①If you were to examine the birth certificates of every soccer player in 2006's World Cup tournament,
you would most likely find a noteworthy quirk: elite soccer players are more likely to have been born in the
earlier months of the year than in the later months. ②If you then examined the European national youth
teams that feed the World Cup and professional ranks, you would find this strange phenomenon to be even
more pronounced.
①What might account for this strange phenomenon? ②Here are a few guesses: a) certain astrological
signs confer superior soccer skills; b) winter-born babies tend to have higher oxygen capacity, which incre
ases soccer stamina; c) soccer-mad parents are more likely to conceive children in springtime, at the annual
peak of soccer mania; d) none of the above.
①Anders Ericsson, a 58-year-old psychology professor at Florida State University, says he believes
strongly in“none of the above.”②Ericsson grew up in Sweden, and studied nuclear engineering until he reali
zed he would have more opportunity to conduct his own research if he switched to psychology. ③His first
experiment, nearly 30 years ago, involved memory: training a person to hear and then repeat a random series
of numbers. ④“With the first subject, after about 20 hours of training, his digit span had risen from 7 to
20,”Ericsson recalls. ⑤“He kept improving, and after about 200 hours of training he had risen to over 80
numbers.”
①This success, coupled with later research showing that memory itself is not genetically determined,
led Ericsson to conclude that the act of memorizing is more of a cognitive exercise than an intuitive one. ②
In other words, whatever inborn differences two people may exhibit in their abilities to memorize, those
differences are swamped by how well each person“encodes”the information.③And the best way to learn
how to encode information meaningfully, Ericsson determined, was a process known as deliberate practice.
④Deliberate practice entails more than simply repeating a task. ⑤Rather, it involves setting specific goals,
obtaining immediate feedback and concentrating as much on technique as on outcome.
①Ericsson and his colleagues have thus taken to studying expert performers in a wide range of pursu
its, including soccer. ②They gather all the data they can, not just performance statistics and biographical
details but also the results of their own laboratory experiments with high achievers. ③Their work makes a
rather startling assertion: the trait we commonly call talent is highly overrated. ④Or, put another way, exper
t performers—whether in memory or surgery, ballet or computer programming—are nearly always made, not
born.

①For the past several years, the Sunday newspaper supplement Parade has featured a column called
“Ask Marilyn.”②People are invited to query Marilyn vos Savant, who at age 10 had tested at a mental
level of someone about 23 years old; that gave her an IQ of 228—the highest score ever recorded. ③IQ
tests ask you to complete verbal and visual analogies, to envision paper after it has been folded and cut, and
to deduce numerical sequences, among other similar tasks. ④So it is a bit confusing when vos Savant field
s such queries from the average Joe (whose IQ is 100) as, What's the difference between love and fondness?
Or what is the nature of luck and coincidence? ⑤It's not obvious how the capacity to visualize objects and to
figure out numerical patterns suits one to answer questions that have eluded some of the best poets and
philosophers.
①Clearly, intelligence encompasses more than a score on a test. ②Just what does it mean to be smart?
③How much of intelligence can be specified, and how much can we learn about it from neurology, genet
ics,computer science and other fields?
①The defining term of intelligence in humans still seems to be the IQ score, even though IQ tests are
not given as often as they used to be. ②The test comes primarily in two forms: the Stanford-Binet Intel
ligence Scale and the Wechsler Intelligence Scales (both come in adult and children's version). ③Generally
costing several hundred dollars, they are usually given only by psychologists, although variations of them
populate bookstores and the World Wide Web. ④Superhigh scores like vos Savant's are no longer possible,
because scoring is now based on a statistical population distribution among age peers, rather than simply
dividing the mental age by the chronological age and multiplying by 100. ⑤Other standardized tests, such
as the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) and the Graduate Record Exam (GRE), capture the main aspects of
IQ tests.
①Such standardized tests may not assess all the important elements necessary to succeed in school and
in life, argues Robert J. Sternberg. ②In his articl“eHow Intelligent Is Intelligence Testing?”, Sternberg notes
that traditional tests best assess analytical and verbal skills but fail to measure creativity and practical
knowledge, components also critical to problem solving and life success. ③Moreover, IQ tests do not
necessarily predict so well once populations or situations change. ④Research has found that IQ predicted
leadership skills when the tests were given under low-stress conditions, but under high-stress conditions,
IQ was negatively correlated with leadership—that is, it predicted the opposite. ⑤Anyone who has toiled
through SAT will testify that test-taking skill also matters, whether it's knowing when to guess or what quest
ions to skip.
2007年
of the following may be required in an intelligence test?
[A] Answering philosophical questions.
[B] Folding or cutting paper into different shapes.

