A

A three-year-old girl with an IQ above 160 has just become the youngest person in Arizona to be accepted into Mensa．

In fact，doctors said young Alexis Martin did so well on intelligence tests they couldn’t even calculate her IQ score exactly．

Mensa is an imemational club which only accepts members who have an IQ score in the top two per cent world wide．

The average person scores an IQ of approximately 100．But when Martin scored 160，the highest possible rating on the test，she matched the IQs of geniuses like Albert Einstein，Stephen Hawking，and Bill Gates，who are also thought to be in a similar range．

Martin’s parents said their little girl had given them signs she might be gifted for a long time.

From 12-18 months old，we’d be driving around in the car and she would recite her bedtime story from the night before，her father,Ian，told ABC 15．

She didn’t just recite them，she recited them exactly．

She’s cunently consuming books at a 5th grade reading level and even taught herself Spanish on the family’s iPad．

Anytime she learns a word and just picks it up through anything，she never uses it in the incorrect context，said fan．

And while her parents are grateful for her intellectual prowess(高超技艺)，they are worried about what unique challenges it might give to raising Alexis．

One of the doctors who tested her said Alexis could never go to a normal school and that children with her level of intelligence often suffer from high anxiety unless they’re around similarly gifted boys and girls．

Does she go into kindergarten early?We are kind of hesitant because we do want her to get that social aspect，Ian said．

A．the level of one’s intelligence B．a child’s intelligence development potentiality

A．70，000 B．70，000，000 C．1 40，000 D．1 40，000，000

43．From the underlined sentence in the passage we know that Alexis___________________．

A．had been offered gifts in the process of her growing up

B．had been showing her outstanding intelligence since very early age

C．had the tendency to top all of the children of her age

D．would reach her intelligence peak in a short time

A．Bill Gates’IQ score is similar to that of Alexis’

B．Alexis will soon be employed’by Mensa

C．a 5th grade book is a textbook for children under the age of 5

D．Alexis will surely become a genius in the future

B

Clenching your fist could be enough to help you get a grip on your memory．

Research suggests that balling up the right hand and squeezing it tightly actually makes it easier to memorize lists．

Later, when it is time to get back the information，it is the left hand that should be clenched．It is thought the movements activate brain regions key to the storing and recall of memories．

The American researchers suggest those who are short of a pen and paper should try the trick when attempting to remember a shopping list or phone number．
