V. 阅读理解:
A
I entered high school having read hundreds of books. But I was not a good reader. Merely
bookish, I lacked a point of view when I read. Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I
searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, idea,
themes---anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers
suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a “complicated
idea” until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing
either its irony or its very complicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books
I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several
times.(How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books
over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?)
There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article
about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most
important books of Western Civilization”. “More than anything else in my life”. The professor
told the reporter with finality, “these books have made me all that I am.” That was the kind of
words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles.
Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato’s The Republic, for example, I
needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about.
However, with the special patience and superstition of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of
the text. And by the time I reached the last words, I persuaded myself that I had read The
Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.
1. On hearing the teacher’s suggestion of reading, the writer thought___________.
A. one must read as many books as possible
B. a student should not have a complicated idea
C. it was impossible for one to read two thousand books
D. students ought to make a list of the books they had read
2. While at high school , the writer __________.
A. had plans for reading
B. learned to educate himself
C. only read books over 100 pages
D. read only one book several times
3. The underlined phrases “with finality” in the second paragraph probably means
_____________.
A firmly B. clearly C. proudly D pleasantly
4. The writer’s purpose in mentioning The Republic is to _____________.
A. explain why it was included in the list
B. describe why he seriously crossed it off the list
C. show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understand
D prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word
5. The writer provides two book lists to____________.
A. show how he developed his point of view
B. tell his reading experience at high school
C. introduce the two persons’ reading methods
D. explain that he read many books at high school

What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like
the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is
intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to
them are still not clear.
We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the
mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is
particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents
should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children
are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone
a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.
Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some
psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child
is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very
positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You
are such a smart child.”
6. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _______ while
“dull” in the second paragraph means ________.
A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understanding
B. pretty and handsome; ordinary-looking
C. great and important; common
D. hopeful and helpful; careless
7. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ________ while an idiot is ________.
A. a normal person; a funny person
B. a strong person; a weak person
C. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded person
D. a famous person; an ordinary person
8. A person ________ is more likely to become a genius.
A. whose parents are clever
B. often thinking about difficult problems
C. often helped by his parents and teachers
D. born with a good brain and putting it into active use
9. It is better for parents ________.
A. to praise and encourage their children more often
B. to be hard on their children
C. to leave their children alone with nothing to do
D. to give their children as much help as possible
10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?
A. Parents play an important part in their children’s growth.
B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.
C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.
D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.

According to the dictionary definition of “ create” , ordinary people are creative everyday . To
create means to bring into being or to cause to exist –something each of us does daily .
We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way . First this involves
an awareness of our surroundings . It means using all of our sense to become aware of world .
This may be as simple as being aware of color and appearance , as well as taste , when we plan a
meal . Above all , it is the ability to notice things that others might miss .
A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things . If we believe the
expression “ There is nothing new under the sun”, the creativity is remaking or recombining the
old in new ways. For example we might do this by finding a better way to study or to arrange our
furniture , or we might make a new combination of camera lenses and filters(镜头和滤光器) 头
create an unusual photograph .
A third part of creativity is the courage and drive to make use of our new ideas , to apply them
to achieve some new results . To think up a new concept is one thing ; to
____________________is another .
These three parts of creativity are involved in all the great works of genius , but they are also
involved in many of our day-to-day activities .
