aboutwhoyouareandexpressthosethoughtsandfeelingstoothers（你可以尝试奶奶的派食

谱或种植一个香草园，把你对自己的想法和感受投入其中，并把这些想法和感受表达

给别人。）”可知，此处讲述如何进行创造性地表达自己，不需要你是毕加索，创造性

的表达机会是无穷无尽的。E项中的"theopportunitiesforcreativeexpression”和下文的

“expressthosethoughtsandfeelingstoothers”对应。E项：Buttheopportunitiesfor

creativeexpressionareendless.（但是创造性表达的机会是无穷无尽的。）符合语境。故选

Eo

③空处为段落主题句。根据下文“Sharesomething
