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, me being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with an individual will have a low order 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.
The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, end their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate homes. Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities.
Mark, on the other hand, was raised in the home of rich parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child, sent to a good school, 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. Peter's score was 85, well below the level he might have attained if reared under average conditions. Mark' s score was 125, twenty-five points above the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities, the twins would have tested at roughly the same level.

It is often difficult for a man to be quite sure how much tax he ought to pay to the government because it depends on so many different things：whether the man is married;how many children he has;whether he supports any relations，how much interest he receives，how much he has spent on his house during the year，and so on. All this makes it difficult to decide exactly how much the tax is.There was an artist who was always very careful to pay the proper amount.
One year，after posting his check as usual，he began to wonder if he had paid enough，and after a lot of work，with a pencil and paper，he found that he had not. He thought that he owed the government something.
He was just writing another check to send it to the tax collector when the postman dropped a letter into the box at the front door. Opening it，the artist was surprised to find inside it a check for five pounds from the tax collector. The official explained that too much had been paid，and that therefore the difference was now returned to the taxpayer.
