    People with bigger brains ftend to score higher on standardized tests of intelligence， according to new study findings.
    However， the study author Dr Michael A.McDaniel of the Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond emphasized that these findings represent a general trend， and people with small heads should not automatically believe they are less intelligent. For instance， Albert Einstein’s brain was “not particularly large”， McDaniel noted. “There’s some relationship between brain size and intelligence on the average， but there’s plenty of room for exceptions，” he said.
    Interest in the relationship between brain size and intelligence grew in the1830s，  when German anatomist(解剖学家) Frederich Tiedmann wrote that he believed there was “an unquestionable connection between the size of the brain and the mental energy displayed by the individual man”. Since that statement， scientists have conducted numerous studies to determine if Tiedmann’s  assertion was， in fact， correct. Most studies have looked into the link between head size and intelligence. More recently， however， researchers have published additional studies on brain size and intelligence， measured using MRI scan(核磁共振成像扫描).
    For his study， McDaniel analyzed more than 20 studies that looked into the relationship between brain size and intelligence in a total of 1,530 people. The studies showed that on the average， people with larger brain volume tended to be more intelligent. The relationship between brain volume and intelligence was stronger in women than men， and in adults than in children. McDaniel notes in the journal Intelligence.
    McDaniel is not sure why the relationship was stronger for adults and women. “Other research has shown that women， on the average， tend to have smaller brains than men， but score just as well—if not higher—in tests of intelligence，” he said.
    McDaniel insisted that the relationship between brain size and intelligence is not a “perfect” one. “One can certainly find lots of examples of smaller-sized people who are highly intelligent，” he said， “But， on the average， the relationship holds.”
    小题1:. What does the text mainly talk about？
    A．MRI scans are applied to intelligence.
    B．On the average， a bigger brain means higher IQ.
    C．Dr McDaniel did well in his intelligence study.
    D．Scientists are interested in Tiedmann’s idea.
    小题2: By mentioning Albert Einstein， the writer wants to show　　　　.
    A．Albert Einstein was intelligent
    B．the result of intelligence test was false
    C．being hard working is more important than intelligence
    D．brain size doesn’t necessarily decide the level of intelligence
    小题3: The underlined word “assertion” in Para. 3 probably means “　　　　”.
    A. experiment   B. statement  C proof      D. demand
    小题4: After Frederich Tiedmann wrote his article，　　　　.
    A．many scientists agreed with him
    B．numerous studies have failed to prove his idea
    C．MRI scan became popularly used
    D．lots of researchers were interested in the connections between head size and intelligence
    小题5: According to the text， Dr McDaniel’s study　　　　.
    A．proves Tiedmann’s idea was completely true
    B．shows women are smarter than men
    C．involves many studies and a lot of people
    D．explains why people with smaller brains are clever

    Parents are a child’s first teachers. But some parents never learned from good examples. In New York City, a nonprofit agency called Covenant House tries to help homeless young mothers become good parents.
    The twelve or so teenagers who live at the shelter attend parenting classes four days a week. The class is called Mommy and Me. Teacher Delores Clemens is a mother of five and a grandmother. She teaches basic skills, like how to give a baby a bath and how to dress a baby depending on the season.
    She remembers one student who learned from her mother not to pick up a crying baby. The mother said that would only make the child needy and overly demanding. Delores Clemens says, “that's not true. You have to hold your baby! He is crying for a reason. If you never pick him up, he's going to keep crying. Pick your baby up. Cuddle your baby. Hug him! And she started to do that. They just want a little cuddling and a little love. And it works!”
    Delores Clemens says her students also learn how to be good mothers by letting themselves be mothered. Around three hundred fifty teenage mothers graduate from Covenant House's Mommy and Me class every year.
    In class, with her baby son is Natasha. She lived on the streets. She is glad not only for the warmth and shelter of Covenant House. As she told reporter Adam Phillips, she is also glad for the help they offer in seeking a more secure life.
    The World Health Organization says the United States has forty-one births for every one thousand girls age fifteen to nineteen. That is higher than other developed countries, as well as some developing ones. By comparison, northern neighbor Canada has fourteen births and southern neighbor Mexico has eighty-two.

