Read the following passage and answer the questions.
To think of the geniuses and the glfted as having uniquely different brains is only reasonable if we accept that each human brain is uniquely different. The purpose of instruction is to make us even more different from one another. In the process of being educated we can learn from the achievements of those more gifted than ourselves. But before we try to emulate geniuses, or encourage our children to do So, we should note that some of the things we learn from them may prove unpalatable. We may envy their achievements and fame, but we should also recognise the price they may have pald in terms of perseverance, singlemindedness, dedication, restrictions on their personal lives, the demands upon their energy and time, and how often they had to display great courage to preserve their integrity or to make their way to the top.
Genlus and giftedness are relative and descriptive terms of no real substance. We may, at best, give them some precision by defining them and placing them in a context but, whatever we do, we should never delude ourselves into believing that gifted children or geniuses are different from the rest of humanity, except in the degree to which they have developed their abilities.
