There are two factors (determine) an individual's intelligence. The first is thesort of brain he is born . Human brains differ (consider), some beingmore capable than others.
howevergood a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low intelligenceunless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens tothe individual—the sort of environment he is brought up. If an individualis handicapped(受阻碍)environmentally，itis (like) that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain thelevel of intelligence of which he is capable.
Theimportance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can(show) by the case of the twins, Peter and Mark. When the twins were threemonths old, parents died, andthey were placed in separate foster homes. Peter was brought up by parents oflow intelligence with poor (education) opportunities. Mark was educated inthe home of welltodo parents had been to college. This environmentaldifference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they weregiven tests to measure their intelligence. Mark's I．Q. was 125, twentyfive points higherthan the average and fully forty points higher than his twin brother.

Answer 1

【答案】determining；with；considerably；But；where；likely；be shown；their；educational；who
【解析】有两种因素(先天因素和后天因素)可决定一个人的智力水平。即使先天因素再好，如果没有后天的学习，没有后天好的学习环境，先天因素也不会得到好的发展。
①determining　考查非谓语动词作定语。被修饰词twofactors与determine为逻辑上的主动关系，故用现在分词作定语。句意：有两个因素决定着一个人的智力水平。
②with　本题以定语从句的形式考查介词。将先行词(thesort of brain) 代入定语从句后为：Heis born (with) the sort of brain.由此可见设空处应为介词with。
③considerably　考查副词。设空处需用副词作状语，修饰动词differ。considerably是副词，意为：相当多地，很，非常。
④But　考查并列连词。前后句之间为转折关系，故用并列连词but。
⑤where　考查定语从句。先行词为environment，将先行词代入定语从句后为He is brought up in the environment.由此可见关系词在定语从句中作地点状语，故设空处应为where。
⑥likely　考查固定表达。“Itis likely that...”为固定句式，意为：……是可能的。
⑦be shown　考查被动语态。show与句子主语The importance of environment in...为被动关系，故用被动语态。
⑧their　考查物主代词。their代替the twins'，作parents的定语。
⑨educational　考查形容词。设空处后为名词，由此可判断设空处应用形容词作定语⑩who　考查定语从句。先行词为welltodoparents，关系词在定语从句中作主语且指“人”，故填who。
