    Once when I was six years old I saw an amazing picture in a book called True Stories from Nature about the forest． It was a picture of a snake in the act of swallowing an animal． In the book it said： "Snakes swallow the whole animal without chewing（嚼）it． After that they are not able to move and they sleep through the six months that they need for digestion（消化）．"

I thought deeply then over the adventures of the forest． And after some work with a colored pencil I succeeded in making my first drawing． My Drawing Number One． I showed my work to the grown-ups and asked them whether the drawing frightened them． But they answered： "Frighten？ Why should anyone be frightened by a hat？"

My drawing was not a picture of a hat． It was a picture of a snake digesting an elephant． But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it， I made another drawing． I drew the inside of the snake so that the grown-ups could see it clearly． They always need to have things explained． That's my Drawing Number Two．

The grown-ups' answer this time was to advise me to lay aside my drawings of snakes whether from the inside or the outside and devote myself instead to geography， history， maths and grammar． That is why at the age of six I gave up what might have been a great painter． I had been discouraged by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two． Grown-ups never understand simple things by themselves and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them．

So then I chose another profession（职业）and learned to pilot airplanes． I have flown a little over all parts of the world； and it is true that geography has been very good for me． I can tell China from Arizona easily． If one gets lost in the night， such knowledge is valuable．

In my life I have had lots of chances to meet with a great many people． And that hasn't much improved my opinion of them． Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all clear-sighted， I tried showing him my Drawing Number One which 1have always kept． I would try to find out if this was a person of true understanding． But whoever it was， he or she would always say： That is a hat． Then I would never talk to that person about snakes or forests or stars． I would bring myself down to his level． I would talk to him about golf and politics and neckties． And the grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such a wise man． For him I am a normal man．
