Internet Sensation[網絡紅人] Grumpy[脾氣壞的] Cat Has Amassed[積累] a ￡64，000，000 Fortune[財富]
She is the world’s crankiest[暴躁的] cat with a permanent[永久的] scowl[臭臉] that has inspired a best-selling series of books and a movie. But even the news that she has amassed a ￡64，000，000 fortune has not been enough to put a smile on the face of Internet sensation Grumpy Cat—real name Tardar Sauce.
The feline[貓科動物]， who shot to fame[一舉成名] two years ago in a
YouTube video that got 15.7 million views， has earned more than Hollywood stars Nicole Kidman， Cameron Diaz and Matthew McConaughey. Owner Tabatha Bundesen said the two-year-old cat is “unstoppable[無法停止的]”.
She now has 521，000 followers on Instagram and 255，000 on Twitter and her face appears on calendars， mugs and T-shirts. And She is the “spokescat” for a brand of cat food and her latest deal is for her own brand of iced coffee， Grumppuccino.
魚又有話說：誰能想到這隻光靠一張臭臉就火遍全球的“不爽貓”能在過去兩年裏為主人賺足6400萬英鎊（約6.2億人民幣）？出書、拍電影、拍硬照、代言、出席各種活動……這隻名為“Tardar Sauce”的混血貓頂著一張驚天動地的臭臉招搖過市，賺得缽滿盆滿，身價甚至比眾多好萊塢大牌還高。而它的主人也辭去服務員一職，專職給它拍照，帶它參加各種活動，旅遊度假。其實由於先天的侏儒症和反頜症，“不爽貓”不幸地成了永久性臭臉，也算是另一種意義上的麵癱。當然了，人家現在是億萬富喵，擺臭臉也是有資本的。有錢，就是任性！結論是：人不如貓！
British Tourist’s Wallet Found 18 Years Later
英國一男子找回十八年前旅行時遺失的錢包，東西竟一樣沒少
A wallet and passport belonging to a British tourist have been found in Switzerland—18 years after they were lost during a trip to the mountains. The man lost his leather wallet—containing his British passport， credit cards and receipts[收據]—while travelling by train from Zurich[蘇黎世] Airport to Geneva[日內瓦] in 1996. The British man now resides[居住] somewhere in the US and he told police： “If only my wallet could speak.”
“We have no idea how it found its way from the train to a shopping centre. But the man was surprised and delighted[高興的] to have it back， although the passport and credit cards had of course long expired[失效的].” A police spokesman[發言人] said.
