The exact mechanisms involved are still mysterious, but the likelihood that many cancers are initiated at the level of genes suggests that we will never prevent all cancers. Changes are a normal part of the evolutionary process, says oncologist William Hayward, Environmental factors can never be totally eliminated。 as Hayward points out, We can39。 t prepare a medicine against cosmic rays. The prospects for cure, though still distant, are brighter. First, we need to understand how the normal cell controls itself, Second, we have to determine whether there are a limited number of genes in cells which are always responsible for at least part of the trouble. If we can understand how cancer works, we can counteract its action. 63. The example of Pasteur in the passage is used to ________.

Inventions and innovations almost always e 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. They point is that the players who score most are the ones who take the 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 there39。 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 so seemingly simple innovations like plastic garbage bags and suitcases on wheels that make life more convenient: How e 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 bestknown and apparently simplest route. The innovator 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. 67. What does the author probably mean by untaught mind in the first paragraph?

[B] The intelligence they possess. [C] The way they deal with problems. [D] The way they present their findings. 69. The author quotes Rudolph Flesch in Paragraph 3 because ________. [A] Rudolph Flesch is the bestknown expert in the study of human creativity [B] the quotation strengthens the assertion that creative individuals look for new ways of doing 该套资料由芸芸视频整理 ： 747883097 TL： 028 8194 2202 期待广大考生咨询 推荐： 09 年新东方考研数学英语政治视频课程 提供试看文件 提供试用下载网盘 8 things [C] the reader is familiar with Rudolph Flesch39。 s point of view [D] the quotation adds a new idea to the information previously presented 70. The phrase march to a different drummer (the last line of the passage) suggests that highly creative individuals are ________. [A] diligent in pursuing their goals [B] reluctant to follow mon ways of doing things [C] devoted to the progress of science [D] concerned about the advance of society 该套资料由芸芸视频整理 ： 747883097 TL： 028 8194 2202 期待广大考生咨询 推荐： 09 年新东方考研数学英语政治视频课程 提供试看文件 提供试用下载网盘 9 Unit 2 Passage 1 Money spent on advertising is money spent as well as any I know of.
