美国小学生的读后感（四）
10月6日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 我是从图书馆借到《黑圈》的。（我忘了是哪个图书馆了，好像是圣荷西图书馆。）我妈妈帮我找这本书的时候，图书馆还没买到书，她不得不申请并等候。我是第一个读这本书的。 马德里人是卡哈尔家族中最强大，最让人害怕的一支。我很奇怪为什么他们竟然不在卡哈尔家族的族谱上。每个人都害怕马德里人，想避开他们。 但是在《超越坟墓》这本书里，，爱卡塔在埃及开罗的大本营被马德里人抢劫了。丹和艾米认为那个从一开始就跟踪他们的黑衣人也是马德里人。 丹和艾米的父母死于一场大火。 我现在在读杰夫-斯通写的《猴》。它是《虎》的续集， 《虎》是系列中的第一本。《猴》的故事和《虎》差不多，只是从不同的角度来写。 在这本书里，虎发现村里的那个醉汉，就是第一本书里救了他的那个人，可能是他的父亲。马骝(猴）发现蛇非常像螳螂，蛇可能是螳螂的儿子。 在书的末尾，僧和鹰一直在打，直到螳螂（鹰的大元帅）阻止了他们。僧和鹰都晕过去了。 螳螂趁此机会夺取了鹰的军队。我认为螳螂在帮助五个和尚，他等了很久才等到这个机会夺取鹰的统治。 我现在在读《追寻》，作者：安吉-塞奇。这本书讲述一个叫萨提姆斯-希普的'男孩被派去寻找一件宝物，但他却想方设法去寻找几百年前消失在时间隧道里的尼可和斯诺。 书里有一个人物，叫埃非尼尔-戈里布，被魔咒变成了半人半鼠， 而且永远没办法改变。 对于他来说，生活一定非常艰难，尤其是他不能说话，而且每个人见到他都会尖叫。 您的学生， 冰 *** 月13日 亲爱的冰， 我很喜欢你对于《超越坟墓》和《猴》的观察。 可以看出你读书时深入思考了。 安吉-塞奇讲了她写书的灵感是从哪里来的。你了解了她和她生长的地方，应该能更深入地理解《追寻》这本书了吧？ 萨提姆斯-希普在找寻他的哥哥尼克的过程中发生了什么？尼克的世界是怎样的？ 安吉-塞奇描写人物特传神。你提到了埃非尼尔-戈里布的命运。还有其他特殊的人物吗？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 译者 注1：《追寻》的作者安吉-塞奇是英国人，当时在美国为她的新书做宣传，被学校请来和全体五年级学生面谈。 注2：冰儿知道老师想看《黑圈》，这本在图书馆借的书还有两个星期才到期，他就把书带到学校借给老师看了。 *** 10/6/ Dear Ms. Emma, I got The Black Circle at library (I forgot which one. I think it was San Jose Public Library). My mom had to request it since it wasn’t there yet. I think I was the first person to read that copy of the book. The Madrigals are the most powerful and most feared branch of Cahills. I wonder why they aren’t shown on the Cahill Coat of Arms. Everybody fears the Madrigals and tries to steer clear of them, but in Cairo, Egypt, in Beyond the Grave, the Ekat’s stronghold gets robbed by Madrigals. Dan and Amy also think The Man in black, who has been following them since the beginning, is a Madrigal. Dan and Amy’s parents died in a fire. I am reading Monkey, by Jeff Stone, right now. It is a sequel to Tiger, the first book. It’s actually the same story, just from different points of view. In this book, Fu finds out that the drunkard from the village, who had rescued him in the first book, might be his father. Malao also finds out that Seh looks a lot like Tonglong, and Seh might be Tonglong’s son. At the end of the book, Tsung and Ying fight each other until Tonglong, Ying’s Number-One-in-Command tells them to stop. Both Ying and Tsung fall into unconsciousness, and Tonglong seizes his chance to take over Ying’s army. I think Tonglong is helping the five monks, and he has waited a long time to have an opportunity to take over Ying’s command. I am now reading Queste, by Angie Sage. It is about a boy named Septimus Heap who gets sent on a Queste, but tries to find Nicko and Snorri, who were lost in time, hundreds of years ago, instead. There is a character in the book, Ephaniah Grebe, who gets cursed and is, and will be forever, half-man-half-rat. It must be very hard for him to live like that. Especially since he can’t talk, and everybody screams when they see him. Your Student, Ben *** 10/13/2009 Dear Ben, I enjoyed reading your observations of Beyond the Grave and Monkey. I can tell you think deeply about your books! I loved hearing how Angie Sage gets her ideas. It must really help you better understand Queste knowing a little about her and where she grew up. What is happening with Septimus’ quest to find his brother Nicko? What is Nicko’s world like? Angie Sage really gets into her character. You mentioned the fate of Ephaniah Grebe. Any other interesting ones? Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感 - 书单（2）

五年级英语学习分好几块。这篇文章讲的是其中一块：阅读及读后感。 这一块的阅读属于泛读， 自己读，老师不做具体的指导。 他们每天有一节泛读课，共45分钟，每个人自己安静地读书。一学年需要读完40本书，包括：文学经典读物： 4本，现代小说： 6本，历史小说：4本，幻想类小说：4本，科幻小说：4本，知识性读物：4本，传记：4本，自选读物：10本。限种类，但不限具体的书， 在那类里可自选书读。读完老师规定的四十本书后，可以自选任何种类的书读。 冰儿读书很快，10月中旬的时候读了27本书，到十二月底读了七十多本，到5月初读完了106本。到7月份共读完128本。 阅读还有精读部分：每个阶段每个组的同学读同一本书，每天做笔记，然后交流读书心得。以后我再详细讲讲这一部分。 这些读后感属于泛写，老师同样不具体指导你怎么写。泛读课的最后5分钟用来写读后感，有时在家里读了后有感想也可以写下来。想到哪写到哪，不打草稿，不修改。以向老师写信的'方式写。老师一个星期回一封信。 我看了我儿子的读后感，非常喜欢。我也喜欢老师的回信，教书育人都体现在里边了。我准备把他这一年的读后感和老师的回信全部翻译出来，同时把他们的英文原文也附在后边。如果你看得懂英文的话，就把我的中文翻译跳过，直接看英文原文。译文永远都不会比原文好（不仅我的译文，任何译文都是如此）。美国小学生的读后感（七）
11月4日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 帕特里克是自愿参军的。 不过他后来说自己竟然会做这么愚蠢的事，真是个彻头彻尾的傻瓜。 我认为他报名参军时并不知道战争如此残酷。 他到了部队里几个月后，迫使自己不再交新朋友，怕新朋友马上会死掉。我不知道帕特里克怎么看美国帮助南越这件事的。 现在我在读《儿童幽默故事集》。 里边有一些短篇幽默故事，以及摘选自其他书本的一些章节。 在“比格尔夫人的魔法”里，我认为孩子们不应该总是说：“哦，我以为你说的是。。。”。虽然好玩，但很讨厌，父母们听得都快疯掉了。 在“大象的孩子”里，我认为大人不能在每次大象的孩子好奇提问的时候打他。 在“蛾和星星”里，蛾爸爸认为翅膀被烤焦是一件非常荣耀的`事。但是小蛾没有听爸爸的话，翅膀从来没被烧灼过。 他因此比他爸爸和兄弟们活得岁数长多了。 在“切尔姆的傻瓜们和鲤鱼”里，我认为切尔姆人都很蠢。故事一开始，倪力进献给切尔姆的首领奥克斯一条活鲤鱼。鲤鱼的尾巴打了奥克斯的脸。 奥克斯生气了，举办了很多次审判会定它的罪，但不知道该拿它怎么办。 最后他决定把鲤鱼扔河里淹死。 所有人都觉得这是个绝妙的主意。 您的学生， 冰 *** 月9日 亲爱的冰， “大象的孩子”选自鲁德亚德・吉卜林的名著《原来如此・吉卜林故事集》 。 这类故事被称为pourquoi故事，因为它们讲述各种现象是怎么来的。“大象的孩子”描述了什么现象？ 吉卜林也是《森林王子》的作者。 “蛾和星星”是詹姆斯-瑟伯写的一个寓言， 1940年第一次发表在故事集《我们时代的寓言》里。这个故事教给我们一个道理。 小蛾学到了什么道理？ 这本书里你已经读完多少个故事了？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 11/4/ Dear Ms. Emma, Patrick volunteered for the army. He said that he was a complete idiot for doing that. I think when he enlisted he didn’t know how horrible war actually was. After he was in the war for a few months, he actually forced himself not to make any new friends, just in case they died. I don’t really know if Patrick believed the U.S. was right about helping South Vietnam. Right now, I am reading The Random House Book of HUMOR for Children. It consists of funny short stories, or chapters or sections of other books. In Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle’s Magic, I don’t think the children should always say “Oh, I thought you said…” Even though it is funny, it drives the parents crazy, and is annoying. In The Elephant’s Child, I think the adults don’t always have to spank the Elephant’s Child whenever he gets curious, or asks a question. In The Moth and the Star, the father moth thinks that if your wings get singed, or burned, it is a very big honor. But the child moth didn’t listen and didn’t get burned at all, which