It is a well-known fact that / what the faces some people show to the world might be completely different to their real personalities. For instance, most comedians never cease to have smiles on their faces and always sound cheerful because that's the nature of their work. From this, it's impossible to know what / where their true feelings are. Smiles imply happiness, but remember - although they might be laughing on the outside, they might be weeping on the inside. That / How others are feeling is not something that we should make assumptions about, because it's not always obvious who is truly happy. What / That is certain is that comedians often use comedy to help them understand themselves and the world. In fact, comedy is a very serious job indeed!
众所周知,有些人向世界展示的面孔可能与他们的真实个性完全不同。例如,大多数喜剧演员脸上永远挂着微笑,声音总是欢快的,因为这是他们工作的本质。从这一点上,我们不可能知道他们的真实感受。微笑意味着幸福,但是要记住——虽然他们表面上是在笑,但他们内心可能是在哭泣。别人的感受不是我们应该假设的,因为谁真正快乐并不总是显而易见的。可以肯定的是,喜剧演员经常用喜剧来帮助他们了解自己和世界。事实上,喜剧确实是一项非常严肃的工作!

Ma Xu became a military doctor in 1947. She applied to become a paratrooper in1961, but her first application failed because there were no female paratroopers at that time. Ma was only 1.53 metres tall and weighed just 37.5 kg. But she learnt to parachute by training hard in secret. After Ma proved that she could jump as well as anyone else, her application was successful.
Ma is China's first female paratrooper. She completed over 140 parachute jumps over a period of 20 years - the most of any female paratrooper. She also set a national record as the oldest enlisted woman to do a parachute jump, at the age of 51.
In 2018, Ma donated her entire life savings to her home town in Mulan County. This donation was to support local education and public welfare.
Write an introduction to Ma Xu based on the profile. Use three or four subject clauses in your introduction.

马旭1947年成为军医。她于1961年申请成为一名伞兵,但由于当时没有女性伞兵,她的第一次申请失败了。马只有1.53米高,体重只有37.5公斤。但她通过秘密的刻苦训练学会了跳伞。在证明了她和其他人一样能跳之后,她的申请成功了。
马旭是中国第一位女伞兵。在20年的时间里,她完成了140多次跳伞,是所有女伞兵中跳伞次数最多的。她还以51岁的年龄创造了一项全国纪录,成为跳伞年龄最大的女性。
2018年,她将自己的全部积蓄捐给了木兰县的家乡。这笔捐款是为了支持当地的教育和公益事业。
One possible version:
It is a fascinating story that Ma Xu became a military doctor in 1947. What is even more remarkable is that she applied to become a paratrooper in 1961, despite the fact that her first application failed because there were no female paratroopers at that time. Despite being only 1.53 meters tall and weighing just 37.5 kg, it was her relentless determination that led her to learn to parachute by secretly training hard. After she had proven to everyone that she could jump as well as any other paratrooper, it was then that her application was eventually successful.
It is a proud achievement that Ma is recognized as China's first female paratrooper. What stands out even more is that she completed over 140 parachute jumps in a span of 20 years, which is the highest number recorded for any female paratrooper. It is also a testament to her dedication that she set a national record as the oldest enlisted woman to perform a parachute jump, at the age of 51.
In 2018, it was Ma's generous and selfless act that saw her donate her entire life savings to her hometown in Mulan County. The purpose of this donation was to support local education and public welfare, showcasing her deep commitment to her community. 【包含7个主语从句】

And it was after she had proven that she could jump as well as anyone else that her application was finally approved.
It is true that Ma is China's first female paratrooper. It is also remarkable that she completed over 140 parachute jumps over a period of 20 years, which is the most by any female paratrooper.

Yuan Longping, known as the "Father of Hybrid Rice," is a renowned Chinese agricultural scientist. Born in Beijing in 1930, he dedicated his life to improving global food security. In the 1960s, amid widespread famine, Yuan successfully developed the world's first hybrid rice strain, significantly boosting rice yields. His innovation not only alleviated hunger in China but also benefited numerous countries worldwide. Despite his fame, Yuan remained humble, continuing his research until his passing in 2021. His legacy lives on, inspiring future generations to innovate and contribute to society.
It is a universally acknowledged truth that Yuan Longping, famously known as the "Father of Hybrid Rice," stands as a renowned Chinese agricultural scientist. What sets his life's work apart is that, having been born in Beijing in 1930, he dedicated his entire career to advancing global food security. What is particularly remarkable about his achievements is that, amidst widespread famine in the 1960s, he successfully cultivated the world's first hybrid rice strain, thereby significantly elevating rice yields globally. What further distinguishes Yuan is that despite his immense fame, he remained modest and continued his research tirelessly until his passing in 2021. Lastly, it is his enduring legacy that continues to inspire future generations, encouraging them to innovate and contribute positively to society.

Now give a short introduction to the experiment using the information in the fact sheet.
The Scar Experiment, conducted by Dr. Robert Kleck in 1991, offers profound insights into self-image. In this experiment, volunteers were led to believe they had ugly scars on their faces using makeup, though in reality, the scars were later removed secretly. When sent out to observe people's reactions, the volunteers perceived rudeness and staring due to their imagined scars, feeling uncomfortable as a result.
The experiment highlights that our perception of ourselves significantly impacts how we interpret others' behaviors, even when those perceptions are false. It emphasizes that outer appearance is less crucial than our inner feelings about ourselves. By choosing positivity and happiness, we can shape our reality and receive it in return. Remember, your true self lies within.

