3、ings a degree in psychology and a question. It was the same one that many in my generation got:： What do I do now? It was as difficult as it was common .Thats because many people at my age were raised with the same words, repeated over and over by parents, teachers and TV, that you “can be whatever

4、you want to be” As a young boy, every time when I was puzzled about my future, they would say that they would be happy if I was happy. However, what I needed was concrete advice but not a vague idea, for example, be a doctor, or be a bus driver.My experience was by no means universal. Many Americans

5、 are taught by their parents that the only purpose in life is to attain money and power. As a goal, this seems much easier and clearer than finding happiness or gentleness. The result of this upbringing is that many of my classmates did not specialize in any particular skill, rather assuming that so

6、mething would magically happen to overcome their problems. They often get a real shock when they enter the“real world” and find that their options are very limited. Many of my friends have taken jobs as waiters or cooks after graduating, or have moved back in with their parents.My life on the boat i

7、s hard at times, especially during storms. But this is my small attempt to be happy on my own.

10、ef in limitless possibilities.DWhen a mathematics student was examined in the hospital, Dr. John Lorber discovered that he had almost no brain at all. Normally, the condition is quite severe in the first months of childhood. Even when someone survives he or she is usually seriously disabled. Somehow

11、，though, the student had lived a perfectly normal life and went on to gain a degree in mathematics. This case is by no means as rare as it seems.Professor Lorber has identified(確認) several hundred people who have very small brains but who appear to be normal intelligent people. Some of them he descr

12、ibes as having no detectable brain, yet they have scored up to 120 on IQ tests.No one knows how people with no detectable brain are able to function at all, let alone graduate in mathematics. One suggestion is the old idea that we only use a small percentage of our brains anyway perhaps as little as

13、 10 per cent. But more recent research shows this idea is a misunderstanding dating from research in the 1930s in which the functions of large areas of the brain could not be determined and were named silent, while in fact they are linked withimportant functions like speech and abstract thinking.The

14、 other interesting thing about lorbers findings is that they remind us of the secret of memory. At first it was thought that there is a part in the brain for memory, like the memory chips in a PC. But further research of the brain has turned up the surprising fact that memory does not depend on any

15、particular area in the brain. As one scientist put it ，“Memory is everywhere in the brain and nowhere.”But if the brain is not a place for classifying and storing experiences and analyzing them to enable us to live our lives,then what on earth is the brain for? And where is the seat of htthen what o

But the computer wasnt giving them the right results. 39 They finally ended up taking the computer apart，looking for problems. What did the

20、y find? It was a dead moth(飛蛾)! The moth was blocking some of the holes on the paper no wonder the computer didnt know what to do.Hopper knew that the term bug had been used before when there were problems with machines. But this was the first time a computer had ever had a bug. 40 Some people think
