When he was 16, his father seriously said to him, “I'll give you whatever you want before you are 18. But after that, I won't care much about you, and you should give me whatever I want.” When his 18th birthday was coming, the young man began thinking about looking for a job. So he sent resumes(简历) to many companies he liked on the Internet. But, most got no reply, he said, “Maybe they were surprised about my primary school education.”
By chance, one of his friends was looking for someone, who could work as an egg porter(搬运工) in the supermarket, for 0.5 Yuan a box. Facing lots of difficulties in getting a job, he said, “I'll take this job.

One afternoon,a teacher was having a math class. However,some boys made a lot of noise in class. The teacher got angry. He kept them in the classroom after school. He told them to add(加)all the numbers from 1 to 100 together. 

The boys took out their exercise books. All of them began to write the numbers down except one boy. He was seven years old and new in the school. He looked out of the window for a few minutes. Then he wrote a number in his exercise book and put up his hand. 

"May I go home sir?"he asked. "I know the answer now. "

The teacher and the other boys were very surprised. 

"Bring it here. "said the teacher. 

The next morning the teacher asked the boy. "How did you find the answer so quickly?"

"Well sir,"he said,"I did not want to stay here so long. So I did my best to find the answer quickly. Soon I found it. You see,if you add 100 to 1,you get 101,and 99 and 2 is 101,and 98 and 3 is 101 too,and when you reach 51 and 50,you have 101 fifty times. That is 5050. "

After this when the teacher gave the class exercises to do,he gave this boy different exercises. 

The boy's name was Carl F. Gauss. When he grew up,he became a great scientist. Gauss's achievements(成就)filled many pages in science encyclopedias(百科全书). And he was as famous as Archimedes and Newton. And he was one of the three greatest mathematicians(数学家)of all time in the world.
