However, the team also 1 that the sexes tipped very differentlywith the bigger tips coming only from male customers. No matter what color they wear, female diners will give the same kind of 2 for servic

23、(总题数：0，分数：0.00)十、Section A(总题数：1，分数：35.50)Cattle ranchers (牧场主) have had to sell portions of their herd for lack of water. Sacramento and other municipalities have 1 severe water restrictions. Ski resorts that normally open in December are still closed; at one here in the Sierra Nevada that is open,

24、 a bear 2 onto a slope full of skiers last week, 3 not hibernating (冬眠) because of the warm weather. The water shortage has Californians trying to deal with problems that usually 4 in midsummer. With little snow in the forecast, experts are warning that this drought, after one of the driest years on

25、 record last year, could be as 5 as the severe droughts of the 1970s. Under state law, that would allow the governor to “give up laws or regulations and expedite (加快) some funding,“ said Jeanine Jones, deputy drought manager for the State Department of Water Resources. “It does not create a new larg

26、e pot of money for drought response or make federal funding 6 .“ Signs of drought are everywhere, affecting vast sectors of the economy. A sense of 7 is building among farmers, many whom have already let fields go fallow (休耕的). Without more water, an 8 200000 acres of prime agriculture land will go

27、unplanted in Fresno County, according to Westlands Water District officials. Cattle ranchers 9 to letting cows graze on rain-fed grass have had to rely on bought hay or reduce their herds.

29、1，分数：71.00)Hell on Shoe LeatherA. During the golden weeks of autumn, it seemed as if everyone in the world wanted to go for a walk with William B. Helmreich, including the journalist from Norway, students who have lapped up his courses at City College and the Graduate Centre of the City University o

30、f New York. The publicist at Princeton University Press, which just published “The New York Nobody Knows: Walking 6 000 Miles in the City,“ his detailed account of four years of trekking into every corner of the five boroughs, dead-end streets and desolate (荒凉的) industrial areas included. B. “New Yo

31、rk is so varied,“ said Mr. Helmreich, who has practically made a second career out of explaining so ambitious an undertaking. “But if you don“t walk the streets, you never really understand that. Plus my philosophy is everything“s interesting.“ Mr. Helmreich, who is tall and blue-eyed with close-cro

32、pped gray hair, likes to call himself a flaneur (漫游者), in a tip of the hat to the boulevardiers who strolled the streets of 19th-century Paris. This particular flaneur is 68, the child of parents who immigrated to New York from Switzerland in 1946 and settled in a tenement apartment on the decidedly

33、 Upper West Side. C. Mr. Helmreich“s popularity as a tour guide is hardly surprising, because his 449-page book is a chatty, buoyant and, despite his four decades in academia teaching classes on New York City and sociology, an unstuffy love letter to the delights of street-smart walking. His publish

34、er described the work as “four years plus nine pairs of shoes plus 6 000 miles equals an epic journey,“ and judging by the reactions of people who study the city for a living, the approach has much to recommend it. D. “Too many of the current crop of book-length urban analyses rely on statistics, po

35、licy, and critics of earlier theories of city life,“ said Cassim Shepard, the editor of Urban Omnibus, an online publication of the Architectural League. “Mr. Helmreich“s book should provoke all urban planners worth their salt to leave their desks and get out into the street.“ Fran Leadon, a City Co

36、llege architecture professor who is writing a history of Broadway, agreed. “New York is much more complex than people think,“ Mr. Leadon said. “But nobody knows the whole story because the city is too big and too complicated. So the discussion about New York gets reduced to a few predictable topics:

37、 politics, restaurants, the supposed death of the middle class. That“s the reason Mr. Helmreich“s project is so important.“ E. Mr. Helmreich doesn“t just walk. A gregarious man who seems hard-wired to strike up conversations with strangers, he pokes his head into one storefront after another, engagi

38、ng the occupants in chat. As his wife affectionately summed up his approach. “Bill will talk to a stone. What“s more, the stone will answer.“ A mile-long trek along Ninth Street one recent Friday gave Mr. Helmreich a chance to display his expertise and revisit a few haunts. Then he ducked into World

39、 Class Cleaners, at 66 West Ninth Street. A plaque proclaimed that the business had been honored by the American Academy of Hospitality Sciences. “Good customer service,“ said the woman behind the counter when Mr. Helmreich inquired about the award. F. He asked what it would cost to have a Hermes ti

40、e cleaned, and was told it would set him back $21. Herms might not be Mr. Helmreich“s designer of choice, although he was looking regular this day in chinos and a neat blue and-white-striped Ralph Lauren shirt. Generally, he said, he avoids bright blues and reds that might be read as gang colors, bu

41、t attire provocative in this way is hardly an issue in the tidy West Village. G. At Whiskers Holistic Pet Care, 235 East Ninth Street, where sales clerks remembered Mr. Helmreich from a visit five years ago, he leafed through a binder bulging with handwritten tributes to the store“s remedies and emp

42、loyees. “Phil has rejuvenated my 5-year-old English setter,“ one grateful customer wrote. Once in a while the streetscape offers up flashes of Mr. Helmreich“s personal history, as it did at Mud, a cafe at 307 East Ninth Street. A brother-in-law of Mr. Helmreich“s lived for a time in an apartment in

43、the rear, and a portrait of his bearded face gazed out from a mural (壁画) near the front door. A few steps down, another local boy, named Jimi Hendrix, was memorialized by a sign that urged passers-by to write him letters and place them in an orange mailbox nearby, promising that they“d go “directly

44、to heaven“. H. At Veselka, the Ukrainian restaurant at Second Avenue, Mr. Helmreich took time to trace the roots of his passion for urban walking. His father, who died recently at 101, had been an exceptional walker, helping him to come to know and love the city early on. “I feel at home on any stre

45、et in New York,“ he said. “East New York, South Jamaica, the West Bronx. You name it.“ Over the decades he has walked in cities and countries around the world, even clocking 500 miles in car-obsessed Los Angeles. I. This book, Mr. Helmreich“s 14th, grew out of a suggestion by his department chairman

46、, Philip Kasinitz, and an early plan was to focus on 20 iconic streets, like Myrtle Avenue and Broadway. Then came second thoughts: “I asked myself, what“s iconic in a city of 120 000 blocks?“ So he began walking, his tape recorder and pedometer in a pocket along with little maps annotated like tick

47、-tack-toe games, a line drawn through each street after he completed it. He walked in the heat, in the cold, in the rain, covering at least two miles a day. “People thought I was crazy,“ he said cheerfully. J. And although he had walked the city“s streets many times before, this time he approached t

48、he task systematically, sometimes joined by his wife or by his second most reliable companion, Heidi, who appropriately is part Swiss mountain dog. He also did more than walk. He danced the bachata in a club in the South Bronx. He attended community meetings. He conducted formal interviews with mayo

49、rs past and present. “And I have to admit that I cheated a little,“ Mr. Helmreich said. He skipped 300 miles, mostly in homogeneous residential neighborhoods like Marine Park, Brooklyn. But such lapses (疏忽) were rare, and by the end he had covered 6 048 miles and come away with vivid observations about everything from the transcendent impact of immigration on the city to the clues that a neighborhood was poised for gentrification (旧区发行). K. “In East Williamsburg, for example, you
