(观点句,在内容上与E呼应) 。。With the move toward comprehensive education and the development of unstreamed classes, fewer children will be given the label “Low IQ” which must inevitably condemn a child in his own, if not society’s eye. The idea that we can teach children to be intelligent in the same way that we can teach them reading or arithmetic is accepted by more and more people.
4. E. 分析:段首句(观点句)的句意与E一致,而且随后的句子中与E中的“学校教育”相呼应的词语和结构--classes, teach children.

5. It was once believed ___, and thus we can tell how successful he/she will be in the future according to his/her intelligence.
5. D.分析:空格处需要真正的主语(It是形式主语),因此根据语法结构判断D是答案。该句大意是“人们曾经一度相信,智力是一个孩子天生所具有的,因为我们可以根据他/她的智力水平判断他/她在将来是否会取得成功。”
A.born to be more intelligent or less intelligent
B.have a better chance to develop his intelligence

A.born to be more intelligent or less intelligent
B.have a better chance to develop his intelligence
C.taught to be more intelligent
E.and because of the lack of communication with his classmates
7. It can be inferred from the passage that a child will ___ if he has more opportunities to communicate with others by means of language.

A.born to be more intelligent or less intelligent
C.taught to be more intelligent
E.and because of the lack of communication with his classmates
8. Children were not just ___, but they can be taught to be more intelligent at school.
