12、 first, Michael Surrell didnt see the black smoke or flames shooting from the windows of his neighbors home. Then they got a call from one of his daughters: “The house next door is on fire!” He went over and saw three women crying madly on their porch (门廊). “The babys in the second floor!” one of th
13、e women cried. Though the fire department had been called, Surrell, then 64, bravely ran inside. “The baby” was Tiara Roberts, the womans granddaughter and a playmate of Surrells three youngest kids. Entering the burning house was like “running into a bucket of black paint,” Surrell says. The thick
14、smoke caused him to stumble blindly around, burned his eyes, and made it impossible to breathe. The conditions would have been dangerous for anyone, but for Surrell, who has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(慢性阻塞性肺病), they were life-threatening. Taking a deep breath, he moved around in the overw
15、helming darkness. Because the house had a similar layout to his, he found the stairs and made it to the second floor. Then he heard a soft but clear moan. Still unable to see, Surrell fell to his knees on the hot wood floor. He crawled toward the sound, feeling around for any sign of the girl. Final
16、ly, he touched something. A shoe, then an ankle. He pulled Tiara toward him, scooped her into his arms and stood. Turning, he fought through the smoke and ran blindly into the blackness Surrell woke up in the hospital a couple of days later and spent over a week in the hospital. Tiara was released f
17、rom the hospital after a few days. The fire worsened Surrells pulmonary condition, and he feels the effects even two years later. As a result, he takes extra medication that helps open his airways. “Its a small price to pay,” he says. “Id do it again in a heartbeat. I wouldnt give it a second though

20、lfless. D. Determined and ambitious. B After years of trying, our neighbors convinced my parents that ice fishing would be a fun winter getaway from our dairy farm. Before that, their idea of entertainment involved driving around the countryside to see how the neighbors crops were doing. My parents
21、eventually built a fish house and set it up on Wood Lake. We excitedly headed for the lake on many January and February weekends. By the time we arrived at our favorite fishing spot across the lake each day, somebody had usually made a clear path across the ice. The fish houses were together at the
22、best fishing spots, forming some kind of a neighborhood. Our house was large enough so all four of us could fish at the same time. Each corner had a square cut out of the floor. We sat in comfort. Youd think ice fishing would be cold, but we had a small woodstove (木炉) inside, and we put snow around
23、the bottom of the house to keep the wind from blowing underneath. Besides the thrill of watching your bobber (钓鱼浮标) dip below the water, lunch was always the highlight of the day. Mom would fry pork or hamburgers in a pan. The smell of cooking meat was the envy of every other fish house in the neigh
24、borhood. Our days passed with a mix of quiet time and family chatter. We talked about the farm or school. And of course, we shared fishing advice. Part of the fun of ice fishing was learning to understand and trust the sounds of the frozen lake. Healthy ice “talks” as it freezes and shifts. You coul
25、d often hear the sound of a crack traveling through the ice. People who have never tried ice fishing may not think it sounds very exciting, but it was for us. Fishing trips were an adventure. We didnt always catch fish, but we always brought home great memories of a day with family and friends. 24.

Tell me: How many different ways can I put a pair of pants to use? Now imagine youre Lady Gaga. Bill Gates. A scuba div
29、er. An architect. You still have the pants. What other uses come to mind? What you just practicedthe conscious act of “wearing” another selfis an exercise that, according to psychiatrist Srini Pillay, MD, is essential to being creative. One problem about our understanding of creativity is that we te
30、nd to connect it to our concept of self: Either were “creative” or we arent, without much of a middle ground. “Im just not a creative person!” a frustrated student might say in art class. Dr. Pillay, an assistant professor at Harvard University, has spent a good part of his career challenging these
31、ideas. He believes that the key to unlocking your creative potential is to reject the old advice that urges you to “believe in yourself.” In fact, you should do the opposite: Believe you are someone else. Dr. Pillay points to a 2016 study where the authors educational psychologists Denis Dumas and K
32、evin Dunbar-divided their college-student subjects into three groups, instructing one group to think of themselves as “poets” and another to imagine they were “librarians” (the third group was the control). The researchers then presented all the participants with ten ordinary objects, including a fo
33、rk, a carrot, and a pair of pants, and asked them to come up with as many different uses as possible for each one. Those who were asked to imagine themselves as poets came up with the widest range of ideas, whereas those in the librarian group had the fewest. Meanwhile, the researchers found only sm
34、all differences in students creativity levels across academic majors. In fact, the physics majors pretending to be poets came up with more ideas than the art majors did. These results, write Dumas and Dunbar, suggest that creativity is not an individual trait but a “product of context and perspectiv

Critical. 28. Why does the author mention the physics majors had more ideas than the art majors in the exper
36、iment? A. To prove that physics can help develop creativity. B. To emphasize that creativity had little to do with majors. C. To show that poets are really more imaginative than librarians. D. To imply that physics majors are more creative than art majors. 29. Regarding creativity, which of the foll
37、owing statements will the author most likely agree with? A. I am born to be uncreative. B. I shall become creative when I grow up. C. I have to learn poetry to be creative. D.

39、ane crops. 31 Experts estimate that there are currently over 200 million samples spread across Northern Australia, and the numbers are only growing. The increasing population is proving to be deadly for many native Australian animal species that hunt the toads as food. 32 While some animals have lea
40、rned to completely avoid the frogs, the Australian monitor lizards continue to be killed by them. The lizards that catch small animals love eating cane toads. 33 It takes the cane toad less than 30 seconds to release enough poison to kill a lizard. 34 They decided to train the lizards to avoid the c
41、ane toads. To carry out the idea they went to a region of northwestern Australia that had not yet been invaded by cane toads and fed the wild lizards with young cane toads. Though the smaller animals release the same poison as the adults, they do so in smaller amounts. 35 The researchers say it took
42、 just one or two tests to teach the lizards to stay away from cane toads. They continued to avoid the animals even when the larger cane toads arrived. A. Not surprisingly, their population has dropped sharply. B. Unfortunately, in most cases, it turns out to be their last meal. C. With very few natu
43、ral enemies, their population began to grow rapidly. D. Now a team of researchers came up with a good plan to save the lizards. E. Gradually, the lizards learned to eat only the mildly poisonous cane toads. F. Therefore, while the poison does make the lizards sick, it does not kill them. G. Thats be
