Zora Neale Hurston proves to be a study in contrasts a black writer reaching a white audience,a woman struggling in a man's profession,an independent thinker living in a conformist(墨守成规的) era. Now,almost 50 years since her death,her hard work and great novels still have much to teach the modem audience. She overcame the challenges she faced and showed that determination makes anything possible.

Hurston thought much of her deeply individualistic personality was developed because of the experience of growing up in Eatonville,Florida. The town was unique in that it was particularly hot in the summer,but mild at other times of the year. Hurston always said growing up in a community totally separate from the larger white society allowed her freedom and independence not available to everyone in the south.

Hurston began her undergraduate studies at Howard University,but her obvious intelligence and talent soon earned her a scholarship to Barnard College in New York City. Moving north in the 1920s helped her get to know the Harlem Renaissance,a black cultural movement that produced exceptional achievements in literature,art,and music. Communicating with the likes of Langston Hughes,W.E. B. DuBois,Billie Holiday,and Duke Ellington,Hurston developed her skills as a writer and published lots of short stories and poems.

Her most influential work grew out of her attempt to record the black experience. That novel,called Their Eyes Were Watching God,was about three generations of a family living in Eatonville. Her interesting representation of the southern dialect caused her Harlem Renaissance contemporaries to look down upon the work for what they saw as its spread of inaccurate patterns. Hurston,however,remained true to her project,believing that the accuracy of her representation would finally win over the political pressures her peers forced her to accept.

History has shown that Hurston was right. Modem critics admire her authentic(真实的) and skillful representation of the language as well as her realistic description of daily life in the early twentieth century. She is universally considered as one of the best writers of her era and ranked with Toni Morrison,Maya Angelou,and Alice Walker as one of the most important African-American writers of all time.

A weather map is an important tool for geographers. A series of three or four maps presents a continuous picture of weather changes. Weather forecasters are able to determine the speed of air masses and fronts; to determine whether a pressure area is deepening or becoming shallow and whether a front is increasing or decreasing in intensity (强度) .They are also able to determine whether an air mass is keeping its original characteristics or taking on those of the surface over which it is moving. Thus,a most important function of the map is to show a general picture of conditions in the atmosphere at a given time.

All students of geography should be able to interpret a weather map accurately. Weather maps contain a large amount of information about weather conditions existing at the time of observation over a large geographical area. They reveal in a few minutes what otherwise would take hours to describe. The United States Weather Bureau issues information about approaching storms,floods,frosts and all climatic conditions in general. Twice a month it issues a 30-day “out-look” which is a rough guide to weather conditions likely to occur over broad areas of the United States. These 30-day outlooks are based upon an analysis of the upper air levels which often set the stage for the development of air masses,fronts,and storms.

Much effort is being made today to achieve more accurate weather predictions. With the use of electronic instruments and earth satellites,big gains have taken place recently in recognizing and tracking storms over regions which have few meteorological stations（气象台）. A lot of experiments are also in progress for weather modification（人工改变天气) studies. But the limitations of weather modification have produced few results except in the seeding（撒干冰） of super cooled,upslope mountainous winds which have produced additional rainfall on the windward(上风的) side of mountain ranges.
