“Creativity is the key t a brighter future,” say educatin and business experts. Here is hw schls and parents can encurage this imprtant skill in children.
If Dick Drew had listened t his bss in 1925, we might nt have the prduct that we nw think greatly imprtant: a new type f tape. Drew wrked fr the Minnesta Mining and Manufacturing Cmpany. At wrk he develped a kind f material strng enugh t hld things tgether. But his bss tld him nt t think mre abut the idea. Finally, using his wn time, Drew imprved the tape, which nw is used everywhere by many peple. And his frmer cmpany learned frm its mistake. Nw it encurages peple t spend 15 percent f their wrking time just thinking abut and develping new ideas.
Creativity is nt smething ne is just brn with, nr is it necessarily a character f high intelligence. The fact that a persn is highly intelligent des nt mean that he uses it creatively. Creativity is the matter f using the resurces ne has t prduce new ideas that are gd fr smething.
Unfrtunately, schls have nt tried t encurage creativity. With strng attentin t test results and the develpment f reading, writing and mathematical skills, many educatrs give up creativity fr crrect answers. The result is that children can gain infrmatin but can’t recgnize ways t use it in new situatins. They may knw the rules crrectly but they are unable t use them t wrk ut practical prblems.
It is imprtant t give children chices. Frm the earliest age, children shuld be allwed t make decisins and understand their results. Even if it’s chsing between tw fd items fr lunch, decisin-making helps thinking skills. As children grw lder, parents shuld try t let them decide hw t use their time r spend their mney. This is because the mst imprtant character f creative peple is a very strng desire t find a way ut f truble.
4. What did the cmpany where Drew nce wrked learn frm its mistake?
A. It shuld encurage peple t wrk a lnger time.
B. Peple shuld be discuraged t think freely.
C. Peple will d better if they pay all attentin t their wrk.
D. It is necessary fr peple t spend sme f their wrking time develping new ideas.
5. What can we knw frm the passage abut creativity?
A. It is smething that mst peple are brn with.
B. It is smething that has nthing t d with intelligence at all.
C. It is a way f using what ne has learned t wrk ut new prblems.
D. It is smething that is nt imprtant t the life in the future at all.
6. Why dn’t schls try t encurage creativity?
A. They dn’t attach imprtance t creativity educatin.
B. They dn’t want their students t make mistakes.
C. They pay n attentin t examinatin marks.
D. They think it impssible t develp creativity in class.
7. What shuld the parents d when their children decide hw t spend their mney?
A. Allw them t have a try.
B. Try t help them as much as pssible.
C. Take n ntice f whatever they d.
D. Order them t spend the least mney.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. A

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了亚马逊雨林是全球最大雨林，对生态平衡至关重要，拥有丰富的生物多样性，被称为“地球之肺”，同时也是药物和食物的重要来源。但由于人类活动，如农业和畜牧业，已有大量雨林消失。
【36题详解】考查形容词。句意：亚马逊雨林是世界上最大的雨林，在维持地球生态系统的平衡方面发挥着重要作用。空处是修饰rle的定语，significance的形容词形式significant符合题意，意为“重要的”。故填significant。
【37题详解】考查介词。句意：它横跨八个国家，包括巴西和秘鲁。句子主干成分完整，结合空后名词短语“Brazil and Peru”可知，此处指“包括巴西和秘鲁”，空处应用介词including，意为“包括”。故填including。
【38题详解】考查冠词。句意：雨林面积约为600万平方公里，面积超过中国的一半。空处表示特指，指上文提到的The Amazn rainfrest，应用定冠词the。故填the。
【39题详解】考查动词语态。句意：在亚马逊可以找到4万多种植物。空处和can构成句子的谓语，find“发现，找到”和主语Mre than 40,000 species f plants之间是被动关系，应用被动语态。故填be fund。
【40题详解】考查名词。句意：森林的不同层次为种类繁多的野生动物提供了食物和庇护所。空处被an unbelievable修饰，应用名词variety“种类，品种”，固定短语a variety f意为“各种各样的”。故填variety。
【41题详解】考查名词复数。句意：1300多种鸟类和400多种哺乳动物隐藏在丛林中。空处作f的宾语，根据“400 species f”可知，mammal“哺乳动物”应用复数形式。故填mammals。
【42题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：亚马逊雨林通过固定碳和生产超过20%的地球氧气，为地球呼吸生命。空处作by的宾语，应用fix“固定”的动名词形式。故填fixing。
【43题详解】考查表语从句。句意：这就是为什么它被称为“地球之肺”。空处引导名词性从句作表语，结合上一句内容可知，从句中缺少原因状语，空处需表达“为什么，为何”，应用连接副词why作引导词。故填why。
【44题详解】考查副词。句意：然而，在过去的50年里，由于农业和畜牧业等人类活动，大约17%的雨林已经消失。上文强调雨林的重要性，下文指出很多雨林已经消失，上下文语义构成转折，且空后有逗号，因此空处应用意为“然而”的副词hwever连接上下文，且句首单词的首字母需大写。故填Hwever。
【45题详解】考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：然而，在过去的50年里，由于农业和畜牧业等人类活动，大约17%的雨林已经消失。空处作句子的谓语，时间状语为ver the past 50 years，时态应用现在完成时，abut 17 per cent f the rainfrest作主语，the rainfrest为单数，助动词用has。故填has disappeared。
