释放你的创造力 比尔盖茨 Ive been an optimist and I supposed that is rooted in my belief that the power of creativity and intelligence can make the world a better place. For as long as I can remember, Ive loved learning new things and solving problems. So when I sat down at a computer for the first time in seventh grade, I was hooked.
