Read the post from Paul on the "Answers 4U"website.
Hello everyone,
I'm studying journalism in university.In the first term,everyone has to do a course called
"Creative Thinking and Writing".At first,I thought it wouldn't be a problem-but now I'm
really anxious because I'm not a creative person at all!I'm scared that I'm going to look stupid
and I won't pass the course,or else I'll only get through it with great difficulty.
Can anyone help me?Some tips on being creative would be good.
Thanks a lot.
Paul
Read what Sarah writes in reply to Paul.
Hi Paul.
I read your post and can completely relate to it.I've been in exactly the same situation-I
even did a journalism course,just like you.So here are my thoughts.
You say "I'm not a creative person".Look-everyone's creative.If you tell yourself you'
re not creative,you'll easily start to believe it.So,the first thing to do is:stop thinking like
that.People sometimes talk about "thinking outside the box".Actually,the box is the way we'
3
ve been brought up to see problems.A central difficulty in our ability to think outside the box is
that we must always have a "right"answer,which limits creative thinking.So,try to stop seeing
things as“right'”or“wrong”.
Another problem is that we often find faults with our own ideas before we give them a chance
to grow.While you're thinking,just try to brainstorm ideas in an enjoyable way-then choose
the best ideas later.
And don't worry about looking stupid.If you try an idea and other people laugh at your
idea,that's their problem,not yours.Try to look at the course as a way to have fun.Work hard,
don't hold yourself back,do everything with great interest,and you'll be fine.
Anyway,enough from me.I hope these ideas help.
Sarah

答案与逐题解析
正确答案:21-23BDA
21.B (He considers himself not creative.)
考点:细节理解题
语境逻辑:Paul在帖子中明确提到“but now I'm really anxious because I'm not a creative
person at all!”,表明他认为自己没有创造力,这是他的核心困扰。
8
选项辨析:A选项“担心职业生涯”文中未提及;C选项“理解事物有困难”无依据:D选项
“无论多努力都会挂科”与原文“scared that I'm going to look stupid and I won't pass”不
符,Paul是担心挂科,而非“无论如何都会挂科”。只有B符合原文表述。
22.D(She thinks people should think freely without fear of judgement.
考点:推理判断题
语境逻辑:Sarah建议“stop seeing things as‘right'or‘wrong'”“try to brainstorm ideas
in an enjoyable way-then choose the best ideas later""don't worry about looking stupid...
that's their problem,not yours”,强调自由思考、不因他人评价而自我设限。
选项辨析:A选项“不理解Paul为何害怕”与“can completely relate to it”矛盾;B选项“认
为每个问题都有正确答案”与“stop seeing things as‘right'or‘wrong'”相悖;C选项“认为
人们应经常反思自己的想法”与“find faults with our own ideas before we give them a chance
to grow”的否定态度不符。D选项“应自由思考,不怕评判”符合Sarah的建议。
23.A (Paul and Sarah are strangers)
考点:推理判断题
语境逻辑:Paul在“Answers4U”网站发帖求助,Sarah以“Hi Paul,,I read your post”回应,
两人通过网络平台交流,未提及是同学或同乡,且Sarah说“I've been in exactly the same
situation一I even did a journalism course”,仅表明有相似经历,未体现相同想法或认识。
选项辨析:B选项“有相同想法”错误,Paul认为自己没创造力,Sarah认为“everyone's
creative”;C选项“大学同学”和D选项“来自同一地方”均无原文依据。A选项“陌生人”
符合网络求助与回应的情境。
