　　Young Adults Who Exercise Get Higher IQ Scores

　　Young adults who are fit have a higher IQ 1 and are more (1) to go on to university，reveals a major new study2 carried out at the Sahlgrenska Academy3 and Sahlgrenska University Hospital.

　　The results were recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS)4.The study involved 1.2 million Swedish men doing military service who were born between 1950 and 1976.The research group analysed the (2 )of both physical and IQ tests the youngsters took right after they started serving the army.

　　The study shows a clear link (3) good physical fitness and better results for the IQ test.The strongest links are for (4) thinking and verbal comprehension.But it is only fitness that plays a (5) in the results for the IQ test5，and not strength.“Being fit means that you also have good heart and lung (6) and that your brain gets plenty of (7) ，"says Michael Nilsson，professor at the Sahlgrenska Academy and chief physician at the Sahlgrenska University Hospital.“This may be one of the reasons (8 )we can see a clear link with fitness，but not with muscular (9 ).We are also seeing that there are growth factors that are important.”

　　By analysing data for twins，the researchers have been (10 )to determine that it is primarily environmental factors and not genes that explain the link between fitness and a (11 )IQ.

　　“We have also shown that those youngsters who (12) their physical fitness between the ages of 15 and 18 increase their cognitive performance，”says Mafia Aberg，researcher at the Sahlgrenska Academy and physician at Aby health centre.“This being the case6 ，physical (13) is a subject that has an important place in schools，and is an absolute must7 if we want to do well in maths and other theoretical subjects."

　　The researchers have also compared the results from fitness tests (14 )national service8 with the socio-economic status of the men later in (15 ).Those who were fit at 18 were more likely to go into higher education，and many secured more qualified jobs.

　　詞匯：

　　proceedings n.學(xué)報(bào)，論文集 Swedish adj.瑞典的

　　comprehension n.理解 muscular adj.肌肉的

　　注釋：

　　1.IQ：智商。IQ是intelligence quotient的縮寫。

　　2.reveals a major new study：一項(xiàng)主要的新研究顯示。這是一個(gè)倒裝句，主語是a major new study，謂語是reveals。第三段出現(xiàn)的“says Michael Nilsson”和第五段出現(xiàn)的“says Maria

　　Aberg"也是同一類型的倒裝句。

　　3.Sahlgrenska Academy：瑞典哥德堡大學(xué)健康科學(xué)研究院

　　4.the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences(PNAS)：美國國家科學(xué)院學(xué)報(bào)

　　5.But it is only fitness that plays a role in the results for the IQ test：“it is...that"是強(qiáng)調(diào)式句子結(jié)構(gòu)，被強(qiáng)調(diào)的部分是only fitness。強(qiáng)調(diào)前的句子是："But only fitness plays a role in the results for the IQ test."。第四段中出現(xiàn)的“it is primarily environmental factors and not genes that explain the link between fitness…”那個(gè)句子也屬強(qiáng)調(diào)式句子結(jié)構(gòu)。

　　6.This being the case：倘若情況果真如此，因此

　　7.must：用作名詞，意思是“必須”。

　　8.national service：兵役，國民服役

　　答案與題解：

　　1.C本文第一句就將主題和盤托出：Young adults who are fit have a higher IQ(身體健康的年輕人智商也高)。根據(jù)此論斷可以推斷，智商高的人進(jìn)入大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)的可能性也高。讀完全文便可知這個(gè)推斷是對(duì)的。所以，本題的答案只能是likely。

　　2.D第二段第二句說明，該項(xiàng)研究的樣本是1950-1976年之間入伍的120萬新兵。新兵們報(bào)到時(shí)接受了體格測(cè)試和智商測(cè)試。研究人員對(duì)這兩類測(cè)試的數(shù)據(jù)進(jìn)行了分析。四個(gè)選

　　項(xiàng)只有results符合這層意思。answers(答案)、works(作品)、scores(分?jǐn)?shù))都不合適。

　　3.B 上文多次論及身體健康與智商之間的關(guān)系。本句又重述兩者的聯(lián)系。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中有個(gè)between，答案非它莫屬。among是“在……之中”，數(shù)量超過2個(gè)人或2件事時(shí)才用among。本句只說兩者的關(guān)系，所以不能選among。選項(xiàng)behind和without的意思與上下文搭配不上。

