20．As a music teacher for twenty-seven years，I have always known that music touches the soul．It can break through all kinds of barriers（障碍） to reach students in a very special way．It can be the means for each child to find their light．
A few years ago，I was blessed with the opportunity to teach pre-school students one afternoon a week．One of my most memorable（令人难忘的）students was Vanessa．She was five years old，had difficulty walking，and could not speak．We mostly sat on the floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to sit on my lap．One of her favorite songs was John the Rabbit．It was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students clapped two times while singing the repeating phrase，"Oh，yes!"Vanessa liked to put her hands together with mine and clap with me．We performed that song during every class，Vanessa and I clapping together．She never said or sang a word．
One day late in the school year，when the song was finished，Vanessa turned around，looked me in the eye，clapped her tiny hands two times and said the words"Oh，yes!"I opened my mouth and could not spe ak．Through music，we had made a connection．
Several years later，I came across Vanessa on the street in town．I stopped my car and waved to say hello．She waved back with a big smile on her face and then clapped her hands two times，mimicking（模仿） the song we had performed in our music class．This precious little girl，through her connection with music，left an impression on me that will last forever．
Every child has the ability to learn and grow．It is up to us educators to discover the way to reach each and every one of our stu dents．We all must find each child's light．

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? 1..

We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. 2.. Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. 3..If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.

4..According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “5..”

A.A healthy body contributes to one’s intelligence.

B.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children.

C.What people want express is like this.

D.The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent.

E.It needs exercise.

F.You are such a smart child.

G.These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.
