问题     The intelligence tests used most often today are based on the work of a Frenchman, Alfred Binet. In 1905, Binet was asked by the French Ministry of Education to develop a way to identify those children in French schools who were too "mentally deficient" to benefit from ordinary schooling and who needed special education. The tests had to distinguish those who were merely behind in school from those who were actually mentally deficient.
    The items that Binet and his colleague Theophile Simon included in the test were chosen on the basis of their ideas about intelligence. Binet and Simon believed intelligence includes such abilities as understanding the meaning of words, solving problems, and making common-sense judgements. Two other important assumptions also shaped Binet’s and Simon’s work; (1) that children with more intelligence will do better in school and (2) that older children have a greater ability than younger children.
    Binet’s first test consisted of thirty tasks. They were simple things most children learn as a result of their everyday experiences. The tasks were arranged in groups, according to age. Binet decided which tasks were appropriate for a given age group by giving them first to a large number of children of different ages. If more than half of the children of a given age passed a test, it was considered appropriate for that age group.
How did Binet decide which tasks to include on his first test?

选项 A、He first gave some of the tasks to different groups of children.
B、He first gave the tasks to many children he thought appropriate.
C、He first gave all the tasks to many children regardless of their age.
D、He first worked out thirty tasks for mentally deficient children.

答案C

解析 本题是一道具体细节题。问比奈是怎样决定在他设计的第一个智力测验中要包括哪些内容的。利用查阅式阅读法,我们可以在文章的第三段中找到相关信息。这段指出,比奈的第一项测试包含30个测试题目,它们都是些大多数孩子在日常经历中所学的很简单的事情。这些题目根据年龄分为若干组。比奈首先让不同年龄的好多孩子们答题,以便确定哪些题目适用于某一特定的年龄组。如果某一特定年龄组的多半儿童通过测试,那么就认为这一测试适合于该年龄组。因此,本题的正确答案应是C“他先不考虑孩子的年龄而让许多孩子来回答所有的问题”。
