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、A child with an average IQ may not be successful when he grows up.
B、Some children’s abilities can not be easily measured.
C、A child should be judged on his IQ level.
D、Being happy in life is being good at everything.

答案B

解析 细节题。听音前应快速浏览并了解4个选项的大意,A项“IQ水平中等的小孩长大后不一定成功”的说法不符合客观事实,可首先排除。C项“凭IQ水平断定小孩”说法过于绝对,也不符合常理。对话提到“you’re saying is that some children have abilities that are not easy to measure”,因此B项符合原意。
