24、The Internet is full of false information. It is important for us all to avoid being fooled by such information. Here are three examples of Internethoaxes.

On his website, a man by the name of Tony has asked for money to save the life of a pretty little rabbit named Toby that he saved from under his house. A cat must have attacked the rabbit, the man said, so he took it in. he gave Toby loving care and nursed him back to health. There is a very cruel point, however. If the man doesn’t receive enough money, he will eat poor little Toby. (Don’t worry, though. Remember, it’s just a hoax!)

While the streets of New Orleans, the USA, were still flooded after a terrible hurricane (飓风), a frightening e-mail was sent around the Internet. It included a photograph of a large crocodile(鳄鱼) over five meters long. According to the message, it had been swimming around the flooded city eating people. It was later discovered that the photographs of the crocodile were of one that was caught in the Congo (刚果) years before.

The following e-mail hoax takes in many people. It says that a large British company will pay you to send their e-mail to as many people as possible. For every person that you send the e-mail to, it promises you will receive $5.00; for every person that you send it to that sends it to someone else, you’ll get $3.00; and for every third person that receives it, you will be paid $1.00. To make it even more believable, the sender says that at first he thought it was a hoax, but the company soon sent him $800.00.

A. games   B. websites   C. lies   D. stories

25、Minds work together

"Let's brainstorm together!" You might often hear your teachers ask you to have a group discussion to solve a problem. But is brainstorming really a good way to deal with problems, especially creative ones?

Dutch company WeTransfer conducted (进行) a survey of 20,000 people from 197 countries and regions. Most of the participants have creative jobs. They are writers, musicians, photographers, and podcasters (播客博主). The survey results suggested that brainstorming is largely unhelpful for solving a creative challenge.

"It seems that while working together is important to bring an idea to life, it's not that good for shaping ideas in the first place," said Rob Alderson, WeTransfer's former editor in chief.

If we give people enough time and space to think properly (适当地), they will come up with better ideas, Alderson added. Even Alex Osborn, the father of brainstorming, sees spending time alone to think as part of his own creative process.

However, most companies fail to give their employees (员工) a chance to prepare and form their thoughts. They often have many meetings scheduled, which is a killer of creativity, according to the survey. More than 40 percent of participants see meetings as a barrier (障碍) to good thinking.

Spending time alone to think will help you come up with your own ideas and develop independent thinking. This is important when you're making decisions. Nearly 80 percent of participants in We Transfer's survey say they trust their own instincts (直觉) and research when they consider an idea.

【1】What was the result of the survey?

A.Brainstorming is needed to solve creative problems.

B.Brainstorming destroys people's creativity.

C.People waste too much time brainstorming.

D.Brainstorming isn't good for solving creative challenges.

【2】Alex Osborn probably agrees that ________.

A.working together is important for shaping ideas.

B.spending time alone is good for shaping ideas.

C.everyone has his or her own way to shape ideas.

D.companies should hold meetings for the employees to shape ideas.

【3】What can we learn from paragraph 5?

A.Most employees have no right to speak out.

B.Most companies don't like their employees to think creatively.

C.Meetings are seen as a barrier to creativity.

D.Most people don't like meetings.

【4】Which sentence is right according to the passage?

A.We shouldn't work together at any time.

B.We can only be creative when we are alone.

C.We shouldn't hold meetings.

D.Thinking alone can help us be creative.
