Andrew Carneigie, known as the King of Steel, built the steel industry in the United States, and, in the
process, became one of the wealthiest men in America. His success resulted partly from his ability to sell
the product and partly from his policy of expanding during periods of economic decline, when most of his
competitors were reducing their investments. Carnegie believed that individuals should progress through
hard work, but he also felt strongly that the wealthy should use their fortunes for the benefit of society. He
opposed charity, preferring instead to provide educational opportunities that would allow others to help
themselves. "He who dies rich, dies disgraced", he often said. Among his more noteworthy contributions to
society are those that bear his name, including the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh, which has a library, a
museum of fine arts, and a museum of national history. He also founded a school of technology that is now
part of Carnegie-Mellon University. Other philanthropic (慈善的) gifts are the Carnegie Endowment for
International Peace to promote understanding between nations, the Carnegie Institute of Washington to fund
scientific research, and Carnegie Hall to provide a center for the arts. Few Americans have been left
untouched by Andrew Carnegie"s generosity. His contributions of more than five million dollars established
2,500 libraries in small communities throughout the country and formed the nucleus of the public library
system that we all enjoy today.

     Over the past year, Liu, an 18-year-old Chinese American, has shot to fame while playing Wang Yuyan in
Jin Yong"s "Eightfold Path of the Heavenly Dragon" (《天龙八部》). Millions of teenagers have been drawn in

attitude," Liu said. Every day she spends hours practising all the kungfu kicks and punches for the show.
