　　There are two factors which determine an individuals intelligence.The first is the sort of brain he is born with.Human brains differ considerably,some being more capable than others.But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with,an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn.So the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he is reared.If an individual is handicapped envionmentally ,it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.

　　The importance of environment in determining an individuals intellingence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins,Peter and Mark X.Being identical,the twins had identical brains at birth,and their growth processes were the same.When the twins were three months old ,their parents died,and they were placed in separate foster homes.Peter was reated by parents of low intelligence in an isolatedcommunity with poor educational pooprtunities.Mark was reared inthe home of well-to-do parents who had been to college.He was read to as a child ,sent to good schools,and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually.This enviromental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens,when they were giben tesets to measure their intelligence.Marks I.Q.was 125,twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother.Given equal opportunities ,the twins ,having identical brains,would have tested at roughly the same level.

　　1.This selection can best be titled_________.a.Measuring Your Intelligence b.Intelligence and Environment c.The Case of Peter and Mark

　　d.How the brain Influences Intelligence

　　2.The beststatement of the main idea of this passage is that _____.

　　a.human brains differ considerably

　　b.the brain a person is born with is improtant in determining his intelligence

　　c.environment is crucial in determining a persons intelligence

　　d.persons having identical brains will have roughly the same intelligence

　　3.According to the passage ,the average I.Q.is _____.a.85

　　b.100

　　c.110

　　d.125

　　4.The case history of the twins appears to support the conclusion that _______.

　　a.individual with identical brains seldom test at same level b.an individuals intelligence is determined only by his enviroment

　　c.lack of opportunity blocks the growth of intelligence d.changes of enviroment produce changes in the structure of the brain

　　5.This passage suggests that an individual s I.Q.______.a.can be predicted at birth

　　b.stays the same throuthout his life c.can be increased by education d.is determined by his childhood

　　英語閱讀(二)試題3

　　If the population of the earth goes on increasing at its present rate,there will eventually not be enough resources left to sustain life on the planet.By the middle of the 21st century,if present trends continue,we will have used up all the oil that drives our cars,for example.Even if scientists develop new ways of feeding the human race,the crowded conditions on earth will make it necessary for lus to look for open space somewhere else.But none of the other planets in our solar system are capable of supporting life at present.One possible solution to the problem,however,has recently been suggested by American scientist,Professor Carl Sagan.

　　Sagan believes that before the earths resources are compleetely exhausted it will be possible to change the atmophere of Venus and so create a new world almost as large as earth itself.The difficult is that Venus is much hotter than the earth and there is only a tiny amount of water there.

　　Sagan proposes that algae organisms that can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time produce oxygen,should be bred in condition similar to those on Venus.As soon as this has been done,the algae will be placed in small rockets.Spaceship will then fly to Venus and fire the rockets into the atmosphere .In a fairly short time,the alge will break down the carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbon.

　　When the algae have done theri work,the atmosphere will become cooler,but befor man can set foot on Venus it will be neccessary for the oxygen to produce rain.The surface of the planet will still be too hot for man to land on it but the rain will eventually fall and in a few years something like earth will be reproduced on Venus.

　　1.Inte long run,the most insoluble problem caused by population growth on earth will probably be the lack of ______.

　　a.food

　　b.oil

　　c.space

　　d.resources

　　2.Carl Sagan believes that Venus might be colonized from earth because _____

　　a.it might be possible to change its atmosphere b.its atmosphere is the same as the earths c.there is a good supply of water on Venus d.the days on Venus are long enough 3.On Venus there is a lot of ________.a.water

　　b.carbon dioxide

　　c.carbon monoxide

　　d.oxygen

　　4.Algae are plants that can____.a.live in very hot temperatures b.live in very cold temperatures c.manufacture oxygen

　　d.all of the above

　　5.Man can land on Venus only when_______.a.the algae have done their work b.the atmosphere becomes cooler c.thereis oxygen

　　d.it rains there

　　英語閱讀(二)試題4

　　The United States is on the verge of losing its leading place in the worlds technology.So says more than one study in recent years.One of the reasons for this decline is the parallel decline in the number of U.S.scientists and engineers.

　　Since 1976,employment of scientists and engineers is up 85 percent.This trend is expected to continue.However,the trend shows that the number of 22-year-olds--the near term source of future PH.D.s-is declining.Further adding to the problem is the increased competition for these candidates from other fields-law,medicine,business,etc.While the number of U.S.PH.D.s in science and engineering declines,the award of PH.D.s to foreign nationals is increasing rapidly.

　　Our inability to motivate students to pursue science and engineering careers at the graduate level is compounded because of the intense demand industry has for bright Bachelors and Masters degree holders.Too often,promising PH.D.candidates,confronting the cost and financial sacrifice of pursuing their education,find the attraction of industry irresistible.

　　1.The U.S.will come to lose its leading place in technology probably because ________.

　　a.the number of PH.D.degree holders is declining b.the number of scientists and engineers is decreasing c.the number of 22-year-ilds is declining d.scientists and engineers are not employed

　　2.The field of science and engineering is facing a competition from ________ .

　　a.technology

　　b.foreign nationals

　　c.such fields as law,medicine and business d.postgraduates

　　3.Large-scale enterprises now need _______.a.bright graduates and postgraduates b.new inventions

　　c.advanced technology

　　d.engineers

　　4.Many promising postgraduates are unwilling to pursue a PH.D.degree because _________.

　　a.they are not encouraged to be engaged in science b.industry does not require PH.D.holders c.they have financial difficulties

　　d.they will spend much time and energy completing PH.D.5.PH.D.candidates "find the attraction of industry irresistible" means that _________.

　　a.they find industry is attracting more and more college students

　　b.they dont think they can prevent themselves from working for industry

　　c.they cannot resist any attraction from all sides d.they cannot work for industry any longer
