Passage Four
Are some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied
D. she was doubtful about her some

surroundings. Thus the limits of a person's intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or 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 is, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depend 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 their intelligence developing, and this indicates 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, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.
66. If a child is born with low intelligence, he can ________ . A. not reach his intelligence in his life B. go beyond his intelligence limits in rich surroundings C. still become a genius if he should be given special education D. become a genius
67. “if we take two unrelated people at random from the population” (Para. 2 ) means if we ________ .
.
A. choose two persons with different intelligence B. choose two persons who are relative
C. take out two persons of close relationship D. pick any two persons
68. The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows ________ . A. the part that birth plays B. the importance of their positions C. the role of environment on intelligence D. the importance of their intelligence
69. The writer is in favor of the view that man's intelligence is given to him ________ . A. neither at birth nor through education B. through education C. both at birth and through education D. at birth 70. The best title of this passage can be ________ .
A. Effect of Education B. Dependence on Environment C. Intelligence
