Or is intelligence (智力) developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. In some degree, our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no 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 environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich environment. Therefore, the limits of person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This point of view, now is held by most experts. It is easy to show that intelligence is something that we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be intelligence. If we take two strangers by chance from the population, it seems that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we compare two 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 depends on birth. Imagine now that we take two twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory separately where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this shows that environment as well as birth plays an important role. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact (接触) with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence. 26. How is man’s intelligence given? A. At birth B. Through education C. Both at birth and through education D. Neither at birth nor through education 27. What does the underlined word mean in the first paragraph? A. 稳固 B. 确定 C. 修理 D.安排 28. According the passage, if a child is born with low intelligence, what might happen to him later? A. Become a genius. B. Still become a genius if he should be given special education. C. Reach his intelligence limits in rich environment. D. Never reach his intelligence in his life. 29. What can we learn from the example of the twins going to a university and to a factory? A. The importance of their intelligence. B. The role of environment on intelligence. C. The importance of their jobs D. The part that birth plays 30. What statement is TRUE according to the passage? A. No education can help make a genius. B. Personality is important as intelligence which was given to people at birth. C. People who have similar degree of intelligence must be relatives. D. Environment influences people in intelligence developing. 【答案】CBCBD 【解析】本文主要讲述了主要讲述的是坏境和出生对智力起着重要的作用。 26. 细节题。 根据第一段our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no education can make a genius (天才) out of a child born with low intelligence。故选C。 27. 猜测题。根据上下文可知，一个人智商的上限在出生时已经固定了。故选B。 28. 推测题。根据最后一段的实验可知，环境会影响一个人的智商，故选C。 29. 细节题。根据最后一段一句This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact (接触) with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.可知选B。 30. 细节题。根据全文可知选D。 B (二中*元月考) “Today I will give you a special test,” said the English teacher with a smile on his face. All the students sat up straight and waited for the test to begin. The teacher began to give the test papers to all the students. After he finished handing out the test papers, he asked them to begin. The students were very surprised to see that there was not a question but a black dot in the centre of the paper. The teacher noticed the students’ surprise and said, “I want you to write about what you see there.” At the end of the class, the teacher took all the students’ answer sheets and read the answers. All of them described the black dot. After reading all the answers, the teacher said, “Here everyone only paid attention to the black dot, but no one wrote about the white paper.” The whole class listened silently, because they were afraid to fail the exam. Then the teacher said, “Don’t worry about your marks for this test. I just want you to think about your life. The white paper is like your whole life and the black dot in the centre of the paper represents (代表) problems in your daily life. Our life is a gift given to us by God, with love and care. However, we just pay attention to the problems like illness and poverty, and never see happy things in our life. So we should try to solve our problems and enjoy each moment life gives us.” 31.

It is never too old to learn. D. Don’t keep all your eggs in one basket. 【答案】DBAA 【解析】本文主要讲述了英语老师通过特别的测试告诉学生们一个道理：不要只看到人生中的贫困，疾病等问题，要学会乐观地享受生活的快乐。 31. 细节题。根据“The teacher noticed the students’ surprise and said, ‘I want you to write about what you see there.’”可知，老师想要学生把他们看到的东西写下来。故选D。 32. 细节题。根据“All of them described the black dot.”可知，所有人都描述了那个黑点，选项B表达的内容与之不符。故选B. 33. 排序题。根据“The teacher began to give the test papers to all the students.”老师开始给所有学生发试卷，“At the end of the class, the teacher took all the students’ answer sheets and read the answers.”下课时，老师拿了所有学生的答题纸，并读了答案，“Don’t worry about your marks for this test.”不要担心你这次考试的分数，和“I just want you to think about our life.”我只是想让你们思考一下我们的生活，可知，正确的顺序是④①②③。故选A。 34. 主旨题。本文主要是告诉我们不要只看到人生中的贫困，疾病等问题，要学会乐观地享受生活的快乐，A项表示“不要为一分钱的焦油而毁了船”，符合文意。所以A正确。 C (二中*元月考) Greece restarted regular ferry (轮渡) services to its islands, and cafes and restaurants were also back open for business to save its tourism. Travel to the islands had been generally off-limits since a lockdown was carried out in late March to stop the spread of the coronavirus, with only goods suppliers and locals allowed to enter. But the country’s low infection rate (感染率) in the COVID-19 pandemic encouraged the government to start the holiday season three weeks earlier than the expected June 15 date. At Bairaktaris restaurant on central Monastiraki Square in Athens, waiters and other workers wearing face masks, prepared various dishes, arranged flowers on tables and waited for customers, who remained cautious. Spiros Bairaktaris, the owner, is carrying on a family business running for 140 years and has hung pictures on the wall of himself sitting next to supermodel Naomi Campbell, singer Cesaria Evora, and other famous customers. Greece has had nearly 2,900 infections and 171 deaths from the virus. Italy has seen nearly 33,000 coronavirus patients die, Spain has had nearly 29,000 deaths and Turkey 4,340, according to a record by Johns Hopkins University. Social distancing rules and passenger limits have been introduced on ferries and at restaurants to prevent new infections. State-run health services to fight the coronavirus are being provided to the islands. Tourism is a vital part of the Greek economy, directly contributing more than 10% of the country’s GDP. More than 34 million visitors traveled to Greece last year, spending 18.2 billion euros ($19.5 billion), according to government data. 35. What does the underlined word “off-limits” in Paragraph 2 probably refer to? A. Stopped. B. Admired. C. Confirmed. D. Encouraged. 36. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text? A. Tourism has been completely saved in Greece. B. Visitors are welcomed to Greece to help develop tourism. C. Coronavirus pandemic has already disappeared in Greece. D. The holiday season would start in June. 37. What can we know from the text? A. Bairaktaris restaurant is not so attractive as before. B. People can enjoy Italian food in Bairaktaris restaurant. C. Turkey has had 4,340 infections so far. D. Greece’s GDP may be less than 18.2 billion euros last year. 38. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To attract famous customers in Greece. B. To show the growth of Greek economy. C. To introduce the efforts made for Greek tourism. D. To share how to run a restaurant in Greece. 【答案】ABAC 【解析】 35. 猜测题。根据“Travel to the islands had been generally off-limits since a lockdown was carried out in late March to stop the spread of the coronavirus, with only goods suppliers and locals allowed to enter.”可知自3月下旬为阻止冠状病毒传播而实施封锁以来，前往这些岛屿的旅行基本上是……的，只有货物供应商和当地人被允许进入。由此推出旅行被阻止了，off-limits与stopped含义相近。故选A。 36. 细节题。根据“Greece restarted regular ferry services to its islands, and cafes and restaurants were also back open for business to save its tourism.”可知希腊在拯救旅游业，希腊欢迎游客来希腊旅游，促进旅游业发展。可知选B。 37. 推断题。根据“At Bairaktaris restaurant on central Monastiraki Square in Athens, waiters and other workers wearing face masks, prepared various dishes, arranged flowers on tables and waited for customers, who remained cautious.”可知顾客们仍然对进入餐厅就餐很谨慎，由此推出Bairaktaris的餐厅不像以前那么吸引人了。可知选A。 38. 主旨题。根据“Greece restarted regular ferry services to its islands, and cafes and restaurants were also back open for business to save its tourism.”及全文内容可知写这篇文章的主要目的是介绍为希腊旅游业所做的努力。选C。 第II卷（49分） 4、 语篇填词（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分） Zheng He was borin in Yunnan.
