When I started Scial-Engineer，I just left a cmpany that was amazing.It was like a family.The pain f leaving was real fr me and like all family separatin，it wasn't 100% smth.I was heartbrken t leave but wanted t take every lessn I learned t my new cmpany.I was determined t als take all the gd memries with me.Yes，there were mistakes frm bth sides f the fence but instead f fcusing n thse，I went away remembering all the great times，life lessns and grwth I had gifted t me.
I figured I wuld grw my cmpany by being a nice man and wrking hard，and never demanding mre frm my peple than I was willing t give，believing this apprach wuld earn respect and effrt in return.I wuld say things t myself like， "Well，I did this，s they shuld d that." Or "I am this way，s they shuld be that way."
And t be hnest，it felt real.It felt like it was an hnest evaluatin.

I started t have peple prblems.I am a very strng，direct cmmunicatr and althugh in many ways that is a strength，it can be a weakness in ther ways.I ften hurt peple's feelings.Even thugh I was very self-aware f this，I still messed up.Nw this is dd t admit ut lud fr a cmpany that basically fcuses n helping dzens f cmpanies make huge changes.
I went t see a psychlgist.Natasha actively listened t all I said and then every nw and then presented a thught as a questin r a mild statement.She wanted t challenge me t change，challenge me t expand my thughts.I was in my sessin with Natasha and I was saying things like this：
"I gave this persn tens f thusands f dllars in a raise in ne year，they shuld be mre appreciative."
"I have a great salary，benefits and supprt package，this persn shuld have been mre thankful."
Natasha stpped me and said， "Well，yu just SHOULD all ver yurself，didn't yu？Did yu pay fr devtin？Did yu pay fr hnr？Did yu pay fr appreciatin？"
The sad answer was NO.
"Yu want t see the change that yu s desire — then be the change，" Natasha said.She then mentined Bruce Lee，wh said "Empty yur mind，be frmless.Shapeless，like water.If yu put water int a cup，it becmes the cup.Yu put water int a bttle and it becmes the ，water can flw r it can crash.Be water，my friend."
I knw what I shuld d.Will yu jin me？

Ten years ag，the prfessrs Brian Lucas and Lran Nrdgren encuntered a cntradictin.On the ne hand，we recgnize that ther peple are mre likely t make creative breakthrughs when they persevere.On the ther hand.when we feel stuck n a prblem，mst f us fail t sec hw successful we'll be if we just keep trying.We tend t believe that ur creativity drps ver time — that if ur best ideas dn't cme t us immediately，they wn't cme at all.
Lucas and Nrdgren call this misunderstanding the "creative cliff illusin"，which refers t the false belief that ur creativity sharply declines after an initial perid f effrt，leading us t underestimate ur ability t generate new and innvative ideas with cntinued perseverance.In ne experiment，they asked participants t spend 10 minutes generating "as many riginal ideas fr things t eat and drink at a Thanksgiving dinner as yu can. " Afterward，participants were asked t guess hw many ideas they wuld cme up with during a secnd 10-minute perid.Mst expected t generate far fewer ideas the secnd time arund，but in fact they prduced just as many during that secnd perid — 66 percent mre than they had guessed.And thse were rated by ther peple as mre creative than the initial ideas.
Thugh we tend t think ur ability t cme up with ideas is easily cnsumed，we actually get mre creative the lnger we fcus n a prblem r task.One majr reasn fr this is knwn as the "serial-rder effect".Each next creative idea we have is likely t be better than the ne that came befre.
The serial-rder effect isn't always easy t see.Mst f us have adpted the belief that creativity shuld feel easy，r "fluent".And s we assciate mental difficulty with pintlessness.But wrking thrugh bad ideas is a necessary step in the creative prcess.The first slutins that cme t mind tend t be either preexisting ideas r ppular wisdm.These are the paths f least resistance.Thugh aviding them requires sme wrk，it's the surest way t find riginal ideas that aren't immediately manifest.
The serial-rder effect applies t tasks that last minutes r days，but creativity als imprves acrss years，decades，and even careers.The life's wrk f mst successful entrepreneurs prves it.
12.What des the cntradictin mainly tell us abut？ ______
A. Tw prfessrs' wnder.
B. The best ideas fr failures.
C. Peple's mental tendency.
D. Immediate slutins t creativity.
13.Hw wuld the participants feel abut the secnd-rund results？ ______
A. Humble.B. Surprised.C. Hpeful.D. Uncncerned.
14.What des the underlined wrd "manifest" mean？ ______
A. Obvius.B. Effective.C. Attractive.D. Acceptable.
15.What des the text intend t tell us？ ______
A. Peple can be mre creative with age.
B. Creativity cmes frm creative appraches.
C. Creativity actually increases with cntinued effrt.
D. Peple can avid misunderstandings abut creativity.

But smetimes，the resistance isn't really abut the actual time the wrkut takes.It's abut the energy it takes t get ready fr it.Maybe yur stress levels are ver the tp，r yur energy levels have been s lw that yu keep talking yurself ut f a wrkut.Or maybe yu just dn't want t get all sweaty and have t take a shwer afterward. （2） ______ In such fast-paced life，we're all struggling.But when it cmes t exercise，being healthy and fit isn't as black and white as the fitness wrld tries t make it seem. （3） ______ Ding smething is always better than nthing when it cmes t mvement.Micr wrkuts，like getting ut fr a fifteen-minute walk instead f ding the strength training wrkut，are significantly better than ding nthing at all.

