Tips

culture

Two big bearers: (1) the Greek myth — Queen 内奥比 boasted that her many children outshone the goddess Leto's two, so Leto's children Apollo and Artemis killed all of hers; weeping, she was turned to stone, the original symbol of inconsolable grief. (2) Captain 内奥比 played by 杰达·萍克特·史密斯 (Jada Pinkett Smith) in 《黑客帝国》 (The Matrix) sequels.
