It is his second, following his bestselling 2003 debut, The Kite Runner. Mariam is an illegitimate child, and suffers from both the stigma surrounding her birth along with the abuse she faces throughout her marriage. Laila, born a generation later, is comparatively privileged during her youth until their lives intersect and she is also forced to accept a marriage proposal from Rasheed, Mariam's husband.The author Hosseini has remarked that he regards the novel as a "mother-daughter story" in contrast to The Kite Runner, which he considers a "father-son story".It continues some of the themes used in his previous work, such as the familial aspects, but focuses primarily on female characters and their roles in Afghan society.The Author &BackgroundKhaled Hosseini ( born March 4, 1965) is an Afghan-born American novelist and physician. After graduating from college, he worked as a doctor in California, an occupation that he likened to "an arranged marriage". He has published three novels, most notably his 2003 debut The Kite Runner, all of which are at least partially set in Afghanistan and feature an Afghan as the protagonist. Following the success of The Kite Runner he retired from medicine to write full-time. Hosseini was born in Kabul, Afghanistan. His father worked as a diplomat, and when Hosseini was 11 years old, the family moved to France; four years later,they applied for asylum in the United States, where he later became a citizen. Hosseini did notreturn to Afghanistan until 2001 at the age of 36, where he "felt like a tourist in hisown country".Hosseini visited Afghanistan in 2003, and "heard so many stories about what happened to women, the tragedies that they had endured, the difficulties, the gender-based violence that they had suffered, the discrimination, the being barred from active life during the Taliban, having their movement restricted, being banned essentially from practicing their legal, social rights, political rights".This motivated him to write a novel centered on two Afghan women.TitleThe title of the book comes from a line in the Josephine Davis translation of the poem "Kabul", by the 17th-century Iranian poet Saib Tabrizi:"Every street of Kabul is enthralling to the eyeThrough the bazaars, caravans of Egypt passOne could not count the moons that shimmer on her roofs And the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls"In an interview, Khaled Hosseini explains, "I was searching for English translations of poems about Kabul, for use in a scene where a character bemoans leaving his beloved city, when I found this particular verse. I realized that I had found not only the right line for the scene, but also an evocative title in the phrase 'a thousand splendid suns,' which appears in the next-to-last stanza."SummaryThe novel centers around two women, Mariam and Laila, how their lives become intertwined after a series of drastic events, andtheir subsequent friendship and support for each other in the backdrop of Kabul in the 20th and 21st century. It is split into four parts that focus on individual stories: Part one is about Mariam, part two is on Laila, part three is on the relationship between the two women, and Laila's life with Tariq is in part four. The last section also happens to be the only part written in the present tense.Mariam lives in a kolba on the outskirts of Herat with her embittered mother. Jalil, her father, is a wealthy businessman who owns a cinema and lives in the town with three wives and nine children. Mariam is his illegitimate daughter,and she is prohibited to live with them, but Jalil visits her every Thursday. On her fifteenth birthday, Mariam wants her father to take her to see Pinocchio at his movie theater, against the pleas of her mother. When he does not show up, she hikes into town and goes to his house. He refuses to see her, and she ends up sleeping on the street. In the morning, Mariam returns home to find that her mother has committed suicide out of fear that her daughter had deserted her. Mariam is then taken to live in her father's house. Jalil arranges for her to be married to Rasheed, a shoemaker from Kabul who isthirty-years her senior. In Kabul, Mariam becomes pregnant seven successive times, but is never able to carry a child to term. This is a sad, disquieting reality for both Rasheed and Mariam. Ultimately Rasheed grows more and more despondent over his wife's inability to have a child and particularly a son. As their marriage wears on Rasheed gradually becomes more and more abusive.Part Two introduces Laila. She is a girl growing up in Kabul who is close friends with Tariq, a boy living in her neighborhood.They eventually develop a romantic relationship despite being aware of the social boundaries between men and women in Afghan society. War comes to Afghanistan, and Kabul is bombarded by rocket attacks. Tariq's family decides to leave the city, and the emotional farewell between Laila and Tariq culminates with them making love. Laila's family also decides to leave Kabul, but as they are packing a rocket destroys the house, killing her parents and severely injuring Laila. Laila is subsequently taken in by Rasheed and Mariam.After recovering from her injuries, Laila discovers that she is pregnant with Tariq's child. After being informed by Abdul Sharif that Tariq has died, she agrees to marry Rasheed, a man eager to have a young and attractive second wife in hopes of having a son with her. When Laila gives birth to a daughter, Aziza, Rasheed is displeased and suspicious. This results in him becoming abusive towards Laila. Mariam and Laila eventually become confidants and best friends. They plan to run away from Rasheed and leave Kabul but are caught at the bus station. Rasheed beats them and deprives them of water for several days, almost killing Aziza.A few years later, Laila gives birth to Zalmai, Rasheed's son. The Taliban has risen to power and imposed harsh rules on the Afghan population, prohibiting women from appearing in public without a male relative. There is a drought, and living conditions in Kabul become poor. Rasheed's workshop burns down, and he is forced to take jobs for which he is ill-suited. He sends Aziza to an orphanage. Laila endures a number of beatings from the Taliban when caught alone on the streets in attempts to visit her daughter.Then one day Tariq appears outside the house, and he and Laila are reunited. Laila realizes that Rasheed had hired AbdulSharif to inform her about Tariq's fake death, so that he could marry her. When Rasheed returns home from work, Zalmai tells his father about the visitor. Rasheed starts to savagely beat Laila. He nearly strangles her, but Mariam intervenes and kills Rasheed with a shovel. Afterwards, Mariam confesses to killing Rasheed in order to draw attention away from Laila and Tariq. Mariam is publicly executed, allowing Laila and Tariq to leave for Pakistan with Aziza and Zalmai. They spend their days working at a guest house in Murree, a summer retreat.After the fall of the Taliban, Laila and Tariq return to Afghanistan. They stop in the village where Mariam was raised, and discover a package that Mariam's father left behind for her: a videotape of Pinocchio, a small sack of money, and a letter. Laila reads the letter and discovers that Jalil had regretted sending Mariam away. Laila and。

