      Lateral thinking (迂回思维), 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 de Bono name was so famous, Casper’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 Casper is at Oxford —— which once looked unlikely because he is also slightly dyslexic (通读困难). 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 Bono decided to write his latest book, “Teach Your Children 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.  
According to Paragraph 3, which of the following statements expresses Edward de Bono’s view? ______.

选项 A、Everybody knows that children aren’t very logical.
B、It is an uphill battle trying to teach children to think.
C、We often think ineffectively because we take too limited a view.
D、Thinking is traditionally regarded as something executed in a logical sequence.

答案C

解析 根据第三段内容,下列选项能够表达Edward de Bono观点的陈述是;A 人人都知道孩子的思维是不太合乎逻辑的;B 试图教孩子思维足一场艰苦的战斗;C 我们经常不能有效思维是因为我们的视野过于狭隘;D 依据传统的观点,人们认为思维要按照一定的逻辑顺序进行。
