Here are some more information for Chinese Rare:
The world is a big place and there are many different cultures, Europeans, Scandinavians, Asians, Africans, Hispanics and many, many more. Each of these cultures tends to have certain characteristics such as eye colour, hair colour, skin colour, etc,. Inherent with cultural backgrounds is a difference in skin types. For example, western cultures such as the central and northern Europeans have a tendency to fair complexions, hair and eye colour, while southern Europeans dent to have darker hair, brown eyes and darker, olive skin tones.
Africans and African Americans, have very dark or almost black skin, usually dark or black hair and brown eyes. Genetically, this skin type is less susceptible to the UV rays, although their skin can still get burned.
Asians on the other hand have a yellowish skin tone and can have brown or blue eyes but have mostly dark or black hair. Yes, genetics does have its opinion on how we look. The cultural differences are reflected in the skin and the genetic factors play an important role in how well our skin looks, how 'tough' it is and how vulnerable it is to certain skin problems.
For example, cultures that have a tendency to body hair, also have a tendency to oily skin and therefore have a potential problem with blocked secretory glands resulting in pimples and other skin problems. On the other hand, the Irish, who have a tendency to red hair and very fair skin, have less of a problem with oily skin, but they do tend to get burned easily and thus stand a greater risk to skin cancers. Similarly the Scandinavians and other central and northern Europeans and Americans.

Identifying the correct, natural skin care system for your skin's characteristics is essential and may need to be adjusted depending on your specific genetic influences, as within each of these groups, there is a wide range in skin tones, which tend to overlap from group to group.
Each of the different categories of skin characteristics has various advantages and disadvantages specific to that group. However, the overall structures and functions of our skin are very similar and are therefore cared for in very similar ways. Knowing your skin's particular strengths and weaknesses, you can tailor your skin care approach to your particular skin-characteristics.

Chinese Silver Yuan Coins - A Rare Symbol Of China's Past
China, with all its dignity and resplendency, has traditionally been known to be one of the finest places to find rare silver coins such as the Chinese Silver Yuan Coins.
The first few silver coins were minted and circulated round the different parts of the country back in 1889 when the 1st coining press was imported and the strategies introduced. Since there is actual pure silver content concerned, one of the oldest ways of really measuring the worth is by weight, so if you are a serious coin collector and have an interest in Chinese silver then this is how it is usually done.
The first or earliest silver coins that were issued were produced in the Canton, otherwise known as the Guangdong mint in the 1890s. These were done in denominations of 5 cents, 1, 2, and 5 jiao, and one yuan. Shortly other mints were build in different regions of the country and began producing similar silver coins as well as coins made out of copper in denominations of 1-2, 5, 10-20 cash.
With over twenty provincial regions producing and minting silver coins, the governing body saw the requirement to neutralise the nation's currency and finally commenced issuing its own Chinese Silver Yuan Coins in 1903 as well as other brass and copper coins. The designs of the coins modified once in a while, particularly after the revolution, but the size and the metal content stayed the same till the 1930s.
The Nationalist Government introduced on July 1949 the 1st silver yuan, which was initially worth 500 million gold yuan. It began circulating for a few months around the mainland before the civil war and stayed to be the official currency of the Republic of Taiwan until the year two thousand.
As of today, Chinese Silver Yuan Coins have changed into a welcome addition to the collections of many coin fans all over the world.

Could you please help proofread the paragraph translated from Chinese?
Please correct the errors and improve the sentence without changing the meaning. Thank you very much.
He had rare confidants. Because Tao always remembered him and treated him the same as before, sometimes they would correspond with each other. Taking advantage of reconstructing and expanding of the school, he was invited, more than once by Tao, to teach in the Hibiscus Town. After carefully observing the whole school, he found it very satisfactory.
Yes we can clearly see that this is translated from Chinese, or some Asian language. The 'tell' ? it is the sequence of expression.
Chinese and most Asian language do not have the facility of saying something and then use a phrase or clause to modify or complete change it later .. Using your example:
Because Tao always remembered him and treated him the same as before, sometimes they would correspond with each other.
In English, you can do it in reverse, and most people will probably do so:
He and Tao would correspond with each other, since Tao always remembered him and has treated him same as before.
This makes your paragraph a little 'strange-sounding' and rigid .. It will take a lot of years of experience to get over this difference in Asian vs. Western languages.
I found that rather than forming a lot of long sentences with clauses, it is a lot smoother and easier to build many short and straight sentences.
