问题     According to the dictionary definition of "create", ordinary people are creative every day. To create something means "to bring it into being, to cause it 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 involves 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, texture and taste, when we prepare a meal. Above all, it is an ability to notice things that others might miss.
    The second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things. If we believe the expression "There is nothing new under the sun", 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.
    The third pail of creativity is the courage and drive to make use of our new ideas, and to apply them to achieve some new results. To think up a new idea is one thing; to put the idea into practice is another.
    These three parts of creativity are involved in all the great works of genius, but they are also involved in many of our day-to-day activities.
Which of the following activities is NOT a creative one according to the passage?

选项 A、To prepare a meal.
B、To arrange the furniture in a peculiar way.
C、To buy some books from a bookstore.
D、To write a letter with the computer.

答案C

解析 根据第二段第一句“We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way. ”和第二段倒数第二句“This may be as simple…when we prepare a meal. ”可知,每当我们以新的方式来看待或思考事物时,我们就是有创造力的,这种事可能同我们做饭时注意到了色泽、口感和味道一样简单,由此可推知,做一顿饭可以是有创造性的做法,所以A项是创造性活动;根据第三段最后两句“…creativity is remaking or recombining the old in new ways…a better way to arrange our furniture…”可知,创造力是以薪的方式重新制作或重新组合旧的事物,比如找到一种更好的方式来布置家具,所以B项是创造性活动,并且由此可推知,用电脑写信属于使用新的方法做传统的事情,所以D项也是创造性活动。C项(从书店买一些书)没有使新的东西产生,也没有采用新的方式,不属于创造性活动。故选C。
