2.The paper is written in an attempt to discuss what the creative process is.Though much theory has accumulated,little is really known about the power that lies at the bottom of poetic creation.It is true that great poets and artists produce beauty by employing all the powers of personality and by combing emotions,reason,and intuitions(直觉).But what is the magical synthesis(合成) that joins and arranges these complex parts into poetic unity?
John L.Lowes,in his justly famous"The Road to Xanadu,"developed one of the earliest and still generally acceptable answers to this interesting question.Imaginative creation.He concludes,is a complex process in which the conscious and unconscious minds jointly operate."there is ….the deep well with its chaos(杂乱) of accidently mixing images,but there is likewise the vision which sees shining in and through the chaos of the potential lines of form,and with the vision,the controlling will,which gives to that potential beauty actuality."
The deep well is the unconscious mind that is peopled with the facts,ideas,feelings of the conscious activity.The imaginative vision,an unconscious activity,shines through the land of chaos,of lights and shadows,silently seeking pattern and form.Finally,the conscious mind again,through will,captures and embodies the idea in the final work of art.In this way is unity born out of chaos.
Though there can be no absolute certainty,there is general agreement  that the periods in the development of a creative work parallel(与….相似),to some extent,Lowes's theory of well,vision,form and will.There are at least three stages in the creative process:preparation,inspiration,work.
In a sense,the period of preparation is all of the writer's life.It is the deep well.It is especially a period of concentration which gives the unconscious mind an opportunity to communicate with the conscious mind.When remembrance of things past reaches the conscious level of the writer's mind,he is ready to go on with the process.Part of this preparation involves learning a medium---learning a language,learning how to write,learning literary forms.It is important to note here that form cannot be imposed upon the idea.Evidence,though not enough,shows that the idea gives birth to the form that can best convey it.It is the vision,according to Lowes,that sees shining in and through the chaos of the potential lines of form.

78.John L.Lowes has provided an acceptable answer to the question ofwhatthecreativeprocessis.
79.Well,vision,formandwillare the four elements of John L.Lowes'theoryofwell,vision,form.andwill.
80.How does the preparation stage contribute to the development of a creative workTheunconsciousmindcommunicateswiththeconsciousmind(inthisstage)..?
81.According to the passage,what is the relationship between the idea and formTheideagivesbirthtotheform/Theideaissuperiortotheform.

分析 本文讨论的是诗歌创作的过程.文章采用了层层递进的结构,讨论了诗歌的创作过程究竟是怎么样的.第一部分阐述了长期以来被人们所接受的诗歌创作理论,重点介绍了诗歌创作的四要素--Well,vision,form.and will;第二部分讨论了在诗歌创作过程的三个阶段(preparation,inspiration,work)中,四要素之间是如何合作,最终完成一首歌.

解答 78.答案:what the creative process is.根据题干关键词"John L.Lowes"和"an acceptable answer"定位到原文第二段第一句,原文中答案为"this interesting question",然后再结合全文主旨句(第一段第一句an attempt to discuss what the creative process is.),故答案为what the creative process is.
79.答案:Well,vision,form and will.根据题干"four elements of John L.Lowes'theory"定位到原文第四段第一句结尾,Lowes's theory of well,vision,form.and will,照抄即可.故答案为Well,vision,form and will.
80.答案:The unconscious mind communicates with the conscious mind (in this stage)..先根据题干关键词"the preparation stage",定位到最后一段第三句It is especially a period of concentration which gives the unconscious mind an opportunity to communicate with the conscious mind,其次对于特殊疑问词"how",我们应该用"by doing …"结构或者直接用一个句子来回答,要特别注意表达结构及语法的正确性.
81.答案:The idea gives birth to the form/The idea is superior to the form.根据题干关键词"the relationship between the idea and form"定位到原文最后一段的倒数第二句,"Evidence,though not enough,shows that the idea gives birth to the form.that can best convey it",照抄即可.

点评 本文考察学生文学类阅读文章的阅读水平,阅读这类文章时,也应该在整体把握文章结构的前提下,主要注意细节信息.细节题题干都是相应原文的变形(如同义改写、词性转换等),因此要找到答案一定要找到题干在原文中的出处,再把原文和选项相比较.做题时,根据所提问题用寻读、跳读的方法可达到事半功倍的效果

