us once much imagination They are wrong Everyone we become adults forget how to access it Creativit r isn t always connected with great works of art or ideas People at work and in their free time routinely think of creative ways to solve problems Maybe you have a goal to achieve a tricky question to answer or you just want to expand your mind Here are three techniques to help you This technique involves taking unrelated ideas and trying to find links between them First think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do Then find an image word idea or object for example a candle Write down all the ideas words associated with candles light fire matches wax night silence etc Think of as many as you can The next stage is to relate the ideas to the job you have to do So imagine you want to buy a friend an original present you could buy him tickets to a match or take him out for the night Imagine that normal limitations don t exist You have as much time space money etc as you want Think about your goal and the new possibilities If for example your goal is to learn to ski 滑雪 you can now practice skiing every day of your life because you have the time and the money Now adapt this to reality Maybe you can practice skiing every day in December or every Monday in January Look at the situation from a different point of view Good negotiators 谈判者 use this technique in business and so do writers Fiction writers often imagine they are the characters in their books They ask questions what does this character want Why can t she get it What changes must she make to get what she wants What does she dream about If your goal involves other people put yourself in their shoes The best fishermen think like fish 36 According to the passage rwhen we become adults A most of us are no longer creative B we are not as imaginative as children C we can stilllearn to be more creative D we are unwillfng to be creative 37 According to the first technique if you need to solve a problem A you should link it with candles B you have to think of buying a present for a friend C you should link it with as many words as possible D you could find an image and try to link it with the problem 38 The second technique suggests that you just imagine A setting a goalis as simple as skiing B you have every resource to achieve your goal C new possibilities will soon appear D December and January are the best months for skiing 39 The phrase put yourself in their shoes in paragraph 4 is closest in m eaning to A dressyourselflikethem B do as they ask you to C put on their shoes D think as they would 40 We learn from the third technique that a good salesman should ask himself A what are my customers needs B what do I usually do C what did my boss tell me to do D how should I sell my products 第三篇 The State of Marriage Today Is there something seriousty wrong with marriage today During the past 50 years the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded almost 50 of marriages end in divorce now and the evidence suggests it is going to get worse If this trend continues it will lead to the breakup of the family according to a spokesperson for the National Family Association Some futurists predict that in 100 years the average American will marry at least four times and extramaritai 婚外的 affairs will be even more common than they are now But what are the reasons for this and is the picture really so gloomy 明暗的 The answer to the first question is really quite simple marriage is no longer the necessity it once was The institution of marriage has been based for years partly on economic need Women used to be economically dependent on their husbands as they usually didn t have jobs outside the home But with the rising number of women in well paying jobs this i a no longer the case so they don t feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage In answer to the second question the outlook may not be as pessimistic 悲观的 as it seems While the rate of divorce has risen the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen ver t much so marriage is still quite popular In addition to this many couples now simply live together and don t bother to marry These couples are effectively married but they do not appear in either the marriage or divorce statistics In fact more than 50 offtrst marriages survive So is marriage really an outdated institution The fact that most people still get married indicates that it isn t And it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people they suffer less from stress and its consequences such as heart problems and married men generally consider themselves more dontented tfian their single counterparts Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage and apply it to all of our relationships 41 Which of the following is true about the marriage in the United States today A Divorce leads to the breakup of the family B More than half of the married couples get divorced C American people marry more than four times D More and more people are getting divorced 42 What does this is no longer the case in paragraph 2 mean A Women are not economically dependant any more B It is not necessar t to get married any more C Women do not need a husband anylonger D Many wives do well paying jobs outside home now 43 Why is the outlook of marriage riot as hopeiess as it appears A Many people stil like to get married B The rate of divorce has actually decreased C Over 60 of the marriages continue to exist D The statistics of divorce is reliable 44 How do most men feelin their marriage life A They feel much stronger than before B They don t feel as lonely as before C They su 忏 er more than before D They feel more satisfied than being singte 45 Which of the following about marriage is NOT mentioned in the passage A It is important to discover what makes a marriage successful B Marriage has long been partly an economic need C It is a fact that most people choose to get married D Many people went abroad after divorce 第第 5 5 部分部分 补全短文 第 46 50 题 每题 2 分 共 10 分 下面的短文有 5 处空白 短文后有 6 个句子 其中 5 个取自短文 请根据短文内容将其分别放回原有 位置 以恢复文章原貌 一 Some
