Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to
find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said: "Make
something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today — and 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week."
A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see what the rest of the class would do. Several others
checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built
something out of their own imaginations.
Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf
in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here
was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class
whose creativity would infect(感染)other students.
Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different
style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, "But I’m just not creative."
"Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?"
"Oh, sure."
2
"So tell me one of your most interesting dreams." The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying
in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. "That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?"
"Nobody. I do it."
"Really — at night, when you’re asleep?"
"Sure."
"Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?"
5. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to .
A. know more about the students B. make the lessons more exciting
C. raise the students’ interest in art D. teach the students about toy design
6. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. He liked to help his teacher. B. He preferred to study alone.
C. He was active in class. D. He was imaginative.
7. What does the underlined word "downside" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Mistake. B. Drawback.
C. Difficulty. D. Burden.
8. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?
A. To help them to see their creativity.
B. To find out about their sleeping habits.
C. To help them to improve their memory.
D. To find out about their ways of thinking.
C
Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read
and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website BookCrossing.com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book
group.
Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an
identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will
have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.
Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, "The two things that change your life are the
people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both."
