【题目】 Can creativity be taught? That’s a question without a simple yes or no answer. Creativity may not be able to be taught directly, but what you can get better at is frequently targeting at the circumstances of life which bring up the greatest chances for true creative expression. 【1】, but more like something which manifests （显现） itself inside those who learn to develop it and create the right conditions for it.

Limit your selection of tools to only the most vital. 【2】. You’ll be sharper than someone who merely fights with a larger set of tools.

Learn how to be resourceful. 【3】. Creativity is not just about creating something new but making old things work better as well. Think of crazy possibilities as well as practical ones. You might find inspiration for a workable solution in one of your ideas.

Don’t listen to feedback （反馈） and keep following your own path. The problem of asking for feedback is that the feedback will be given according to the person’s past experience. Others will unconsciously push you in a direction that they see as best. 【4】. Just don’t let criticism （even the constructing type） destroy your creativity during the creative process.

【5】. Routines are positive if they strengthen a healthy creative consciousness and negative if they destroy that. The key is to discover a creative routine that puts you in a more creative mindset.

A.Creativity is not like a lightning strike

B.Having a routine is actually not a bad idea

C.You can literally do anything you like with them

D.Resourcefulness is about making the most of what you have to work with

E.The more limited your set of tools is, the more creative the output will be

F.This is done with good intentions, but it actually hurts your natural creativity

G.While breaking your routine once in a while to force new ways of thinking is good

【答案】

【1】A

【2】E

【3】D

【4】F

【5】B

【解析】

本文为议论文。创造力是被教会的吗？作者对此做出了分析和解释，认为经常处于有创造性的生活环境中，人的创造力是可以得到更好的激发的。

【1】根据下文but more like something which manifests （显现） itself inside those who learn to develop it and create the right conditions for it.的转折关系可知，创造力不是像闪电突然爆发的，而是更像是在那些有所准备的人的内心深处显现出来的东西。故选A 。

【2】根据上一句可知，只选择最重要的工具。本句做出解释，表明原因：你的工具越有限，产出就会越有创意。故选E。

【3】根据空格前后句意可知，此处为衔接，对上一句“resourceful”进行解释，并且引出下文“创造力不仅仅是创造一些新的东西，而是让旧的东西更好地工作。”故选项D. Resourcefulness is about making the most of what you have to work with.要充分利用你所拥有的一切，符合题意，故选D。

【4】根据本段话主题句Don’t listen to feedback （反馈） and keep following your own path. 可知，要坚持走自己的路，不要听从别人的经验之谈，别人会无意识地把你推向他们认为最好的方向。这样做是出于好意，但实际上会伤害你的自然创造力。故选F 。

【5】根据段落结构可知，此处为主题句。根据本段论述的中心大意可知，好的习惯是积极的，要养成能够让你的思维更具创造力的好习惯，所以，形成惯例其实不是一个坏主意，故选B 。

【题目】What are some of your favorite memories of the University?

In preparation for each fall’s 50th reunion members of the milestone class are asked to recall campus memories for an annual Memory Book.

Here’s a small selection of some memories from the Class of 1969.

Phyllis Jo Baunach

“…I cannot forget the endless hours studying, researching, and learning in the middle of the musty books in the stacks. We did everything by hand! But the joys of ideas coming to life and understanding thorny concepts are priceless.

Additionally, I cannot forget the joyful hours of Co-Kast rehearsals for student-written-and-directed plays, and the thrill of audiences’ responses to our efforts. Nor will I ever forget taking voice lessons at the Eastman School of Music. This course gave me confidence to try new musical approaches and to think on my feet.”

Paul Boehm

“…many sweet and lasting memories-five feet of deep snow, getting stranded on the Thruway, music at Hylie Morris’s Alley, and, of course, I met my wife of 48 years, Eller Blazer Boehm from the Class of 1972, when she was a freshman and I was a senior. As a five-year chemical engineering major, I had one elective to spare, and Ellen said, ‘How about oceanography?’ So, I enrolled in oceanography with Dr. Taro Takahashi (the famous climate scientist), which awakened my environmental juices, and changed my professional direction.”

Farel Vella McClure

“…I truly loved my four undergraduate years at the University of Rochester. In fact. I loved it so much that I stayed an extra year to get a master’s degree! I was very fortunate to have been totally immersed in student life on campus. My memories include campaigning and winning a seat on the student government during my freshman year. Other memories include the Susan B. Anthony banquet, and sleeping in the comfy chairs in the library. I was also privileged to be selected as a student representative on the design team for the new Wilson Commons. I. M. Pei, the famous architect who designed the Louvre Pyramid, was the architect for Wilson Commons. We even visited his offices in New York to see the ‘master’ at work.”

【1】According to the passage, Paul Boehm .

A.married Ellen Blazer in 1972

B.disliked his major in university

C.became a famous climate scientist later

D.discovered his interest in environmental science

【2】What does the underlined word “comfy” in the last paragraph mean?

A.Common.B.Column.

C.Combining.D.Comfortable.

【3】The three people all talked about .

A.their beloved professors

B.their great friendship

C.their learning experiences

I’m writing to tell you something about the discussion on if it is necessary for senior one student to take the one-week military training. Students’ views on it varies from person to person.

Some held that it is necessary. On one hand, it can improve students’ teamwork spirit, who will play an important part in their life and study. On the other hand, it is no doubt that they become stronger physically and mentally through the training.

Besides, the others have opposite views. They think it is waste of time. Meanwhile, students get burnt easy without any protection in the sun.

As far as I’m concerned about, though we may feel tired during the training, it goes without saying that the one-week military training is meaningful.

So how does the T-shirt address the problem? On it 【5】 (be) nearly 40 easily recognizable symbols, representing common concepts travelers can use to express 【6】 ( they) wherever they are in the world.

In 2013 when co-founder George Horn and his friends were riding motorbikes through Vietnam, one motorbike【7】 (break) down. In search of assistance, they ended up in a village where no one could understand them.【8】drawing out images and symbols on pieces of paper, they could somehow explain their situation.

The study has also showed that although black and green teas have antioxidants（抗氧化剂）【8】 can help reduce cancer risk, there are other unknown compounds（化合物）in the teas that may have a harmful effect on your body when they 【9】（make）too hot. Before drinking hot teas, 【10】 is wise to wait until they cool down.
