[听力原文]There are two factors which determine an individual’s intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. 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 low level of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he is reared, If an individual is handicapped 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 ease history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. 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 foster homes. Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late 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. Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.According to the passage, what is the first factor that determines an individual’s intelligence（）

In an age of perpetual digital connectedness, why do people seem so disconnected In a Duke University study, researchers found that from 1985 to 2004, the (62) of people who said there was no one with whom they discussed important matters tripled, to 25%; the same study found that (63) , Americans had one-third (64) friends and confidants than they did two decades ago.Another recent study, by researchers at the University of Michigan, found that college students today have (65) less empathy--the ability to understand and (66) the feelings of another-- than students of generations past did. The reason, psychologists (67) , may have something to do with our increasing (68) on digital communication and other forms of new media.It’s possible that instead of (69) real friendships off-fine, e-mail and social networking may take the place of them--and the distance (70) in screen-only interactions may breed feelings of isolation or a tendency to care less about other people.The problem is, (71) empathy recedes, (72) does trust. And (73) trust, you can’t have a cohesive society. (74) the findings of a new study co-authored by Kevin Rockmann of George Mason University and Gregory Northcraft, a professor of executive leadership at the University of Illinois. Northcraft says high-tech communications like e-mail and videoconferencing strip away the personal interaction needed to (75) trust. In a business setting--as in all other social relationships outside the workplace--trust is a necessary (76) for effective cooperation within a group.In Rockmann and Northcraft’s study, 200 students were divided into teams and asked to manage two (77) projects, one having to do with nuclear disarmament (裁军)； the other, price fixing. Some groups (78) via e-mail, some via videoconference and others face to face. In the end, those who met in (79) showed the most trust and most effective cooperation; those using e-mail were the (80) able to work together and get the job done.Northcraft thinks this is because real-life meetings, during which participants can see how engaged their colleagues are, breed more trust. Over e-mail, (81) confirmation of hard work gets lost, which tends to encourage mutual slacking off (懈怠). 79（）
