III. Contextual

Answer: B
A person who is good at picking out what information is crucial and at combining seemingly unrelated facts is high on the experiential part of Sternberg's triarchic theory (II only). The experiential subtheory covers insight, selective encoding, selective combination and dealing with novelty.
Componential intelligence is analytical thinking, such as reasoning and solving problems, and contextual intelligence is practical adaptation to the environment, so options that include I or III are wrong.
