　　六级阅读专项练习题答案解析

　　1.[Belief.]

　　[定位]根据psychologists查找到全文首句。

　　解析：题干中的distinguish对应原文中的differentiates，首句提到心理学家说区分有创造力的人和没有创造力的人的一个因索就是信念，因此本题答案为Belief。

　　2.[the word randomly picked in a dictionary]

　　[定位]根据comparison between the problem查找到第4段前三句。

　　解析：第4段提出寻找点子的第2个技巧是在字典里随手挑出一个词，强迫自己拿这个问题和这个词进行比较。因此本题答案为the word randomly picked in a dictionary。

　　3.[letting your imagination run/stretching your imagination]

　　[定位]根据Feasible changes of actions和specific features查找到第5段最后两句。

　　解析：第5段末句讲到，想出一些具有此类具体特征的可行的行动的改变。而由上句的“在放飞你的想象力之后”可知中这些行动的改变正是通过“放飞想象”而想出来的，因此本题答案为letting your imaginationrun/stretching your imagination。

　　4.[vitality]

　　[定位]根据frozen-fish processor查找到第6段。

　　解析：第6段末句提到，为了躲开肉食鱼，其他的鱼不停地游动，这样就保持了活力和新鲜的味道。也就是说，当鱼恢复活力的时候，新鲜的味道就被保留了，所以答案为vitality。

　　5.[the assembly line]

　　[定位]根据Henry Ford查找到第7段倒数第2句。

　　解析：原文该句提到，Henry Ford创造的体系可以把装配材料送到工人面前，接着下一句提到，装配线就这样诞生了，因此本题答案为末句中的the assembly line。
