My favorite great book is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer（套姆索耶歷險記）by Mark Twain．Tom lives with his aunt Polly in a quiet street．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．

    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 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（懲制）for bad behavior．

    Who do I think The Adventure of Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876，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．

One thing that British and Chinese cultures share is a love for fine tea．Today，when we think of Western tea culture，we often think of the English and beautiful china tea cups．People believe that an English lady．Anna．first introduced the idea of“Afternoon tea”．In the 18th and 19th centuries，the English ate only two main meals each day--breakfast and a heavy supper that would last for several hours in the evening．As a result，people often got very hungry during the long wait between these two meals．To solve this problem，Anna invited some friends to join her for an afternoon meal between four and five o’clock．This meal included cakes and sandwiches，and tea was served to wash down the food．In order to make this afternoon meal important，fine china cups and plates，silver teapots，knives，forks and spoons were used．Soon，afternoon tea parties became popular．

    Today，afternoon tea parties continue to play an important part in the social life in modem Britain．

   Coffee also has an important role in British culture．People often use “Will you come for coffee?”to mean“Would you like to come to my home or a chat?”Normally，several drinks such as tea．hot chocolate or a soft drink like orange juice will be served as well as coffee，And you will be asked what you would like．However，you will not be offered wine at a“coffee”party．
