Since the man has knowledge about himself he has been searching the
answers of many questions that get in our minds. Now I am going to try to talk
about how we can define intelligence. However, a lot of people dont believe in the
power of our knowledge. In my opinion those people are wrong the intelligence for
me is the capacity to learn, the ability to solve a problem and ability to think
abstractly.
Fist, Human history has been marked for the capacity to learn. Since our
beginnings humans have been tried to achieve knowledge using the experience.
For example, when the first humans saw fire they tried to touch it and they were
burned, then they know that the fire could burn them. When you are a baby you
also learn since you were in the womb. For example, babies learn since they were
in the womb his mothers voice. Also humans learn a lot of nature, he try to
recreate it. For example, planes were made thinking how the birds can fly. Actually
humans have a huge capacity to learn about nature, experiences and facts. This
impulse us to create and imagine better things.
However, the man has well developed the ability to solve problems. Also
mathematics were made by humans, those help us to solve the problems that the
nature put on our way. For example, newton could explain how an apple fell of
trees using mathematics, he calculate this based on a theory of all the objects in
the earth feel attracted by the planets center. In Rome they have a huge problem,
how they carry water in to their megacities, thanks of capacity to solve problems of
ancient engineers they could improve this problem. For example they invent the
aqueduct to solve this problem, they carry the invaluable water of a near river,
across those aqueducts and then this finished in the cities. Across the time
humanity has been needed energy, but thanks his amazing ability to solve
problems they could find different kinds of energy. For example when the coal is
not supplied power demand, humans found the oil and replaced it as an energy
source. Thanks, the man has been solving his problems; he has been improving all
the difficulties that the nature put on his way.
