16、，分数：71.00)We“re now witnessing the emergence of an advanced economy based on information and knowledge. 1 , raw materials, and capital are no longer the key ingredients in the creation of wealth. Now, the 2 raw material in our economy is knowledge. Tomorrow“s wealth depends on the development and ex

17、change of knowledge. And 3 entering the workforce offer their knowledge, not their muscles. Knowledge workers get paid for their education and their ability to learn. Knowledge workers 4 mind work. They deal with symbols, words, figures and data. What does all this mean for you? As a future knowledg

The parents and grandparents of your students are resources and 1 for their children. They can be 2 teachers of their own traditions and histories. Immigrant pare

22、nts could talk about their country of 3 and why they emigrated to the United States. Parents can be invited to talk about their jobs or a community project. Parents, of course, are not the only community resources. Employees at local businesses and staff at community agencies have 4 information to s

23、hare in classrooms. Field trips provide another opportunity to know the community. Many students don“t have the opportunity to 5 concerts or visit museums or historical sites except through field trips. A school district should have 6 for selecting and conducting field trips.

Since Steve Jobs resigned as chief executive of Apple, much has been said abo

27、ut him as a peerless business leader who has created immense wealth for shareholders, and guided the design of hit products that are transforming entire industries, like music and mobile communications. B. All true, but let“s think different, to borrow the Apple marketing slogan of years back. Let“s

28、 look at Mr. Jobs as a role model. C. Above all, he is an innovator (创新者). His creative force is seen in products such as the iPod, iPhone, and iPad, and in new business models for pricing and distributing music and mobile software online. Studies of innovation come to the same conclusion: you can“t

29、 engineer innovation, but you can increase the odds of it occurring. And Mr. Jobs“ career can be viewed as a consistent pursuit of improving those odds, both for himself and the companies he has led. Mr. Jobs, of course, has enjoyed singular success. But innovation, broadly defined, is the crucial i

30、ngredient in all economic progresshigher growth for nations, more competitive products for companies, and more prosperous careers for individuals. And Mr. Jobs, many experts say, exemplifies what works in the innovation game. D. “We can look at and learn from Steve Jobs what the essence of American

31、innovation is,“ says John Kao, an innovation consultant to corporations and governments. Many other nations, Mr. John Kao notes, are now ahead of the United States in producing what are considered the raw materials of innovation. These include government financing for scientific research, national p

32、olicies to support emerging industries, educational achievement, engineers and scientists graduated, even the speeds of Internet broadband service. E. Yet what other nations typically lack, Mr. Kao adds, is a social environment that encourages diversity, experimentation, risk-taking, and combining s

33、kills from many fields into products that he calls “ recombinant mash-ups (打碎重组),“ like the iPhone, which redefined the smartphone category. “The culture of other countries doesn“t support the kind of innovation that Steve Jobs exemplifies, as America does,“ Mr. John Kao says. F. Workers of every ra

34、nk are told these days that wide-ranging curiosity and continuous learning are vital to thriving in the modern economy. Formal education matters, career counselors say, but real-life experience is often even more valuable. G. An adopted child, growing up in Silicon Valley, Mr. Jobs displayed those t

35、raits early on. He was fascinated by electronics as a child, building Heathkit do-it-yourself projects, like radios. Mr. Jobs dropped out of Reed College after only a semester and traveled around India in search of spiritual enlightenment, before returning to Silicon Valley to found Apple with his f

36、riend, Stephen Wozniak, an engineering wizard (奇才). Mr. Jobs was forced out of Apple in 1985, went off and founded two other companies, Next and Pixar, before returning to Apple in 1996 and becoming chief executive in 1997. H. His path was unique, but innovation experts say the pattern of exploratio

37、n is not unusual. “It“s often people like Steve Jobs who can draw from a deep reservoir of diverse experiences that often generate breakthrough ideas and insights,“ says Hal Gregersen, a professor at the European Institute of Business Administration. I. Mr. Gregersen is a co-author of a new book, Th

38、e Innovator“s DNA , which is based on an eight-year study of 5000 entrepreneurs (创业者) and executives worldwide. His two collaborators and co-authors are Jeff Dyer, a professor at Brigham Young University, and Clayton Christensen, a professor at the Harvard Business School, whose 1997 book The Innova

39、tor“s Dilemma popularized the concept of “ disruptive (颠覆性的) innovation.“ J. The academics identify five traits that are common to the disruptive innovators: questioning, experimenting, observing, associating and networking. Their bundle of characteristics echoes the ceaseless curiosity and willingn

40、ess to take risks noted by other experts. Networking, Mr. Hal Gregersen explains, is less about career-building relationships than a consistent search for new ideas. Associating, he adds, is the ability to make idea-producing connections by linking concepts from different disciplines. K. “Innovators

41、 engage in these mental activities regularly,“ Mr. Gregersen says. “It“s a habit for them.“ Innovative companies, according to the authors, typically enjoy higher valuations in the stock market, which they call an “innovation premium (溢价).“ It is calculated by estimating the share of a company“s val

42、ue that cannot be accounted for by its current products and cash flow. The innovation premium tries to quantify (量化) investors“ bets that a company will do even better in the future because of innovation. L. Apple, by their calculations, had a 37 percent innovation premium during Mr. Jobs“ first ter

43、m with the company. His years in exile resulted in a 31 percent innovation discount. After his return, Apple“s fortunes improved gradually at first, and improved markedly starting in 2005, yielding a 52 percent innovation premium since then. M. There is no conclusive proof, but Mr. Hal Gregersen say

44、s it is unlikely that Mr. Jobs could have reshaped industries beyond computing, as he has done in his second term at Apple, without the experience outside the company, especially at Pixarthe computer- animation (动画制作) studio that created a string of critically and commercially successful movies, suc

45、h as “Toy Story“ and “Up.“ N. Mr. Jobs suggested much the same thing during a commencement address to the graduating class at Stanford University in 2005. “It turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me,“ he told the students. Mr. Jobs also spoke o

46、f perseverance (坚持) and will power. “Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick,“ he said. “Don“t lose faith.“ O. Mr. Jobs ended his commencement talk with a call to innovation, both in one“s choice of work and in one“s life. Be curious, experiment, take risks, he said to the students. His adv

47、ice was emphasized by the words on the back of the final edition of The Whole Earth Catalog , which he quoted: “Stay hungry. Stay foolish.“ “And,“ Mr. Jobs said, “I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.“（分数：71.00）(1).Steve Jobs called on Sta
