When we talk about intelligence(智力)，we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school．By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving(表现)，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 tries to find out all can be，and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it．Probably he 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)that he failed，he just tries to learn from his mistakes．An intelligent person，even if he is very young，has a special outlook(看法)on life，a special feeling about life，and how he fits into it．
If you look at children，you’ll see the great differences between what we call “bright” children and “non-bright” children．They are actually two different kinds of people，not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence．For example，the bright child really wants to find out about life, and he tries to get in touch with everything around him; while the unintelligent(不聪明的) child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world：he seems to have a wall between him and life in general．According to this passage，intelligence is the ability to_________．

The face﹣down generation（一代）
If you were born in the 2000s， you are called the oh﹣ohs． The 21st century． That would make you young， creative， connected， world﹣wide， and no doubt smart． Maybe good﹣looking， too． Right？ But what do other people think about your generation？
Some adults worry that you're more interested in the screen in front of you than the world around you． They think of you as the "face﹣down generation" because you use your phone so much． They wonder how you will deal with school， friends， and family．
Other adults worry that today's youth are spoilt（溺爱）and don't want to face the challenges of adult life． Many children born in the 1990s and 2000s were raised by "helicopter parents"． They were always there to guide and help their children with a busy program filled with homework and after﹣school activities such as dancing， drawing， or sports． With parents who do everything for them， today's youth seem to prefer to live like teenagers even when they are in their 20s or 30s．
Does the face﹣down generation need a heads﹣up？ Well， probably not． The fact．is that many of today's teenagers are better educated and more creative than past generations． They seem to be willing to become leaders． More young people than ever volunteer to help their communities． There are also brave young people such as Malala Yousafzai， the teenager who won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for pushing girls' rights to go to school．
So if you're one of the oh﹣ohs， there's reason to be hopeful about the future． Things are looking up for the face﹣down generation． Chances are that you do great and laugh out loud．

My name is Wei Hua and I'm a sporting robot of the 23rd century． I'm clever at high flying exercises． I jump from spaceships and as I fall， I turn， dive， circle and dance until I softly land as close as I can to the finishing line．Robot competitions in the 23rd century are truly a popular sport． Fans from all over China watch their hand﹣held TVs when a competition comes on． Last time I took part in the 78th Olympics and I won the silver medal for my performance．
This year I was very proud to be chosen again． I wanted to meet robots from other countries and explore ideas about our sport． However， my programmer fell ill the week before we were leaving． It was very painful for her and I felt very scared． I didn't feel so confident that I would win．
The day of the competition was rather cold for my legs and my special oil began to freeze． I stopped for a moment（which I shouldn't）before I jumped from the starting place on a little spaceship， then I began my performance． At the correct moment I tried to open my parachute（降落伞）but there was a problem． It only opened a little． I began to fall faster and faster so that I could not turn， dive， circle or dance． My heart stopped beating as I landed heavily on a mountain covered with snow．
This is why I am writing to you from my hospital bed with two broken legs and a weak head． I did not win anything at the Olympics after all． I need the factory to build me two new legs and an even bigger head． Then I will be able to compete once more． Let's hope for greater success in the next Olympics!
