creative1 1 or we arent,without much of a middle ground.Fmjust not a creative person!a frustrated student might say in art class,while another mightblame her talent at painting for her difficulties in math,giving a comment such as JTm veryright-brained.Dr.Pillay,a tech entrepreneur and an assistant professor at Harvard University,has beenchallenging these ideas.He believes that the key to unlocking your creative potential is toignore the traditional advice that urges you to believe in yourself.1 In fact,you should do theopposite:Believe you are someone else.Dr.Pillay points to a 20 16 study demonstrating the impact of stereotypes on onesbehavior;The authors,educational psychologists Denis Dumas and Kevin Dunbar,dividedtheir college student subjects into three groups,instructing the members of one to think ofthemselves as romantic poets and the members of another to imagine they were seriouslibrarians（the third group was the control）.The researchers then presented all theparticipants with ten ordinary objects,including a fork,a carrot,and a pair of pants,and askedthem to come up with as many different uses as possible for each one.Those who were askedto imagine themselves as romantic poets came up with the widest range of ideas,whereasthose in the serious-librarian group had the fewest.Meanwhile,the researchers found onlysmall differences in students creativity levels across academic majors.These results suggest that creativity is not a fixed individual characteristic but amalleable product of context and perspective,as long as he or she feels like a creative person.Dr.Pillay argues that,besides identifying yourself as creative,taking the bold,creative step ofimagining you are somebody else is even more powerful.So,wish you were more creative?Just pretend!1.According to the passage,who is more likely to unlock his creative potential?A.An art major who always believes in himself.B.A math major who has excellent academic

NewJersey-based company,called Terracycle,has taken on the challenge,and has come up with away to recycle millions of cigarette ends and turn them into industrial plastic products.Its aimis to recycle things that people normally consider impossible to reuse.Obviously it would be even better for the environment if everyone just stopped smokingbut the statistics show that although there has been an increase in anti-smoking ads andposters,between 20 0 0 and 20 14.global sales of cigarettes increased by 8 percent,and a wholelot of those cigarette ends ended up as trash:Since most of our litter eventually ends up inwaterways,cigarette ends can surely pollute the surrounding environment.It only takes asingle cigarette end to pollute a liter of water,“Temacycle founder,Tom Swak,said.“Animals can also mistake cigarette ends littered for food.”So how do you go about turning all those poisonous ends into something useful?Terracycle does this by first breaking them down into separate parts.They mix the remainingmaterials,such as the tobacco and the paper,with other kinds of rubbish,and use it onnon-agricultural land,such as golf courses.The filters（过 滤 口 绪）are a little harder.To recyclethese.Terracycle first makes them clean and cuts them into small pieces,and then combinesthem with other recycled materials,making them into liquid for industrial plastic products.Theyre now also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest of the 80 percent ofhousehold waste that currently cant be recycled,such as chocolate packaging,pens,andmobile phones.The goal is to use the latest research to find a way to stop so much wasteending up in landfills,and then get companies to provide money fbr the process.And now,itworks well.“We havent found anything that we cant recycle,“communications director ofTerracycle,Albe Zakes,said.But with the amount and varieties of packaging and litter in theworld,we are always looking fbr new waste streams to address.”9.What does Terracycle intend to do?A.Search for recyclable materials for use.B.Deal with as many cigarette ends as possible.C.Produce new kinds of industrial plastic products.D.Recycle what used to be considered
