The first Chinese actor captured （征服） the hearts of many Chinese in the USA． He read a letter by Zhuge Liang（181～ 234）to the emperor of Shuhan during the Three Kingdoms（220～280）period in the new season of Growling Tiger and Roaring Dragon（《虎啸龙吟》）
The letter has been read by so many students． We would never have thought that the text written in old Chinese could be so beautifully read in another language． As a result， foreigners begin to show interest in Rommance of the Three Kingdoms， translated bt C．H． Brewitt﹣Tailor and Robert E． Hegel．
Earlier in November 1979， pupils in England were able to watch a new TV program called Monkey． Most of them were hearing the story for the first time． However， the story of the Monkey King isn't new to Chinese Children in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West．
As soon as the TV programme came out more than 30years ago， western children became interested in reading this story because the clever Monkey King keeps fighting to help the weak and never gives up．
Chinese scholars（学者） should do a better job of introducing Chinese literature（文学） to the rest of the world． At the same time， we could encourage western schools to try something different．
Reading international literature is an effective way of understand other people in the world． And the more we understand each other， the more beautiful the world will be．

Tony never eats fish． This is not because he is allergic（过敏） to fish as food． He simply does not like the taste of it． You may not think this quite surprising， until I tell you that he has been a fisherman of one kind or another for most of his life．
At first， fishing was just a hobby． He used to sit on the river bank with his fishing rod（鱼竿） in his hand， waiting to feel the pull on the line． It meant a fish was trying to get the food from the hook（鱼钩）． He wound（收回） the line as soon as possible and took the hook from the fish's mouth， recorded its size in a notebook， then threw it back into the water．

Beauty sleep is a real thing， researches have shown that people who have enough sleep look more attractive （有魅力的） to others．
A few bad nights is enough to make a person look "especially" more ugly， their sleep experiments show．
The researchers asked 25 university students to join in their sleep experiment． They were asked to get a good night's sleep for two nights．
A week later， they were asked to sleep for only four hours every night for two nights in a row．
The researchers took make﹣up free （素颜） photos of the volunteers after both the good and the bad sleep．
Next， they asked 122 strangers to have a look at the photos and judge （评价） them on attractiveness， health， and sleepiness， as well as asking them： "How much would you like to make friends with this person in the picture？"
The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired， and， if they were sleepy， their attractiveness score was low．
The strangers also said they wouldn't want to socialize with the tired students． The researchers say this is natural for people． An unhealthy﹣looking face makes people run away． In other words， people don't want to hang around with people who might be ill．
Dr. Brewer， an expert at the University of Liverpool said "Judgement of attractiveness is often unconscious （无意识的）， but we all do it， and we are able to judge on even something small like whether someone looks tired or unhealthy． This study is a good reminder of how important sleep is to us．"
