阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
“Experience may possibly be the best teacher,but it is not a particularly 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 bookThe 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(简洁化),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:Don’t pick it up looking for quick,easy lessons. Rather,be ready to think deeply about learning from experience in work and life.
1. According to the text,James March is .
A. a poet who uses experience in his writing
B. a teacher who teaches story writing in university
C. a researcher who studies the way humans think and act
D. a professor who helps organizations make important decisions
2. According to James March,experience .
A. is overvalued B. is easy to explain
C. should be actively sought D. should be highly respected
3. 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.
4. What’s the purpose of this text?
A. To introduce a book. B. To describe a researcher.
C. To explain experiential learning. D. To discuss organizational decision making.

Dear Sir,
My name is Li Hua, from Guang Ming High School in Beijing, China. I would like to apply for admission to the English Dept. of your school.
I am a seventeenyearold boy, and now in Senior 3. I am sociable, easygoing, and good at communicating with others. I have made many friends and I can work well in a team. Meanwhile, I am quite independent and it is easy for me to adapt to a new environment.
As a senior student, I have been working hard at my lessons and have managed to get fairly high grades. I am sure that I shall graduate at the top of my class. I am especially good at English, and have won the first prize in an English Speech Contest in our school. All this will enable me to continue my study in your English department without having much trouble with a language barrier. Therefore, I believe English is a good major for me.
I should be grateful if you can take my application into consideration.
