Human brains differ 1 , some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a 2 he has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to 3 . So the second factor is what happens to the individual —the sort of environ ment in which he is reared. If an individual is 4 environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is 5 .The importance of environment in determining an individual‘s intelligence can be 6 by the case history of Peter and Mark X.

He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every 10 to be stimulated intellec tually. This environmental 11 continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were giv en tests to 12 their intelligence. Mark‗s I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average a nd 13 forty points higher than his identical brother.Given the 14 opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at 15 the same level.1． A. slightly B. considerably C. generally D. generally2． A. idea B. mind C. brain D. thought3． A. grow B. experience C. practice D. learn4． A. disagreed B. disapproved C. disabled D. disfavored5． A.acceptable B. available C. accessible D. capable6． A. realized B. demonstrated C. achieved D. experimented7． A. birth B. first C. last D. half8． A. perfect B. remote C. separate D. isolated9． A. practical B. natural C.actual D. educational10． A. opportunity B. condition C. instruction D. guidance11． A. similarity B. difference C. change D. variety12． A. ensure B. measure C. decline D. decrease13． A. nearly B. rarely C. extremely D. fully14． A. precious B.different C. equal D. rare15． A.roughly B. completely C. obviously D. exactly第二节语法填空(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为16～25的相应位置上。

She took a job at a hospital, delivering meals to patients as what was called “a tray girl” .Jerry Johnson, the youngest child in the family, was 5 years old when his dad left. Speaking with his mother recently, Johnson heard his mother repeat the question she asked at that time. “Lord, what am I going to do with all these kids by myself?” The answers came in the form of lima beans, black-eyed peas and low prices on chicken necks. “Something to boil for every day of the week,” Conley said.“I cannot remember one Christmas that I didn‟t feel like the luckiest kid in the world,” Johnson said, “even though now I realize we has hardly anything in terms of mo ney.”“How did you hold all that together?” he asked his mother.Conley said she would save up her sick days at work, going in no matter how she felt. Then in December, the company would pay her for the unused sick days. More help came in castoffs(废弃物)，when wealthy families would clean out their toy chests at Christmastime and take a load of toys to the Salvation Army. Conley would pickthrough them, finding the best ones for her children. The result of those sacrifices led to a big, happy Christmas for Conley and her kids.“But I never did tell you it was a Santa Claus,” Conley said, “I couldn‟t give any man credit for what I had done.”Johnson thanked his mom for her sacrifices, and for the good example she set for him and his siblings. “I think it‟s helping us all be better parents,” Johnson said.56. How did Johnson feel about Christmas when he was a kid?A. AwfulB. DisappointedC. PleasedD. Indifferent57. How did Conley struggle to send the children Christmas gifts?A. By begging rich families to helpB. By picking up gifts of low pricesC. By visiting the Salvation ArmyD. By helping clean out toy chests58.

Johnson sensed his mother‟s despair when he was youngBFlorida deputy Gene Smith thought the calls about a kangaroo wandering on the street were part of a prank. But WTSP reports that the story was true: A five-foot-tall, 200-pound kangaroo was hopping around Pasco County on Sunday.Then the call came that it was now on US 301. Gene Smith, who noted that the calls were the strangest he‟dreceived during 17 years on the force, said, “Sure enough, there was a kangaroo in the middle of the road. It was a pretty big and extremely strong animal. It wasn‟t until I grabbed those legs that I realized just how strong they were. It doesn‟t look like that on TV.In fact, the kangaroo was so strong that police couldn‟t catch it. Al ong with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and the Pasco County Sheriff‟s Office Agricultural Unit, they tried a number of approaches to wrangle in the animal without seriously injuring it. But not even tranquilizers(镇定剂) could slow dow n the creature. Eventually, local resident Kevin Wehling, who WTSP said “had heard rumors about the kangaroo and wanted to see it for himself,” captured the animal.Kangaroos typically do not attack humans unless they are angered. However, an Australian politician was recently knocked down and scratched facing a kangaroo while out for a morning jog. They can become more aggressive when they find themselves in a strange environment with a team of police officers hunting them down.Police still have no idea who owns the kangaroo and have now placed it in the care of a vet. Technically, you can own a kangaroo in the Sunshine State if you have the right permits. In theory, wildlife officials should be able to narrow the field and pinpoint where the stray kangaroo came from.60. What does the underlined word “prank” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. TaskB. PlanC. TrickD.

According to what Gene Smith said in Paragraph2, we infer that____.A. he was skilled at grabbing kangarooB. he had seen many kangaroos in the wild beforeC. he had always worried that kangaroos would attack peopleD. he didn‟t expect capturing the kangaroo would be that hard62. What can we infer from Paragraph4?A. Kangaroos are the gentlest animals in the worldB. Kangaroos can be dangerous in certain circumstancesC. Kangaroos usually beg for food when they are hungryD. Kangaroos can adapt to a strange environment quickly63. Wildlife officials should be able to pinpoint where the stray kangaroo came from because _____.A. the kangaroo can lead them to its ownerB. they can refer to the kangaroo‟s footstepsC. cameras have recorded the kangaroo‟s trackD. they can refer to records of people keeping kangaroosCA Scottish woman has given birth to twins for the third time.

Punishment is focused on reducing or getting rid of unwanted behaviors. Punishment can be effective in some cases. 71 Prison is one example. After being sent to jail for a crime, people often continue committing crimes once they are away from prison.Why is it that punishment seems to work in some instances, but not in others？Researchers have found a number of factors that contribute to how effective punishment is. First, punishment is more likely to lead to a reduction in behavior if it immediately follows the behavior. 72 It may help explain why sending people to jail does not always lead to a reduction in criminal behaviors.Another factor is that punishment achieves greater results when it is consistently applied. 73 For example, people often continue to drive over the speed limit even after receiving a speeding ticket. Why? Because the behavior is inconsistently punished.74 One of them is that any behavior changes that result from punishment are often temporary(暂时的). Perhaps the greatest one is the fact that punishment makes people not perform certain actions, but it does not actually offer any information about more appropriate or desired behaviors.Another thing to consider about punishment is that it can have unintended and undesirable consequences. Forexample, approximately 75 percent of parents in the United States report hitting their children. 75 For this reason, psychologists suggest that any short-term gains from using punishment should be weighed because it may produce potential long-term consequences.A.Punishment also has some notable disadvantages.B.Parents and teachers consider punishment an effective tool.C.Prison sentences often occur long after the crime has been committed.D.There are two types of punishment, positive punishment and negative punishment.E.In fact, it can be difficult to administer a punishment every single time a behavior occurs.F.However, you can probably think of situations where punishment does not reduce a behavior.G.Researchers have found that this type of physical punishment can lead to antisocial behaviors among children.2013-2014上学期期中试卷答案五．七选五：FCEAG六．改错：I‟m a senior school student, so I like English very much.
