问题     The intelligence tests used most often today are based on the work of a Frenchman, Alfred Binet. In 1905, Binet was asked by the French Ministry of Education to develop a way to identify those children in French schools who were too "mentally deficient" to benefit from ordinary schooling and who needed special education. The tests had to distinguish those who were merely behind in school from those who were actually mentally deficient.
    The items that Binet and his colleague Theophile Simon included in the test were chosen on the basis of their ideas about intelligence. Binet and Simon believed intelligence includes such abilities as understanding the meaning of words, solving problems, and making common-sense judgements. Two other important assumptions also shaped Binet’s and Simon’s work; (1) that children with more intelligence will do better in school and (2) that older children have a greater ability than younger children.
    Binet’s first test consisted of thirty tasks. They were simple things most children learn as a result of their everyday experiences. The tasks were arranged in groups, according to age. Binet decided which tasks were appropriate for a given age group by giving them first to a large number of children of different ages. If more than half of the children of a given age passed a test, it was considered appropriate for that age group.
Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
选项 A、One’s intelligence is usually related to one’s age.
B、The French Ministry of Education was charged with the development of first intelligence tests.
C、More intelligent children usually do better in school.
D、Intelligence includes word understanding and problem solving.
答案B
解析 本题是一道判断是非题。问根据文章内容，下面哪个说法是不正确的。针对四个选项，利用查阅式阅读法，结合原文中相关的部分，我们可以推断出B“法国教育部负责开发了第一种智力测验”，这种说法与文章第一段中“1905年，比奈应法国教育部的要求，设计出一种方法，用于在法国学校里找出那些脑力过于不济，而无从在一般学校受益，需要特殊教育的儿童”表达的信息不符。因此，本题的正确答案应是B。
