One of my favorite books is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain.The story happens in a town in the US.It tells some exciting stories about a boy who has man adventures （冒险）.
Tom，the hero of the book，lives with his aunt.He does not like people telling him what to do，so he always get into trouble.One day，Tom discovers the secret of a bad man named Injun Joe.So the bad man is looking for him.Tom firstly runs away to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River.Later，he runs into a cave（山洞）with a friend.They find Injun Joe's treasure box unexpectedly and arrive home safely with it.
My favorite part of the book is when Tom and his friend start their adventures on the island in the Mississippi River.At first，they are happy.But hearing that everyone thinks they are dead，they feel very sorry.So they come back home.When they suddenly appear，the family and neighbors are surprised to see them，but very pleased to find that they are alive.
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a great book.First of all，it tells a wonderful adventure story.It also 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.Today，it is still read and loved by people all over the world and is thought to be one of the greatest American stories.

I'll be perfectly honest： I'm not a fan of The Teen Cops． To me， it's very much like watching a silly comedy show on television． But， let me first say that not everything in the movie is bad．
The main characters are funny and lovable． Linda is cute， Sam is funny and Mr． Timmy， the dog， is a perfect partner to the two teenage crime fighters． The producers have also come up with exciting new music．
While the characters in the movie are fine， the plotis too simple． "They look for the bad guys， they find the bad guys， and then they catch the bad guys．" Boring! No difference from so many television programmes that we have seen before．
Here's another reason why I don't like the plot． Two teenagers and a little dog act like they are smarter than experienced policemen and criminals． This may be a comedy， but it isn't funny．
It seems that Director James Ma has made this comedy for people of all ages to enjoy． But， in my opinion， he has failed and it is not worth seeing．

Traditional Chinese culture is catching the world's eyes． The good traditional Chinese culture is our great treasure． President Xi Jinping says we should have a high of culture confidence． There are so many great works in the course of Chinese history such as Di Zi Gui，Lun Yu，Meng Zi and so on． Xi Jinping and other leaders often borrow some wonderful sentences from them． Dao De Jing is also one of them．
It is widely believed that Lao zi， a famous Chinese philosopher and the founder of Taoism， was the writer of Dao De Jing．There are only 5000 characters in the book， but it is considered as one of the oldest and most important philosophy books of ancient China．It includes two parts， Dao and De．
Dao means "the Way"． It doesn't tell us how to choose the right way， but it really shows that one should act through naturalness and non﹣action．
Naturalness refers to a natural state of being， an attitude of following the way of nature．Lao Zi thought that everything in the world has its own way of being and developing．Birds fly in the sky；Tigers live in the forest； Fish swim in the water； Flowers bloom and flowers fall． He gave advice to the people who have strong feelings to control the world． He said they should give up the desires （欲望）．
Non﹣action （无为） does not mean that one should do nothing but passively wait for something to be achieved． What he meant is that human should follow the way of nature and try not to break the rule of nature．
De means"Virtue（德行）"． Lao zi thought the great virtue is like water．And he thinks nothing in the world is weaker than water， yet nothing is stronger than water when it comes． It can nearly destroy everything strong． In ancient China， there is also a saying， water can hold the boat， it can also make the boat tum upside down． Water is a typical （典型的） example of the weak beating the strong．
Of course， there are many other wonderful things we can learn from the book． Today， Dao de Jing still plays a role in the development of Chinese thoughts． It is becoming more and more popular with people around the world．
