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.
What was the purpose of the intelligence test designed by Alfred Binet in 1905?
选项 A、To make sure who required particular schooling.
B、To put students in a right order.
C、To know who had received ordinary schooling.
D、To select top students.
答案A
解析 本题是一道具体细节题。问1905年阿尔福莱德·比奈设计的智力测验的目的是什么。利用查阅式阅读法，我们可以在文章的第一段中找到相关信息。这段指出，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。这些测试应能把那些只是学习成绩落后者与实质上脑力不济者加以区分。因此，本题的正确答案应是A“目的是确定那些需要特殊教育的儿童”。
