第40期 2007年text2 第4题
Such standardized tests may not assess all the important elements necessary to succeed in school and in 
life, argues Robert J. Sternberg. In his article “How Intelligent Is Intelligence Testing?”, Sternberg notes that traditional tests best assess analytical and verbal skills but fail to measure creativity and practical knowledge, components also critical to problem solving and life success. Moreover, IQ tests do not necessarily predict so well once populations or situations change. Research has found that IQ predicted leadership
skills when the tests were given under low-stress conditions, but under high-stress conditions, IQ was negatively correlated with leadership—that is, it predicted the opposite. Anyone who has toiled through SAT will testify that test-taking skill also matters, whether it’s knowing when to guess or what questions to skip.
29. We can conclude from the last paragraph that
[A] test scores may not be reliable indicators of one’s ability.
[B] IQ scores and SAT results are highly correlated.
[C] testing involves a lot of guesswork.
[D] traditional tests are out of date.

3.题目解析
【正确项精解】文中信息指出：传统的测试不能够评估出创造力和运用知识的能力。一旦测试人群或者测试环境变化，智商测试不一定预测准确。在高压力条件下进行测试时，智商与领导能力负相关。上述表明，智商测试的分数可能不是反映一个人能力的可靠指标，因此［A］选项正确，为第四段内容的“概括性”论述，且出现了may（可能），具有“委婉性”。
【干扰项分析】［B］选项属于典型的“无中生有”，文中虽然在第三段最后一句指出SAT是具备智商测试特点的另一种测试，但没有信息表明二者之间是否相关，因此是错误的。［C］选项则属于“以偏概全”，猜测行为只是在SAT考试中的一种应试技能之一，并不是所有的测试都有相当多的猜测行为，故错误。［D］选项是对传统测试的完全否定，而且文中也没有提到“过时”方面的信息
【技巧点拨】当选项中出现过于绝对的词时，该选项往往是干扰选项。相反，如果选项中出现比较委婉的词时，该选项很可能是正确选项。
【答案】A
