Artists are sometimes able to capture this quicksilver, short emotional response. I have a friend, Robert Grossman, an accomplished artist who draws regularly for Forbes, Newsweek, Sports Illustrated, Rolling Stone, and other popular publications. Bob has a unique gift for capturing not only the physical appearanceof his subjects, but zeroing in on the essenceof their personalities. The bodies and souls of hundreds of figures radiate from his sketch pad(素描侧) . One glance at his pictures of famous people, you can see,for instance, the insecure of arrogance of Madonna, the boyishnessof Clinton, the awkwardness of GeorgeBush.
Sometimes at a party, Robert will do a quick sketch on a cocktail napkin of a guest. When he ’s finished drawing, he puts his pen down and hands a napkin to the guest. Often a puzzled look comes over the subject ’s face. He or she usually mumbles some politeness like, “ Well, er, that ’s great. But it really isn ’t me. ”The crowd ’s convincing echo of “ Ohyes it is! ” drowns down the subject, who is left to stare back at the world ’s view of himself or herself in the napkin. Once I askedRobert how he could capture people ’s personalities so well. He said, “ It ’s simple. I just look at them. ” Almost every fact of people ’s personalities is evident from their appearance, their posture, the way they move.
First impressions are indelible. Because in our fast-paced information-overload world, multiple stimuli bombard us every second, people ’s heads are spinning. They must form. quick judgments to make senseof the world and get on with what they have to do. Whenever people meet you, they take an instant mental snapshot.That image of you becomesthe datathey deal with for a long time.

, much less one as severe as hers. To them a disability was physical, something you could see. They knew her as a happy, normal child. That's how it is with a learning disability -you don't see obvious physical symptoms.
But as she grew out of preschool, she would pretend to read-I knew she was pretending because the book was upside down. She withdrew into her own world where she could fantasize about being a ballet dancer, a Broadway actress or a figure skater. In the real world, ballet classes and music lessons led only to confusion, frustration and, ultimately, disappointment.
As for school, there was no way she could be included in a mainstream classroom. I went through every special school in New York, only to be told over and over: "She doesn't belong here." The last blow came a few months after the diagnosis, when I was at a pay phone on 72nd Street, waiting for an answer from the very last school on my list. Finally a cold voice came on-I can still hear it-and said: "I'm sorry, but we feel this isn't the place for her." I hung up and stared at the phone in tears.
I had lived my life as the daughter of Henry Ford II, and for the first time in my life I faced a problem that neither money nor position could solve. I nearly gave up, but I knew I couldn't. Without me, my daughter stood no chance of making it.

The Princess Disease
Have you ever heard of the princess disease? It is a terrible disease. __26__ It wastes away at one’s social life and people’s tolerance. People with this disease think they are better than everyone else, without a real reason.
Jin is a girl who suffers from this disease. __27__ She thinks she is better looking than her friends and most people she has met. It is, as far as she is concerned, a well-known fact that she dresses better, sings better, and dances better than most people in her school, too.
So is Jin justified in believing that she is better than everyone else? __28__ Of course, she thinks this is because the singing coach hates her, since the coach has bad skin and is jealous of her. She is good at sports, but she isn’t the strongest, fastest, or even the best at any of their school’s events. __29__ She, again thinks it was because of the "haters".