Book report 的规范格式

Book report 的规范格式

Book report 的规范格式:1. Introductory ParagraphThe first sentence should state for which instructor and class the book-report is being written.The second sentence should state the title of the book and the author's name.The third sentence should tell how many pages the book has and the name of the publisher.The fourth sentence can state basic bibliographic information about the book. Bibliographic information means not only the author and title but also what company published the book, what year it was published in and any other relevant information such as the edition and if the book has been translated, simplified or abridged. (see copyright page and the back of the title page.)The next sentence should state the reason(s) you decided to read this book. Why did you choose this particular book? Typical reasons might be:o You like the author.o You like this type of book (i.e. mystery, western, adventure or romance, etc.).o Someone recommended the book to you.o It was on a required reading list.o You liked the cover.These reasons do not have to be complex. Most people choose the books they read because they like the author or somebody recommended it to them. If you chose the book because you like the author, then state why you like that author.An optional sentence can be used if the cover (back cover) of the book gives you any additional information then add a sentence with that information.o Was the book a best seller?o Are there X million copies in print?o Did it win any major awards?2. Main Character(s) ParagraphThe first sentence of this paragraph should state who the main character or characters of the book are, and why they are important. Refer to this person or these persons as the Main Character or Main Characters.You will need at least a complex sentence for this, and probably more than one sentence.3. Other Characters ParagraphYou should compose at least one sentence for each of the other prominent or important characters in the book. State the name of each of the other important characters, and the key role that each one plays in the bookMost books have five or six prominent characters besides the main character, so simply listing each one and stating their role in the book will give you a good sized paragraph.4. Plot Summary ParagraphThis is perhaps the hardest paragraph to write in five sentences or so. If you have to write a bit more don't worry. Here are the main points to cover:o State the type of book (Mystery, Western, etc.).o What place or country was the book set in?o What time period was the book set in? (19th century, the present, ancient Rome, the 23rd century).o Other physical locations which are important, like: ships, airplanes, houses, or buildings.o Other notable attributes of the book. (Was it violent, scary, fast paced, etc.).o What is the main character trying to do?o What is the outcome of the book?o etc.Make sure you cover all of the major parts of the plot. You might have to go back through the book, chapter by chapter, and make a few notes.5. Personal Impressions and Conclusion ParagraphSimply talk about what you liked or did not like about the book. Use this paragraph as your conclusion. It should summarize your overall impressions of the book and bring the report to a close.o Start with a sentence that states that you are now writing a conclusion. (For example: "My final thoughts on 'A Fine Balance' are that it is a fascinating book but I am not entirely sure if I completely understood the thematic message of the book."o Restate your reasons why you liked and/or disliked the book using different words. o Write two sentences that talk about the books good points and weak points.o Write a sentence or two about what you learned from the book.o Close with a sentence that states whether you would recommend the book to others.Don't be afraid to give your own honest impressions of the book. After all, if you've read the book thoroughly, you are entitled to your own interpretation of it.Typically, your book report should not exceed two double-spaced pages, and it should be somewhere between 600 and 800 words in length.Research AssistanceThis site, which claims to be the best single research source online, maintains an inventory of more than 25,000 research reports on thousands of subjects; many of which are book summaries. Most are available for immediate download. If your subject isn't already in their archives, they will do custom research and writing for you. You can download existing papers and/or order custom research papers 24 Hours a Day!This is the Lakewood Public Library student guide to completing a book report... oris it? There are two closely related terms to be aware of here. Book Reports andBook Reviews. Many people use both terms in the same breath but there areimportant differences. A book report is completely factual. It includes informationon the author, title, place and year of publication as well as a summary of thecontent of the book. A book review, on the other hand, is much more personal. It isreally an expression of the reader's opinion of the work, or of specific aspects of thework. The review will probably include much of the same factual content as thereport, but it is the reader's personal opinions that are most important. For thepurposes of this guide we will be dealing with the book report. A short sectiontoward the end of this guide will give you some ideas for book reviews.The steps to follow for your book report are:Choosing Your BookReading the BookThe Outline of Your ReportThe Draft and the Final ReportChoosing Your BookPerhaps your teacher has assigned a specific book for you to read. If this is the case you can skip this section and move on to READING THE BOOK. If you are able to pick the book of your choice you must first decide whether you want to read fiction or non-fiction. Do you love reading history books, or do you prefer novel reading? This is an important question to ask yourself. If you do a book report on a book which you dislike several problems arise. Firstly, you are not going to enjoy writing a report on such a book. Secondly, your report is going to be almost entirely negative. Whether this is an accurate reflection of the book or not the reader of your report will probably be turned off by your attitude. There is nothing wrong with selective criticism, but a book report which criticizes the author and his work at every turn is self defeating. So, choose your book carefully. The result will be more pleasureable, both for yourself and for whoever reads your report.Here are some links to book report pages on the Internet. You should find some good ideas about the type of book you want to read on these pages. Many of the reports are very simply constructed. However, they should give you some ideas both about the types of book you might want to read, as well as how you might want to construct your report.•Essay Depot-Book Reports•Book Adventure•CLP Teen Reads•Just for Kids Who Love Books•Reading the BookIn the hustle and bustle of modern everyday life the simple pleasure of reading a good book is often forgotten. There is nothing easier yet more satisfying than sitting down in a favorite place to read. Find somewhere quiet and private where you are unlikely to be disturbed. Try to pick the place where you can be transported into the world of the book with a minimum of distraction. It is fine to read your book in asingle sitting, or you can read it over a number of days. Know your limitations here. Do not make yourself read a set number of pages or chapters every day. This can make your reading a chore. Read as much as you are comfortable with and then put the book down until you are ready to start again. Mark where you stopped with a bookmark or a slip of paper. Try not to let a long time elapse between readings. A day or two, at most, is probably about right.If you have a cheap personal copy of the book you are reading you might want to mark parts of the text which interest you. Do this in pencil. A word of warning here! Marking books is not a good habit to get into. During the course of your educational career you will meet many professional book lovers who will take a dim view of you marking books which are not your own. Talk to any college librarian if you want to hear a long history of irretrievably damaged books! A better idea than marking your book is to keep a notebook beside you so that you can write brief notes and page numbers you might want to come back to. You could do this during a second reading. This way you can read your book right through uninterrupted.How many times should you read the book? This is a personal choice. Obviously you have to read it cover to cover at least once. Twice is recommended. If you really love the book you may find yourself reading it a third or even a fourth time. Many people have a favorite book which they read over and over again the way that you might watch a favorite movie. If you are lucky enough to find such a book the actual writing of your report will be more of a pleasure than a burden.The Outline of Your ReportYou have read your book. Your next step will be to organize what you are going to say about it in your report. Writing the basic elements down in an outline format will help you to organize your thoughts.What will you include in the outline? Follow whatever instructions your teacher has given you. If you are on your own, however, the following guidelines should help.Let's assume for the moment that you've chosen a work of fiction. We'll start with a description of the book. The description should include such elements as:1.The setting—where does the story take place? Is it a real place or animaginary one? If the author does not tell you exactly where the storyis set, what can you tell about it from the way it is described?2.The time period—is the story set in the present day or in an earlier timeperiod? Perhaps it is even set in the future! Let your reader know.3.The main character(s)—who is the story mostly about? Give a briefdescription. Often, one character can be singled out as the main character,but some books will have more than one.4.The plot—what happens to the main character? WARNING! Be carefulhere. Do not fall into the boring trap of reporting every single thing thathappens in the story. Pick only the most important events. Here are somehints on how to do that. First, explain the situation of the main character asthe story opens. Next, identify the basic plot element of the story--is themain character trying to achieve something or overcome a particularproblem? Thirdly, describe a few of the more important things that happento the main character as he/she works toward that goal or solution. Finally,you might hint at the story's conclusion without completely giving awaythe ending.The four points above deal with the report aspect of your work. For the final section of your outline, give your reader a sense of the impression the book made upon you. Ask yourself what the author was trying to achieve and whether or not he achieved it with you. What larger idea does the story illustrate? How does it do that? How did you feel about the author's style of writing, the setting, or the mood of the novel. You do not have to limit yourself to these areas. Pick something which caught your attention, and let your reader know your personal response to whatever it was.What about non-fiction?If given the option, you might have chosen a non-fiction biography, history, or a factual text on another subject of interest to you. In that case, the descriptive section of your report should include:1.subject—an initial statement on the general subject of the book.2.summary—your summary of what the author had to say about the subject.Again, pick only the most important points to discuss. For a biography,describe some of the key events in the person's life. For a history or othersubject, describe some of the main points made about the subject. If thebook is divided into different chapters, you can often use those divisions asa guide to what the main points are.After you've described your book, express some of your thoughts about what you've read. What seemed to be the author's main reason for writing the book? What was the most interesting thing you learned about the book's subject? Why did you find it interesting? You might also give your opinion on how the subject was presented. Did the author hold your interest?Remember! Whether you are writing about fiction or non-fiction you must be sure to recognize the main idea or ideas in the book. So be sure that you have a good understanding of it before you begin writing. Keep the book beside you while youare writing your report so that you can refer to it when necessary.For more information about outlines take a look at our studentguide to Research Paper - Making an OutlineThe Draft and the Final ReportThe DraftYour draft will be a fleshing out of the ideas from your outline. Don't worry about being too neat as noone else will be reading this part of your work. You can write additional notes in the margins but try to make sure that, when you come back to write your final report, you can understand the exact order of your material.The Final ReportIf you have followed the advice on these pages you should be ready to write your final report. Thoroughly familiarize yourself with your draft before you put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard. All of your revisions should have been made on your draft so your job now is to make sure that your presentation is correct. Check your grammar and your spelling. Try to use a word processor if possible. Typed reports look better than handwritten ones. They are easier for your teacher to read and they are easier for you to correct. Cutting and pasting your work can be a real bonus here.These pages are a very basic guide to constructing a book report. It is strongly recommended that you supplement what you have learned here by looking below at some of the Library's holdings of books on book reports and book reviews.Study Guide AidsYou might also want to quickly review the book you have read by referring to a couple of the series which are available at the library. Masterplots and Cliffs Notes provide quick summaries of classic texts. They are particularly useful when you are trying to make sense of a complicated plot or a lengthy list of characters.For more coverage of classic works and mostly adult level material, try these online sources:ShmoopSparkNotesClassicNotes by GradeSaverNovelGuideLPL tip: Cliffs Notes are available in the circulating collection onthe second floor while Masterplots can be found in the Referencecollection.A word of warning here. These resources should only be used to reinforce what you have learned while reading your book. You cannot write a good book report without reading the book itself! Don't rely completely on Masterplots or Cliff Notes. You deny yourself the pleasure of reading, and your teacher will know!A Final Note - Get as much information as you can from yourteacher before attempting your own report. Find out exactly whathe/she expects you to do. Finally, enjoy yourself. As we saidearlier this need not be a chore. Book reporting can be one of themost enjoyable types of assignment and it can really help todevelop your critical faculties. We hope that this short guidegoes some way towards helping you in your endeavors.Book ResourcesAuthor: Sutherland, Zena.Title: The Best in Children's Books: The University of Chicago Guide to Children's Literature, 1985-1990.Publisher: Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1991.Location: MAIN JUVENILE: j028.52 Sutherland.Author: Colligan, Louise.Title: Scholastic A+ Junior Guide to Book Reports.Publisher: New York, N.Y. : Scholastic, c1989.Location: MAIN JUVENILE: j808.04 242 : MADISON JUVENILE: j808.04 242 Author: Horning, Kathleen T.Title: From Cover To Cover: Evaluating and Reviewing Children's Books.Publisher: New York: HarperCollins, c1987Location: MAIN JUVENILE: j028.162 HorningAuthor: Teitelbaum, Harry.Title: How To Write Book Reports.Publisher: New York: Monarch Press, 1982, 1975.Location: MAIN ADULT: 808 857Author: James, Elizabeth.Title: How To Write Your Best Book Report.Publisher: New York: Lothrop, Lee & Shepard Books, c1986.Location: MAIN JUVENILE: j372.623 514Author: Allen, Eliot D.Title: A Short Guide To Writing a Critical Review.Publisher: Deland, Fla.: Everett/Edwards, c1975, 1978 printing.Location: MAIN ADULT: 808.066028 114读书报告是一种非常有用的实用体裁,它可以帮助我们记录复习学过的知识并提高我们的概括能力、综合能力、分析能力和评判能力。

