Everyone has imagination, but most of us，once we become adults, forget how to access it. Creativity isnt always connected with great wor
20、ks 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 t
21、rying 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
22、 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 dont exist. You have as much time/space/money，etc. as you want. Think about your
23、goal and the new possibilities. If，for example，your goal is to learn to ski, 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
24、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 cant she get it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? What
25、 does she dream about? If your goal involves other people, put yourself “in their shoes”. The best fishermen think like fish! 35According to the passage, when we become adults, _ . A. most of us are no longer creative B. we can still learn to be more creative C. we are not as imaginative as children
26、 D. we are unwilling to be creative 36The second technique suggests that you just imagine_. A. setting a goal is as simple as skiing B. new possibilities will soon appear C. December and January are the best months for skiing. D. you have every resource to achieve your goal 37The phrase “put yoursel
27、f in their shoes” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _ . A. dress yourself like them B. think as they would C. do as they ask you to D. put on their shoes 38We learn from the third technique that a good salesman should ask himself “ _ ?”. A. what do I usually do B. what did my boss tell me to d
28、o C. what are my customers needs D. how should I sell my products CWatching some children trying to catch butterflies one hot August afternoon, I was reminded of an incident in my own childhood. When I was a boy of 12 in South Carolina, something happened to me that cured me forever of wanting to pu
29、t any wild creature in a cage.We lived on the edge of a wood, and every evening at dusk the mockingbirds would come and rest in the tree and sing. There isnt a musical instrument made by man that can produce a more beautiful sound than the song of the mockingbird.I decided that I would catch a young
30、 bird and keep it in a cage and that way have my own private musician.I finally succeeded in catching one and put it in a cage. At first, in its fright at being captured, the bird fluttered about the cage, but eventually it settled down in its new home. I felt very pleased with myself and looked for
31、ward to some beautiful singing from my tiny musician.I had left the cage out on our back porch（门廊）, and on the second day of the birds captivity my new pets mother flew to the cage with food in her mouth . The baby bird ate everything she brought to it. I was pleased to see this. Certainly the mothe
32、r knew better than I how to feed her baby.The following morning when I went to see how my captive was doing, I discovered it on the floor of the cage, dead. I was shocked! What had happened? I had taken excellent care of my little bird, or at least I thought so. Arthur Wayne, the famous ornithologis
33、t, happened to be visiting my father at the time and, hearing me crying over the death of my bird, explained what had occurred: “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poison berries. She thinks it better for her young to die than to live in captivity.”Never since
34、 then have I caught any living creature and put it in a cage. All living creatures have a right to live free.39. The boy caught a mockingbird because_.

37、 decisionslike whether to cut class or try cigarettes. Making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people get involved and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even harder. People who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers. When they try to influence how you
38、 act, to get you to do something, its called peer pressure.Peers can have a positive influence on each other.

39、eading it. These are examples of how peers positively influence each other.Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them; your soccer friend might try to convince you to be mean to another player and never pass hi
40、m the ball.It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.Youve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.” Pe
41、er pressure is a big reason why they say this.
