Psychology professor K. Anders Ericsson claims that with enough practice, any of us can become experts. However, he is quick to add that this requires a specific kind of practice that Ericsson calls “deliberate practice”： that is, pushing beyond one's comfort zone and setting goals that are above one's current level of performance. He says he has yet to find the limits on being successful and he doesn't believe them to be real. Ericsson has looked primarily at artistic and athletic skills, but can these findings apply to creativity? Most experts agree that even if most people cannot hope to become creative geniuses, they can learn to become more creative through practice. Psychologists claim that there are actually two levels of creativity, which they refer to as “Big C” and “small c”. Big C creativity applies to breakthrough ideas, ones that may change the course of a field or even history. Small c creativity refers to everyday creative problem solving, like creating a new recipe or improving a process, which psychologists subdivide further into similar and different thinking. Similar thinking involves examining all the facts and arriving at a single solution. In contrast, different thinking involves coming up with many possible solutions. What most people think of as creativity generally involves different thinking and can be taught, practised and learnt. Even with practice, different thinking alone cannot make one creative, however. Scott Barry Kaufman, a cognitive psychologist, says that most creative people share one personality quality: openness to new experience. Since this quality and these processes have been identified, less creative people can try to emulate them. Normally, we tend to reproduce what we already know because creative ideas move us into unfamiliar territory involving risks and following the usual behaviors is comfortable. Moving outside of our comfort zone, engaging indeliberate practice and tolerating contradictory ideas, risk and failure are all things we can learn to do better. It is unlikely that doing so will transform any of us into creative geniuses, but it does have the potential to increase our level of creativity. 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了通过走出舒适区并不断练习，可以提高我们的创造力。 1．Why does Ericsson think he can't find the limits? A．No restrictions exist. B．Practice makes perfect. C．Each one can succeed. D．The goal is ambitious. 答案：A 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“He says he has yet ... doesn't believe them to be real.(他说他还没有找到成功的限制，他不相信这些限制是真的。)”可知，Ericsson (埃里克森)认为他找不到成功的限制是因为不存在任何限制。故选A。 2．Which of the following is an example of “small c”？ A．Settling in outer space. B．Building a plastic doghouse. C．Developing robots to look after the old. D．Explaining the theory of evolution in class. 答案：B 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Small c creativity ... different thinking.”可知，小创造力指的是日常创造性地解决问题，比如创造一个新配方或改进一个过程。由此可推知，建一个塑料狗窝是“small c”的例子，因为这是日常的创造性地解决问题。故选B。 3．What does the underlined word “emulate” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Justify. B．Limit. C．Copy. D．Assess. 答案：C 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词下文“we tend to reproduce ... the usual behaviors is comfortable”可知，我们倾向于复制已经知道的东西，遵循往常的行为是舒适的。由此可推知，画线词所在句的意思是“缺乏创造力的人可以尝试模仿他们”，画线词意为“模仿，复制”，copy与其同义。故选C。 4．What message does the author seem to convey in the text? A．We can learn to be more creative. B．Life is full of various challenges. C．It's better to take deliberate practice. D．Most can become creative geniuses. 答案：A 解析：主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲的是走出舒适区并加以练习，可以提高创造力，即我们可以学习更有创造力。故选A。 Ⅲ　语法填空 Mary will never forget the moment when she saw her lovely baby for the first time.