A Book R e p o r t of a Thousand Sp l e nd i d SunsA Book Report of a Thousand Splendid Suns Translation 1x2 150704203xBrief IntroductionA Thousand Splendid Suns is a 2007 novel by Afghan-American author Khaled Hosseini. It is his second, following his bestselling 2003 debut, The Kite Runner. Mariam is an illegitimate child, and suffers from both the stigma surrounding her birth along with the abuse she faces throughout her marriage.

He has published three novels, most notably his 2003 debut The Kite Runner, all of which are at least partially set in Afghanistan and feature an Afghan as the protagonist. Following the success of TheKite Runner he retired from medicine to write full-time. Hosseini was born in Kabul, Afghanistan. His father worked as a diplomat, and when Hosseini was 11 years old, the family moved to France; four years later, they applied for asylum in the United States, where he later became a citizen. Hosseini did not1return to Afghanistan until 2001 at the age of 36, where he "felt like a tourist in hisown country".Hosseini visited Afghanistan in 2003, and "heard so many stories about what happened to women, the tragedies that they had endured, the difficulties, the gender-based violence that they had suffered, the discrimination, the being barred from active life during the Taliban, having their movement restricted, being banned essentially from practicing their legal, social rights, political rights".This motivated him to write a novel centered on two Afghan women.TitleThe title of the book comes from a line in the Josephine Davis translation of the poem "Kabul", by the 17th-century Iranian poet Saib Tabrizi:"Every street of Kabul is enthralling to the eyeThrough the bazaars, caravans of Egypt passOne could not count the moons that shimmer on her roofsAnd the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls"In an interview, Khaled Hosseini explains, "I was searching for English translations of poems about Kabul, for use in a scene where a character bemoans leaving his beloved city, when I found this particular verse. I realized that I had found not only the right line for the scene, but also an evocative title in the phrase 'a thousand splendid suns,' which appears in the next-to-last stanza."SummaryThe novel centers around two women, Mariam and Laila, how theirlives become intertwined after a series of drastic events, and their subsequent friendship and support for each other in the backdrop ofKabul in the 20th and 21st century. It is splitinto four parts that focus on individual stories: Part one is about Mariam, part two is on Laila, part three is on the relationship between the two women, and Laila's life with Tariq is in part four. The last section also happens to be the only part written in the present tense.Mariam lives in a kolba on the outskirts of Herat with her embittered mother. Jalil, her father, is a wealthy businessman who ownsa cinema and lives in the town with three wives and nine children. Mariam is his illegitimate daughter,and she is prohibited to live with them, but Jalil visits her every Thursday. On her fifteenth birthday, Mariam wants her father to take her to see Pinocchio at his movie theater, against the pleas of her mother. When he does not show up, she hikes into town and goes to his house. He refuses to see her, and she ends up sleeping on the street. In the morning, Mariam returns home tofind that her mother has committed suicide out of fear that her daughter had deserted her. Mariam is then taken to live in her father's house. Jalil arranges for her to be married to Rasheed, a shoemaker from Kabul who isthirty-years her senior. In Kabul, Mariam becomes pregnant seven successive times, but is never able to carry a child to term. This is a sad, disquieting reality for both Rasheed and Mariam. Ultimately Rasheed grows more and more despondent over his wife's inability to have a child and particularly a son. As their marriage wears on Rasheed gradually becomes more and more abusive.Part Two introduces Laila. She is a girl growing up in Kabul who is close friends with Tariq, a boy living in her neighborhood. They eventually develop a romantic relationship despite being aware of the social boundaries between men and women in Afghan society. War comes to Afghanistan, and Kabul is bombarded by rocket attacks. Tariq's family decides to leave the city, and the emotional farewell between Laila and Tariq culminates with them making love. Laila's family also decides to leave Kabul, but as they are packing a rocket destroys the house,killing her parents and severely injuring Laila. Laila is subsequently taken in by Rasheed and Mariam.After recovering from her injuries, Laila discovers that she is pregnant with Tariq's child. After being informed by Abdul Sharif that Tariq has died, she agrees to marry Rasheed, a man eager to have a young and attractive second wife in hopes of having a son with her. When Laila gives birth to a daughter, Aziza, Rasheed is displeased and suspicious. This results in him becoming abusive towards Laila. Mariam and Lailaeventually become confidants and best friends. They plan to run away from Rasheed and leave Kabul but are caught at the bus station. Rasheed beats them and deprives them of water for several days, almost killing Aziza.A few years later, Laila gives birth to Zalmai, Rasheed's son. The Taliban has risen to power and imposed harsh rules on the Afghan population, prohibiting women from appearing in public without a male relative. There is a drought, and living conditions in Kabul become poor. Rasheed's workshop burns down, and he is forced to take jobs for which he is ill-suited. He sends Aziza to an orphanage. Laila endures a number of beatings from the Taliban when caught alone on the streets in attempts to visit her daughter.Then one day Tariq appears outside the house, and he and Laila are reunited. Laila realizes that Rasheed had hired Abdul Sharif to inform her about Tariq's fake death, so that he could marry her. When Rasheed returns home from work, Zalmai tells his father about the visitor. Rasheed starts to savagely beat Laila. He nearly strangles her, but Mariam intervenes and kills Rasheed with a shovel. Afterwards, Mariam confesses to killing Rasheed in order to draw attention away from Laila and Tariq. Mariam is publicly executed, allowing Laila and Tariq to leave for Pakistan with Aziza and Zalmai. They spend their days working at a guest house in Murree, a summer retreat.After the fall of the Taliban, Laila and Tariq return to Afghanistan. They stop in the village where Mariam was raised, and discover a package that Mariam's father left behind for her: a videotape of Pinocchio, a small sack of money, and a letter. Laila reads theletter and discovers that Jalil had regretted sending Mariam away. Laila andTariq return to Kabul and use the money to fix up the orphanage, where Laila starts working as a teacher. Laila is pregnant with herthird child, and if it is a girl, Laila has already named her Mariam.CommentsAfter reading the novel,I am deeply touched and shocked.I am touched by the patience and suffering of Mariam and the friendship between Mariam and Laila.I am shocked by the violenceand abuse of Rasheed.It is a beautiful, heart-wrenching story of an unforgiving time, an unlikely bond and an indestructible love. Although Mariam and Laila suffer many pains, yet love can move a person to act in unexpected ways, lead them to overcome the most daunting obstacles with a startling heroism. In the end it is love that triumphs over death and destruction.Love may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you consider the war-ravaged landscape of Afghanistan. But that is the emotion—subterranean, powerful, beautiful, illicit, and infinitely patient—that suffuses the pages of Khaled Hosseini's A Thousand Splendid Suns. As in his best-selling first novel, The Kite Runner, Hosseini movingly examines the connections between unlikely friends, the fissures that open up between parents and children, the intransigence of quiet hearts. Nowadays,there are still many wars in this land threatening the lives of the people stay there.And I wonder how will these Afghan women do, and more important, what can WE do.A Book Report of a Thousand Splendid SunsStyle &TechniqueA Thousand Splendid Suns received significant praise from reviewers, with Publishers Weekly calling it "a powerful, harrowing depiction of Afghanistan" and USA Today describing the prose as "achingly beautiful".Lisa See of The New York Times attributed the book's success to Hosseini "understandingthe power of emotion as few other popular writers do".Natasha Walter from The Guardian wrote, "Hosseini is skilled at telling a certain kind of story, in which events that may seem unbearable - violence, misery and abuse - are made readable. He doesn't gloss over the horrors his characters live through, but something about his direct, explanatory style and the sense that you are moving towards a redemptive ending makes the whole narrative, for all its tragedies, slip down rather easily."6。

