Earlier this month, researcher Kevin Beaver of Florida State University reported that he and his co-authors had identified genetic markers associated with academic achievement. In their study, published in the Journal of Developmental Psychology, the scientists found that young people who possessed particular forms of three genes were more likely to finish high school and go on to college than those who carried other forms of the genes. The newly found genes are involved in regulating the actions in the brain, and have been linked in other studies to levels of motivation, attention and intelligence. It is true that in recent years, scientists have produced a growing number of studies linking the capacity to learn to specific genes. A team at King’s College London, for example, has published several articles relating ability in mathematics to different varieties in DNA. Children who carried 10 or more of the “risk” genes identified by the researchers were nearly twice as likely to perform poorly in math, according to a 2010 study generated by the group. In another experiment, scientists reported that some individuals possess another two forms of genes involved in brain development that may make it easier for them to learn difficult languages like Chinese. But scientists have long warned against attributing complex human behaviors to the action of a few genes—and learning is among the most complex things we do. The authors of these studies acknowledge this. “Mathematical ability and disability are influenced by many forms of genes generating small affects across the entire system of ability,” writes Sophia Docherty, who heads the King’s College team. Moreover, environment matters, even in the context of genes: Docherty’s research finds that children with the “risk” forms of genes were especially likely to do poorly in math when they lived in chaotic homes and had negative, punitive (惩罚性的) parents. More generally research indicates that genetic factors account for about half of the elements in educational achievement.【缺少答案,请补充】
Some prisoners in the United States create works of art. Prison art is sold in art galleries (画廊)in the Washington D.C. area. The profits are split among the artists and the Prisons Foundation, a not-for-profit group in the nation’s capital. The Prisons Foundation supports the arts in prisons and programs designed to help keep people out of jail. Some prisoners create pictures filled with images of natural beauty. It helps them remember the word they left behind. Dennis Sobin served twelve years in prison. He created the Prisons Foundation while he was jailed. He said: “Art is a cure and remedy for prisoners. And prison art is often full of emotion”. Dennis Sobin now owns the Watergate Gallery, which sells prisoner art. He said: “There’s a lot of sensitivity in this art. You can see what people are thinking.” Brian Driggers was released from prison recently. He created a lot of art during his eight years in prison. Some of it is in the Crime and Punishment Museum in Washington. He used a pen in his art. Paint and brushes were not permitted in the prison because they could be used for body art. He told us about what he used to create a picture of his wife. He said: “I created the brush out of my own hair. I would cut a lot of my hair off, tie it up with thread, and then use a pen. And then paint with instant coffee. You could mix it down with different levels of water to create different tones and use it as a watercolor medium.” Mr. Driggers also created a picture of himself using color chalks. He said: “The shapes are broken apart, and what that implies to my life had completely fallen apart, and the meaning behind that s for me to come back together again.”【缺少答案,请补充】
