C

The day before the deadline for this article,I had no clue what I was going to write about. I took my problem to the editor-in-chief, and.he said to me:“Don’t worry; you’re creative. ”

I’m not sure where the editor-in-chief reached the conclusion that I was “creative”. Maybe it was through the poems I wrote. Personally, I simply enjoy writing because it’s fun. There’s also the fact that I can’t draw or do anything else creatively, I’m equally sure that there are people in the boat on the other side who can make things look excellent, but can’t write a poem.

At this point you probably want to ask me what poetry and art have to do with engineering.  For one, it makes you a more rounded person, making you a better engineer. More importantly, as an engineer, you will be faced with many problems every day. There are some that can be solved by consulting a textbook, but more often than not, you will need that thing in your brain to put together things in a completely original combination to solve the problem at hand.

Think of the wonderful things that creative engineers have done. Civil engineers have made the road more long-lasting so we don’t have to close them for repairs as often. Coming up with a new innovation (创新) is similar to writing a good poem. It’s not some-thing you plan to do. The critical moment comes unexpectedly in the middle of nowhere. You don’t think about what you’re doing, you simply do. After some mad struggling you take a look at the end product and say to yourself, “This is a masterpiece. ” This is perhaps the greatest personal satisfaction one can

experience.

So all you engineers out there get out and do something creative. I don’t care if it’s writing a poem or a computer program, just be natural and do something creative.

Twenty-first century humanity has mapped oceans and mountains, visited the moon, and surveyed the planets.But for all the progress, people still don’t know one another very well.

That brings about Theodore Zeldin’s “feast of conversation”-events where individuals pair with persons they don’t know for three hours of guided talk designed to get the past “Where are you from?”

Mr.Zeldin, an Oxford University professor, heads Oxford Muse, a 10-year-old foundation based on the idea that what people need is not more information, but more inspiration and encouragement.

The “feast” in London looks not at politics or events, but at how people have felt about work, relations among the sexes, hopes and fears, enemies and authority, the shape of their lives.The “menu of conversation” includes topics like “How have your priorities changed over the years?” Or, “What have you rebelled against the past?”

As participants gathered, Zeldin opened with a speech: that despite instant communications in a globalized age, issues of human heart remain.Many people are lonely, or in routines that discourage knowing the depth of one another.“We are trapped in shallow conversations and the whole point now is to think, which is sometimes painful,” he says.“But thinking interaction is what separates us from other species, except maybe dogs…who do have generations of human interactions.”

The main rules of the “feast”: Don’t pair with someone you know or ask questions you would not answer.The only awkward moment came when the multi-racial crowd of young adults to seniors, in sun hats, ties and dresses, looked to see whom with for hours.But 15 minutes later, everyone was seated and talking, continuing full force until organizers interrupted them 180 minutes later.

“It’s encouraging to see the world is not just a place of oppression and distance from each other,” Zeldin summed up.“What we did is not ordinary, but it can’t be madder than the world already is.”

Some said they felt “liberated” to talk on sensitive topics.Thirty-something Peter, from East London, said that “it might take weeks or months to get to the level of interaction we suddenly opened up.”

1.What can the “conversations” be best described as?

         A.Deep and one-on-one.       B.Sensitive and mad.

         C.Instant and inspiring.         D.Ordinary and encouraging.

2.In a “feast of conversations”, participants ______.

         A.pair freely with anyone they like

         B.have a guided talk for a set of period of time

         C.ask questions they themselves would not answer

         D.wear clothes reflecting multi-racial features.

3.In paragraph 6, “they would be ‘intimate’” is closest in meaning to “______”.

         A.they would have physical contact     B.they would have in-depth talk

         C.they would be close friends       D.they would exchange basic information

4.From the passage, we can conclude that what Zeldin does is ______.

         A.an attempt to promote thinking interaction

         B.one of the maddest activities ever conducted

         C.a try to liberate people from old-fashioned ideas

         D.an effort to give people a chance of talking freely

 

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

Imagine that Mom and Dad have friends over, and you have to talk to adults all evening.Say the wrong thing and the parents may get mad.But, say _50_, and they'll think you weren't friendly.So, _51_can you talk with adults?

It's _52_.Just ask them questions about themselves."Many of them like to talk about what they do for a living," suggests psychologist Tim Ursiny, author of The Confidence Plan.

Kids can also talk to grown-ups about _53_.Ask what the last good movie they saw was, because people at dinner parties "_54_" when the conversation turns to movies, Ursiny says.If a grown-up is _55_ Harry Potter, it's ok to talk about your love for Harry.It's a safe topic, one that both grown-ups and kids can enjoy, so go ahead and talk about whether Dumbledore is really dead.

But _56_the topic of video games."Adults don't want to hear about your video game _57_they play it," Ursiny explains.

Adults also don't want to hear slang.Don't use language they don't _58_.Ursiny says kids should learn to speak to other people in their own language.

_59_,most adults aren't into slang, they do remember what it was like to be a kid.Ursiny recommends asking adults what school was like when they were your age."It might be a fun discussion if you _60_your

10th-grade experience with theirs."_61_you chat with your parents beforehand to find out which topics are

off-limits(禁区).

Also, don't chat about things that make your parents feel guilty.Don't mention _62_ stuff such as how Dad has been sleeping on the couch, Ursiny says.And don't complain that Mom has been late preparing breakfast.

Instead, Ursiny says, kids should try to put themselves in their parents' _63_.Learning how to _64_that type of understanding might help you out in the future."The most successful people, can develop a sympathetic feeling for others," he says.

On my next trip, I put the   6    in my suitcase. That night when I called home, my daughter Jeanine was    7    because the penguin had disappeared. “Honey, he’s here with me,” I explained, “ I brought him    8  ”.

   9   , the penguin came with me --- as necessary as my briefcase. And we     10    along the way. In Albuquerque, I checked into a    11   , dropped my bag and ran to a meeting. When I returned, the maid had    12    the bed and stood the penguin on the pillow.

Jeanine is in college now, and I don’t travel    19   . The penguin sits on my table, a reminder that love is a wonderful traveling companion. All those years on    20   , it was the one thing I never left home without.
