Both groups ate the same meals, but those who ate their food alone were only given 20 minutes to consume their food, (24)________ the paired participants were allowed one hour in the restaurant. Those who ate alone did not have as large a drop in their cognitive processing as those who ate in the restaurant. ‎ What was responsible for the change? There were too many variables at play to determine which had the strongest influence on cognitive control--was it the companionship or the restaurant environment (25)________ other dinners were present, music was played and the meal was served by wait staff, or was it the longer time to enjoy the meal?‎ ‎(26)________ factor was responsible, the group that took a restaurant lunch break came back more relaxed, say the authors, and that likely affected their cognitive sharpness.

To find out whether this genetic contribution varies with age, Plomin's team gathered data from six separate studies carried out in 4 countries, (34)________ a total of 1100 pairs of twins.

Each study also included both identical twins, with the same genes, and fraternal twins (异卵双生), sharing about half their genes, making it possible to (35)________ the contributions of genes and environment to their G scores.‎ Plomin's team calculated in childhood, genes account for about 41 percent of the variations in intelligence. In adolescence, this rose to 55 percent;, by young adolescence, it was 66 percent NO one (36)________ knows why the influence from genes should increase with age, but Plomin suggests that as children get older, they become better at handling their environment to suit their genetic needs, and says “kids with with high G will use their environment to develop cognitive ability and choose friends who are like-minded. Children with (37)________ to low G may choose less challenging pastimes and activities, further emphasizing their genetic legacy. ‎ Is there any way to interfere with the pattern? Perhaps. The evidence of strong heritability (遗传可能性) doesn’t mean that there is nothing you can do about it." says Susanne Jaeggi, “from our own work, the ones that started off with lower IQ scores had higher (38)________ training. Plomin suggests genetic differences may be more emphasized if all children share an identical curriculum instead of it being (39)________ to children's natural abilities. My tendency would be to give everyone a good education, but put more effort into the lower end." he says.
