V/ Read the text carefully and then choose the correct answers :
Psychologist have debated a long time about whether a child’s upbringing can give it the ability to do
outstandingly well. Some think that it is impossible to develop genius and say that it is simply something a
person is born with. Others, however, argue that the potential for great achievement can be develop. The truth
lies somewhere between these two extremes.
It seems very obvious that being born with the right qualities from gifted parents will increase a child’s ability
to do well. However, this ability will be fully realized only with the right upbringing and opportunities. As one
psychologist says, “To have a fast car, you need both a good engine and fuel.”
Scientists have recently assessed intelligence, achievement, and ability in 50 sets of identical twins that were
separated shortly birth and brought up by different parents. They found that achievement was based on

intelligence, and later influenced by the child’s environment.
One case involving very intelligent twins was quoted. One of the twins received a normal upbringing, and
performed well. The other twin, however, was brought up by extremely supportive parents and given every
possible opportunity to develop its abilities. That twin, though starting out with the same degree of intelligence
as the other, performed even better.
This case reflects the general principle of intelligence and ability. The more favorable the environment, the
more a child’s intelligence and ability are developed. However, there is no link between intelligence and
socioeconomic level of a child’s family. In other words, it does not matter how poor or how rich a family is, as
this does not affect the intelligence.
Gifted people can not be created by supportive parents, but they can be developed by them. One professor of
music said that outstanding musicians usually started two or three years earlier than ordinary performers, often
because their parents had recognized their ability. These musicians then needed at least ten years’ hard work
and training in order to reach the level they were capable of attaining.
People who want to have very gifted children are given the following advice:
- Marry an intelligent person.
- Allow children to follow their own interests rather than the interests of the parents.
- Start a child’s education early but avoid pushing the child too hard.
- Encourage children to play; for example, playing with musical instrument is essential for a child
who wants to become an outstanding musician.
41: When scientists studied intelligence and ability in twins, they found that ______.
A. ability depends mainly on intelligence and achievement
B. ability depends both on intelligence and environment
C. different twins generally have different levels of ability
D. intelligence and development are irrelevant to ability
42: Scientists chose twins for their study because ______.
A. each twin has the same environment as his/ her twin
B. they have the same genetic background, usually with similar intelligence
C. they are born into the same family, hence the same upbringing
D. they have the same economic background and hence the same opportunities
43: How were great musicians different from ordinary musicians in their development?

A. They were exceptionally intelligent and artistic
B. They practice playing their instruments for many years
C. Their ability was realized at an early stage and then nurtured
D. They concentrated on music to the exclusion of other areas

Ever since humans inhabited the earth, they have made use of various form of communication. Generally, this
expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is language barrier,
communication is accomplished through sign language in which the motions stand for letters, words, and
ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of
whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, can not.

can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the
head indicates a negative reaction.

fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and
instruct people
