FRANKENSTEIN(2/2)

     I will introduce last half "FRANKENSTEIN", continuing from last week.

I destroyed the body on the table. The monster saw me destroy his future happiness.

     The monster asked Frankenstein to make female monster, his wife. But Frankenstein was afraid that new monster cause more tragedy and destroyed his new creation. The monster who hoped to be given love and wanted to spend a happy life with his wife was angry, so he determined to let Frankenstein be the most unhappy man in the world.

Let's decide on a date for the wedding. I promise that, in life or in death, I will give myself to her.

     Because of the monster, Frankenstein lost his brother and best friend. He was sad and spent quietly. A beloved Elizabeth, who is as weak as him, said she wanted to get married by letter, and he finally got married. This sentences is when he decided  this marriage. I like this sentences. Especially, 'I will give myself to her" express the strength of his determination to protect her.

And now he is dead, and I must die too. There is nothing more for me to do.

     This sentences is in last scene. I want you to read who is dead, how he died, and what will happen to the another one. When I read this scene, I was sure this is a sad story. I was so surprised and sad that no one was happy in last. 

     The words of this story is not difficult, and is too long. But it was a very  interesting book with detailed emotions and hints. Please read this and think whether this story is a kind of horror or tragedy.

The Mystery of Allegra

     I read "The Mystery of Allegra". Allegra is an unusual name. It means 'happy' in Italian, but the little girl in this story is sometimes very sad. Adrian,'I', is an English boy and tries to help this poor girl. I'll introduce important points with quotation. She was looking at me with big eyes, as blue as Italian sky in summer. Her blond hair was as bright as sunlight round her pale face.         This sentences is when Adrian met Allegra for the first time. He visited Italy with his parents on Holiday. They stayed a villa and he slept in a room different from his parents. Then, in night he met her. The reason I like this sentences is that it uses metaphors and easy to imagine her looks. Especially, I like "big eyes, as blue as Italian sky in summer". I have never visited Italy, but I can imagine sunny Italian sky. Also, it is an expression that can be made because he is traveling Italy. She was pale and beautiful, like the girl in my r

Rain, Rain, Rain!

"I don't like the rain. And it's raining today." She think, "I don't want to go to school." School starts at 9 o'clock. Now it's 8:20! This story is a girl who is likely to be late for school. She is a hurry,  but she can't use her bicycle, train and bus by  some accident.   It wonders if she get to school in time. I admire to this girl because she go to school by bicycle in the rain. If I am her, I will ask for my parents to take me to school. In the rain, road is wet and the view is wrong. Also, it is important to listen to other's advice .

San Francisco

  This week, I read “San Francisco”. This book has ten chapters, and they introduce San Francisco’s weather, history, tourist spot and shops. Although every chapter are interested, I will introduce my interesting chapters with quotation.   Chapter 3: From 1906 to the Summer of Love      This chapter is about modern San Francisco from 1906. 1906 is an important year for people and history in San Francisco. At 5.12 in the morning on Wednesday 18 April 1906, the earth suddenly began to move in San Francisco. ~The earth did not stop moving for forty-two seconds. It was a very big earthquake – one of the worst earthquakes in the world at that time.      I did not know they have experienced such a disaster. Because of this disaster, the fire continued to burn for four days, and more than three thousand men, women, and children died. When I read this number, I was so surprised. Even more surprising, in the year after the earthquake, San Francisco became a wonderful city again.   C
