There are many different ways of seeing a town for the first time．One of them is to walk around it，guide-book  36  hand. Of course，we may  37  with our guide-books the history and   38   developments of a town and get to know them.

  39  then，if we take our time and   40  in a town for a while，we may get to know it better. When we   41   it as a whole，we begin to have some  42  ，which even the best guide-books do not answer．Why is the town just   43   this，this shape，this plan，this size? Why do its streets   44  in this particular way, and not in any

  45  way?

Here even the best guide-book   46   us．One can’t find in it the information about how a town has developed to the  47  appearance. It may not describe the

original（最初的）  48  of a town．However，one may get some idea of what it
