第一篇Three Ways to Become More Creative
Most people believe they dont have has imagination. They are wrong. Everyone has imagination, but most of us，once we became adults, forget how to access it. Creativity isnt always connected with great works of art or ideas. People at work and in their free time routinely think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve，a tricky question to answer or you just want to expand your mind! Here are three techniques to help you.
This technique involves taking unrelated ideas and trying to find links between them. First，think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do. Then find an image，word，idea or object，for example，a candle. Write down all the ideas/words associated with candles：light，fire，matches, wax，night，silence，etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the ideas to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original present;you could buy him tickets to a match or take him out for the night.
Imagine that normal limitations dont exist. You have as much time/space/money，etc. as you want. Think about your goal and the new possibilities. If，for example，your goal is to learn to ski(滑雪)，you can now practice skiing every day of your life (because you have the time and the money). Now adapt this to reality. Maybe you can practice skiing every day in December，or every Monday in January.
Look at the situation from a different point of view. Good negotiators (談判者) use this technique in business，and so do writers. Fiction writers often imagine they are the characters in their books. They ask questions：what does this character want? Why cant she get it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? What does she dream about? If your goal involves other people，put yourself in their shoes. The best fishermen think like fish!
31. According to the passage, when we become adults，___________.
A. most of us are no longer creative
B. we are not as imaginative as children
C. we can still learn to be more creative
D. we are unwilling to be creative
32. According to the first technique，if you need to solve a problem，___________.
A. you should link it with candles
B. you could find an image and try to link it with the problem.
C. you have to think of buying a present for a friend
D. you should link it with as many words as possible
33. The second technique suggests that you just imagine ___________.
A. you have every resource to achieve your goal
B. setting a goal is as simple as skiing
C. new possibilities will soon appear
D. December and January are the best months for skiing
34. The phrase put yourself in their shoes in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to___________.
A. dress yourself like them
B. think as they would
C. do as they ask you to
D. put on their shoes
35. We learn from the third technique that a good salesman should ask himself ___________?
A. what do I usually do
B. what did my boss tell me to do
C. what are my customers needs
D. how should I sell my products
第二篇 Excessive Demands on Young People
Being able to multitask is-hailed by most people as a welcome skill, but not according to a recent study which claims that young people between the ages of eight and eighteen of the so-called Generation M are spending a considerable amount of their time in fruitless efforts as they multitask. It argues that, in fact, these young people are frittering(浪費) away as much as half of their time as they would if they performed the very same tasks one after the other.
Some young people are using an ever larger number of electronic devices as they study. At the same time they are working, young adults are also surfing on the Internet, or sending out emails to their friends, and/or answering the telephone and listening to music on their iPods or on another computer. As some new device comes along, it is also added to the list rather than replacing one of the existing devices. Other research has indicated that this multitasking is even affecting the way families themselves function as young people are too wrapped up in(沉湎于) their own isolated worlds to interact with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house nor can they eat at the family table.
All this electronic wizardry(魔力) is supposedly also seriously affecting young peoples performance at universit3t and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the impact of modern gadgets (小裝置) on their performance of tasks, the great majority of young people gave a favorable response.
The response from the academic and business worlds was not quite as positive. The former feel that multitasking with electronic gadgets by children affects later development of study skills, resulting in a decline in the quality of writing, for example, because of the lack of concentration on task completion. They feel that many undergraduates now urgently need remedial (補救的) help with study skills. Similarly, employers feel that young people entering the workforce need to be taught all over again, as they have become deskilled.
While all this may be true, it must be borne in mind that more and more is expected of young people nowadays; in fact, too much. Praise rather than criticism is due in respect of the way todays youth are able to cope despite what the older generation throw at them.
36. What is probably true about the multitasking Generation M?
A. They waste more time than they should spend.
B. They feel they are more efficient than others.
C. They put more energy on important tasks.
D. They need to improve their analytical skills.
37. With the introduction of new gadgets, what happens to the Generation Ms present e-devices?
A. They become part of their collection.
B. They give way to the latest.
C. They are quickly put aside.
D. They are sold to their friends.
38. Multitasking makes the Generation M ___________.
A. feel lonely add pitiful
B. selfish and aggressive
C. silent and sad
D. distant to their family
39. The academics feel that many undergraduates badly need to___________.
A. adjust their social attitudes.
B. seek psychological assistance.
C. take more business courses.
D. improve their study skills.
40. What attitude should the older generation adopt towards the multitasking youth?
A. Supportive.
B. Critical.
C. Thankful.
D. Negative.
第三篇 Cell Phones: Hang Up or Keep Talking?
Millions of people are using cell phones today. In many places it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cell phones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication-having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.
The explosions around the world in mobile phone use make some health professional worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.
On the other hand, why do some medical studies show changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones? Signs of change in the issues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning (掃描) equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memory loss. He couldnt remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employers doctor didnt agree.
What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about.
As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that its best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, its wise not to use your mobile phone too often
41. People buy cell phones for the following reasons EXCEPT that
A theyre popular
B theyre useful
C theyre convenient
D theyre cheap
42. The world detected in paragraph 3 could be best replaced by
A cured
B removed
C discovered
D caused
43. The salesman retired young because
A he couldnt remember simple tasks
B he disliked using mobile phones
C he was tired of talking on his mobile phone
D his employers doctor persuaded him to
44. On the safety issue of mobile phones, the manufacturing companies
A hold that the amount of radiation is too small to worry about
B deny the existence of mobile phone radiation
C develop new technology to reduce mobile phone radiation
D try to prove that mobile phones are not harmful to health
45. The writers purpose of writing this article is to advise people
A to buy mobile phones
B to use mobile phones less often
C to update regular phones
D to stop using mobile phones
