My Uncle John used to live in a beautiful little house by the sea in Hong Kong．He was killed two years ago．Uncle John wrote novels and made a lot of money．

He used to work in a big room with the beautiful scenery of the sea．On his desk there was a huge computer．Uncle John loved this machine, and he had used it for about ten years．“I couldn’t work without this old friend,” he used to say．Uncle John’s books were all detective(偵探)novels．So, when he was found in his room one morning with a bullet (子彈)in his head, it seemed just like one of his own novels．After Uncle John’s death, I came to stay in his house to do something for the funeral (葬禮)．

I had been there for two days when 1 noticed a message on the screen of the old computer．I was very surprised, because I thought the computer had been turned off．The message said, “You have a new e--mail!” When I read it, I thought it looked like the beginning of a novel．It must be from one of Uncle John’s novelist friends．I decided I should reply to the e-mail to tell him or her that Uncle John was dead．However, the computer told me, “Invalid(無(wú)效) Address”．Every day for the next three weeks, more e-mails kept arriving．The story was about Jane Pendle, a young writer working on her first novel．

She sent her novel to lack Tanner, an older writer, and asked him to help her publish(出版)it．However, he published the novel himself and told others that he had written it．The novel was very successful．Tanner made a lot of money, and bought himself a house by the sea in Hong Kong．Then I realized “Jack Tanner” and “Jane Pendle” weren’t their real names, “Jack” was meant to be Uncle John．Three weeks later, I received the last one．It described how, after many years, Jane came to Jack’s house, they quarreled, and she pulled out a gun(槍) and shot him．

I did not know what to do with this story．Should I show it to the police or not? If it was true, it might help the police catch Uncle John’s killer．However, it also showed that Uncle John himself was a thief．

Don’t argue (爭(zhēng)辯)with your parents．Don’t get to your parents when you are angry．Your parents probably won’t consider your idea．If you are shouting at them, and you can’t express yourself well if you are angry．Go some place to cool off．Make sure you understand why you are unhappy．Then think about what you want to say to your parents, if you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter．

      Try to reach a compromise (和解)．Perhaps yon and your parents disagree on something．You can keep your disagree and try your best to accept each other．Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle．They argued over it．But they finally came to a compromise．Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days．

Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something．In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them．Showing respect will keep your relationship strong．

Talk about your values．The values of yours parents are probably different first those of your own Tell your Parents what you care about and why．Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life．

My favorite great book is The Adventures of Tom Sawyers by Mark Twain．Tom lives with his aunt Polly in a quiet street of St Petersburg, Missouri．He’s a lively and clever young boy, and he finds himself in many exciting adventures (冒險(xiǎn))．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．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．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．

The theme of the story is about children growing up．It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America．Finally, it talks about freedom, social rules and how people are punished (懲罰)for bad behavior．

Why do I think The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark Twain wrote the starry in 1876, but it’s still read anti 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．
