I separated them into six groups and gave them an example: a restaurant chain. The more original their idea, the better, I said. Finally, five of the six groups presented plans for restaurant chains. The sixth proposed a catering(餐饮) service. Though I admitted the time limit had been difficult, I expressed my disappointment.My students were middle managers, financial analysts and financiers from state-owned enterprises and global companies. They were not without talent or opinions, but they had been shaped by an educational system that rarely stressed or rewarded critical thinking or inventiveness. The scene I just described came in different forms during my two years teaching at the school. Papers were often copied from the Web and the Harvard Business Review. Case study debates were written up and just memorized. Students frequently said that copying is a superior business strategy, better than inventing and creating.In China, every product you can imagine has been made and sold. But so few well-developed marketing and management minds have been raised that it will be a long time before most people in the world can name a Chinese brand.With this problem in mind, partnerships with institutions like Yale and MIT have been established. And then theres the “thousand-talent scheme”: this new government program is intended to improve technological modernization by attracting top foreign-trained scientists to the mainland with big money. But there are worries about Chinas research environment. Its hardly known for producing independent thinking and openness, and even big salary offers may not be attractive enough to overcome this.At last, for China, becoming a major world creator is not just about setting up partnerships with top Western universities. Nor is it about gathering a group of well-educated people and telling them to think creatively. Its about establishing a rich learning environment for young minds. Its not that simple.21Why does the author feel disappointed at his students?ABecause there is one group presenting a catering service.BBecause the six groups made projects for restaurant chains.CBecause all the students copied a case for the difficult topic.DBecause the students ideas were lacking in creativeness.22Which of the following scenes is NOT considered as lack of creation?APapers were often downloaded from the Internet.BStudents often said that copying is a preferable business strategy.CStudents combine knowledge and critical thoughts to solve a problem.DCase study debates were written up as well as recited.23The underlined word “scheme” in the forth paragraph means_.AtimetableBthemeCprojectDpolicy24We can infer from the passage that _.AChina can make and sell any product all over the worldBhigh pay may not solve the problem of Chinas research environmentCcooperation with institutions has been set up to make a Chinese brandDthe new government program are aimed at encouraging imagination25Which is the best title of the passage?ALook for a New Way of Learning BReward Creative ThinkingCHow to Become a Creator D.