let him live far longer than his father or brothers. In The Fools of Chelm and the Stupic Carp, I think the people of Chelm are very stupid. It started when Zeinvel Ninny brought a live carp to Gronam Ox, the leader of Chelm. The carp slapped Ox with its tail, so Ox got angry. He held lots of trials, but couldn’t decided what to do with it. Finally, he decided the carp should be drowned. Everybody thought that was a great idea. Sincerely, Ben *** 11/9/2009 Dear Ben, The Elephant’s Child is originally from Just So Stories for Little Children by Rudyard Kipling, the author of The Jungle Book. These types of stories are called pourquoi stories because they tell accounts of how various phenomena came about. What phenomena does The Elephant’s Child describe? The Moth and the Star is a fable by James Thurber and was first printed in the story collection Fables for Our Time in 1940. This one teaches a lesson. What lesson did the young moth learn? How many stories have you read from the book? Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（十二）
2009年12月15日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 他的错误和挫折有：当他试图生火时，用错燃料了，结果花了很长时间才把火生起来； 他做了鱼叉后，总是瞄不准，叉不到鱼。 他的胜利是：第一次成功生火； 第一次杀鱼； 第一次杀了一只动物，吃到了除鱼以外的其它肉类。这本书对他回到现实生活中后的事情没有过多描述，不过确实讲到他被救几年后仍然很瘦。 而且自从他离开树林，他在说话或做事前总会仔细思考，观察能力也比以前强多了。 现在我在读《美国的爱尔兰移民》，这是一本“你来选择”书，在书里读者可以自行决定故事怎么发展下去。 读了这本书，我懂得了当时的'爱尔兰移民生活多么艰难。他们能找到的工作工资都极低，很多工作非常危险。 我刚读完《日裔美国人拘留营》，作者瑞秋-汉内尔。这也是一本“你来选择”书。 我认为如此多的日裔美国人被迫失去工作， 被关到安置营是极其不公平的事。即使他们没有做任何错事，甚至在战后，他们依然面对很多的歧视。 现在我在读卡尔-希尔森的《倾泻》。这本书讲述一个叫诺亚的男孩，想要证明达斯丁在非法向水里倾泻污物。 达斯丁的船已被诺亚的爸爸弄沉。 诺亚的爸爸热爱环境和动物。 很多时候，当他看到有人危害动物，污染环境时，他会愤怒得失去理智。我认为他被关起来，没有办法证明达斯丁的所作所为，对他很不公平。 您的学生， 冰 *** 1月4日 亲爱的冰， 你读过卡尔-希尔森所著的其它书籍吗？他在弗罗里达出生和长大， 高中毕业后上了弗罗里达大学， 毕业后在“迈阿密先驱报”的刑事版做记者。他的很多书的构想来自在弗罗里达发生的真实案件。 诺亚和阿比是怎样帮助他们的父亲证明达斯丁确实从船的污水泵里向外排泄污物了？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 12/15/2009 Dear Ms. Emma, Here are some of his mistakes or setbacks: When he tried to start a fire, his fuel was wrong and it took a while to make one. Another one was when he made a fishing spear; he didn’t aim right and always missed. Some of his triumphs were: When he started his first fire, when he first killed a fish, and the first time he killed and ate actual meat instead of fish every day. It didn’t really say much about when he went back to the real world, but it did say that he remained lean and wiry for several more years and also since he left the woods, he always thought carefully before saying or doing anything, and he also noticed much more than before. Right now I am reading Irish Immigrants in America. It is a You Choose Book, you can choose what you want to do in the book. In this book, I learned that being an Irish immigrant at that time was very hard. None of the jobs paid much money to them, and a lot of the jobs were dangerous. I just finished The Japanese American Internment, by Rachael Hanel, which is also a You Choose Book. In this book I think it is very unfair that so many Japanese Americans were forced out of jobs and lives into Relocation Camps. Also, even though they didn’t do anything wrong, even after the war, they still faced lots of discrimination. Right now I am reading Flush, by Carl Hiaasen. It is about a boy named Noah, trying to prove that Dusty Muleman, whose ship was sunk by Noah’s dad, was illegally dumping sewage into the water. Noah’s dad loves the environment and animals, and a lot of times, if he sees someone mistreating animals or polluting the environment, he would overreact. I think it is unfair that he was jailed and couldn’t prove what Dusty was doing. Your student, Ben *** 1/4/ Dear Ben, Have you read other books by Carl Hiaasen? He was born and raised in Florida and even went to the University of Florida. He later went to work for the newspaper, The Miami Herald, where he wrote the Crime Section. He got many of his book ideas from real life crime stories in Florida. How do Noah and Abbey help their dad prove Dusty Muleman was dumping sewage from the boat’s holding tank? Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（六）
10月27日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 是的，我确实喜欢他的写作方式。他好像在面对面给你讲故事一样。他的书很容易读懂。我最喜欢他那本《世界上最愚蠢的盗贼》。 现在我在读《帕特里克的日记》。 这是本极其悲惨的书，里边有很多的死亡和受伤。两天之内，排里一半的士兵被北越军打死了。 罗特格回来了。他是帕特里克班里的老战友。当他被子弹射中两次后，每个人都以为他死了。现在大家放心了。 我无法相信两个月里能死那么多人。从帕特里克来到班里以来，班里只剩下四个人了（包括他）, 其他人不是死了，就是被送去了医院。 结尾非常悲伤。帕特里克曾呆过的`地方被北越军队的火箭弹炸了。帕特里克最好的朋友死了。他的另一个朋友，教授，失去了双腿，眼睛也瞎了。帕特里克也受了重伤，被送回家。他非常伤心痛苦。 您的学生， 冰 *** 月2日 亲爱的冰， 越南战争1959年爆发，，到1975年才结束！我们，和其他反对共产主义的国家， 跟越共和北越打仗。我们进入战争的目的是为了防止共产党侵占南越。 共有约六万名美国士兵死于越战，相当于我们市的总人口。 读到帕特里克的很多战友不是死亡就是受伤，我并不感到吃惊。很多士兵只能坐轮椅回家，因为他们的双腿被锯掉了。还有的眼睛瞎了，或失去了听力。这些士兵经历了很多极端恐怖和可怕的事，终身无法忘怀。 三百到四百万的越南人死于越战。美国士兵为了赢得胜利，一进入村庄就不加区分地扫射，无辜的百姓因此失去生命。 帕特里克是自愿参军的还是被征兵的？大多数战士是被征兵进入军队，被迫去打仗。帕特里克认为美国进入越战帮助南越人民的做法是对的吗？ 这里很多人不这样认为。 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 10/27/ Dear Ms. Emma, Yes, I do like his style of writing. It’s written so that it actually sounds like someone is telling the story in his own words. It is very easy to understand his books. My favorite book by him is The World’s Dumbest Crooks. Right now, I am reading The Journal of Patrick Seamus Flaherty. The book is tragic with lots of deaths and injuries. About half he whole platoon died against the NVA in two days. Rotgut, one of the original guys in Patrick’s squad, just came back. Everybody had thought he was dead when he was shot two times. Everybody was relieved. I can’t believe how many people died in two months. Only four of the squad members since Patrick came (including Patrick) are still in the squad. The others are either dead, or in the hospital. The ending was really sad. The place where Patrick had been was bombed by NVA rockets. Patrick’s best friend Bebop died. Another one of his friends, the Professor, lost both his legs, and he was blinded. Patrick had a really serious injury too, so they sent him home. He was very sad. Your student, Ben *** 11/2/2009 Dear Ben, The Vietnam War was a military conflict that started in 1959 and ended in 1975! We, and other anti-communist countries, were fighting the Vietcong and the North Vietnamese. We started fighting in this war to prevent the communist from taking over S. Vietnam. About 60,000 US soldiers died. That’s about the size of our city. I was not surprised to read that many of Patrick’s squad members were dead or injured. Many soldiers came home in wheelchairs, with limbs amputated, blind, or without their hearing. These soldiers saw horrible, horrible things that they could never forget. 