Unit 6 Nobody wins(1) 单元话题阅读理解练习 Book report by Kirstin Bowman, Class 9A A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle I have chosen to write my book report on A Wrinkle in Time, a science-fiction novel by Madeleine L’Engle. It tells the story of a thirteen-year-old girl called Meg Murry who travels through space with her little brother Charles to find their father. He is a scientist who has gone missing. Meg and Charles meet a mysterious old woman called Mrs Whatsit. She says that she knows where their father is—he’s a prisoner on a far-away planet called Camazotz. She says she can help them travel through space to save him. Mrs Whatsit has two strange friends, Mrs Who and Mrs Which, and the three women travel with the children. On Camazotz, Mr Murry is a prisoner of IT, a powerful, evil creature who rules the planet. The children and their friends are able to free Mr Murry, but then IT catches Charles. With the help of Mrs Whatsit, Mrs Who, and Mrs Which, Meg is finally able to free Charles. A Wrinkle in Time is an exciting story of goodness fighting against evil. I like the characters in the book. At first Meg is not confident, but she learns that her love for her family makes her strong. Charles is very clever and brave too. Mrs Whatsit and her two friends are funny and wise. The book has some interesting scientific ideas in it, too. I enjoy reading about how they are able to quickly travel long distances through space.
