When we talk about intelligence we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows to do.For example, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can do, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn’t sure how it all works out, but at least he tries. And if he cannot make things work out right, he doesn’t feel ashamed that he failed, he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook in life, a special feeling about life, and a special way of how he fits into it.If you look at children, you’ll see a great difference between what we call ”bright” children and “not bright” children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amounts of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life—he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general1、According to this passage, intelligence is the ability to______.A、work by oneself do well in anyB、situationC、know what is right and wrongD、adapt oneself to a new situation2、In a new situation, an intelligent person ____________.A、knows more about what might happen to himB、is well-prepared for his actionC、pays greater attention to the situationD、completely ignores himself3、If an intelligent person failed, he would ________A、feel ashamed about the failureB、learn from his experiencesC、find out what he can’t doD、make sure what’s wrong withhis outlook in life4、An intelligent child ________A、learns more about himselfB、shows interest in things around himC、studies everything that may be interestingD、looks down upon unintelligent children5、Why does an unintelligent child seem to have a wall between him and life in general?A、Because he can hardly see the outside world.B、Because life is far away from him.C、Because he knows nothing about life in general.D、Because he has little interest in things around himself.

共用题干The Cold PlacesThe Arctic is a polar region.It surrounds the North Pole.Like Antarctica,the Arctic is a land of ice and snow.Antarctica holds the record for a low temperature reading-125 degrees Fahrenheit below zero. Reading of 85 degrees below zero is common in both the Arctic and Antarctica.Winter temperatures average 30 degrees below zero in the Arctic .At the South Pole the winter average is about 73 degrees below zero.One thing alone makes it almost impossible for men to live in Antarctica and in parts of the Arctic .This one thing is the low temperature-the killing chill of far North and the polar South.To survive,men must wear the warmest possible clothing. They must build windproof shelters .They must keep heaters going at all times.Not ever for a moment can they be unprotected against the below-zero temperatures.Men have a way of providing for themselves.Polar explorers wrap themselves in warm coats and furs .The cold makes life difficult. But the explorers can stay alive.What about animals?Can they survive?Do we find plants?Do we find life in the Arctic and in Antarctica?Yes,we do. There is life in the oceans.There is life on land.Antarctica,as we have seen,is a cold place indeed.But this has not always been the case.Expedition scientists have discovered that Antarctica has not always been a frozen continent. At one time the weather in Antarctica may have much like our own.Explorers have discovered coal in Antarctica. This leads them to believe that Antarctica at one time was a land of swamps and forests.Heat and moisture must have kept the trees in the forests alive.At one time,the weather in Antarctica was so warm and damp that trees grew there.A: RightB: WrongC: Not mentioned

问答题Directions: In this section, there is one passage followed by 5 questions. Read the passage carefully, then answer the questions in as few words as possible (not more than 10 words). Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. Questions 1-5 are based on the following passage. If you were on a distant planet, and if you had instruments that could tell you the composition of Earth’s atmosphere, how would you know there was life on this planet?Water in the atmosphere would suggest there could be water on the surface, and as we all know water is considered crucial to life. But water would only suggest that life is possible. It wouldn’t prove it’s there. Carbon? That basic component of “life as we know it?” Not necessarily. A diamond is pure carbon, and it may be pretty, but it isn’t alive. What really sets Earth apart is nitrogen, which makes up 80 percent of the planet’s atmosphere. And it’s there only because there is abundant life on Earth, say scientists at the University of Southern California The report grew out of a class discussion two years ago in a course taught by Capone and Kenneth Nealson, professor of earth sciences. Students were asked to come up with different ideas about searching for life on other planets. What is a distinct “signature,” as Capone puts it, that would show there is life on another planet? That’s a question that has been kicked around in many quarters in recent decades, especially since all efforts to find some form of life, no matter whether on Mars or in the distant reaches of space, have failed. At least so far. The current effort to search for some evidence of life on Mars focuses primarily on the search for water, because it has long been believed that water, or at least some fluid, is necessary for the chemical processes that lead life to take place. But that’s probably the wrong approach, the USC group argues. “It’s hard to imagine life without water, but it’s easy to imagine water without life,” says Nealson, who was on the Mars team before moving to USC. But nitrogen would be a much clearer signature of life. Only about 2 percent to 3 percent of the Martian atmosphere is nitrogen. That’s just a trace, and it probably means there is no life on Mars today, and if there was in the past, it probably ended many, many years ago. But, the USC team adds quickly, that doesn’t mean there’s no life anywhere else in the universe. They don’t know where, of course, but they may have found a way to narrow down the search. Look first for nitrogen, then look for biological activity that should be there. So if life exists elsewhere, and is similar to life as we know it, there should be nitrogen, and that’s what we should be looking for first, the researchers say. If they don’t find nitrogen on Mars, Capone says, “that will probably bring us to the conclusion that there likely never was life on Mars.” But how about elsewhere? Could this technique be used to search for life in other solar systems? Maybe. It might be possible to detect a nitrogen-rich atmosphere around a planet orbiting another star, but not yet. Current instruments aren’t that sensitive. If they ever are, the search for life might be narrowed down to the most promising prospects, chiefly because of the presence of nitrogen. And won’t that be fun! Questions: 1．What can suggest life is possible but cannot be proved according to the author? 2．What is a clear “signature” of life on another planet according to Capone? 3．What is considered as a wrong way to search for evidence of life on Mars? 4．What can probably prove there is no life on Mars today based on the new theory? 5．Why is it impossible to use the new technique to search for life in other solar systems now?
