While you are in trouble,what are you going to do What Cry Or escape Those are all the wrong ways!Robinson Crusoe can tell you the right answer!
It is an exciting story:Robinson Crusoe hated the comfortable life in his hometown. So, he wanted to be a seaman and traveled around the world.But one day,a terrible thing happened. A great storm came and their boat crashed!No one was alive in this accident except Robinson.He was the luckiest man in the world,because all his friends were dead but he was alive.
However,at the same time he was the most tragic man of all-He must face the fact. Alone on an island without food,water or gun!But,all roads lead to Rome!He just used his hands to work hard! Then,he made a cave,built a house grew corn and kept goats.In the end, he could enjoy the life on the island.In his twenty-fourth year on the island,he saved a wild man, and gave him the name of“Friday”.With Robinson’s teaching, “Friday” became a good servant.Finally, they got a boat and escaped from the island.
Surely,the writer of Robinson Cs is really a hero!It's too hard to describe Robinson with words. We could say that Robinson was very clever,and also he was brave.

My father and I played like that for about 15 minutes. 58 I didn’t even realized she was there while I was playing.That was one of the few times that I was “truly” lost in the music. 59 I was new at the instrument(乐器)，but it was a slow song and my ability(能力) didn’t matter，that is what music is all about.

七、 Growing Up With Good Books
My dear friends,
Reading is very important.We can get knowledge through reading.It can not only open our minds.but also make us cleverer and happier.Our study can be improved if we read more good books.The more we read,the more we will learn and the brighter our future will become.
However,some students spend much time in listening to music,watching TV or going online to play games.It takes much of their spare time.So I would like to suggest that everyone should read more books especially classics,so that we can spread our Chinese traditional culture to the world.
Let's start reading now.And let it become a part of our life!
