Discoveries in science and technology are thought by "untaught minds" to come in blinding flashes or as the result of dramatic accidents. Sir Alexander Fleming did not, as legend would have it, look at the mold on a piece of cheese and get the idea for penicillin there and then. He experimented with antibacterial substances for nine years before he made his discovery. Inventions and innovations almost always come out of laborious trial and error. Innovation is like soccer; even the best players miss the goal and have their shots blocked much more frequently than they score.
The point is that the players who score most are the ones who take most shots at the goal and so it goes with innovation in any field of activity. The prime difference between innovators and others is one of approach. Everybody gets ideas, but innovators work consciously on theirs, and they follow them through until they prove practicable or otherwise. What ordinary people see as fanciful abstractions, professional innovators see as solid possibilities.
"Creative thinking may mean simply the realization that there’s no particular virtue in doing things the way they have always been done," wrote Rudolph Flesch, a language authority, this accounts for our reaction to seemingly simple innovations like plastic garbage bags and suitcases on wheels that make life more convenient: "How come nobody thought of that before?"
The creative approach begins with the proposition that nothing is as it appears. Innovators will not accept that there is only one way to do anything. Faced with getting from A to B, the average person will automatically set out on the best-known and apparently simplest route. The innovators will search for alternate courses, which may prove easier in the long run and are bound to be more interesting and challenging even if they lead to dead ends.
Highly creative individuals really do march to a different drummer.
The author quotes Rudolph Flesch in Paragraph 3 because______.
选项
A、Rudolph Flesch is the best-known expert in the study of human creativity
B、the quotation strengthens the assertion that creative individuals look for new ways of doing things
C、the reader is familiar with Rudolph Flesch’s point of view
D、the quotation adds a new idea to the information previously presented
答案
B
解析
日常生活中有许多小发明,这些小发明给人们的生活带来了极大的便利。但是“为什么以前没人想到呢?”其意义在于说明,有些人能想到这些小发明就是因为他们勇于进行创造性思维,喜欢从新的角度去考虑问题,而不是按老方法去做事。这和B项一致。A项与文章内容不符。C项文章未提。D项与文章内容不符,因为文章并无新观点出现。
