The old idea that talented children "burn themselves out" in the early years, and, therefore, are subjected to failure and at worst, mental illness is unfounded. As a matter of fact, the outstanding thing that happens to bright kids is that they are likely to grow into bright adults.
To find this out, 1 500 gifted persons were followed up to their thirty-fifth year with these results:
On adult intelligence tests, they scored as high as they had as children. They were, as a group, in good health, physically and mentally. 84 per cent of their group were married and seemed content with their lives.
About 70 per cent had graduated from college, though only 30 per cent had graduated with honors. A few had even dropped out, but nearly half of these had returned to graduate.
Of the men, 80 per cent were in one of the professions or in business management or semiprofessional jobs. The women who had remained single had office, business or professional occupations.
The group had published 90 books and 1 500 articles in scientific, scholarly, and literary magazines and had collected more than 100 patents.
In a material way they did not do badly either. Average income was considerably higher among the gifted people, especially the men, than for the country as a whole, despite their comparative youth.
In fact, far from being strange, most of the gifted were turning their early promise into practical reality.
Questions:
What’s the author’s attitude towards the old idea that talented children "burn themselves out" in the early years?
选项
A、Approval.
B、Objection.
C、Objectivity.
D、Indifference.
答案
B
解析
第5题我们可以从文章第一句中看出作者认为那种旧观点是无稽之谈。因此作者的态度应是批评、反对、不赞同等。所以本题的正确答案是B。
