2、em are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise.

6、here are no answers to these questions参考答案:A解析:【答案】A【解析】细节题，问：“第一段提出的问题是为了_。”需要从文章的结构来分析，文章第一段围绕聪明与平庸的主题提出了许多问题，并说明这些问题的答案尚不明朗，第二段则谈论聪明的因素有哪些，第三段是告诉父母，为了让孩子更聪明，应当如何做。可见，第一段提出了一些与主题相关的、令人感兴趣的问题作为铺垫。由此选A，“为了引出主题，即什么因素形成聪明的大脑”。 2、According to the context we can guess that a genius is _ while an idiot i

8、? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool?“是什么原因，使得有的人比别人更聪明？是什么原因，让有的人成为像聪明绝顶的爱因斯坦那样的genius（本题考点），而让有的人却成为傻瓜？”文中和genius对应的词是fool，因此idiot与fool是同义词，表示“傻瓜，笨蛋”，而genius与fool是反义词，表示“聪明人”，根据分析应选C，“非常聪明的人，愚蠢或迟钝的人”。A，“正常人，有趣的人”，B，“强壮的人，虚弱的人”，D，“有名的人，普通人”

10、为天才，因此，这道题考察考生对全文主题的把握，需要通读全文后选择答案。第一段说，如何成为天才一直是人们津津乐道的话题。第二段认为除了天生聪慧，智商还应当得到后天的锻炼。第三段认为父母应当注意自己的语言，跟孩子多说鼓励的话。根据全文，选项D包含了成为天才的两方面因素：天生拥有聪明的大脑与后天的勤奋，应选D。 4、It is better for parents _.
