Passage 2

Taylor Swift, the seven-time Grammy winner, is known for her articulate lyrics, so there wasnothing surprising about her writing a long column for The Wall Street Journal about the future ofthe music industry. Yet there′ s reason to doubt the optimism of what she had to say "This moment in music is so exciting because the creative avenues an artist can explore arelimitless," Swift wrote."In this moment in music, stepping out of your comfort zone is rewarded,and sonic evolution is not only accepted ... it is celebrated. The only real risk is being too afraid totake a risk at all."

That′s hard to reconcile with Nielsen′s mid-year U.S. music report, which showed a 15percent year-on-year drop in album sales and a 13 percent decline in digital track sales. This couldbe the 2013 story all over again, in which streaming services cannibalize their growth from digitaldownloads, whose numbers dropped for the first time ever last year, except that even includingstreams, album sales are down 3.3 percent so far in 2014. Streaming has grown even more than it didlast year,42 percent compared to 32 percent, but has failed to make up for a general loss of interestin music.

Consider this: in 2014 to date, Americans purchased 593.6 million digital tracks and heard 70.3million video and audio streams for a sum total of 663.9 million. In the comparable period of 2013,the total came to 731.7 million.

Swift, one of the few artists able to pull off stadium tours, believes it′s all about quality.

"People are still buying albums, but now they′ re buying just a few of them," she wrote. "They arebuying only the ones that hit them like an arrow through the heart."

In 2000, album sales peaked at 785 million. Last year, they were down to 415.3 million. Swiftis right, but for many of the artists whose albums pierce hearts like arrows, it′s too late. Sales ofvinyl albums have increased 40.4 percent so far this year, according to Nielsen, and the top-

本题解析：

推断题。本题可以使用排除法。A项与C项说的是现在音乐市场的行情。B项歪曲了文中作者要表达的意思．而且很明显黑胶唱片并不是专为四十岁以上的人欣赏的。D项“怀旧唱片能动人心弦”．根据倒数第三段中介绍的以前发行唱片的步骤，可以看出当时的音乐是精心制作的，而且音乐制作人还会冒险去做创新．可见当时的音乐动人心弦的理由。故选D。

指代题。根据第七段第一句“When，like me，you’re over 40 and you believe the music industry has been in decline since in 1993(the year Nirvana released in Utero)，it’s easy to criticize the music taste of‘the kidsthese days．’a term eventhe 23-year old Swift uses．"可知现在的音乐市场不景气．很容易被人认为是由于现在的孩子对音乐的喜好与作者那时代的人不一样。所以第八段中“The way the music industry works now may have some thing to do with that．”中的that指代的就是孩子的音乐喜好(kid’s music taste)。

Passage 1

In the field of psychology, there has long been a certain haziness surrounding the definition ofcreativity, an I-know-it-when-I-see-it attitude that has eluded a precise formulation. During ourconversation, Mark Beeman, a cognitive neuroscientist at Northwestern University, told me that heused to be reluctant to tell people what his area of study was, for fear of being dismissed ormisunderstood. What, for instance, crosses your mind when you think of creativity Well, we knowthat someone is creative if he produces new things or has new ideas. And yet, as John Kounios, apsychologist at Drexel University who collaborates frequently with Beeman, points out, that view iswrong, or at least not entirely right. "Creativity is the process, not the product," he says.

To illustrate, Beeman offers an example. Imagine someone who has never used or seen apaperclip and is struggling to keep a bunch of papers together. Then the person comes up with a newway of bending a stiff wire to hold the papers in place. "That was very creative," Beeman says. Onthe flip side, if someone works in a new field--Beeman gives the example of nanotechnology--anything that he produces may be considered inherently "creative." But was the act of producing itactually creative As Beeman put it,"Not all artists are creative. And some accountants are verycreative."

Insight, however, has proved less difficult to define and to study. Because it arrives at a specificmoment in time, you can isolate it, examine it, and analyze its characteristics. "Insight is only onepart of creativity," Beeman says."But we can measure it. We have a temporal marker thatsomething just happened in the brain. I′d never say that′s all of creativity, but it′s a central,identifiable component." When scientists examine insight in the lab, they are looking at what typesof attention and thought processes lead to that moment of synthesis: If you are trying to facilitate abreakthrough, are there methods you c

正确答案：D

本题解析：

主旨题。文章前两段主要讲了creativity的定义。第三段指出insight是creativity的核心组成部分：虽然creativity不容易理解。但insight比较容易定义和研究。第四段描述了一个实验。实验目的是发现attention和insight之间的关系。第五段指出实验结果．即不同类型的attention能够影响insight，这给了想成为有创造力的人(would．be Creative minds)一个重大的启示。由此可以推断，attention能够影响insight，从而产生creativity。可见文章从探讨creativity的定义．到研究insight，归根到底是想发现怎样成为有创造力的人。D项Where Do Creativity Moments Come作为本文的标题最恰当。

词义题。根据第一段“In the field of psychology，there has long been a certain hazinesssurrounding the definition of creativity，an I-know-it-when-I-see-it attitude that has eluded a precise formulation．”可知，在心理学领域．“创造性”一直没有形成准确的定义。大家所持的态度就是“当我看到创造力的时候，我就知道什么是创造力”，以这种态度避开了对创造力定义的精确化。既然是避开了精确化，那么当然就是模糊不清的。即长期以来人们对于创造力的定义一直处于模糊或朦胧的状态。vagueness的意思是“含糊”，与haziness的意思最接近。故选B。
