Jack loves to read a book each night. He reads all day. He reads at night. Jack’s books are here and there. He can not even find his chair. He can not see which clothes to wear.
“That’s enough!” His mother says, “Clean up these books and get to bed!”
“Clean them up? But how? Right now? What should I do? How do I move（移动）them all from here?”
“Wait! What is this book I see here? Hmmmm... How To Make A Library! I can organize（整理）by the writer’s name. That sounds like a real cool game! Organize them like the alphabet（字母表）. Or I could organize by the title （标题）, too. That’s no sweat! I’m sure I can do it.”
“All A titles. I’ll put here. This is great! Now I see! Next will come for B. This is really so much fun!”
Following these rules, Jack organizes them one by one. He sorts（分类）them all from A to Z. He organizes them happily. His mother is also happy.
“Books are great,” says Jack with a smile, “They help me make a library!”

Enjoy ‘wuxia’ legends
Have you ever read martial arts novels? Even if you haven’t, you’ve probably watched films or TV shows, or played computer games about these stories.
Martial arts novels are a big part of Chinese pop culture. Almost every Chinese knows about some characters or martial arts moves from these books. These books show a fantasy world called jianghu. Xia, or fighting heroes, live in jianghu. They do martial arts and fight for honor.
Legends of the Condor Heroes is one of the most famous martial arts novels. An English version of the book will come out in February. The book tells the story of Guo Jing. He is not a very talented young man. But he tries his best and becomes a hero to fight for his country.
The book is popular in China. But what about the English version? Will foreign readers enjoy jianghu, too?
Anna Holmwood, from the UK, is the translator of the book. She doesn’t think this will be a problem. Western people read stories about knights and novels like The Three Musketeers, she says. These stories are very much like martial arts novels.
Some people may think jianghu is too foreign for Westerners. However, people around the world can enjoy the love, loyalty and honor in the stories, Holmwood wrote in her book.
Some translations from the book
The translator Anna Holmwood has a British father and a Swedish mother. She speaks English and Swedish. She used to study history at the University of Oxford. She began to learn Chinese in 2005. Later, she spent five years translating the first part of Legends of the Condor Heroes.

【推荐3】When I was a grade 9 student, I often felt tired and stressful (压力大的) because of the busy schoolwork. Slowly, I lost my confidence and even hope in my study. Thanks to a famous writer whose words shine with the beauty (美丽) of love and wisdom (智慧), I was saved from pain and hopelessness. Her name is Bi Shumin.
When I was reading her books, I felt something special burning in my heart. When I was sad, she told me, “In an imperfect life, mud (泥土) and sand are actually the raw materials (原料) of life.

Her soft but powerful words made me relaxed and finally I found my way out of sadness.
