Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given 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, 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(随机地) from the population,it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical (完全相同的) 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 would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth playsa part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.

New research says 35 percent of child deaths worldwide are caused by hunger．The research comes from poor or middle-income countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America．
Robert Black from the' Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland, is the lead writer of the research．He says more than 3.5 million mothers and children under five die in poor countries each year because of hunger．
He says more than two million children die from underdevelopment, either before or after birth．Millions of, others who survive face a lifetime of disabilities or early death and the effects are not just physical．Poor mental development also results from hunger as children grow．Then the cycle of poverty and hunger often continues for their children．
Doctor Black says hungry children are also more likely to have conditions like high blood pressure and heart disease as adults．He says the studies show that food programs need to place the greatest importance on the first two years of life．Hungry children can suffer their whole life damage from age two．
It is high time their diets were improved．Diets should include foods rich in vitamin A and other useful vitamins and minerals．The researchers say early help such as this could reduce child deaths by 25％．
This research has also faced some criticism．A medical aid group says the researchers underestimate(低估)the number of child deaths due to hunger．The researchers say there are findings that support this treatment but more studies are needed to compare it to hospital care．