Tips on Book ReportsGenerally speaking, a book report consists of three main parts including Introduction, Body and Conclusion.IntroductionThe introduction segment of your book report starts with a strong introductory sentence that grabs your reader's attention. Somewhere in your first paragraph, you should also state the book's title (italicized), the topic, and the author's name as well as brief statements about the book's angle, the genre, the theme,and a hint about the writer's feelings in the introduction.For example: “The Red Badge of Courage, by Stephen Crane, is a book about a young man growing up during the Civil War. Henry Fleming, the main character in The Red Badge of Courage, begins his life-changing adventure as a naive young man, eager to experience the glory of war. He soon faces the truth about life, war, and his own self-identity on the battlefield. However, The Red Badge of Courage, by Stephen Crane, is a coming of age novel, published by D. Appleton and Company in 1895, about thirty years after the Civil War ended. In this book, the author reveals the ugliness of war, and examines its relationship to the pain of growing up.BodyIn the body of your book report, you will use your notes to guide you through an extended summary of the book. You will weave your own thoughts and impressions into the plot summary. Before you get started on the body of the report, take a few minutes to jot down some helpful information by considering the following points.∙Did you enjoy the book?∙Was it well written?∙What was the genre?∙Which characters play important roles that relate to the overall theme?∙Did you notice reoccurring symbols?∙Can you identify the writer's thesis? (non-fiction)∙What is the writing style?∙Did you notice a tone?∙Was there an obvious slant or bias?ConclusionConclude your report with a paragraph or two that covers these additional points. As you lead to your final paragraph, consider some additional impressions and opinions: ∙Was the ending satisfactory (for fiction)?∙Was the thesis supported by strong evidence (for non-fiction)?∙What interesting or notable facts do you know about the author?∙Would you recommend this book?Sample Book ReportTitle:American Dream VS Materialism in The Great GatsbyIntroduction:So many things have been said about the American Dream; so many people have struggled against themselves to prove that it does not only exist but can also be achieved. So many people worked hard and devoted their lives to this dream. Do we really and profoundly feel what it means, or do we keep following the stereotypes that we have created in our very own minds. To make a long story short –What is an American Dream? One of the most brilliant examples revealing a particular point of view on the matter is the outstanding work of Scott Fitzgerald “The Great Gatsby”. Fitzgerald shows how this dream is full of materialism, how materialism influencing the lives of people makes it hard for them so see the reality objectively. As the result of being so materialistic Fitzgerald’s characters start idealizing not only their way o f life but their feelings, too. Their existence seems to be a theatre performance, where the actors are obviously overacting.Body:Fitzgerald shares his determination of the “American dream” mainly through the character of Jay Gatsby. Being a man who shows through his own actions that success is his prerogative, he truly believes in the “American dream of success”. He is a man that gets whatever he wants and gets it primarily by the means of money. As Fitzgerald shows Gatsby’s life we see how easily he ca n change anything with the help of money if he wants to. Therefore we can assume that psychologically he is not ready to take things for what they are. We suppose that it is the reason for his idealization of love that later on lead to the collapse of his dream, the collapse of the American dream.Scott Fitzgerald shows the Gatsby’s encirclement and he shows the core of “the dream” through their desire to realize it. "Sure I did. I was going to wear it tonight, but it was too big in the bust and had to be altered. It was gas blue with lavender beads. Two hundred and sixty-five dollars." [Fitzgerald 36] – answers the girl after being simply asked by Nick Carraway if she had accepted a gift. The stress on materialism and mentioning money and material things wherever it is possible is a characteristical trait of people representing the era of Fitzgerald’s “American dream”.The question he asks is from out point of view a vital question concerning people trying to achieve it: Is this dream really worth of achieving on such almost impossible conditions? And therefore do we really need this kind of a dream? Gatsby’s life is actually going on in the past, though he lives in the present because everything he does is done to change it. Fitzgerald reveals to the reader that happiness is not a thing, which you can buy with money or handpick with power. His fulfillment of the requirements oh the “Dream” has come to such a point that between the lines the reader sees how desperate he is. So what is the American Dream that is criticized in the definition of Scott Fitzgerald? It is successful life and work through which people obtain the material acknowledgement of their success and become happy when they do. The problem is that having the person you “love” also start being a “material acknowledgement”, too.The essence of the book is that when the moral principles are low, people choose any means for achieving success and people are interested only in the result. The real understanding of the “American dream” is lost by the characters in this book and by this Fitzerald shows that there is no need for a dream like this. It is a dream with the same name, but with a different content. Having money is not a guarantee of true happiness. "Her voice is full of money [Fitzerald 102]," says Gatsby, “I can buy her,” means Fitzgerald. We want to conclude using the scene when Daisy does confess that she was the one driving the car and by this she signs Gatsby’s death penalty. She uses Gatsby and he is ready to put her guilt over his shoulders. This little scene shows how much is love and devotion valued and how responsible can these “American dream seekers” be.Conclusion:Success “against all odds” may not bring happiness but in the contrary it may bring even a greater pain and disappointment. What Fitzgerald believes is that the American dream has been corrupted by materialism, by the effort to substitute the true meaning of the dream with its fake understanding of people who lack morality. We support Scott Fitzgerald in his opinion. This dream will be not achievable as long as people do not stop garbling it. They need to start understanding the real value of the treasure that is so rare nowadays: dignity and forget about materialism.全文结束请添加参考书目,即你所阅读书籍的相关信息,如下例:Bibliography:F.

