Two Interesting Stories
Shaving Away the Eyebrows
Si Burgher had some of the longest eyebrows in Indiana. They were so long that he had to brush them every day so that they did not look like a wild hair. They measured more than three inches in length. However, according to NBC News, the one thing that was even more important 10 him was the Bloomfield Rotary Club’s campaign to end polio (脊髓灰质炎). According to MSN.com, it started out as a light-hearted joke in which his fellow club members said that people would probably pay to trim (修剪) his eyebrows. After thinking about it, Burgher agreed.
Tickets for trimming Burghers eyebrows started al $100 for a swipe (刮) with the razor. The first person in line was his wife. With each eyebrow taking eight swipes to finish off, Burgher managed to raise $ 1,600 for the polio cure. His wife told reporters that she was delighted with his new look and that it made him look kind and handsome.
Stunt (特技) Driving
According to the report from World of Differcnce.com, Sue Harding hated the stereotype (成见) that librarians were boring just as much as she cared for the doctors and nurses in the Warwickshire and Northampton Air Ambulance Service.

All earnings were to be donated to the Warwickshire and Northampton Air Ambulance Service.
When the big day came, her stunt driving srned out to be quite impressive for a librarian. She put the stunt car through the paces, throwing handbrearns and following the speed and shoot chase formation. Not only did it get rid of the stereotype but it also raised money for the Ambulance Service.

My father was a taxi driver but I am a king—King Renato, of the country Pontinha, an island on Funchal harbour. It’s in Madeira, Portugal, where I grew up. It was discovered in 1419; Captain Cook once came here.
In 1903, the Portuguese government didn’t have enough money to build a harbor port, so the king sold the land to a wealthy British family, the Blandys, who make Madeira wine. Fourteen years ago, the family decided to sell it for just � 25,000 (￡19,500). I decided to buy it though I had no money—I was just an art teacher.
I tried to find some business partners, but they all thought I was crazy to want to buy what is actually a large rock; it has a small cave, a platform on top, and no electricity or running water. So I sold some of my possessions, put my savings together and bought it.
When the king of Portugal originally sold the island in 1903, he and all the governors signed a document, selling all the “possessions and the dominions (领土)” of the island. It means I can do what I want with it—I could start a restaurant, or a cinema, but nobody thought that someone would want to start a country. So that’s what I did: I decided that this would no longer be just a rock on the port of Funchal. It would be my island, about the size of a one-bedroom house.
