As a teenager, Lee Ya-Ching was China’s most famous silent film actress. 1.But her greatest achievement was that she was China’s first woman pilot. Lee Ya-Ching was born in China in 1912. As an only child who lost her mother at a young age, Ya-Ching was raised by her father and grandmother. 2.在她父亲的帮助下, 她学会了许多技能。Ya-Ching went to English schools in Hong Kong and Shanghai and at the age of 16 she was sent to London to study. 3. Then she went to Switzerland and she decided to learn to fly there. She got her pilot’s license at the age of 21.
Seeing a need to train new pilots, Ya-Ching and some other pilots opened a flying school in Shanghai in 1936. 4. When the war between China and Japan started in 1937, she volunteered to be a pilot in the army. But she was refused. So she helped her country by setting up hospitals. Then she bought a plane and flew all over the United States, Canada and South America. She raised money to help Chinese people by flying.
Not much is known of Ya-Ching’s life after the war. 5. 她回到香港并在那里待了很长一段时间。In the 1960s, she returned to California, where she died at the age of 86.

24、Many got to know her for playing brainy (聪明的) Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies. Now, after 20 years, Emma Watson continues to shine as a successful actress.
In spite of (尽管) growing up in the UK, Watson is able to speak in a US accent when she needs to. When she was a child, she often sang along to US music on the radio. Later, when Watson started her acting career, she hired an expert to help with her US accent. “I worked with a dialogue coach and I just put in the time to really, really listen and just go over it and over it and over it until I could do it without thinking about it too hard,” she told The New York Times.
Watson’s hard work won her many roles in Hollywood. “Her accent in the movie The Bling Ring, from what I heard, is flawless,” US dialect (方言) expert Erik Singer told The Observer. “It’s a very specific accent, of course — what you might call young female LA.”
Yet, as a famous actress, Watson faces many challenges, especially from being followed by paparazzi (狗仔队). But being in showbiz (演艺圈)for years, the star has learned to keep her private life to herself. “I don’t want to be changeable: I can’t talk about my boyfriend in an interview and then expect people not to take paparazzi pictures of me walking around outside my home. You can’t have it both ways. Always looking on the bright side is what really matters if you want to succeed.” she once told in public.
