问题 The basic purpose of IQ tests is to______.
  
M: Why is it that some children perform much better than others at school?
F: Obviously, certain children are brighter than others, but it’s not as simple as that. A lot of emphasis is placed on intelligence measured by tests.
M: The so-called IQ tests?
F: Yes. Basically they are intended to test linguistic and numerical skills, so some children are bound to suffer. This is very unfortunate. A child with an average IQ may turn out to be successful when he grows up. .
M: What you’re saying is that some children have abilities that are not easy to measure, that aren’t appreciated.
F: Precisely. And if these skills are not spotted sufficiently early, they cannot be developed. That’s why, in my view, there are so many unhappy adults in this world. They are not doing the things they are best at.
M: I see.
F: But at school, only those children who are good with words and numbers, they probably do well in school examinations.
M: Right. Is there anything a parent can do to help in this case?
F: Yes. In my opinion, a child should be judged on his individual talents. After all, being happy in life is putting your skills to good use, no matter what they are.

选项 A、they don’t have proper education
B、they don’t have enough encouragement
C、their parents are not responsible
D、they are not good with words and numbers

答案D

解析 根据对话,有的小孩在学校的考试中表现出色是因为什么?留意原文这句话“at school,only thosechildren who ale good with words and numbers,they probably do well in school examinations”,再对比可知D正确。