3-4 million Vietnamese died. The U.S. soldiers went into villages and just shot everyone (innocent people) while they were looking for the victory. Did Patrick enlist (volunteer) in the war or was he drafted? Most people were drafted and forced to fight. Did Patrick believe the United States was right to go in and help the S. Vietnamese people? Many people here did not. Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（二十）
3月9日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 没有，我还没有看过电影。但我已经很多次听人家提到这个电影了。 我认为美好的友谊比大把的钱要有价值得多。当然如果可能的话，我两样都要。 我没有读过凯特-迪卡米罗的其他书。 我现在在读詹姆斯-帕特森的`《马克西姆》。托托（鸟孩们的会说话的狗）对人们现在这样对待狗很恼怒。但它喜欢法国人--- 至少大多数法国餐馆允许狗狗进去用餐。我认为我们应该善待动物。 我现在在读“三脚人”系列之第一部：《白山》， 作者为约翰-克利斯朵夫。这是一本科幻小说，讲述一个叫威尔的男孩为躲避三脚人向白山里逃去。 三脚人是庞大的，三只脚的机器。有些人认为他们来自外星球，奴役地球人；有些人认为他们是古代人（机器人控制地球之前的人类）造出来的机器，能思维，后来反叛了。 它使我想到电影《终结者》， 那也是关于人造机器造反的故事。 我现在在读里克-杨斯所写的《所罗门的封印》。 它讲述艾尔弗雷德试图用所罗门的封印拯救世界。 真诚的， 冰 *** 203月15日 亲爱的冰， 你的信显示你有很强的洞察力和思考能力。 你很有想法，表达能力也强 --- 高于五年级的程度。 我完全赞同你的观点 ---美好的友谊比大把的钱要有价值得多。钱真的不能使你快乐，但是友谊可以。你只需要足够的钱支付日常开销就可以了。 一旦基本生活条件能满足，更多的钱并不能使你快乐。去上大学 --- 上克莱姆森大学 --- 你以后挣的钱就够生活了。 我是上了高中才读的《白山》， 因为那时年轻人能读到的科幻小说太少了。我读五年级时，老师没有叫我读科幻小说。我太喜欢这本书了！ 威尔对人生有了怎样的理解和感悟？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 3/9/ Dear Ms. Emma, No, I haven’t seen the movie, but I’ve heard people talk about it lots of times. I think a good friendship is better than having a lot of money, but I would have both if I could. No, I don’t think I’ve read any other book by Kate DiCamillo. I’m reading Max, by James Patterson. Total, the Flock’s talking dog, is very irritated at humans for treating dogs like they do. But he likes the French C at least most of the restaurants in France allow dogs to eat inside. I think we should treat animals better. I am reading The Tripods 1: The White Mountains. It is a Science Fiction book about a boy named Will traveling to the White Mountains to hide from the Tripods (Author: John Christopher). The Tripods are big, three legged machines. Some people think they, came from outer space and enslaved human kind, and some people think they were just thinking machines that the Ancients (People before the Tripods took over) built that rebelled. It reminded me of the movie series Terminator, where machines built by humans revolted. I am reading The Seal of Solomon, by Rick Yancey. It is about Alfred Kropp trying to save the world with the Seal of King Solomon. Sincerely, Ben *** 3/15/2010 Dear Ben, Your letters are very insightful and reflective. You have great ideas and you express them at a high level C higher than 5th grader. I absolutely agree with you --- friendship is better than having a lot of money. Money really doesn’t make you happy, but your friends can. You only need enough money to meet your needs. Once your needs are met, more money won’t make you happy. Go to college C go to Clemson C and you will have plenty of $. I read White Mountains when I was in high school because there was very little SF for young people to read. I didn’t have a teacher making me read SF in 5th grade. I loved it! What did Will realize/learn about life? Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（十八）
2010年2月23日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 比赛规则有121条，包括：参赛者必须穿蓝色衣服，追捕者穿黄色，裁判穿黑白色。其他规则有：如果你被追捕者抓到，你必须在拘留所呆够72小时才能继续参赛。 是的，我认出了巴黎，莫斯科，和其他所有他去过的地方。 我现在在读《马克西姆：学校永远放假了》。这是《天使试验》的续集。 在这本书里，马克西姆一直认为杰伯是叛徒，她恨他。但我认为尽管他出卖了她，并接到命令“回收”她，他实际上爱她（我刚发现他是她的.父亲。） 我刚读完《马克西姆：拯救世界》。 马克西姆的同父异母弟弟阿里是个“清除者”，一开始总是想要杀了鸟孩们，抓住马克西姆。 但当他领她参观了爱太克斯公司后，他不再恨马克西姆了。马克西姆也不再恨他。我认为他们彼此知道对方并不是故意作那些做过的事。 真诚的， 冰 *** 2010年3月1日 亲爱的冰， 马克西姆发现了一些家庭秘密。你对她妈妈有了哪些了解？ 为什么马克西姆总是想要拯救世界？ 从哪里拯救出来？ “学校”是怎样跟踪她和其他鸟孩的？ 在我看来她每天所做的就是设法躲避“清除者”，设法使爱太克斯公司不知道她在哪里，设法阻止其他人变成坏人。 我理解得对吗？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 2/23/2010 Dear Ms. Emma, I think there are 121 rules in the contest including players have to wear blue, trackers yellow, and referees black-and-white. Also there are rules like if you are caught by trackers you have to remain in detention for 72 hours before continuing. Yes, I recognized Paris, Moscow, and all of the countries he went to. I am now reading Maximum Ride: School’s Out - Forever. It is the sequel to The Angel Experiment. In this book Max always thinks of Jeb as a traitor and she hates him. But I think even though he betrays her and has orders to “retire” her, he actually loves her (I just found out he is her father.) I just finished Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports. Ari, Max’ Eraser half-brother, first always wanted to kill the flock and capture Max. But after he toured her around Itex, he didn’t hate Max anymore. Max didn’t hate him anymore either. I think they both knew the other person didn’t do what they did on purpose. Sincerely, Ben *** 3/1/2010 Dear Ben, Max has discovered some family secrets. What do you know about her mother? Why does Max always have to save the world? Save it from what? How is the School able to track her and the rest of flock? It seems to me that her day is trying to escape the Erasers, trying to keep the Itex Corporation from knowing where she is and trying to keep others from joining the evil side. Am I close?

