　　When we talked about intelligence(智力), we d o not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kind of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.

　　For example, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tried to find out all he can, and then he acts at once and tries to do something about it. He probably isn’t sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And if he cannot make things work out right, he doesn’t feel ashamed(羞愧的) that he failed, he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeling about life and how he fits into it.

　　If you look at children, you’ll see great difference between what we call “bright” children and “not-bright’ children. In fact, they are two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence. For example, the bright child really want to find out about life. He tries to come into contact with everything around him. But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own-dream world — He seems to have a wall between him and life in general.
