veryone has heard of Bill Gates. He is one of the richest and most successful people in the world. He was born in America in 1955. He was the youngest and the most famous businessman at the age of 31.
He has got a gray wild hair. Also, he has got grey eyes. He is very slim and well built.
One reason for his success is that Gates has always been very ambitious and hardworking. For such a rich person, his life is simple, and he spends little on himself and his family. He often gives his money for different charity.

decorated his room with different beautiful things. His witty sayings were well known among the students. After graduating from the university, Wilde turned his attention to writing, travelling and lecturing.
In his works, especially in his tales, he glorifies beauty, and not only the beauty of nature or artificial beauty, buo the beauty of devoted love. He admires unselfishness, kindness and generosity ("The Happy Prince", "The Nightingale and the Rose") and despises egoism and greed ("The Selfish Giant", "The Devoted Friend"). The theme of most of his works, even of his tales, is quite realistic. He shows the contrast between wealth and poverty. His own sympathy for poor, labouring people is quite evident. At the height of his popularity and success, tragedy struck. He was accused of immorality and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. When released from prison in 1897, he lived mainly on the Continent, settling later in Paris. In 1898 he published his poem "Ballad of Reading Gaol". He died in Paris 1900.
