二、阅读理解
Have you ever heard of the saying, \follow when trying to judge the intelligence of others. Some people have minds that shine only in certain situations. A young man with an unusual gift in writing may find himself unable to say a single word in front of a pretty girl. When he speaks, he may not be able to find the right words. But don't make the mistake of thinking him stupid; with a pen and paper, he can express himself better than anybody else.
Other people may fool you into thinking highly of their intelligence by putting up a good front. A student who listens carefully and takes notes in class is found to make a favorable impression on his teachers. But when it comes to exams, he may score near the bottom of the class.
It all boils down to this: you can't judge someone by appearance. The only way to determine a person's intelligence is to get to know him or her. Then you can see how he or she deals with different situations. The more situations you see, the better your judgment is likely to be. So take
