    For years scientists have been arguing about whether nature or nurture (后天) decides what people will be like. Is it nature— what people are 1 with— that decides what they will be like? 2 is it nurture —what3to people when they are born —that decides what they will be like?
    Scientists have been studying twins to 4 if they can find the answer, because twins start out with the 5DNA. Sometimes twins don't live together at birth and grow up in different 6and different places— so the nature is the same for both, but the nurture is different.

Jim Springer and Jim Lewis were adopted（收养）by two different families at birth. They first met each other again thirty-nine years 9and discovered they had a lot in 10. Both had been 11twice. Their first wives were both named Linda and their second wives were both named Betty!
    Each twin had a son — one called his son James Alan and the 12 called his son James Alan, too. Their children each had a dog called “Toy”. They even arrived at their first 13in the same color of car.
    So far twin14seem to show that both nature and nurture are important. What we have from birth, and how and where we live help to build 15 we are.
