37、pond to environmental stimuli刺激as the basis of their behaviorSocially and politically, the consequences of these two theories are far-reachingIn the US, blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence testsThis leads some “nature proponents to conclude that blacks are genetically lower

Behaviorists, on the contrary, say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy, and that, as a result, they do not develop the same responses that whites doEithe

39、r of these theories cannot yet fully explain human behaviorIn fact, it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremesThat the controversy will continue for a long time is certain67This passage is mainly concerned withArelation between personality and behaviorB

40、relation between behavior and environmentCdifferent accounts of patterns of human behaviorDdifferent theories of the formation of human behavior68The underlined word proponents in paragraph 2 meansAcreators Badvisors Cadvocates Djudges69In paragraph 5 , the author mainly writes aboutAthe considerabl

46、the USwill soon limit the amount of carbon dioxide that power generators may give outWith the additional cost of IGCC, to just voluntarily build something thats 20 percent more expensive, thats commercial suicide, NRG chief administrator, David Crane saidNRG administrators expect the cost to decline
