Enhanced Intelligence A Smart Idea

Personality's Part and Parcel By Paul Chance There are," he said, "two kinds of people: idea people and feeling people. I think you're an idea person." My speech professor was trying to cheer me up after one of the more humiliating experiences in a humiliating freshman year. He had this idea that people would become better public speakers if they first practiced doing really silly things in front of a group. He had me stand before the class, one foot in front of the other, and rock back and forth while swinging my arms, ape fashion, and chanting: "aaahhooooo, aaahhoooo." I did it, but I did it with an embarrassed stiffness you might expect from Richard Nixon if you made him moon walk. Like I said, it was humiliating. The prof's philosophical musings were make it as an actor," he was saying, "but you might make it in some more bookish occupation." I took the personality assessment in stride and immediately began wondering (as befitted my bookish personality) whether the entire human population could be categorized by this, or any other, two-legged dichotomy. Was it really true that there were only two kinds of people in the world? I had problems with the "feeling and idea" pigeonholes right from the start. I couldn't help wondering why, if I was an idea person, I was in danger of flunking out of college, was it because my classes placed little emphasis on ideas? I did do better in subsequent years, when the ideas became more plentiful and interesting than they had been in my freshman speech class. But somehow, the idea-feeling theory of personality came across to me as lacking predictability. Another problem I ran into was that there were lots of competing theories about the tow kinds of people in the world. One familiar idea is that everybody is either an optimist or a pessimist. Optimists are sure that they'll never die, and that if they do die they'll wake up to the glory of heaven. Pessimists are sure that they won't live much longer, and that if they wake up in heaven, they won't like it. Another theory says that people are either realists or idealists. A realist is a person who knows which side of the bread is buttered; an idealist has more important things to worry about. The consensus is that realists eat better than idealists. Other folks divide the human race into animal people and plant people. Animal people talk to their furry and feathered companions in melodious tones about everything from the price of cheese to American foreign policy, as if the animals picked up every word that was said. Plant people look upon such displays as sentimental and silly. And they expound upon their views in great detail to their annual and perennial friends. In recent years we've heard a lot about Type A and Type B personalities. Type B people eat lunch at home or in a restaurant and take their time about doing it. Type A people ram down a hot dog while running up an escalator. Type A people work harder at making money than Type B people, but they don't know how to enjoy it. Type B people know how to enjoy money, but aren't sure it's worth the bother to get it. Of course, the idea that everyone can be tagged with one or tow labels doesn't appeal to everybody. There are lots of psychologists, for example, who would argue that there aren't two kinds of people, or six, or eight or thirty-seven. There are as many kinds of people as there are people. And each person may be different people at different times. Being a human being is a complicated business, these psychologists point out, and you cannot arbitrarily squeeze everybody into one of tow categories. Despite these doubts, I think there is some merit to the idea that there ate two kinds of people. In fact, I've come up with my own theory. I propose that there are two kinds of people in the world: those who believe there are two kinds of people and those who don't. I place myself in the second category. How about you? a- which personality categorizations does the author mention in the article? b- What is the author's final assertion about personality types? Do you agree with it? Why or why not?

Enhanced Intelligence: A Smart Idea?
We are not far from an era when it will be possible to choose the physical traits of children to be born. With some in-utero gene manipulation, you will soon be able to customize your child according to your tastes. You might be able to choose skin, eye, and hair color, the shape of the nose and lips, body height and build. Appealing as this may sound, such a procedure might put in danger one of the most precious characteristics of humanity: its variety. In the rush to look beautiful, people will all start looking similar: taller and slimmer. For people who cherish variety, this is a frightening thought.
