  For five days,Edmonton's Downtown Park is transformed into one huge stage where artists are able to share their talents, and where people are able to celebrate and enjoy themselves .Since is beginning in 1980,the Edmonton Folk Music Festival has been commemorating(念)the ture feeling of what folk music is all about and that's the traditional togetherness(友爱)that is felt when people gather to share stories and feelings through song.

  This year will be the sixth year when volunteer Riedel will be offering up her time to the festival. "People coming off a busy spring and summer have a moment of relaxation ," Riedel said. "It's really east to relax, and it's great seeing family and friends have fun together." These families and friends come from all different kinds of musical tastes. People who take pleasure in Blues are there, so are people who love Bluegrass. This festival does its best to develop everyone's musical interests.

  With so many years of expenence .the festival has become a well-oiled machine, and does whatever it can to make attendees feel as possible. There are free water stations throughout the venue(举办地)for people to fill up their travel cups. When people buy food, reusable ashes are given a $2 plate fee, but that is returned when the plate is brought back.

  The festival has completely sold out of tickets, and in record time. But with big names such as Van Morrison and Jakob Dylan, it’s easy to see how that was going to happen. There is no parking area during the festival, so using the Park & Ride system or Edmonton Transit is highly recommended. A bike lock-up area is provided and will be available Thursday until Sunday one hour before the gates open until 45 minutes after the gates close.

  (2011·四川卷)D

  “Experience may possibly be the best teacher, but it is not a particular good teacher.” You might think that Winston Churchill or perhaps Mark Twain spoke those words, but they actually come from James March, a professor at Stanford University and a pioneer in the field of organization decision making. For 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. 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;Don’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 is ____________.

  A. a poet who uses experience in his writing

  B. a teacher who teachers story writing in university

  C. a researcher who studies the way humans think and act

  C. should be actively sought

  55. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?

  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.

  D. Stories are easier to understand when reality is more accurately described.

  Some years ago, I was hired by an American bank. I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started, "Dear John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us." That "quite" saddened me. I thought he was saying "we're kind of pleased you decided to join

  us although I wish we had hired someone else." Then I discovered that in American English "quite"sometimes means "very", while in British English it means "fairly".

  So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't

  just mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures(文化).

  Some of these differences may be only on the surface一dress, food and hours of work一while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate(气候),while getting on with business.

  Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better; you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality(准时).If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the

  American Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word "late" because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.

  52. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought______.

  A. the American bank didn't think much of him

  B. the American bank might hire another person

  C. it's difficult to get used to American culture

  D. it's easy to misunderstand Americans

  53.The word "highlights" in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.

  A. encourages B. helps to narrow

  C. increases D. draws attention to

  54. According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?

  A. Ask the native people for help.

  B. Understand and accept them.

  C. Do things in our own way.

  D. Do in-depth research.

  55. When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are______.

  A. Italians B. Germans C. Greeks D. the British

  答案:ADBB
