childhood when I could

alongside beloved characters.
By exhibiting this book, I hope to share the happiness and wonder of my childhood with
others. I believe that everyone deserves to experience the joy of a carefree and imaginative

Whether is Harry Potter suitable for children to read?
Harry Potter has been translated into about seventy languages with sales of hundreds of millions
of copies, making it one of the best-sellers of all time.
However, not everyone has been swept away by Harry Potter’s charm. Thus comes the heated
debate on whether the novel is suitable for children to read. Some people think there is a high level of
violence and killing described in Harry Potter. Others say Harry Potter encourages people to escape
reality and believe in the supernatural power. Those are harmful to the minds of children.As far as I’m concerned, there are reasons why Harry Potter is so attractive. Harry Potter
contains very good plots. Besides, the magic world in Harry Potter is quite different from reality. So
children should be brought up to distinguish good from bad .
Useful expression
1.Those are harmful to the minds of children.这些对孩子们的思想有害。
minds想法( mind的名词复数 ); 心; 智力; 理智
2. So children should be brought up to distinguish good from bad. 因此,应该培养孩子辨别好坏。

The movie Forrest Gump, directed by Robert Zemeckis, won six awards in the 67th Oscar in
1995. It tells us a story that how an ordinary person made his life outstanding.

legs in his childhood. People always think he can’t be successful in doing anything. But
the unlucky man has achieved lots of unbelievable successes: he is a rugby star, a war
hero, and a millionaire.
The movie is intended to tell us that life is wonderful and the rainbow is always
after clouds. There will be a miracle if only there is perseverance. The key point iswhether we have a good mind to change the bad situation. The movie also sends such a
message to us: do well what we should do, and life will return us well.

My Favorite Book
Of all the books I have read, A Dream of Red Mansions is my favorite.
A Dream of Red Mansions, one of the four great classical novels, co-authored by Cao Xueqin and Gao E,
enjoys great popularity among Chinese literature.
In this book we can see the rise and fall of a royal family in ancient China, in which every character
is so different in personalities that they end differently in destiny. Also, its writing style has a significant
effect on writers of their time and later generations.
Reading this masterpiece broadens my eyes and enriches my inner spirits as well, and to better
understand it I’d like to have another reading.
