【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 s teachers never thought there was a problem with him.” says Alison. It took Alison and her husband a while to realize their son was different. Cameron?s ability didn?t bee clear until he began primary school. Once he even corrected the teacher when she told the class that zero was the lowest number. Cameron told her she was wrong because there were negative numbers (負數(shù) ). He was four at the time. Now 14yearold Cameron is at secondary school, studying for a distance learning math degree with the Open University, having sailed through his GCSE at 11 and his Alevel at 12, achieving top grades. Bethany, another daughter of Alison, is bright too but not gifted. She is the one who will remind absentminded Cameron to put on his coat. She also helps him out in social situations. Emma attends a specialist school and the family is quick to celebrate her successes too. “The other day she did up the buttons on her coat, which was real progress,” Alison says.

The next moment, metal, flesh and bone were spreading against the pavement in a thunderous crash. Another cyclist, biking carelessly, had cut me off and sent me supermanning toward oning traffic. As if to symbolize the accident that had hit my life, another disaster also occurred on April 14th, 2021. It cost the airline industry ＄ billion. Ten million travelers were stuck for days.