10月13日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 我现在读到萨提姆斯， 杰娜和毕托到了佛里克斯庄园， 那是“所有时间的会聚点”。 他们希望能在那里找到尼可和斯诺。佛里克斯庄园的神奇之处在于：任何进入庄园的人就不在时间里了。只有靠别人从庄园外边打开门，里边的人才能出去， 然后只能进入开门那个人所在的时间点。萨提姆斯， 杰娜和毕托希望尼可和斯诺还没有离开庄园， 否则将很难再找到他们。 我喜欢这本书的结尾：超级大巫师马夏把他们三人以及尼可和斯诺都从佛里克斯庄园救了出来， 他们回到家， 莎拉-希普见到了尼可。 他们都快乐无比。 书里还有其他有趣的人物，比如马林。 别人以前一直以为他就是萨提姆斯-希普， 但他现在什么都不是了。 马林进入黑色魔术圈，从他师傅多姆-丹尼尔那里偷走了双面戒指。 谁拥有这枚戒指将永生不死。但尽管人家不可能杀了他，马林却胆子很小，害怕很多事情。 现在我在读杰夫-斯通写的《蛇》。 这本书讲蛇，虎，蟒（蛇的父亲），山虎（虎的父亲），以及其他和尚和他们的父母们一起， 同鹰以及鹰的盟友战斗。 螳螂背叛了鹰，骗皇帝说是鹰害死了岳（皇帝的侄子）。 于是鹰失去了兵权（螳螂取代了鹰），被关在监狱里一直到死。我认为鹰罪有应得。 我现在在读安伦-祖罗写的《救难英雄》。 这本书记录的.全都是真实发生过的，人们甘冒生命危险抢救别人的英勇事迹。 在“洪水和暴雨”这一章，彼得把他全家人从卡特里娜飓风中救了出来。 这件事让我想起在中国四川发生的大地震。 一个小男孩跳进正在到塌的楼房，把他的朋友们拉了出来。 他们全都活下来了。 中国人民给了他无尚的荣誉，让他参加了20奥运会开幕式。 我现在刚开始读《帕特里克的日记》，这是一本关于越南战争的书。 您的学生， 冰 *** 月26日 亲爱的冰， 你的信写得很有趣，信息量很大！ 你把你的想法准确表达出来了！ 安伦-祖罗的《救难英雄》听上去是一本很鼓舞人心的书， 讲述了英勇的人们为救别人不惜牺牲自己的生命。我记得这个中国小男孩和他的英勇事迹。 我在奥运开幕式上看到他了。 安伦-祖罗写了很多令人难以置信的真实故事。 很多甚至是真实的鬼故事。你喜欢他的写作方式吗？你怎么描述他的写作方式？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 10/13/ Dear Ms. Emma, I already read to the part about when Septimus, Jenna, and Beetle reach The House of Foryx, where All Time Do Meet, also where they hope Nicko and Snorri are. The way The House of Foryx works, is that anybody who enters it, is in no time at all. The only way out is when somebody else opens the door from outside. Then, you go out. But when you go out you enter the time the person who is opening the door is in. Septimus, Jenna, and Beetle hope Nicko, and Snorri didn’t go out already, otherwise it would be hard to find them. I like the ending where Marcia Overstrand, the ExtraOrdinary Wizard rescue them from The House of Forys along with Nicko, and Snorri. Then they go home and Sarah Heap sees Hicko and they’re all very happy. There are other interesting characters too, like Merrin Meredith. People used to think he was Septimus Heap, but now he was nobody. Merrin was into Darke Magyk and he stole the two-faced ring from DomDaniel, his old master. Whoever has this ring will never die. But even though he is un-destructible, he isn’t brave and is scared of a lot of things. Right now I am reading Snake, by Jeff Stone. It is about She, Fu, and the other monks joining with some of their parents, including Mong (She’s dad), Sanfu (Fu’s dad), and others, facing Ying and his allies together. Tonglong had betrayed Ying and tricked the Emperor into thinking it was Ying’s fault that Yue, the Emperor’s nephew, died. His punishment was to be stripped of his army (Tonglong would take his place), and sit in jail until his flesh rots. I think Ying deserves his fate. I am reading The Rescuers, by Allan Zullo. It is real people in real situations risking their lives to save others. In “The Flood and the Fury”, how Peter saved his family and survived Hurricane Katrina, reminded me of a big earthquake in Si Chuan, China, in . A small boy had jumped into an already collapsing building and pulled his friends out. They all survived. Chinese honored the boy and he appeared in the Opening Ceremony of the 2008 Olympics. I just started The Journal of Patrick Seamus Flaherty, which is about Patrick in the Vietnam War. Your student, Ben *** 10/26/2009 Dear Ben, Your letter was interesting to read and very informative! You really explained your thinking! The Rescuers by Allan Zullo sounds like an inspiring book recounting the stories of those who risked their lives for others. I remember the boy from China and his story. I did see him honored at the Olympics. Allan Zullo has written many books about unbelievable true stories. Many of these books are about true ghost stories. Do you like his style of writing? How would you describe it? Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（二十六）
4月27日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 他应该使故事情节不要那么混乱。应该有人（比如在书的最后）告诉大卫龙的真假， 而不是让他最初认为龙是假的，然后是真的，然后又是假的。 我现在在读卡什-阿帕特的《在下边》。这本书讲述一个叫伽菲斯的坏人， 与他的狗，和几只猫（狗的朋友们）的故事。 我无法理解伽菲斯怎么能这么坏。 他一生从来没有感到过懊悔和抱歉。 即使真正的恶人有时也会有那种感情的。 我现在正在读《规则》，由辛西娅-罗德所写。OT做些什么事？我认为OT没怎么帮到大卫。大卫做了很多让凯瑟琳尴尬， 失面子的.事， 我替她难过。 真诚的， 冰 *** 205月10日 亲爱的冰， OT是“职业治疗师”的简称。职业治疗师帮助身体有局限的人。他们教病人日常生活技能，以使他们能独立生活。杰森的OT教他怎样跟别人交流，怎么操作轮椅。她可能还教他吃饭，刷牙等。她希望他越独立越好。大卫的OT可能教他跟别人讲话时要看着人家，控制住身体，适应响声，少发脾气等。 大卫真的无法控制他的脑子。 我认为凯瑟琳不应该觉得尴尬。 他就是那样的人。 我能理解她的感觉，但我更同情大卫。 你认为克里斯汀称得上是凯瑟琳的好朋友吗？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 4/27/2010 Dear Ms. Emma, I think he should have made the book less confusing. It would have been better if someone, maybe at the end, just told him if the dragons were real or not, instead of first feeling that the dragons were fake, then real, then fake again. I am reading The Underneath, by Kathi Appett. It is about an evil man named Gar Face and his dog, Ranger, and some cats who befriend Ranger. I don’t get how Gar Face could be so mean. He never felt any sorrow or regret in his life. Even rally evil people have those feelings sometimes. I am reading Rules, by Cynthia Lord. What does the OT do? I don’t’ think it really helps David much. I feel sorry for Catherine, David embarrasses her a lot. Sincerely, Ben *** 5/10/2010 Dear Ben, OT stands for “Occupational Therapist”. An occupational therapist works with people who have limitations. Their role is to help others lead a full life by teaching them how to do day-to-day tasks. Jason’s OT teaches how to communicate and maneuver his wheelchair. She probably also teaches him how to eat, brush his teeth, etc. She wants him to be as independent as possible. David’s OT probably teaches him how to look at others when he speaks to them, control his body, deal with loud sounds, have fewer tantrums, etc. David really can’t help the way his brain thinks. I don’t think Catherine should be embarrassed. That’s just who he is. I understand why she is, but I feel for David. Do you think Kristi is a good friend to Catherine?

