科目:高中英語 來源:山東省聊城市2010屆高三二模(英語) 題型:閱讀理解
The day before the deadline for this article,I had no clue what I was going to write about. I took my problem to the editor-in-chief, and.he said to me:“Don’t worry; you’re creative. ”
I’m not sure where the editor-in-chief reached the conclusion that I was “creative”. Maybe it was through the poems I wrote. Personally, I simply enjoy writing because it’s fun. There’s also the fact that I can’t draw or do anything else creatively, I’m equally sure that there are people in the boat on the other side who can make things look excellent, but can’t write a poem.
At this point you probably want to ask me what poetry and art have to do with engineering. For one, it makes you a more rounded person, making you a better engineer. More importantly, as an engineer, you will be faced with many problems every day. There are some that can be solved by consulting a textbook, but more often than not, you will need that thing in your brain to put together things in a completely original combination to solve the problem at hand.
Think of the wonderful things that creative engineers have done. Civil engineers have made the road more long-lasting so we don’t have to close them for repairs as often. Coming up with a new innovation (創(chuàng)新) is similar to writing a good poem. It’s not some-thing you plan to do. The critical moment comes unexpectedly in the middle of nowhere. You don’t think about what you’re doing, you simply do. After some mad struggling you take a look at the end product and say to yourself, “This is a masterpiece. ” This is perhaps the greatest personal satisfaction one can
experience.
So all you engineers out there get out and do something creative. I don’t care if it’s writing a poem or a computer program, just be natural and do something creative.
【小題1】This passage mainly deals with .
A.the creativity of engineers | B.the power of editor-in-chief |
C.engineering in general | D.a(chǎn) way of thinking |
A.show one is creative | B.make him happy |
C.bring him in lots of money | D.have an effect on one’s mental health |
A.find the solutions to problems | B.learn to write poetry |
C.be courageous in face of challenges | D.get along well with others |
A.logically developed | B.strictly planned |
C.experience- based | D.naturally creative |
A.planning his work successfully | B.building things quickly |
C.finishing his work innovatively | D.writing good poems naturally |

What time is it?Most people are pretty accurate in their answer. And if you don’t know for sure, it’s very likely that you can find out. There may be a watch on your wrist; there may be a clock on the wall, desk, or computer screen; or maybe you’re riding in a car that has a clock in the dashboard .
Even if you don’t have a timepiece of some sort nearby, your body keeps its own beat. Humans have an internal clock that regulates (調(diào)節(jié)) the beating of our heart, the peace of our breathing, the discharge (排出) of chemicals within our bloodstream, and many other bodily functions.
Time is something from which we can’t escape. Even if we ignore it, it’s still going by, ticking away, second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour. So the main issue in using your time well is, “who’s in charge?” We can allow time to slip by and let it be our enemy. Or we can take control of it and make it our ally.
By taking control of how you spend your time, you’ll increase your chances of becoming a more successful student. Perhaps more importantly, the better you are at managing the time you devote to your studies, the more time you will have to spend on your outside interests.
The aim of time management is not to schedule every moment so we become slaves of a timetable that governs every waking moment of the day. Instead, the aim is to permit us to make informed choices as to how we use our time. Rather than letting the day go by, largely without our awareness, what we are going to discuss next can make us better able to control time for our own purposes.
【小題1】The underlined word “ally” in Para.3 most likely means somebody or something that is____________.
A.your slave and serves you | B.your supporter an helps you |
C.under your control and obeys you | D.under your influence and follows you |
A.could be regulated by a timepiece such as a clock or a watch |
B.could be managed by the internal clock by human bodies |
C.should be well managed for our own interest |
D.should be saved for outside interests |
A.how to keep up with the times | B.how to make up for lost time |
C.how to have a good time | D.how to make good use of time |
