　　If you are hungry, what do you do? Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that?　　1　　 But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your friends or favorite stars．So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow．When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity gets a full stop．This might be the reason why we all sometimes think "What happens next?", "Why can't I think?"

　　This is nothing but creativity．　　4　　 Within no time you can start talking with your friends in English or any other language and never run out of the right words．

　　As I walked across the campus of Pittsburgh' s Carnegie Mellon University, I came upon a table filled with young people chatting and enjoying the fine weather．　　1　　 Trilogy, an Austin, Texas -based software company, had a reputation for recruiting(招聘)our top students．I walked over to the table．"Are you guys here to recruit?" I asked．"No," they replied firmly．"We're not recruiters．We're just hanging out with friends．" How interesting, I thought．They've come to campus on a workday, all the way from Austin, just to hang out with friends．

　　I noticed one member of the group sitting on the grass, having multicolored hair, full-body tattoos(纹身), and multiple holes in his ears．　　2　　 But as 1 would later learn, he was a gifted student who had inked the highest - paying deal in the history of their departments．What a change from my own college days, when students would put on their dressy clothes and carefully hide any counterculture tendencies to prove that they could fit in with the company．　　3　　 In fact, the guy I met on the campus just signed on with Trilogy, right at that table on the grass, with the recruiters who do not "recruit．"

　　　　4　　 I once asked one young man why he was going to a smaller city in Texas．The company is excellent, he told me．There are also terrific people and the work is challenging．Though he had several good job offers from Pittsburgh' s high - tech firms and knew the city well, he said he felt the city lacked the lifestyle options, cultural diversity, and tolerant attitude that would make it attractive to him．

　　　　5　　 He is a member of what I call the creative class：a fast - growing, highly educated, and well - paid part of the workforce．They do not consciously think of themselves as a class．Yet they share a common attitude that values creativity, individuality, difference, and advantage．

A．An obvious lazy guy avoiding work, I thought．

B．As the summed it up, “How would I fit in here?”

C．Some of them are the top students in the university．

D．Today, apparently, it’s the company trying to fit in with the students．

E．While I was interested in the change, something even bigger struck me．

F．Several had identical blue T – shirts with “Trilogy @ CMU” written across them．

G．This young man represents a lively new force in the economy and life of America．
