问题     Lateral thinking(迂回思维), first described by Edward de Bone 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 Bone 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(诵读困难). 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 Bone decided to write his latest book, Teach Your Child How to Think, in which he transforms the thinking skills he developed for brainstorming 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 Bone 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.
It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that Edward______.

选项 A、was likely to improve children’s logic with his book
B、gave a description of lateral thinking several years after his son was born
C、was prompted to study lateral thinking because his son was slightly dyslexic
D、once taught businessmen how to think before he wrote for parents and children

答案D

解析 文章第二段讲到“…in which he transforms the thinking skills he developed for brainstorming businessmen into informal exercises for parents and children to share.”可见著书前爱德华曾经教商人如何去思考。所以D项正确。A、B、C项表达的内容与原文意思不符,在第二段中只是说将思维技巧转化成家长和孩子共同参与的非正规训练,但并没有提到培养逻辑性;爱德华描述迂回思维要比他的儿子出生早;而他的儿子患有轻微的诵读困难症时爱德华用他的迂回思维法训练他的儿子,但并不是因为这件事激励他研究迂回思维。所以本题的正确答案为D。
