Joker found one of the biggest diamonds in the world in his own backyard. He sold the stone to a diamond dealer for over three hundred thousand dollars. In New York, the diamond was resold. This time for almost eight hundred thousand dollars.
The true value of a diamond is never known until it has been cut. Once cut successfully, its value can increase a thousand times. It’s easy to understand why the owner of the Joker diamond went to the best diamond cutter he knew, Kaplan. The cutter studied the diamond for twelve whole months.
When he felt he was ready to start work, he discovered a flaw. He had to begin with his calculations all over again, or he might have made the stone useless.
Six more months passé, and Kaplan finally said the owner, “ I am ready to start my work. There will be one excellent diamond that will be comparable to any in the world, plus eleven small diamonds of first-class quality.”
Kaplan waited a few more days until he felt he was in the best physical and mental condition possible. He picked up his tools and held his breath as he made the first blow. The diamond split exactly as he promised.

The Hawaiian Islands are situated about two thousand miles away from North America, right in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Despite the distance the islands actually make up the fiftieth state of the United States. The islands were all formed by volcanic eruption(火山喷发)and on the largest of the islands, Hawaii, or the Big Island, there are still two active volcanoes, the Mauna Lao and the Kilauea, which still erupt every few years.
On the Hawaii islands the natives have a particularly strange way of indicating directions. They don’t use the north, south, east and west system common to the rest of the world. They use the mauka and makai system. Mauka means “mountain”. The mountains in Hawaii are always at the centre of the islands, as these are volcanic islands. Makai means “the sea”. The islands are small and the system is simple. Wherever you want to visit, it can always be described in terms of where it lies in relation to the mountains and the sea. A typical conversation between a native Hawaiian and a tourist might go as follows.
TOURIST: Excuse me! Could you tell me where the Sheraton Hotel is?
HAWAIIAN: Well…Let me see! From here it’s two blocks mauka, and then one block makai. You can’t miss it.

Dear sir,
You may remember that last week I was a guest at your hotel.
When I arrived at the hotel, I put my raincoat in the cupboard in my room, Number 6, and did not take it out again even once during the whole of my stay in Upton-on-Sea as the weather was so beautiful and fine. When the time came for me to leave for home on Saturday, I am afraid I left my raincoat behind.
Since my return to Leeds the weather here has got worse and worse, and I need the raincoat very much, so I ask you to kindly send it to me as quickly as possible----at my expense, of course. I’m sorry to cause you this trouble, but I should be very thankful if I could have it soon.
While I am writing, there is one other thing I must tell you. As I was leaving the hotel, the door-boy asked me for money. I refused, and he then shut the door behind me so hard that it knocked me down the steps and a small hole appeared in my trousers. I had no time to tell you about this as I was hurrying to catch my train. But I should be glad to hear what you are going to do about this rude behavior of one of your employees.
I should like to say that in all other ways my stay at your hotel was a very pleasant one, and I am ready for a second holiday at Upton-on-Sea.
Yours truly,
John Hogg
