Question

阅读理解 　　According to the dictionary definition of“create”, ordinary people are creative every day．“To create”means“to bring into being, to cause to exist something each of us does daily”．We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way．First, this includes an awareness(意识)of our surroundings．It means using all of our senses to become aware of our world．This may be as simple as being aware of color and texture(质地), as well as taste, when we plan a meal．Above all, it is the ability to notice things that others might miss． 　　A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things．If we believe the expression,“There is nothing new under the sun”, then the creativity is remaking or recombining(重组)the old in new ways．For example, we might do this by finding a more effective way to study or a better way to arrange our furniture, or we might make a new combination of camera lenses and filters to create an unusual photograph． 　　A third part of creativity is the courage to make use of our new ideas, to ask for them to achieve some new results．To think up a new idea is one thing; to put the idea to work is another． 　　These three parts of creativity are included in all the great works of geniuses, but they are also included in many of our day-to-day activities． (1) Which of the following activities is NOT a creative one according to the passage? [　　] A． To prepare for a meal． B． To arrange the furniture in a special way． C． To buy some books from a bookstore． D． To“write”a letter with the computer． (2) “There is nothing new under the sun”(para 2)really implies that ________． [　　] A． a new thing can only be created on the basis of earliest things B． a new thing is only a tale C． we can seldom create new things D． we can hardly see really new things in the world (3) What does the author think about the relationship between a new thought and its being put into practice? [　　] A． It's more difficult to create a new thought than to use it in practice． B． To find a new thought will clearly lead to the production of a new thing． C． A man with an excellent ability of practice can easily become an inventor． D． One may come up with a new thought, but may not put it into practice． (4) The best title for this passage is ________． [　　] A． How to Develop One's Creativity B． What Is Creativity C． The Importance of Creativity D． Creativity, a Not Faraway Thing

Answer 1

答案：1．C;2．D;3．D;4．B;
解析：

(1)	推理判断题。从书店买书是非常普通的事，不属于创造范围。A、B两项在文章中有直接提示，D项可以推测出来。
(2)	句意猜测题。由第二段第二句中“then the creativity is remaking or recombining the old in new ways．”可知，创造力是用新方法重组旧的东西，是在早期的基础上创造出新的东西。
(3)	推理判断题。由倒数第二段最后一句“To think up a new idea is one thing; to put the idea to work is another．”可知D项正确。
(4)	主旨大意题。文章主要论述何为创造力，故B项正确。
