2.Read the passage and choose the proper word or phrases to complete the passage ( 阅读文章,选择恰当的词或词组 )You either have it,or you don't----a sense of direction,that is.But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map,while others can lose themselves in the next street?
Scientists say we're all born with a sense of direction,(61)Cit is not properly understood how it works.One idea is that people with a good sense of direction have worked hard at developing it.Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don't use it,we lose it.
"Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around."Says Jim Martland,Research Director of the project."However,if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car,they will (62)A develop the skills".
Jim Martland also says that young people should be taught certain (63)Bto improve their sense of direction.He makes the following suggestions:
▼If you are using a map,turn it so it helps you to find the way you are facing.
▼If you leave your bike in a strange place,put it near (64)D like a big stone or tree.Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike.When you return,go back along (65)B route.
▼Simplify(简化) the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town,streams,or walls in the countryside to guide you.Count your steps (66)Cyou know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.
Now you will never get lost again!

What will the home of the future look like?A team of architects in Hong Kong say that city homes will be tiny (极小的),as populations continue to (59)grow and space becomes more expensive.
They have designed"space flats"that are only 30square metres in(60)size.These flats have small rooms:a living room,a bathroom and a bedroom,as well as a balcony,but everything is carefully planned to make good use of the limited space.
The living room is the main room of the flat.It can be used as an office,a kitchen and even a second bedroom.There is a sofa that can be changed into a bed.The dining table can be changed into a computer desk.And,if not needed,both the sofa-bed and the table can be folded away (折叠收拢) and stored into a small space in the wall.There is a flat-screen TV,which can also serve as a computer monitor.In one corner of the room,a small cooker,a microwave oven and a small refrigerator are (61)hidden out of sight.
The other rooms are small but practical (实用的).The bathroom contains a toilet and a shower.The double bed in the bedroom can also be a sofa,if (62)necessary.The balcony has enough room for two people to sit and enjoy the view from the block of flats.All the rooms have high ceilings to provide as much storage (贮藏) space as possible,while the flat has large windows to let in (63)plenty of sunlight.
"Space flats"are now being tested in a building in Hong Kong."It's wonderful,"said one citizen."The flat is so well designed that you (64)feel that there is plenty of space."
