WHICH FAMOUS PERSON IN HISTORY WOULD YOU LIKE TO HAVE MET AND WHY？

For me it would clearly be Leonardo da Vinci． I'd love to have met him． He was such a creative talent and not just an artist． He seems to have predicted a number of inventions that only came about hundreds of years later， like flying machines and so on． I' d like to tell him he really did see the future． Naomi， Chicago

I'd choose Cleopatra﹣the last king of ancient Egypt（埃及）． She is thought to have been very beautiful and is generally considered to have developed some really useful political alliances（政治同盟）．Not many women were that powerful in ancient times． I'd like to have seen how she did it． Lucinda， Nairobi

I'm Latin American， so I would name Simon Bolivar as the person I would like to have known． He's supposed to have been a very great， brave leader and is accepted to have helped achieve independence for several countries in Latin America in the nineteenth century． Patricia， Caracas

I studied philosophy（哲学）， so I would like to have spoken face﹣to﹣face with the Chinese philosopher Confucius． I'd like to have discussed with him his political philosophy and his idea about family values． He seems to have had a lot of respect for older people， and even though he lived over two thousand years ago， some of his opinions are still meaningful． Li Yun， Shanghai
