• 1、Samuel Osmond is a 19-year-old law student from Cornwall, England. He has1 studied the piano. However, he can play very difficult musical pieces by2 such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them. He learns a piece of music by3 it in parts. Then he thinks about the notes in his head. Two years ago, he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata (奏鸣曲) by Beethoven. He4 everyone around him.

    Samuel can't understand why everyone is so surprised. "I grew up with music. My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar. So it is5 for me. I hear the notes and can keep them in mind—each and every note," says Samuel.

    Samuel is now learning a piece of music. It has more than a thousand notes. It is so6 that many professional pianists can't play it. But Samuel says7, "It's all about super memory—I guess I have that gift (天赋)."

    However, Samuel's gift to8 things doesn't stop with music. His family says that even when he was a young boy, Samuel heard someone read a story, and then he could retell the9 word for word.

    Samuel is still young. He doesn't know what he wants to do in the future. For now, he is just10 to play beautiful music and continue his studies.
