9.The Boy Made It!
One Sunday,Nicholas,a teenager,went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine.In the early afternoon,when he was planning to go home,a fierce snowstorm swept into the area.Unable to see far,he accidentally turned off the path.Before he knew it,Nicholas was lost,all alone!He didn't have food,water,a phone,or other supplies.He was getting colder by the minute.
Nicholas had no idea where he was.He tried not to panic.He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV.It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.
He decided to stop skiing.There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put.The first thing he did was to find shelter form the freezing wind and snow.If he didn't,his bodytemperature would get very low,which could quickly kill him.Using his skis,Nicholas built a snow cave.He gathered a hugemass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle.Then he piledbranches on top of himself,like a blanket,to stay as warm as hecould.
By that evening,Nicholas was really hungry.He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn't lose toomuch water.Not knowing how much longer he could last,Nicholasdid the only thing he could-he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.
The next day,Nicholas went out to look for help,but he couldn'tfind anyone.He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave,because without shelter,he could die that night.On Tuesday,Nicholas went out again to find help.He had walked for about a milewhen a volunteer searcher found him.After two days stuck in thesnow,Nicholas was saved.
Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV.He had often watched Grylls'survival show Man vs.Wild.That's where he learned the tips that saved his life.In each episode(一期节目) of Man vs.Wild,Grylls is abandoned in a wild area andhas to find his way out.When Grylls heard about Nicholas'amazing deeds,he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.

20."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 from James March,a predecessor at Stanford University and a pioneer in the field of organization decision making.53For 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 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 (涉及)serious complications(复杂化),ones that are part of the nature of experience itself 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.55In our efforts to make stories interesting,he argues,we lose part of the complicated truth of things.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 language he uses.Though the book is short,it is demanding:54Don't pick it up looking for quick,easy lessons.Rather,be ready to think deeply about learning from experience in work and life.

53.According to the text,James March isC.

B.a teacher who teachers story writing in university
C.a researcher who studies the way humans think and act
D.a professor who helps organizations make important decisions
54.According to James March,experience.A
A.is overvalued
B.is easy to explain
C.should be actively sought
D.should be highly respected
55.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?B
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.

1.Mothers and daughters go through so much-yet when was the last time a mother and daughter sat down to write a book together about it all?Perri Klass and her mother,Sheila Solomon Klass,both gifted professional writers,prove to be ideal co-writers as they examine their decades of motherhood,daughterhood,and the wonderful ways their lives have overlapped (重叠).
  Perri notes with amazement how closely her own life has mirrored her mother's:both have full-time careers; both have published books,articles,and stories; each has three children; they both love to read.They also love to travel-in fact,they often take trips together.But in truth,the harder they look at their lives,the more they acknowledge their big differences in circumstance and basic nature.
  A child of the Depression (大萧条),Sheila was raised in Brooklyn by parents who considered education a luxury for girls.Starting with her college education,she has fought for everything she's ever accomplished.Perri,on the other hand,grew up privileged in the New Jersey suburbs of the 1960s and 1970s.For Sheila,wasting time or money is a crime,and luxury is unthinkable while Perri enjoys the occasional small luxury,but has not been successful at trying to persuade her mother into enjoying even the tiniest thing she likes.
  Each writing in her own unmistakable voice,Perri and Sheila take turns exploring the joys and pains,the love and bitterness,the minor troubles and lasting respect that have always bonded them together.Sheila describes the adventure of giving birth to Perri in a tiny town in Trinidad where her husband was doing research fieldwork.Perri admits that she can't sort out all the mess in the households,even though she knows it drives her mother crazy.Together they compare thoughts on bringing up children and working,admit long-hidden sorrows,and enjoy precious memories.
  Looking deep into the lives they have lived separately and together,Perri and Sheila tell their mother-daughter story with honesty,humor,enthusiasm,and admiration for each other.A written account in two voices,Every Mother Is a Daughter is a duet(二重奏) that produces a deep,strong sound with the experiences that all mothers and daughters will recognize.

55.Why does Perri think that her own life has mirrored her mother's?D
A.They both have gone through difficult times.
B.They have strong emotional ties with each other.
C.They have the same joys and pains,and love and bitterness.

A.something rare but not pleasant                        
B.something that cannot be imagined
C.something expensive but not necessary              
D.something that can only be enjoyed by boys

B.The purpose of the book.
C.The influence of the book.
D.The writing style of the book.
