When we talk about intelligence, we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school subjects. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting 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 instance, 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 he can, and then he acts immediately and tried 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 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 a great difference in what we call “bright” children and “not bright” children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amounts of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life, he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream world: he seems to have a walk between him and life in general.

     Educating girls quite possibly gets a higher rate of reward than any other investment (投资) available
in the developing world. Women's education may be an unusual field for economists (经济学家), but
increasing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue. And
economics, with its focus on encouragement, provides all explanation for why so many girls fail to receive
an education.
     Parents in low-income countries don't invest willingly in their daughters because they do not expect
them to make an economic contribution to the family: girls grow up only to marry into somebody else's
family and bear children. Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and usually have to stay at home
to do housework while their brothers are sent to school.
     An educated mother, on the other hand, has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an
entirely different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on
developing all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance. The education of her
daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls, as well as of boys, will be
educated and healthy.
     Few will argue that educating women has great social benefits. But it has huge economic advantages
as well. Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers. Wages
rise by 10 to 20 percent for each additional year of schooling. Such big returns are impressive by the
standard of other available investments, but they are just the beginning. Educating women also has a
significant influence on health practices, including family planning.
