(A) Since then, intelligence tests have been mostly used to separate dull children in school from average or bright children, so that special educa- tion can be provided to the dull.

(B) In other words, intelligence tests give us a norm for each age.

(C) Intelligence is expressed as intelligence quo- tient, and tests are developed to indicate what an average child of a certain age can do-what a 5-year-old can answer, but a 4-year-old cannot, for instance.

$1$. Security inks exploit the same principle that causes the vivid and constantly changing colours of a film of oil on water.

(A) When two rays of light meet each other after be- ing reflected from these different surfaces, they have each traveled slightly different distances.

(B) The key is that the light is bouncing off two surfaces, that of the oil and that of the water layer below it.

(C) The distance the two rays travel determines which wavelengths, and hence colours, interface constructively and look bright.

(D) Because light is an electromagnetic wave, the peaks and troughs of each ray then interface either constructively, to appear bright, or de- structively, to appear dim.

$6$. Since the distance the rays travel changes with the angle as you look at the surface, different colours look bright from different viewing angles.

(B) In low light conditions, they behave less bel- ligerently, but are more prone to ophthalmic disorders and respiratory problems.

(C) In an experiment, aggressive head pecking was all but eliminated among birds in the enriched environment

(D) Altering the bird's environment, by adding bales of wood-shavings to their pens, can work wonders.

$6$. Bales could diminish aggressiveness and reduce in- juries; they might even improve productivity, since a happy chicken is a productive chicken.

(B) Given the importance of interpretation in historical and literary scholarship, humanities researchers are in a position where they can explain away deliberate and even systematic distortion.

(C) Mere suspicion is enough for funding to be cut off, publicity guarantees that careers can be effectively ended

(D) Forgeries, which take the form of practices in which the forger intersperses fake and real parts can be defended as mere mistakes or aberrant misreading.

$6$. Scientists fudging data have no such defences.