    Lichens (地衣) are difficult to see. They don’t move. They often mix into the living place. You might not even recognize one if you are looking right at it.
    Lichens live on rocks, branches, houses, and even metal street signs. You can find these colorful organisms (微生物) almost everywhere — from deserts to rainforests, and from Antarctica to Africa. They’ve traveled in outer space, and some scientists think there might even be lichens on Mars.
    What you probably don’t realize is that a lichen is more than a single thing. It includes two different types of living organisms: a fungus (菌类) and an alga (藻类). Neither of these organisms is a plant, so the lichen isn’t a plant either.
    Through photosynthesis (光合作用), the alga gets the sun’s energy to make food for the fungus, which is the place for the alga to live in. However, the alga cannot leave the fungus.
    Around the world, scientists have found tens of thousands of types of lichens. Many may not even have been discovered yet. As scientists continue to find new kinds of lichens, they are also working to understand how they are connected to one another. By putting together a lichen family tree, they hope to understand why so many different types of lichens have grown in so many places around the world.
    Many researchers are trying to understand basic facts about the organisms and their connections. Researchers are also using lichens to examine the health of the environment.
    小题1:What do we know about lichens according to the passage?
    A．They will die if they leave Earth.
    B．There are more lichens than plants on Earth.
    C．They look similar to the environment around them.
    D．They are too small to be easily seen by people.
    小题2:What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
    A．The way lichens live.
    B．The natural environment of lichens.
    C．The way lichens work as organisms.
    D．The family tree of lichens.
    小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT the scientists’ purposes of studying lichens?
    A．To understand basic facts about them.
    B．To creat a lichen family tree.
    C．To understand how lichens are related to each other.
    D．To understand why lichens can live in different places.
    小题4:We can know from the passage that __________.
    A．lichens can be used to better understand the environment
    B．lichens don’t have any differences in colors or sizes
    C．lichens don’t use photosynthesis like a green plant
    D．scientists have discovered every kind of lichen

    Topping the class academically was certainly an advantage. For Nigel, studying was a piece of cake. The reward was certainly much bigger compared to the little effort Nigel had made. It all began when he was selected to help the teachers in the computer laboratories. And the peak of his school career came not when he topped the class but when he was selected for the nationwide competition.
    Unlike everyone else, Nigel wanted to join in the contest because he liked playing with the Lego sets(乐高积木) and making something out of them. Nigel spent two months building his robot. It was during the time that Nigel found out about the big prize for the competition as well as a competitive rival(对手), Alicia, from a neighboring school. His early intentions were forgotten. Getting the thousand-dollar prize was more important than anything else. Nigel decided to make friends with Alicia. Unaware of his intentions, she told him all about the robot that she had been building for the competition. He even helped her to put the finishing touches(收尾工作) to her robot. He was glad with the way things had progressed. His robot looked even better than Alicia's and it was able to play a ball with its arm, something Alicia had failed to do.
    On the day of the competition, he saw Alicia. Everything became clear the minute she saw him among the competitors. She stared at him, puzzled at first, then angry and finally a look of helplessness came over her.
    The flashbulbs (闪光灯) of the camera exploded in Nigel's face. The robot had performed actions so unique and different that the specialists' judgments were the same. Nigel was so pleased with himself that he did not even notice the girl standing a few feet away from him. Without her, he would never have won the competition.
    小题1:What reward did Nigel receive for doing well in his school work?
    A．He was offered a part-time job.B．He was honored with a scholarship.
    C．He helped his teachers build a robot.D．He helped in the computer laboratories.
    小题2:Nigel's original intention of joining the contest was to ___     .
    A．win honor for his schoolB．be the top student of the school
    C．build a robot with the Lego setsD．win the thousand-dollar prize
    小题3:Why did Nigel help Alicia finish her robot?
    A．He intended to help her.B．He was fond of building robots.
    C．He wanted to be her real friend. D．He didn't want her to suspect (怀疑) him.
    小题4:What is the author's attitude towards Nigel's actions?
    A．Favorable B．Critical (批评的)C．Doubtful D．Sympathetic
