第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

       阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

（A）

According to the dictionary definition of “create”, ordinary people are creative every day．To create means “to bring into being, to cause to exist”— something each of us does daily．

We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way．First this involves an awareness of our surroundings．It means using all of our senses to become aware of our world．This may be as simple as being aware of color and texture, as well as taste, when we plan a meal．Above all, it is the ability to notice things that others might miss．

A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things．If we believe the expression, “There is nothing new under the sun,” the creativity is remaking or recombining the old in new ways．For example, we might do this by finding a more effective way to study or a better way to arrange our furniture, or we might make a new combination of camera lenses and filters to create an unusual photograph．

A third part of creativity is the courage and drive to make use of our new ideas, to apply them to achieve some new results．To think up a new concept is one thing; to put the idea to work is another．

These three parts of creativity are involved in all the great works of genius, but they are also involved in many of our day-to-day activities．

       A．creativity demands genius

       B．creativity is connected with a deep insight （洞察力） to some extent

       C．creativity is to create something new and concrete

       D．to practise is the only way to cultivate one’s creativity

58．What does the author think about the relationship between a new thought and its being put into practice?

       A．It’s more difficult to create a new thought than to apply it in practice．

       B．To find a new thought will definitely lead to the production of a new thing．

       C．One may come up with a new thought, but whether or not to put it into practice all depends．

       D．A man with an excellent ability of practice can easily become an inventor．

59．The best title for this passage is ____．

       A．How to Cultivate One’s Creativity            B．What is Creativity?
