Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely【C1】_, the answer to

23、both these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius【C2】_a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in boring environment will develop his intelligence less than the one who lives in rich

24、 and varied surroundings. Thus the【C3】_of a person“ s intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his【C4】_This view, not held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways. It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent【C5】_we are born w

25、ith. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people【C6】_, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical twins they will likely be a

26、s intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have【C7】_intelligence and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth. 【C8】_now that we take identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example to a univer

27、sity and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment【C9】_birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the【C10】_that people who live in close contact with each other,but who are not related

28、 at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.（分数：20.00）(1).【C1】（分数：2.00）A.quiteB.enoughC.sureD.so(2).【C2】（分数：2.00）A.out ofB.intoC.from withinD.off(3).【C3】（分数：2.00）A.amountsB.qualitiesC.limitsD.scores(4).【C4】（分数：2.00）A.dispositionB.perceptionC.endowmentD.environment(5).【C5】（分数：2.00）A.a

30、itionD.environment六、Part Reading Compre(总题数：6，分数：60.00)Fourteen-year-old Sean MeCallum lay in a hospital bed waiting for a new heart. Without it, Scan would die. Sean“ s case is not unusual. Everyday many people die because there just aren“ t enough human organs to go around. Now scientists say they

31、 can alter the genetic make-up of certain animals so that their organs may be acceptable to humans. With this gene-altering technique to overcome our immune rejection to foreign organs, scientists hope to use pig hearts for transplants by the year 2008. That prospect, however, has stirred up strong

32、opposition among animal fight activists. They protest that the whole idea of using animal organs is cruel and unjust; some scientists also fear such transplants may transform unknown diseases to humans. Others believe transplanting animal organs into humans is unnecessary. Millions of dollars spent

33、on breeding pigs for their organs could be better spent on health education programs. They believe seventy-five percent of the heart disease cases that lead to a need for organ transplant are preventable. The key is to convince people to eat healthfully, and not to smoke or drink alcohol. Scientists

34、 could also use research funds to improve artificial organs. Still others believe that though new inventions and prevention programs may help, spending money to encourage more people to donate their organs is an even better idea. If enough people were educated about organ donations, everyone who nee

35、ded an organ could be taken off the waiting list in a year.（分数：10.00）(1).What is the problem the passage begins with?（分数：2.00）A.High mortality rate of immune rejectionB.A malpractice in heart transplantation.C.An unusual case of organ transplantD.A shortage of human organs(2).Not only is the gene-al

36、tering technique a technical issue, according to the passage but also it_.（分数：2.00）A.introduces an issue of inhumanityB.raises the issue of justice in medicineC.presents a significant threat to the human natureD.pushes the practice of organ transplant to the limits(3).Doubtful of the necessity of us

37、ing animal organs, some scientists_.（分数：2.00）A.are to narrow the scope of organ transplantsB.switch to the development of artificial organsC.come up with alternatives to the current problemD.set out to pursue better ways of treating heart disease(4).It can be inferred from the concluding paragraph o

38、f the passage that_.（分数：2.00）A.the gene-altering technique will help those waiting for organ transplantsB.the present supply of human organs still has potential to be exploredC.people prefer the use of animal organs for medical purposesD.the gene-altering technique leaves much to believed(5).The inf

39、ormation the passage carries is_.（分数：2.00）A.enlighteningB.unbelievableC.imaginativeD.factualThere is a great irony of 21st-century global health: While many hundreds of millions of people lack adequate food as a result of economic inequities, political corruption, or warfare, many hundreds of millio

40、ns more are overweight to the point of increased risk for diet-related chronic diseases. Obesity is a worldwide phenomenon, affecting children as well as adults and forcing all but the poorest countries to divert scarce resources away from food security to take care of people with preventable heart

41、disease and diabetes. To reverse the obesity epidemic, we must address the fundamental causes. Overweight comes from consuming more food energy than is expended in activity. The cause of this imbalance also is ironic: improved prosperity. People use extra income to eat more and be less physically ac

42、tive. Market economies encourage this. They make people with expendable income into consumers of aggressively marketed foods that are high in energy but low in nutritional value, and of cars, televisions set. And computers that promote sedentary behavior. Gaining weight are good business. Food is pa

43、rticularly big business because everyone eats. Moreover, food is so overproduced that many countries, especially the rich ones that far more than they need, another irony, than the United States, to take an extreme example, most adults-of all ages, incomes, educational levels, and census categoriesa

44、re overweight. The U. S. food supply provides 3800 kilocalories per person per day, nearly twice as much as required by many a-dults. Overabundant food forces companies to compete for sales through advertising, health claims, new products, larger portions, and campaigns directed toward children. Foo

45、d marketing promotes weight gain. Indeed, it is difficult to think of any major industry that might benefit if people ate! Less food; certainly not the agriculture, food product, grocery, restaurant, diet or drug industries. All flourish when people eat more. And all employ armies of Lobbyists to di

46、scourage governments from doing anything to inhibit overeating.（分数：10.00）(1).The great irony of 21st century global public health refers to_.（分数：2.00）A.the cause of obesity and its counteractive measuresB.the insufficient and superfluous consumption of foodC.the seas natural resource and the green o

47、f food sourceD.the consumption of food and the increased risk for diet-related diseases(2).To address the fundamental cause of the obesity epidemic, according to the passage, is_.（分数：2.00）A.to improve political and economic managementB.to cope with the energy imbalance issueC.to combat diet-related

48、chronic diseasesD.to increase investment in global health(3).As we can learn from the passage, the second irony refers to_.（分数：2.00）A.affluence and obesityB.food energy and nutritional valueC.food business and economic prosperityD.diseases of civilization and pathology of inactivity(4).As a result of the third irony, people_.（分数：2.00）A.consume 3800 kilocalories on a daily basisB.complain about foo
