My favorite great book is Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. Tom is a lively and clever young boy, and he finds himself in many exciting adventures. He runs away with his two friends, Huck Finn and Joe, to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days. With Huck he goes looking for treasure, with Becky he gets lost in a cave, and finally, they find a box of gold.
My favorite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead. He decides to go to his own funeral(葬礼). He hides and watches for a time and then suddenly he appears. Everyone is surprised to see him but they're also pleased to see him alive.
Tom is the hero of the story, but there are other important characters(人物). Huck is an outsider(外来者) and everyone is afraid of him. Becky is pretty with fair hair, Joe is Tom's best friend, and Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.
The theme of the story is about children growing up. It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America.
Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876, but it's still read and loved by people all over the world today. Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the nineteenth century, so it sounds very real. Today it's thought to be one of the greatest American stories. Go on—read it! I know you'll enjoy it, too.

Colin Boyle was born in 1973 near Dublin, Ireland. While he was ill in hospital at age 10, his uncle gave him an old violin. He loved it right away. After he left the hospital, he practiced at his school every day after class.
One day in 1987, John Leaf, the manager (经纪人) of several successful musicians, came to Colin’s school. He was having a meeting with the headmaster when he heard Colin practicing. After the meeting, he found Colin and invited him to appear in one of the concerts he was organizing that year. Colin, however, refused Leaf’s invitation because just then he was preparing for some important school exams. Years later, Colin made it to college to study engineering. At college he met Kim O’Malley, who was studying chemistry (化学). Kim was also good at music. Being students, they didn’t have much money and they usually worked in a restaurant on weekends.

My favorite great book is Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. Tom is a lively and clever young boy, and he finds himself in many exciting adventures. He runs away with his two friends, Huck Finn and Joe, to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days. With Huck he goes looking for treasure, with Becky he gets lost in a cave, and finally, they find a box of gold.
My favorite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead. He decides to go to his own funeral(葬礼). He hides and watches for a time and then suddenly he appears. Everyone is surprised to see him but they're also pleased to see him alive.
Tom is the hero of the story, but there are other important characters(人物). Huck is an outsider(外来者) and everyone is afraid of him. Becky is pretty with fair hair, Joe is Tom's best friend, and Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.
The theme of the story is about children growing up. It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America.
Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876, but it's still read and loved by people all over the world today. Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the nineteenth century, so it sounds very real. Today it's thought to be one of the greatest American stories. Go on—read it! I know you'll enjoy it, too.
