Answer questions 14 - 16 according to the passage below.

Creativity is attracting increasing attention in the field of ELT. It has been discussed from a range of perspectives in a series of articles. From a practical point of view, teachers have a growing number of resources to tap into if they wish to add a more creative dimension to their classes. However, as Stevick reminds us: ‘we should judge creativity in the classroom by what the teacher makes possible for the student to do, not just by what the teacher does'. Stevick associates this idea closely with the concept of 'learning space', maintaining that creativity can flourish when enough space is provided for learners to grow into, which is, however, sufficiently structured to ensure that every learner feels secure. Can creativity be learnt? Some argue that it can. What is certain is that everyone is capable of it given the right conditions, especially in language: ‘linguistic creativity is not simply a property of exceptional people but an exceptional property of all people'. Language certainly enables us to create new associations, playful combinations, and new meanings. All of these options can be explored and enjoyed in the English classroom, even at elementary level.
