Chapter 14 Section 1 The non-human life of two wolf children?
Man is a product of society. ? ?

A pastor who was preaching in Africa found two girls living with wolves in the deep mountains and old forests in the jungle. The older one was seven or eight years old, and the younger one was about two years old.The pastor rescued them and sent them to an orphanage to be raised. The older girl was named Rama, and the little girl was named Lina.Lina died the following year after being admitted to the hospital.Rama survived, but showed strange life habits: she is used to walking on all fours, resting on her hands and knees; she is afraid of strong light, and likes to sleep curled up in a dark place during the day, sleeping on her waist and hips; sneaking at night , sharp night vision, screaming at midnight, wandering around, trying to find a way out, and fled back to the jungle; she sniffed around with her nose, looking for food, with a particularly sensitive sense of smell, she doesn't eat vegetarian food, she likes to eat raw meat, she doesn't eat what's in people's hands, she only eats thrown away The flesh on the floor, licking the liquid; she is afraid of fire and water, never allowed to take a bath, even if the weather is cold, she will tear off the clothes put on her, and throw away the blanket covered her. ?
In order to reform Rama's animal behavior, the pastor gave her careful care and patient education.But she made very slow progress. It took two years to learn to stand, and it took six years to learn to walk independently, but she still used all fours when running fast.Rama's mental development is particularly slow. At the age of eight, she only had the intelligence level of a six-month-old baby; four years later, she learned 6 words; seven years later, she learned 45 words, and she was able to eat with her hands and drink from a cup . When Rama died at the age of 17, her intelligence level was only equivalent to that of a normal three- and four-year-old child. ?
Mind walk?

A professor of psychology at Cambridge University mentioned the story of this wolf boy when he talked about human sociality in his class.It shows that human psychology is not inherent in the mind, but the product of human practice.Once a person is divorced from society and the normal life of human beings, even if he has a normal human brain, he will not be able to form and develop normal human psychology. ?
