In fact, smart people have several things in common. These include being self-aware, high self-control and even a funny personality, Business Insider reported. You may think these traits （特/点）come from personal experience or habits. But infact, there is some scientific evidence behind them.Being self-awareSmart people are better able to admit （承认）when they don't know something, according to a study by Cornell University in the US. The study found that the less smart you are, the more you overestimate （高估）yourself.In one experiment, for example, students were asked to estimate their scores after taking a test. The students with lower scores overestimated the number of questions they'd gotten right. Meanwhile, those with higher scores underestimated how many questions they'd gotten right.High self-controlScientists have found a link between self-control and intelligence. In a 2009 study published in the journal Psychological Science, participants （参与者）had to choose between two rewards: a smaller amount of money that they could get at once or a larger amount of money that they could get later.The results showed that people who chose to receive the larger amount of money at a later date scored higher on intelligence tests （智力测试）.These people had more self-control.Being really funnyDo smart people have a better sense of humor? Scientists at the University of New Mexico may think so. One of their studies found that people who wrote funnier cartoon captions （解说词）scored higher on verbal （词语的）intelligence tests. Verbal intelligence is believed to be linked to the whole intelligence.Other trailsBesides what we've talked above, scientists also find that smart people can easily feel what someone else is thinking or feeling and are more willing to listen to others5 suggestions. They are always curious about many things. So, why not have a check if you are smart?Test71smart you areThings in72Scientific evidenceBeing self-awareSmart people have73abilities to admit when they don't know.In one experiment, scientists asked students to estimate after they74a test.

I pictured white lab coats and smoky beakers. I was s 81 to learn that young people have created many world-changing inventions（发 明）.Like 15-year-old Albert Sadacca, who invented Christmas tree lights in 1917, people were hanging candles from a Christmas tree at that time. It might be easy to c 82 fire. Sadacca's parents sold electric lighting in their shop. Young Albert thought to use these lights on Christmas trees. This turned out to be a pretty bright i 83A 84 cool kid, the 15-year-old Chester Greenwood was ice-skating one day in 1873. Naturally, as tends to happen during winter play, his ears got cold. Chester had a c 85 idea. He asked his grandma to sew some fur tufts to a wire loop（线圈）that he had fashioned. His design worked well! He invented earmuffs（耳罩）.Greenwood's one good idea p 86 jobs for people in the Farmington area.Speaking of cool kids, Margaret E. Knight b 87 a small-town hero. She made her first life-saving device at the age of 12. Her brothers were working at a cloth factory. One day she was visiting them. A loom(织布机)broke down and injured a worker. She thought she could make the machines safer. She invented an effective(高效的)system. Her method(方'法)was later used in many factories. She saved a lot of 188Some young people feel powerless. They feel like they are living in an adult world, created by adults for adults. But the t 89 is that everyone has the power to change the world. A 12-year-old girl growing up in 1868 made factories safer. A 15-year-old boy, blind in b 90 eyes, made written communication more accessible. Who knows what's in store for your future?十四、讲稿91. 2021年12月22日，常州市天宁区发生了 4.2级地震，震源深度10公里。苏 锡常震感明显，沪宁亦有震感。为此英语老师安排了主题延伸课，探讨如遇地震，该怎 样保障自己的生命安全。请根据以下要点，写一篇发言稿。When22 December, 2021Whatan earthquakeWhereChangzhou stay calm(2) cut down the power(3) protect the head(4)How to protect ourselves(1) stand near a window(2) return to get things(3) give up easily(4)注意：1.内容涵盖表中所有要点，可适当发挥;2 .文中不得出现你的真实姓名和学校名称；3 .词数80左右。参考答案:15.

An earthquake is dangerous but there are things you can do to protect yourself.First stay calm as an earthquake begins. If you are inside when the earthquake starts, cut down the power as soon as possible. Then you can go under a table or a bed. You need to have something strong around you to protect you from falling objects. Especially you must protect your head well. Do not stand near walls or windows and stay out of the kitchen.

After months of traveling, they 26 it 500 kilometers away from their home in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan. And it seems that they are not going to 27 their trip anytime soon. "Asian elephants often stay within certain areas. Ifs very 28 to see them travel such a long way,“ said Chen Mingyong, a life sciences professor at Yunnan University.Scientists are 29 not sure why they are doing this. Some believe it's because they are looking for better food. According to Zhao Huaidong from the International Fund for Animal Welfare, the number of Asian elephants is 30 because of human protection efforts（努力） So their old homes might not have enough food for them. Meanwhile, the crops, vegetables and fruit that people grow are quite attractive to elephants.31 possibility, according to Chen, is that they have lost their way. Some scientists also believe that they are traveling due to migratory instinct（迁徙本能）.Recent solar activity has changed Earth's magnetic field（磁场）.This might make the elephants think that they 32 migrate.During their long journey, the 15 elephants have already damaged 561,333 square meters of crops and caused economic losses of nearly 6.8 million yuan. But since they are33 Class-A protection in China, the same as the giant panda, we need to protect them. To ensure the safety of both humans and the elephants, people have fed them tons of food to guide them 34 from towns and cities. Seventy-six police cars and trucks and nine drones（无人机）have been used to keep an 35 on the elephants. Scientists also suggest that we should use harmless fences（栅栏）to guide them on their way home.26.

Tom cheers Lucy up because she is the only one who has this problem.Winter is cold in some places. Many plants do not grow during winter. Some plants die.Snow and ice may cover the ground. It can be hard for animals to find food during winter.Animals get through this time in many ways.Birds and butterflies can fly. Many of them do not stick around for the winter. Instead, they go to a place with nice weather. Then they come home in the spring. We call this migration. Migrating is a good way to avoid the cold.Another good way to avoid the cold is to sleep through it. Many animals hide during the winter. Their bodies slow down. They save their energy. They do not eat. They live off of their fat. They do this until food returns. We call this hibernation. Snakes, frogs, and bears hibernate.Some animals store food in their homes. They do not sleep all winter, but they do much less. They live on what they saved in the summer and fall. This is what squirrels, beavers, and raccoons do. Skunks do this too.Other animals live a hard life in winter. They do not leave. They do not hide. They must survive（生存）.Sometimes nature helps them out. Some animals grow thicker fur in the winter. Other animals change colour. The arctic fox is brown in the summer. His fur turns white in the winter.Winter may be pretty. It is n
