is all about you! So, to live well, you must have positive self-attitude or self-concept. Self-concept does not come from what others think of you, but rather what you think of yourself, or how you have made your life meaningful for yourself. The a
73、rt of living well is all about the process, rather than the result-this is the good way against all difficulties in life.However, focusing too much on self may not be helpful to living well. Why not? In Buddhism, heaven may come only after one has denied self or has become “no-self”. Christianity al
74、so focuses on selflessness or modesty, which is really self-importance, or decreasing self.So, living is all about what happens to self and the understanding of other people on what happens to self. But to live well, one needs to shift the focus from self to other people. It is because the strong de
75、sire to satisfy self is forever greedy and hard to achieve; as a matter of fact, it is often the cause of all human unhappiness. The pursuit of wealth may be the final goal of many, and the understanding of self-worth is more often than that of the wealth accumulated. To pursue that end then becomes
76、 the driving force of living. But that pursuit is forever difficult, leading to nowhere.The art of living well is to focus on the journey rather than the destination. The destination is either unreachable or comes to a dead end in either case, life would become meaningless and unfulfilled. The art o
77、f living well is to focus on other people rather than on self. Focusing on other people promotes awareness and loving kindness, which makes life meaningful and worth living.No matter what happens to you, no matter what problems you face in life, you have made a difference in your life as well as in

The trade of drugs is widespread, which costs up to $800 billion every year. As is shown on the chart above, 30% of the teenagers taking drugs are cheated i
85、nto doing it, and 50% are driven by curiosity. Another 15% just seek excitements or try to get rid of their anxieties. The rest try it for some other reasons.As we all know, taking drugs does great harm to our health, even causing people to die at an early age. Meanwhile, it directly contributes to
86、the happening of crimes. But to our sadness, more and more young people begin taking drugs. In order to protect us students from drugs, what should we do? I think, we should be careful to make friends and stay away from those who always behave badly. Also, its very important for us to lead a healthy lifestyle and hold positive attitudes towards life. Do remember that trying drugs out of curiosity is very dangerous. (158words)
