And if that sounds impossible, consider this: Say you__e now looking at your picks. Could you compare them to each other and say which one is more beautiful? For example, who is more beautiful_ Katie Holmes or Angelina Jolie? How about Angelina Jolie or Catherine Zeta-Jones? I think intelligence is like this.

Good tests work: They measure a variety of mental abilities, and the best tests do it well. But they don__ measure intelligence itself.
