Ⅱ. Cloze Test ( 10 points, 1 point for each item)

Great artists and great scientists are similar in that they both use the two sides of their brain. It is well known that Albert Einstein,  11  a great scientist, also enjoyed art, playing the violin and sailing. Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination  12  from analysis, reason and language. The story goes  13  Einstein was daydreaming one summer’s day  14  sitting on a hill. He imagined that he was riding on sunbeams to the far distance of the universe.  15  he found that he had returned to the sun. So he realized that the universe must curve. He got this  16  by using his imagination. He then used the left side of brain to  17  analysis, number and reason. And finally he used language to explain it.

Traditional,  18  education in schools encourages us to use the left-hand side of our brains. Language, number, analysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming.  19  , we are encouraged to leap when we have two perfectly good legs! Then why don’t we give more  20  to visual thinking?
