1、The feelings ofThe Unquiet GraveThe book I have read during the winter vacation was The Unquiet Grave, written by M.R.James, who was famous for writing scary stories and was respected by millions and millions readers.The book The Unquiet Grave contains five parts, and each part in this book tells us
2、 a scary story. It has no relationships in the content of each article, but all of the stories setting are totally the samethey all happened in Cambridge University, each of them were connected by a corpse which was resurge strangely, frightening the life out of the role of each chapter, causing a g
3、reat many troublesome problems.I was so impressed by the first two scary stories. Mr. Williams received the painting that he was so interested in. after finishing writing a letter one night, Mr. Williams occasionally found a figure was in the middle of the lawn in the expensive painting, crawling on
4、 hands and knees, moving towards to the unknown house. The next day, Mr. Williams invited his friends Nisbet to come and discuss the mystery about the “unpleasant figure”. Luckily, Mr. Williams found the details about the unknown houseactually, it was a church named Anningly; and knew a little about
5、 the mystery of the Francis Family who were living there in twelfth-century. With the help of Doctor Green, Mr. Williams went a step further knowing the history of the Francis Family. Now, the “unpleasant figure” was in the museum, even though visitors now watched it so carefully.The second story wa
6、s happened in an inn in Suffolk years ago. A young man named Thomson, coming here and searching peaceful surroundings for reading. One day, he wanted to go to the four rooms next to the room Mr. Thomson lived. When he came to the first room, he became nervous. It was something in the bed that was mo
7、ving and shaking. And he was sure it could not be a rat because the figure of a person under the blanket was so clear, the shape of the head, the body. Before he left the inn, he lied to the owner of the inn in order to have a chance to go upstairs to check out what it was on earth in the next room.
8、 When he opened the door, he found it was only a scarecrow, but it was no longer an amusement, the scarecrow could shake his head himself, moving on the floor freely. Later, Mr. Betts told Mr. Thomson the truth. At the same time, I knew it also.It is really a good book, not only its content, but als
9、o the authors thought in the book. I have ever said, “An excellent book is that can bring readers into the scenes of the story, and makes reader thinks a lot.” I think it can not only teach us a lot, but it will let us know what scary story is. I am certain I will be like Professor Parkins, seeing a
10、 scarecrow in a field late on a winter will make me sleepless for a whole week, or a month.The feelings of Silas Marner George Eliot was one of the most famous novelists in Britain. Silas Marner is one of her most admired and loved works, in which she remind us to cherish the most valuable thing in
11、the world love.

He was rich ,but he had never shown it off in front of others or do some bad deeds by using his gold, which reflected that in fact he had a kind heart .The Squire Cass was the most important and rich person in Raveloe, who had two sonsDustan and God
