I've spent my adult life as a college professor teaching people how to think more creatively and use more of their brainpower. Interestingly, this lifetime passion was awakened by a casual contest when I was a child.
At a family picnic for employees of the company where my father worked, they held contests for the children. I was 13, full of enthusiasm and the spirit of competition, so I launched myself into the contests. The grand final, the handkerchief-throwing contest, I realize now, was not meant to demonstrate any real skill, but simply for laughs. But it stirred my love of thinking outside the box.
The host gave each of the dozen children a cloth handkerchief and told us the winner would be the one who threw it the farthest. The first throwers, the little ones, took mighty wind-ups, but when the cloth left their hands, it opened and flew to the ground a few inches in front of them. The next kids threw harder and harder, but with no better results. The older the children, the more the crowd laughed at the poor results.
It was obvious that using the same technique would not work. “Think out of the box!” I said to myself. Suppose I tied a rock inside the handkerchief? No, it was “throw a handkerchief,” not a rock and a handkerchief. When they inspected it, I'd be disqualified. The secret was not to throw harder but to keep the cloth from opening. I had to make the handkerchief fly like a rock. Like a rock! That was it! I began tying the handkerchief around itself to make it small and hard, like a rock.
When I approached the line, people were laughing already, anticipating a tall, big boy like me throwing it a few inches. I took a long wind-up, and the balled handkerchief rocketed off into the trees maybe 60 feet away.

四.段落续写(满分范文,150词左右)
Paragraph 1: “That's not fair,” a man said. “It's cheating.” Hearing the complaint, I remained calm and defended myself patiently. I explained clearly that I used nothing but the original handkerchief and never broke any contest rules. I just changed its shape to avoid the air resistance that had trapped other kids. After careful consideration, the host announced that my throw was valid, for the contest only required throwing a handkerchief instead of limiting the throwing method. The crowd soon fell silent and burst into warm applause for my wisdom.
Paragraph 2: Inspired, the rest kids started to explore other ways to throw farther. Some folded their handkerchiefs into strips while others twisted them into tight rolls. No one blindly used strength anymore. The originally silly and funny contest turned into a wonderful game of creative thinking. This small childhood experience planted a precious seed of innovation in my heart. It taught me that true progress never comes from blind effort, but from flexible and creative thinking, which has guided my teaching and life ever since.
