Little Mark is only 6, but he has an IQ of 200, a genius among geniuses. But his intelligence comes at a cost. His parents must keep him intellectually simulated(啟發(fā))while making sure he is like any other little boy.

Mark has been attracted by the way how the world works since he was a baby. When he was 3, Mark was reading fluently, mostly self-taught. His parents haven't been able to keep him away from books since.

"I tried many times to stop him reading. We worry about his crazy fond of reading because he constantly wants to read every-thing whatever it is.”

A psychologist at the Centre for gifted children tested Mark and gave him an IQ of 200. The average child of Mark's age has an IQ of 100. At 200, Mark is a genius-even compared with other child geniuses.

"With children like Mark you can tell that's a bright child as soon as they walk in. They just have this sort of intensity, and maybe they're not so good at communicating with people," the psychologist said. "He will never fit perfectly into a class where he's with children of his age.”But Mark's mother worries about the "socially isolated" labels. "Nobody wants their child to grow up with that image. I want him to communicate with others freely, but not to be frustrated academically, so it's really hard to find a balance," she says.

Helen Dudeney from the Talented and Gifted Children Association says Mark is one in a million with such a high IQ. She points out that geniuses are still rare and difficult for the public education system to handle. "The lack of coping comes because teachers aren't trained in teaching gifted children," says Dudeney.

Helen believes it's also extremely important for them to be recognized and supported in their talents. Mark's parents are trying to figure out how best to help Mark. At the moment, there are few options. Mark finds first year work boring and simple, but he must learn to complete the work. His mother says, "We just want to be happy. Just to have a happy childhood and want to go to school every day.”

1.By saying "But his intelligence comes at a cost. ",the author means that        

A.Mark must pay for his intelligence at a high price

B.Mark's intelligence brings him negative effects at the same time

C.Mark's intelligence results from his parents

D.Mark's parents make Mark clever at all costs

2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?      

A.Mark's parents are very satisfied with his love for reading.

B.Mark began to teach himself reading at the age of 3.

C.Many child geniuses are not good at communicating with others.

D.It is hard for parents to bring up a genius.

3.If there are 6. 6 billion people in the world, the number of geniuses with an IQ of 200 will be

________.

A.a(chǎn)bout 4,400

B.a(chǎn)bout 5,500

C.a(chǎn)bout 6,600

D.a(chǎn)bout 7,700

4.What would be the best title for the passage?        

A.A genius' craziness for books

B.The life of the genius' parents

C.The burden of being gifted

D.The characteristics of Mark

Many of us like cooking but never have much time for it. Helen Fry’s new book Quick Cooking has been specially written for busy people. It has over 1,000 recipes, from the famous Spanish gazpacho to Swedish smorgasbord. The book is well written and the photographs and drawings are clear. (They are like those in the excellent little Quick Dressmaking and Quick Gardening.) The book has a strong plastic cover. It is easy to find your way around it too. And busy people, notice this! Mrs. Fry tells you how much time you need in order to get each dish ready.

Quick Cooking has 4 parts, one for each season. This helps you to use fresh fruit and vegetables when they are cheaper—and, of course, better. There are a lot of exciting ideas from foreign countries, and most of the recipes are easy to follow. You take something simple like a chicken or some cheese, and make and unusual dish out of it. For example, there are no fewer than 40 recipes for eggs! Mrs. Fry does not plan complete meals for the “quick book”. The beginners will have to find out a lot of things for himself—or herself. But this ought not to be difficult with such a good book. I wanted to try many of the recipes as soon as I read them. For people with little spare time Helen Fry’s Quick Cooking is excellent value.

We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes are about people.“Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” “And Paul, why didn’t you pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad.But when we look back, it’s too late.

Why do we go wrong about our friends-or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning.And if we don’t really listen we miss the feeling behind the words.Suppose someone tells you, “You’re a lucky dog, ”and that’s being friendly.But “l(fā)ucky dog”? There’s a bit of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn’t see it himself.But bringing in the “dog” bit puts you down a little, what he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck.

“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another noise that says one thing and means another.It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole.But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn’t important.It’s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven’t got a date for Saturday night.

How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.

1.This passage is mainly about ______.

A.how to interpret what people say

B.what to do when you listen to others talking

C.why we go wrong with people and how to avoid these mistakes