2月16日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 是的，她妈妈是编辑。 一开始我和纳塔丽的想法一样，以为出书非常容易，你只要写个故事，给出版社打电话，然后书就印出来了。但事实上，你必须首先找到经纪人，接着找到出版社，然后才能出版。整个过程比想象的困难多了。 我是在班级图书馆里借到《校园故事》的。 我读过《粉灵豆》。我也认为这是安德鲁-克莱门茨最好的一本书。我非常喜欢它。 我现在在读罗尔德－达尔写的《查理和大玻璃电梯》。 这是《查理和巧克力工厂》的续集。它讲述查理一家和旺达先生乘着玻璃电梯历险的故事。 罗尔德－达尔非常幽默，他的写作方法，遣词造句都很有想象力和创造性。 现在我在读詹姆斯-帕特森所著的《马克西姆：天使试验》。这是关于一群实验室变异出来的孩子们试图拯救世界的故事。 这些鸟孩们很酷，他们有翅膀，能飞。如果我能有翅膀， 那就太美了！ 我刚读完《MVP》, 作者是道格拉斯-埃文斯。这本书讲述24个队用40天的时间环绕地球。真诚的，冰 *** 202月22日 亲爱的冰， 罗尔德－达尔将被作为二十世纪最伟大的儿童作家之一铭记在人们心间。 他的.儿童书籍里常常会出现坏男人或坏女人，他们恨孩子，虐待孩子。但也会出现至少一个“好”的大人。达尔说他小时候在寄宿学校时，经常被老师们和校长们虐待。 所以他必须写出来。 不过他以幽默的方式写了。 给我多讲讲埃文斯的《MVP》。 比赛的规则是什么？你认得出那些地方吗？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 2/16/ Dear Ms. Emma, Yes, her mothr was the editor. I first thought, as Natalie thought, that it was very easy to get a book published, just write a story, call the company or something, and it can be published. But actually you first have to find an agent, then an editor in the company，then publish it. It’s actually way harder than it sounds. I got The School Story from the class library. I have read Frindle. I also think it is Andrew Clements’ best book. I really liked it. I am now reading Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator, by Roald Dahl. It is the sequel to Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. It’s about Charlie’s family and Mr. Wonka having many adventures in Mr. Wonka’s glass elevator. Dahl is funny, and he is very creative with writing and wording. Right now, I am reading Maximum Ride: the Angel Experiment, by James Patterson. It is about a group of lab-mutated teenagers and children trying to save the world. The Flock are really cool, they have wings and can fly. It would be awesome if I could have wings. I just finished MVP, by Douglass Evans. It is about 24 teams trying to go around the world in 40 days. Sincerely, Ben *** 2/22/2010 Dear Ben, Roald Dahl will be remembered as one of the greatest children’s book authors in the 20th century. His children’s books typically involve adult villains or villainesses who hate and mistreat children. Usually there’s at least one “good” adult. Dahl says he was mistreated by teachers and headmasters and headmistresses at boarding school, so he had to write about it in a humorous way. Tell me more about MVP by Evans. What are the rules of the contest? Did you recognize any of the places?Sincerely,Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（十一）
12月8日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 在这本书里，约翰想相信电脑游戏只是游戏， 并没有真的发生战争。但外星人的首领认为这是真的，战争是很不好的，如果他们投降的话，就不会有更多外星人或地球人死亡。 约翰学到的道理是：战争是毁灭性的，能伤害很多人。另外，战争不是游戏。 现在我在读《斧头》， 作者：盖瑞-珀森。 这本书讲述一个叫布莱恩的男孩迫降到了加拿大湖泊里后，怎么样独自一人凭着一把斧头在湖边的树林中生存下来。 布莱恩发现了一种浆果，吃了以后肚子会痛，会泻。但如果是我的话，哪怕像他那么饥饿，我还是会把果核吐掉的，而不是像他那样全部吞下去。 我认为布莱恩很聪明。比如他知道怎么生火。 他知道用什么做燃料，怎么吹火。他还做了一根鱼叉，但那根鱼叉不好用。我认为他将做一根更好的鱼叉，或找到一种新方法捕鱼。 现在我在读《布莱恩的冬天》，是《斧头》的续集。讲的是如果在《斧头》的`结尾布莱恩没有被救的话他将会怎么样。 您的学生， 冰 *** 月14日 亲爱的冰， 布莱恩勇敢又聪明。 他也从失败中吸取教训了。他认识到他应该停止自怜，没有任何人能帮助他活下来。他需要完全靠自己。 他经历了哪些失败和挫折？他又赢得了哪些胜利？重新回到社会中后他是怎么适应的？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 12/8/ Dear Ms. Emma, In this book, Johnny wants to believe that the computer game is not real, just a game, not war of anything. But the Captain of the ScreeWee fleet thinks war is very bad and knows that less people would die if they surrendered, human, or ScreeWee. A lesson Johnny learned is that war is very destructible and can harm lots of people. Also, war is not a game. Right now, I am reading Hatchet, by Gary Paulsen. It is about a boy named Brian who crash-landed in a Canadian lake and tried to survive in the nearby woods, all alone, with his hatchet. Brian found a kind of berry that he called “gut cherries”, because it made his stomach ache and caused him to have diarrhea. Even if I were as hungry as he was, I think I would still have at least spit out the pit, instead of swallowing them whole like he did. I still think Brian is pretty smart like when he made the fire. He knew what kind of fuel to make, and how to blow the fire. He also made a fishing spear, but that didn’t work. I think he is going to try to make a better one or maybe find a new way to catch fish. Right now I am reading Brian’s Winter, one of the sequels to Hatchet. It is about what would happen if Brian hadn’t been rescued at the end of Hatchet. Your student, Ben *** 12/14/2009 Dear Ben, Brian is brave and smart; but he certainly learned from his mistakes. He also learned that he needed to stop feeling sorry for himself and understand that no one can help him survive. He needs to do that on his own. What were some of his mistakes, or setbacks? What were some of his triumphs? How did he handle returning to the real world? Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（十九）
3月2日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 在这个系列的第一本书里，马克西姆从一群持枪歹徒手里救了一个叫艾拉的女孩。马克西姆受了很重的伤，艾拉把她带回家， 在那里马克西姆遇到了艾拉的母亲，后来发现艾拉的母亲也是她自己的生母。 我不知道到底为什么马克西姆必须拯救世界，不过她好像命中注定是要拯救世界的。她要把世界从污染，全球变暖等灾害中挽救出来。 我不知道他们是怎么被追踪的。 你理解得不错，但她还需要拯救世界。 我刚读完《丹尼尔危险的日子》，作者是詹姆斯-帕特森和迈克尔-莱德维奇。 这本书讲述一个叫丹尼尔的男孩，他的父母被外星人谋杀了，他一心想要消灭所有坏的外星人。 丹尼尔力量只有三级水平，而他追杀的'坏外星人之一赛斯具有七级的速度和七级的力量。但丹尼尔极其聪明。在书的结尾， 他引赛斯上钩，变成虱子，爬进赛斯的头里，然后变为大象，杀死了赛斯。 我刚读完凯特-迪卡米罗的著作《因为温迪》。 这本书讲述一只叫温迪的狗如何改变了奥普尔的人生。 我认为凯特-迪卡米罗经历过一些悲惨的事，所以她的书里有那么多伤悲。我觉得她想如果温迪永远走失了的话，这个故事太悲哀了，所以她让奥普尔和牧师找回了温迪。 真诚的， 冰 *** 203月8日 亲爱的冰， 所有伟大的作家都从他们的经历里吸取灵感。我肯定她认识像奥普尔那样的孩子，也认识像格洛丽亚，牧师那样的人。 这本书被拍成电影了。 你看过那个电影吗？ 请对书的主题之一进行评论：友谊，希望，新的开始，相依相伴。 你读过凯特-迪卡米罗写的其他书吗？ 你想读的话我这里有。 