【正确答案】At the foot of Mount Emei, around Fuhu Temple, there lives a species of butterfly—one of the rarest rarities of the mountain—that is probably even more beautiful than the most beautiful butterflies in the world. When it closes its wings, it resembles a withered tree leaf hanging from a branch—scarcely noticeable to human. When it gathers its wings full of exquisite patterns, it conceals its beautiful colors. When it flutters out from a cluster of blooming flowers and alights somewhere in the middle of its graceful flight, it turns into a dried leaf, not even of a withering yellow, but of a deathly gray. It disguises its shape and colours in order to protect itself, but nevertheless it can’t help ending up in being captured, not only because of its beauty, but more because of the withered quality of its appearance that covers up its beauty.
