The text
The story of Victor Frankenstein.
I was born in Switzerland, in the city of Geneva where my family had been important for
many years. My father married his best friend's daughter. It was a most happy marriage and my
parents shared their love with me.
My mother hoped to have a daughter, but for five years I was their only child. Then my
parents took me on holidays to Italy, and we spent a week on shores of Lake Como.
One day we were out for a walk in the countryside and my mother saw a very small house
and a number of thin poorly clothed children playing in front of it. We could see that the family
had very little money, and that the children were hungry. My mother went and spoke to the
farmworker and his wife who lived in the house. Four of the children had the dark hair and eyes
of their parents. The fifth was a little girl, and she was very fair, with hair of gold and blue eyes.
The woman told my mother that this little girl was the daughter of an Italian nobleman
who had given them the child to look after when his wife died. The nobleman paid them well but
soon he died and left nothing to the little girl. However, the kind farmworker and his wife had
brought her up, though there was hardly enough for their own children.
So my parents adopted the little girl.

My favourite writer.
My name is John, I am thirteen years old. I live in England, in Nottingham. I am fond of reading
English literature. We've got a big home library. My favourite writer is Charles Dickens. He was
bom in 1812 and lived till 1 870. He is one of England's greatest writers. At a young age Dickens
was forced to work in a factory under terrible conditions. The boy's childhood was very hard and
sad. Then Dickens worked as a reporter in law courts and later for London newspapers. In 1837
be published his comic novel "The Pickwick Papers" which made him popular. A long line of
successful novels followed: "Oliver Twist" (1837), "A Christmas Carol" (1843), "A Tale of Two
Cities" (1859) and "Great Expectations" (1861). Dickens saw all the social evils of the English
society and they worried him greatly. I'd like to point to the most favourite books of mine written
by this famous writer. The first one is a novel "David Copperfield" which he wrote in 1849 -
1850. This novel is partly based on Dickens's early life and his struggle to become a writer. The
characters in the book were actual people Dickens knew while many adventures of the hero,
David Copperfield, were part of his own experience as a young boy. Another novel which is
worth reading is "A Christmas Carol". It's a wonderful story written by Dickens more than a
century and a half ago. The writer wanted to show that love, care and patience: were much,
stronger that greediness, anger and hatred. People of all generations and of all times should
remember about it
