Module 7 Great books
Unit 1 We’re still influenced by Confucius’s ideas
Mr Jackson: Hello, Betty. What’s up?
Betty: I want to join an Internet group todiscuss great books by great writers.
Mr Jackson: So, who are your great writers?
Betty: Well, maybe Confucius and Shakespeare.
Mr Jackson: Really? I accept that they’re great because their works are still readby many people today. But I think I’d describe Confucius more as a teacher andthinker than a writer. He was a very wise man. What do you have to do for thediscussion?
Betty: Well, each of us reads a favourite bookand writes a review for the discussion.
Mr Jackson: Isee. We’re still influenced by Confucius’s ideas, and Shakespeare’s plays alsomake a lot of sense to us today. People have always read, and will always readgreat books. By the way, what do you think of Mark Twain, the great Americanwriter in the nineteenth century?
Betty: Hewas important, but I suppose he isn’t as well-known as Confucius orShakespeare.
Mr Jackson: No,but his books are still popular, and one of his books is my favourite, TheAdventure of Tom Sawyer.
Betty: Great! Why don’t you join in thediscussion and tell us about it?
