Lift your Abstract Reasoning up Above-Average: Charlene and Igor

Ontem Paris, l'art c'est tout!

*Designed for individuals with IQ above 109 (above-average abstract reasoning)* 

Watch the video and try to find the answer. In the video, Charlene and Igor will carry out a conversation using words and images. Images now represent layered metaphors or indirect associations. “?” denotes a question. What are Charlene and Igor talking about? You will be given three answer options, only one of which is the right option.

**Charlene:** (seedling) (hourglass) (storm cloud)? 

**Igor:** (bridge) (book) (mirror). 

**Charlene:** (puzzle piece) (fire) (arrow). 

**Igor:** (mountain peak) (compass) (chain). 

**Charlene:** (keyhole) (wave) (moon)? 

**Igor:** (spiderweb) (hourglass) (sunburst). 

**Charlene:** (mask) (hourglass) (birdcage). 

**Igor:** (lighthouse) (hourglass) (open door). 

**What are they discussing?** 

A) Overcoming a personal fear 

B) Navigating a moral dilemma 

C) Rebuilding trust in a relationship 

**Correct Answer: B) Navigating a moral dilemma** 

**Explanation of Key Image Associations (for deeper analysis):** 

– **Seedling + Hourglass + Storm Cloud?** = “Is time running out to nurture a fragile idea (seedling) amid conflict?” 

– **Bridge + Book + Mirror** = “Connecting perspectives (bridge), ethics (book), and self-reflection (mirror).” 

– **Puzzle Piece + Fire + Arrow** = “A missing element (puzzle), urgency (fire), and direction (arrow).” 

– **Mountain Peak + Compass + Chain** = “A high-stakes goal (peak), uncertainty (compass), and constraints (chain).” 

– **Keyhole + Wave + Moon?** = “Seeking clarity (keyhole) in turbulent emotions (wave) and hidden truths (moon).” 

– **Spiderweb + Hourglass + Sunburst** = “Complex consequences (web), time pressure (hourglass), and resolution (sunburst).” 

– **Mask + Hourglass + Birdcage** = “Hiding intentions (mask), urgency (hourglass), and feeling trapped (birdcage).” 

– **Lighthouse + Hourglass + Open Door** = “Guidance (lighthouse), urgency (hourglass), and a risky choice (open door).” 

**Why Other Answers Fail:** 

– **A) Fear** lacks the recurring ethical/conflict metaphors (book, mirror, chain). 

– **C) Trust** is too narrow; the dialogue emphasizes *choices* over interpersonal dynamics.
