I live in Mentone, a quiet, simple, peaceful place, where the rich never come. I met Theophile Magnan, a retired, rich, old man from Lyons yesterday, in the Hotel des Anglais. Theophile looked sad and dreamy, and didn’t talk with anybody else, which brought me back to the past.
A long time ago, Francois Millet, Claude, Carl and I were young artists—very young artists—in fact.
Yes, Francois Millet, the great French artist, was my friend.
Millet wasn’t any greater than we were at that time. He wasn’t known, even in his own village.
We were all poor though we had stocks(存货) and stocks of as good pictures as anybody in Europe painted. Once a person ever offered four francs (法郎) for Millet’s “Angelus”, which he meant to sell for eight.
It was a fact in human history that a great artist would never be accepted until after he was starved and dead. His pictures climbed to high prices after his death.
Then we made a decision that one of us must die, to save the others and himself.
Millet was chosen, chosen to die.
During the next three months Millet painted with all his power, enlarged his stock all he could, not pictures, no! sketches, studies, parts of studies, fragments of studies, of course, with his cipher(暗号) on them.
They were the things to be sold.
Carl went to Paris to start the work of building up Millet’s name. Claude and I went to sell Millet’s small pictures and to build up his name as well.
We made Millet a master. I always said to my customer, “I am a fool to sell a picture of Francois Millet’s at all, for he is not going to live three months, and when he dies, his pictures can’t be had for love or money.”
Claude and I took care to spread that little fact as far as we could.
Carl made friends with the reporters, and got Millet’s condition reported to England and all over the Europe, and America, and everywhere.
The sad end came at last, Millet died, not really. He became Theophile Magnan.
The pictures went up. There’s a man in Paris today who owns seventy Millet pictures. He paid us two million francs for them. Do you still remember the “Angelus”? Carl sold it for twenty-two hundred francs.
We are no longer artists and Millet dead.

One night, a little swallow(燕子) flew over the city. He was very tired and wanted to have a good sleep in the city. When he saw the Statue(雕像) of the Happy Prince, he flew down and got ready to sleep between the feet of the Happy Prince.
Just as he was putting his head under his wing, some water fell on him. He thought it was raining. But when he looked up, he found the sky was so clear and bright that he could see lots of stars. Suddenly, he saw some tears(眼泪) were running down the Prince’s golden face.
“Why are you crying?” asked the swallow. “In a little street, there’s a poor house. From one of the windows, I see a woman sitting at a table. She’s sewing(缝) clothes for rich women to wear. On a bed in the corner of the room, her little boy is sick. He’s asking for oranges, but his mother has only water to give him, so he is crying. The boy is so thirsty and the mother is so sad. Little swallow, will you please take her the jewel(珠宝) from the top of my sword(宝剑)?” “It is very cold here and I am leaving for a warm place, but I will stay with you and do as you ask.” The swallow took the bright red jewel from the Prince’s sword and flew away with it in his mouth. He flew into the woman’s room and put it beside the woman’s needle(针).
After he flew back, he told the Prince what he had done. “It’s strange,” he added, “It’s so cold but I feel quite warm now.”
“That’s because you have done a good thing,” said the Prince. The little swallow began to think about this, and then he fell asleep.

Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The program works because everyone’s eyes are different. So in the future you won’t have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.
The eye-recognition (眼睛识别) program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA. Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon this technology will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are.
Eye-recognition is a course of recognizing iris (虹膜), which includes the following steps. First, a kind of machine needs to collect different examples of one’s iris from his eyes and store them. Second, when this person goes to the bank to take out money, this machine will have iris feature extraction (采集). Then, this machine will compare the examples kept in it with iris feature extraction. Once the examples and the feature extraction are the same, this person will be identified, and he will take out the money from the bank successfully.
However, scientists are also working on other systems. Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! We have already had machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger. Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don’t change as you get older, and don’t get dirty like hands or fingers, and even twins have different eyes. So the eye-recognition program can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. However, some other programs may only be 51% correct now. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.
In the future your computer will be looking at you in the eye, So smile!