　　4.A填詞所在的句子的意思是，身體健康與某種思維和語言理解能力有關(guān)。某種思維是哪一種思維呢?我們可能會(huì)想到科學(xué)思維、邏輯思維、抽象思維等等。一查四個(gè)選項(xiàng)，發(fā)現(xiàn)有l(wèi)ogical，它就是答案了。其他三個(gè)選項(xiàng)critical(臨界的，評(píng)論的)、typical(典型的)和positive(正面的)與上下文的意思相去甚遠(yuǎn)，不會(huì)是答案。

　　5.C play a role是固定詞組，填入所在句子后，上下文的意思連貫，所以是答案。play a place沒有這種搭配。play a game(玩游戲)和play a trick(惡作劇)與上下文的意思搭不上。

　　6.A 由于“Being fit means that you also have good heart and 1ung…”說的是，健康意味著心肺功能好，所以選項(xiàng)disease(疾病)和treatment(治療)可以排除，而good heart and lung后接shape(形狀)，意思是“好的心肺形狀”，這與健康的關(guān)系也遠(yuǎn)了一些。本題只有capacity(能力)才是答案。

　　7.C如前所述，身體健康意味著心肺好，這與大腦有什么關(guān)系呢?常識(shí)告訴我們，呼吸順暢，通過肺部進(jìn)入血液的氧氣也多;心功能良好，就能有效地將帶有氧氣的新鮮血液源源不斷地輸送到大腦，大腦就能活躍地工作。所以，選項(xiàng)oxygen是答案。

　　8.B reason(s)后面的定語從句中的關(guān)系副詞要用why。

　　9.C 第三段第二句給本題的答案提供了線索：“But it is only fitness that plays a role in the results for the IQ test，and not strength.(是健康，而不是力量，對(duì)智商測(cè)試的結(jié)果起了作用)”。本題的句子重復(fù)了上述論斷，所以，缺失的詞應(yīng)該是strength。這一次作者把strength說得更清楚，指的是muscular strength(肌肉力量)。本題的答案C。

　　10.A本句的意思是，研究人員分析雙胞胎智商上的差異來說明智商差異不會(huì)來自基因，因?yàn)殡p胞胎的基因是相同的;智商差異來自后天的環(huán)境因素。填入本句最適合的詞是able。clever，lucky和clear都不合適，因?yàn)檠芯咳藛T只有通過分析數(shù)據(jù)才能夠得出結(jié)論，而不是靠幸運(yùn)、聰明等。

　　11.D 文章反復(fù)論述，一個(gè)人身體健康，其智商也高。本句前面用的是fitness(健壯體魄)，后面出現(xiàn)的是IQ，修飾它的形容詞就一定是higher。

　　12.B 根據(jù)全文的主要論點(diǎn)進(jìn)行判斷，本題的句子表達(dá)的意思一定是增強(qiáng)體質(zhì)與提高智商成正比。所以，填入句子的動(dòng)詞的詞義一定與提高和改善認(rèn)知能力(cognitive performance)有關(guān)。根據(jù)這一推論，入選的選項(xiàng)只有improve。

　　13.D研究一下句子“This being the case，physical is a subject…"，就知道physical加上要填入空格中的詞應(yīng)該是一門學(xué)科(subject)的名稱。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，只有physical education(體育)是門學(xué)科，所以，答案是D。

　　14.D 第二段曾說到新兵報(bào)到入伍時(shí)，接受了體格測(cè)試，本題的句子用的是復(fù)數(shù)形式的tests，說明他們?cè)诜燮陂g可能接受多次體格檢查，所以要選durng(national service)，而before、after、without都與上述意思不配合。

　　15.B研究人員將新兵報(bào)到入伍時(shí)體格測(cè)試和智商測(cè)試的結(jié)果和他們后來的社會(huì)經(jīng)濟(jì)地位進(jìn)行了比較。比較的是哪方面的社會(huì)經(jīng)濟(jì)地位呢? 最合理的選擇是later in life(后來的生活中)。而later in marriage(后來的婚姻中)、later in residence(后來的居住中)或1ater in service(后來的服務(wù)中)與社會(huì)經(jīng)濟(jì)地位搭配，顯得十分勉強(qiáng)，所以不會(huì)是答案
