21、born clever, and others born stupid Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some degree our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligen

22、ce. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and different surroundings. Thus the limits of persons intelligence are fixed at birth, and whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This idea,

23、 now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways. It is easy to show that intelligence is to some degree something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be intelligent. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from

24、population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two twins, they are very likely to be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly s

25、uggests that intelligence depends on birth. Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this sh

26、ows that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in touch with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence. 【小题 1】 If a child is born with low intelligence, he can _. A become a gen

27、ius B not reach his intelligence in his life C reach his intelligence limits in rich surroundings D still become a genius if he should be given special education 【小题 2】 In Paragraph 2, the underlined sentence “if we take two unrelated people at random from population” means “_.” A if we pick any two

28、 persons B if we take out two different persons C if we choose two persons who have relations D if we choose two persons with different intelligence 【小题 3】 The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows _. A the part that birth plays B the importance of their relati

29、ons C the importance of their intelligence D the role of environment on intelligence 【小题 4】 The best title of the passage can be “_”. A Surroundings B Intelligence C Dependence on Environment D Effect of Education 答案： 【小题 1】 C 【小题 2】 A 【小题 3】 D 【小题 4】 B Why Rent Textbooks Renting textbooks is a rela

30、tively new idea for everyone. Back in the old days, the idea of renting one never existed since the books are affordable or readily available in libraries. But the time has changed and with the changes in educational system and various economic challenges happening across the globe, the price of tex

31、tbooks increased. Given such fact, textbook renting is now a new fashion among college students. Research was made to find out if renting helps one save money and time rather than buying new textbooks and realized that it really is. Lets examine carefully further and see why renting books is a cost-

32、effective way to still get to have your textbooks without shelling too much money from your pocket. Gives value for your money You dont have to buy all of your textbooks. Those non-major subjects, are better acquired through renting. It saves one money and helps you give out the money you save on so

33、me other personal possessions you need in college. Renting textbooks allows you to save at least 50% off the standard retail (零售 ) price for each item. You can tell, with a little research, that renting is a lot cheaper compared to buying used books aside from looking way better than the former. Sav

34、es time You can save a great deal of time when renting a textbook. Instead of browsing your way for hours trying to look for better deals online, you can simply go to a popular book renting marketplace online and just order away. There is literally no need to skimming for hours and see where you can

35、 find a great deal. Often, the rental company gives you prepaid postage slip just to get you going and do the same when you decide to return the book. This process not only saves you time, it also saves other resources like gas if you decide to go to the nearest bookstore to buy books or spend hours

36、 using electricity just to find a good deal. User Friendly Aside from being able to save money and time, renting textbooks brings convenience to all users. Imagine trying to scan the virtual bookshelf and checking on comments of previous users and figuring out which ones got bad comments and which h

37、ad great ones. It could be fun at first but if you are short of time, the process can become annoying. If you rent books, you will only be needing the books ISBN number and find it right away. No more time-wasting site search. Type in the ISBN number, order the book, and wait for it to get shipped t

38、o your home. 【小题 1】 The reason why people havent the habit of renting textbooks in the old days is that _. A the educational system has not changed by now B people can afford books or get books easily in libraries C different economic challenges happen across the world D the price of textbooks is mu

39、ch higher than that of nowadays 【小题 2】 The underlined word “shelling” in paragraph 2 means “_”. A saving B spending C removing D wasting 【小题 3】 The following statements are the reasons why textbook renting is now a new fashion among college students EXCEPT _. A One can save a great deal of time in b

40、rowsing for better deals online B It brings convenience to all the users apart from saving money and time C The process saves other resources if you dont go to the nearest bookstore D It saves one money and helps him spend money on what he need most in college 【小题 4】 The passage mainly tells us that

41、 _. A renting textbooks allows you to save a lot of money B renting a textbook can also save you a great deal of time C textbook renting was a relatively new fashion among college students D textbook renting is a money-saving, fun, and, convenient way for college students 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 B 【小题 3

42、】 C 【小题 4】 D NBA commissioner David Stern was in Orlando on Thursday night, getting ready for Sundays All-Star Game. Of course, all he could talk about was the only player anyone wants to talk about these days: New York Knicks guard Jeremy Lin. Hours before Lin took the court against the Heat, a few

43、 hundred miles South down I-95 in Miami, Stern told reporters that Lins instant popularity hasnt ever been matched in sports history, not even by Sundays biggest names, LeBron James or Kobe Bryant. The Associated Press had the details. “I havent done a calculation, but its fair to say that no player

44、 has created the interest and the craze in this short period of time, in any sport, that Im aware of like Jeremy Lin has,” Stern said Thursday. Lin, an undrafted(未选秀的 )guard from Harvard, has become the NBAs biggest story since coming off the Knicks bench earlier this month to lead them to nine wins

45、 in 11 games heading into their matchup with Miami on Thursday night. With Lins popularity in Asia as the leagues first American-born player of Chinese or Taiwanese descent, and with the religious community because of his strong Christian faith, Stern says hes “never quite seen anything like” the at

46、tention on Lin. “Its fascinating,” Stern said after the All-Star Jam Session opening ceremonies. The top five videos on NBA.com since Feb. 4, when Lin joined the circulation, are all Lin or Knicks related. Lin went from 190,000 followers on Sina, Chinas version of Twitter, on Feb. 2 to more than 1 m

47、illion as of Feb. 16. Indeed, Lins popularity is so out of this world that the NBA made a late list switch to ensure his participation in the Rising Stars Challenge on All-Star Saturday, a game that includes the NBAs best rookies(新秀球员 )and sophomores. Lin is in such high demand that all of the games

48、 other participants will meet with the media following a team practice on Friday while Lin will have his own, separate press conference later in the night. This is Jeremys world, folks. Were all just living in it. Even David Stern and the rest of the leagues All-Stars, at least for the moment. 【小题 1】 The following statements about Jeremy Lins instant popularity are true EXCEPT that _. A Jeremy Lin led New York Knicks to win all the recent games this
