1．One of my favorite great books is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer，by Mark Twain.The story is set in the town of St Petersburg Missouri，in the US，in the nineteenth century.It tells some exciting stories about a boy who has many adventures.
    Tom，the hero of the book，lives with his aunt Polly.He is a lively and clever boy.He does not like people telling him what to do，so he always gets into trouble.He and his best friend，Huck Finn，run away to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River.Tom has more trouble because a bad man named Injun Joe is looking for him.Later，Tom escaped from a cave with another friend，Becky.He also finds Injun Joe's treasure box and takes it away.
    My favorite part of the book is when Tom and Huck start their adventure on the island in the Mississippi River.At first，they are happy.But when they hear that everyone thinks they are dead，they feel very sorry，so they come back home.They hide and watch for a time when they see their family and neighbors coming to their funeral in the church.Then，Tom and Huck suddenly appear.Everyone is surprised to see them at first，but very pleased to find that they are alive.
    The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a great book.It is more than an adventure story.Mark Twain wrote it in 1876.It describes people's lives in the southern states of America at that time.It tells how young people grow，how people love each other and how bad people pay for their actions.It is written in everyday English，and the dialogues sound especially real.現(xiàn)在它仍然被世界各地的人閱讀和喜愛(ài)，and it is thought to be one of the greatest American stories.

2．Young people and older people do not always agree.They sometimes have different ideas about living.working and playing.But in one special program in New York State，adults and teenagers live together in a friendly way.
   Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work group.Everyone works several hours each day.They do so not just to keep busy but to find meaning and enjoyment in work.Some teenagers work in the woods or on the farms near the village.Some learn to make things like table sand chairs and build houses.The adults teach them these skills.
   There are several free hours each day.Weekends are free，too.During the free hours some of the teenagers learn photo taking or painting.Others sit around and talk or sing.
   In this program the teenagers and the adults make the rules together.If someone breaks a rule，the problem goes before the whole group.They talk about it and ask. "Why did it happen？What should we do about it？ "
