1 All the world extended best wishes to Master Kenneth Brown of Philadelphia, who at the age of eight heard his Israeli Rhapsody played by the Philadelphia Orchestra and praised by musicians and critics. He has an excellent chance to become a successful and perhaps famous adult.

全世界的人给费城的Kenneth Brown大师送去最好的祝福，在他八岁的时候因为他的以色列狂想曲被众所周知，这个交响曲是被费城的交响乐团演奏的，受到了音乐家和评论家的称赞。他有一个极好的机会成为一个成功的也许是著名的成年人。

2 Through the ages child prodigies have been regarded by the “old wives” of tradition as unnaturally or diabolically gifted, apt to burn out young and land on the junk pile. The figures do not bear this out. Most exceptionally bright children grow into exceptionally bright adult.

古往今来的神童已经被传统的“老妇人”视为不自然的或恶魔般的天才，往往生出来有潜力的孩子生长在垃圾堆里。这些数字不足以证明这一点。也有很多特别聪明的孩子长成特别聪明的成年人。

3 For nearly forty years the Milwaukee Journal library has kept a “Child Prodigies” file. More than a hundred names are listed ---- boys and girls who broke into the news at ages three to twelve as poets, musicians, mathematics wizards, university students. More than 90 per cent of these names are forgotten by the world. Some of the cards, however, carry familiar names: Yehudi Menuhin, eight; Ruth Slenczynaska, six; Philippa Schuyler, three. They are now grown up, from their twenties into their forties and all have become noted musicians.

密尔沃基期刊库保持了“神童”的文件近四十年了。超过一百个名字被列出来了——名单里的上了新闻的男孩和女孩在3到12岁成为了诗人，音乐家，数学奇才，大学生。超过90%多的名字被世人遗忘。然而，一些名字众所周知：8岁的耶胡迪·梅纽因；6岁的露丝；3岁的菲利普。他们现在都长大了，从二十几岁到四十几岁，全部成为了著名的音乐家。

4 In a study of three hundred men and women of genius, Dr. Catherine M. Cox and her colleagues at Stanford University found that almost all of them had been unusually perceptive children, even though this fact had not always been recognized.The beloved author Oliver Goldsmith, for example, was pronounced b y his earliest teachers to be “dull, stupid, a heavy blockhead，little better than a fool whom everybody made fun of.” Actually, the teachers were too obtuse to understand the overly sensitive child; at home he was writing with surprising skill and astonishing his family.

在一个关于300多个天才男人和女人的研究中，Catherine M. Cox博士和她的斯坦福大学的同事发现：几乎所有的人都是非常有洞察力的孩子，尽管这一事实并不总是被认可。例如被人们爱戴的作家奥利弗·哥德史密斯，被他最早期的老师称为做“无聊、愚蠢的一个大笨蛋，仅仅比每个人都取笑的小傻瓜好一点”。事实上，这些老师过于迟钝去理解这些过于敏感的孩子；在家里他的超人的写作技巧震惊了他的家人。
