　　Being intelligent and creative，they soon discovered easier ways of traveling.They rode on thebacks of their domesticated animals;they hoHowed out tree trunks and，by using bits of wood aspaddles.were able to travel across water.

　　Later they traveled，not from necessity，but for the joy and excitement of seeing and experiencingnew things.This is still the main reason why we travel today.

　　Traveling，of course，has now become a highly organized business.There are cars and splendid roads，express trains，huge ships and jet airliners，all of which provide us with comforts and security.·r11lis sounds wonderfm.But there are difficulties.If you want to go abroad，you need a passport and avisa，ticket，luggage，and a hundred of other things.If you lose any of them，your journey maybe mined.

　　It is customary for adults to forget how hard and dull and long school is.The learning by memoryof all the basic things one must know is a most incredible and unending effort.Learning to read isprobably the most difficult and revolutionary thing that happens to the human brain and if you don’tbelieve that，watch an illiterate adult try to do it.School is not easy and it is not for the most partvery much fun，but then，if you are very lucky，you may find a real teacher.Three real teachers ina lifetime is the very best of my luck.My first was a science and math teacher in high school，mysecond，a professor of creative writing at Stanford，and my third was my friend and partner，EdRicketts.

　　My three had these things in common：They all loved what they were doing.They did not tell;they catalyzed a burning desire to know.Under their influence，the horizons sprung wide and fearwent away and the unknown became knowable.But most important of all，the truth，that dangerousstuff，became beautiful and very precious.

　　I shall speak only of my first teacher because in addition to the other things，she：brought discovery.She aroused us to shoutin9，book—waving discussions.She had the noisiest class in school andshe didn’t even seem to know it.We could.never stick to the subject.Our speculation ranged theworld.She breathed curiosity into us so that we brought in facts or truths shielded in our hands likecaptured fireflies.

　　What is not so widely known is that this special relationship often acts as brake on twins’intellectual development.As they are partly isolated in their own private world，twins communicate lesswith adults than do other children.The verbal ability of a four—year—old twin is typically six monthsbehind that of a non-twin.The problem can be particularly severe in an underprivileged family，aone-parent family for example，where there is little stimulation for children anyway.

　　Such children，while capable of mutual comprehension in a private language，often remainincomprehensible to outsiders and thus at a severe educational disadvantage.The only solution tothe problem，cruel though it may seem，is to separate the twins thus forcing them to acquire ordinaryspeech helped and guided by sympathetic parents and teachers.