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 3/2/ Dear Ms. Emma, In the first book in the series, Max rescued a girl named Ella from a bunch of big mean bullies with guns. But she was hurt bad so Ella took Max into her house where Max met Ella’s mom, which she later found out was her own mom too. I don’t know exactly why Max has to save the world, only that she was somehow destined to save the world. She needs to try to save it from pollution and global warming and stuff like that. I don’t know how they are tracked. Close enough, but she also needs to save the world. I just finished The Dangerous Days of Daniel X, by James Petterson & Michael Ledwidge. It is about a boy named Daniel whose parents were murdered by aliens and so he tries to destroy all of the bad aliens. Daniel only has Level 3 strength, but he is smart. In the end when he killed Ergent Seth, who had Level 7 speed and Level 7 strength, he baited Seth, then turned into a tick, crawled inside Seth’s head, then turned into an elephant. I just finished Because of Winn-Dixie, by Kate DiCamillo. It is about how a dog named Winn-Dixie changes Opal’s life. I think Kate DeCamillo has a fair share of sadness, maybe that’s why she made so much sad stuff in the story I think she thought the story would be too sad if Winn-Dixie was lost forever so she made Opal and the Preacher find Winn-Dixie. Sincerely, Ben *** 3/8/2010 Dear Ben, All great authors draw on the past for inspiration. I’m sure she knew a kid or two like Opal, as well as a Gloria Dump and someone like the Preacher. The book was made into a movie. Have you seen it? Please comment on one of the themes of the book: friendship, hope, new beginnings, companionship. Have you read other books by Kate Dicamillo? I have others you can read. Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（二十四）
2010年4月6日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 马特懂得了土著人永远都不会做鲁滨逊做过的一些事。马特给埃廷上课后，埃廷教他怎么设陷阱，怎么钓鱼，以及其他许多本领。 我刚读完克雷西达-考威尔所著的《怎样成为海盗》。赫卡普想要寻找宝藏。最后他确实找到了他的曾曾祖父的宝藏。但他把所有宝藏原封不动留在了原来的山洞里，并把它作为一个秘密。我认为他做得非常正确。 我现在在读克里斯-德兰西的《冰火》， 里边有一个伯格斯医生非常神秘。我认为他也知道龙的事。 我还在读《河狸的信号》。我认为马特将永远感谢埃廷， 因为埃廷把所有的`本事都教给了他，比如：怎样做鱼钩，怎样做弓箭，怎样在森林里做记号以防迷路。 马特决定留下来过冬，等待他的父亲。 我认为他做得很对。如果我是他，我也会这样做。 真诚的， 冰 *** 2010年4月20日 亲爱的冰， 我总是质疑马特留下来的决定。我知道他非常爱他的家人，对家人很忠心。 我觉得他应该跟埃廷走。他可以在小木屋里给家人留一张纸条，解释他去哪里了，为什么离开。这样，如果他的父亲真的赶回来了，可以去找他。 我认为马特表现得更像是印第安男孩，而不像白人男孩。 你看过《驯龙记》这部电影吗？ 我刚订购了克雷西达-考威尔的又一本书，但我忘记是哪本了！ 给我多讲讲《冰火》这本书。 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 4/6/2010 Dear Ms. Emma, Matt learns that a native would probably never do some of the things that Robinson Crusoe said he did. Attean also shows him how to make snares and fish and other things after his lessons. I just finished How to be a Pirate, by Cressida Cowell. It is about Hiccup trying to find treasure. In the end Hiccup did find the treasure of his great-great-grandfather, Grimbeard the Ghastly. I think Hiccup made a good choice. He left all the treasure inside the cave where he found it, and kept the treasure a secret. I am reading Icefire, by Chris d’Lacey. There is a guy named Dr. Bergstrom that is really mysterious. I think he also knows about the dragons. I am reading The Sign of The Beaver. I think Matt will be grateful to Attean for showing him all those tricks, like how to make a fishing hook, how to make bows and arrows, and how to mark his way in the forest so he doesn’t get lost. I think Matt made the right decision to stay and wait for his father. If I were him, I would too. Sincerely, Ben *** 4/20/2010 Dear Ben, I always questioned Matt’s decision to stay. He was committed to his family and loved them very much. I felt Matt should have gone with Attean. He could have left a note for his family in his cabin explaining where he is and why he left. That way if his dad did make it back, he could search for Matt. I think Matt was behaving more like an Indian than a colonial boy. Did you see the movie, How to Train a Dragon? I just ordered one more Cressida Cowell book, but I can’t remember which one! Tell me more about IceFire. Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（十五）
1月26日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 外星人是真的。最初凯特和她的朋友以为有人和她们开玩笑。 但后来她们改变了想法，和BB-9见了面。 我学到的关于印刷业的`知识是：印刷很辛苦，印一张报纸需要很长时间。现在打印一份东西容易多了，我们只要会用电脑就可以了。 我现在在读克里斯多夫－鲍里尼的《帝国》。 因为有艾瑞冈和他的龙，以及其他的魔术师们，沃顿族力量很强大。如果那时有人知道怎么造机关枪和炸弹等，他们可以很容易把罪恶帝国打败。 当然这样会严重地污染空气。 艾瑞冈发现他是莫赞的儿子，莫塔的弟弟。 莫赞是个邪恶的龙骑士，帮助卡布托夺取了政权。莫塔也是龙骑士。虽然莫塔一有机会就想杀了艾瑞冈，我认为艾瑞冈不会杀莫塔，哪怕他因此有生命危险， 他不喜欢杀人。 真诚的， 冰 *** 202月1日 亲爱的冰， 你花了多长时间读完《伊拉龙》和《长老》的？ 《帝国》比那两本书长一点吗？ 艾瑞冈不可能十全十美。每个伟大的人物都有缺点。 他的缺点是什么？ 艾瑞冈是个英雄，他走上了反抗恶势力的路。书里部份情节可以猜得出来。什么情节让你大吃一惊了？ 如果必要的话，你会不会杀人？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 1/26/ Dear Ms. Emma, The alien was real. At first Kate and her friend Linda, thought it was just someone playing a practical joke on them. But then they changed their mind when they met BB-9. What I’ve learned about the printing business is that it is hard work and takes a lot of time to print one newspaper. It is a lot easier now if we want to type something. We can just use computers. I am reading Brisingr, by Christopher Paolini. The Varden are very strong with Eragon and Saphira and the other magicians. I think if a person discovered how to make machine guns and bombs and stuff, they could defeat the Empire easily. Except then it would pollute the air a lot. Eragon learned that he was the son of Morzan, an evil Dragon Rider that helped Calbatorix rise to power, and brother of Murtagh, another Dragon Rider. I think that even though Murtagh would kill Eragon whenever he had the change, Eragon wouldn’t kill Murtagh, even if his own life depended on it. He doesn’t like killings. Sincerely, Ben *** 2/1/2010 Dear Ben, How long on average did you take to read Eragon and Eldest? Is Brisingr longer? Eragon can’t be perfect. Every great character has flaws. What are his? Eragon is a hero on a journey who is up against a villain. Parts of it may seem predictable. What really did surprise you? Would you kill if you had to? Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（二十五）
