My Favourite Book

We can`t live without books. Book teaches us to be kind, to understand other people and help them. Books have been with me since my childhood. My parents have a big home book collection. There many interesting books by English and American writers. (…) I have read many marvellous books : “ Alice in Wonderland” by Luis Carrol, “Mowgli” by Rudyard Kipling, “Robinson Crusoe” by Daniel Defoe and many other interesting books, but my favourite book is “ The adventures of Tom Sawer” by Mark Twain.

Twain was a famous American writer. (Mark Twain was his pen-name, his real name was Samuel Clemens) He published the novel in 1876. It is an adventure story. It takes place in America in a small town on the Mississipi River. The plot of the book is full of thrilling moments.

 The main character of the book is Tom Sowyer. He was a boy with a wild, rich imagination. He and his friends often dreamt of different adventures. Tom was very naughty, but he was kind and brave, besides he was very noble. To add to this, he was a real friend, and his friend could rely on him.

The book is beautifully written, it is touching and funny. Moreover, the author`s sense of humour draws children`s attention to the book and makes the book amusing and entertaining.

It`s well worth reading and I highly recommend it to those who haven`t read it yet.

My Favourite Book

            I am fond of reading and I can`t imagine my life without books. Man cannot live on bread alone. Books are the source of knowledge and the means of selfperfection.

            I like to read books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and my favourite story is “The Hound [haund] of the Baskervilles”. It is an intriguing story that takes place in London and Dartmoor.

            The book is full of thrilling thrilling moments, as the author creates tension with unexpected twists and vivid descriptions. This fascinating book is about the famous detective, Sherkock Holmes, who tries to solve the mysterious death of Sir Charles Baskerville. Soon it becomes clear that Sir Henry, sir Charles` nephew is also in danger. Fortunately Holmes manages to solve the mystery and protects Sir Henry`s  life.

            The book is beautifully written. The reader is kept in suspense until the very end of the book. What gives the book its dark atmosphere, is the silent, evil presence of the legendary hound which dominates the story throughout.

            I thoroughly recommend “The Hound [haund] of the Baskervilles”. It`s well worth reading. It is a highly entertaining read as the author shows the depth of psychological analysis and the insight into the human nature.

My Favourite Book

            Some people think that books will be replaced by computers, but I don`t believe it, as books are the  greatest wonders of the world. They help us to discover new things and explore new ideas.

            When I have spare time I read books with great pleasure. Time spent on a good book is never wasted. I have read many interesting books: (…..), but my favourite book is “Robinson Crusoe” by Daniel Defoe. Daniel Defoe lived many years ago. He wrote the novel “Robinson Crusoe” in 1719 when he was 59.

            The plot of the book is very gripping and has an unexpected twist. The language is rich and interesting.

            This novel is about one boy. He became a sailor as he liked sea very much. He went to sea many times, but once the ship broke and all people were drowned. But Robinson could swim and saved himself. The sea carried him to the shore. Unfortunately, there were no people there.

            Robinson Crusoe lived on an island for 28 years. He worked a lot, he worked all time and learnt to make many useful things. I think that this novel is a praise to human labor and the victory of a man over nature. The book is full of thrilling moments as the author creates tension with unexpected twist and vivid descriptions. I am sure that this novel seizes on all generations. I thoroughly recommend to read it. It`s well worth reading.

O Captain!My Captain! (by Walt Whitman)

“O Captain! My Captain!..” — «О капитан! Мой капитан!..»

О Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
      But О heart! heart! heart!
        O the bleeding drops of red,
          Where on the deck my Captain lies,
            Fallen cold and dead.

О Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up-for you the flag is flung-for you the bugle trills,
For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths-for you the shores a-crowding,
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
      Here Captain! dear father!
        This arm beneath your head!
          It is some dream that on the deck,
            You’ve fallen cold and dead.

My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will,
The ship is anchor’d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
      Exult О shores, and ring О bells!
        But I with mournful tread,
          Walk the deck my Captain lies,
            Fallen cold and dead.

Walt Whitman (1819 — 1892)

О Капитан! мой Капитан! сквозь бурю мы прошли,
Изведан каждый ураган, и клад мы обрели,
И гавань ждет, бурлит народ, колокола трезвонят,
И все глядят на твой фрегат, отчаянный и грозный!
      Но сердце! сердце! сердце!
          Кровавою струей
            Забрызгана та палуба,
              Где пал ты неживой.

О Капитан! мой Капитан! ликуют берега,
Вставай! все флаги для тебя, — тебе трубят рога,
Тебе цветы, тебе венки — к тебе народ толпится,
К тебе, к тебе обращены восторженные лица.
        Отец! ты на руку мою
          Склонися головой!
            Нет, это сон, что ты лежишь
              Холодный, неживой!

Мой Капитан ни слова, уста его застыли,
Моей руки не чувствует, безмолвен и бессилен,
До гавани довел он свой боевой фрегат,
Провез он через бурю свой драгоценный клад.
        Звените, смейтесь, берега,
          Но горестной стопой
            Я прохожу по палубе,
              Где пал он неживой.

Уолт Уитмен
Перевод К. Чуковского

О капитан! Мой капитан! Рейс трудный завершен,
Все бури выдержал корабль, увенчан славой он.
Уж близок порт, я слышу звон, народ глядит, ликуя,
Как неуклонно наш корабль взрезает килем струи.
            Но сердце! Сердце! Сердце!
            Как кровь течет ручьем
            На палубе, где капитан
            Уснул последним сном!

О капитан! Мой капитан! Встань и прими парад,
Тебе салютом вьется флаг и трубачи гремят;
Тебе букеты и венки, к тебе народ теснится,
К тебе везде обращены восторженные лица.
            Очнись, отец! Моя рука
            Лежит на лбу твоем,
            А ты на палубе уснул
            Как будто мертвым сном.

Не отвечает капитан и, побледнев, застыл,
Не чувствует моей руки, угаснул в сердце пыл.
Уже бросают якоря, и рейс наш завершен,
В надежной гавани корабль, приплыл с победой он.
            Ликуй, народ, на берегу!
            Останусь я вдвоем
            На палубе, где капитан
            Уснул последним сном.
