Part III Cloze
Directions: There are twenty blanks in the following passage. For each blank
there are four choices. Choose the one that best fits into the passage and then

There are two factors which determine an individual’s intelligence. The first
is the sort of brain he is born 61 . Human brains differ considerably, 62 being
more capable than others. 63 no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an
individual will have a low order of intelligence 64 he has opportunities to
learn. So the second factor is what 65 to the individual—the sort of environment
in which he is brought 66 . If an individual is handicapped (受阻碍) 67 , it is
likely that his brain will 68 to develop and he will 69 attain the level of
intelligence of which he is 70 .
The importance of environment in determining an individual’s intelligence can
be 71 by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and John. When the twins
were three months old, their parents died, and they are placed in 72 foster (寄养)
homes. Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an 73 community with
poor educational 74 . John, 75 , was educated in the home of well-to-do parents
who has been to college. This environmental 76 continued until the twins were 77
their late teens, 78 they were given tests to 79 their intelligence. John’s I.Q.
(智商) was 125, twenty-five points higher than the 80 and fully forty points
higher than his identical brother.

In some countries where racial prejudice is acute, violence has so come to be taken for granted as a means of solving differences, that it is not even questioned. There are countries where the white man imposes his rule by brute force; there are countries where the black man protests by setting fire to
cities and by looting and pillaging. Important people on both sides, who would in other respects appear to be reasonable men, get up and calmly argue in favor of violence – as if it were a legitimate solution, like any other. What is really frightening, what really fills you with despair, is the realization that
when it comes to the crunch, we have made no actual progress at all. We may wear
collars and ties instead of war-paint, but our instincts remain basically
unchanged. The whole of the recorded history of the human race, that tedious
documentation of violence, has taught us absolutely nothing. We have still not
learnt that violence never solves a problem but makes it more acute. The sheer
horror, the bloodshed, the suffering mean nothing. No solution ever comes to
light the morning after when we dismally contemplate the smoking ruins and
wonder what hit us. The truly reasonable men who know where the solutions lie
are finding it harder and herder to get a hearing. They are despised, mistrusted
and even persecuted by their own kind because they advocate such apparently
outrageous things as law enforcement. If half the energy that goes into violent
acts were put to good use, if our efforts were directed at cleaning up the slums
and ghettos, at improving living-standards and providing education and
employment for all, we would have gone a long way to arriving at a solution. Our
strength is sapped by having to mop up the mess that violence leaves in its
wake. In a well-directed effort, it would not be impossible to fulfill the
ideals of a stable social programme. The benefits that can be derived from
constructive solutions are everywhere apparent in the world around us. Genuine
and lasting solutions are always possible, providing we work within the
framework of the law. Before we can even begin to contemplate peaceful
co-existence between the races, we must appreciate each other's problems. And to
do this, we must learn about them: it is a simple exercise in communication, in
exchanging information. "Talk, talk, talk," the advocates of violence say, "all
you ever do is talk, and we are none the wiser." It's rather like the story of
the famous barrister who painstakingly explained his case to the judge. After
listening to a lengthy argument the judge complained that after all this talk,
he was none the wiser. "Possible, my lord," the barrister replied, "none the
wiser, but surely far better informed." Knowledge is the necessary prerequisite
to wisdom: the knowledge that violence creates the evils it pretends to
solve.
