語(yǔ)篇理解
Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes.To some extent(從某種程度上說(shuō)) our intelligence(智力) is given to us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius(天才) out of a child born with low intelligence.On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring(乏味的) environment(環(huán)境) will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings.Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether of not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment.This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.
It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with.The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence.Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(隨意地) from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different.If on the other hand we take two identical twins(雙胞胎) they will very likely be as intelligent as each other.Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar(相同的) intelligence, and this clearly suggests 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 indicates(表明) that environment as well as birth plays a part.This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other(聯(lián)系), but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.
1.The writer is in favor of the view that man's intelligence is given to him ______.
[ ]
A.at birth
B.through education
C.both at birth and through education
D.neither at birth nor through education
2.If a child is born with low intelligence, he can ______.
[ ]
A.never become a genius
B.still become a genius if he should be given special education
C.exceed(超過(guò)) his intelligence limits in rich surroundings
D.not reach his intelligence in his life
3.In the second paragraph “if we take two unrelated people at random from the population…” means if we ______.
[ ]
A.pick up any two persons
B.choose two persons who are relatives
C.take out two different persons
D.choose two persons with different intelligence
4.The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately is to show ______.
[ ]
A.the importance of their intelligence
B.the role of environment on intelligence
C.the importance of their positions
D.the part that birth plays
5.The best title of this passage can be ______.
[ ]
A.Surroundings
B.Intelligence
C.Dependence on Environment
D.Effect of Education

語(yǔ)篇理解
Books are for reading, but man must bring to their reading a desire to learn and a power of absorbing. Reading should be active, not passive.
When students first go to a library, they may be at a loss as to what to read of all the different subjects. Well, Bacon tells you to “l(fā)ook at weak places in your armor(盔甲)”, and shows you how to fill up the blanks(空白)in your knowledge. On the other hand ,it is no good just trying to fill your mind with Knowledge. Knowledge in itself is often useless. A mind filled with too much knowledge is like a room too full of furniture; a man cannot walk about freely in it, and look out of the windows. It is much better to concentrate on a few subjects which interest you and to deal lightly with the others than to march heavily through the whole range of learning, like a silly tourist(旅游者)going through a museum and not missing a single object. If you try to master every subject you may become very wise, but you will be very lonely and you will probably lose all your friends. So you must learn to pick and choose , and you must also learn to look here and there in a library like a camel eating grass on the grassland. If you watch it eating, you will see that although he is supposed to be one of the most stupid animals in the world, he has at least one of the qualities of the cultured man, the power to pick and choose. A student looking for mental food in a library should take the camel as his model.
1.The writer thinks that one must ______.
[ ]
A.read as many books as he can
B.try to read books on all the different subjects
C.only read books on subjects that interest him
D.read and absorb a lot
2.A cultured man is similar(相同)to a camel because ______.
[ ]
A.neither of them is interested in knowledge
B.the man reads books as much as a camel eats grass
C.neither of them can be considered wise
D.both of them have the ability to select
3.The term “mental food” at the end of the passage refers to ______.
[ ]
A.books B.grassland
C.brain D.subjects
4.In the second paragraph the writer mainly discusses ______.
[ ]
A.how to compare furniture with books
B.how to select reading materials
C.how to avoid missing anything interesting in the library.
D.why books must be absorbed
5.The writer thinks that it is ______ to try to master every subject.
[ ]
A.necessary B.possible
C.not good D.not interesting

The old man rested in the sun.He thought of his violin which he loved dearly.He remembered buying it in 1931 from a stranger who needed money.He had paid him $ 2.50.
“Uncle Sanchez, a telegram(電報(bào))for you!”a boy shouted.
Slowly the man opened it.First he smiled,then he laughed.
“What is it?”the boy asked.
“From the American who saw my violin at Christmas.”He remembered that the stranger had looked inside the violin as if he were looking for gold.”He says my violin was made by Stradivari.He will buy it for $100000.”
Sanchez was not the first person to learn that his violin was a treasure(財(cái)寶).He is just one of the most recent.Stories like this could be told in different parts of the world.Some of Stradivari’s violins have been carefully protected,others have been harmed by carelessness.

Today it is thought that Stradivari made violins that are better than any made ever since.Many of the world’s best violinists have chosen Stradivari’s violins.But few now can have a lot of money to collect them.some of the most beautiful are kept in museums.There,they can be seen by everyone or lent to famous artists for concerts.
