He also proved that atoms e

2、xist and figured out that light behaves as both a particle and a wave. To top it all off, he developed his famous equation E=mc2, which describes the relationship between matter and energy, the same year. He was only 26 years old.Without a doubt, Einstein was a genius. So was Isaac Newton as any fan

3、 of “Star Trek: The Next Generation“ can tell you, he invented physics. He also played a big role in the development of calculus, which some people have trouble comprehending even after extensive classroom study. Another genius, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, started composing music when he was 5 years ol

4、d. Mozart wrote hundreds of pieces before his death in 1760 at age 35.According to conventional wisdom, geniuses are different from everyone else. They can think faster and better than other people. In addition, many people think that all that extra brainpower leads to eccentric or quirky behavior.

5、And although geniuses are fairly easy to spot, defining exactly what makes one person a genius is a little trickier. Figuring out how that person became a genius is harder still.There are two big things that make it difficult to study genius: The genius label is subjective. Some people insist that a

6、nyone with an intelligence quotient (IQ) higher than a certain value is a genius. Others feel that IQ tests measure only a limited part of a persons total intelligence. Some believe high test scores have little to do with real genius. Genius is a big-picture concept. Most scientific and medical inqu

7、iries, on the other hand, examine details. A concept as subjective as genius isnt easy to quantify, analyze or study.So, when exploring how geniuses work, its a good idea to start by defining precisely what a genius is. For the purpose of this article, a genius isnt simply someone with an exceptiona

8、lly high IQ. Instead, a genius is an extraordinarily intelligent person who breaks new ground with discoveries, inventions or works of art. Usually, a geniuss work changes the way people view the world or the field in which the work took place. In other words, a genius must be both intelligent and a

9、ble to use that intelligence in a productive or impressive way.Genius and the BrainYour brain regulates your bodys organ systems. When you move around, it sends impulses along your nerves and tells your muscles what to do. Your brain controls your senses of smell, taste, touch, sight and hearing, an

10、d you experience and process emotions using your brain. On top of all that, your brain allows you to think, analyze information and solve problems. But how does it make you smart?Scientists havent figured out exactly how all the gray matter in your brain works, but they do have an idea of which part

11、 lets you think. The cerebral cortex (大脑皮层), which is the outermost part of your brain, is where thought and reasoning happen. These are your brains higher functions the lower functions, which relate to basic survival, take place deeper in the brain.Your cerebral cortex is the largest part of your b

12、rain, and its full of wrinkles and folds that allow it to fit in your skull. If you removed and stretched out an adult humans cerebral cortex, it would be about as large as a few pages of a newspaper. Its divided into several lobes, and different regions within these lobes handle specific tasks rela

13、ted to how you think.In spite of all those challenges to see the brain inside and how it works, researchers have figured out a few things about how the brain affects intelligence. A 2004 study at the University of California, Irvine found that the volume of gray matter in parts of the cerebral corte

14、x had a greater impact on intelligence than the brains total volume. The findings suggest that the physical attributes of many parts of the brain rather than a centralized “intelligence center“ determine how smart a person is. Genius and IntelligenceLike genius, intelligence can be difficult to quan

15、tify. Psychologists and neuroscientists study intelligence extensively. An entire field of study, known as psychometrics, is devoted to studying and measuring intelligence. But even within that field, experts dont always agree on exactly what it is or how best to analyze it. And while intelligence i

16、s central to genius, not all geniuses score well on intelligence tests or perform well in school.Intelligence testing has existed for thousands of years. Chinese emperors used aptitude testing to evaluate civil servants as early as 2200 BC. The tests we know as IQ tests got their start near the end

17、of the 19th century. Today, IQ tests generally measure a persons memory as well as language, spatial and mathematical abilities. In theoretical terms, these tests measure a concept or factor known as g. You can think of g as a unit of measure or a way of expressing the amount of intelligence a perso

18、n has.IQ tests are also standardized so that most people score between 90 and 110. When placed on a graph, the IQ test scores of a large group of people will generally resemble a bell curve, with most people scoring in the average range. A common perception is that anyone scoring above a certain num

19、ber often 140 is automatically a genius. But in spite of the existence of high-IQ organizations, many scientists caution that there is no such thing as a genius-level IQ.Many educators and researchers feel that, in general, standardized IQ tests do a good job of predicting how well a child will perf

20、orm in school. Schools often use these tests to determine which children to place in gifted or special education classes. Most colleges and universities and some employers also use standardized tests as part of their application processes.Creativity and GeniusTheres a big difference between being re

21、ally smart and being a genius. While geniuses tend to be exceptionally intelligent, they also use imagination and creativity to invent, discover or create something new within their field of interest. They break new ground rather than simply remembering or reciting existing information.Geniuses do n

22、ot usually operate in isolation, either nearly all of them analyze the work of other great minds and use that information to make new discoveries. Self- taught geniuses, on the other hand, often explore information in unexpected or inventive ways, due in part to their lack of formal training. In eit

23、her case, the ability to imagine new possibilities is as important as general intelligence.Like intelligence, creativity and imagination can be difficult to isolate, quantify or explain. Some researchers believe that creative people have less latent inhibition than other people. Latent inhibition is

24、 the unconscious ability to ignore unimportant stimuli. Researchers theorize that creative people either receive more stimuli from the world around them or ignore less of it. This may also explain why creative people seem to be more prone to mental illness. People who are both unable to filter stimu

25、li and emotionally unstable are more prone to psychosis.Creativity also seems to have some traits in common with bipolar disorder. During an episode of mania, a person with bipolar disorder experiences increases in energy, the ability to focus and motivation. Bipolar disorder is more common among wr

26、iters and artists than in the general population, but scientists have not found a cause-and-effect relationship between the two.The creativity of geniuses also relates to productivity and hard work. Sometimes, the most dramatic examples of genius involve people who produce their best work at a very

27、young age. However, not every genius produces exceptional work early in life the way Einstein and Mozart did. Some, like Ludwig yon Beethoven, do their best work later in life.（分数：70.00）(1).Who is the genius that started composing music in 5?（分数：7.00）A.Star Trek.B.Wolfgang Mozart.C.Albert Einstein.D
