The first is the so
19、rt 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 th
20、e sort of environment in which he is reared (抚养). If an individual is handicapped environmentally, 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 intelligence can b
21、e demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. 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 (收养) homes. Peter was reare
22、d by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the 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 environmental d
23、ifference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Marks IQ 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
24、, would have tested at roughly the same level.（分数：15.00）(1).This selection can be titled _.A. Measuring Your Intelligence B. Intelligence and EnvironmentC. The Case of Peter and Mark D. how the Brain Influences Intelligence（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The best statement of the main idea of this passage is t
25、hat _.A. human brains differ considerablyB. the brain a person is born with is important in determining his intelligenceC. environment is crucial in determining a persons intelligenceD. a person who is handicapped environmentally will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable（分数：

28、his parents D. is determined by his childhood（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.To a philosopher, wisdom is not the same as knowledge. Facts may be known in enormous numbers without the knower of them loving wisdom. Indeed, the person who possesses encyclopedic (学士渊博的) information may actually have a genuine contempt
29、 (轻视) for those who love and seek wisdom. The philosopher is not content with a mere knowledge of facts. He desires to combine and evaluate facts, and to examine beneath the obvious to the deeper orderliness behind the immediately given facts. Insight into the hidden depths of reality, perspective (
30、洞察) on human life and nature in their entirety, in the words of Plato, to be a spectator of time and existence-these are the philosophers objectives. Too great an interest in the small details of science, may, and often does, obscure these basic objectives.Philosophers assume that the love of wisdom
31、 is a natural gift of the human being. Potentially every man is a philosopher because in the depths of his being there is an intense longing to penetrate to the meaning of the mysteries of existence. The inner deep longing expresses itself in various ways prior to any actual study of philosophy as a
32、 technical branch of human culture. Consequently every human being in so far as he has ever been or is a lover of wisdom has, to that extent, a philosophy of life.（分数：15.00）(1).The title below that best expresses the idea of this passage is _.A. The Potential Philosopher B. The Philosophy of PlatoC.

35、e above（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The author suggests that a man becomes a philosopher when he _.A. studies philosophy as a subject B. collects all the factsC. realizes obvious truths D. seeks a meaning for life（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary
36、for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax lit
37、tle by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs,
38、your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help
39、make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!（分数：15.00）(1).A good title for this passage is _.A. Sleep B. Good Health C. Dreams D. Work and Rest（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The word “drowsy“ in the last paragraph means _.A. sick B. stand up C. asleep D. a little

41、erage number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is _.A. approximately six hours B. around ten hoursC. about eight hours D. not stated here（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.In every language there are two great classes of words which, taken together, consist of the whole vocabulary. First, there are those words wi
42、th which we become acquainted in daily conversation, which we learn, that is to say, from the members of our own family and from our familiar associates, and which we should know and use even if we could not read or write. They concern the common things of life, and are the goods in trade of all tho
43、se who speak the language. Such words may be called “popular“, since they belong to the whole people; and are not the exclusive possession of a limited class.On the other hand, our language includes a large number of words which are comparatively seldom used in ordinary conversation. Their meanings
44、are known to every educated person, but there is little occasion to use them at home or in the market-place. Our first acquaintance with them comes not from our mothers lips or from the talk of our school-mates, but from books that we read, lectures that we bear, or the more formal conversation of h
45、ighly educated speakers who are discussing some particular topic in a style raised above the habitual level of everyday life. Such words are called “learned“. And the distinction between them and “popular“ words is of great importance to a right understanding of the language.（分数：15.00）(1).One class
46、of words can be learned _.A. through everyday life B. without too much practiceC. from popular songs D. with a dictionary in ones hand（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The words concerning everyday life are _.A. in the possession of each individual B. something exchanged for moneyC. not familiar to highly educat
47、ed people D. not included in a book（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(3).In this passage, “learned“ is used _.A. as a word equal to “educated“ B. as a word similar to “informed“C. as a word close to “acquired“ D. as a word opposite to “popular/（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).According to the passage, both “popular“ words and “
48、learned“ words _.A. seem to be of no useB. can help people to get a better comprehension of the language.C. are easy to masterD. have gone beyond our mothers reach（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(5).From the passage, we can infer that “popular“ words are _.A. essential to daily life B. not regular in usageC. conve
49、nient to use D. not standard enough to be used（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.十、 Daily Conversation(总题数：1，分数：10.00)A. I think so.B. With pleasure.C. Please take it easy.D. Yes, but why?E. Sure you can.F.
