About intelligence
When we talk about intelligence, we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence,we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.
For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn't sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And if he cannot make things work out right, he doesn't feel ashamed that he failed, he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life and a special feeling about life.
If you look at children, you'll see great differences between what we call "bright" children and "not bright" children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amounts of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life -- he tried to get in touch with everything around him. But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dreamworld; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.
關于智力
當我們談論智力的時候，不是指在某些考試中取得優異成績的能力，甚至不是指在學校中達到學業優秀的能力。我們所說的智力指的是一種生活行為的方式，特別是處于
新環境或逆境中的時候。如果我們想要對智力加以測試，我們需要發現一個人如何行事而不是他對做什么了解多少。
比如，當處于一種新環境中時，聰明人會對環境進行思考，而不是想他自己或者想可能會在他身上發生什么事情。他努力發現所能了解的任何情況，然后立即行動，并試圖對此采取一定措施。他也許不能肯定是否能成功，但至少他努力過。而且如果他不能使事情成功，他也不會為失敗感到羞恥，他只會努力從錯誤中吸取教訓。一個聰明人，即使很年輕，也對生活有著不同尋常的見解和感悟。
看看孩子們，你會發現在我們所謂的“聰明孩子”和“不聰明孩子”之間存在著重大差異。他們實際上是兩種人，而不僅僅是智力水平不盡相同的一種人。比如
