【題目】 About 59% of engineering companies in the IET's 2014 survey feared skill shortages could threaten（威脅） business. Engineers should embrace（接受） the arts, Sir John O'Reilly, a fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology, argued in a lecture.

"There is nothing as creative as engineering," Sir John told the reporter. He says science, technology, engineering and mathematics - often known as "Stem" subjects, are vital for a modern knowledge economy. But there is a massive shortfall in the number of recruits（招聘） - with a recent study by the Royal Academy of Engineering saying the UK needs to increase by as much as 50% the number of Stem graduates it produces.

Delivering this year's Mountbatten Lecture at the Royal Institution, Sir John argued that engineers should recognise the role of the arts in their work - among other benefits; this could attract more people into the profession. The lecture, Full Steam Ahead for Growth, advocated a wider adoption -- Steam, or science, technology, engineering, arts and maths. Engineers should embrace the arts as being key to creativity and an important component of innovation（創(chuàng)新）, crucial to creating new products and boosting future competitiveness, he argued. "Engineering and technology is an increasingly diverse and creative field," said Sir John.

Some university engineering departments already cooperated with art schools to develop understanding, he told the reporter. In particular he mentioned Cranfield University's Centre for Creative Competitive Design and Imperial College's work with the Royal College of Art. The two sets of people could work well together and more emphasis on the creative side of engineering could improve the success of products, he said.

"Aesthetics(美學(xué)) is part of it," he told the reporter, adding that Apple's iPod was not the first digital media player, nor the only one that worked - but it came to dominate the market "because it was nice to have".

Sir John said he was not suggesting universities started requiring A-level art from engineering applicants - the key subjects for admission would continue to be maths and the sciences. But an emphasis on creative skills would help "broaden the pool and attract more people in".

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A. Lack of creativity makes it difficult for the engineering major to find a satisfactory job.

B. The key subjects for engineering majors remain to be maths and the sciences rather than arts.

C. University engineering departments should cooperate with art schools to improve the success of products.

D. Engineering needs to emphasize its creative side to encourage more young people to choose it as a career.

David was a small boy in ragged clothes. I had often wondered what kind of home life David had, and what kind of mother could send her son to school 【1】 (dress) so inappropriately for the cold winter months. But something made David special. He always stayed after school 【2】 （straighten） chairs and mop the floor. He would just simply smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for 【3】 (let ) him stay and slowly head for home.

On the last day of school before Christmas holiday break, I saw David 【4】 (quiet) standing by my desk.“I have something for you.” he said and 【5】 (pull )from behind his back a small box. Handing it to me, he said anxiously, “【6】 it.” I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped it. I lifted the lid and to my surprise saw 【7】 . I looked at David’s smiling face and said, “The box is nice, David, 【8】 it’s empty.”“Oh no, it isn’t.” said David. “It’s full of love. My mum told me before she died that love was something you couldn’t see or touch unless you know it’s there.”

Tears filled my eyes as I looked at the proud dirty face that I 【9】 (rarely give) attention to. After that Christmas, David and I became good friends and I never forgot 【10】 meaning behind the little empty box set on my desk.
