The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
Here is our monthly article on a favourite great book. This month, our guest writer is Mr. Jackson.
My favourite great book is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. Tom lives with his aunt Polly in the quiet streets of St. Petersburg, Missouri. He’s 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.
find oneself 发现了自己才能所在（能胜任某种工作）
lively  adj. 活泼的， 栩栩如生的
eg. a lively description
alive  adj. 活着的, 活泼的
eg. The fish we caught is still alive.
get lost 迷路
My favourite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead. He decides to go to his own funeral. He hides and watches
n. 葬礼，出殡
for a time, and then suddenly he appears. Everyone is surprised to （for a time = for a period of time）see him but they’re also pleased to see him alive.
surprised  adj. 感到惊讶的
eg. I was surprised to see him there.
surprise  vt. 使惊奇, 奇袭
eg. You surprise me!
surprising  adj. 令人惊讶的
eg. surprising news
Tom is the hero of the story, but there are other important characters. Huck is an outsider 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.

outsider 旁观者
The themes of the story are to do with children growing up and becoming more serious. It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America. Finally, it talks about freedom, social rules and how people are punished for bad behaviour.
do with 处理/ 解决
grow up v  长大，成长
freedom n. 自由
free adj. 自由的，免费的
vt. 使自由
Why do I think Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark Twain wrote the story in1876, but it’s still read and loved by people all over the world today. And although it’s only a story, Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the Southern states of America in the 19th century, so it sounds very real. Today it’s thought to be one of the greatest books in American literature. Go on--- read it! I know you’ll enjoy it, too.

Hello Sandy,
We have just returned from our holiday. We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors. This is a beautiful place. It is a natural park. There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds.
Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as be used to. However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live. Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk. Very pleasant!
I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley（峡谷）below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist in the valley. Also, in England, the old steam powered trains（蒸汽火车）are very popular. I have taken many photos of the train and from it.
Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter. It is very early（we usually expect snow in January）. It rained all day, then snowed in the evening. Today we have bright sunshine!
Both Jenny and I are well I don’t know if I told you, in the last e-mail, that Jenny is now working in a hotel. Although she has to work hard, people there are nice and she is enjoying the work.
Please write to us to tell us your news.
                                                                  Yours,
                                                                  Victor

【励志故事】
远山
苏格拉底和拉克苏相约，到很远很远的地方去游览一座大山。据说，那里风景如画，人们到了那里，会产生一种飘飘欲仙的感觉。
许多年以后，两人相遇了。他们都发现。那座山太遥远太遥远。他们就是走一辈子，也不可能到达那个令人神往的地方。
拉克苏颓丧地说：“我用尽精力奔跑过来，结果什么都不能看到，真太叫人伤心了。”
苏格拉底掸了掸长袍上的灰尘说：“这一路有许许多多美妙的风景，难道你都没有注意到？”
拉克苏一脸的尴尬神色：“我只顾朝着遥远的目标奔跑，哪有心思欣赏沿途的风景啊！”
“那就太遗憾了。”苏格拉底说，“当我们追求一个遥远的目标时，切莫忘记，旅途处处有美景！”
