What is the book made of? What we read books or newspapers,we hardly stop to think about the paper which is used to make them. Without this invention,our lives would be very different.

Paper is one of the most important inventions of all time. The word paper comes from the word papyrus—a grasslike plant. The Egyptians first used papyrus around the year 3000 B.C. to make a kind of paper. In A.D. 105,a Chinese man named Ts’ai­Lun created a new type of paper using pieces of old cloth. For centuries,people all over the world used this Chinese method(方式) to make paper. In 1838,Charles Fenerty,a Canadian man,invented a new method of papermaking using wood. Today,most of the paper we use is made from wood.

Think again about your book. Did you use paper money to buy it? If so,you can thank the Chinese. They invented paper money in the ninth century A. D. The government began using paper notes as money because there wasn’t enough copper(钢) to make coins.

Today,it’s hard to imagine life without paper. We use it to communicate in many different ways. We also use many important products that are made of paper. Take for example,toilet paper. Many believe that an American. Joseph Gayetty,invented it in 1857. Walter Alcock,an Englishman,later had the idea to put the paper on rolls. By 1907,using toilet paper was common in the United States and England.

Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence (智力) developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. In some degree, our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no education can make a genius (天才) out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich environment. Therefore, the limits(限度) of person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This point of view, now is held by most experts.

It is easy to show that intelligence is something that we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be intelligence. If we take two strangers by chance from the population, it seems that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we compare two twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.

Imagine now that we take two twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory separately where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this shows that environment as well as birth plays an important part. This result is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.

2. According to the passage, if a child is born with low intelligence, what might happen to him later?

3. What can we learn from the example of the twins going to a university and to a factory?

A. The importance of their intelligence. B. The role of environment on intelligence.

C. The importance of their jobs. D. The part that birth plays.

4. What statement is TRUE according to the passage?

A. No education can help make a genius.

B. Personality is important as intelligence which was given to people at birth.

C. People who have similar degree of intelligence must be relatives.