A Book Report of a Thousand Splendid SunsWenjing Shi Translation 152 1507042034Brief IntroductionA Thousand Splendid Suns is a 2007 novel by Afghan-American author Khaled Hosseini. It is his second, following his bestselling 2003 debut, The Kite Runner. Mariam is an illegitimate child, and suffers from both the stigma surrounding her birth along with the abuse she faces throughout her marriage. Laila, born a generation later, is comparatively privileged during her youth until their lives intersect and she is also forced to accept a marriage proposal from Rasheed, Mariam's husband.The author Hosseini has remarked that he regards the novel as a "mother-daughter story" in contrast to The Kite Runner, which he considers a "father-son story".It continues some of the themes used in his previous work, such as the familial aspects, but focuses primarily on female characters and their roles in Afghan society.The Author &BackgroundKhaled Hosseini ( born March 4, 1965) is an Afghan-born American novelist and physician. After graduating from college, he worked as a doctor in California, an occupation that he likened to "an arranged marriage". He has published three novels, most notably his 2003 debut The Kite Runner, all of which are at least partially set in Afghanistan and feature an Afghan as the protagonist. Following the success of The Kite Runner he retired from medicine to write full-time. Hosseini was born in Kabul, Afghanistan. His father worked as a diplomat, and when Hosseini was 11 years old, the family moved to France; four years later, they appliedThe novel centers around two women, Mariam and Laila, how their lives become intertwined after a series of drastic events, and their subsequent friendship and support for each other in the backdrop of Kabul in the 20th and 21st century. It is split into four parts that focus on individual stories: Part one is about Mariam, part two is on Laila, part three is on the relationship between the two women, and Laila's life with Tariq is in part four. The last section also happens to be the only part written in the present tense.Mariam lives in a kolba on the outskirts of Herat with her embittered mother. Jalil, her father, is a wealthy businessman who owns a cinema and lives in the town with three wives and nine children. Mariam is his illegitimate daughter,and she is prohibited to live with them, but Jalil visits her every Thursday. On her fifteenth birthday, Mariam wants her father to take her to see Pinocchio at his movie theater, against the pleas of her mother. When he does not show up, she hikes into town and goes to his house. He refuses to see her, and she ends up sleeping on the street. In the morning, Mariam returns home to find that her mother has committed suicide out of fear that her daughter had deserted her. Mariam is then taken to live in her father's house. Jalil arranges for her to be married to Rasheed, a shoemaker from Kabul who is thirty-years her senior. In Kabul, Mariam becomes pregnant seven successive times, but is never able to carry a child to term. This is a sad, disquieting reality for both Rasheed and Mariam. Ultimately Rasheed grows more and more despondent over his wife's inability to have a child and particularly a son. As their marriage wears on Rasheed gradually becomes more and more abusive.Part Two introduces Laila. She is a girl growing up in Kabul who is close friends with Tariq, a boy living in her neighborhood. They eventually develop a romantic relationship despite being aware of the social boundaries between men and women in Afghan society. War comes to Afghanistan, and Kabul is bombarded by rocket attacks. Tariq's family decides to leave the city, and the emotional farewell between Laila and Tariq culminates with them making love. Laila's family also decides to leave Kabul,but as they are packing a rocket destroys the house, killing her parents and severely injuring Laila. Laila is subsequently taken in by Rasheed and Mariam.After recovering from her injuries, Laila discovers that she is pregnant with Tariq's child. After being informed by Abdul Sharif that Tariq has died, she agrees to marry Rasheed, a man eager to have a young and attractive second wife in hopes of having a son with her. When Laila gives birth to a daughter, Aziza, Rasheed is displeased and suspicious. This results in him becoming abusive towards Laila. Mariam and Laila eventually become confidants and best friends. They plan to run away from Rasheed and leave Kabul but are caught at the bus station. Rasheed beats them and deprives them of water for several days, almost killing Aziza.A few years later, Laila gives birth to Zalmai, Rasheed's son. The Taliban has risen to power and imposed harsh rules on the Afghan population, prohibiting women from appearing in public without a male relative. There is a drought, and living conditions in Kabul become poor. Rasheed's workshop burns down, and he is forced to take jobs for which he is ill-suited. He sends Aziza to an orphanage. Laila endures a number of beatings from the Taliban when caught alone on the streets in attempts to visit her daughter.Then one day Tariq appears outside the house, and he and Laila are reunited. Laila realizes that Rasheed had hired Abdul Sharif to inform her about Tariq's fake death, so that he could marry her. When Rasheed returns home from work, Zalmai tells his father about the visitor. Rasheed starts to savagely beat Laila. He nearly strangles her, but Mariam intervenes and kills Rasheed with a shovel. Afterwards, Mariam confesses to killing Rasheed in order to draw attention away from Laila and Tariq. Mariam is publicly executed, allowing Laila and Tariq to leave for Pakistan with Aziza and Zalmai. They spend their days working at a guest house in Murree, a summer retreat.After the fall of the Taliban, Laila and Tariq return to Afghanistan. They stop in the village where Mariam was raised, and discover a package that Mariam's father leftStyle &TechniqueA Thousand Splendid Suns received significant praise from reviewers, with Publishers Weekly calling it "a powerful, harrowing depiction of Afghanistan" and USA Today describing the prose as "achingly beautiful".Lisa See of The New York Times attributed the book's success to Hosseini "understanding the power of emotion as few other popular writers do".Natasha Walter from The Guardian wrote, "Hosseini is skilled at telling a certain kind of story, in which events that may seem unbearable - violence, misery and abuse - are made readable. He doesn't gloss over the horrors his characters live through, but something about his direct, explanatory style and the sense that you are moving towards a redemptive ending makes the whole narrative, for all its tragedies, slip down rather easily."。

