Question

阅读下面的短文，然后按要求写一篇 150 词左右的英语短文。
There are two factors which determine an individual’s intelligence. The first is sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerable, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individual — the sort of the environment in which he is brought up. If an individual is handicapped(受阻碍) environmentally, it is likely that his brain will stop to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.
The importance of environment in determining an individual’s intelligence can be proved by the identical twins, Peter and John. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate foster(寄养) homes. Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. John, however, was educated in the home well-to-do parents who had been to college. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. John’s IQ was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his brother.

How to fully develop our intelligence?
The writer argues in support of the importance of environment in terms of the development of a person’s intelligence by giving an example of a pair of twin brothers, who were brought up in different environments.
Personally, I believe environment is crucial to an individual intelligence, as a good environment can offer more opportunities to increase his knowledge and broaden the horizons as well as the chances to practise.
There was such a famous example in Chinese history. Zhongyong, born with a high IQ, distinguished himself by reciting and even writing poems as a child, which astonished others. Unfortunately, his father didn’t offer him a good environment to foster him but instead, he often took him everywhere to show off his intelligence. Gradually, Zhongyong became an ordinary person.
Thus, I think we, including our parents, our teachers, and even the whole society, should try to create a good environment for the children to fully develop their intelligence, and for the children, they should also learn to exploit everything available to develop themselves.

试题分析：我们应首先找出这篇材料中故事的主角, 然后找出该主角(何时何地因何原因或出于何种目的)做了何事, 再弄清结果如何, 以及该故事说明了一个什么道理或给人有什么启示。(1)由于字数限制为大约30个词, 我们不一定要使用The story tells us或者The author/The passage shows us that等开头套语。(2)时态应与原文时态一致。(3)一般以第三人称的形式来表述。如I要变成The writer, he/she等。用最简练的文字（30个字左右）把文章的主要内容概括出即可，无须把一些细节，琐碎的内容加上，如描述，举例，一些具体事实等。
