2 . Jane Austen (1775—1817), an English novelist, started writing young and finished six novels in her life. Today Austen’s books are more popular than ever. In the last 10 years, five of her six novels have been made into Hollywood films, while her books continue to be best-sellers.
Richard Jenkyns, a professor of English at Oxford University, says that her novels are about marriage (婚姻), friendships and the family, which are still with us today. “The stories are timeless(永恒的),” Jenkyns said.
Pride and Prejudice (《傲慢与偏见》) is Austen’s most famous work. It is a love story about Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy. At first, these two dislike each other. Elizabeth is pretty, smart and lively. Mr. Darcy is handsome, rich and has a better family background. So he is proud. At the same time, Darcy holds a prejudice against the Bennet family. He has no understanding of why the family, especially its mother and daughters should try so hard to find wealthy and powerful(有钱有势的) husbands. He thinks they are vulgar. Anyway, Elizabeth and Darcy finally fall in love and become a romantic(浪漫的) couple but their families don’t want them to.
In Pride and Prejudice, some of the main things that Jane Austen wants to teach people are as follows. Opposites can attract(吸引)each other. Lovers should not only make each other feel relaxed or, comfortable, but also educate and improve each other.
Austen is often called the greatest romantic writer, so it is surprising she remained unmarried. “Maybe she was too romantic, waiting for the perfect man,” Jenkyns says.

It is quite rude for children or adults to bring electronic games, mobile phones, etc. to the dining table whether at home or in restaurants.
One of my worries is some adults leave their mobile phones on ringer (响铃装置) and have conversations next to me when I am trying to enjoy my meal. When people enter a restaurant, their mobile phones should be closed, on silence or on vibrating (震动). If they must answer a call they should excuse themselves from the table and go to the rest room to speak.
Children should be taught the art of conversation at a very early age when dining. They should not be allowed to interrupt (打断), but talk at the proper time. Some family-style restaurants provide coloring materials for young children to play with while they are waiting for their meals. This is a quiet activity and they can still have a conversation, too.
Some adults treat restaurants as offices and talk about business during their meals. When it bothers (打扰) others who are enjoying their meals quietly, then it should not be done.
The basic rule of having good manners is to treat others the way you like to be treated and that is with respect (尊重) and consideration.
Thank you for writing.
Yours,
Tony Black
