What is intelligence anyway?

Sarah has promised her mother that she will ring her to let know that they have arrived safely. This is something she has done ever since she was a child. Brian thinks it is silly idea to ring so far, to spend so much, and to say so little. “ If there were an accident,” he says, “ theyd know soon enough. Bad news travels fast.” But Sarah has promised that she would ring. “ Besides,” she says,“it doesnt cost much when you consider that its the other side of the world. Its only six pence per second.” “ If youre on that telephone for less than one minute, Ill eat my hat.” Brian says,“And one minutes nearly four pounds.” “ Thats no more than youd pay for a new hat,” Sarah replies. She has asked the man at the hotel desk to get her the number. The telephone rings. Sarah picks it up. “ Hello, Mum. Is that you?” she says. “ Six pence per second,” Brian reminds her. “ Hello, love.” It is Mrs. Lee, Sarahs mother, speaking from London. “My word, you do sound clear. You could be in the next room. Its a better line than when you used to call me from the University. Do you remember? I used to shout and still you couldnt hear me sometimes. And just think, youre on the other side of the world.” “ Yes, Mum,” Sarah puts in, “ I just wanted to ring to” “ I remember how you used to ring when you went to Bettys house to tea, when you were a little girl. And then when you used to go to camp with the Guides” Mrs Lee is a great talker. “ Nearly four pounds,” says Brian. Sarah manages to tell her mother that it is time to say goodbye. “ Yes, all right.” Says Mrs. Lee. “But you will write, wont you, like you used to do when you were at University” Once again, Mrs. Lee speaks fondly of the past, and there is no stopping her. “ Four pounds fifty,” says Brian. Finally, Sarah cuts her mother short, promises to write, and rings off. “ ThereThat wasnt long , was it?” “Four pounds, ninety pence,” Brian replies. “And you didnt even say that weve arrived”1.

I remember watching trains flash by sand wishing I was on board. I remember going to the airport with my parents when I was 13 and reading the destinations board, seeing all the places that I could go to : Los Angeles, Chicago, London.But the trains passed by and the planes took off without me, so I wandered the world through books. I went to Victorian England in the pages of Middlemarch and A Little Princess, and to St. Petersburg before the fall of the tsar(沙皇) with Anna Karenina.My home was in a pleasant outside Philadelphia. But really lived, truly lived, somewhere else. I lived within the covers of books. I traveled, not only to the other worlds, but into my own. I learned who I was and I wanted to be, what I might achieve, and what I might dare to dream about my world and myself.I travel today in the way I once dreamed of traveling as a childon airplanes and in rains. And the irony is that I dont care for it very much. I am the sort of person who prefers to stay at home, surrounded by family, friends, books. The only thing I do like about traveling is the time on airplanes spent reading. It turns out that when my younger self thought of taking wing, she wanted only to let her spirit soar. Books are the plane, and the road. They are the real destinations, and the journey too. They are home.6.

But the blues is something else. Jazz has been developed into one of those intellectual art forms that scare people away. The blues can be faked. It is faked more today than ever before. But it is an emotional song and even the finest of blues singers cannot always possess true emotions, the real grief which is at the heart, in the soul. Of course, I had heard the blues all my life. I had heard it al as a teenage jazz fan in America, traveling long distance to sit, listening with religious reverence to the great progressive jazzmen of the day. But I was never moved by the blues until I was a young soldier, marching along one long, desperately hot afternoon under a south Texas sun. We were marching four abreast, rifles slung, singing as we swung along. An officer marched at the head of us. He did not sing. God knows how we hated them, the officers. We all hated them. The officer was only there for show. Like a fancy motor car radiator cap. Suddenly on our left there appeared this ghostly vision. All in white. Pure white. It was men. A prison work-gang. All black men dressed in white. They sang as they worked. They were not in chains, but men on horseback watched over them. The men on horseback were unmoved, bored by the singing of the prison work-gang. Maybe they heard too much of it. But the beauty of their singing stirred us. We stopped singing our own silly song as we drew near them. Many of us were university graduates. Being soldiers in the infantry was the closest we would ever come, with luck, to joining the down-trodden of the earth. The prison gang were singing some work-song. We all, al of us felt it; knew the feeling of the song for we were prisoners too and knew something at least of the longing tha
