Most of us would like to be both (1)_____ and creative. Why was Thomas Edison able to invent so many things? Was he simply more intelligent than most people? Did he spend long hours toiling away in private? Surprisingly, when Edison was a young boy, his teacher told him he was too (2)_____ to learn anything. Other famous people whose creative genius went (3)_____ when they were young include Walt Disney, who was fired from a newspaper job because he did not have any good ideas and Enrico Caruso, whose music teacher told him that his (4)_____ was terrible.
Disney, Edison and Caruso were intelligent and creative men; (5)_____, experts on creativity believe that intelligence is not the same as creativity. Creativity is the ability to think about something in new and unusual ways, and to (6)_____ out unique solutions to problems. When creative people are asked what enables them to solve problems in new ways, they say that the ability to find affinities between (7)_____ unrelated elements plays a key role. They also say that they have the time and independence in a(an) (8)_____ setting to (9)_____ a wide range of possible solutions to a problem.

Momentary (17)_____ of insight, (18)_____ by images, make up a (19)_____ part of the creative ’process. At the heart of the creative process are ability and experience that (20)_____ an individual’s effort, often over the course of a lifetime.
选项
A、seemingly
B、actually
C、logically
D、barely
答案
A
解析
空白前affinities意为"相似性,联系",故此处语境意为:发现…没有联系的事物之间的相似性。可以看出,这里应该是说表面上没有联系的事物。故A项"seemingly(表面上地)"正确。actually实际上,事实上;logically理论上,逻辑上;barely仅仅,刚刚,几乎不能,这三项放在此处逻辑不通。