2010年4月20日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 是的，我星期四看了这部电影。 我很喜欢这部电影，但电影跟书的内容完全不一样。 《冰火》讲述了冰火是什么， 怎么来的。冰火是从最后一条活龙火泪里产生的。 它的火泪使北极的一大片水域结成冰，变成现在的冰帽。北极冰帽里的冰就是冰火。 我现在在读克里斯-德兰西的《永恒的火焰》。这本书里的故事发生在《火焰星》之后五年。我注意到每个人都成熟了很多，特别是大卫，他看上去更智慧，更博学了。 我认为《永恒的火焰》没有《火焰星》好。我把这套书按最好到最差排了一下：《火焰星》，《冰火》，《永恒的火焰》，《内心的火焰》。 这套书跟我最初想的不一样。当我读《内心的火焰》时，我以为书里不会有很多动作情节，但事实上有很多。 我现在在读《艾米和不可思议的缩鼠》。这本书的'题目和封面都不怎么样，但内容非常好。 它讲述一只很粗野的老鼠，能把人缩小。 我认为他们应该把封面设计得更吸引人。 真诚的， 冰 *** 2010年4月26日 亲爱的冰， 你给克里斯-德兰西的书的排序很好，我喜欢。 你是按照它们的动作来排列的，对吧？越多的动作，你越喜欢？大多数人都是这样的。 读完一本书后认真思考一下是个极好的习惯。 评价， 领会，融会贯通，记住最重要的部分，记住这本书是怎么使你快乐的， 等等。。。 以下是我的发现：我每次读完一本极妙的书， 会发现下一本书永远不够好， 不管是什么书。。。哪怕下一本书也极棒！ 我对后读的书和作者感到很抱歉， 然后会想我先读第二本书就好了， 这样我会觉得第二本书好看点。 你认为克里斯-德兰西应该怎样写《内心的火焰》才能让它好看点？提点具体建议。 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 4/20/2010 Dear Ms. Emma, Yes, I saw it on Thursday. I liked it, but it was totally different from the book. In Icefire, it tells what the Icefire is, and how it was made. The Icefire was made from the last real dragon’s Firetear. The Firetear froze up a whole bunch of water in the north which is now the ice cap. So the ice from the ice cap is Icefire. I am reading The Fire Eternal, by Chris d’Lacey. The setting in this book is five years after Fire Star. I noticed that everybody seems more mature. Especially David, he seems more wise and knowledgeable. I think The Fire Eternal isn’t as good as Fire Star. Here’s how I rate the books in the series (best to worst): Fire Star, Icefire, The Fire Eternal, The Fire Within. The series is different than I first thought it would be. When I read The Fire Within, I thought there wasn’t going to be much action, but actually there’s a lot. I am reading Emmy and the Incredible Shrinking Rat. The title doesn’t sound good and the cover doesn’t look good but it’s actually very good. It’s about a rat who is very rude and can shrink people. I think they should make the cover more attractive. It doesn’t look very exciting. Sincerely, Ben *** 4/26/2010 Dear Ben, I like how you rated Chris d’Lacey’s books. I believe you rated them according to action. Right? The more action, the better for you? That would be true for most people. It’s always a great idea to reflect on a book after you finish it. Rage it, digest it, remember the most important parts, remember how you were entertained, etc. Here’s what I’ve found …… whenever I’ve finished a fantastic book, the next book I read, no matter what, is never great … even if it is!!! I feel bad for those books and authors. Then I wished I had read that book first. I’d feel better about it. What do you wish Chris D’Lacey had done in The Fire Within to improve on it, in your opinion? Be specific. Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（八）
11月10日 亲爱的爱玛老师， “大象的孩子”叙述了为什么现在每只大象都有长鼻子。 在“蛾和星星”里，小蛾因为想飞向星星，而不想往灯上飞，所以没有早死。它的寓意是如果你怀有远大的目标，你的生活将更美好。 我已经把这本书里的故事都读完了。 我刚读完《福尔摩斯历险记》。 在这本书里的所有故事里，我最喜欢“海军协定”这一篇， 因为这一篇最神秘。偷海军协定的小偷是我根本没想到的.一个人，但福尔摩斯太聪明了，找到了小偷。 我也刚把杰夫-斯通写的《鹰》读完了。这是“五个祖先”系列小说中的第五本。“五个祖先”系列小说共有七本书：《虎》，《猴》，《蛇》，《鹤》，《鹰》，《鼠》，和《龙》。 这本书讲鹰的故事。他是一个功夫战士，却想变成龙。 (在前一本书《鹤》里，鹰从监狱里逃了出来。) 他有一张寻宝图，于是他和虎，马骝（猴），鹤，查尔斯（一个荷兰人）以及他们的间谍小鼠一起去找宝藏。但当他们到目的地，却发现螳螂已经取得宝物了。 在鹤的影响下，鹰改变了很多。 他以前暴怒，自私，傲慢，到处恐吓别人。 现在他不大容易生气了，也没有那么骄傲自大。 我认为他，虎，猴和鹤变成了一个所向无敌的团队。 您的学生， 冰 *** 月17日 亲爱的冰， 我很高兴看到你能注意到书里人物性格的改变。 有些人物慢慢地在改变，有些在书的末尾改变。 书的结尾是怎样的？ 作者是怎样阐述他的主题的？ 《养女基里》的作者凯塞琳-帕特森出生在中国。 我想你可能对这点感兴趣。她的父母曾是传教士。 你认为在书的前三分之一，基里喜欢任何人吗？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 注：《养女基里》是冰儿刚读完的另一本书，虽然他没有把这本书写进读后感里，但他的书单上列出了这本书。老师看到了，就告诉他关于作者的背景资料。 *** 11/10/ Dear Ms. Emma, “The Elephant’s Child” describes why every elephant nowadays all have long noses. In “The Moth and The Star”, the child moth wants to fly to the star, instead of flying to the lamp. Therefore he didn’t die young. The moral of it is that if you have a large goal in life, you will live better and longer. I’ve read all the stories now. I just finished Adventures of Sherlock Homes. In all the stories in the book, I think The Naval Treaty was the best. I like it because it is the most mysterious one. The thief who stole The Naval Treaty was a man who I didn’t even suspect, but Sherlock Holmes was clever enough to discover him. I also just finished Eagle, by Jeff Stone. It is the 5th book in “The Five Ancestors” series. There are seven books in this series: Tiger, Monkey, Snake, Crane, Eagle, Mouse, and Dragon. This book is about Ying, an eagle kung fu warrior who wants to be a dragon. (He escaped from the prison in the previous book, Crane. ) He has a treasure map, and together he and Fu, Malao, Hok, Charles (from Holland), and Shaosha, their spy, go in search of the treasure. But when they there, they find Tonglong already with the treasure. Ying changed a lot while in the influence of Hok. He used to always be angry, selfish, arrogant, and spewing threats all over the place. Now he doesn’t get angry that often anymore, and less arrogant. I think he and Fu, Maolao, and Hok are an unbeatable team. Your student, Ben *** 11/17/2009 Dear Ben, I like how you notice that characters change in books. Some characters change throughout the book and others change by the end. What was the resolution to your book? How does the author share his message or theme? Katherine Paterson, the author of The Great Gilly Hopkins, was born in China. I thought you would find that interesting. Her parents were Christian missionaries. Do you think there is anyone Gilly likes in the first third of the book? Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（十）
