Most people believe they don't have imagination. They are wrong. Everyone has imagination, but most of us，once we became adults, forget how to access it. Creativity isn't 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 don't 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, 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 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 can't 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!
【小題1】According to the passage, when we become adults, _________ .

A．most of us are no longer creativeB．we can still learn to be more creative
C．we are not as imaginative as childrenD．we are unwilling to be creative
【小題2】The second technique suggests that you just imagine
A．setting a goal is as simple as skiing
B．new possibilities will soon appear
C．December and January are the best months for skiing.
D．you have every resource to achieve your goal
【小題3】The phrase “put yourself in their shoes” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ______  .
A．dress yourself like themB．think as they would
C．do as they ask you toD．put on their shoes
【小題4】We learn from the third technique that a good salesman should ask himself “ _________ ?”.
A．what do I usually doB．what did my boss tell me to do
C．what are my customers' needsD．how should I sell my products

If you have ever been discouraged(受挫) because of failure(失敗), please read on. Usually, achieving(實(shí)現(xiàn)) what you set out to do is not the important thing. Let me explain.
Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.
“What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors.
“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers answered excitedly.
The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders（蜘蛛）, worms and a lot of insects. He removed the lid（揭開(kāi)蓋子） and showed the wonderful contents to the visitors who were laughing at them. Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!”
Their goal was far too difficult, but it made them dig. And that is what a goal is for—to make us move in the direction we have chosen. In other words, it sets us to digging!
But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!” And I believe it is the joy in the journey, in the end, that truly matters.
【小題1】The writer told us the story to ________ .

A．a(chǎn)dvise us to treats（對(duì)待） our failures fairly
B．persuade us to make an aim for our lives
C．encourage us to learn from the two brothers
D．prove that failure helps us make achievements
【小題2】What’s the best title of the passage?
A．Failure is the mother of success
B．When there is a will, there is a way
C．No pains, no gains
D．Joy in the journey
【小題3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Digging a hole all the way through the earth is impossible.
B．The writer thinks that the two brothers will reach their goal one day.
C．A goal is something that makes us want to dig holes.
D．Everyone can succeed if he sets a practical goal.

Have you ever been sad because of failure? Please remember, for often, achieving what you set out to do is not the most important thing.
A boy decided to dig a deep hole behind his house. As he was working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “I want to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a while, the boy picked up a jar. He showed it to the visitors.
