the world at her feet

　　emma watson, who plays hermione granger in the harry potter movies, seems to have it all. she is one of the most famous and successful actresses for her age in history.

　　emma has stared in five harry potter movies. she acted in the first one when she was just 9 years old. she did not have much acting experience before getting the role. she says she has other interests besides acting. “i love to perform, but i love to do a lot of things... i just go with the flow.”

　　she turned 18 this month and so gained access to the￡10.5 million fortune (财富) she has earned from the films.

　　although acting has brought her fame and fortune, emma says she does not act for money. she says she will not quit school to act full-time. “people can’t understand why i don’t want to ... but school life keeps me in touch with my friends. it keeps me in touch with reality,” she said.

　　like hermione, emma is a model student in her high school in england. in most subjects she got as last year.

　　emma is now filming the sixth film, harry potter and the half-blood prince. early next year, she will begin the seventh and final film in the series, harry potter and the deathly hallows. maybe hermione will not end up with harry, but at least we will still be able to see them together at hogwarts school.
