The most difficult thing for university student Shaun Rogers is opening his classroom door.Shaun can't do this without help because he's only six years old.He's the youngest person ever to study at Rochester University in New York.Shaun began reading at two , by the age of five he was regularly corresponding (通信) with university professors and will shortly complete his first book.‘I love learning , ’says Shaun.‘My hero is the scientist Albert Einstein because he never combed his hair or wore socks.’
Psychologists (心理学家) have found it difficult to test Shaun's intelligence (智力) because it goes beyond what they usually measure.Shaun's mother first realized her son was different when he kept crying at playschool because he was bored with the children's games.She started teaching him at home after finding that local schools were not prepared for children who learnt at Shaun's speed.Now Shaun is studying geography at Rochester University and using the Internet to complete his high school studies.
However , some psychologists warn that too much study can prevent a child from developing normally.‘I don't care how brilliant the kid is , six?year?olds have to play with their friends,’ says Dr Brian Wood.Mrs Rogers disagrees that her son's time is completely taken up by school work.‘He loves the violin and has many outdoor interests , such as camping , fishing and swimming , just like other boys of his age.’
