Soon we had an idea of finding a hidden treasure, but we had to find out how to make this happen. We went upstairs to my parents' bedroom which was always tidy and smelled like my mother's perfume. Opening the silver lid of the glass jar, we looked nervously inside and removed my mother's pretty pearl ring and diamond ring. Mom only wore them when she got dressed up to go somewhere, so Toby believed she wouldn't miss them. We wrapped them up tightly in toilet paper and quickly ran out into the big field where we often pretended tO ride wild horses. We brought along a big kitchen spoon to dig a hole and buried the rings. "Don't tell anyone." Toby made me promise. For some unknown reason we forgot to go back later. It was almost a week before my mother realized her rings were missing and she was driven mad. The look on my face must have been a dead give-away and it wasn't long before I told the whole story about my adventure with Toby. Only then did I realize the seriousness of my crime. "Show me where," my mother demanded. So off we went for the rings. But I couldn't remember exactly where! We dug in several places without success. Eventually we gave up, and amazingly my mother didn't shout at me. One day about six years later, a farmer found a pearl ring in the soil and he kindly handed it over to my mother, who was overjoyed. This discovery started an exciting new search. But the other was never discovered. Many years later, I noticed my sister wearing the pearl ring. When I asked my mother how, she answered, "Well, I always planned to give my good rings to my daughters someday and you were supposed to get the diamond one!"

       It was Christmas Day 1999.On CNN, talk show host Larry King was interviewing Stephen Hawking.

       “What, professor, puzzled you the most?” King asked. “What do you thing about the most?”

       Hawking immediately replied, “Women.”

       It’s a comfort that Hawking, one of the smartest men in the world, is puzzled by the opposite sex.But, that’s not surprising, according to Satoshi Kanazawa.Bright people are no better than anyone else at making smart decisions about common things, he says.These include finding a mate, maintaining family relationships, raising children, finding the way home, and handling a variety of basic life needs.

       That’s because there are several kinds of formal “intelligence”, Kanazawa argues.Being smart one way does not necessary mean smart in another way.This view is sure to cause arguments among scientists who think about thinking.That is because it disagrees with the common view that general intelligence is a single thing.In that view, it is not, as Kanazawa and others say, set of independent mental areas.

       Kanazawa says that some kinds of intelligence developed slowly over time.Many people have heard about what is called “emotional intelligence”.Now, psychologists have discovered several other types of intelligence.These include the ability to learn a language, find a mate, recognize faces, and locate oneself in a new environment.

       But, is there evidence to support the theory that intelligence comes in many forms? “Actually, there is quite a lot of evidence”, Kanazawa says.“If there were only one type of intelligence”, he adds, “Then people with high IQs should be ‘smart’ in every way.”

       In one test, a psychologist took a group of subjects on a bike, walking into the forest.He then told them to find their way back.The high IQ people were no more likely to be able to find out where they were.In another experiment, a researcher asked people to find their way to a specific location in a computer maze(迷宫).Once again, high IQ did not give them any edge
