It is well known that twins are closer to each other than most brothers and sisters; after all, they probably spend more time with each other. In Britain there was the famous case of the silent twins, June and Jennifer Gibbons, who refused to talk to anyone but each other.
However, these special relationships are the result of lives spent almost completely in each other’s company. What happens when twins do not grow up together? Are they just like any other strangers, or are there still special similarities between them? Professor Tom Bouchard who works in the University of Minnesota set out to find the answer to this question. He followed sixteen pairs of twins, who lived in different families. Each twin was then interviewed about their life.
The results were surprising. Many of the twins were found to have the same hobbies or habits, and some have suffered the same illnesses. A large number of the twins have had children at almost the same times; sometimes they have even given them the same names. But the most surprising similarities are to be found in the case of Jim Springer and Jim Lewis. The story of the “Jim Twins” made headline news across USA, and they even appeared on national television. Born in 1939, and brought up by different families at birth, both babies were named Jim by their new parents.
So what can be the explanation for these similarities? Research into the lives of twins makes us believe our personalities may be at least partly due to nature. On the other hand, some surprising coincidences（巧合） do happen all the time, not just in the lives of twins.
1.What did Professor Tom Bouchard want to find out?
A.How many kinds of similarities are there in the twins?
B.What makes the twins have similar hobbies or habits?
C.Do the twins influence each other when they are young?
D.Are the twins alike if they are brought up in different families?
2.What can be learned about Jim Twins?
A.They got married nearly at the same age.
B.Their story even appeared on TV in the USA.
C.They had children almost at the same time.
D.They refused to talk to others but each other.
3.What does the author want to tell us by writing the last paragraph?
A.Surprising stories between twins brought up in different families.
B.Some examples of similarities in twins brought up in different families.
C.The interesting relationship between twins brought up in different families.

To many students, joining social media “circles” is now more important than making new friends in real life. And it is easy. If you have a mobile phone, you can download many apps such as Weibo, QQ and Wechat.
“I love to check my friends’ updates. I also enjoy news and jokes shared on social media,” said Wang Wei, 14, from a middle school in Shenzhen. While enjoying these, Wang distances himself from real life.

Many students are happy to tell their interests and personal information to their social media friends.