（2）推理判断题。根据第六段的I started t have peple prblems.I am a very strng，direct cmmunicatr and althugh in many ways that is a strength，it can be a weakness in ther ways.I ften hurt peple's feelings（我开始有人际关系问题。我是一个非常强大、直接的沟通者，虽然在很多方面这是一个优点，但在其他方面也可能是一个缺点。我经常伤害别人的感情）可知，作者问题的根源在于他的社交技能。故选D。
（3）推理判断题。根据倒数第四段中Natasha反问作者的话Well，yu just SHOULD all ver yurself，didn't yu？Did yu pay fr devtin？Did yu pay fr hnr？Did yu pay fr appreciatin（嗯，你认为都"应该"，对吗？你为忠诚付钱了吗？你为荣誉付钱了吗？你为感激付钱了吗）和倒数第三段中The sad answer was NO（这个可悲的答案是否定的）可推知，从治疗的过程中，Natasha发现作者陷入了自己的思维陷阱，即作者认为他给员工支付的工资是用来买员工的忠诚、荣誉和感激，这是错误是思维方式。故选A。

12~15.【答案】C、B、A、C
【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段Ten years ag，the prfessrs Brian Lucas and Lran Nrdgren encuntered a cntradictin.On the ne hand，we recgnize that ther peple are mre likely t make creative breakthrughs when they persevere.On the ther hand.when we feel stuck n a prblem，mst f us fail t sec hw successful we'll be if we just keep trying.We tend t believe that ur creativity drps ver time — that if ur best ideas dn't cme t us immediately，they wn't cme at all.（十年前，Brian Lucas和Lran Nrdgren教授遇到了一个矛盾。一方面，我们认识到，当其他人坚持不懈时，他们更有可能取得创造性的突破。另一方面。当我们被一个问题困住时，我们大多数人都无法想象如果我们继续努力，我们会取得多大的成功。我们倾向于相信我们的创造力会随着时间的推移而下降——如果我们最好的想法不能立即出现，它们就不会出现。）可知，矛盾的焦点在于人们对于他人和自身有不同的想法，一方面认为别人的坚持不懈会带来成功，但当面对自身时，就容易泄气，认为自己的创造力会枯竭。故该矛盾主要谈论的是人们的心理倾向。故选C项。
（2）推理判断题。根据第二段Mst expected t generate far fewer ideas the secnd time arund，but in fact they prduced just as many during that secnd perid — 66 percent mre than they had guessed.（大多数人预计第二次产生的想法会少得多，但事实上，他们在第二次产生的想法和第一次一样多——比他们猜测的多66%。）可知，参与者对这样的结果会感到惊讶。故选B项。
（3）词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段The first slutins that cme t mind tend t be either preexisting ideas r ppular wisdm.These are the paths f least resistance.Thugh aviding them requires sme wrk，it's the surest way t find riginal ideas（首先想到的解决方案往往是既有的想法或流行的智慧。这些都是阻力最小的途径。虽然避免它们需要一些努力，但这是找到原创想法的最可靠方法）可知，找到原创想法并非轻而易举的事，因为头脑中立刻闪现的想法往往是既有的想法或是通俗的智慧，所以要刻意地避免它们，才可能获得原创的想法，故推知，原创想法并不是在脑海中立刻显而易见的想法，故manifest意为"明显的"。A．Obvius明显的；B．Effective高效的；C．Attractive有吸引力的；D．Acceptable可以接受的。故选A项。
（4）推理判断题。根据最后一段The serial-rder effect applies t tasks that last minutes r days，but creativity als imprves acrss years，decades，and even careers.The life's wrk f mst successful entrepreneurs prves it.（连续顺序效应适用于持续几分钟或几天的任务，但创造力也会在几年、几十年甚至职业生涯中得到提高。大多数成功企业家的毕生工作证明了这一点。）可知，创造力实际上会随着日复一日的持续努力而增加。故选C项。
这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项实验研究，表明创造力会随着日复一日的持续努力而增加。

首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
16~20.【答案】E、A、B、C、D

（3）联系上文题。结合前文观点和上文But when it cmes t exercise，being healthy and fit isn't as black and white as the fitness wrld tries t make it seem.（但说到锻炼，健康和健美并不像健身界所说的那样非此即彼。）可知，健康和健美并非像健身界所说的那样，一定花很多时间和精力来坚持，B项"健身可以简单、轻松、方便。"承接上文，明确观点：健身可以简单、轻松、方便，并不复杂，符合语境。故选B项。
（4）段落主旨题。下文They are time-saving，since they can be dne in secnds r in as little time as 15-20 minutes.They require minimum space and equipment.Many can be dne at hme，in the park，r even while waiting in the checkut line.They are als mney-saving as these can be dne withut a gym membership，cach，trainer，r class instructr.（它们很节省时间，因为它们可以在几秒钟内完成，也可以在15-20分钟内完成。它们只需要最小的空间和设备。很多都可以在家里、公园里、甚至在排队结账的时候完成。它们也很省钱，因为这些可以在没有健身房会员、教练、训练师或班主任的情况下完成。）详细介绍了微锻炼的优点，是对C项"微锻炼的好处是显而易见的。"内容的说明。C项为段首主题句。故选C项。
（5）语境衔接题。上文S in rder t maintain a healthy lifestyle，make time t mve.（因此，为了保持健康的生活方式，请腾出时间来运动。）提出腾出时间运动的建议，D项"试着在一天中增加一些微锻炼。"承接上文，进一步提出逐渐增加锻炼内容的要求，下文If all the mvements like push-ups and pull-ups add up，yu will still get many f the same benefits f a lnger，harder wrkut.（如果把俯卧撑和引体向上等所有运动加起来，你仍然会得到许多与长时间、高强度锻炼相同的好处。）说明这样做的结果，符合语境。故选D项。
本文是一篇说明文。文章指出，尽管许多人认为需要长时间锻炼才能保持健康，但实际上，每周几次的10至20分钟高强度锻炼就足以燃烧脂肪、增强肌肉、提高力量，并促进健康活跃的生活方式。
