Schools should builda free environment and offer support for teachers and students toimplement their ideas. Teachers should teach according to students’ aptitude and pay attention to students’ true needs. Students should figure out what their interests are and try to realize what they really want to do.2) I believe that creativity is not a state of being, but, rather, is apersonal characteristic on a continuum from low to high. You can move your creativity up the scale by nurturing it. Furthermore, creative activity isn’t only the creation of art. Everyon e who has ever found a solution to a problem has employed creativity. Most of the time, these efforts don’t require high levels of creativity. People high on the continuum of creativity have learned to take an active role in developing it by constantly finding out problems for further exploration. They routinely exercise their creativity. The key is that they keep working even when they feel that they will never find a solution. The true magic in creativity lies in the fact that the solutions do come.Language in Use4.•1) genuine•2) discipline•3) facilitate•4) talents•5) motivate •6) appetite•7) dynamic •8) acquires •9) flourished•10) ambition5.•1) admitted to •2) working on•3) pass through •4) thrown out•5) end up•6) do with6.• a packet of cigarettes (一包烟) •1) a body of•2) a block of•3) a chain of•4) a ray of•5) a gust of•6) a mountain of•7) a herd of•8) a string of •9) a bunch of•10) a packet of7.•1) easy-going•2) heart-broken •3) self-confident•4) poverty-stricken •5) up-to-date•6) narrow-minded•7) long-distance•8) well-educated8.Reference translation1) 我认为创造性是获得有价值的创意的过程。

Exercise 26) iPad — a line of tablet computers— is designed and marketed by the Apple company.Exercise 3SampleThe Meaning of CuriosityCuriosity is defined as a quality related to inquisitive thinking such as exploration, investigation, and learning. To me, curiosity is a hunger to explore and a delight in discovering. When we are curious, we approach the world with a child-like habit of poking, prodding and asking questions. We are attracted to new experiences. Rather than pursuing an agenda or a desired set of answers, we follow our questions where they lead. Curiosity lets us really listen to other people because we want to know who they are. We open ourselves up to the knowledge and experience they can share with us. We also expect to have discoveries of our own to share. Curiosity makes us interested in a broad range of information about the world around us. We learn for the joy of obtaining new knowledge. We will never know everything there is to know, but with our curiosity, we have learned so much.党费使用范围：根据中共中央组织部《关于中国共产党党费收缴、使用和管理的规定》，党费必须用于党的活动，主要作为党员教育经费的补充，其具体使用范围包括：(一）培训党员。
