25、ty of steps up the ladder of success for clever children. It would be good to think that no one who is really bright can be missed out when the state system is obviously so complete. It is obvious, for instance, that many children from less wealthy homes reach university or do well in other ways.Unf
26、ortunately, we now have plenty of proofs that many children of every level of ability do much less well than they could. For instance, during the years of national military service it was possible to test the intelligence of all male 18-year-olds. Half of those soldiers who were placed in the two hi
27、ghest ability groups had left school at 15.It has also been shown that the percentage of working class children going to university is almost the same now as it was in 1939. One study of 5,000 children from birth to 21 years old shows that up to half the bright working class ones left school when th
28、ey reached 16 years old. Moreover, there is no difference in intelligence between the sexes, but far more boys and girls stay in education after 16.It is clear from this and many other proofs that many children are still leaving school too early to benefit from the prizes-money, social respectabilit
29、y, and interesting jobs- which higher education gives. It is clear too that the reasons why such children leave have much to do with their social background. Their parents often need the extra money another money-earner would bring in; they dont value education for itself because their own was proba

33、 decision62.

Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people?
34、 Even a skilled writer probably couldnt describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young childor even an animal, such as a pigeoncan learn to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted.We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about so
35、meones personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someones personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked t
36、o describe what a “nice face” looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a “nice person”, you might begin to think about someone who was kind, moderate, friendly, warm and so on.There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and act
37、s. Gordon Allport, an American psychologist, found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in peoples behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing, his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military typespeople are described with such terms.Peopl
38、e have always tried to “type” each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villains or the heros role. In fact, the words “person” and “personality” come from the Latin persona, meaning “mask”. Today, most television and movie actors do not wear mas
39、ks. But we can easily tell the “good guys” from the “bad guys” because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions.63.

42、nts provide unique informationC. peoples behavior can be easily described in wordsD. people differ in their behavioral and physical characteristicsDBelieve it or not, optical illusion(错觉) can cut highway crashes.Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 %
43、 using a simple optical illusion. Bent stripes, called chevrons(人字形), painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to repeat J
44、apans success. Starting next year, the Foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashesExcessive speed plays a major role in as much as one-fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the Fou
45、ndation. To help reduce those accidents, the Foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards(危险)are the greatestcurves, exit slopes, traffic circles and bridges.Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can at first cut the average speed of drive
46、rs in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bar.Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer last
47、ing reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.67. The passage mainly discusses _.A. a new way of highway speed controlB. a new pattern for painting highwaysC. a new approach to training driversD. a new type of optical illusion68.
