The first is the sort ofbrain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. Butno matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low level of intelligenceunless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to theindividual-the sort of environment in which he is brought up. If an individual is (不利旳)environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the levelof intelligence of which he is capable.3 / 12 The importance of environment in determining an individuals intelligence can be demonstratedby the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. Being identical, the twins had identical brainsat birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old, theirparents died, and they were placed in separate Peter was raised by parents of low intelligence in anisolated community with fewer educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to doparents who had been to college. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given everyopportunity to be stimulated intellectually.This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they weregiven tests to measure their intelligence.

The best title of this passage is .A. Measuring Your IntelligenceC. The Case of Peter and MarkB. Intelligence and EnvironmentD. How the Bram Influences intelligence4 / 12 Passage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Three American psychologists did a research study several years ago on what Americansvalue most. In the study, eighteen values were asked to put in the order of importance. The result isas follows:1. family security3. freedom2. a world at peace4. self-respect5. happiness6. wisdom7. a sense of accomplishment9. true friendship11. inner harmony13. national security15. a world of beauty17. an exciting life8. a comfortable life10. Salvation (拯救) in the religious sense12. Equality14. mature love16. pleasure18. social recognitionAre you surprised that Americans place their values in this way? Did you think they would puttheir values in a different order? I would have thought love and friendship might have come higheron this list. As you can see, several of these values are closely related to each other and are dependentupon each other. In other words, we cannot have 1-family security without 2 a world at peace, and 3national security.The results of the study showed that people who placed equality high up on their list ofvalues were those who had positive attitudes towards persons of other races and who supportedcivil rights activity, especially the work of Martin Luther King Jr.Another Interesting finding in this study was that eleven-year-old children ranked a world ofbeauty 7th in Importance, but fifteen-year old children ranked a world of beauty 14th and adultsranked it 17th. Well, what does it mean? Probably it means that as people grow older and take onmore responsibilities in their work and with their own families, that appreciating beauty move-backinto the background of their lives. What a pity! Children have more time to enjoy equity and Nature.Philosophers, psychologists and religious people have always been very much concededwith values.

Peoples concepts of values play an essential role in the formation of their governmentsystem.19. The finding that children ranked a world of beauty higher than adults probably means that .A. American schools begin to lay more emphasis on beauty educationB. American children are usually more kind-hearted than adultsC. adults have less time to enjoy beauty and Nature because of more responsibilitiesD. a world of beauty would be the most important thing as people grow older20.
