Answer to Question 1

Gardner's theory is often misinterpreted to mean that a person who excels in one of the intelligences will be equally gifted on all tasks related to that domain. This is not true. People experience different levels of ability across tasks within a domain. Britney may be able to appreciate and properly identify the musical pieces that she hears but have little or no aptitude for playing an instrument.

Answer to Question 2

A
