My favourite book is Romance of the Three Kingdoms. I think it has the significant qualities of good literature mentioned in the article. First of all, the book reflects the essence of Chinese culture, such as Liu Bei’s benevolence and Guan Yu’s integrity. Second, as the book is set in the Three Kingdoms period, we read about the ups and downs of the main characters, so their unpredictable fates appeal to our feelings. Third, the most basic of human nature—love and hate, joy and sadness, fear and hope—is well presented in the book. The vow Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei make when they join together as brothers—to save the troubled and to aid the endangered—still has value today.
Homework checking
The author, who also lived in an unstable society, witnessed people’s suffering and saw their longing for a peaceful life, and reflected his own life and experiences in his novel. All of the points mentioned above make Romance of the Three Kingdoms a well-loved classic that will continue to have a strong impact on generations of readers to come.

A hundred men may pass a field and see only dead grass; but a poet stops, looks deeper, sees truth and beauty, and writes, “Yesterday’s flowers am I.” One who reads it is capable of seeing the beauty that was hidden from his eyes before.
When Christopher Marlowe’s Doctor Faustus asks in the presence of Helen, “Was this the face that launched a thousand ships ” he opens a door through which our imagination enters a new world, a world of love, beauty and heroism.

Sample answer:
Some people believe that classics are old, boring and have nothing to do with life today. However, this is not true. For example, Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina can still teach us not to build our own happiness on someone else’s pain.

Dear Jenny,
I am glad to talk about literature with you. Last time you told me that sometimes you can’t determine whether a book is of good quality or whether it’s worthwhile to borrow it from the library. Hopefully, the following suggestions can help you a little bit.
Read the first chapter of the book so that you can judge whether this book has the three significant qualities of good literature: description of hidden truth and beauty, the appeal to our feelings and imagination, and reflection of universal interest and personal style. Also, I suggest you read its book reviews online. Highly-rated books or the books that have won some famous awards are better worth reading. Of course, the book you choose has to cater to your taste.
Enjoy your reading!
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
