　　Describe a book you recently read.

　　You should say

　　what book it was

　　when you read it

　　why you read it

　　and explain what you liked and disliked about the book.

　　what book it was

　　As you may know, many Chinese people love complex love stories and the is perhaps the most popular and well-developed of them.

　　when you read it

　　I have read the whole novel from the beginning to the end only once 3 months ago, but I like it and I felt myself loss when I finished that novel. I lingered at the last few chapters for long enough to get myself back to a normal life.

　　why you read it

　　It tells us the difference between Chinese literature and Western literature. At the end of each chapter, there is always a line which says if the reader wants to know what happens next, please read the next chapter. The line suggests that these chapters were each written separately over a period of time, thus, it functions as a reminder for readers to wait for the next chapter. These were the most developed stages of Chinese fiction writing.

　　And explain what you liked about the book

　　Moreover, the reason for the novels outstanding reputation and distinguishable status is that the novel is the direct way to learn about Chinese culture. You cannot read Laozi or Confucius to understand Chinese society and Chinese people, while the book is the shortcut. Therefore, the language used for this classical work is between formal and colloquial. In addition, the work was completed during Qing dynasty which is the last feudal empire in Chinese history, thus, the language is classical but also quite close to modern Chinese; it is intelligible for Chinese readers without any footnotes. Furthermore, exaggerated expressions are frequently used in the original text to show the authors irony towards the society.

　　Another sample answer:

　　what book it was

　　Dream of the Red Mansions, written in the 18th century, is undoubtedly one of the most distinguishable classical novels of Chinese literature. The story has been made into numerous mini series and TV operas.

　　when you read it

　　I have read it several times, and have it handy in my palm in case I want to read it. I think I read it the first time when I was in middle school and it was kind of difficult . But then it got easier and easier. You have to read it and know the stories and the poems because they are so frequently quoted.

　　why you read it

　　I deeply love the romance between the characters, thats why I read it that often. I dont know much about the English version but itd be definitely difficult to translate this novel into any other languages. I wonder how one can translate the puns which expressed some deeper meaning, or probably the best way is to skip it or giving some footnotes .

　　And explain what you liked about the book

　　The main character is Baoyu , and his love interest is his cousin Daiyu , who is the daughter of his aunt . Baoyu finally marries another cousin Baochai . Baoyu, before he comes to this world, was a rock/jade, and Daiyu a plant. The rock used to water the plant. So Daiyu has to pay back the debt to Baoyu with all her tears in this life. The poems I like best are the two which foretell their fates in Baoyus dream.

　　And the scene before Daiyu dies, when she buries the fallen flowers, is very very very famous, called 黛玉葬花.

　　And theres another famous poem called 紅豆詞, which has been made into a song. Just the other day I was listening to it at a fashion boutique.

　　I could go on and on.

　　滿紙荒唐言，一把辛酸淚。都云作者癡，誰解其中味?

　　都道是金玉良緣，俺只念木石前盟。空對著山中高士晶瑩雪，終不忘世外仙姝寂寞林。嘆人間美中不足今方信，縱然齊眉舉案，到底意難平。

　　一個是閬苑仙葩，一個是美玉無瑕。

　　若說沒奇緣，今生偏又遇著他;

　　若說有奇緣，如何心事終虛化

　　一個枉子嗟呀，一個空勞牽掛。

　　一個是水中月，一個是鏡中花。

　　想眼中能有多少淚珠兒，

　　怎禁得秋流到冬，春流到夏!

　　說到辛酸處，荒唐愈可悲，由來同一夢，休笑世人癡。
