When I first learned to cook, I used recipes (菜谱) and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone else's way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child's bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them. In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others. In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors. Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies,books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination. Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not serve you. Then you can say, "I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors tragedies and declare victory, and know that they are cheering me on. .56. Imitation proves useful when you _. A. know you are uniqueB. lose the balance of life C. begin to learn something new D. get tired of routine practice 57. To avoid the bad result of imitation, we should _. A. forget daily fear and pain B. choose the right exampleC. ask others for decisions D. stay away from stars 58. Acording to the author, the world moves on because of those who are _. A. desperate to insurance others with their knowledgeB. ready to turn their original ideas into reality C. eager to discover what their ancestors did D. willing to accept others' ideas 59. What is the author's purpose in writing this passage? A. To highlight the importance of creativity.B. To criticize the characters of role models. C. To compare imitation with creation. D. To explain the meaning of success.B The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic skill. However, while today's educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful-both in school and in life. Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it's important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks-both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in , found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate. In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student's writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write. "Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active，which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas." Berninger said. “ Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(转换) those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen," the study said. Seeing the words in the "mind's eye" helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time."In our computer age, some people believe that we don't have to teach spelling because we have spell checks," she said. "But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won't have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer." 60. Berninger's study published in _. A. focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.B. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.C. found that good essays are made up of long sentences.D. discussed the importance of writing speed. 61. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling?A. Spelling improves one's memory of words.B. Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.D. Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas. 62. What does "mind's eye" in paragraph 5 mean?A. Window. B. Soul C. Picture. D. Imagination. 63. What conclusion could be drawn from the passage? A. Computers can help people with their choice of words. B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.C. Handwriting still has a place in today's classrooms.D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.CThere is no better way to enjoy Scottish traditions than going fishing and tasting a little bit of whisky威士忌 at a quiet place like the Inverlochy Castle.When Queen Victoria visited the castle in 1873 she wrote in her diary, “I never saw a lovelier spot. And she didnt even go fishing.Scotland is not easily defined. In certain moments, this quiet land of lakes and grasses and mountains changes before your very eyes.When evening gently sweeps the hillside into oranged light, the rivers ,teeming with fish,can turn into streams of gold .As you settle down with just a fishing pole and a basket on the bank of River Orchy, near the Inverlochy Castle, any frustration will float away as gently as the circling water. Its just you and purple, pink, white flowers, seeking a perfect harmony.If you are a new comer to fishing ,learning the basics from a fishing guide may leave you with a lifetimes fun.For many, fishing is more than a sport;it is an art.Scotland offers interesting places where you can rest after a long days fishing .Set against a wild mountain and hidden behind woodland,the beautif
