Book Review:

EMMA, by Jane Austen

     This week I read EMMA. Emma Woodhouse is a beautiful and witty woman.  After my mother passed away and her sister got married and left the house, she lives with her father.

 Ana Taylor, a 16-year-old Woodhouse tutor, married Weston.  Emma introduced Tailor to Weston and learns that she is a mediator of love.  Emma tries to connect her younger friend Harriet Smith with pastor Elton, but the plan fails because Elton knows that she is trying to get married.

 Frank Churchill, the child of Weston's ex-wife, and Jane Fairfax, the nephew of Bates, the neighbor of the Woodhouse family, will appear.  Emma had a good feeling for Churchill, but Jane doesn't fit the horse.  Emma tries to connect Churchill and Harriet this time, but Emma insults Miss Bates and is tanned by Nightly and recognizes her faults.

 Harriet was first joined with Robert Martin, who refused to marry in Emma's opinion, and Emma marries Knightley.

I will introduce one quote from this book.
The quote is “Dear Emma, time will help you forgot him,’he said,’and he will soon gone.(p.49)
This is kind advice. I have boyfriend so I may break up someday.
When the time, I will remember this advice.

London by JOHN ESCOTT

 This week I read London by John Escott. It describes the history of London, the famous building, and the royal family.  As I read on, I wanted to go to London. Here are some things that interest me. The first is the Great Fire of London. A pandemic in London in 1665 killed more than 100,000 people. The following year, in 1666, the Great Fire of London broke out. At that time, most of the houses were made of wood, so the city was burned down. The fire did not go out for four days. Most of the old buildings were destroyed. I didn't know this big incident. London, which is now one of the most famous cities in the world, suffered such damage about 350 years ago. I think it was difficult to build the current magnificent buildings and cityscape from there.  Next is the national portrait gallery. It's located in St Martin, where you can see pictures of famous people. There are pictures of world-famous figures such as kings, queens, and William Shakespeare. I want to see it. I will be

The Tickets

Title:The Tickets FRL 16pages This is the story about misunderstanding. Jimmy who sees Jenny's ticket in Kerry's purse gets angry with Kerry. Jimmy says, "But you're not a good friend"(p. 14)  Kerry was going to return the ticket to Jenny. Jimmy suspected Kerry,and doubted too. I think it is not good to doubt without knowing anything. I believe it is important to trust each other in order to keep a good relationship.

ONE-WAY TICKET SHORT STORIES by Jennifer Bassett

      This week I read "One-Way Ticket" by Jennifer Bassett.   There are several short stories in this book, and I will introduce one of them.  "The Girl with Green Eyes" describes what passengers talk about on the train.   There were seven people in the carriage. There was the man in the brown hat; the young man and his wife, Julie; a mother and two children; and a tall dark man in an expensive suit.  There are many expressions about the eyes in this story. The conversations of the passengers were normal and not particularly interesting, but the explanation of the eyes made it interesting to see what they were thinking. I quote one sentence. These are the words that the mothers of the children in this story said. ‘People don’t always need words, young man,’ This word was very impressive. I recommend this book. The reason is that different readers enjoy this story differently. I enjoyed the depiction of the eyes, but others may enjoy their conversation. Please read
