B

Five years ago, when I taught artat a school in Seattle, I used
Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a termto find out something
about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys infront of each student,

and said:
”
Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have45 minutes
today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.
”


A few students hesitated to waited to see the rest of the
class would do. Several others checked theinstructions and made
something according to one of the model plans r group
built something out of their own imaginations.

Once I had a boy who workedexperimentally with Tinkertoys in his free
time. His constructions filled ashelf in the art classroom and a good part
of his bedroom at home. I wasdelighted at the presence of such a
student. Here was an exceptionally creativemind at work. His presence
meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant inclass whose
creativity would infect(
感染
) other students.

Encouraging this kind of thinkinghas a downside. I ran the risk of
losing those students who had a differentstyle of thinking. Without fail
one would declare,
”
But I
’
m just not creative.
”


“
Do you dream at night when you
’
reasleep?
”


“
Oh, sure.
”


“
So tell me one of your mostinteresting dreams.
”

The student would
tell something wildly in the sky or in a time machine
or growing three heads.
“
That
’
s prettycreative. Who does that for you?
”


“
Nobody. I do it.
”


“
Really-at night, when you
’
reasleep?
”



“
Sure.
”
zxx.k

“
Try doing it in the daytime, inclass, okay?
”

C
Reading can be a social activity. Think of thepeople who belong to book
groups. They choose books to read and then meet todiscuss them. Now,
the website turns the page on the traditional idea of
a book group.
Members go on the site and register the books theyown and would like
to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number tostick inside
the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping thatthe
book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new
readerwho finds it.

Bruce Pederson, the managingdirector of BookCrossing, says,
“
The
two things that change your life are thepeople you meet and books you
read. BookCrossing combines both.
”


Members leave books on parkbenches and buses, in train stations and
coffee shops. Whoever finds their bookwill go to the site and record
where they found it.

People who find a book can alsoleave a journal entry describing what
they thought of it. E-mails are then sentto the BookCrossing to keep

them updated about where their books have beenfound. Bruce peterson
says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keepinga book to gather
dust on a shelf at home. zxx.k

BookCrossing is part of a trendamong people who want to get back
to the
“
real
”

and not the virtual(
虚拟
). The site now has more than one
million members in more than one hundredthirty-five countries.

A. To explain what they are.
introduce BookCrossing.

D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.
10. What does the underlined word
“
it
”

adventure.
C.A public place.

11. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?

it safe in his bookcase.

A new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyageback
to life.
Frank Hurley
’
s pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedlyfirst-rate
photo- journalism---if they had been made last week. In fact, theywere
shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous
shipwreck(
海滩
), by a cameraman who had noreasonable expectation of
survival. Many of the images were stored in an icechest, under freezing
water, in the damaged wooden ship.

Theship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built
three-master that wasintended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small
crew of seamen andscientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore
of Antarctica
’
s WeddellSea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force
a passage by dog sled(
雪橇
) across the continent. Thejourney was

intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott
haddone. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but
had died withhis four companions on the march back.

Aswriter Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and
well-researched storyThe Endurance, adventuring was even then a
thoroughly commercial
’
s last journey, completed as be lay in
a tent dying of cold and hunger,caught the world
’
s imagination, and a
film made in his honor drew eton, a onetime British
merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100miles of the South Pole
in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage tomake money from
movie and still photography. Frank Hurley, a confident andgifted
Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make
theimages, most of which have never before been published.
13. What do we know about the photos takenby Hurley?
were made last week
showed undersea sceneries
were found by a cameraman
recorded a disastrous adventure
14. Who reached the South Pole firstaccording to the text?
Hurley
B. ErnestShackleton
Falcon Scott
