Steven Spielberg was not　 a scholar, and his classmates teased him. Rather than read,　 the kid really preferred running around with an 8mm camera, shooting home­made movies, which he showed to friends for a small fee.

In his first year of high school, he dropped out. But　 when his parents persuaded him to return, he was mistakenly placed in a learning­disabled class, which lasted one　 month. Only when the family moved to another town did he　 land up in a more suitable high school, where he eventually　 graduated.

After being denied entrance into a traditional film­making school, Steven Spielherg enrolled in English at California State University at Long Beach. Then in 1965, he　 recalls, in one of those serendipitous moments, his life　 took a complete turn. Visiting Universal Studios, he met　 Chuck Silvers, an executive in the editorial department. Silvers liked the kid who made 8mm films and invited him　 back sometime to visit.

He appeared the next day. Spielberg, dressed in a dark　 suit, carrying his father's briefcase with nothing inside but　 a sandwich and candy bars walked confidently up to the　 guard at the gate of Universal and gave him a casual wave.　 The guard waved back. He was in.

“For the entire summer，” Spielberg remembers, “I　 dressed in my suit and hung out with the directors and　 writers, including Silvers, who knew the kid wasn't a studio employee, but winked at him. I even found an office　 that wasn't being used, and became a squatter (擅自占用他人房子的人). I bought some plastic tiles and put my　 name　 in　 the　 building　 directory:　 Steven　 Spielberg,　 Room 23C.”

It paid off for everyone. Ten years later, the 28­year­old Spielberg directed Jaws, which took in $470 million,　　 then the biggest grossing movie of all time. Dozens of films　　 and awards have followed because Steven Spielberg knew　　 what his teachers didn't—talent is in the eyes of the filmmaker.

1.Why was Steven Spielberg laughed at by his classmates?

A．He was the youngest boy.

B．He was too short for his age.

2.Why did Steven's friends pay him some money?

A．To see his movies.

B．To use his camera.

C．To look at his photos.

D．To include them in the movie.

3.What did Steven Spielberg intend to do after graduating　　　 from high school?

A．Study English at a college.

B．Become a newspaper editor.

C．Work for Universal Studios.

D．Go to a traditional film­making school.

4.What could have changed Steven Spielberg's life?

A．Being dressed in a suit.

B．Meeting Chuck Silvers.
