It has been argued by some that gifted children should be grouped in special classes, The 　1 　has been on the belief that in regular classes these children are held back in their intellectual (智力的) growth by 　2　 　situation that has designed for the 　3　 　children.

There can be little doubt that 　4　 classes can help the gifted children to graduate earlier and take their place in life sooner. However, to take these 　5　 out of the regular classes may create serious problems.

I observed a number of 　6　 children who were taken out of a special class and placed in a 　7　 class. In the special class, they showed little ability to use their own judgment, relying 　8 　on their teachers’ directions. In the regular class, having no worry about ke()eping up, they began to reflect 　9　 on many problems, some of which were not on the school program.

Many are concerned that gifted children become 　10　 and lose interest in learning. However this　 11　 is more often from parents and teachers than from students, and some of these　 12　 　simply conclude that special classes should be set up for those who are　 13 　. Some top students do feel bored in class, but why they 　14　 　so goes far beyond the work they have in school. Studies have shown that to be bored is to be anxious. The gifted child whop is bored is an　 　15　 child.
