  Geography is the study of the relationship between people and the land. Geographers2 (地理学家) compare and contrast   26   places on the earth. But they also   27   beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a   28  . The word geography   29   from two Greek words: ge,the Greek word for "earth" and graphein,   30 . means "to write". The English word geography means "to describe the earth".   31   geography books focus on a small area   32   a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an   33   continent.

The former focuses on the natural world; the   36    starts with human beings and   37   how human beings and their environment act   38   each other.

  We know, however,   43   no two places are exactly the same. Geography,   44   , is a point of view, a special way of  45   at places.
