I am most interested in the first question.
George Washington is a very important person of Unite States of America. Everyone knows him, no matter young people or old people in America. I am very interesting about his life, how does he became a successful person, and how does he leaded America to a strongest country of the world. I just want to learn something from him. First, I need to know something about him, so I choose this topic.

About the interesting story ”The curious case of Benjamin Button” there have lots of
similarities between the book version which worte by Scott Fitzgerald and the movie
version which direct by David Fincher, absolutely there are manydifferences between
those two versions.
Something similar is Both of the book version and movie version describe
that Benjamin was looked very old since he born; something else is because he looked
very old so his father did not like him; the third similar thing is when he grew up a little
bit every people thought of he is weird, and the other similar thing is about his
experience of life, he went to army and married with a girl, and he got more and more
young; The last similar thing is he got his baby.
About the difference between the book version and movie version have 4 point.
First thing of the difference is all the story’s actors are different. In the book version,
there are Benjamin and his father, mother and his wife ,son and grandson.
In the movie version, there are Benjamin his birth parents, his foster parents, his
wife and his daughter.
Secondly difference is the family environment. In the book version, when he
born, even though his father and mother felt he is weird, but they still raise him
up; in the movie version, his mom died when she birth him, and his father think
his birth with old face will let people laugh at him, then he discarded him, put
him in front of a black couple’s house, then them became his foster parents
raise him up. Another thing is his father met him and tell him his real family
when his father die.
Next difference about his marriage.In the book version, he met his wife in a
dance party, his wife liked him because of he looks old before they marry, his wife
like the mature man more than young guy, and then their relationship more and
more worse because Benjamin more and more young; In the movie version, he and
his wife just live in a geracomium which is his foster parents’ before they get marry,
his wife grow up by her grandmother, and they get marry was after he back from
the war, and they broke up after they got their daughter because Benjamin more
and more young and he want to give his daughter a real father, not just a friends.
The last difference is his life experience. In the book version, he grow up by his
birth parents, his father let him go to Yale University to be a freshmen of there, but he
get refuse from the Yale’s registrar, because she thought he is lied to her about his age.
After this he went to Civil War, then he go to Harvard University to study, after he
get his degree he got marry with his wife, and he went to army again, but he got send
back from army, the reason was he is so young, then he work in his father’s company
and get son and grandson, during he died he can not remember anything . In the movie
version, he get discard from his birth father and he grow up by his foster parents, when
he know some people, he start think about his life, he went to be a sailor, after that he
back to home, his father passed away and he met his wife, then he married her, they
got a daughter who is different with when Benjamin birth, Benjamin want to give his
daughter a good family environment so he divorce with his wife, since that time he
start his remaining years.
So these 4 differences are actor, family environment, marriage and his life
experience, All of these difference makes the book version and movie version
quit different, also there are some similar things between the book version and
movie version, they are Benjamin looked old and his father did not like him when
he born, and he went to army, got married with a girl, got younger, and born baby.
Both of these two versions are very interesting.
