Zhang Ge, a 24-year-old resident of Nanjing, Jiangsu province, suffers from autism, but that has not stopped her from finding work as a librarian at a community library.

Zhang can remember the telephone numbers of an unbelievable number of people and has memorized almost all the words in the Chinese-language Xinhua Dictionary. If someone asks her about a word, she can find it in the dictionary within seconds.

Her mother, Xu Xingsu, said she can also say what day a particular date fell on within seconds of being asked.