Today, I'll discuss a fascinating psychological experiment about self-image, our perception of our appearance, abilities, and personality, which shapes our interactions with the world.
In 1991, Dr. Robert Kleck conducted the Scar Experiment. He recruited ten volunteers, placed them in separate rooms, and drew ugly fake scars on their faces using Hollywood-style makeup. After showing them their reflections and pretending to enhance the scars (but actually removing the makeup), he sent them outside to observe people's reactions.
The volunteers returned reporting that people were rude and stared at their imagined scars, making them uncomfortable. However, they had no scars at all. This experiment reveals that our outer appearance matters less than how we feel about ourselves.
In conclusion, our true essence lies within our minds. By choosing to be happy and positive, we can influence how the world perceives us. Remember, your true self lies within, so cultivate a positive self-image.

今天,我将讨论一个关于自我形象的有趣的心理学实验,我们对自己的外表、能力和个性的感知,这些塑造了我们与世界的互动。
1991年,罗伯特·克莱克博士进行了疤痕实验。他招募了10名志愿者,把他们安排在不同的房间里,然后用好莱坞风格的化妆品在他们脸上画出丑陋的假伤疤。在给他们看了自己的照片,并假装加重了伤疤(但实际上是卸妆)之后,他让他们到外面观察人们的反应。
志愿者回来后报告说,人们很粗鲁,盯着他们想象中的伤疤看,让他们感到不舒服。然而,他们没有任何伤疤。这个实验表明,我们的外表比我们对自己的感觉更重要。
总之,我们真正的本质在于我们的思想。通过选择快乐和积极,我们可以影响世界对我们的看法。记住,你真正的自我就在你的内心,所以培养一个积极的自我形象。

Hello, and thank you for coming. The subject of this speech is self-image, that is, your opinion of your own appearance, abilities, and personality. As we know, psychologists often perform experiments to learn more about human character and behaviour. Today, I'm going to talk about a psychological experiment from 1991. It’s called the Scar Experiment. This experiment was created by a psychologist called Dr Robert Kleck. First, he found ten volunteers and put each of them into a different room without mirrors. Next, he drew an ugly fake scar on each volunteer's face using make-up ---- the sort of make-up they use in Hollywood films. Then he took out a mirror and showed the volunteers their scars. Next, Dr Kleck pretended to improve the scars, but actually removed the make-up. So the volunteers thought they had scars, but they didn't.
After that, the volunteers were told to go outside, and take note of how people reacted to them. They did this, and came back. They all reported that people were ruder and less kind to them, and that people stared at their scars. As a result, they felt very uncomfortable. However, they didn't really have scars! The volunteers imagined that other people had changed their behaviour, but actually they had not.
As you can see, there's an important lesson here. It doesn't matter how we actually look --- the only thing that's important is how we feel about ourselves.
To sum up, who we are is in our heads. It's not how we look on the outside that matters, but how we feel on the inside. If we choose to be happy and positive, then we will feel that way. If we show a happy and positive face to the world, we will get one back in return. I hope you've enjoyed the speech. Thank you, and remember: your true self lies within.

你好,谢谢你的到来。这篇演讲的主题是自我形象,也就是你对自己的外表、能力和个性的看法。正如我们所知,心理学家经常通过实验来更多地了解人类的性格和行为。今天,我要讲一个1991年的心理学实验。这个实验叫做疤痕实验。这个实验是由心理学家Robert Kleck博士做的。首先,他找到了10名志愿者,把他们分别安排在一个没有镜子的房间里。接下来,他用化妆品在每个志愿者的脸上画了一个丑陋的假伤疤----就像好莱坞电影里的化妆一样。然后他拿出一面镜子,给志愿者们看他们的伤疤。接下来,Kleck医生假装改善了疤痕,但实际上卸妆了。所以志愿者们认为他们有伤疤,但他们没有。
在那之后,志愿者们被告知到外面去,并注意人们对他们的反应。他们这样做了,然后回来了。他们都说,人们对他们更粗鲁,更不友好,人们盯着他们的伤疤看。结果,他们感到很不舒服。然而,他们并没有真正的伤疤!志愿者们想象其他人已经改变了他们的行为,但实际上他们并没有。
正如你所看到的,这里有一个重要的教训。我们看起来怎样并不重要——唯一重要的是我们如何看待自己。
总而言之,我们是谁在我们的脑海里。重要的不是我们外表的样子,而是我们内心的感受。如果我们选择快乐和积极,那么我们就会有这样的感觉。如果我们向世界展示一个快乐和积极的面孔,我们将得到一个回报。我希望你们喜欢我的演讲。谢谢你,记住:真正的自我就在你的内心。

3 He has the outward appearance of the King of the Beasts, but he has a timid and sensitive character, which causes him to believe he is a coward. However, he performs brave actions even when he feels afraid, proving that he is in fact a courageous individual.
4 He is a thin and bookish boy with untidy dark hair. He doesn’t appear to be particularly tough and sometimes looks as if he lacks confidence. In reality, he is brave and loyal, and always ready for a dangerous challenge when it is necessary to do the right thing.
