问题     When we talk about intelligence, we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.
    For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn’t sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he can’t make things work out right, he doesn’t feel ashamed that he failed; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeling about life, and knows how he fits into it.
    If you look at children, you’ll see great difference between what we call "bright" children and "not-bright" children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life—he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But, the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.
The author of this passage will probably continue to talk about______.
选项 A、how to determine what intelligence is
B、how education should be found
C、how to solve practical problems
D、how an unintelligent person should be taught
答案D
解析 本题主要考查考生的推断能力及对文章主旨的把握。因为前三段分别谈到了一个聪明的人会有什么样的行为表现，并举例说了聪明的人失败后会怎样，聪明和不聪明的儿童有什么不同。那么接下来应该会说如何对不够聪明的人进行教育使其具有智慧。A和C已经提到，B泛泛地谈了教育，不正确。
