Here is how schools and parents can encourage this important skill in children.If Dick Drew had listened to his boss in 1925, we might not have an important product: a new
22、type of tape. Drew worked for the Minnesota Mining Company. At work he developed a kind of material strong enough to hold things together. But his boss told him not to think more about the idea. Finally, using his own time, Drew improved the tape, which now is used everywhere by many people. And his
23、 old company learned from its mistake. Now it encourages people to spend 15 percent of their work time just thinking and developing new ideas.Creativity is not something one is just born with, nor is it necessarily a character of high intelligence (智慧). Just because a person is highly intelligent do
24、es not mean that he uses it creatively. Creativity is the matter of using the resources one has to produce new ideas that are good for something.Unluckily, schools have not tried to encourage creativity. With strong attention to test results and the development of reading, writing and mathematical s
25、kills, many educators give up creativity for correct answers. The result is that children can give back information but cant recognize ways to use it in new situations. They may know the rules correctly, but they are unable to use them to work out practical problems.It is important to give children
26、choices. From the earliest age, children should be allowed to make decisions and understand their results. Even if its choosing between two kinds of food for lunch, decision-making helps thinking skills. As children grow older, parents should let their children decide how to use their time or spend
27、their money, but not help them too much if they make the wrong decision. The child may have a hard time, but that is all right. This is because the most important character of creative people is a very strong desire (欲望) to find a way out of trouble.1What did the company where Dick Drew work learn f
28、rom its mistake?AThey encouraged people to work a longer time.BThey discouraged (阻碍) people to think freely.CThey asked people to spend all their work time developing new ideas.DThey encouraged people to spend some of their work time thinking and improving new ideas.2Why dont schools try to encourag
29、e creativity?AThey dont understand the importance of education.BThey dont want their students to make mistakes.CThey pay too much attention to examination marks and language skills.DThey think it more important to remember some information.3What should the parents do when their children decide how t
30、o spend their money?ATry to help them as much as possibleBTake no notice of whatever they doCHelp them if their decision is wrong, but not too muchDLeave them as they are4The best title for the passage can be _.AThe importance of creativityBWhat is creativity?CThe history of creativityDHow can we de
31、velop creativity?C15、 March 16 is International Sleep Day. And we should all celebrate the act of sleeping. Researchers say sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning. But what about getting rest during the middle of the day? A recent study on napping(小睡) says short periods of s
32、leep may help our brains work better. Past studies have shown that napping can help babies and young children learn better. And napping can help brain performance in older adults. Taking a nap may also help this group of people fight off memory loss because of the increase in their age.Many American
33、s do nap. But one-third of all adults in the United States are also chronically(长期的) tired, says the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It found that 50 million to 70 million Americans have chronic sleep disorders. However, they seem to be unwilling to tell people that they take
34、a nap. They may think that napping shows they are weak or they dont have enough energy. It is not an uncommon opinion that only children, the very old, sick or lazy people nap. In fact, Americans sometimes do a very strange thing. Some people brag about how few hours of sleep they need each night to
35、 show that they are somehow stronger than the average humansuperhuman, if you will. However, that may be changing. Many offices now offer napping rooms and napping cafes(咖啡馆) are appearing in many U.S. cities, including Washington, DCRemember that an hour long nap may be too long for young, healthy
36、adults. It is recommended that 30 minutes is enough to remove the pressure(压力) to sleep and will help people feel more awake. If people nap longer, they will get trapped into deep sleep, which can be hard to get out of. If you have trouble falling asleep at night, limit your daytime nap to under 45
37、minutes. Also nap before 3 p.m.1Who are this group of people in Paragraph 2?AThe babies.BThe children.CThe older adults.DThe young people.2The underlined word brag in Paragraph 3 means _.Achat sadlyBtalk proudlyCwhisper secretlyDspeak politely3What may Americans think of napping in the future?AHealt
38、hy adults neednt take a nap.BThey wont tell others about their nap.CIt may be common for Americans to take a nap.DOnly the old, the sick and children need a nap.4For a young man with sleep problems, it is good to _.Atake a 40-minute-long noon napBtake a nap whenever he feels sleepyCtake an one-hour-
39、long nap after dinnerDtake a 30-minute-long nap in the eveningD16、Whats the best way to remember our happiest moments, like a birthday or festival? I bet you would answer , “Take lots of photos!” Well, here is a great surprise. People who always take photos may actually be harming(伤害) their memory,
40、because theyre not concentrating on the event itself. Thats according to new research by Fairfield University, Connecticut, in the US. They call this the “photo-taking impairment(损害) affect”.“People so often take out their cameras almost mindlessly to catch a moment, to the point that they are missi
41、ng what is happening right in front of them,” Henkel and her team decided to perform an experiment. They wanted to find out whether taking photos in a museum weakened(减弱) a visitors memory of what they had seen. So they simply told a group to look around the museum, and either take photos of the ite
42、ms on display, or try to remember what they had seen. In addition(另外), the amount(数量) of detail(细节) they remembered was worse than those who didnt take photos. “These results show how the minds eye and the cameras eye are not the same,” said Henkel.But dont put your camera down just yet. Other studi
43、es have found that looking back at old photos helps us remember an event, compared to just taking a photo and forgetting about it. So next time youre thinking of taking a photo, just think: is it better to look at the beauty around you with your own eyes, or behind the eye of the camera?1（小题1）When w
44、e take photos, we _.Afail to focus on the event itselfBcant record the detailsCremember what we have seenDare likely to have a poor memory2（小题2）Which of the following is NOT true about the experiment?APeople who didnt take photos did better in the experiment.BThey asked a group to try to remember wh
