2025安徽農(nóng)商行校園招聘英語練習(xí)題(27)
閱讀理解:
It pays to be smart, but we are not all smart in the same way. You may be a talented musician, but you might not be a good reader. Each of us is different.
Psychologists disagree about what is intelligence and what are talents or personal abilities. Psychologists have two different views on intelligence. Some believe there is one kind of general intelligence. Others believe there are many different kinds of intelligence.
Some psychologists say there is one type of intelligence that can be measured with IQ tests. These psychologists support their view with research that concludes that people who do well in one kind of test for mental ability do well in other tests. They do well in tests about using words, numbers or pictures. They do well in individual or group tests, and written or oral tests. Those who do poorly in one test do the same in all tests.
Studies of the brain show that there is a biological basis for general intelligence. The brains of intelligent people use less energy during problem-solving. The brainwaves of people with higher intelligence show a quicker reaction. Some researchers conclude that differences in intelligence result from differences in the speed and efficiency of information processed by the brain.
Howard Gardner, a psychologist at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, has four children. He believes that all children are different and shouldn't be tested by one intelligence test. Although Gardner believes general intelligence exists, he doesn't think it tells much about the talents of a person outside of formal schooling. He thinks that the human mind has different kinds of intelligence. These kinds of intelligence allow us to solve various kinds of problems we encounter in life. Each of us has different abilities within these kinds of intelligence. Gardner believes that the purpose of schools should be to encourage the development of all of our intelligence.
Gardner says that his theory is based on biology. For example, when one part of the brain is injured, other parts of the brain still work. People who cannot talk because of brain damage can still sing. So, there is not just one kind of intelligence to lose.
問題
1.What is the main idea of this passage?
A.The importance of intelligence.
B.The development of intelligence tests.
C.How to understand intelligence.
D.How to become intelligent.
【答案】C
解析:通讀全文可知,第二段點(diǎn)明了文章的主旨,即心理學(xué)家對(duì)智力有兩種不同的理解,一些人認(rèn)為只有一種一般智力,而其他人認(rèn)為有許多不同的智力;下文對(duì)這兩種理解進(jìn)行了詳細(xì)的闡述。由此可推知,本文主要介紹的是"如何理解智力"。故選C。
