32、schools and colleges teach and how their students learn will be interested in the memoir （回忆录）of Ralph W. Tyler, who is one of the most famous men in American education. Born in Chicago in 1902, brought up and schooled in Nebraska, the 19-year-old college graduate Ralph Tyler became hooked on teachi

33、ng while teaching as a science teacher in South Dakota and changed his major from medicine to education.Graduate work at the University of Chicago found him connected with honorable educators Charles Judd and W.W. Charters, whose ideas of teaching and testing had an effect on his later work. In 1927

34、, he became a teacher of Ohio State University where he further developed a new method of testing. Tyler became well-known in 1938, when he carried his work with the Eight-Year Study from Ohio State University to the University of Chicago at the invitation of Robert Hutchins. Tyler was the first dir

35、ector of the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford, a position he held for twelve years. There, he firmly believed that researchers should be free to seek an independent （独立的）spirit in their work. Although Tyler officially retired in 1967, he never actually retired. He ser

36、ved on a long list of educational organizations in the United States and abroad. Even in his 80s he traveled across the country to advise teachers and management people on how to set objectives （目标）that develop the best teaching and learning within their schools.55.

39、rit in researchC. he still led the Eight-Year Study D. he was still active in giving adviceCThe right name is important in the business world. All you have to do is think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and youll agree that the name and the product are connected in everyones

40、mind. In many countries, successful trade or brand names are protected by law. This is so that other companies cannot make a product that looks like another. People might think that they were buying one product and, in fact, be buying something different. Businesses register a company or a product n

41、ame with the government. In fact, more than 1,000 product and company names are registered every hour. Many companies spend a lot of money to find the right name for their products. A good example of this is in the car industry. Some successful names for cars have powerful associations. The Ford Mus

42、tang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong. When a U.S. company decides to sell its product in another country, it has to make sure that the product name translates properly. When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China, it looked for the

43、 right name. It wanted a name that would do two things. One was to present its image in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand name Coke. It took some efforts before finding the right word which sounds similar and translates as “happiness in the mouth”. Asian company names are not

44、 new to the United States. The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful. Finding the right brand name is a big business. Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers. There are even naming companies that specialize in inventing prod

45、uct names. These companies can charge up to $ 100,000 a word for their creations. But its worth it. Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their development. 59.

46、help people choose the best products.C. To present good images of the products. D. To prevent products from being copied.60. What can we learn from the passage? A.

47、vernment often does business with naming companies.D. It is considered necessary for cars to be named after animals.61. Whats the best title for the passage? A. The Business of Names B. The Development of NamesC. The Rules of Naming Business D. The Methods of Choosing NamesDLove of the SeaMy love af

48、fair with the sea began when I was no more than six years old, walking along the sandy beaches. I always wanted to make the first set of footprints in the wet sand. Unlike many surfers who sought the perfect wave, my interests always lay beneath the seas surface in a world I could only imagine and d

49、ream of. Soon, wearing a snorkel and a mask, I made my first solo adventures in the deep. Perhaps the greatest turning point in my life came when I was in high school and I wrote a letter to the famous Scripps Oceanographic Institution, in San Diego, asking how I might learn more about the sea. A ki

50、nd scientist answered my letter and told me how to apply to Scripps for a summer scholarship, which I received. During one of their cruises that summer, I met Dr. Robert Norris, a marine geologist. He loved the sea almost as much as I did. Soon he was asking me what my plans were and where I expecte

51、d to attend college. I told him I didnt know, so he suggested I consider his school, the University of California in Santa Barbara. Now my love affair with the sea became a serious endeavor. If I wanted to be an undersea explorer, I needed to learn as much as I could about the laws of the physical w

52、orld that controlled the environment I wanted to enter. The undersea world is not our natural world. It is unforgiving to those who make mistakes. At its greatest depths the water temperature is near freezing, the pressure is eight tons per square inch, and it is totally dark. It is easy to get lost

53、 in such a world. I needed to learn a lot about geography, navigation, meteorology, geology, biology, and many other things. While I was in school, I took a little of everything. I decided another important thing for me to do was to join the U.S. Navy. If I was going to be an undersea explorer, I wo

54、uld have to lead men and women on dangerous adventures where they might get hurt, and I didnt want that to happen. In the Navy I learned discipline, organization, and how to motivate and lead people on expeditions so that we could explore the wonders of the deep. Finally, the time came to put all th

55、at I had learned to use, to go forth with a team of men and women and explore an adventure I am still on and hope to be on for many years to come. 62. In Paragraph 5, the writer discusses “the laws of the physical world.”Which of the following is an example of one of the laws? A. Water pressure. B. Various ocean animal life. C. The appearance of the water. D. The different colors of the ocean.63. In college, the writer took many different types of co
