10歲女孩智商測試滿分 162分超愛因斯坦

A child prodigy with an IQ higher than Albert Einstein is celebrating becoming a unique member of Mensa. Nishi Uggalle, ten, is one of the youngest people in the country to score the highest possible mark of 162 in the IQ society's supervised testing.

一位智商比愛因斯坦還高的天才兒童正慶祝自己成爲門薩的特殊會員。這位小姑娘是妮詩·尤佳拉，今年10歲，在門薩智商測試中拿到了162分的高分，是英國得分最高且最年輕的參試者之一。

The Mensa Supervised IQ Test can only be taken by children aged over ten-and-a-half and consists of two separate industry-standard assessments. One measures mainly verbal reasoning skills and the other, which includes diagrams and images, assesses visual and spatial logic. And Nishi, from Audenshaw in Tameside, scored the highest possible mark of 162 in the first test – known as the Cattell III B score. She scored 142 in the second element, the Culture Fare Scale, with the results putting her in the top one per cent of the nation in terms of IQ. Anyone scoring a percentile of two in any Mensa test is admitted to the society.

門薩智商測試的參試者必須是超過十歲半的兒童，測試包括兩部分獨立的行業標準評估。一部分主要測試語言推理能力;而另一部分包含表格和圖形，測試視覺和空間邏輯能力。而來自坦姆賽德的妮詩在第一部分卡特爾III B測試中得到了最高的162分，在第二部分的文化能力量表(Culture Fare Scale)中得到了142分，該測試結果使她名列英國智商最高的前1%人羣，而門薩測試成績前2%的參試者都可以成爲門薩會員。

The controlled test takes two-and-a-half hours and, according to theories, Nishi's score and subsequentIQ of 162 would be two points higher than famous physicist Einstein.

測試採用閉卷形式，長達兩個半小時。理論上說，妮詩的測試成績以及由此推算出的162分智商比大名鼎鼎的物理學家愛因斯坦還要高2分。

The former pupil at Audenshaw's Poplar Street Primary is studying at Withington Girls' School and starts at Altrincham Grammar School for Girls in September. She lives with her parents, Neelanga and Shiromi, who moved to Manchester from Sri Lanka in 2001. Dad Neelanga, 44, praised Nishi's first teachers at Poplar Street Primary. He said: 'We knew very early on that she was gifted. She started reading and writing very early and was became very good at mathematics. We gave her challenging, interesting things to do. As a parent, you do not want their talents to be wasted, but there has to be a balance with their childhood. She is just a normal 10-year-old, just like any other 10-year-old really. She loves reading, cycling and walking, and we're all very proud of her.'

妮詩原來就讀於奧頓肖楊樹街小學，現在就讀於威辛頓女子學校，今年九月會進入奧爾特林厄姆女子語法學校。她與父母尼朗加和施若咪一起生活， 2001年，一家三口從斯里蘭卡搬到了曼徹斯特。44歲的父親尼朗加稱讚妮詩在楊樹街小學的啓蒙老師們功不可沒。他說：“我們很早就知道她有天賦，她很小就開始閱讀和寫字，而且非常擅長數學計算。我們讓她做一些有挑戰又有趣味的事。作爲父母，你不想讓孩子的天賦荒廢掉，但是在他們的童年時期又需要平衡。她只是一個普通的10歲小孩，真的就像任何其他的10歲小孩。她喜歡閱讀、騎車、散步，我們都爲她感到驕傲。”

John Stevenage, chief executive of British Mensa, said he was delighted for Nishi. He said: 'I hope she will make full use of her membership to meet new, like-minded people and challenge herself. Joining Mensa opens the door to an international network of more than 100,000 people and many members make friends for life.

英國門薩首席執行官約翰·斯蒂門尼奇說他爲妮詩感到高興。他說：“我希望她能充分利用好成爲門薩會員的機會，結交志趣相投的新朋友，不斷挑戰自己。加入門薩，就爲你打開了一扇大門。門薩是一個會員超過10萬人的世界網絡，很多會員會成爲終生好友。”
