20.In a recently published book,I came across some exercises with interesting names such as fishbone diagrams,lotus flowers,and clustering.As I used these exercises in my classes,I noticed that students were interested They said more and wrote more.They enjoyed expressing their ideas and sharing them in groups.They were no longer passively waiting for the bell,but actively took part in the lesson.I find that creativity (创新)can act as a way to increase participation and improve fluency (流利程度).
Creativity has become a popular word in recent years.Scholar in the arts,psychology (心理学),businesseducation,and science are all working to get a deeper understanding of it.Robert J.Sternberg is a creativity specialist and Yale professor of psychology.He defines creativity as"the ability to produce work that is both new (original) and appropriate (applicable to the situation)".This definition is useful,as we want our students to use language in a new way,and to use it correctly and properly.Most scholars say there are two types of creativity:big"C"creativity and small"c"creativity.Big"C"creativity refers to genius level thinking that results in artistic masterpieces and scientific breakthroughs.Small"c"creativity refers to everyday level thinking that can be used in any situation.Our emphasis is on the latter.While it goes without saying that any of our students could go on to be the next Picasso or Edison,our aim is to help students produce more ideas and use language in new ways.

A.longing for a phone call

17.As the labor market becomes more attractive,more companies are sending their employees to school.Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is the latest company to use tuition assistance for employees-which for decades has been a part of many business'benefits packages-as part of a renewed effort to bring in and cultivate talent.And while the impact of such programs has yet to be fully assessed,many see it as a positive-although gradual-movement.
"For workers,it gives them a better opportunity for development,"says Colleen Flaherty Manchester,a professor."For firms,they are able to recruit the type of employees who have value education and are less likely to turn over,and thus have a higher level of retention(保留)."
In all,56percent of US organizations offer undergraduate educational assistance while 52percent offer graduate assistance.
Largely driving the trend are Millennials,who happen to be the fastest-growing people in the US workforce today and to whom the idea of tuition support from employers is especially appealing.Nearly 60percent of Millennials surveyed said they would choose a job with strong professional-development potential over one with regular pay raises.Employers are absolutely adapting to Millennials in the workplace.They recognize that they need more experience,more knowledge,more mentoring to be successful.And they're asking for it.
Of more than 140,000Starbucks employees,only about 4,000have signed up for the company's College Achievement Plan.What the long-term effects such programs might have for companies'retention and turnover rates remain unclear.But,the pluses of these programs are more important than the minuses.We're going to see a lot more of this in the future.
32.Using tuition assistance for employeesB.
A.has attracted a large number of talents
B.is a trend that formed recently
C.has existed for scores of years
D.is well received by employees
33.What can we learn from what Colleen Flaherty said?B

B.It is a win-win event for employees and employers.
C.Valuing education has become a trend for all companies.
D.It turns out to be tough for firms to find suitable employees.
34.What does the underlined word"it"in Paragraph 4refer to?B
A.Regular pay raises.
B.More chances to be successful.
C.Educational support.
D.Professional-development potential.
35.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the programs?B
A.The programs can guarantee the employees a good job.
B.The impact of the programs remains to be estimated.
C.Employees will benefit more from the programs than companies.
D.It's less likely that employees will remain in the same company after receiving the programs.
18.It's high time someone spoke up for today's college students.They're probably the most hardworking,ambitious people in America and their problems are not properly appreciated.
People like the Secretary of Education simply don't know what they're talking about when they knock students.Nor do those who complain about falling academic standards.
The vast majority of the nation's 12million students are struggling to pay for their educations.They are part of the invisible workforce.Many hold down full-time jobs.They're frying hamburgers,photographing weddings,working in construction,and waiting on tables.The fact that they even show up for classes is a wonderful event.
The financial situation of most students explains a lot about what is happening in schools.Why are the traditional courses so unpopular?Why are students flocking to accounting and computer science and any professional programs that seem to lead to careers?
Answer:Today's working student has been forced into a kind of premature matter-of-fact way of viewing things.Romance is gone.The notion of transforming one's self through study alone has disappeared.Today's students seek freedom from manual labor,and the status conferred by a good job.
There are other consequences.Today's students don't have much time or energy to be devoted,and carry out independent research or even do serious homework.That's the secret behind falling academic standards.Students have become consumers.They want grades and certifications.Their professors can't be expected to give a grade of failure to students who are clearly tired from the effort to pay their bills.
There's a lot wrong with this situation.It's twisting the definition of education out of shape.Worse,it's creating a generation that is totally unpleasant.The brightest students turn out to be yuppies (雅皮士).The vast majority are,at least,good-natured semi-literates.
The time has run out for philosophical debates about fixed courses of study.What this country needs is someone to stand up and say that being a full-time student during one's formative years is an honorable calling worthy of support.If families can't or won't give it to their children,then the government should.
66.The author's purpose in writing this article is toA.

D.provide a suggestion that only full-time students be enrolled
