If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876—1974) concluded from other men’s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.
He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of a large number of people tend to be lowest in the summer.
Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in spring man’s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.
Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be good time to take a long vacation from thinking.
The two best seasons for thinking seem to be______.
选项
A、spring and fall
B、winter and summer
C、summer and spring
D、fall and winter
答案
A
解析
这是一道综合推理题,应结合文中上下文所提供的信息进行综合判断,找出正确答案。文中第四段说:“秋季是第二好的季节,然后是冬季。至于夏季,它似乎是最好的思考休长假时间。”结合第三段,即作者认为春季是人类大脑能力最强的季节,我们由此可以推出一年中思考的最好季节的由高到低的次序是:春季→秋季→冬季→夏季,因此选项A正确。
