【原文】

Bruce and Jenny both wanted to be the class monitor. This was a big job as the monitor had to help organize special activities for the class, such as holiday parties, picnics and field trips.

Bruce really wanted to be chosen as monitor. So he made a speech, telling the class what he would do if he succeeded. For example, Bruce wanted to collect old books among the students and gave them to poor children. He also wanted to recycle the used bottles to make money for a trip to the beach. Bruce had been working hard for his dream.

Jenny hadn't done much for her purpose. She thought she had a lot of friends who would choose her. Instead of a speech, she held a big party at her home.

Several days later, the result came out. Bruce won.

【題目】Read the passage and answer the questions.

Do you think you are more intelligent than your parents and grandparents? According to James Flynn, a professor at a New Zealand university, you are! Over the course of the last century, people’s IQ test scores have gotten steadily higher --- on average, three points higher each decade. This improvement is known as the “Flynn effect”, and scientists want to know what is behind it. IQ tests are designed to measure general intelligence rather than knowledge. Flynn believes that intelligence partly comes from our parents and partly is the result of our environment, but the improvement in test scores has been happening too quickly to be explained by heredity (遺傳). So what has occurred in the 20th century to help people achieve higher scores?

Scientists have proposed several explanations for the Flynn effect. Some suggest that the improved test scores simply reflect an increased exposure to tests in general and the learning of test-taking techniques that help us perform better on any test. Others have pointed to better nutrition. Babies now are born larger, healthier, and with more brain development than in the past. Another suggested explanation is a change in educational styles, with teachers encouraging children to learn by discovering things for themselves rather than just memorizing information, which improves their problem-solving skills.

Flynn has limited the possible explanations after carefully examining test data and discovering that the improvement in scores has taken place in only certain parts of the IQ test. Test-takers are not doing better on the maths or vocabulary sections of the test; they are doing better on the sections requiring reasoning and problem solving. For example, one part of the test shows a set of shapes, and test-takers must find the patterns and connections between them.

According to Flynn, this visual intelligence improves as the amount of technology in our lives increases. Every time you play a computer game, you are exercising exactly the kind of thinking and problem solving that helps you do well on one kind of intelligence test. So are you really smarter than your parents? In one very specific way, you may be.

Questions

【1】Does Flynn think you are smarter than your parents and grandparents?

【2】What do IQ tests focus on, general intelligence or knowledge?

【3】How do educational styles help people do better in the test according to some scientists?

【4】Which sections did the test takers do better in the test on?

【5】Why does the writer mention computer games?

【6】Do you agree with Flynn?Why or why not?

【題目】 What do you do in a situation like this? You're eating dinner with friends at a nice restaurant. You're having a great time when a phone rings at the table next to you. A man takes out his phone and starts talking loudly about his problems he latest met. He talks for almost ten minutes! This happens all the time on buses or metros, in restaurants or supermarkets, nearly everywhere!

Many people find cell phones useful in their day-to-day lives. But all of us have ever sat next to someone talking too loudly on a cell phone.

Off means off!

Respect the rules of restaurants and other public places. If a sign says "turn off cell phones," don't use your phone.

Keep private conversations private!

Speak softly and for a short time. Try to move away from other people.

Lights off, phone off!

Never take calls in a theatre or at the movies.

Pay attention!

Talking on a cell phone while driving is dangerous. And watch where you're going when you're walking down the street and talking on the phone.
