Many peple cnfuse hard-wrking peple with wrkahlics(工作狂). Hw culd a persn tell that he/ she is a wrkahlic? A wrkahlic wrks lng hurs, at the expense f persnal relatinships and health. When nt wrking, they're thinking abut wrk. Wrk influences their md: When wrk is ging well, they're up; when wrk is ging less well, they're dwn.

Next time yu raise an eyebrw(眉毛) at the views f yur friend, brther, sister r clleague, remember they culd be helping t make yu smarter. New research shws that intelligence is nt fixed but can be imprved thrughut adulthd by family members, bright mates and intellectually challenging careers. The study challenges the cmmnly held belief that intelligence is fixed by the age f abut 18.
Scientific cnsensus(共识) suggests intelligence is cntrlled by genes,with envirnmental factrs such as schling and nutritin playing a part up t this age.After this pint, IQ scres becme steady. But James Flynn, prfessr at the University f Otag in New Zealand, argues that peple can “upgrade” their intelligence thrughut their lives. He believes intellectual stimulatin(刺激) frm ther peple is imprtant as the"brain seems t be rather like a muscle-the mre yu use it, the strnger it gets". Hwever, the ppsite is als true-s peple wh share a hme r wrkplace with their intellectually challenged risk seeing their IO level nsedive as a result.
Prfessr Flynn analysed US intelligence tests frm the last 65 years and created new IQ “age tables". He fund a bright ten-year-ld with brthers and sisters f average intelligence will suffer a five t ten pint IQ disadvantage cmpared t a similar child with equality bright brthers and sisters. Hwever, children with a lw IQ culd get six t eight pints by having brighter brthers and sisters and special educatinal treatment t help pull them up.
Prfessr Flynn cncluded that althugh genetics and early life experiences determine abut 80% f intelligence, the remaining 20% is linked t lifestyle. This means peple can raise their IQ,r allw it t fall, by ten pints r mre.He suggests the best way t imprve IQ levels is t scialise with bright friends, and find an intellectually challenging jb.
12.Accrding t the text, it is cmmnly believed that

C.adults cannt imprve their intelligence D. ding smething challenging is gd fr ne's intelligence
13. What des the underlined wrd “nsedive" in paragraph 2 mst prbably mean?
A.Differ. B. Develp. C. Change. D.Fall.
14. Which f the fllwing can help imprve ne's intelligence accrding t Prfessr Plynn?
A. Making many friends. B. Staying with smart peple.
C. Ding exercise every day. D. Learning frm brthers r sisters.
15. What is the best title fr the text?

Next time yu raise an eyebrw(眉毛) at the views f yur friend, brther, sister r clleague, remember they culd be helping t make yu smarter. New research shws that intelligence is nt fixed but can be imprved thrughut adulthd by family members, bright mates and intellectually challenging careers. The study challenges the cmmnly held belief that intelligence is fixed by the age f abut 18.
Scientific cnsensus(共识) suggests intelligence is cntrlled by genes,with envirnmental factrs such as schling and nutritin playing a part up t this age.After this pint, IQ scres becme steady. But James Flynn, prfessr at the University f Otag in New Zealand, argues that peple can “upgrade” their intelligence thrughut their lives. He believes intellectual stimulatin(刺激) frm ther peple is imprtant as the"brain seems t be rather like a muscle-the mre yu use it, the strnger it gets". Hwever, the ppsite is als true-s peple wh share a hme r wrkplace with their intellectually challenged risk seeing their IO level nsedive as a result.
Prfessr Flynn analysed US intelligence tests frm the last 65 years and created new IQ “age tables". He fund a bright ten-year-ld with brthers and sisters f average intelligence will suffer a five t ten pint IQ disadvantage cmpared t a similar child with equality bright brthers and sisters. Hwever, children with a lw IQ culd get six t eight pints by having brighter brthers and sisters and special educatinal treatment t help pull them up.
Prfessr Flynn cncluded that althugh genetics and early life experiences determine abut 80% f intelligence, the remaining 20% is linked t lifestyle. This means peple can raise their IQ,r allw it t fall, by ten pints r mre.He suggests the best way t imprve IQ levels is t scialise with bright friends, and find an intellectually challenging jb.
