However, research shows that it may hamper the development of their imagination, while boredom can give them opportunities to develop creativity.Boredom is often linked with loneliness, but a writer named Meera Syal said boredom had helped here in developing her mind. She told researchers about her childhood. Having few things todo, Syal often talked with her neighbors. She also tried to do things like learning to bake cakes. “But importantly, I Thought and wrote a lot, because I was bored,” Syal said. She kept a diary, filling here time with short stories and poems she made up.Grayson Perry, an artist, grew up in a family with little money.

Bored but free, he spent hours looking out of the window, watching the changing clouds and seasons. Perry filled up his free time with what he liked. He became creative, because he could think freely.Dr. Belton is an expert on the effects of emotions on learning. “Boredom could be an uncomfortable feeling,” she said. “But some young people cannot deal with that boredom creatively. So sometimes they may break a classroom window, or drive a car out for a mad race.”Usually, when children have nothing to do, they would turn on the TV, the computer, or the phone. Their time on these things has increased, yet they need to have time to think about their experiences through play or just watching the world around them.It is this kind of thinking that can inspire the imagination. On the other hand, the TV or phone may cut short the thinking process. That can be harmful to the development of creativity. “For developing the ability to be creative,” Dr. Belton advised, “perhaps we need to stand and stare, and stay off-line from time to time.”（1）What does the word “hamper” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

Test if the cane is dry by swinging(摆动) it in the air and making sure it doesnt break or bend.The fifth step is to attach the fishing line to the end of your fishing rod. The length of the fishing line should be as long as the rod itself, plus an extra half meter. You need to be careful when tying the fishing line to the pole. Dont tie it too tightly or too loosely. The final step is to attach the fishing hook and small weight at the end of the fishing line.At last, your fishing rod is ready to be used for fishing!（1）What does the underlined word “one” refer to in Paragraph 2?
