Here is how schools and parents can encourage this important skill in children.If Dick Drew had listened to his boss in 1925, we might not have a product that we now think of as of great importance: a new type of tape. Drew worked for the Minnesota Mining pany. At work he developed a kind of material strong enough to hold things together. But his boss told him not to think more about the idea. Finally, using his own time, Drew improved the tape, which now is used everywhere by many people. And his former pany learned from its mistake. Now it encourages people to spend 15 percent of their work time just thinking and developing new ideas.Creativity is not something one is just born with, nor is it necessarily a character of hign intelligence. Just because a person is highly intelligent does not mean that he uses it creatively. Creativity is the matter of using the resources one has to produce new ideas that are good for something.Unfortunately, schools have not tried to encourage creativity. With strong attention to test results and the development of reading, writing and mathematical skills, many educators give up creativity for correct answers. The result is that children can give back information but cant recognize ways to use it in new situations. They may know the rules correctly, but they are unable to use them to work out practical problems.It is important to give children choices. Form the earliest age, children should be allowed to make decisions and understand their results. Even if its choosing between two food items for lunch, decision-making helps thinking skills. As children grow older, parents should let their children decide how to use their time or spend their money, but not help them too much if they make the wrong decision. The child may have a hard time, but that is all right. This is because the most important character of creative people is a very strong desire to find a way out of trouble. 79. What did the pany where Dick Drew work learn from its mistake?A. They encouraged people to work a longer time.B. They discouraged people to think freely.C. They asked people to spend all their work time developing new ideas.D. They encouraged people to spend some of their work time considering and improving new ideas. 80. Creativity is something _.A. that people are born withB. that depends on intelligenceC. that is a way of using what one has learnt to work out new problemsD. that is not important 81. Why dont schools try to encourage creativity?A. They dont understand the importance of education.B. They dont want their students to make mistakes.C. They pay too much attention to examination marks and language skills.D. They think it more important to remember some information. 82. What should the parents do when their children decide how to spend their money?A. Try to help them as much as possibleB. Take no notice of whatever they doC. Help them if their decision is wrong, but not too muchD. Leave them as they areDSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily difficulties. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression（抑郁症）to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people protect themselves from illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to explain and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typica
