【D9】
Rudolph Valentino was a famous movie actor in America in the 1920s. He acted in silent movies. One day in 1922 Valentino went to a jeweler’ s shop to buy a ring. He saw a beautiful silver ring in the shop, but the jeweler was very reluctant to sell it to him.
"It’ 11 bring you bad luck, " the jeweler said. "It had a curse on it. "
" I don’ t believe you, " Valentino replied. " I don’ t believe in bad luck. " He bought the ring and put it on.
In the same year, Valentino made a movie called The Young Rajah. For the first time in his career he made a movie that few people liked. Valentino put the ring away for several years. His next two movies did well and Valentino forgot about the ring’ s curse. Then in 1926 he put the ring on again. Immediately he fell ill and a few hours later he died. Valentino left the ring to a friend in his will. She became sick as soon as she put the ring on. She passed the ring on to an artist called Russ Colombo and she immediately got better. However, Mr. Colombo died when his car was involved in an accident. He was wearing the ring at the time.
Then a thief stole the ring. A policeman witnessed the crime and shot his gun into the air to frighten the thief, but he accidentally shot and killed him. By now many people believed that the ring was dangerous and no one wanted to wear it. So the ring was put in a bank. Although the bank had never had a robbery before, it was robbed twice just after the ring arrived. In one robbery, several people died.
No one knows where the ring is now. No one wants to know!
