问题     Lateral thinking (横向思维)，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 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 (不耐烦地说), "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 Bono 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 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.
It can be inferred from Para. 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 本题问从文章第二段中我们可以推断出爱德华怎样。根据第二段第五句，在儿子上大学后不久，爱德华·德·博诺决定写作自己的新书《教会孩子如何思维》，在这本书中，他把自己研究出的训练足智多谋的商人的思维技巧，转化为家长和孩子共享的一些日常思维训练。因此，本题的正确答案应是D“在为家长和孩子写书之前曾教商人如何思维”。
