Diamonds
“Men grow cold as girls grow old
And we all lose our charms in the end

Ladies and gentlemen,do u know what this song all about?......No,it is not gold…..Yes! It is diamond! Perhaps some audience know this song.This song is singing by a Hollywood star,Marilyn Monroe,struck a chord which resonated across the world when she sang Diamonds are a Girl’s best friend in the classic 1950s film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.

Assessing a diamond’s true value is a complicated business.there are four universal factors that play a key part in this.these are the so-called ‘4Cs’ of the diamond trade:carat,colour,clarity and cut.Together,these criteria provide an invaluable benchmark for determining a diamond’s true worth.
First,carat. As Mae West said,“I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number of carats in a diamond.”Ladies,how many carats of diamonds you prefer? Although often mistaken as a measure of a diamond’s size,the carat is actually the measure of a diamond’s weight.One carat is equivalent to 200 milligrams of weight.
Second is Colour. As Glenda Millet said in the A Small Free Kiss in the Dark ,“Sometimes I can
And we all lose our charms in the end
But square-cut or pear-shaped
These rocks don't lose their shape
