“Neville is my brother,” Sir Henry continued,”about five years age, my brother and I quarreled, Soon after this, our father died. I am the elder son, and I got everything. I wanted my brother to apologize to me. He didn?t, and so I gave him nothing. With the little money he had, he left England for South Africa. I wrote to him several times, but I received no replies. Perhaps, he never got my letters. I don?t know. But as time passed, I worried more and more about him.”
“Mr. Quatemain, will you please tell me everything you know about him?”
“Very well,” I said, “but you will be the first person to whom I have told what I know.” Your brother wanted to find King Solomon?s Mince. That is why he felt for Inyati”
“King Solomon?s Mines!”Sir Henry screamed.”I have never heard of it.where are they?” “There is a tale about them.” I will tell you what I know if you promise to keep it secret,” I said.
“You have our promise.” Sir Henry said.
“An elephant hunter. Evans, told me the tale.” I said, “he told me there was a destroyed city northwest of the Solomon Mountain, and Solomon had his diamond mines there”
“Then one evening a Portuguese(葡萄牙人).Jose Silvester.came to my camp and asked to stay the night. The next day he said.?When we meet again. I shall be the richest man in the world.”
“A week or more passed, Jose Silvester came back but he was ill badly. I took him into my tent. The next morning when I awoke.He was looking at the mountains. ?There it is!?he cried, ?but I shall never get there. I am dying?”.
“He took out an old map to me,?This map has been in my family for hundreds of years,?he said,?it will make you the richest in the world.?Then he died.”
I took the map out of my pocket and passed to Sir Henry. Sir Henry read the writing:”Fam Silverter. I am in a cave north of the mountain. I am dying of hunger. With my own eyes I have seen the diamonds in Solomon?s treasure cave behind the white Death. If you do find it, you will be a rich man!”
I took back the map and put it in my pocket. “It is an amazing story.” Sir Henry said.
“Yes.” I said.”But I have not invented it.” I stood up and left angrily. I thought they were doubting my story.

Nowadays people are making themselves beautiful in Korean ways．
“Thank goodness you have double eyelids(双眼皮)．Your parents will save a lot of money．”said a family friend when 1 was five years old．Double eyelids，which almost all the white people have，are rare among Northeast Asians．Only 25 9，6 of South Koreans are born with double eyelids．
I never quite understood how having double eyelids saved my parents money until this summer．When I came back to Seoul，everywhere I noticed cosmetic surgery clinics(整形诊所)and advertisements with South Korean women--tall，thin，with milky skin，10ng legs，nice big eyes and perfect noses．I found that South Korean beauty meant looking as“white??as possible． Cosmetic surgery has a kind of magical attraction to women--the promise of beauty．Women are often sure that suffering(痛苦)is necessary and worthy in order to be beautiful．This suffering is not for nothing．It is believed that beauty leads to attracting a better—lookingpartner．which then 1eads to a better—looking child and a better life．
Appearance is starting to be more important in work places．People with good appearance can have more chances．For example．my 29-year-old brother，who is slim and very tall，gets more job chances than his best friend，who is short and heavy，though both of them came from the same college and had the same good marks in their studies．In fact，many South Koreans believe that physical beauty equals happiness．

Jackie Chan is one of the greatest kung fu superstars in the world. He is also famous as a singer and a director. Jackie Chan was born in Hong Kong in 1954. He dreamt of entering the film industry when he was young. The film Drunken Master in 1978 marked the beginning of his successful career. In the film he successfully joined humour and exciting action together. His achievements are far snore than a kung fu superstar. He has devoted many years to charity work. I think he is such a great person that he will always be remembered.
