I love to start the day with a strong black coffee and couldnt wait to use it. I looked forward to the following mornings coffee making, knowing that I probably wouldnt smash (打碎) this plunger as easily as I had done so often in the past.But as I poured my first cup of coffee, the plunger spilled (洒出) all over the table. Thankfully no one was around to see my disappointed face! I kept trying, but each morning would see me wiping up the coffee. Then I realized that if I poured very slowly there would be no spilling.This was at first a very painful experience. My normal practice was to rush through breakfast so that I could get on with my day.But in time I learned not only to pour slowly but to enjoy the experience: the smell, the taste, and the stillness of a new day.It prompted (促使) me to reflect upon whether there were other areas of my life I was rushing through. Most of life, it seemed.I started to leave extra time to do even the most ordinary tasks. When shop owners would apologize for keeping me waiting, Id say, Not a problem, Im not in a hurry. Even hanging out washing became pleasurable when a couple of extra minutes of standing still and listening to the birds singing in the trees around me became part of my routine.Besides, one of my favorite experiences living in the inner city for many years was sitting on the front doorstep of our home spending time with strangers. We sat on the steps, each of us with a cup of coffee in our hands, listening to each others stories. It was one of the warmest things about living in a busy city. It was as if the world around us slowed to a pace (步伐) we could both handle.Stillness and quietness not only slow the pace of life, but also feed the soul, helping us to enjoy the worlds small pleasures.34. What was the authors life like before receiving the coffee plunger?A. Hurried.B. Relaxing.C. Simple.D. Disappointing.35. What does the word “This” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Dealing with the spilled coffee.B. Learning to use the new coffee plunger.C. Trying to pour coffee more slowly.D. Rushing through breakfast.36. What happened when the author changed her lifestyle?A. She had more time for important things.B. She found joy in ordinary tasks.C. She made friends with many shop owners.D. She had a better relationship with her family members.37. What is the main purpose of this article?A. To tell people how to live a meaningful and full life.B. To reflect on the meaning of living a slow-paced life.C. To show the importance of the gift from her daughter.D. To encourage readers to communicate more with strangers.【答案】34. A 35. C 36. B 37.

However, thats not always the case.While well-known figures like Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein did their most significant (重要的) work in their youth, famous American poet Robert Frost and English-born natural scientist Charles Darwin were known as late bloomers people whose talents were not noticeable until later in life.This idea of peaking at different times inspired new research from the United States. Many people believe that creativity is exclusively (独有地) associated (有联系的) with youth, but it really depends on what kind of creativity youre talking about, said Bruce Weinburg, a professor of economics at the University of Chicago and co-author of the study.According to the study, published earlier this month in the journal De Economist, there are two types of people: conceptual (概念的) and experimental thinkers.To reach this conclusion, researchers took the 31 previous winners of the Nobel Prize in economics and arranged them according to when they did their most significant work, to identify (识别) their creative peaks.Some peaked from ages 25-29. Classified as conceptual thinkers, these people think outside of the box, coming up with new ideas before they become used to the conventional way of doing things.The second creative peak came with economists in their 50s. These are experimental thinkers who have been in their field for a long time. This allows them to learn from errors and experiment with different processes, before eventually finding new solutions.Whether you hit your creative peak early or late in your career depends on whether you have a conceptual or experimental approach, said Weinburg. He added that their study isnt limited to economics, saying it can apply to other creative disciplines (知识领域). So if youre struggling to come up with new ideas, dont panic. Your creative peak may be yet to arrive.38. What did the study from the US find?A. Young people are not necessary more creative than the old people.B. Most people take a conceptual approach when thinking.C. Ones creative peak is related to their job type.D. Conceptual and experimental thinkers hit their peaks at different times.39. What does the underlined word conventional mean in context?A. Easy.B. Unusual.C. Traditional.D. Appropriate.40. What do we know about experimental thinkers?A. Their talents usually bloom in their 20s.B. They are good at doing experiments.C. They work out new methods based on experience.D. They are more successful than conceptual thinkers.41. What would Weinberg probably agree with?A. Its difficult to find ones talent in later years.B. More research needs to be done about creative peaks.C. Conceptual thinkers could be more successful in the art field.D. Experimental thinkers from other fields may be most successful in their 50s.【答案】38. D 39. C 40. C 41. D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了研究发现概念思考者和实验性思考者在不同时期达到顶峰。【38题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“Some peaked from ages 25-29.
