周周测二 七选五4 Passage 1(2017·河北省“五个一名校联盟”高三教学质量监测) How to Be Creative Most of us think that creativity is a quality belonging only to artists, writers, or dancers, rather than ourselves. __1__ The following tips are a great beginning for developing our creativity. 1．Get out of your comfort zone We eagerly accept the familiar and fear the unknown. Break out of your usual patterns and welcome creativity into your life. As stated earlier, the human brain was designed to recognize patterns. __2__ In fact, our comfort zone is nothing more than a collection of patterns. As we become more efficient at recognizing and using patterns, we rely less on creativity to find new paths. We should force ourselves out of our comfort zones and open up new possibilities. 2．Try different things If you always do what youve always done, youll always get what youve always got. We are creatures of habits and routines, and creativity hates routines. If you usually drive to work, take the subway for a few days. __3__ Interrupt your routine, experiment and try something new. New things are often creative, but the same old thing never is. 3．__4__ Having a great idea is not enough; you must work to make it a reality. Have you ever seen a new product and realized that you thought of the same thing long ago? Yet someone else is making money with “your” idea. __5__ The difference between a dreamer and a doer is action. Do whatever it takes to bring your ideas to life. If you can put them into practice, you are well on your way to improving your creativity in all areas of your life. A. Take action B. Seek several options C. Think from the other persons point of view. D. If you normally eat in the office, have lunch under a tree. E. The truth is that we are all born with the capacity to be creative. F. We continue to create patterns and routines for almost everything we do. G. We all have great ideas sometimes, but only a few people turn their ideas into realities.
