Are some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answers to these questions are both 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 surroundings. Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, 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, 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 depends 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 should soon find differences in intelligence developing and this shows that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close touch with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degree of intelligence. (274 words)

The Three Gorges Dam

“Walls of stone to hold back clouds and rain”
Mao Zedong wrote a poem in which he           (梦想) “walls of stone to         (阻止) clouds and rain till a       (光滑的,平坦的) lake       (上升) in the narrow gorges”. Now his dream has           (实现). The        (水力) of the Yangtze River, which is the world’s third longest river, has been           (利用) by the Three Gorges Dam.
The Three Gorges Dam, which is the biggest                 (建筑工程)in China since the building of the Great Wall and the Grand Canal, has been built                  (控制泛滥)and
     hydro-electric power        (为……提供)the central region of China. The dam is nearly 200 metres      (高)and 1.5 kilometres      (宽). It is the largest              (水力发电站)
and dam in the world and has cost more than any other construction project in history.
Sun Yat-sen, who was the leader of the 1911 Revolution, first       (建议,提出)the idea of a dam across the Yangtze River in 1919. Three quarters of China’s energy is         (产生)by burning coal. In 1993, China used 1.2 billion tons of coal for heating and                  (发电). Unfortunately, burning coal      (导致,引起) serious air pollution and increases             (全球变暖). The dam will generate electricity           (相当于)about 40 million tons of coal without causing so much air pollution.
The reservoir has        (淹没)2 cities, 11 counties, 140 towns and more than 4,000 villages. More than a million people who lived in the region have moved from their homes. Now they’re                         (过着幸福的新生活)in different areas.
The Three Gorges area is one of the most beautiful areas of China and the project has flooded some of China’s most famous                 (历史遗迹),      (包括)the Qu Yuan Temple, the Han Watchtower and the Moya Cliff carvings. About 800 historical relics have been      (淹没). Some of them are being          (迁移)and some are being put into museums.

第四部分:写作
第一节: ( 共10小题,每小题1分,共10分 )
读下面一篇文章,根据文中信息完成所给表格,每空不超过三个单词。
People in the United States honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer a chance to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child-care.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A. red one stands for a living mother. A. white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services(宗教仪式)to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit their graves. On these days, families get together at home and in restaurants. They often have outdoor BBQs for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries, telephones companies and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays.

The right pair of exercise shoes can do a lot to prevent discomfort and injuries, personal trainers say.Here are some shopping tips:
­    小题1:   Depending on your workout, shoes designed for walking, running, tennis, cross-training or another specialty will provide the best support for your feet.
Shop when you normally exercise.Feet actually get bigger throughout the day, sometimes swelling up as much as a half-size by nighttime.  小题2:  
Try them on.Never grab a pair of exercise shoes based only on the size of footwear you normally buy.Bring the type of socks you’d wear to work out and go for a walk through the store.
  小题3:   You should be able to spread your toes out comfortably.Make sure there’s about a half-inch of space between them and the front of the shoe.The back should fit snugly (warmly and comfortably) against your heel and not move up and down.If your feet are different sizes, buy based on the larger one.
Talk to an expert.Shoe salesmen and personal trainers can study your stride (步伐) and the shape of your feet. 小题4:  
  小题5:   Many trainers recommend switching footwear every three to five months, if possible, to maintain(保持)proper cushioning and support.
One tip: if you have to tie your shoes very tightly to feel a good amount of support, they may be ready to go.
A.Think about how much you can afford to buy the workout shoes.
B.Consider your type of exercise.