A model reportHere is a report written by a student in an introductory sociology source.A Report on I Know Why the Caged Bird SingsIn I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (New Y ork: Bantam Books, 1971), Maya Angelou tells the story of her earliest years. Angelou, a dancer, poet, and television producer as well as a writer, has continued her life story in three more volumes of autobiography. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings is the start of Maya Angelou’s story; in this book, she writes with crystal clarity abo ut the pains and joys of being black in America. (Introductory paragraph)(Part I: summary topic sentence for summary paragraph) I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings covers Maya Angelou’s life from age three to age sixteen. We first meet her as a gawky little g irl in a white woman’s cut-down lavender silk dress. She has forgotten the poem she had memorized for the Easter service, and all she can do is rush out of grandmother and uncle. The town is rigidly segregated: ―people in Stamps used to say that the whites in our town were so prejudiced that a Negro couldn’t buy vanilla ice cream‖ (40). Y et Angelou has some good things in her life: her adored older brother Bailey, her success in school, and her pride in her grandmother’s quiet strength and importance in the black community. There is laughter, too, as when a preacher is interrupted in midsermon by an overly enthusiastic woman shouting, ―Preach it, I say preach it!‖ The woman, in a frenzied rush of excitement, hits the preacher with her purse; his false teeth fly out of his mouth and land at Angelou’s feet. Shortly after this incident, Angelou and her brother are taken by her father to live in California with their mother. Here, at age eight, she is raped by her mother’s boyfriend, who is mysteriously murdered after receiving only a suspended sentence for his crime. She returns, silent and withdrawn, to Stamps, where the gloom is broken when a friend of her mother introduces her to the magic of great books. Later, at age thirteen, Angelou returns to California. She learns how to dance. She runs away after a violent family fight and lives for a month in a junkyard. She becomes the first black female to get a job on the San Francisco streetcars. She graduates from high school eight months pregnant. And she survives.(Part II: reaction topic sentence for first reaction paragraph)I was impressed with the vividness of Maya Angelou’s writing style. For example, she describes the lazy dullness of her life in Stamps: ―Weekdays revolved in a sameness wheel. They turned int o themselves so steadily and inevitably that each seemed to be the original of yesterday’s rough draft‖ (93). She also knows how to bring a scene to life, as when she describes her eighth-grade graduation. For months, she has been looking forward to this event, knowing she will be honored for her academic success. She is even happy with her appearance: her hair has become pretty, and her yellow dress is a miracle of hand-sewing. But the ceremony is spoiled when the speaker—a white man—implies that the only success available to blacks is in athletics. Angelou remembers: ―the man’s dead words fell like bricks around the auditorium and too many settled in my belly…. The proud graduating class of 1940 had dropped their heads‖ (152). Later, Angelou uses a crystal-clear image to describe her father’s mistress sewing: ―she worked the thread through the flowered cloth as if she were sewing the torn ends of her life together‖(208). With such vivid details and figures of speech, Maya Angelou re-creates her life for her readers.(Topic sentence for second reaction paragraph)I also reacted strongly to the descriptions of injustices suffered by blacks two generations ago. I was as horrified as the seven-year-old Maya when some ―powhitetrash‖ girls torment her dignified grandmother, calling her ―Annie‖ and mimicking her mannerisms. In another incident, Mrs. Cullina, Angelou’s white employer, decidesthat Margurite (Angelou’s real name) is too difficult to pronounce and so renames her Mary. This loss of her name –a ―hellish horror‖(91)—is another humiliation suffered at white hands, and Angelou leaves Mrs. Cullinan’s employ soon afterward. Later, Angelou encounters overt discrimination when a white dentist tells her grandmother, ―Annie, my policy is I’d rather stick my hand i n a dog’s mouth than in a nigger’s‖(160)—and only slightly less obvious prejudice when the streetcar company refuses to accept her application for a conductor’s job. We see Angelou over and over as the victim of a white society.(Topic sentence for third reaction paragraph)Although I was saddened to read about the injustices, I rejoiced in Angelou’s triumphs. Angelou is thrilled when she hears the radio broadcast of Joe Louis’s victory over Primo Carnera: ―A Black boy. Some Black mother’s son. He was the st rongest man in the world‖ (114). She weeps with pride when the class valedictorian leads her and her fellow eighth-graders in singing the Negro National Anthem. And there are personal victories, too. One of these comes after her father has gotten drunk in a small Mexican town. Though she has never driven before, she manages to get her father into the car and drives fifty miles through the night as he lies intoxicated in the backseat. Finally, she rejoices in the birth of her son: ―He was beautiful and mine.Totally mine. No one had bought him for me‖ (245). Angelou shows us, through these examples, that she is proud of her race—and of herself.(Concluding paragraph) I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings is a remarkable book. Angelou could have been just another casualty of race prejudice. Y et by using her intelligence, sensitivity, and determination, she succeeds in spite of the odds against her. And by writing with such power, she lets us share her defeats and joys. She also teaches us a vital lesson: with strength and persistence, we can all escape our cages—and sing our songs.。

小王子bookreport范文第1篇有人说爱是心心念念,青丝相依;是朝朝暮暮,白首相偎;也有人说,爱是想要触碰却又收回的手;还有人说,爱是仰慕明月,却将六便士踩在脚下的取舍。

而《小王子》中的爱,是收获,亦是付出。

“是你为你的玫瑰花费时间,才使你的玫瑰变得如此重要。

”对于玫瑰的虚荣多疑和无理取闹,小王子愿意满怀热情尽心尽力地照顾她,陪伴她,玫瑰想吃早点,小王子立马拿着喷壶,打来一壶清清的凉水,轻轻的浇灌着她,玫瑰过于娇弱,畏风畏寒,小王子就去准备玻璃罩和屏风,带给玫瑰被爱的温暖,玫瑰赶小王子走,他仍不放心认真地打扫火山,拔光猴面包树苗,才依依不舍地离开。

小王子虽然早已看出玫瑰的傲娇,但是依旧忍不住为她心动,其实玫瑰并没有心安理得地享受着小王子付出的一切,对于他的辛劳,她同样投之以木桃,报之以琼瑶。

她让B612号星球美不胜收,芳香四溢,使小王子的生活充满芳香与色彩,她那小小的诡计背后所隐藏的却是一片柔情。

“那么,你什么也没有得到。

”“我得到了,还有麦子的颜色呢。

”小王子是从智慧的狐狸那得知什么是爱的,小王子也使狐狸原本的枯燥生活变得不同,它金黄色的头发使狐狸对麦田有了新的记忆,麦子的颜色和穿行麦浪的风声也因此而变得妙不可言,狐狸重新爱上了生活。

可是不是所有人收获了爱,就会付出爱,朱安一生坚守,把自己放低到“大先生”鲁迅的尘埃里,却始终没有开出花,张幼仪半生奉献,上孝公婆,下育双子,踏踏实实做妻,却没有等到徐志摩一首风花雪月的诗。

常有人感叹人心凉薄,世上无真爱,我想这也许就是不懂爱的表现,毕竟鲁迅与许广平,徐志摩与陆小曼,似乎都如愿以偿,却都没有美好的结局,这不是人与人之间的感情消失,而是个人没有参透爱的本质。

所有人都想被爱,可不是所有人都愿意为爱付出时间与精力,我不禁心生疑问,如果人人都只想收获爱而不想付出爱,那么这世界上还会再有真爱吗?宫崎骏曾在千与千寻中说到:“请记得那些对你好的人,因为他本可以不这样。

A book report about Wuthering HeightsWuthering Heights,the only fiction of Emily Bronte, was publishedin 1847. It is a story about love and revenge. After finishing the novel, most people including me would appreciate Heathcliff for his pure, simple and untamed love which would never change until death. On the other hand,it is difficult to understand his abnormal, callous and his love for Catherine. He was an illiberal and unscrupulous person. He loved Catherine and was willing to give up everything for her. In the north of England where the wind blew hard, the black and dirty child, Heathcliff, fell in love with a little girl, Catherine who gave him love and also misery.Wuthering Heights is an ideal heaven for those misanthropists to escape from the real life. In this beautiful but desolate world, Heathcliff as a stranger appeared. When he was 6 or 7 years old and at the edge of starving, Mr. Earnshaw, the owner of wuthering heights, saved him. Heathcliff’s childhood was unfortunate. Before he came to the wuthering heights, he was almost dead. When he was at Mr. Earnshaw’s home, he was bullied and maltreat by Mr. Earnshaw’s son, Hindley Earnshaw. However, at that moment, Catherine Earnshaw saved him, and everything became different. Catherine was a crazy and wild girl. The writer described as follows: “Her spirits were always at high-water mark, her tongue always going--singing, laughing, and plaguing everybody who would not do the same. A wild, wicked slip she was.” However, she was goodness and pretty. The relationship between them was developing under the lackof civilized education. Their life was tightly held together, they hadto face Hindley. But their friendship broke when Catherine was 12 years old, when she met Edgar Linton a wealthy and handsome boy from Thrushcross Grange. Three years later, she agreed to marry Edger. In Heathcliff’s mind, it was Edgar who bore away his love. Thus, when he came back to wuthering heights and began his cruel revenge.Catherine lost her childhood at the time when she started to consider her future. She totally knew that it was impossible to be together with Heathcliff. She had to find the future, a wealthy, handsome husband who could give her steady life and reputation while Heathcliff had nothing. But when she married Edgar, she didn’t feel happy at all. She remembered that she had betrayed Heathcliff and herself. Money and house brought her into nothingness. She began to cherish the memory of Heathcliff, cherished the little boy stood by her. There was no etiquette and standard but sincerity. In the wuthering heights, happiness was gone forever. Becauseof Hindley, Heathcliff lost the chance to learn and he was almost lost himself. Fortunately, Catherine did not give up him. He abandoned himself for his self-abased. In their love, even at that storming night,Heathcliff left. They never thought about their future, their life. Thus, shall we ask that love should be based on what? Catherine loved Edgar, but she also said to Nelly:” you think me a selfish wretch; but did it never strike you that if Heathcliff and I married, we should be beggars? whereas, if I marry Linton, I can aid Heathcliff to rise, and place him out of my brother's power.” Before the difficulty, she chose to confront. On the contrary, Heathcliff chose to escape, because he had no courage to overcome it. Catherine was 15 while Heathcliff was 16, they were children. They didn’t understand what love was. They just found the happiness they had in common.We can suppose that if Heathcliff didn’t leave, and he lived with Catherine, were they happy? Were they at ease? What life did they live? Can they run crazily on the wild land? Catherine looked down upon Heathcliff’s cowardice, once she talked about Heathcliff to Isabella: “Tell her what Heathcliff is: an unreclaimed creature, without refinement, without cultivation: an arid wilderness of furze and whinstone. But she had never suspected her courage.” She loved Heathcliff undoubtedly, but she was afraid to be with him. Heathcliff had questioned her:” You teach me now how cruel you've been--cruel and false. Why did you despise me? Why did you betray your own heart, Catherine?” If they loved each other, why did cheat their heart? Compared with Catherine, is Heathcliff more forgivable for his insistence and self-abased?In the end, Catherine died. She was 19, and Heathcliff was 20. However, the story was not end. After Catherine’s death, Heathcliff was not likable. His maniac revenge seemed no endless. He even took vengeance on their children. Is this love? Is this resentment? Did Heathcliff love Catherine more or he hate the world more? What did he revenge for? Does for Catherine or him? They tortured each other, but they still loved each other. We can’t find out the answer. But we can know that at last, they finally stayed with each other and no one can take them apart. “And if she had been dissolved into earth, or worse, what would you have dreamt of then?' I said. ——Of dissolving with her, and being more happy still!' he answered.” No matter how much misunderstanding, regret and pain they received before, now they rest in peace. Just like Catherine said:”Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same”。

