The most convincing evidence for the importance of adult influence on a child's intelligence comes from a study of *"at risk"children. Ramey and Frances Campbell of the University of North Carolina （1 ）with children born into poverty-line households. The children entered the study by four months（2 ） age. During the study, one group spent the day in a center where teachers used games and songs to（3 ）the infants. Another group had no such （4） , but they were given nutritional supplements in（5 ） During preschool years the children in the early-education group showed IQ advantages of ten to 20 points. The highest-risk children showed the （6 ）gains, and at age 15 they had higher reading and math scores.What （7 ） for these gains? Ramey and other scientists say early childhood experiences （8 ） brain growth. An infant is born（9）billions of brain cells called neurons.
