【题目】 Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinker toys（积木）as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinker toys in front of each student, and said,” Make something out of the Tinker toys. 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 Tinker toys in his free time. His creations 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 affect other students.
Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside, for I might lose 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?”
【1】The teacher used Tinker toys in class in order to .
A.make the lessons more excitingB.know more about the student
C.raise the students’ interest in artD.teach the students about toy design
【2】What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A.He was imaginative.B.He was active in class.
C.He preferred to study alone.D.He liked to help his teacher.
【3】What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.choiceB.difficultyC.faultD.power
【4】We can learn that .
A.most students just made something according to the model plans
B.the boy spent 45 minutes every day making a lot of creations
C.the boy’s creativity would affect other students forever
D.the student dreaming at night was also very creative.
【5】The best title for the passage may be
A.An Art ClassB.An Encouraging Teacher
C.Tinker ToysD.An Unexpected Teaching Assistant

【题目】 A material is what something is made of. There are 5 basic materials. Most things are made with these materials. Some things are made of metal. Some things are made of glass. Some things are made of wood. Some things are made of cloth. And some things are made of plastic.
There are some other materials. But they are not used as much as these 5 materials.
Let's talk about metal first. Metal is very heavy. And it is very hard and strong. It usually feels cool if you touch it. We use metal to make lots of things. We use it for forks and knives. We use it for keys. We use it for cars. We use it for these things because it is very strong.
Next, let's talk about glass. Glass is very smooth. It feels cool to touch. It is not as heavy as metal. It is hard. But it is not strong. It breaks very easily! Then why do we use it? We use it because it is clear! You can see through glass! That's why we use it for windows. That's also why we use it for glasses.
Now, let's talk about wood. Wood is lighter than metal and glass. It is not as strong as metal. But it is much stronger than glass. We use wood to make lots of things. Things made of wood are usually light and hard and strong. Chairs and tables are made of wood. Pencils are made of wood.
Now let's talk about cloth. Cloth is very light. It is much lighter than wood. And it is very soft. We use cloth to make lots of things. For example, it is used to make clothing. And it is used to make blankets.
Last, let's talk about plastic. Plastic is also very light. But it is different from cloth.
Sometimes it is soft. And sometimes it is hard. Plastic can be used to make thin plastic bags. These are light, soft, and strong. But plastic can also be used to make bicycle helmets. These are light, hard, and strong. A helmet and a bag seem different. But they are both made from plastic.
【1】Which sentence from the passage best describes the main idea?
A."We use cloth to make lots of things.”B."Metal is very heavy."
C."There are 5 basic materials."D."A helmet and a bag seem different."
