Lateral thinking, first described by Edward de Bono in 1967, is just a few years older than Edward’s son. You might imagine that Caspar was raised to be an adventurous thinker, but the de Bono name was so famous, Caspar’s parents worried that any time he would say something bright at school, his teachers might snap, "Where do you get that idea from?"
"We had to be careful and not overdo it," Edward admits. Now Caspar is at Oxford—which once looked unlikely because he is also slightly dyslexic. In fact, when he was applying to Oxford, none of his school teachers thought he had a chance. "So then we did several thinking sessions," his father says, "using my techniques and, when he went up for the exam, he did extremely well." Soon after, Edward de Bono decided to write his latest book, "Teach Your Child How to Think", in which he transforms the thinking skills he developed for brain-storming businessmen into informal exercises for parents and children to share.
Thinking is traditionally regarded as something executed in a logical sequence, and everybody knows that children aren’t very logical. So isn’t it an uphill battle, trying to teach them to think? "You know," Edward de Bono says, "if you examine people’s thinking, it is quite unusual to find faults of logic. But the faults of perception are huge! Often we think ineffectively because we take too limited a view."
"Teach Your Child How to Think" offers lessons in perception improvement, of clearly seeing the implications of something you are saying and of exploring the alternatives.
What is TRUE about Caspar?
选项
A、He is Edward’s son.
B、He is an adventurous thinker.
C、He first described lateral thinking.
D、He is often scolded by his teacher.
答案
A
解析
第一段指出,1967年,爱德华·德·博诺首次描述了“迂回思维”模式,几年后他的儿子才临世。所以,人们可能想象卡斯珀会被培养为一个开拓型思维的人;但是,由于当时德-博诺的名字太为人所知了,卡斯珀的父母反而担心:如果他(指卡斯珀)在学校出言不凡,老师可能诘问他:“你哪里来的这种想法?”从第二句可以更明确地看出,卡斯珀的“父母”即指德·博诺夫妇。
