best teacher，but it is not a particulary 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 organizational decision making. for years march( possibly the 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 the book，for example, he turns a doubtful eye toward the use of stories as the most effective way of experiential learning. in our efforts to make stories interesting, he argues, we lose part of the complicated truth of things. he says“the more accurately(精确地)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 through in the depth of views he offers and the simple language he uses. though the book is short, it is demanding：dont pick it up looking for quick, easy lessons. rather, be ready to think deeply about learning from experience in work and life.多年来，人们强调经验型学习。而一位名叫james mark的却说：经验可能是最好的老师，却不是一个特别好的老师。通过对于经验型学习，本文介绍了james mark的关于经验的书。13according to the text, james march is _.aa poet who uses experience in his writingba teacher who teaches story writing in universityca researcher who studies the way humans think and actda professor who helps organizations make important decisions答案：c。细节判断题。从第一个段落中最后一句话里可以找到信息句，即同选项c所说的一致。14according to james march, experience _.ais overvalued bis easy to explaincshould be actively soughtdshould be highly respected答案：a推理判断题。从文章的开头以及文中的字里行间“the problem is.” “turn a doubtful eye on.” 以及“think deeply about experience learning”等可以推测出james 对于经验学习持怀疑态度，认为人们太过于重视经验学习这一方式了。15what can we learn from paragraph 3?aexperience makes stories more accurate.bstories made interesting fail to fully present the truth.cthe use of stories is the best way of experiential learning.dstories are easier to understand when reality is more accurately described.答案：b。细节判断题。在倒数第二段中，james所说的话中“to make stories more interesting, we lose part of the complicated truth of things”就表明了故事越有趣，就越没有真实感，同选项b所说。16whats the purpose of this text?ato introduce a book.bto describe a researcher.cto explain experiential learning.dto discuss organizational decision making.答案：a。作者意图判断题。纵观全文，作者一直都在围绕着一本书，在阐述关于本书中的内容以及本书作者的观点等，故选a。 高考英语冲刺阅读理解专项-ba rise in the number of suicides（自杀）in south korea has led policeman yoo byong-jong to a new job. he patrols（巡逻）seouls bridges to prevent desperate people throwing themselves into the river. according to south koreas health ministry, suicide rates have doubled in a decade and are now the leading cause of death for people in their 20s and 30s. the country has the fourthhighest suicide rate among the 30 industrialized countries in the organization for economic cooperation and development. it recorded 22.8 suicide deaths for every 100, 000 people in 2003. thats lower than hungary，finland and close neighbor japan . but the number is growing by about 1 percent each year，faster than for all other oecd nations. in a move to cut suicides by a fifth by 2010，the health ministry is running a television ad campaign. it opens with a lonely man walking on a bridge. a voiceover says，“think five minutes more before you give it all away.dont forget you have a loving family.” other ministry plans include setting up more hotlines and training more suicide counselors. authorities are also limiting websites that provide suicide methods and sometimes even sell toxic(有毒的)chemicals. distressed individuals range from students worried about poor grades to people in debt as well as disgraced politicians. exports say the rising number in some way can be blamed on media coverage of recent highprofile suicides. these include top business leaders and celebrities(名人)who apparently lead a number of people to copy their actions. “we saved 50 lives this year when people turned to bridges as a place to die after news reports of such deaths by big shots，” said the 38yearold yoo，in december.last july，the government and civil associations urged media to avoid reporting specific methods and locations of suicides. but it is difficult to clearly give reasons for the suicide
