How to be more creative every day

Creativity isn’t something you either have or don’t have. In fact, it is something like playing the saxophone.【1】So read on to know how.

Be more curious.

It’s important to seek out new viewpoints every day. 【2】To involve this in your daily life, make sure to keep an open mind when you’re presented with an idea, and be curious as to what else is around the comer.

Give yourself space.

Letting every piece of information into your brain drags you from being creative. Try to apply a level of space into your everyday life. 【3】It helps to lead your thinking patterns away from potential distractions (潛在分心的事物), leaving much room to have creative ideas.

Try something new.

Frequent thinking patterns, in effect, cause you to be more likely to think the same things or make the same decisions over and over unless you get out of your comfort zone. 【4】Though not always easy, it does open up a whole new world of thinking!

【5】

Social media has created an environment where we’re constantly shown whether we’ve succeeded in the form of likes or comments, which leads us to doubt ourselves. However, creativity is a journey, and you’re learning every step of the way. Honestly, you’ll learn much more from that than a straight win anyway. So be confident and tell yourself you have already done well enough.

A. Learn from failure.

B. Remind yourself you’re good enough.

C. The 8 p. m. — 8 a. m. phone ban is a great way to begin.

D. Getting physical really helps to sort out your brain space.

E. But it’s not easy to feel or be automatically creative either.

F. Thus you can think and approach things from another angle.

G. Using your skills in a different area is a great way to think outside the box.

【解析】本文講述了每天如何更具有創(chuàng)造性。

【1】考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。前一句說“事實(shí)上，它就像玩薩克斯管�！焙笠痪湔f“所以請(qǐng)繼續(xù)了解如何去做�！惫蔈項(xiàng)“但它不容易感受到或自動(dòng)創(chuàng)新”承接上下文。

【2】考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。前一句說“每天尋找新的觀點(diǎn)是很重要的來”，故F項(xiàng)“因此你可以從另一個(gè)角度去思考和處理事情。”承接上一句話。

【3】考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)上句說要每天給自己空間，故C項(xiàng) “從晚上八點(diǎn)到第二天早上八點(diǎn)關(guān)閉手機(jī)開始�！笔菍�(duì)上一句的具體闡述。故選C。

【4】考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。上文說“頻繁的思維模式，實(shí)際上使你更容易思考相同的事情或一遍又一遍作出相同的決定，除非你走出你的舒適區(qū)�！毕乱痪湔f“雖然并不容易，但它確實(shí)開辟了一個(gè)全新的思維世界！”，故G項(xiàng)“在不同的領(lǐng)域使用你的技能是思考跨出禁錮的一個(gè)偉大的方式�！背薪由舷挛�。

【5】考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。文章最后一段講述了要自信，相信自己會(huì)做的很好。故選B。

【題目】How to Become More Confident

Our confidence plays an important role in ability to achieve success and happiness. It affects our mental thought patterns, the way we speak and act, and the decisions we make in all areas of our lives. Confident people take more action, perform better, and are more likely to achieve their goals.【1】Lucky for us, confidence can be built and strengthened until it becomes natural, just as any other habit. It simply takes a little time, some effort, and a bit of attention.

Fail more often. The more challenges you take on, the more failures you’ll have, but learning that you can recover, get up and push forward builds confidence.

【2】Keep a list of successes, big and small. It’ll help you to see your abilities in a more positive and realistic light.

Start a conversation. When you find yourself in a social situation, don’t always turn to those people you’re comfortable with.【3】Eventually getting to know new people will become easier.

Don’t compare. Stop measuring yourself against others.【4】Making comparisons is a damaging and an inaccurate measure of success anyway.

Confidence helps you to be more secure in your abilities and more positive in your attitude. It also encourages you to be more assertive(堅(jiān)定自信的) to take on more challenges, and to improve your skills.【5】The end result is a better outlook, more success, and a higher quality of life in all areas.

A. List your super abilities

B. It may only do harm to them

C. Track your accomplishments

D. The result you get isn’t always real

E. Talk to someone you don’t know very well

F. As an added benefit, you’ll attract like-minded people

G. What’s more, confident people can take more joy from their accomplishments

【題目】Is it OK for children to count on their fingers? Generations of pupils have been discouraged by their teachers from using their hands when learning maths. But a new research article published in Frontiers in Education shows using fingers may be a very important part of maths learning.

The article, by Professor Tim Jay of Sheffield Hallam University and independent researcher Dr Julie Betenson, substantiates what parents have long felt -- that the finger games children often play at home are central to their education.

The researchers worked with 137 primary pupils aged between six and seven. All the children were given different combinations of counting and number games to play -- but only some were given exercises which involved finger-training. Some pupils played games involving number symbols, such as dominoes, shut-the-box, or snakes and ladders. Other pupils were asked to play finger games, such as being asked to hold up a given number of fingers, or numbering fingers from 1 to 5 and then having to match one of them by touching it against the corresponding(對(duì)應(yīng)) finger on the other hand, or following coloured lines using a particular finger. Both these groups did a little better in maths tests than a third group of pupils who had simply had 'business as usual' with their teachers. But the group which did both the counting and the finger games performed far better.

This study provides evidence that fingers provide children with a “bridge” between different representations of numbers, which can be verbal, written or symbolic. Combined finger training and number games could be a useful tool for teachers to support children's understanding of numbers.

【1】How did the author introduce the topic of the text?

A. By providing evidence B. By raising a question

C. By giving an example D. By making comparisons

【2】The underlined word “substantiates” in paragraph 2 most probably means “______”.

A. supports B. changes

C. ignores D. advertises

【3】What can we know about the research mentioned in the text?

A. It is carried out by two university professors

B. Its research subjects are mostly pre-school children

C. It is based on the comparison of two groups of children

D. Its findings should draw the attention of math teachers.

【4】What does the author think of children’s finger counting?

A. Boring B. Foolish

C. Helpful D. Unique
