　　有视觉的手

　　在苏联，最近报道了几则事例，说是有人能用手指认字和辨别颜色，甚至隔着厚实的门和墙壁也能看见东西。其中有一事例讲的是一个名叫薇拉 彼得洛娃的11岁女学生，她不但有正常的视力。还能用她身上不同部位的皮肤看见东西，而且隔着厚实的墙壁也能看得出来。这种能力首先是她的父亲察觉到的。一天，薇拉来到她父亲的办公室，碰巧把手按在一只上了锁的保险箱的门上。突然她问她的父亲干吗要把那么多旧报纸锁在里面，她甚至还讲出了报纸是怎样捆的。

　　薇拉的特异功能引起了离她家不远的乌里扬诺夫斯克镇的一个科学研究所的注意。四月间，俄罗斯联盟共和国卫生部的一个专门委员会对她进行了一系列的测试。在这些测试中，她能够隔着一块不透明的挡板阅读报纸。更为神奇的是，她在一种叫洛托的儿童游戏卡片上方移动肘部，就能说出印在游戏卡片上的数字和颜色。在另一次测试中，她穿着长筒袜和拖鞋，能用她的脚辨认出藏在地毯下一幅画的轮廓和颜色。其他测试表明，她的膝盖和肩膀也具有类似的视觉功能。在所有的测试过程中，薇拉的眼睛是被蒙住的。事实上，要不是眼睛被蒙住，她就没有用皮肤辨认东西的功能。同时还发现，她虽然能用手指识别东西，但是她的手一旦弄湿时，这种功能也就随之消失
