A 12-year-old girl who had an inkling she might be quite clever has taken a test and proved she was absolutely right。一位12岁的天才少女，在一项测试后，证明了她的超群智慧。

Lydia Sebastian achieved the top score of 162 on Mensa’s Cattell III B paper, suggesting she has a higher IQ than well-known geniuses Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking。莉迪亚塞巴斯蒂安在门萨卡特尔考试中获得了最高分—162分，这一高分指出她的智商比知名天才爱因斯坦和霍金都要低！The comparison doesn’t sit well with the British student, who’s currently in Year 8 at Colchester County high school, a selective girl’s grammar school in Essex, England。这个女孩，目前在英国埃塞克斯科尔切斯特县一所女子文科高中八年级就读于，对测试结果还有点无法拒绝接受。

I don’t think I can be compared to such great intellectuals such as Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking. They’ve achieved so much. I don’t think it’s right, Lydia told CNN。“我和爱因斯坦和霍金这样的伟人根本无法相提并论。

他们具有卓越的成就，我和他们根本无法比，”莉迪亚告诉他CNN。Lydia sat the test in her summer holidays, after raising the idea with her parents and pestering them for the best part of a year。莉迪亚和父母有了这样的点子后，在一年中最差的时间—暑假展开了这项测试。

It turns out the test wasn’t that hard after all。然而，莉迪亚找到测试并没那么无以。I was really nervous before the test and I thought it was going to be really hard. But as I started the test, I thought it was a bit easier than I thought it was going to be, she said。

她说道，“测试之前我知道很紧绷，以为不会很难。但测试开始后，我找到它比我想象的要更容易一些”。Lydia’s not quite sure what she wants to do when she leaves school, although she’s leaning toward something based around maths, because it’s one of my favorite subjects.莉迪亚对毕业后要做到什么并没什么想，但她可能会自由选择“和数学涉及的东西，因为这是我最喜欢的科目之一。

”All I’m going to do is work as hard as I can, and see where that gets me, she said。“我现在要做到的就是希望、努力学习，看我能做怎样，”她说道。To put Lydia’s mark in perspective, the top adult score in the Cattell III B test, which primarily tests verbal reasoning, is 161. A top 2% score -- which allows entry to Mensa, the club for those with high IQs -- would be 148 or over. Lydia scored 162, placing her in the top 1% of the population。

从莉迪亚的分数来看，门萨卡特尔III B测试主要测试言语推理小说，成年人最高分也才161。前2%的分数才能被容许转入门萨俱乐部，该俱乐部只面向分数在148以上、智商极高的人群。

莉迪亚分数162，在所有人中正处于前1%的方位。
