　　What shapes a man's ability and skill was always a question to psychologists until a few decades ago when findings show that they for the most part come from practice-repetitive and endless practice．

　　The psychologist K．Anders Ericsson of the University of Florida and his team, based on a survey of a violin class in a college of music, have found that the students whose levels are rated as “A” have spent on average over 10,000 hours on violin-practice, those with level B a bit less than 8,000 hours, and those with average or lower levels no more than 5,000 hours．

　　The result of the survey is widely preferred because it suggests that practice makes perfect, that is, the distinction between “excellent” and “good” lies more in hard work than in natural intelligence．Malcolm Gladwell points out in his latest book Outliers：The Story of Success：“Practice isn't the thing you do once you're good．It's the thing you do that makes you good．” Besides, he thinks IQ plays little part in the formation and development of ability．“When one has an IQ of 120,” writes he, “what is beyond it does not make an evidential difference in real life．”

　　However, scientists' experimental results are quite different from the psychologists'．Their findings show success in many areas depends on intelligence-and not a little．David Lubinski and Camilla Benbow of Vanderbilt University, with their research group, carried out a milestone research．They selected from Youth Talented Search 2000 teenagers of or under 13 whose SAT results ranked top1％．After tracking the achievements the 2,000 “wonder children” made in academy and career, Lubinski and Benbow's group found that those ranking top 1％ have more possibility(averagely by two to four times)to get a doctor's degree, a certificate, and publish academic theses and works than those ranking top 9％．As a conclusion, it's a great advantage in the real world to have a high IQ．

完形填空。
     Is language, like food, a basic human need without which a child at a critical period of life can
be   1  and damaged? Judging from an experiment in the thirteenth century, it may be. Hoping to
discover what language a child would speak if a baby heard no mother   2  , the experimenter
told the nurses to keep silent.  
     All the   3  died before the first year. But clearly there was more than lack of language here.
What was missing was good mothering. Without good mothering, in the first year of life   4 , the
capacity to survive is seriously affected.
     Today no such severe lack exists as that ordered by the experimenter.   5  , some children are
still backward in speaking. Most often the reason for this is that the mother is   6  to the signals of
the infant, whose brain is programmed to learn language rapidly. If these sensitive periods are neglected,
the ideal time for   7  skills passes and they might never be learned so easily again. A bird learns to
sing and to fly rapidly at right time, but the process is slow and hard once the   8  stage has passed.
     Experts suggest that speech stages are reached in a fixed sequence and at a   9  age, but there are
cases where speech has started   10  in a child who eventually turns out to be of high IQ. At twelve
weeks a baby smiles and makes vowel-like sounds; at twelve months he can speak simple words
and understand simple   11  ; at eighteen months he has a vocabulary of three to fifty words. At three
he knows about 1,000 words which he can put into sentences, and at four his language differs from
that of his parents in style   12  grammar.
     Recent evidence suggests that an infant is born with the   13   to speak. What is special about
man's brain, compared with that of the monkey, is the complex system which enables a child to   14  
the sight and feel of, say, a toy-bear with the sound pattern "toy - bear". And even more   15  is the
young brain's ability to pick out an order in language from the mixture of sound around him, to analyse,
to combine and recombine the parts of a language in new ways.
(     ) 1.A. constructed