Alexandre Dumas Pere, simplified by Micle Wester, and was published by Shanghai Translation Press in 1983.The story is set in the 17th century in Holland when fierce political conflicts prevailed while the society rioted.In this story, Cornelius Van Baerle being so crazy about tulips tries to grow a black tulip without any other color on it at all in order to gain quite a substantial sum of money offered to the winner.However, Boxtel, a man living in the next door, also has a crush on the money.He then supervises every movement of Cornelius secretly for fear that Cornelius may grow better tulips than his own.Besides this, he also carries out many surreptitious activities to destroy Cornelius’ tulips by all means.Once a while, he accuses Cornelius of harbouring letters that might be harmful to the government so that Cornelius is sent to the prison without giving provocation.This nearly causes him to death.Even here, Cornelius manages to grow tulips with the help of Rosa, the daughter of the prison-keeper.But unfortunately, their first black tulip is stolen by Boxtel.It’s Rosa who proves the truth and s avesCoenelius by herself!It’s a happy ending in this novel as it says “Those who have suffered much, have a right to be happy.” This quotation brings the whole story to an end and will certainly motivate readers to go on.Rosa herself will remain as quite a good example, too.Besides, “justice could defeat evil however difficult it is and whatever the process would be” can be easily seen as the author’s deep philosophy towards life.By reading it, the reader can both enjoy the plots and be stimulated!Sample 2A Book Report of The Black TulipBy Huang Xin, Talents Class, 2006 I have recently read the simplified version of The Black Tulip published by Shanghai Translation Press.This novel was written by the distinguished French writer Alexandre Dumas Pere, the pioneer of the Romanticism Literature Movement in France.He was so popular that his works had been translated into several languages and welcomed by readers all over the world.This novel took 17th century Dutch bourgeois revolutionary period of intense political struggle and the turbulent life as its background.This gist of the story is as follows.The leading role Cornelius is a young doctor who completely doesn’t inquire about politics.He loves growing tulips and is trying to cultivate a black tulip without any other color on it at all.In order to obtain the considerable bonus offered by the government to the first man who cultivates the very kind of black tulip, Boxtel, Cornelius’ neighbor, tries to destroy and steal the bulbs of Cornelius, even kill him.Fortunately, Cornelius in the prison gets acquainted with the prison-keeper’s daughter Rosa and they fall in love.Under Rosa’s help, Cornelius realized his dream and achieves happiness at last.It’s firmly believed by some people that when you become rich and successful,happiness will naturally follow.After reading this novel, I believe that nothing is further from the truth.To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work, in your contribution towards others’ happiness and in your wealth you have earned through your own honest efforts.Firstly, in order to obtain happiness, you should achieve your successful work, in order to achieve your successful work, you should go through thick and thin.As the writer said, “those who have suffered much, h ave a right to be happy.” Take the two leading characters for example.They eventually reach happiness after suffering a lot both psychologically and physiologically.Secondly, your happiness should live in your contribution towards others’ happiness, but no t on the contrary, in destroying others’ happiness.If you get your happiness by taking advantage of others or by hurting others, you won’t be happy with it for long, at least, you won’t enjoy the real happiness.People will think you’re a mean person.Boxtel was a typical case.He would never gain happiness.Thirdly, wealth obtained through dishonest means doesn’t bring happiness.Happiness is not an end, it is a process.It’s a continuous process of honest and productive work which makes a real contribution to others and makes you feel you are a useful and worthy person.Sample 3A Book Report of Thirty-Nine StepsBy Ding Xiaobiao, Class 1, 2005 The book I read is an abbreviated version of John Buchan’s Thirty-Nine Steps, which was published in 2004 for a second time by Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press.John Buchan, a Scotish writer and politician, had written lots of adventurous novels during his lifetime.And the Thirty-Nine Steps, written in 1915, is one of his most popular novels.The adventurous story took place on the eveof the First World War.An Englishman called Richard Hannay accidentally got a piece of information that a group of German spies plan to murder the Greek Prime Minister and steal the English military secrets so as to stir up a world war.Leaving aside his own safety and danger, our witty leading role socialized with the sly German spies bravely.After going through all kinds of hardships, he finally conveyed the information to the Foreign Secretary.He shattered the German spies’ intrigue in the end.What was written in the little black notebook? Who was the mysterious Black Stone described in the notebook? Which thirty-nine steps were of great importance? Through reading the book, you will find out how our hero searched for the answers to those confusions.I am deeply touched by our hero’s determination to defense his motherland.Believe it or not, my heart jumped violently when the hero was in danger and felt released when everything went on smoothly.This book is written very well for its de tails are described lively.What’s more, it also teaches us a lesson that all of us could do our little bit to contribute to our motherland especially when she is in great trouble.So, enjoy it while reading!Sample 4 A Book Report of Tom Brown’s SchooldaysB y You Meizhou, Class 1, Grade 2006 Tom Brown’s Schooldays is a simplified version which is written by Michael Wister.And the original work is by Thomas Hughes who was born in Berkshire in the south of England.He was not only a writer, but also a politician and reformer.T om Brown’s Schooldays was published by Shanghai Translation Press in 1857.It was Thomas’ first work and also his most influential work.It is famous in England as well as in America.The simplified version has totally 128 pages and it is sold at RMB¥5.8.Tom Brown’s Schooldayswas set on the eve of the Queen Victoria time.It showed how students felt through the vivid narration of Tom’s and some other students’ life in the Rugby school and the school environment..Rugby was one of the most influential schools at that time.But the public schools were under bad government.In the school, there was a good deal of bullying, physically punishing students and also quarrels between teachers.The teacher-student relationship was intensive.People thought masters and boys were natural enemies.But after some significant reforms on the school teaching methods by the master Thomas Arnold, the school appeared a new look.It was under such surroundings that leading role Tom was educated and grew up.At first T om feared the master, but when he knew how anxiously and carefully the master had watched over these students’ lives he looked upon him with love and respect and thought of him as a very wise and good man.As the book said, “Now Tom’s faith was complete, and if nex t term the Doctor had stopped all football ad cricket and fagging, Tom would have supported him with all his faith.”So when T om learnt the news of the Dr.Arnold’s death, he seemed to have lost the center point of his world.We can see how much Tom loved and respected him.And this reminds me of the book Harry Potter.Harry had the same feeling as Tom when he watched his old master killed by the enemies.Harry Potter is one of the books I love most.So when I saw some similarities with Harry Potter in this book, something drove me to read on.And in Tom’s school there were some activities also reminding me of the book Harry Potter.The book interests me in some things more, such as the boys’ catching birds, fishing.This shows me the beautiful life they lived and this is what I look forward to.Sample5 A Book Report of Thirty-nine StepsBy Lin Chengyan, Class 3, Grade 2007 The book Thirty-nine Steps is written by John Buchan.This simplified version is adapted by Roland John.Its publisher is Beijing Foreign Language University.It tells an adventure story.The gist of the story is as follows.Before the World War I breaks out, a British Richard Hannay happens to get the secrecy that the German spies plan to kill the Greek Prime Minister on June 15th in order to cause the world war with this excuse from an American reporter Scudder.He runs the risk of handing the information to the Foreign Officer in time through thick and thin.And then he does the London police a favor to catch the members of the Black Stone.It’s such a we ll-done book that I like it very much.The story is so exciting that it catches my attention all the time.I’m holding my breath every moment Hannay faces with danger and is nearly caught by the enemies.The plots change so naturally and the words seem to be attractive.There’s growing a great respect to Hannay from the bottom of my heart.He has a strong personality.He could have lived a comfortable life in London without hardship.And he doesn’t know Scudder very well, but he likes him.He also enjoyed an adventure.His most important valuable personality is that he loves peace so much.In order to create a happy life for the people all over the world, he gave up his own happiness to run a risk of handing the information.I can also learn that he is an unselfish man.While reading this book, I realize that Hannay is a person of intelligence.To my surprise, he figures out what the letters mean in Scudder’s notebook.He learns that the 39 steps points out that the Black Stone lives in somewhere by the sea.He always manages to escape.It shows that Hannay also has great courage in disguising as the Fishmanand some other persons.No matter how dangerous it was, he never gave up.However, history has its own regularity.Although Hannay tries his best to avoid the War from breaking out, it took place a few months later.Sample 6 A Book Report of Tom Brown’s SchooldaysBy Chen Yixian, Class 4, Grade 2007 Tom Brown’s Schooldays is the first but the most influential work of Tomas Hughs.It became popular once it was published.Here, I’d like to present you its abridged version, which is adapted by Yao Tiancheng.It has a total of 133 pages and a rather low price of RMB¥5.8.The abridged version was first published in 1983 and then reprinted in 2000 by Shanghai Translation Press.Tom Brown’s Schooldays is really a nice book for us teenagers.It’s set in Rugby, the then famous public school.The story is based on the author’s own experience in his early study age.It portrays the growth of T om Brown, the leading character, and his friends East and Arthur.At that time there was a bad atmosphere in Rugby that the big boys would make the pupils in lower forms do the fagging for them.Tom showed a sense of justice and courage to fight against the bullies.On the other hand, Tom was immature to regard it as a pleasure to do what he was told not to do.It was Arthur, a little boy, that made Tom change so much.Arthur was weak in body but strong in mind.His influence on Tom was gradual but great.Despite that East shared much in common with Tom.Arthur did become a friend, even a teacher to Tom.With the help of each other, the three finally became more of a man.In a wor d, Tom Brown’s schooldays is a book worth reading.When you page through the book, you may find you’re looking back upon your own childhood.So how are you still wasting your time now? Go and get one!Sample 7 A Book Reportof Tom Brown’s SchooldaysBy Shen Yue, Class 7, Grade 2007 Recently I read a book with the title Tom Brown’s Schooldays written by Tomas Hughs, who is a British writer, reformer and politician.His other works, such as Tom Brown at Oxford, A Life of Alfred the Great and Scouring of the White Horse, are all very famous.Of all these books, T om Brown’s Schooldays is the maiden and most successful one.Since published in 1857, it has become popular with youngsters.T om Brown’s Schooldays is a biography of Tom Brown.It was set in the context of the author’s schooldays in Rugby.By describing the study lives of Tom and his friends, the book acquaints us the then situations of Rugby school and thoughts of students there.Rugby school was the most influential public school at that time.However, it wasn’t in good order.As old Brooke, captain of the School House side when Tom was just a new boy, had said, “ there is a good deal of bullying.” What’s more, “masters and boys are natural enemies.” Teachers there never treated students well, except the Doctor, Tomas Arnold.He reformed principles of the school and thereby had an important influence on the practice of British education.He watched over boys’ lives anxiously and carefully.In turn, he won Tom’s honour and love.In such surroundings, Tom “opened his eyes to see the joy and beauty of life and had softened his heart to feel the fellowship of all living souls.”The characterizations in this book are skillful.There are many subtleties worth attention.For instance, when Arnold died, Tom came back to Rugby.Through characterizing his reaction, complexion, action, psychology and words, this book presented Tom with real emotions at that news wonderfully.“ If only he could see the Doctor there for five minutes, and tell him what wasin his heart, how much he loved a nd respected him.” Tom Brown’s Schooldays focused on T om’s growth.The part related to the Doctor didn’t make up a larger percentage.Instead, the author paid much attention to the contradictions between schoolboys.Nevertheless, it didn’t weaken the theme.On the contrary, it made the theme more outstanding.That’s what we should learn from this book.I appreciate this book.I’d like to recommend it to learners at my level.It is not too difficult, so we can get the ideas easily and learn something about the autho r’s writing skills at the same time.It is really worth reading.***纸张;格式;不是要求的书;语法(write, begin, read);态度;字数The number of pages is 134/It has 134 pages in all/in total/There

Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne Jules Verne (1828-1905), the author of Around the World in Eighty Days, Was Born in Nantes, France. He had an innate love for the sea and for travel and adventure when he was a child. Later, he devoted himself to literature and wrote several scientific romances, which gained him the name—Father of Modern Science Fiction.
Verne’s novels are usually full of scientific facts and details and they pleased the public fascinated by all the scientific developments of the nineteenth century. They foretell with uncanny accuracy the inventions and advanced technology of the twentieth century, and have become the literary stepping-stone for generations of science fiction writers. Verne’s story Five Weeks in a Balloon (1863) brought him his first success. The following year, he published Journey to the Center of the Earth, which also made a great hit. After that, A trip to the Moon (1865), 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea(1870), and The
Mysterious Island(1875), were turned out one after another and they brought Verne worldwide popularity.
Verne’s heroes are always those who risk their lives for scientific research and progress, and they have a great influence on the readers. For the first time, people began to believe that journeys into space or under the sea might really be possible. Many even tried to bring that day nearer by their own efforts. Jules Verne inspired a whole generation of scientists and he probably traveled more widely in his imagination than any other writer. This we can see quite clearly in Around the World in Eighty Days (1873).
This is a book of science fiction which tells us an exciting story about an English gentleman, Mr. Phileas Fogg, who makes a bet with his club-mates and manages to travel around the world in eighty days. It gives us a vivid description of the many difficulties and incidents which happen on his journey. Mr. Fogg and his servant Passepartout start their journey from London and travel eastward. Mr. Fox, a detective, who is investigating a bank robbery case, suspects Mr. Fogg of being the robber and follows him all through the journey in an attempt to arrest him as soon as he gets the warrant. So Mr. Fogg, a man with courage and intelligence, tries to deal with all the troubles caused by Mr.
Fox, and in the meantime, manages to overcome the difficulties on his way, such as missing a train or a steamboat, being caught in a storm on the sea, attacks by the Indians, etc. With the help of his servant, Mr. Fogg saves an Indian woman Aouda, who would otherwise become a victim of the “Suttee”. The story ends happily with Mr. Fogg winning the bet and his marriage with Aouda.
From this story, we can see the author’s deep love for the sea, travel and adventure, which played and important role in his life. We are also astonished and convinced by his fertile imagination and scientific and geographical knowledge.
The story is so well-knit and fascination that the reader cannot put down the book before he finishes reading it. Though the book is full of scientific facts and details, the reader does not feel bored or confused at all, for in it profound truths are explained in simple language with accuracy and clarity. By reading his novels, the reader can both enjoy himself and obtain knowledge. And that is why, perhaps, that Verne’s novels have won great popularity all over the world ever since they were published.。
