Professor Plomin thinks genetic scanning could eventually be used to identity particularly gifted children or those with academic weaknesses. By reading a child's genome (pictured), adults can predict and therefore influence a child's academic progression, as well as prevent disease普罗名教授认为基因扫描是最能辨别聪颖和驽钝的孩子的方法。通过研究一个孩子的染色体组（如图），大人可以预言并且影响一个孩子的学术进程，同样也能阻止疾病
Prof Plomin believes education professionals have been too fast to dismiss the influence of genetics and intelligence on children's academic potential. But he thinks his research can be used in a positive way to develop education tailored to a child's unique needs, that will translate into better exam results普罗名教授认为教育专家总是很快排除基因和智商最孩子学术成绩的潜在影响。但是他认为他的研究能有效地从正面发展教育，一种适合孩子特别需求的教育，这将会提高孩子的成绩
Professor Plomin, an American geneticist, has been asked to present his findings to ministers and officials at the Department for Education.

A DFE insider said: ‘As we learn more from science, a decentralised school system with great teachers providing personalised learning will be even more important.’‘Twin tests’ usually involve comparisons between identical and non-identical twins – or those brought up apart in different environments.
一位教育部内部人员说：“当我们从科学中学到更多时，分开的学校教育配备更好的师资，能提供个人化的教育则会更加重要。”“双胞胎测试”通常包括同卵和异卵双胞胎的比较——或者那些在不同环境长大的双胞胎的比较。
n GIRLS who walk to school do better in class, according to research.
根据研究显示，很多步行去学校的女孩在学校表现比较好。
A study found that children who go by foot outperform peers who travel by bus or car. The difference is put down to exercise, with girls gaining more from the effort of walking.
研究也发现步行去学校的孩子比那些乘公车或轿车的同辈表现好。这个区别已落实，女孩从步行中得到了更大的收获。
Exercise has been shown to help the brain grow and boost memory.
锻炼能帮助大脑成长并增加记忆力。
The study of 1,700 Spanish teenagers was published in Archives of Paediatrics & Adolescent Medicine.
1,700位西班牙青少年的研究已经刊登于美国医学协会杂志。
