问题 In the 1960s，László Polgár was a Hungarian educational psychologist who had written several scientific papers on the effectiveness of practice in creating excellence．Explaining his passionate convictions to his future wife，Klara，she fell for him as well as his arguments．They chose chess for their experiment because it has an objective metric by which achievement can be measured．Neither were exceptional chess players．
    As luck would have it，Klara gave birth to three daughters．There had been no female grandmasters and it was widely assumed that women were genetically incapable of the cognitive skills entailed in exceptional chess，and were consequently excluded from top tournaments．
    Starting with his eldest daughter，Susan，Polg6r was careful to treat it as a playful activity，turning it into a fantasy of dramatic wins and losses．Whereas Earl and Kuhida Woods had coerced perfection from Tiger，the Polgás encouraged enjoyment．
    By the time Susan had turned five，she was excited by playing and spent hundreds of hours practising．She was entered into．a local competition and treated it aB fun，winning 10-0，causing a sensation．
    Meanwhile，her younger sisters were intrigued and Lárszló allowed them to feel the pieces，seeing them as toys，with no formal tuition until they were five．Interviewed recently，al three girls described playing the game as something that they loved doing—it never felt like a chore．Instead of messing about playing Monopoly，netball or going to the local swimming pool，chess was just what the Polg6r family enjoyed．
    Sure enough，in 1991 the eldest daughter became the first female grandmaster．The second  daughter had 10 straight wins against male grandmasters，a performance rated the fifth best in the history of chess．Her younger sister became a grandmaster at the age of 15，the youngest ever，of either gender．
    Polgár understood that coercion was less valuable than small children’s need to enjoy fantasy  play．Consequently，his daughters all seem to have grown into satiable，well—balanced people rather  than success addicts．
The passage is intended to_____________．
选项 A、show how important gene is to affect children
B、describe an effective case of creating excellence
C、explain how three girls became champions in chess
D、highlight the process of growing into well—balanced women
答案B
解析 主旨题。文章首句就说到László Polgár研究的方向：培养优秀孩子过程中实践练习的有效性，之后以他三个孩子来做实验，到最后三个孩子在国际象棋方面都取得巨大成就。所以整篇文章其实就是在描述一个培养优秀孩子的有效实例。故正确答案为B。
