13.In the clinic(诊所),I asked if Michael could be retested,so the specialist tested him again.To my(61)disappointment(disappoint),it was the same score.
Later that evening,I tearfully told Frank(62)whatI had learned that day.After talking it over,we agreed that we knew our son much(63)better(good) than the IQ test.We decided that Michael's score must have been(64)amistake and we should treat him naturally as usual.
We moved to Indiana in 1962,and Michael studied at Concordia High School in the same year.He got good(65)grades(grade) in the school,especially in biology and chemistry,which was a great comfort.
Michael entered Indiana University the 1965 as a pre-medical student,soon afterwards,his teachers permitted him(66)to take(take) more courses than required.In 1968,he(67)was accepted(accept) by the School of Medicine,Yale University.
(68)Interestingly(interest),Michael then asked for another IQ test.We went to the same clinic,(69)wherehe had received the test eighteen years before.This time Michael scored 126,an increase of 3 6 points.A result like(70)thatwas supposed to be impossible.

分析 本文讲述了对于智商测试的结果不代表一切的故事.在那一天我了解到儿子的智商测试结果很差,我很难过,但是我们认为自己对于儿子的了解比智商测试要更好,所以我们认为那是一个错误的结果,我们按照普通人的方式养育着孩子,结果孩子的成绩很好,最后在耶鲁大学毕业.有趣地是,米歇尔要求做了另外一次智商测试,他在18年前的那个诊所接受了一次测试,结果是米歇尔的智商增加了36分,这被认为是不可能的.

解答 61.disappointment.考查固定句式.to ones disappointment 表示"让某人失望的是".
62.what.考查宾语从句的引导词.宾语从句I had learned that day缺少宾语,表示"在那一天我了解到的事",所以用what.    
63.better.考查形容词的比较级.根据 than the IQ test可知用比较级better,表示"我们对于儿子的了解比智商测试要更好".      
64.a.考查冠词.表示Michael's score 是一个错误,用a mistake.      
65.grades.考查名词复数.根据后面的especially in biology and chemistry可知儿子不是只学习了一科,所以用名词复数grades.
66.to take.考查非谓语动词.固定句式 permit sbto do sth表示"允许某人做某事".     
67.was accepted.考查谓语动词的被动语态.根据状语by the School of Medicine,Yale University 可知主语he和谓语动词accept之间是被动关系,而且本文讲述的是过去的事,所以用一般过去时态的被动语态.
68.Interestingly.考查副词.修饰整个句子Michael then asked for another IQ test,用副词,表示"有趣地是,米歇尔要求做了另外一次智商测试".  
69.where.考查定语从句的关系词.先行词是the same clinic,非限制性定语从句he had received the test eighteen years before缺少状语,所以关系词用where,表示"他在18年前的那个诊所接受了有一次测试".  
70.that.考查指示代词.在下一句代指This time Michael scored 126,an increase of 3 6 points这件事,用that.表示"米歇尔的智商增加了36分是不可能的".

点评 考查语法填空.
英文的句号和逗号在语句的运用中有很大的不同,比较下面的句子.
1.Lucy is my friend,who lives in Newyork.(这是一个复合句,所以用关系代词who代指my friend )
2.Lucy is my friend.She lives in Newyork(这是两个简单句,所以用人称代词She 代指my friend )

3.Styrofoam,or polystyrene,is a light-weight material,about 95 percent air,with very good  insulation(隔热) properties,according to Earthsource.org.It is used in products from cups that  keep your drinks hot or cold to packaging material that protects items during shipping.
    With the above good features,Styrofoam still enjoys a bad reputation.It cannot be recycled  without releasing dangerous pollution into the air.The U.S.Environmental Protection Agency says it is the fifth-largest creator of harmful waste.
    But now the common worms which are usually disgusting can come to the rescue,specifically,mealworms.Scientists from the U.S.and China have discovered that mealworms can digest plastic.One mealworm can digest a pill-sized amount of plastic a day.Study co-author Wei-Min Wu says that in 24 hours,the plastic is turned into carbon dioxide.
   Since Styrofoam has no nutrition at all,are the worms hurt by eating plastic?Much to the scientists'surprise,the study found that worms eating Styrofoam were as healthy as worms eating bran(谷糠).
    The researchers will study the worm's eating habits and digesting system,looking to copy the plastic breakdown but on a larger scale.Once the way can be put into practice,it will make a revolutionary difference to the disposal of plastic.
"Solving the issue of plastic pollution is important",says Wu,a Stanford University environmental engineering instructor.After all,our earth is small and landfill space is becoming limited with too much garbage waiting to be dealt with,he says.
    About 33-million tons of plastic are thrown away in the United States every year.Plastic plates,cups and containers take up 25 percent to 30 percent of space in America's landfills.One Styrofoam cup takes more than 1 million years to recycle in a landfill,according to Cleveland State University.
