　　The stories of Disney princesses(公主) are famous around the world. You probably know some of them, like Snow White, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty.
The Disney princesses are very beautiful. And the princes (王子) fall in love with them at first sight. In the end, they will have a happy life together.
　　But one problem about these princesses is that they usually cannot protect(保护) themselves. They need help from others. This is the traditional image(形象) of Disney princesses.
Now Disney made some new rules. To be a princess, you must follow these rules. Surprisingly(令人惊讶地), no rule talks about having a "beautiful face". Instead, the rules are about good characteristics(特征) like honesty(诚实), loyalty(忠诚) and never giving up.
Princesses need to grow up. When they meet problems, they need to protect themselves. They also need to find ways to get away from bad people.
　　For example, Elsa and Anna fight against the bad prince in Frozen(《冰雪奇缘》). They need to believe in themselves. And they also need to believe in friends. Mulan shows the courage(勇气) of fighting in the army. Beauty cannot help them, but a strong heart can.In the real world, these are the rules you need to follow.

My favourite book
Good books are valuable treasures. Among all the books I've read, the novel called The Old Man and the Sea is my favourite. It was written by an American writer. It tells about a fisherman who is lucky enough to catch a huge fish, but he finds it hard to take it home. On his way back home, he has to fight against the fish and the sea.
I like the book best because it is such a meaningful story that I can learn a lot from it. The fisherman is brave and he never gives up when he is in trouble. I also learn that nothing seems terrible as long as we have a strong will and a brave heart.
