VIII/ ( ID: 85300 ) Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer 
sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions from 56 to 65. 
 Psychologists have debated a long time about whether a child’s upbringing can give it the ability 
to do outstandingly well. Some think that it is impossible to develop genius and say that it is simply 
something a person is born with. Others, however, argue that the potential for great achievement can be 
develop. The truth lies somewhere between these two extremes. 
 It seems very obvious that being born with the right qualities from gifted parents will increase a 
child’s ability to do well. However, this ability will be fully realized only with the right upbringing and 
opportunities. As one psychologist says, “To have a fast car, you need both a good engine and fuel.” 
 Scientists have recently assessed intelligence, achievement, and ability in 50 sets of identical twins 
that were separated shortly birth and brought up by different parents. They found that achievement was 
based on intelligence, and later influenced by the child’s environment. 
 One case involving very intelligent twins was quoted. One of the twins received a normal 
upbringing, and performed well. The other twin, however, was brought up by extremely supportive 
parents and given every possible opportunity to develop its abilities. That twin, though starting out with 
the same degree of intelligence as the other, performed even better. 
 This case reflects the general principle of intelligence and ability. The more favorable the 
environment, the more a child’s intelligence and ability are developed. However, there is no link between 
intelligence and socioeconomic level of a child’s family. In other words, it does not matter how poor or 
how rich a family is, as this does not affect the intelligence. 
 Gifted people can not be created by supportive parents, but they can be developed by them. One 
professor of music said that outstanding musicians usually started two or three years earlier than ordinary 
performers, often because their parents had recognized their ability. These musicians then needed at least 
ten years’ hard work and training in order to reach the level they were capable of attaining. 
 People who want to have very gifted children are given the following advice: 
- Marry an intelligent person. 
- Allow children to follow their own interests rather than the interests of the parents. 
- Start a child’s education early but avoid pushing the child too hard. 
- Encourage children to play; for example, playing with musical instrument is essential for a child who 
wants to become an outstanding musician. 
Question 56: When scientists studied intelligence and ability in twins, they found that ______. 
 A. different twins generally have different levels of ability 
 B. ability depends mainly on intelligence and achievement 
 C. intelligence and development are irrelevant to ability 
 D. ability depends both on intelligence and environment

 A. They practice playing their instruments for many years 
 B. They were exceptionally intelligent and artistic