2009年12月1日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 没有，菲比没有让我联想到任何人。像她这样的很难与之相处。 罗伊先生（黛西的朋友）要去外地，托黛西照看他的狗，所以狗狗必须跟着黛西一起上学。 结尾很好笑。狗狗每隔半个小时应该被喂一片锌片，但罗伊先生忘记告诉黛西了。当躲在柜子里的狗狗被发现时，黛西和朋友们以为大祸临头了，因为学校不许学生带毛茸茸的动物上学。但尽管菲比的妈妈对着副校长大喊大叫，副校长却不能处罚黛西他们，因为他们没有违反任何校规 --- 因为太久没有吃锌片，狗狗身上的毛掉光了，它不再是毛茸茸的动物了。 我刚读完西摩-西蒙写的《你看到了，你又看不到了 C 神奇的光学假象》。 我非常喜欢这本书，尤其是书里所有的光学幻象的照片。有一些照片太古怪了，让我忍不住发笑。我最喜欢的照片是：从一个角度你看到一个女孩，换个角度看是个女巫。 我现在在读派屈克-卡门的《阿瑟顿：火河》。这本书充满悬念，特别好看。它是关于塞穆尔，伊萨贝尔，埃德加，文森特和肯可先生寻找哈丁博士（阿瑟顿的创造者）的故事。 哈丁博士其实就是菲尼斯勋爵 ， 阿瑟顿凶残的统治者。哈丁博士的理智锁在菲尼斯勋爵头脑里了，但肯可先生把他解救了出来。 我刚读完特里-普拉特所著的《只有你才能救人类》。这本书讲述一个叫约翰的男孩玩一款“只有你才能救人类”的电脑游戏。游戏里边有外星人，你应该向他们射击，杀了他们。但当约翰玩到最高级别时，外星人向他投降了，他有了个新任务：带领外星人逃亡，越过游戏的界面，进入真实的`世界。 我认为外星人的首领很聪明。她看到外星人跟人类打仗时所遭遇的一切，于是决定投降。如果他们投降的话，她的战士们有可能活下来，但如果继续抵抗，每个外星人都会死亡。 您的学生， 冰 *** 2009年12月7日 亲爱的冰， 看来最近你读了很多好书啊。特里-普拉特的《只有你才能救人类》看上去是一个每个男孩都希望发生在自己身上的科幻故事：玩电脑游戏，让游戏变成真的，然后拯救世界。 外星人肯定爱约翰。 他就像他们的救世主一样。他把他们带回安全地带。 这本书怎么看待战争和打仗的？约翰学到了什么道理？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 12/1/2009 Dear Ms. Emma, No, Fibby doesn’t remind me of anybody. They are hard to be around. The dog had to come to school because Mr. Roy, Daisy’s friend, needed to go somewhere and she had to take care of Wheezy, the dog. The ending was very funny. They were supposed to give Wheezy zinc pills every half an hour, but Mr. Roy forgot to mention it to Daisy. When Wheezy was caught inside Daisy’s locker, they all thought they were doomed, because of the NFA (No Furry Animals) rule. But even though Ulna (Fibby’s mother) was yelling and screaming at assistant principal Snout, he couldn’t do anything, because they actually hadn’t broken the rule C Wheezy’s fur all fell out already, since he hadn’t taken zinc pills for so long. I just finished Now You See It, Now You Don’t: The Amazing World of Optical Illusions, by Seymour Simon. I really like the book, and all the pictures of optical illusions inside it. Some are so weird that it makes me laugh. My favorite picture is a girl or an old witch, depending how you look at it. I am reading Atherton: Rivers of Fire, by Patrick Carman. The book is full of suspense, which makes it very good. It is about Samuel, Isabel, Edgar, Vincent, and Dr. Kincaid, finding Dr. Harding, the creator of Atherton. Dr. Harding was actually Lord Phineus, who was the cruel ruler of Atherton. Dr. Harding had locked his mind inside of Lord Phineus, but Dr. Kincaid unlocked Dr. Harding’s mind. I just finished Only You Can Save Mankind, by Terry Pratchett. It is about a boy named Johnny Maxwell who is playing a computer game called Only You Can Save Mankind. Inside the game, there are aliens, whom you are supposed to shoot and kill. But when Johnny reaches the last level, the aliens surrendered to him, and so he had a new task C to try to lead the ScreeWee alien fleet past the Border from game space into real space. I think the Captain is pretty smart. She saw everything that happened to the aliens who tried to fight the humans, so she decided to surrender. If she surrendered, some of her fleet might be able to make it, but if she fought, everyone would die. Sincerely, Ben *** 12/7/2009 Dear Ben, Looks like you have been reading a lot of great books lately. Only You Can Save Mankind by Terry Pratchett seems like a science fiction book every boy wishes would happen to him: play a computer game, have it become real, and try to save the world. The ScreeWee must love Johnny. He’s like their savior. He has come to lead them back to safety. What does your book say about war and fighting? What is a lesson that Johnny learned? Sincerely, Ms. Emma美国小学生的读后感（二十一）
2010年3月16日 亲爱的爱玛老师， 威尔认识到“三脚人”在夺走他们的自由，把他们变成奴隶。他还发现他可以打败“三脚人”，为人类把自由夺回来。 我现在在读《阿尔弗德：所罗门的封印》。 书里有一个神秘的组织，叫“OIPEP”， 它使用许许多多的代号。比如，每个人都知道他们的敌人马克-阿诺德的名字，但仍然叫他“鬣狗”。 我现在在读《金和铅的城市》，这是《白山》的`续集。在《白山》里，威尔，亨利和毕珀从英格兰向南到法国，在白山里藏身。 我很好奇那里是不是真有那么一个山脉。 我现在在读《内心的火焰》。这是克里斯-德兰西写的“最后一条龙的传奇”丛书中的第一本书。描写一群陶土制的龙变成活龙的故事。 真诚的， 冰 *** 2010年3月22日 亲爱的冰， 法国有一座山叫布兰克山，被称作“白山”。它高15782英尺，是西欧最大的山。1929年的第一届冬季奥林匹克运动会就在这座山附近的查莫尼克斯镇举办。 《金和铅的城市》像《白山》一样好看吗？ 他们三人在法国过得怎么样？ 在《内心的火焰》里，土龙怎么会变活的？为什么？ 真诚的， 爱玛老师 *** 3/16/2010 Dear Ms. Emma, Will realized that the Tripods were taking away freedom and basically enslaving them. I also think he realized that he could, actually, defeat the Tripods and bring freedom back to humans. I am reading Alfred Kropp: The Seal of Solomon. There is a secret organization called OIPEP, and it uses tons of code names. Like their enemy Mike Arnold, everybody knows his name but still calls him the “Hyena”. I am reading The City of Gold and Lead, the sequel to The White Mountains. In The White Mountains, Will, Henry, and Beanpole travel south from England to France and take refuge in the White Mountains. I wonder if there is actually a real mountain range there. I am reading The Fire Within. It is the first book in the Last Dragon Chronicles, by Chris d’Lacey. It is about a bunch of clay dragons coming to life. Sincerely, Ben *** 3/22/2010 Dear Ben, There is a mountain in France called Mont Blanc, which means “White Mountain”. It is 15,782 feet and is the largest mountain in Western Europe. The first winter Olympics were held in the town of Chamonix (near the mountain) in 1929. Is City of Gold and Lead as good as The White Mountains? What was life like for the three of them in France? Can you explain how and why the clay dragons come to life in The Fire Within? Sincerely, Ms. Emma★ 美国房东读后感
