Have you ever heard of prodigies. The following are just three of them whom the world has known so far.
SARAH CHANG is described by other musicians as “the most wonderful, perfect violinist ( 小提琴手)” they’ve ever heard. What makes this praise especially surprising is Sarah’s age: She’s only a teenager, and people have been describing her this way for years. On Sarah’s fourth birthday, her father gave her a violin. By age 5, she was accepted at the famous Juilliard School of Music, in New York City. By 8, she was performing as a violin
soloist (独奏者) with major orchestras. Since then, Sarah has performed around the world. She has also recorded
many albums.
Before MICHAEL KEARNEY was born, the doctors warned his parents that he might have learning difficulties. He’s been proving them wrong ever since! By the time he was 4 months old, Michael could say full sentences like, “What’s for dinner, Mom ” By 10 months, he could read words. Studying at home with his parents, Michael completed four grade levels each year. At 5, he entered high school-and finished in one year. By
10, he graduated from college with honors. At 11, he went to graduate school.
When ALEXANDRA NECHITA was 2, her parents gave her some crayons (彩色铅笔) and coloring books. Alexandra was soon working in inks, watercolors, and by the time she was 7, oil paints. At 8, Alexandra had her first art exhibition. Her paintings are often compared to those of Picasso and other great artists. They have sold for
as much as $80,000. She has been on TV, and a book of her paintings was published.

Your True Stories
Every week we invite our readers to send us their short stories and then we publish all our favorites!
Here are the best from last week’s theme(主题): Small changes and big improvements.
1. A Real DollI’ve worked at an amusement park and when another Barbara joined the team, I changed my name tag from “Barb” to “Barbie”. I changed it at my other job, too, and began answering the phone, “This is Barbie. How can I help you ” Ninety percent of callers now respond with my name, “Barbie, can you tell me …” Pronouncing that long “e” sound makes your mouth into a smile. But I’ve found the smile is usually returned
willingly. —Barbie, Pennsylvania
2. Happy Wife, Happy LifeEarly in our marriage, my husband would come home exhausted(筋 疲力尽) from work and I’dbe exhausted from kids. We were both tired and we often ended up arguing. The day I realized it, I asked myself, “Am I the person I would want to come home to ” I began greeting him with a smile instead of complaining about my day. He’d smile back and we’d talk calmly. We still have our differences, but one small change in attitude has saved our marriage forever. —Phyllis, Pennsylvania 3. Creating A Paperless Trail(痕迹)My habit of collecting and storing things resulted in countless envelopes filled with tickets, wedding invitations, holiday and birthday cards, etc. I placed all the contents on a scanner( 扫描仪) and laid decorative paper over them for a background, then uploaded the scans to a folder(文件夹) named “Paula’s Scrapbook”. It felt great to clear so many extra papers and create a beautiful craft project of memories to share on my computer. —Paula, Arizona
