We all know stories about people with exceptional memories who have the ability to remember hundreds of numbers after hearing them only once .Now experts are saying that such feats can be taught.
For example, most people can repeat about nine numbers if they are read out one a second. In one experiment, ten hours' training produced only a small improvement, but the results after practising for a thousand hours were amazing: some people remembered 80 ar even 100 numbers. Similarly, most adults can identify only about five out of a set of 21 colours that are only slightly different. But after 80 training hours one person could recognise 18 of them. Studies of 76 major composers show that it took at least ten years of musical training before any of them wrote a major work. Psychologists are therefore raising the possibility that genius is the product of teaching
