South Korean actor Kim Woo-bin（金宇彬）doesnt think he is handsome. In his own words， his face looks like a dinosaur（恐龍）. But it doesnt stop him attracting（吸引）a lot of fans.

He has played many cool young men on screen. They look like a bad boy but have a good heart. Choi Young-do（崔英道） in the 2013 TV series（電視連續劇）The Heirs（《繼承者們》）is a good example.

Kim used to think “looking cool” was important for acting. Hed often look in a mirror（鏡子）to find the coolest expression.

But one day he read a book called Im an Actor. In the book， one actor said： “If youre sincere（真誠的）， the right expression will come out by itself.”

Kim said since then， he has stopped looking at himself in a mirror. “Instead I try to find the best emotion（情感）for the situation.”he said.

作文點撥

本文講述了作者最喜愛的一本書的主要內容，并從書中得出了“永遠不要放棄夢想”這一主題。文章敘述得有條有理，結構安排恰當，是一篇很好的記敘文。但個別詞語的用法需要注意：

?can表示“能夠”，是百分之百可以做到的，而從下文可知，主人公沒有做到，所以此處應用is about to，表示“即將”。

?teacher在此是特指，所以前面需要加定冠詞。

?the other表示兩者中的另一個，即總共只有兩個人；another指“另一個”，即很多人中的另一個。

?行為動詞后接動詞時，通常用動詞不定式，此處用to achieve表示目的。