2.Sebastian Faulks has written many novels,including Devil May Care,the latest James Bond book.This cutting comes from a very different kind of novel called Charlotte Gray.The setting is a transit (中转) camp near Paris during the Second World War,where a group of people,including two small children,Andre and Jacob,await transport to take them to a concentration camp outside France.Although these people-the‘deportees'of the cutting-are not fully aware of this,they face certain death.
The Last Night
Andre was lying on the floor when a man came with postcards on which the deportees might write a final message.He advised them to leave them at the station or throw them from the train as camp orders forbade access to the post.Two or three pencils that had survived the camps search were passed round among the people in the room.Some wrote with weeping passion,some with great care,as though their safety,or at least the way in which they were remembered,depended upon their choice of words.
A woman came with a sandwich for each child to take on the journey.She also had a bucket of water,round which they gathered,holding out food cans they passed from one to another.One of the older boys hugged her in his gratitude,but the bucket was soon empty.When she was gone,there were only the small hours of the night to go through.Andre was lying on the straw,and Jacob leaned close to him for warmth.
Five buses had come in through the main entrance,and now stood trembling in the corner of the yard.At a long table …the commandant of the camp himself sat with a list of names that another policeman was calling out in alphabetical order.Andre heard his name and moved with Jacob towards the bus.From the other side of the courtyard,from windows open on the dawn,a shower of food was thrown towards them by women crying and calling out their names.
Andre looked up,and in a chance angle of light he saw a woman's face in which the eyes were fixed with terrible fierceness on a child beside him.Why did she stare as though she hated him?Then it came to Andre that she was not looking in hatred,but had kept her eyes so intensely open in order to fix the picture of her child in her mind.She was looking to remember,for ever.…

7.It was my first day back home since starting college.A lot had changed in the last year.Not with my hometown but with me.I had left as a 17-year-old boy and had now returned as an 18-year-old man.In the city,I was living on my own,had a part-time job and was studying.Even the government recognized I was an adult; I had a driver's license.So here I was,on my summer vacation,walking down the main street with my father,desperate for him to acknowledge how mature I was.When his recognition failed to appear,I took matters into my own hands."Dad,"I said casually,"I'm thirsty.Let's go for a beer."It was the first time I'd ever mentioned beer in front of my father,let alone ask him to drink one with me.
He turned to me with a curious expression on his face."A beer?Well I guess you're old enough now.Let's go to Sailors'Bar.It's where my cousin Tom,your uncle,used to drink.You remember him,right?"
I had only some vague recollection of my uncle.He was the black sheep of the family---always in trouble.We didn't talk about him much."What ever happened to Uncle Tom,Dad?I haven't seen him in years,"I said as we continued towards the bar.
"Neither have I,unfortunately.He was a good kid once.But things changed,"my father said mournfully.As a boy,he explained,there had been no better-behaved boy than Tom.But after leaving school,he moved to the city and fell in with bad company.He started going out every night,drinking in nightclubs and playing cards.Soon he lost everything and had to beg his mum to pay his debts.She agreed on the condition he returned home.
My dad took a deep breath and continued his tale."Things settled down for a while.He married a lovely woman,gave up his bad habits.But it didn't last.He was soon back to his old ways.He couldn't resist.He was at Sailors'Bar almost every night.His poor mother died of grief and shame.His wife followed her soon after.
"What ruined him was alcohol.He told me once,when a man begins drinking,he never knows where it'll end.‘So',Tom warned me,‘beware of your first drink!'
"He went from bad to worse.Last year Tom sent me a letter saying he had been found guilty of stealing,and sent to prison for ten years."
Dad finished talking just as we reached the front of Sailors'Bar."Anyway,here we are.Let's go in,"he said.But I understood.I put my arm around my father and said,"I'm not thirsty anymore,Dad.Let's go home."

14.I have been overweight my entire life.I was born with a bone deformity (崎形) in my legs.From an early age I was limited on the type of activity I could do because I was in so much pain.I was freed from gym in school growing up.I became lazy and accepted the fact th at I would always be overweight.I didn't believe in myself.I overate all the time.I would eat lots of sweets,processed foods,chips and fast foods.I reached my heaviest of 287 pounds and a size 24 jeans and XXXL shirts.
In December 2013,my family and I went on a trip to Disneyland.We walked 10 miles each day we were there.To my surprise,I did not have any pain.I suddenly realized something.I knew from that point I needed to get moving to ease my pain and lose the weight.I had walked before but never to that extent.I knew I had to push past the pain and the weight would come off.
I was invited to train with a friend,and at first I couldn't make up my mind to go.I was tired of being in pain.After two weeks,I knew that I had to start somewhere.I took my friend up on her invitation and began working out to lots of physical programs.I began eating non-processed foods.I ate lots of fruits and vegetables.I lost 92 pounds in a year.Now I rarely eat out.I would rather cook my meals from the very beginning so I know what is in them.I do allow myself a good meal once a week.By allowing myself the good meal,I keep away from overeating.
I believe in myself now.I am a better mother to my three boys.I feel stronger.I am a happier person all around.I have even registered for my very first 5K walk/run.I have a newfound love for life and want to inspire others to believe in themselves,so last October I became a BeachBody coach to help others in their fitness journeys.I have always enjoyed helping others,and now I want to be able to help people change their lives.
