But his academic achievements have not always been 34. by social success. "I have the social ability of a talking potato," he admits. In other words, he feels more at ease with numbers than among other teenagers.
35. is not one of Cameron's strong points and, aside from the problems this causes socially, it is now beginning to 36. his marks in mathematics.

I enjoyed English, biology, and chemistry at school, but which one should I choose to study at university I did not know the answer until one evening when I sat down at computer to do some research on great women of China.

It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career, travelling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles. One of them caught my eye. It was a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies. She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean, healthy and free from sickness. Why did she write that Who were the women that Lin Qiaozhi thought needed this advice I looked carefully at the text and realized that it was intended for women in the countryside. Perhaps if they had an emergency, they could not reach a doctor.
Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to get medical training at that time. That was a generation when girls' education was always placed second to boys. Was she so much cleverer than anyone else Further reading made me realize that it was hard work and determination as well as her gentle nature that got her into medical school. What made her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients. There was story after story of how Lin Qiaozhi, tired after a day's work, went late to deliver a baby for a poor family who could not pay her.
By this time I was very excited. Why not study at a medical college like Lin Qiaozhi and carry on her good work

Teachers first noticed Cameron Thompson's talent for numbers when he was four years old. Throughout primary school, Cameron Thompson's best subject was maths.

Since then, he has continued to 32. quickly. He passed two GCSEs (maths and further maths) at the age of eleven and then got the highest grade in his maths A-level before the end of that same academic year. He is now fourteen years old and studying for a degree in maths, an unbelievable achievement if we bear in mind his 33.
But his academic achievements have not always been 34. by social success. "I have the social ability of a talking potato," he admits. In other words, he feels more at ease with numbers than among other teenagers.
35. is not one of Cameron's strong points and, aside from the problems this causes socially, it is now beginning to 36. his marks in mathematics. This is because, at undergraduate level, he is expected to give reasons for his answers alongside the answers themselves. Cameron's 37. is that he often doesn't know how he has arrived at the answers, even though the answers are usually correct.
Cameron and his family have recently moved house and Cameron is due to start at a new school. He regards it as a chance to make a fresh start and make some friends. The new school specialises in dealing with students who, like Cameron, excel 38. but find it difficult to relate to other students.

"Professor Leader believes Cameron will do better 43. if he stops trying to progress so quickly. And although Cameron does want to finish his current degree, he isn't making any academic plans beyond that. He goes to a weekly karate class after class. And recently, he went to a computer games convention with some friends from karate.
Thanks to the new school, he feels less 44. and unusual than he did before. "There are other people like me—high maths abilities, bad school lives—I am not 45. . "

It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career, travelling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles. One of them caught my eye. It was a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies. She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean, healthy and free from sickness. Why did she write that Who were the women that Lin Qiaozhi thought needed this advice I looked carefully at the text and realized that it was intended for women in the countryside. Perhaps if they had an emergency, they could not reach a doctor.
Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to get medical training at that time. That was a generation when girls' education was always placed second to boys. Was she so much cleverer than anyone else Further reading made me realize that it was hard work and determination as well as her gentle nature that got her into medical school. What made her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients. There was story after story of how Lin Qiaozhi, tired after a day's work, went late to deliver a baby for a poor family who could not pay her.
By this time I was very excited. Why not study at a medical college like Lin Qiaozhi and carry on her good work
