INTELLIGENCE

Scientists define intelligence as a ability to learn or to understand. People who are intelligent learn what they are taught easily and quickly. Intelligent persons also remember what they have learned. This knowledge can then be used in new situations or problems. Intelligent person faced with some problems or situations that they have never met before will use their knowledge and memory of situations in the past to solve the problem.

Many psychologist believe that intelligence can be measured with various kinds of tests. These scientists believe that if a person can deal intelligently with some problems in a test, he or she will also deal intelligently with problems in everyday life.

Psychologists express the results of an intelligence test in a number called an IQ (intelligence quotient). T determine this number, they first give tests to find the person's mental age. Two young people of 8 and 16 may both have a mental age of 12. The younger person has obviously developed faster than the older. But their mental age does not show difference in their rates of mental growth. The mental age of the younger person is far above his or her chronological age (age in years). But the older person's mental age is far below his or her chronological age. Therefore, psychologists developed the formula.

MA (mental age)
IQ= x
100
CA (chronological
ag£)
This means that the person's mental age is divided by his or her chronological age. The quotient is multiplied'by 100, and the number that


results is the IQ. This number represents the way that someone's intelligence compares with that of other people of his or her age. The 8-year-old person's IQ is 150, the 16-year-old's is 75.

But many people believe that intelligence tests do not really measure someone's ability. Many test seem to measure what someone has learned rather than how quickly or slowly he or she can learn. Other people think that intelligence cannot be measured accurately.

What makes one person intelligent and another not so intelligent? Are people born with the basic intelligence that the will have all their lives? Is intelligence affected by a person's home life or the number of books he or she reads? Scientists are still studying these questions.

Human beings are the most intelligent animals. People have built cities, written books, and traveled to the moon. Since a human being is certainly not the biggest animal, or the animal with the biggest brain, intelligence cannot be measured by size. But studies of other animals are showing that a human being is definitely not the only animal with intelligence.

Other animals can communicate with each other, but they cannot read. They cannot do mathematics or build complicated things like automobiles or airplanes. Still, animals learn very quickly the things they have to know in order to say alive and health. Animals also remember things they have learned.

An animal in the jungle knows who its enemies are, and it keeps out of their way. It knows what foods are good for it and how to find these foods. Animals teach these things to their young.

UNIT 13
LONELINESS
Before reading the passage , answer these questions

1. Do you ever feel lonely?
2. Why do we fell lonely?
3. What is your feeling when you're lonely?

Although many people value relationship above all else , satisfying ties are hard to achieve and loneliness is a common dilemma for both children and adults ( Rubbin,1982). The experience of loneliness , although conceptualized in various ways, has two defining features .first, it is unpleasant ; second , the lonely person perceives deficiencies in social in relationship ( de Jong- Giervield & Raadsschelders,in 1982; D Russell , 1984). One may be cut off from social ties without feeling lonely . Loneliness can occur in these overlapping situations (Peplau & Pearlman, 1982) Changes in social relations. Close relationship often end as one partner moves away psychologically or physically or dies. The equality of relationships sometimes deteriorates with time.
1. Changes in social needs , which vary throughout the live span, people experience loneliness. Adolescents, for example, often long for intimacy before they find a companion ( Brennan, 1982). After devotion to work during early adulthood, many middle -aged adults turn again to social ties for live satisfaction and fine their lives empty.
2. Personal qualities. Lonely individuals appear more negative, rejecting, self- absorbed, self- critical, and less responsive than others (Brenna,1982; Horowitz et al,1982; Jones ,1982, Stokes, 1985). Even if involved with a number of people negativity may incline the lonely to dwell on the deficiencies also show up in the psychology laboratory, where lonely people find it hard to think of ways to solve problems with others. ( for Example : You just moved into a new neighborhood. How would you go about finding some friends?) Limited social skills reduce opportunities for relationship building and keep people from taking advantage of opportunities that arise.
3. Cultural influences. Cultural emphases on competition and independence can interfere with interpersonal needs.
4. Situational influences. When people live on work in isolation ,loneliness is more troublesome. Life changes such as becoming housebound , losing transportation , moving, or traveling may cut some individuals off from others . In one study , three out of every four college students living away from their families admitted experiencing loneliness during their first term ( Cutrona,1982)
