At 13 years old, Keith Peiris is the world's youngest CEO(Chief Executive Officer). But he says that there is nothing different about him compared to other children his age.
Keith launched(开办)a website for his own company at the age of 10. While other children were receiving awards for their achievements, Peiris was giving scholarships from Cyberteks Design, his own company, to pupils at his school.
Though he's just a teenager, he is already experiencing the pains of adult life.
Peiris is about 1.5 metres tall with big brown eyes and curly (卷曲的)jet-black hair. "His big eyes show his intelligence. They show his wisdom," said Christine St Pierre, a journalist from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
When he was asked for an exclusive (独家的)interview, Peiris looked at his watch and said, "20 minutes, 30 minutes at most, OK?"
He has the air of a real businessman who treasures every minute of his time.
Cyberteks Design mainly serves North America. But since Peiris visited China, he said he would try to find a way to cater for(迎合) China's Shanghai market as well.
"China is growing and in the next 10 to 20 years it will be among the top countries for business. Now China's become a member of the WTO, Shanghai will have more business opportunities ," said the young businessman.
"At the moment it is hard to compete with local companies in Shanghai because of the cost, especially of hardware."
"At first, my age will be the largest issue, but in the end that won't be important," he added, "Once I get more and more clients(客户),we will build a reputation(信誉) and people will take me more seriously."
Peiris answers questions quickly and is very articulate (表达能力强的)for his age. He said he had come to know Shanghai pretty well through TV programmes shown on CNN before his trip.
He added, "When I was about five, my father gave me my own computer and started teaching me a few things about how to use it. I have not seen any parents do that for their children."
Keith Peiris is now ______.
A.a student
B.CEO of a company
C.doing business in Shanghai
D.both A and B

Memory is said to be stored in the brain as a "memory trace (记忆痕) ". What makes up this trace is not known. Some scientists believe that certain chemical substances may carry certain memories. For example, one substance, when given to rats, causes them to fear the dark.
Other research into memory has to do with how the brain works. Psychologists use three means to find out bow a person remembers. For example, give a person a grocery list. Let the person memorize the list, then put it away. The most natural way to find out how much a person remembers of the grocery list is to ask what he or she remembers. This is called the method of recall. Another method is called recognition. Give the person another grocery list. Ask him or her to choose items on the first list from the items that are on only the second list. Often a person will be able to recognize things that he or she cannot recall. A third method of finding how much a person remembers is called relearning. Here the person is asked to read over the first list. The person will probably learn the list the second time faster than he did the first time. The difference in the time it takes to relearn the list is thought of as measure of how much a person has remembered.
One way of remembering something is to repeat it many times. Interest is very important. Boring lists of facts are much more difficult to remember than something that we understand and are interested in. Motivation, or wanting to do something, is also important. Motivation is linked with reward. For example, a hungry animal quickly learns how to do something if that action gets the animal food. In humans, wanting to learn is often motivation. The praise of a teacher or the knowledge that an answer is correct is rewarding.
We can learn from the 2nd paragraph that ______.
A.bad memories may cause rats to fear the dark
B.it is hard to tell what a memory trace consists of
C.chemical substances carry certain memories
D.memory is stored in the brain as a substance
