Passage 1
From James Moriarty to Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the idea of the evil genius has been a staple ofstorytelling.But is it true Or, to put the matter less starkly, is there a connection between creativityand dishonesty in real people who are not bent on world domination, as well as in fictionalsupervillains Writing in Psychological Science, Francesca Gino of Harvard University and Scott
Wiltermuth of the University of Southem California suggest that there is--and that cheating actuallyincreases creativity.
Dr Gino and Dr Wiltermuth tested the honesty of 153 volunteers with a task that involvedadding up numbers for a cash reward, which was presented in a way that seemed to them to allowthem to cheat undetected(though the researchers knew when they did).This was sandwichedbetween two tests for creativity, one of which was to work out how to fix a candle to a cardboardwall with a box of drawing pins, and the other a word-association test.This combination showed notonly that creative people cheat more, but also that cheating seems to encourage creativity--for thosewho cheated in the adding-up test were even better at word association than their candle-test resultspredicted.
That result was confirmed by a second set of experiments, in which some people were givenmany opportunities to cheat and others few.The crucial predictor of creativity, the researchers con-firmed, was the actual amount of cheating, not any propensity to cheat.
A third experiment tested the idea that this is because both creativity and dishonesty require, asit were, a flexible attitude to rules.In this experiment volunteers were asked about their attitude tobossy signs, such as "no cycling" and "no diving" notices, after being allowed to cheat (again, in away transparent to the experimenters) on a coin-tossing test.Cheats, it turned out, were less con-strained to obey such signs.
It is, it goes without saying, a long way from such acts of petty defiance to building a lair insidean extinct volcano and threatening Washington from it--or even to non-fictional acts of seriouscrime.But some sort of link exists, so this research does indeed suggest that Arthur Conan Doyleand Ian Fleming were on to something.
What does the underlined words "the other" in Paragraph 2 refer to
指代题。根据文章第二段第二句“This was sandwiched between two tests for creativity,oneof which was to work out how to fix a candle to a cardboard wall with a box of drawing pins,and the other a word,associationtest.”即统计现款奖金的数量测试是夹在两个创造力测试之间的,其中一个测试是如何用一盒图钉将蜡烛固定在纸板墙上面.另一个测试是文字联想测试。由此可知,“theother”是指测试。故选B。
在校长室,记者提出见识下实验班学生的成绩单,校长满足了记者的要求,拿出了该校学生的“八宝袋”——“成长记录袋”。“成长记录袋”是一种由学校统一制作的、可以体现学生综合素质的材料袋。袋内可以装学生的操行成绩单、期末考试试卷、平时考查成绩最高的试卷、最好的作文或周记、最满意的写字作业或英语口语录音、美术作业或创作画、小论文、小制作或其他获奖材料,甚至是学生自己、家长、教师认为可以反映学生素质提高的有关材料。简而言之,成长记录袋就是学生一个学期的大“成绩单”。它在年初发给学生,由学生自己保存,并整理本学年的有关材料,下学年初交给老师保存。这样,每位学生结业时就有五六袋足以证明自己的素质材料了。
