If you struggle against figures, maybe you were born that way, research has suggested. Being good at mathematics may be entirely pre-destined-you either have it   1   you don"t.     And those who find   2   difficult to add up the number shouldn"t feel too hopeless-mathematical talent does not appear to be linked to all-round intelligence. Previous research has indicated that "number sense" is    3   (base) to humans. We use it to estimate such things as    4   number of seats in a cinema or crowd sizes.      U.S. psychologists at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore made their finding after testing children too young to have been taught mathematics. During the study, 200 four-year-olds   5   (study) in terms of number senses, calculation skills and vocabulary. The verbal test was done for the reason   6   language and maths abilities are thought to be   7   (close) linked through general intelligence.      "Unlike    8   previous studies proved, this one shows that the link   9   number sense and maths ability is already present before the beginning of formal maths instruction. One of the most important questions is whether we can train a child"s number sense   10   (improve) his future maths ability."

CHINA"S first pure electric vehicle, BYD e6, went on sale in Shenzhen yesterday.       The latest product for BYD, a domestic pioneer in developing alternative-energy vehicles based in Shenzhen, the e6 combines state-of-the-art technology developed in a joint venture (合资企业) between BYD and the U.S.-based Daimler, Shenzhen Economic Daily reported yesterday.      The e6 carries a price tag of 369,800 yuan (US$56,030), according to BYD, which expected to sell about 300 e6s each month in Shenzhen.      Prospective buyers, however, will only have to pay 249,800 yuan for an e6, because in July last year, the city government started providing an extra 60,000 yuan subsidy to buyers of pure electric cars on the basis of a national subsidy of 60,000 yuan.      According to the manufacturer"s Vice President Lian Yubo, the BYD e6 possesses several examples of world-class technology, including intelligent keyless entry, voice recognition navigation system, on-board digital television, rear-view reverse camera and other accessories (附件). With the application of iCloud technology, motorists will also be able to use their iPhones or other mobile phones running an Android system to unlock and lock the car, control air conditioning, as well as monitor the location of the vehicle.      Lian said BYD and Daimler would cooperate to release more electric vehicles.      Powered by recyclable and environmentally friendly iron-based batteries produced by BYD and using 19.5 kwh of electricity per 100 km with no emissions, the e6 is capable of a maximum speed of 140 km per hour, the paper said. The car can run up to 300 km without a recharge.      It will take only one hour to recharge the e6 batteries to their full capacity at a charging station but five to six hours will be needed for a full charge at charging stands installed in parking lots.      Shenzhen has been accelerating the construction of large charging stations. In addition, owners of electric cars can apply to have charging stands installed in their residential communities.

It doesn"t matter where you live--in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village--the chances are that you" 11 be disturbed by jet planes, transistor radios, oil - powered engines, etc. We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without background music while they" re working.      Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be a very frightening experience for a human being. However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums(耳鼓). The noise level in some discos is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.      One recent report about noise and concentration(专心) suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really influences their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise which doesn"t change too much(music, for example) may even help people to concentrate.
