She found there were more people with mental illness in this group than in the general population. Poets had the highest ra

32、te of mental illness, followed by musicians, with lower numbers for painters and architects. Other scientists did research which also showed a strong link between mental problems and creativity. But, it did nothing to explain it. Dr Ruth Richards of Harvard University made a breakthrough. Instead of

33、 studying creative people, she took a group of psychiatric (精神病的 ) patients and tested them for creativity. The patients got much higher scores than a normal group. Also, the patients close relatives were much more creative than the patients and a normal group. This suggests that the key to the link

34、 between creativity and mental illness is in our genes (基因 ). But this is a problem. According to Darwinism, harmful genes should be removed. Some scientists believe that evolution (进化 ) has created a balance, where the madness of a few people leads to the development of the whole human race. Genius

But still there is a danger that grows every year. Airliners get larger and larger. Some airplanes can ca

41、rry over 300 passengers. And the air itself becomes more and more crowded. If one large airliner struck into another in mid-air, 600 lives could be lost. From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is watched on radar screens. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot e

42、xactly when to turn, when to climb, and when to come down. The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London-Heathrow may deal with 2,500 planes a day. Not all of them actually land at the airport. Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there. Eve

One was carrying 69 passengers from Toronto, the other 176 passengers from Chicago. An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that th

44、e two planes were too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb. But he made a mistake. He ordered the wrong plane to do this. So, instead of turning away from the second plane, the first plane turned towards it. Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the seco

45、nd plane. They avoided each other by the smallest part of a second. The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool. This is an example of the danger that grows every year. 63. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage A. Traveling by air is as safe as by car. B.
