When you imagine a new way of doing something and then find a way to do it, you are being creative. Generally, there are three steps to being creative. They are:

Step 1 Gaining knowledge and skills of how things are done

A solid knowledge and skills help you understand how to do something. Knowing when and how to apply this knowledge comes from studying how others have done things in the same situations. Think about learning to play the piano. In this step you learn how to read music and_______ the keys are on the piano. You also practise playing.

Step 2 Learning to_______ the way that people do those things

Practising how others do something will bring what you have learned and the practice of it together. Repeating other people’s skills will create a lot of _________ and increase understanding. So your next step in playing the piano would be seeing how other good musicians play, and repeating their songs and styles of playing.

Step 3 Exploring new and maybe better ways of doing them

Knowing the rules, but then using or breaking them in your_______ style is the basis of creativity. At this point in playing the piano, you might play songs in new ways; or even write songs and melodies (曲調(diào)). Being able to explore and improve on ideas requires time and effort to find out different ways of doing something.

Being creative is the useful ability to help solve problems effectively in many different situations. Being creative will often result in lots of ideas,_______ not all of them will be good ideas. That is why being creative is a process of trying - and trying again! Being able to come up with new ideas, and then_______ the better ideas, will make your life more successful. So start being creative today!

Wind power is a very clean source of energy. This is how wind power works. Wind makes windmills spin (旋轉(zhuǎn)).When the windmills spin, they make electricity. Then we can use the electricity.

A lot of people think that wind power is new, but that's not true. For thousands of years, people have used wind to sail boats and move water. We still do those things today, but these days we mostly use wind power to make electricity.

Wind power is a very popular source of energy. Most people think that we should use it more and more. First of all, it's clean. Windmills don't pollute the environment at all. Second, we can use wind power forever. After all, we will always have wind. Also, wind power is cheap, and it's getting even cheaper.

A lot of people don't understand wind power very well. They believe that there are problems with wind power, but many of those problems are not real. For example, some people say that windmills are dangerous for birds. They used to be true, but it isn't true anymore. Old windmills killed birds because they spun very fast. New windmills spin slowly, and they aren't dangerous for birds.

However, there are real problems with windmills. One problem is that many people think windmills are very ugly. This is a problem for people, because windmills are often in very pretty areas. Also, wind doesn't blow all the time, so we can't use wind power all the time. Finally, windmills are noisy.

Wind power is becoming more and more common. Right now, more than 80 countries use wind power. About 2.5 percent of the world's power comes from the wind. For some countries, that number is a lot higher. Wind power gives Denmark more than 25 percent of its electricity.

1.Why DON'T new windmills kill birds? Because ________.

A.birds don't fly near them B.they are shorter than old windmills

C.they spin slowly D.new windmills don't spin

2.When did people start using wind power?

A.Over 1,000 years ago. B.About 500 years ago.

C.About 80 years ago. D.About 25 years ago.

3.________, so we CAN'T use wind power all the time.

A.We can't use windmills at night B.Windmills break all the time

C.Wind doesn't blow all the time D.Windmills are too expensive to use all the time

4.What does the passage say about wind power?

A.Most people don't like it. B.Denmark doesn't use it.

C.It's getting more expensive. D.It's getting cheaper.

A.Dangerous Birds B.Popular and Clean Wind Power
