The old idea that child prodigies(神童) "burn themselves" or "overtax their brains" in the early years, therefore, are prey to failure and ( at worst) mental illness is just a myth. As a matter of fact, the outstanding thing that happens to bright children is that they are very likely to grow into bright adults.
To find this out, 1,500 gifted persons were followed up to their thirty-fifth year with these results.
On adult intelligence tests, they scored as high as they did as children. They were, as a group, in good health, physically and mentally. Eighty-four percent of their group were married and seemed content with their life.
About 70 percent had graduated from colleges, though only 30 percent had graduated with honors. A few had even flunked out (退学) , but nearly half of these had returned to graduate.
Of the men, 80 percent were in one of the professions or in business, managers or semi-professional jobs. The women who had remained single had offices, business, or professional occupations.
The group had published 90 books and 1,500 articles in scientific, scholarly, and literary magazines and had collected more than 100 patents(专利权).
In a material way they didn’t do badly either. Average income was considerably higher among the gifted people, especially the men, than for the country as a whole, despite their comparative youth when last surveyed.
In fact, far from being strange, maladjusted (难以适应)people locked in an ivory tower, most of the gifted were turning their early promises into practical reality. [br] The statement that child prodigies"burn themselves"or"overtax their brains"are prey to failure is______.
选项
A、exacdy reasonable
B、doubted by the author
C、an idea of old men
D、a belief of the author
答案
B
解析
(怎么评价神童因过渡消耗脑力而注定失败这一说法?)文章第一句中的“…is a myth”及第二句中表转折的短语“As a matter of fact"是信息提示的关键词,表明了作者质疑并否定了这一说法,所以选项B为正确答案。
