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 year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth-Huntington, concluded from other men’s work and his own among people 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 the summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers 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. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation for thinking.
选项 A、People show greater mental abilities in mild weather than in extremely hot or cold weather.
B、Heat has less effect on people’s intelligence than the cold does.
C、People are more intelligent on cloudy days.
D、Temperature has nothing to do with people’s intelligence.
答案 A
解析 Which of the following best agrees with Huntington’s findings?
