Questions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:
Going to court can be frightening, especially if you are a child. You may have to stand up in the witness box, and swear to tell the truth and answer questions in front of a crowd of adults. It would be even more frightening if you were the victim of a crime and you had to sit in the same courtroom with the person accused of attacking you, for instance. So the law in Britain has made it easier for children to act as witnesses. Children are allowed to tell what they know, from another room in the same courthouse. This way they do not have to face all those people in the courtroom.
It works on a closed-circuit (闭路) television link, which means that the TV only operates inside the court. The child witness sits in a room with a social worker in front of a TV camera. Everyone in the courtroom can see the child on a TV screen, but the child can only see the judge and the lawyers who will ask him or her questions. The system has been so successful that it will be extended to more courts this year.
Another way to make it easy for a child to act as a witness is to set up a screen in the courtroom around the witness box so that the child cannot see the defendant (^被告).
Information given by children can be very important to a court trial, but before 1988 the law did not really recognize that children told the truth. It stated that anything a child said in court had to be supported by other evidence of the case.

There are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. 76) Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a lower order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. 77) So the second factor is what happens to the individual-the sort of environment in which he is brought up. If an individual is handicapped 智力低下的) environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.
The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical 同卵的) twins, Peter and Mark. 78) Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate homes. Peter was brought up by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was brought up in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to school. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. 79) This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Mark's I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. 80) Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.
