Mark Twain ~ The Adventure of Tom Sawyer

This~
is a book i borrowed from library.....



i not finish it yet..
but till now~~
it quite interesting !!!
it was about a boy --Tom..
he want FREEDOM..
and he likes adventure!!! such as he went to the graveyard at midnight.

I think they like apple very much because they eat apple whenever they are working. When Tom finished the job that given by his aunt, his aunt will reward him an apple too~

I found an expressive sentence~
"...There were some lumps of earth near at hand, and soon the air was full of them. ...."
It means melancholy.

This is the sentense I learn!!!
"swear they will keep quiet about this and they wish they may drop down dead and rot if they ever tell."


And~ I learnt new words
1.  fist(n)拳头;笔迹
2. straightened(v)弄直;矫正
3. spades(n)铲子
4. grunting(v)哼;不满之声
5. pricked(v)刺;穿;受责备
6. initials(adj)最初的;开头的
7. howling(adj)咆哮的;哭哭啼啼的;寂寥的
