    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

    科目：高中英语 来源：宁夏09-10学年高一下学期期中考试（英语） 题型：阅读理解

    It has always been said that women are not good drivers, because they simply don't have very good driving ability. On the other hand, most car accidents happen to men; very few happen to women.

    From this, we can see that women are much more careful while driving. Another very interesting fact that we should point out is that in the past, women preferred to let their husbands be the only driver in the family rather than have a driving license. Somehow they were prevented from making this step in their lives, but nowadays there are many women that want to pass their driving tests from an early age.

    However, we have to admit that men are more skillful drivers than women, but this does not mean that a woman cannot become a good driver by accumulating (积累) experience. So more and more teenagers and women around the age of thirty now want to pass their driving tests. While taking their driving lessons, they also have a number of special lessons with their parents or somebody in the family that has a driving license, this is just to improve their driving abilities and help them to pass the tests more easily.

    To conclude, we can say that women are not such bad drivers. They just need more experience than men in order to be able to drive well. And on the other hand, there are a number of women that show better driving skills than the men around them.

    67. Compared with the past, nowadays many women___.

    A. prefer to have a driving license

    B. have more accidents while driving

    C. are somehow prevented from driving

    D. are the only driver in the family

    68.  What advantage do women have over men in driving?

    A. They have more skills.

    B. They are much more careful

    C. They know more traffic rules

    D. They have more driving experience

    69.  What can we infer from the passage?

    A. Teenage girls cannot take driving tests.

    B. Men didn't allow women to drive in the past.

    C. With enough experience, women can become good drivers.

    D. Women can easily pass their tests by taking driving lessons.

    70.  The passage mainly talks about___.

    A. women and their driving ability.

    B. men and their driving ability.

    C. why men are better drivers than women.

    D. why more women like to have a driving license

    When women sit together to watch a movie on TV, they usually talk simultaneously（同时的）about a variety of subjects, including children, men, careers and what’ s happening in their lives. When groups of men and women watch a movie together, the men usually end up telling the women to shut up. Men can either talk or watch the screen -- they can’ t do both -- and they don’ t understand that women can. Besides, women consider that the point of all getting together is to have a good time and develop relationships -- not just to sit there like couch potatoes staring at the screen.
    During the ad breaks, a man often asks a woman to explain the plot and tell him where the relationship between the characters is going. He is unable, unlike women, to read the subtle body language signals that reveal how the characters are feeling emotionally. Since women originally spent their days with the other women and children in the group,  they developed the ability to communicate successfully in order to maintain relationships. For a woman, speech continues to have such a clear purpose: to build relationships and make friends. For men, to talk is to relate the facts.
    Men see the telephone as a communication tool for sending facts and information to other people, but a woman sees it as a means of bonding. A woman can spend two weeks on vacation with her girlfriend and, when she returns home, telephone the same girlfriend and talk for another two hours.
    There is no convincing evidence that social conditioning, the fact that girls’ mothers talked them more, is the reason why girls talk more than boys. Psychiatrist Dr Michael Lewis, author Social Behaviour and Language Acquisition, conducted experiments that found mothers talked to and looked at, baby girls more often than baby boys. Scientific evidence shows parents respond the brain bias of their children. Since a girl’ s brain is better organized to send and receive speech, we therefore talk to them more. Consequently, mothers who try to talk to their sons are usually pointed to receive only short grunts in reply

    1. 1.

      While watching TV with others, women usually talk a lot because they______.

      1. A.
        are afraid of awkward silence with their families and friends

        can both talk and watch the screen at the same time
      3. C.
        think they can have a good time and develop relationships
      4. D.
        have to explain the plot and body language to their husbands
    2. 2.

      After a vacation with her girlfriend, a woman would talk to her again on the phone for hours in order to ______.

      1. A.
        experience the happy time again

        keep a close tie with her
      3. C.
        recommend her a new scenic spot
      4. D.
        remind her of something forgotten
    3. 3.

      What does the author want to tell us most?

      1. A.
        Women’ s brains are better organized for language and communication
      2. B.
        Women love to talk because they are more sociable than men
      3. C.
        Men do not like talking because they rely more on facts
      4. D.
        Social conditioning is not the reason why women love talking
    4. 4.

      Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

      1. A.
        Women Are Socially Trained to Talk
      2. B.
        Talking Maintains Relationships
      3. C.
        Women Love to Talk
      4. D.
        Men Talk Differently from Women
