For the past several years, the Sunday newspaper supplement Parade has featured a column called “Ask Marilyn.” People are invited to query Marilyn vos Savant, who at age 10 had tested at a mental level of someone about 23 years old; that gave her an IQ of 228—the highest score ever recorded. IQ tests ask you to complete verbal and visual analogies, to envision paper after it has been folded and cut, and to deduce numerical sequences, among other similar tasks. So it is a bit confusing when vos Savant fields such queries from the average Joe (whose IQ is 100) as: What’s the difference between love and fondness? Or what is the nature of luck and coincidence? It’s not obvious how the capacity to visualize objects and to figure out numerical patterns suits one to answer questions that have eluded some of the best poets and philosophers.
26. Which of the following may be required in an intelligence test?
[A] Answering philosophical questions.
[B] Folding or cutting paper into different shapes.
✔[C] Telling the differences between certain concepts.
✔[D] Choosing words or graphs similar to the given ones.

For the past several years, the Sunday newspaper supplement Parade周日报纸副刊 游行 has featured a column专栏 called “Ask Marilyn玛里琳.” 在过去几年。周日报纸的副刊《漫步》推出了一个专栏叫做问马丽玲。↓
在过去几年里,《星期日报》增刊《漫步》上刊登了一个名为“提问玛丽莲”的专栏。
People are invited to query Marilyn vos Savant, who at age 10 had tested at a mental level of someone about 23 years old; that gave her an IQ of 228—the highest score ever recorded. 人们被邀请来询问玛丽莲·沃斯·莎凡特,一个被测试出心智水平有23岁的十岁小孩,她的IQ是曾经测试过的最高值记录228。↓
这个专栏邀请人们向玛丽莲·冯·莎凡提出各种问题。此人10岁时参加智力测验,测出了相当于普通人23岁左右的智力水平,测出智商为228——这是智商的最高纪录。
IQ tests ask you to complete verbal and visual语言和视觉 analogies相似,类推to envision想象 paper after it has been folded and cut, and to deduce推断 numerical sequences数字序列, among other similar tasks.IQ测试要求你完成语言和视觉类推,去想象一个被折叠和剪切的纸,推断数字序列。等等其他类似的测试。↓
智力测验要求你完成的任务常常是:语言和图形类比、想象纸张折叠和剪切后的形状、推导数字序列,等等。
So it is a bit confusing when vos Savant fields现场回答 such queries from the average Joe (whose IQ is 100) as: What’s the difference between love and fondness? Or what is the nature本质 of luck and coincidence? 这类实验对于一个普通人(其智商100)是有一些混乱的:爱和喜欢,或者幸运和巧合之间的不同。↓
因此,让莎凡回答普通人(智商为100分)提出的诸如“爱与喜欢有何区别是什么”或“运气和巧合的本质是什么”这类问题时,令人感到有些困惑。
It’s not obvious how the capacity能力 to visualize想象 objects物体 and to figure out numerical patterns suits使……能够 one to answer questions that have eluded逃避 some of the best poets and philosophers. (这段话明天好好学习)
具备想象物体形状和推算数列的能力的人,可不一定就具备足够的能力来回答那些连最优秀的诗人和哲学家都不甚理解、避而不谈的问题。
