【題目】 Can creativity be taught? That’s a question without a simple yes or no answer. Creativity may not be able to be taught directly, but what you can get better at is frequently targeting at the circumstances of life which bring up the greatest chances for true creative expression. 1, but more like something which manifests (顯現(xiàn)) itself inside those who learn to develop it and create the right conditions for it.

Limit your selection of tools to only the most vital. 2. You’ll be sharper than someone who merely fights with a larger set of tools.

Learn how to be resourceful. 3. Creativity is not just about creating something new but making old things work better as well. Think of crazy possibilities as well as practical ones. You might find inspiration for a workable solution in one of your ideas.

Don’t listen to feedback (反饋) and keep following your own path. The problem of asking for feedback is that the feedback will be given according to the person’s past experience. Others will unconsciously push you in a direction that they see as best. 4. Just don’t let criticism even the constructing type destroy your creativity during the creative process.

5. Routines are positive if they strengthen a healthy creative consciousness and negative if they destroy that. The key is to discover a creative routine that puts you in a more creative mindset.

A.Creativity is not like a lightning strike

B.Having a routine is actually not a bad idea

C.You can literally do anything you like with them

D.Resourcefulness is about making the most of what you have to work with

E.The more limited your set of tools is, the more creative the output will be

F.This is done with good intentions, but it actually hurts your natural creativity

G.While breaking your routine once in a while to force new ways of thinking is good

本文為議論文。創(chuàng)造力是被教會的嗎?作者對此做出了分析和解釋,認(rèn)為經(jīng)常處于有創(chuàng)造性的生活環(huán)境中,人的創(chuàng)造力是可以得到更好的激發(fā)的。

1根據(jù)下文but more like something which manifests (顯現(xiàn)) itself inside those who learn to develop it and create the right conditions for it.的轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系可知,創(chuàng)造力不是像閃電突然爆發(fā)的,而是更像是在那些有所準(zhǔn)備的人的內(nèi)心深處顯現(xiàn)出來的東西。故選A 。

2根據(jù)上一句可知,只選擇最重要的工具。本句做出解釋,表明原因:你的工具越有限,產(chǎn)出就會越有創(chuàng)意。故選E

3根據(jù)空格前后句意可知,此處為銜接,對上一句“resourceful”進行解釋,并且引出下文“創(chuàng)造力不僅僅是創(chuàng)造一些新的東西,而是讓舊的東西更好地工作!惫蔬x項D. Resourcefulness is about making the most of what you have to work with.要充分利用你所擁有的一切,符合題意,故選D。

4根據(jù)本段話主題句Dont listen to feedback (反饋) and keep following your own path. 可知,要堅持走自己的路,不要聽從別人的經(jīng)驗之談,別人會無意識地把你推向他們認(rèn)為最好的方向。這樣做是出于好意,但實際上會傷害你的自然創(chuàng)造力。故選F 。

5根據(jù)段落結(jié)構(gòu)可知,此處為主題句。根據(jù)本段論述的中心大意可知,好的習(xí)慣是積極的,要養(yǎng)成能夠讓你的思維更具創(chuàng)造力的好習(xí)慣,所以,形成慣例其實不是一個壞主意,故選B 。

【題目】What are some of your favorite memories of the University?

In preparation for each fall’s 50th reunion members of the milestone class are asked to recall campus memories for an annual Memory Book.

Here’s a small selection of some memories from the Class of 1969.

Phyllis Jo Baunach

“…I cannot forget the endless hours studying, researching, and learning in the middle of the musty books in the stacks. We did everything by hand! But the joys of ideas coming to life and understanding thorny concepts are priceless.

Additionally, I cannot forget the joyful hours of Co-Kast rehearsals for student-written-and-directed plays, and the thrill of audiences’ responses to our efforts. Nor will I ever forget taking voice lessons at the Eastman School of Music. This course gave me confidence to try new musical approaches and to think on my feet.”

Paul Boehm

“…many sweet and lasting memories-five feet of deep snow, getting stranded on the Thruway, music at Hylie Morris’s Alley, and, of course, I met my wife of 48 years, Eller Blazer Boehm from the Class of 1972, when she was a freshman and I was a senior. As a five-year chemical engineering major, I had one elective to spare, and Ellen said, ‘How about oceanography?’ So, I enrolled in oceanography with Dr. Taro Takahashi (the famous climate scientist), which awakened my environmental juices, and changed my professional direction.”

Farel Vella McClure

“…I truly loved my four undergraduate years at the University of Rochester. In fact. I loved it so much that I stayed an extra year to get a master’s degree! I was very fortunate to have been totally immersed in student life on campus. My memories include campaigning and winning a seat on the student government during my freshman year. Other memories include the Susan B. Anthony banquet, and sleeping in the comfy chairs in the library. I was also privileged to be selected as a student representative on the design team for the new Wilson Commons. I. M. Pei, the famous architect who designed the Louvre Pyramid, was the architect for Wilson Commons. We even visited his offices in New York to see the ‘master’ at work.”

1According to the passage, Paul Boehm .

A.married Ellen Blazer in 1972

B.disliked his major in university

C.became a famous climate scientist later

D.discovered his interest in environmental science

2What does the underlined word “comfy” in the last paragraph mean?

A.Common.B.Column.

C.Combining.D.Comfortable.

3The three people all talked about .

A.their beloved professors

B.their great friendship

C.their learning experiences

D.their beautiful campus

I’m writing to tell you something about the discussion on if it is necessary for senior one student to take the one-week military training. Students’ views on it varies from person to person.

Some held that it is necessary. On one hand, it can improve students’ teamwork spirit, who will play an important part in their life and study. On the other hand, it is no doubt that they become stronger physically and mentally through the training.

Besides, the others have opposite views. They think it is waste of time. Meanwhile, students get burnt easy without any protection in the sun.

As far as I’m concerned about, though we may feel tired during the training, it goes without saying that the one-week military training is meaningful.
