Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test
at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of
Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:”Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You
have 45 minutes today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.”
A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do.
Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the
model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.
Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His
constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I
was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind
at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose
creativity would infect(感染) other students.
Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those
students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, ” But I’m just
not creative.”
“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”
“Oh, sure.”
“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something
wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s
pretty creative. Who does that for you?”
“Nobody. I do it.”
“Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”
“Sure.”
“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”
25. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?
A. know more about the students B. make the lessons more
exciting
C. raise the students’ interest in art D. teach the students about
toy design
26. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. He liked to help his teacher. B. He preferred to study
alone.
C. He was active in class. D. He was imaginative.
27. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Mistake. B. Drawback.
C. Difficulty. D. Burden.
28. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?
A. To help them to see their creativity. B. To find out about their
sleeping habits.
C. To help them to improve their memory. D. To find out about their
ways of thinking.
C
Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups.
They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website
BookCrossing turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.
Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share.
BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person
leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and
wide with each new reader who finds it.
Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things
that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing
combines both.”
Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee
shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.
People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought
of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their
books have been found. Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by
keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.
BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real”
and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than
one hundred thirty-five countries.
29. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?
A. To explain what they are.
B. To introduce BookCrossing.
C. To stress the importance of reading.
D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.
30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2refer to?
A. The book. B. An adventure.
C.A public place. D. The identification number.
31. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?
A. Meet other readers to discuss it. B. Keep it safe in his
bookcase.
C. Pass it on to another reader. D. Mail it back to its owner.
32. What is the best title for the text?
A. Online Reading: A Virtual Tour B. Electronic Books: A new
Trend
C. A Book Group Brings Tradition Back D. A Website Links People
through Books

A new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life
Frank Hurley’s pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate
photo-journalism---if they had been made last week. In fact, they were shot from 1914
through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had
no reasonable expectation of survival. Many of the images were stored in an ice chest,
under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.
The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was
intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men
in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton
wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent. The journey was
intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott
had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the
march back.
As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story
The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scott’s last
journey, completed as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s
imagination, and a film made in his honor drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British
merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a
business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography. Frank
Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired
to make the images, most of which have never before been published.
33. What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?
A. They were made last week
B. They showed undersea sceneries
C. They were found by a cameraman
D. They recorded a disastrous adventure
34. Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?
A. Frank Hurley B. Ernest Shackleton
C. Robert Falcon Scott D. Caroline Alexander
35. What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?
A. Artistic creation B. Scientific research
C. Money making D. Treasure hunting

A garden that’s just right for you
Have you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere
of the garden appeared to total more than the sum(总和) of its parts? 36 . But it doesn’t
happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are
with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.
● 37
Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and
masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less
water and fewer fertilizers(肥料). 38 . However, there are a number of other reasons
that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.
●Recall(回忆) your childhood memories
Our model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood. Grandma’s
rose garden and Dad’s vegetable garden might be good or bad, but that’s not what’s
important. 39 --how being in those gardens made us feel. If you’d like to build a
powerful bond with your garden, start by taking some time to recall the gardens of your
youth. 40 then go outside and work out a plan to translate your childhood memories
into your grown-up garden. Have fun.
A. Know why you garden
B. Find a good place for your own garden
C. It’s our experience of the garden that matters
D. It’s delightful to see so many beautiful flowers
E. Still others may simply enjoy being outdoors and close to plants
F. You can produce that kind of magical quality in your own garden, too
G. For each of those gardens, writer down the strongest memory you have

Hundreds of people have formed impressions of you through that little device(装置)
on your desk. And they’ve never actually 41 you. Everything they know about
you 42 through this device, sometimes from hundreds of miles away. 43 they feel
they can know you 44 from the sound of your voice. That’s how powerful the 45 is.
Powerful, yes, but not always 46 . For years I dealt with my travel agent only by
phone. Rani, my faceless agent whom I’d never met 47 , got me rock-bottom prices on
airfares, cars, and hotels. But her cold voice really 48 me. I sometimes wished
to 49 another agent.
One morning, I had to 50 an immediate flight home for a family emergency. I ran
into Rani’s office 51 . The woman sitting at the desk, 52 my madness, sympathetically
jumped up. She gave me a 53 smile, nodded while listening patiently, and then printed
out the 54 immediately. “What a wonderful lady!” I thought.
Rushing out 55 I called out over my shoulder, “By the way, what’s your name?” “I’m
Rani,” she said. I turned around and saw a 56 woman with a big smile on her face
waving to wish me a safe trip. I was 57 ! Why had I thought she was cold? Rani was,
well, so 58 Sitting back in the car on the way to the airport, I figured it all out.
Rani’s 59 ---her warm smile, her nods, her ‘I’m here for you’ 60 ---were all silent signals
that didn’t travel through wires.

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容〔1个单词〕或括号内单词的正确形式。
If you feel stressed by responsibilities at work, you should take a step back and
identify (识别) those of 61 (great)and less importance. Then, handle the most important
tasks first so you’ll feel a real sense of 62 (achieve). Leaving the less important things
until tomorrow 63 (be) often acceptable.
Most of us are more focused 64 our tasks in the morning than we are later in the
day. So, get an early start and try to be as productive 65 possible before lunch. This will
give you the confidence you need to get you through the afternoon and go home feeling
accomplished.
Recent 66 (study) show that we are far more productive at work if we take short
breaks 67 (regular). Give your body and brain a rest by stepping outside for 68 while,
exercising, or dong something you enjoy.
If you find something you love doing outside of the office, you’ll be less
likely 69 (bring) your work home. It could be anything-gardening, cooking, music,
sports—but whatever it is, 70 (make) sure it’s a relief from daily stress rather than
