Unit 1 Period 5 Writing & Presenting ideas 新 课 导 入 What is a book review? A book review, which is to review and introduce the articles of books, is to take the "book" as the object, analyze the form and content of the book realistically and insightfully, and explore the ideological, academic, intellectual and artistic features of creation, so as to build a communication way to exchange information among authors, readers and publishers. There are three steps in writing a short comment: introduction, evaluation and recommendation. 课 堂 学 习 1 Read the book review and find the information. The Little Prince was written and illustrated by the French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry during World War Ⅱ. It is a children’s fantasy book, but it is also enjoyed by adults. It tells a story about a pilot who has crashed in the desert. While he is trying to fix his aeroplane, a little prince comes to him. Visiting from another planet, the little prince recounts his adventures to the pilot, and the two become friends. The book talks about the importance of looking beneath the surface of things to uncover their real meanings. I like it because it is simple, and yet it really made me think a lot about life and death, love and responsibility, friendship and loneliness. One of the most memorable characters in the book is a rose, which the little prince fell in love with. I was really touched by the line - “It’s the time you spent on your rose that makes your rose so important.” - because it shows how we form special bonds with others by caring and taking responsibility for them. Personally, I think this is a touching book that everyone should read, whatever their age. • the title of the book: • the name of the author: • the genre: • a memorable character: • a quote from the book: The little Prince Antoine de Saint-Exupéry children’s fantasy a rose “It’s the time you spent on your rose that makes your rose so important.” 2 Read the book review again and answer the question
