Revised:
I think that War Horse is very helpful to students learning about the World War I. Because this book tells you a story about the friendship between a boy and a horse. The readers will be very interested by those two characters and they would like to know more about them as their friends. For example, if your best friend was in a football game, you would want to go and watch the game than going to a football game without anyone you know. As their friend, you will be more interested by World War I and you will spend more time on this topic.

I think that if H.G.Wells chose a nearer future instead of the year 802701, it will be less real for the readers. Such an extremity of the setting will give the readers space to imagine and they will think that this can really happen in the long, distant future. According to our history, the future within a few thousand years are still predictable. But if the setting is in the year 802701, we can’t really predict the future and what will happen, so H.G.Wells made us really think about the current social society structure.

H.G.Wells is so imaginative, he makes us think about what will happen in the future. Now, it seems like that we humans are working for the machines, rather than machines serving us. When the “Locomotion” was invented, we thought that the science can bring us many good things, which can save us from the hard working of the agriculture. But when I first read “The Time Machine”, I was shocked that maybe those machinery things might not be helping us eventually. Even though now we benefit a lot from the technology, I couldn’t help wondering about the future. What if we become slaves of the machines? What if the machines will pollute the earth and we will loose our home? What if we loose our freedom and we can just work and work for days?

I think that lying is not always wrong here with Lyra’s case, because sometimes her lies can help her defeat the villains. For example, when Mrs. Coulter wanted Lyra to give her the alethiometer, Lyra lied to her and handed her the old box that contained the “spying creatures” instead. If she didn’t lie and gave her the alethiometer, then Mrs. Coulter would use the alethiometer to do some more evil experiments on kid.

In a world called Northern Kingdom,the people there are all trapped in this boring world. No one except children has the curiosity to go to open the door to the other world, because it’s also dangerous. On a child’s eighteenth birthday, there will be a ceremony with witches, priests, and armored bears. They will perform some kind of operation to remove the child’s curiosity so that they will never want to go to the other world. One day Lyra and her brother Roger discovered this secret by overhearing the conversation of her parents. They also heard that the secret of how to escape this world is in an old book located in a desolated library. She and Roger decided to look for the book. They finally found that they need to collect the ultimate four elements———air, water, fire, and dust———so that they can use a magic spell to open the door to the other world. They also need to solve the mystery of the magic spell in the book. How can they overcome all the difficulties ahead of them? Will they succeed?
