Child's Wordplay - Proof that you are a Natural Verbal Genius
Suzuki was a Japanese teacher, musician and instrument maker. He had two special paradigm-shifts in his awareness that changed his life forever, and which are at this very moment changing the lives of millions and the way the world thinks about all the babies and their Verbal and Creative Intelligences.
Suzuki's first revelation came when he was visiting a giant incubator for Japanese larks.
The Japanese breeders of these songbirds take literally thousands of eggs and incubate them in giant, warm, silent halls that act as a gigantic nest. Silent, that is, with the exception of one sound - that of a lark Master Singer, a veritable song-bird Beethoven!
Suzuki noticed to his amazement that every little chick that hatched, automatically began to copy the master singer. After a few days he observed that each chick having started out purely copying songs, began to develop its own variations on the original Master Song. The breeders waited until the chick musicians had developed their own styles, and then selected from them the next Master Singer, and so the process developed.
'Astounding' thought Suzuki. 'If a bird's tiny, tiny brain can learn so perfectly, then surely the human brain , with its vastly superior abilities, should be able to do the same and better!
This line of reasoning led Suzuki to his next revelation, which, when he announced it, made many of his friends think that he had lost a large number of his own brain cells.
Suzuki, in a delirium of enthusiasm for what he had realized rushed around telling everyone he knew of his remarkable discovery.: that every Japanese child learns to speak Japanese!
His friends and colleagues patted him on the shoulder, informing him rather firmly they were actually already aware of that. 'But No! No!' declared Suzuki, ' they really do, and it's amazing!'
Suzuki was correct. Like Newton before him, he had discovered something that was so obvious no one could see it - that any baby, born in any country, automatically learns, withing two years, the language of that country.
This means that every normal baby's brain is capable of learning millions of potential languages.

嗯，没错，其实人有无限的可能，每个小孩都是上天赐给人类的一份礼物。就算有缺陷，我们也不能低估这孩子的能力，因为也许他有着其他的发挥空间可以去栽培的也不一定哦！
