共用题干 Approaches to Understanding IntelligencesIt pays to be smart,but we are not all smart in the same way.You may be a talented musician,but youmight not be a good reader.Each of us is different.Psychologists disagree about what is intelligence and what are talents or personal abilities.Psychologistshave two different views on intelligence.Some believe there is one general intelligence.Others believe there are many different intelligences.Some psychologists say there is one type of intelligence that can be measured with IQ tests.Thesepsychologists support their view with research that concludes that people who do well on one kind of test for mental ability do well on other tests.They do well on tests using words,numbers,or pictures.They do well on individual or group tests,and written or oral tests.Those who do poorly on one test,do the same on alltests.Studies of the brain show that there is a biological basis for general intelligence.The brains of intelli-gent people use less energy during problem solving.The brain waves of people with higher intelligence show a quicker reaction.Some researchers conclude that differences in intelligence result from differences in the speed and effectiveness of information processing by the brain.Howard Gardner,a psychologist at the Harvard School of Education,has four children.He believes that all children are different and shouldn't be tested by one intelligence test.Although Gardner believes general intelligence exists,he doesn't think it tells much about the talents of a person outside of formal schooling.He thinks that the human mind has different intelligences.These intelligences allow us to solve the kinds of problems we are presented with in life.Each of us has different abilities within these intelligences.Gardner believes that the purpose of school should be to encourage development of all of our intelligences.Gardner says that his theory is based on biology.For example,when one part of the brain is injured,other parts of the brain still work.People who cannot talk because of brain damage can still sing.So,there is not just one intelligence to lose.Gardner has identified 8 different kinds of intelligence:linguistic,mathematical,spatial, musical , interpersonal , intrapersonal , body-kinesthetic(身体动觉的), and naturalistic.Which of the following statements is true concerning general intelligence?A:Most intelligent people do well on some intelligence tests.B:Intelligent people do not do well on group tests.C:Intelligent people do better on written tests than on oral tests.D:People doing well on one type of intelligence test do well on other tests.

was a Vote Leave campaigner during the eu referendum campaign in 2016.In fact,I was one of many Vote Leave volunteers who were in the headquarters on a daily basis.I met Boris Johnson Daniel Hannan and other pro-leave leaders.But I have come to the conclusion that there absolutely should be a referendum on the final Brexit deal.Here's why.Twice now the British people have been asked how they feel about our relationship with the European Union,and twice the British people have said:Hey,I'm not really sure.The first time was at the actual referendum in June 2016,in which the voting public was split 51.9%/48.1%.The second time was the 2017 general election,in which the question of our membership wasn't on the table,but the manner of our exit was,and the result was a hung parliament.The recent revelations concerning Cambridge analytica and AggregatelY,and their involvement in the referendum are serious and troubling.Next to the fact that the gove ment hasnt consulted the public at all on the kind of Brexit it wants,evidence of possible cheating and unethical practices fur-ther undermine the referendum's legitimacy.I wasn’t privy to financial goings-on at Vote Leave.But I remember being surprised when I heard about the formatin.on of BeLeave--the campaign group specifical argeting young people-and even more surprised when I heard the rumour that it was funded by Vote Leave,because that organisation already had a programme of activities to engage young people.I was part of it.Suffice to say,I believe there is evidence of ethical misconduct sing the EU referendum This evidence concerns Vote Leave in the main,but not exclusively.In 10 years'time,shouldn’t we be able to look pack and be certain that the decision to leave was the genuine will of the people,that the new relationship between the UK and the EU was broadly approved of,and that both of those things were in the best interests of the UK?I don't think anybody can say that,even two years after the referendum Why did I vote leave in the first place?Because i listened to the arguments,and nobody on the remain side had satisfactory answers to criticisms of our relationship with the EU.Successive British governments assented to consecutive EU treaties that brought European nations towards"an ever closer union with greater alignment on banking,foreign policy,travel and trade The biggest issues that the world will face over the next century are transnational.Large-scale migration,environmental issues,global food and water shortages,AI and the ethics of advanced technology.Having a substantial framework for national cooperation is a headstart to resolving those issues.I believe that it's possible to want to leave the EU and want international cooperation at the same time,but,setting aside their rhetorical flourishes that doesn't seem like the vision that the chief Brexi teers actually want The UK doesn't need a second in/out referendum-it would defeat the purpose of the first one However,it is vital that the Uk has another,separate referendum on the terms of the final exit arrangement.In that referendum,the public should have the opportunity to accept the deal the government has negotiated,to reject it and ask that it renegotiate,to reject it and leave the EU without a deal,or to remain in the EU he prime minister knows that delivering Brexit,any Brexit,has become an existential issue for the Conservative party in the medium term.So if there is to be another referendum,the government will have to be forced into granting it.This will be an extremely difficult task,and I'm not optimistic about our chances.But over the next year,I'm going to be campaigning with everything I have for that possibility.After all,I'm one of the people who got us into this mess
At the University of Kansas art museum,scientists tested the effect of different colored walls on two groups of visitors to an exhibit of paintings.For the first group the room was painted white;for the second,dark brown.Movement of each group was followed by an electrical equipment under the carpet.The experiment showed that those who entered the dark brown walked more quickly,covered more area,and spent less time in the room than people in the white one.Dark brown made people more active,but the activity ended sooner.Not only the choice of colors but also the general appearance of a room affects those inside.Another experiment presented people with photographs of faces whose energy was to be commented.Three groups of people were used;each was shown the same photos,but each group was in an ordinary room—a nice office.The third was in a tastefully designed living room with carpeting.Results showed that the people in the beautiful room tend to give higher marks to the faces than those in the ugly room did.Other studies that students do better on tests taken in comfortable room than in ordinary-looking or ugly rooms. Which of the following is the best expression of the main idea of this passage A.People in beautiful rooms tend to give higher marks to photos of faces than people in ugly rooms B.The color and general appearance of a room have a deeper effect on the behavior of the people in it C.The University of Kansas has studied the effects of the color of room on people’s behavior D.Beautifully furnished,light-coloured rooms make people more comfortable than ugly,dark rooms
