15．I travel a lot，and I find out different"styles"of directions every time I ask"How can I get to the post office？"
Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there don't have names； in Japan，people use landmarks（地标）in their directions instead of street names．For example，the Japanese will say to travelers，"Go straight down to the corner．Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market．The post office is across from the bus stop．"
In the countryside of the American Midwest，there are not usually many landmarks．There are no mountains，so the land is very flat； in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles．Instead of landmarks，people will tell you directions and distances．In Kansas or Iowa，for example，people will say，"Go north two miles．Turn east，and then go another mile．"
People in Los Angeles，California，have no idea of distance on the map； they measure distance in time，not miles．"How far away is the post office？"you ask．"Oh，"they answer，"it's about five minutes from here．"You say，"Yes，but how many miles away is it？"They don't know．
It's true that a person doesn't know the answer to your question sometimes．What happens in such a situation？A New Yorker might say，"Sorry，I have no idea．"But in Yucatan，Mexico，no one answers"I don't know．"People in Yucatan believe that"I don't know"is impolite．They usually give an answer，often a wrong one．A tourist can get very，very lost in Yucatan!
28．When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place they usuallyB．
A．describe the place carefully

D．tell him the names of the streets
29．Which is the place where people measure distance in time？C
A．New York．
B．Kansas．
C．Los Angeles．
D．Iowa．
30．People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answerD．
A．in order to save time
B．as a test
C．for fun
D．so as to be polite
31．What can we infer from the text？C
A．It's useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly．
B．People have similar understandings of politeness．
C．It's important for travelers to understand cultural differences．
D．New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors．

14．Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever，even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started．Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country．In fact，according to an official report on youth violence，"In our country today，the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment，but the terrible reality of violence"．Given that this is the case，why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems，drive cars，or stay physically fit？
First of all，students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable．A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult （侮辱）．For example，a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime．Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults，which in turn can lead to violence．The problem isn't in the sandwich，but in the way students deal with the conflict．
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable，they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution （解决）：stay calm．Once the student feels calmer，he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well．Rude words，namecalling，and accusations only add fuel to the emotional fire．On the other hand，soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control．
After both sides have calmed down，they can use another key strategy （策略） for conflict resolution：listening．Listening allows the two sides to understand each other．One person should describe his or her side，and the other person should listen without interrupting．Afterward，the listener can ask nonthreatening questions to clarify the speaker's position．Then the two people should change roles．
Finally，students need to consider what they are bearing．This doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person．It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish．For example，a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things．Students need to ask themselves questions such as these：How did this start？What do I really want？What am I afraid of？As the issue becomes clearer，the conflict often simply becomes smaller．Even if it doesn't，careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual（彼此共同的） solution．
There will always be conflict in schools，but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence．After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program，according to Educators for Social Responsibility，"64percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom； 75percent of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation； and 92percent of the students felt better about themselves"．Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends，teachers，parents，bosses，and coworkers．In that way，conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country．

Organize（组织）your time into a few parts if you ave more than an hour's work，give yourself a break after an hour．On the other hand，don't break it up so much that you can't get anything done．You should be able to work at least half an hour at a time without stopping．
Don't put it off until the last minute．If you put off doing your homework，you'll have it on your mind．If you put it off until the end of the week or until right before a test，you will have too much catching up to do．A little bit each night，enough to keep up with what is happening each day in school，will take the fear at tests and keep you on top of it all．

Aunt Edith didn't accept defeat easily．She began studying medical reports in library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart doctor，Dr．Michael Debakey，of Houston，Texas．He had saved the life of someone with the same illness．The article said Dr Debakey's fees were very high；Aunt Edith couldn't possibly pay them．But could he tell her of someone whose fee she could pay？?
