The intelligence test used most often today are based on the work of a Frenchman,Alfred Binet.In l905,Binet Was asked by the French Ministry of Education to develop a way to identify those childtIin French schools who were too“mentally deficient(不足的)”to benefit from ordinary schooling andwho needed special education.The tests had to distinguish those who were merely behind in schoodfrom those who were actually mentally deficient.
The items that Binet and his colleague Theophile Simon included on the test were chosen on the basis of their ideas about intelligence.Binet and Simon believed intelligence includes such abilitiesas understanding the meaning of words;solving problems,and making commonsense judgements.Two other important assumptions also shaped Binet’s and Simon’s work:(1)that children with moreintelligence will do better in school and(2)that older children have a greater ability than youngerchildren.
Binet’S first test consisted of t}lirty tasks.They were simple things most children learn as a result oftheir everyday experiences.The tasks were arranged in groups.according to age.Binet decided whichtasks were appropriate for a given age group by giving them first to a large number of children of differentages.If more than half of the children of a given age passed a test,it was considered appropriate for thatage group.

The strange close understanding between twins is a familiar enough phenomenon.Often theyseem to understand each other and share each other’s emotions to such an extent that one suspectssome kind of thought communication.
What is not so widely known is that this special relationship often acts as brake on twins’intellectual development.As they are partly isolated in their own private world,twins communicate lesswith adults than do other children.The verbal ability of a four—year—old twin is typically six monthsbehind that of a non-twin.The problem can be particularly severe in an underprivileged family,aone-parent family for example,where there is little stimulation for children anyway.
Such children,while capable of mutual comprehension in a private language,often remainincomprehensible to outsiders and thus at a severe educational disadvantage.The only solution tothe problem,cruel though it may seem,is to separate the twins thus forcing them to acquire ordinaryspeech helped and guided by sympathetic parents and teachers.
