40.J本文屬于科普文，介紹研究發現，年齡越大，基因對我們的影響就越大，這是與之前的觀點相違背的。【31題詳解】考查名詞。句意：這跟大多數的觀點相違背，他們認為年齡增長，環境的影響會逐漸超過我們基因的影響，這可能對教育有啟發意義。分析文章可知，本句講述新的發現觀點以及對教育的意義，故選K。【32題詳解】考查形容詞。句意：我們的發現讓人非常驚訝，朝著另一個方向前進的。根據文章可知，新的發現與人們固有的認知是相違背的，故選H。【33題詳解】考查副詞。句意：之前的研究發現，智力的不同部分原因是由于基因。修飾dueto用副詞，故用partly，故選G。【34題詳解】考查介詞。句意：Plomin的團隊收集了來自四個國家六份單獨的研究數據，其中包括1100對雙胞胎。分析句子可知，本句講述結論的數據來源，故選A。【35題詳解】考查動詞。句意：每份研究包括同卵雙生雙胞胎，具有相同的基因，以及異卵雙生的雙胞胎，他們只有一半的基因相同，這樣讓區分基因和環境對G分數的影響成為可能。本句主要描述包含真正的雙胞胎以及異卵雙生的雙胞胎的目的在區分不同因素對G的影響，故選B。【36題詳解】考查副詞。句意：沒人確切知道為什么基因會隨著年齡的增長而影響加大。修飾動詞用副詞，結合語境，故用definitely，故選I。【37題詳解】考查形容詞。句意：G分數中等或者低的孩子可能選擇挑戰性更小的消遣和活動，進一步強調基因的作用。本句描述G中等和分數低的孩子的表現,故選E。【38題詳解】考查名詞。句意：從我們的研究來說，開始IQ分數不高的人接受了更高的成果訓練。修飾training用名詞作定語，故選F。【39題詳解】考查動詞。句意：基因的影響可能會更加明確，如果孩子們接受的都是同樣的課程，而不是根據他們的天性安排課程。根據本句identicalcurriculuminsteadof可知，很多孩子接受的專門定制的教育，故選D。【40題詳解】考查動詞。句意：這顯示了教育者需要把廣告投入到可以發揮他們天賦的東西上面。本句描述要調整自己的內容和重點，故選J。
