A three-year old girl with an IQ above 160 has just become the youngest person in Arizona to be accepted into Mensa.
一個智商超過160的3歲女孩剛剛成為門薩俱樂部在亞利桑那州最小的會員。
In fact, doctor's said young Alexis Martin did so well on intelligence tests they couldn't even calculate her IQ score exactly.
醫生說小Alexis Martin 在智商測試中表現優異，事實上他們并不能測出她的準確智商。
Mensa is an international club which only accepts members who have an IQ score in the top two per cent world wide.
門薩是一個只接受智商排全世界前百分之二的人為會員的國際俱樂部。
The average person scores an IQ of approximately 100.
普通人的智商約為100。
But when Martin scored 160, the highest possible rating on the test, she matched the IQs of geniuses like Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking, and BIll Gates, who are also thought to be in a similar range.
但Martin得到了智商測試中的最高分160，她的智商和阿爾伯特·愛因斯坦、史蒂芬·霍金以及比爾·蓋茨等天才相近，他們的智商測試結果與此相似。
Martin's parents said their little girl had given them signs she might be gifted for a long time.
Martin的父母說，很長時間以來他們的小女兒都在給他們一些信號，仿佛在告訴他們自己是個天才。
'From 12-18 months old, we'd be driving around in the car and she would recite her bedtime story from the night before,' her father, Ian, told ABC 15.
“她12到18個月大我們開車兜風的時候，她就能準確地背誦出前一天晚上我們給她講的晚安故事。” 她的爸爸伊恩告訴亞利桑那州新聞網站ABC15的記者。
'She didn’t just recite them, she recited them exactly.'
“她不僅僅是背誦出來了，她背得簡直一字不差。”
She's currently consuming books at a 5th grade reading level and even taught herself Spanish on the family's iPad.
她目前正在讀小學五年級水平的讀物，甚至使用家里的iPad自學西班牙語。
'Anytime she learns a word and just picks it up through anything, she never ever uses it in the incorrect context, ever,' said Ian.
“每次她學到一個新詞都信手拈來，從未使用出錯。” 伊恩說道。
And while her parents are grateful for her intellectual prowess, they are worried about what unique challenges it might give to raising Alexis.
盡管她的父母對她的天賦心懷感恩，他們還是有點擔心在撫養Alexis 長大過程中需要面臨的挑戰。
One of the doctors who tested her said Alexis could never go to a normal school and that children with her level of intelligence often suffer from high anxiety unless they're around similarly gifted boys and girls.
一位給Alexis做智商測試的醫生說，她不能去普通學校上學，因為像她這樣的高智商孩子，如果不和同樣高智商的孩子在一起就會感到焦慮。
'Does she go into kindergarten early? We are kind of hesitant because we do want her to get that social aspect,' Ian said.
“她上幼兒園早了嗎？我們有點猶豫，因為我們確實想讓她正常社交。”
