Have you ever made contact with the creative spirit, that certain something hard to describe, but full of good—and sometimes great—ideas? It is more than an occasional great thought. When we feel the moving of the creative spirit, it brings to life a style of being: a lifetime filled with the desire to invent, to explore new ways of doing things, and to turn dreams into reality.

That flash of inspiration is the final moment of a process marked by unique stages—the basic steps in creative problem-solving. The first stage is preparation, when you look for any information that might be important. It's when you let your imagination run free.

But one barrier(障礙) is the inside voice of judgment that locks up our creative spirit within the limits of what we think acceptable. It's the voice that whispers to you, "They'll think I'm foolish," or "That will never work." But we can learn to recognize this voice of judgment and have the courage to discount its unhelpful advice.

Once you have thought about all the relevant(相關(guān)的) pieces and pushed your mind to the limits, you can let the problem remain and take in all you have gathered. It's a stage when much of what goes on occurs outside your focused awareness. As the saying goes, "You sleep on it."

We are more open to creative thoughts from the unknowing mind when we are not really thinking of anything. That is why daydreams are so useful in the search for creativity. Anytime you can just daydream and relax is useful in the creative process: a shower, long drives, a quiet walk, etc.

With luck, daydreaming will lead to a light turning on above your head, when all of a sudden the answer will come to you as if from nowhere. This is the popular stage—the one that usually gets all the glory and attention, the moment that people sweat and long for, the feeling "This is it!" But the thought alone is still not a creative act. The final stage is translation, when you take your creative thought and transform it into action; it becomes useful to you and others.

1.In Paragraph 1, “the moving of the creative spirit” probably means ________.

A. preparation B. explorationC. problem-solvingD. inspiration

2.According to the article, what keeps us from creativity?

A. Having less information to form a good idea.

B. Relying on others during the creative process.

C. Caring about other people’s opinions about us.

D. Thinking about too many ideas at the same time.

3.What can we learn from the fifth paragraph?

A. The unknowing mind is very difficult for us to understand.

B. Creativity arrives when we aren’t focused on any one thing.

C. Daydreaming is useless and has nothing to do with creativity.

D. Showers, long drives and quiet walk are good for our bodies.

4.When does creativity become useful to us and others?

A. When thought is turned into action.

B. When people understand our ideas.

C. When the popular stage is reached.

D. When we think “This is it!”.

5.Which of the following would the author probably support?

A. The creative spirit means an occasional great thought.

B. Others’ voice of judgment allows us to ignore barriers.

C. Creative problem-solving calls for barrier-free imagination.

D. Daydreaming is sure to bring a sudden answer to a problem.

下面文章中有5處需要添加小標(biāo)題。請(qǐng)從以下選項(xiàng)（A、B、C、D、E和F）中選出符合各段意思的小標(biāo)題。選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)是多余選項(xiàng)。

D. Practice self-acceptance

Steps to True Happiness

Happiness comes from within. Being content requires living from within, putting more focus on personal values, and loving others. Happiness is more about internal qualities than external stuff. It’s more about inclusion than separation. Happiness isn’t something you search for or go after, it’s a moment by moment decision you make.

Anyone can become a happier person because happiness begets（引發(fā)）happiness. However it does take a lot of effort.

Read on for steps to carry out your personal happiness plan:

1.__________________

Happiness is an intentional choice. Each morning tell yourself, “I’m happy today.” Take daily responsibility for your happiness quotient （指數(shù)）. Choose to enjoy the next 24 hours, then the next, and the next. If nothing else ever changes in your life, know that in spite of everything, you can be happy. Make a commitment to happiness, be happy now.

2.__________________

Honor your uniqueness. Dance with your spirit and reach for the stars. Shine your light on your quirkiness (突變). Appreciate your magnificent talent and enormous wisdom, and use them to make the world a better place.

Stop chasing happiness. When you stop pursuing about a better job, a bigger home, a smaller body, joy bubbles to the surface. Happiness isn’t something you chase or become in a distant future. Happiness is all that you are right now.

3.___________________

The best investment (投資) you can make is in the relationships you have with your family, friends, colleagues, and community. Communicate. Spend time together. Join in volunteering, a feel-good activity. As you enrich the lives of others you enrich your own. Strong connections to others increase your well-being. Chasing happiness causes you to miss the happiness right under your nose. Extend love to others today. Notice how good it makes you feel.

4.___________________

Learning to be grateful throughout the day will change the way you interpret life. It changes your brain and opens your heart. Writing down your gratitude list helps solidify it in your brain. The more you express gratitude, the more you find to be grateful for.

Happiness isn’t acquiring something or in some future event. Gratitude is found in the present moment and then happiness follows.

5.___________________

Forgiveness is giving up being a victim. It turns “poor me” into “free me”. You create your own suffering, stress, and misery by your need to be right. When you hold on to resentment, you miss the present by reliving stories of the past. Happiness dwells in a loving heart and a healed past. Decide to see things differently. Don’t worry about how to forgive. Instead, choose to be a forgiving person.
