Section I Use of English（满分10分） Directions: 
Read the following text. Choose the best word(s) for each numbered blank and mark A, B, C or D on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points)
Most of us would like to be both (1) and creative. Why was Thomas Edison able to invent so many things? Was he simply more intelligent than most people? Did he spend long hours toiling away in private? Surprisingly, when Edison was a young boy, his teacher told him he was too (2) to learn anything. Other famous people whose creative genius went (3) when they were young include Walt Disney, who was fired from a newspaper job because he did not have any good ideas and Enrico Caruso, whose music teacher told him that his (4) was terrible. 
Disney, Edison and Caruso were intelligent and creative men; (5), experts on creativity believe that intelligence is not the same as creativity. Creativity is the ability to think about something in new and unusual ways, and to (6)out unique solutions to problems. When creative people are asked what enables them to solve problems in new ways, they say that the ability to find affinities between (7) unrelated elements plays a key role. They also say that they have the time and independence in an (8) setting to (9)a wide range of possible solutions to a problem. 
How strongly to is cteativity (10) to intelligence? (11) most creative people are quite intelli-is not necessarily true. Many highly intelligent people ((13) measured by IQtests) are not very creative. 
Some experts remain skeptical that we will ever fully understand the creative process. Others believe that a psychology of creativity is within reach. Most experts agree, 14 , that the concept of creativity as 15 bubbling up from a magical 16 is a myth. Momentary 17 of insight, (18) by images, make up a are ability and experience that (20) an individual’s effort,often over the course of a lifetime.

Section II Reading Comprehension Part A（满分40分） Directions: Read the following four Passages. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A,B,C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(40 points) 

Text 1
Faced with the task of analyzing thousands of genes at once, researchers routinely turn to DNA chips thumbnail-size disks of glass orplastic with thousands of microscopic bits of DNA arrayed on their surface, made by Affymetrix Inc, and others. The chips are one of the key innovations that have transformed genomics from a cottage industry into a large-scale automated business. Now, as researchers begin work on the complete set of human proteins the proteome they are betting that protein chips will be one of the mainstays of research. 
As proteins are far more complex than strands of DNA,it’s not an easy leap from DNA chips to protein ones. But that hasn’t discouraged biochemist Patrick O.Brown, who played a critical role in developing simple, cheap DNA chips. He and his graduate student, Brain Haab recently completed a pilot study to test the feasibility of protein chips. They put antibodies obtained from other labs on glass chips and looked to see what stuck to them. Roughly a third of the 120 off-the-shelf antibodies they have tested bonded specifically to their protein counterparts. 
J. Craig Venter, president and chief scientific officer of Celera Genpmics, also believes that these protein chips are oneof the keys that will unlock the secrets of the human proteome. Venter plans to use them to uncover the complicated networks of interactions that occur amog proteins in a given cell. He believes this technology will totally take the place of the need for DNA chips. 
That won’t happen overnight. It’s not easy to make specific antibodies to fight every variant of every protein in the human body, for it takes months to make just one. Imagine having to repeat that million of times over. Rudolf H. Aebersold, a molecular biologist at the University of Washington in Seattle, believes that protein chips have a lot of potential, but cautions that as a research tool,they still have a long way to go. Aebersold’s lab is trying to make a different kind of chip that miniaturizes and automates protein separation. 
Just what forrm protein chips ultimately take is anybody’s guess.But sophisticated tods like them are essential if researcher are to solve the riddles buried in the human proteome. 
21. Based on the first paragraph, it is true that DNA chips are （本题分值：2分）

【正确答案】
D 
[A] capable of splitting thousands of genees at once for scientific research. 
[B] small glass or plastic pieces wrapped in thousands of tiny DNA bits. 
[C] powerful tools for analyzing genes invented by Affymetrix Inc and others. 
[D] to be substituted for by protein chips based on the research of the proteome. 

22.The recent test made by Patrick Brown and his student shows that

（本题分值：2分）

【正确答案】
A 
[A] the making of protein chips is practicable though it’ s more expensive than that of DNA chips. 
[B] it’s more difficult to construct protein chips than DNA chips because of the greater complexity of proteins. 
[C] their study on the feasibility of protein chips proves to be the most advanced in the area. 
[D] the better part of the activated antibodies stuck together with their corresponding proteins. 

23. According to Craig Venter,

（本题分值：2分）

【正确答案】
B 
[A] the secrets of the human proteome are locked in the protein chips. 
[B] the human proteome may be further studied with the helpof protein chips. 
[C] protein chips are the unique means to disclose the mystery of the human proteome. 
[D] the interactions among human proteins are too complex to be explained without protein chips. 

24. Rudolf Aebersold asserts that

（本题分值：2分）

【正确答案】
C 
[A] the proteome is so difficult to analyze with a single technology. 
[B] no specific antibodies can effectively prevent protein variations. 
[C] it requires a great many years and efforts to put protein chips into practical use. 
[D] it is possible to make protein chips miniaturized and automated in protein separation. 

25."Just what... is anybody’s guess" in the last paragraph may be best interpreted as

（本题分值：2分）

【正确答案】
A 
[A] "tKere’s no way of knowing for certain what the final form of protein chips will be". 
[B] "everyone can have a guess at the form that protein chips may finally take". 
[C] "the ultimate shape protein chips may take will go beyond most people’s expectation". 
[D] "anyone may form his/her opinion about what shape protei
