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 45minutes each day for the rest of the week."

A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see 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."

"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.

The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, or worry. Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable; therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap(间隙)with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a

person's needs.

Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some

traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and

suddenly stops, what maybe implied(暗示) is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for reflection.

Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority.

Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient's silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily. A nurse who understands the healing(治愈) value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures.

What does the author say about silence in conversations?

A．	It implies anger.
B．	It promotes friendship.
C．	It is culture-specific.
D．	It is content-based.

Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought?

A．	The Chinese.
B．	The French.
C．	The Mexicans.
D．	The Russians.

What does the author advise nurses to do about silence?

A．	Let it continue as the patient pleases.
B．	Break it while treating patients.
C．	Evaluate its harm to patients.
D．	Make use of its healing effects.

What may be the best title for the text?

A．	Sound and Silence
B．	What It Means to Be Silent
C．	Silence to Native Americans
D．	Speech Is Silver; Silence Is Gold

She just dropped everything. She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for mere-routed(改道)me through Newark and got me back to the UK even earlier than originally scheduled.