①During the past generation, the American middle-class family that once could count on hard work
and fair play to keep itself financially secure has been transformed by economic risk and new realities. ②
Now a pink slip, a bad diagnosis, or a disappearing spouse can reduce a family from solidly middle class to
newly poor in a few months.
①In just one generation, millions of mothers have gone to work, transforming basic family economics.
②Scholars, policymakers, and critics of all stripes have debated the social implications of these changes, but
few have looked at the side effect: family risk has risen as well. ③Today's families have budgeted to the
limits of their new two-paycheck status. ④As a result, they have lost the parachute they once had in times
of financial setback—a back-up earner (usually Mom) who could go into the workforce if the primary earner
got laid off or fell sick. ⑤This“added-worker effect”could support the safety net offered by unemployme
nt insurance or disability insurance to help families weather bad times. ⑥But today, a disruption to family
fortunes can no longer be made up with extra income from an otherwise-stay-at-home partner.
①During the same period, families have been asked to absorb much more risk in their retirement
income. ②Steelworkers, airline employees, and now those in the auto industry are joining millions of famil
ies who must worry about interest rates, stock market fluctuation, and the harsh reality that they may outli
ve their retirement money. ③For much of the past year, President Bush campaigned to move Social Secur
ity to a savings-account model, with retirees trading much or all of their guaranteed payments for payments
depending on investment returns. ④For younger families, the picture is not any better. ⑤Both the absolute
cost of health care and the share of it borne by families have risen—and newly fashionable health-savings
plans are spreading from legislative halls to Wa-Mart workers, with much higher deductibles and a large
new dose of investment risk for families' future healthcare. ⑥Even demographics are working against the
middle class family, as the odds of having a weak elderly parent—and all the attendant need for physical and
financial assistance—have jumped eightfold in just one generation.
①From the middle-class family perspective, much of this, understandably, looks far less like an oppor
tunity to exercise more financial responsibility, and a good deal more like a frightening acceleration of the
wholesale shift of financial risk onto their already overburdened shoulders. ②The financial fallout has
begun, and the political fallout may not be far behind.

①It never rains but it pours. ②Just as bosses and boards have finally sorted out their worst accou
nting and compliance troubles, and improved their feeble corporation governance, a new problem threatens
to earn them—especially in America—the sort of nasty headlines that inevitably lead to heads rolling in
the executive suite: data insecurity. ③Left, until now, to odd, low-level IT staff to put right, and seen as a
concern only of data-rich industries such as banking, telecoms and air travel, information protection is now
high on the boss's agenda in businesses of every variety.
①Several massive leakages of customer and employee data this year—from organizations as diverse as
Time Warner, the American defense contractor Science Applications International Corp and even the Unive
rsity of California, Berkeley—have left managers hurriedly peering into their intricate IT systems and busin
ess processes in search of potential vulnerabilities.
①“Data is becoming an asset which needs to be guarded as much as any other asset,”says Haim
Mendelson of Stanford University's business school. ②“The ability to guard customer data is the key to
market value, which the board is responsible for on behalf of shareholders.”③Indeed, just as there is the
concept of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), perhaps it is time for GASP, Generally
Accepted Security Practices, suggested Eli Noam of New York's Columbia Business School. ④“Setting the
proper investment level for security, redundancy, and recovery is a management issue, not a technical one,”
he says.
①The mystery is that this should come as a surprise to any boss.②Surely it should be obvious to the
dimmest executive that trust, that most valuable of economic assets, is easily destroyed and hugely expensive
to restore—and that few things are more likely to destroy trust than a company letting sensitive personal data
get into the wrong hands.
①The current state of affairs may have been encouraged—though not justified—by the lack of legal
penalty (in America, but not Europe) for data leakage. ②Until California recently passed a law, American
firms did not have to tell anyone, even the victim, when data went astray.③That may change fast: lots of
proposed data-security legislation is now doing the rounds in Washington, D.C.④Meanwhile, the theft of
information about some 40 million credit-card accounts in America, disclosed on June 17th, overshadowed a
hugely important decision a day earlier by America's Federal Trade Commission(FTC) that puts corporate
America on notice that regulators will act if firms fail to provide adequate data security.
