摘　　要：尼泊尔有一位叫作雷格米的11岁女孩在去年突然拥有了一项＂特异功能＂,她能够凭借嗅觉辨别物体的颜色。不仅如此,她还能在蒙眼的情况下,凭借手指触摸的方式读出纸上的文字。雷格米的特异功能似乎与＂联觉＂（synaesthesia）有关。根据波士顿大学先前的研究显示,世界上每5000人中就有1人受到联觉影响,且大多数是女性。An eleven-year-old girl, named Deepti Regmi, is from Nepal. She has the unusual ability to smell colors. She can even smell colors while blindfolded. She believes that her strange talent comes from God. It was reported that Deepti Regmi developed her unusual ability last year. And since then she has been training her brain to improve her sense of smell.Puskar Nepal tested Regmi＇s unusual ability. He said, ＂I checked the blindfold to make sure that she couldn’ tsee through it. I was really very surprised that she could smell the colors and feel the fonts with her finger easily. To my surprise, despite her young age she feels the responsi-bility towards the society. And she wants to help visuallydamaged people with her skills. ＂
