6.All of England
In fact,literary landmarks are so common in London that"blue plaques(木牌)"have been introduced to show off well-known literary sites.One of the more interesting plaques can be found at 221B Baker Street-the apartment of famous fictional detective Sherlock Holmes(although we can be pretty sure that he never actually stayed there).
Outside of London,it is possible to take organized tours around the countryside where England best writers grew up.If you join a Charles Dickens or Jane Austen tour,you'll have the unique opportunity to visit the locations of famous fictional scenes.But to truly experience literature in person,you can visit Stratford-upon-Avon,the birthplace of William Shakespeare,and watch nightly performances of his plays.
Shanghai,China
Shanghai is a really charming city,where-underneath the surface of the city-one can find some real literary treasures.One star of Shanghai literature is Lu Xun,a writer often celebrated as the father of modern Chinese literature,who spent his last nine years in the city.It's necessary,then,for all Shanghai literary travelers to visit Lu Xun Park,which features a memorial hall dedicated to the great writer.
Another place worth visiting is the old neighborhood of poet Xu Zhimo.Xu is well known for bringing"New Wave"romanticist poetry into Chinese works.Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore once stayed at his home while visiting Shanghai.
Rome,Italy
The English romantic poet John Keats once traveled to Rome in the hope that the Mediterranean air would cure his tuberculosis(肺结核).It didn't,and Keats died within three months.
Despite the fact that Keats'visit was a quick one,Rome has a reminder of it-the Keats-Shelley House.Keats'former home has been transformed into a small museum,complete with a working library.
What's more,just across the street is the Antico Caffe Greco,a cafe frequented by famous authors like Charles Dickens,Load Byron,Henry James,Hans Christian Andersen,Mary Shelley…We could go on,but you probably get the idea that this is somewhere any literary traveler has to go.

24.This passage is mainly aboutD in different places.

14.In my early 30s,I used an expired(过期的)student ID to buy discounted movie tickets.I'd tell myself,I'm buying a ticket I wouldn't have otherwise bought.I think many people have done similar things; however,we still think of ourselves as honest citizens.Researchers who study these behaviors believe that character isn't the real reason.We might break the rules under some conditions and in some mind-sets,but not in others.
Years ago,Francesca Gino,a professor at Harvard,and Dan Ariely,a behavioural economist at Duke,wondered if people with higher IQs were more likely to cheat.They found that cleverness wasn't closely connected to dishonesty,but creativity was.The more creative you are,the easier it is to retell the story of what happened when you behaved dishonestly.
Harvard University psychologist Joshua Greene argues in his book Moral Tribes that we may be born without having a clear sense of right and wrong,but our culture sharpens it.If your tribe downloads pirated(盗版的)music,you're likely to go with the flow.
Harvard researcher Leslie John,along with two colleagues conducted an experiment.They told volunteers that others in the room were making more money than they were for getting questions right on a test.Guess what happened?That group,which considered itself disadvantaged,cheated more than those who believed that everyone received an equal payment.
The real threat is that rule breaking worsens over time.Behavioural psychology offers a few antidotes.Keep yourself fed and well-rested-we're likelier to behave badly when hungry or tired.Reflect on how your actions look through others'eyes and see yourselves in a positive light.In a Stanford study,when researchers used the verb cheat-please don't cheat-hardly anyone did.

32.According to Francesca Gina,who are likeliest to break the rules in a company?B
A.Accountants    
B.Designers  
 C.Cleaners
D.Typists
33.Why did volunteers in Leslie John's experiment cheat more than others?C
A.Because they were not as smart as others.
B.Because they thought others cheated too.
C.Because they felt a sense of unfairness.
D.Because they were tired and hungry.
34.The underlined word"antidotes"in the last paragraph can be replaced byB.
A.explanations  
B.solutions
C.studies  
D.novels
35.What's the best title for the text?A
A.Why people break the rules.
B.How people break the rules.
C.The influence of breaking the rules.
D.Different ways of breaking the rules.
