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 includes 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(质地),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 ask for them to achieve some new results. To think up a new idea is one thing; to put the idea to work is another.
These three parts of creativity are included in all the great works of geniuses, but they are also included in many of our day-to-day activities.

小题3:The best title for this passage is__________.

C．The Importance of Creativity	D．Creativity, a Not Faraway Thing

答案

小题1:A
小题2:D
小题3:B

解析

小题1:A 根据短文第二段中的 “There is nothing new under the sun, the creativity is remaking or recombining(***) the old in new ways.”此句意为：世界上本来就没有什么新鲜的事，创造力就是用新的方法重做或***旧的东西。以及后文“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.”可见“There is nothing new under the sun”其实暗含着新的东西只有在最早期的基础上创造出来的。故应选A.
小题2:D 根据短文倒数第二段中的最后一句“To think up a new idea is one thing; to put the idea to work is another.”可知，想到一个新的想法是一回事，而实现这种想法又是另一回事。故选项D正确。
小题3:B 这篇短文主要论述什么叫创造力，并且进行了分类。很显然选项B为最佳答案。
