I will finish my chosen book-Pride and Prejudice after the last three chapters to be seen.

Jane was invited by her uncle and aunt to London, where now Mr. Bingley is in. unfortunately, this trip to London didn't bring happiness to her but gave her a strike that Mr. Bingley might not be in love with her anymore. Elizabeth wasn't in home during this period, too. She went with Sir William Lucas and Maria to visit Hunsford. In there, she met an incredible thing that Mr. Darcy proposed to her. Elizabeth refused his proposal and got angry with Mr. Darcy because he despised her family. Both they were angry finally, but by this conflict, they knew each other more.

The next time they met was in Mr. Darcy's house-Pemberley after a few months. They were embarrassed to talk. But now, Mr. Darcy got rid of pride to Elizabeth and Elizabeth got rid of prejudice to Mr. Darcy. At this moment, Elizabeth received a bad news from home.

Though I didn't know the ending, I thought I could guess some of it.

This two weeks I have read nearly half of my chosen book – Pride And Prejudice. There were too many different names in the book, making me confused. I had to write down those names in the space of book and analyse their relationship, so that I could read it more unhinderedly. And on the last page were a glossary which helped me a lot in reading. By using it, I haven't to consult the word I didn't know by dictionary and waste time.

The story began on the newcomers in the village of Longbourn. Mr. Bingley, one of the newcomers, was very handsome and rich, falling in love with Jane at the ball when they first met. Jane was one of the Bennet's daughters and she was good-natured and beautiful. On the other hand, Jane's sister, Elizabeth, decided to hate Mr. Darcy who was Mr. Bingley's friend at the same ball. Elizabeth disliked Mr. Darcy's pride and Mr. Darcy thought Elizabeth not as pretty as her sister. As time went on, Mr. Darcy was gradually appealed by Elizabeth's clever, though Elizabeth still believed him an arrogant guy.

One day, Jane received a letter from Mr. Bingley's sister, saying that both them and Mr. Darcy were going to stay in London and won't be back. This terrible news made Jane heartbroken. Elizabeth had noting to do but encouraged her sister that this bad plan must be thought by Mr. Darcy, not Mr. Bingley.

This week I started to read my new chosen book – Pride and Prejudice. I bought it when I was in senior high, but I didn't have chance to open it until this time. This book was written by Jane Austen in 1797, retold by Margaret Tarner and published by Macmillan Heinemann ELT.

I have read Pride and Prejudice in version of Chinese in my childhood. It was long time ago for me to read it, so I couldn't remember most of its detail clearly. It was really a classic book which worth reading again and again. And its dictum from the begin of the story," everyone knows that a rich, unmarried man needs a pretty wife" was famous all over world. That the reason why I chose this book.

Pride and Prejudice was also produced a film in 2006. KeiraKnightley portrayaled the heroine, Elizabeth Bennent. The story was about the five daughters of the Bennent family who are looking forward to be able to unite by marriage with rich and prestigious families under their mother's arrangement.

This two weeks I finally finished my chosen book – Charlotte's Web. The ending was just like what I predicted, but even more loving and happier.

Thanks to friends' help, the pig, Wilbur, eventually won the medal in the fair, which could protect him from being killed as ham or bacon. The honor of triumph brought joy to everyone there. The moment Wilbur enjoyed in the glory, the spider, Charlotte, told him a bad news that she was going to die. What a sudden strike to Wilbur. By reading here, I was sad to cry. Wilbur was going to lose his best friend, such a kind friend. Though I'm afraid of spiders, I do like Charlotte. Charlotte was too weak to travel home with everybody. The only thing Wilbur could do was that bring Charlotte's egg sac home, taking care of them.

Wilbur leaded a wonderful time in winter when he should have been killed. Now, spring was coming and dozens of baby spiders crawled from the sac. They were excited to see their mother's best friend. But most of them didn't want to live in the pigpen. They traveled to another place by using their silk to form a balloon and flew by wind. I doubt weather spiders can really use silk to form balloons. If it is real, it's magical. There were three spiders left to company with Wilbur. They were good friends, too. But in Wilbur's heart, no other spider can take Charlotte's place.

There were too many appealing things in our life, such as computer and television. Sometimes, we forgot there also has something interesting around us. Something was simple, not too complicated and worth noticing.

This two weeks, I have read to chapter sixteen of my chosen book - Charlotte's Web, leaving six chapters to be read next week. In the final of my last time reading the book, I read that the pig, Wilbur, was feed to be killed as bacon or ham. So, Wilbur went to find the spider, Charlotte, who could help him out the crisis.

Charlotte spent a lot of time working on a plan to save Wilbur's live. Finally, she got a good idea. She weaved a message on her web to show the people who were the master of the farm and intended to eat Wilbur. What the message said was that "the pig." This action result in a miracle on the pig. People who lived in the village all came to the farm to visit the pig and the master was also proud of Wilbur.

Infect, I couldn't really understand what "the pig" mean. Wasn't it equal to "certain pig?"I have consulted the dictionary but still found no answer. Though I was confused by the word "some pig," I read the book continually, wondering that maybe I could understand it by reading from the context.

Followed by "the pig," Charlotte weaved some other word like "terrific" or "radiant," appealing more people to came. Wilbur became more and more famous and so did his owner. By the way, there was not only Charlotte but also much animal helping Wilbur, such as the rat, Templeton . Then, one day, the master of the farm decided to take Wilbur to the fair. In order to protect Wilbur, Charlotte and Templeton hided in the crate which Wilbur was put in.

I have read here this week. It's odd for me why the spider weaved the miracle web, but the pig got the fame.

This week I have only read five chapters of my book – Charlotte's Web. The tests of Accounting, Calculus and history occupied most of my leisure time, so that I could hardly read it. During this two weeks, I have changed my way to read the book. Prior to two weeks, I consulted the dictionary as soon as I saw the word which I didn't understand. But I found that it wasn't fluent for me to read whole paragraph. Now, I mark the vocabularies by under line of them and consult the dictionary after every chapter.

The pig Wilbur in the book has a spider friend whose name is Charlotte. They talk every day and sometimes Charlotte show how she eat insects to Wilbur. There are lots of pleasant things happen in summary day in the farm which Wilbur and Charlotte live. For example , their friend ,a goose, have seven cute goslings. But one day, the old sheep told Wilbur a bad news that he was put on weight in order to be eat.

The story will develop splendidly and I look forward to the following chapters.

The book I chose is Charlotte's Web which was written by E. B. white in 1952. The reason why I chose this book was my classmate's recommend. Also, charlotte's web has been produced a film in 2007. Though I have no chance to see charlotte's web in the movie theater, I can enjoy it by reading.

This book contains twenty-two chapters. In the beginning, I planned to read one chapter one day, but the schedule hasn't practiced. There are some vocabularies that I didn't know so that I had to use the dictionary to confirm the meaning of those words.

I have read seven chapters so far. It is really a cute tale. The pig Wilbur in the story is innocent but has no friends. One day ,a spider whose name is Charlotte appear to talk with Wilbur. This makes Wilbur's life something different.

I hope that I can read faster and then reach my goal-one chapter one day.
