I still remember the first day of fourth grade. Later that day, my teacher read us a chapter from The Witches by Roald Dahl. Instantly, I was impressed by Roald Dahl’s clever and amusing style of writing, as well as the complex details of his story. It was as if the writing had flown off the paper and been illustrated (插畫) into a picture book. To this day, I consider Roald Dahl my hero because of his exceptional play of words that has led me to understand the power of writing.
Through writing, Roald Dahl was able to show readers the wonderful but mysterious path of life. He shared with others the strong feelings of great success, joy, tragedy and violent anger. Reading his books is often like riding emotional roller coasters, where one moment, you are alongside the characters, laughing at their foolishness, but the next moment crying for their mistakes.
I remember when I first read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, a classic novel about a penniless family whose son, Charlie, found a golden ticket that changed their lives. The story was centered on how anyone has the chance for success, but unfortunately also the chances of letting their ego(自我) override their moral values (道德價值).Through Roald Dahl’s carefully planned plot, Charlie showed me the childish joys of life are often overlooked， when they are actually the foundations for success. He showed me the bitter realities of life, where sometimes, others will move on without you. But mostly, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory opened my eyes to the world of reading -- where there would always be a character by your side, guiding you through your own life journey.
Although I have never met Roald Dahl personally, I was able to understand and gain insight (洞察) into his personality through the characters he developed in his novels. Roald Dahl used his understandings to skillfully strengthen the characters’ thoughts and actions. Roald Dahl is my hero. He is able to put lifelong lessons and his brilliant imagination into a simple novel that can be understood by anybody.
Roald Dahl’ s writing is admirable not only because of his attractive and interesting stories, themes and characters, but also because of the great efforts he put into developing, his unique and individual style of writing.
1.What can we learn about Roald Dahl’ s writing?
A. It’ s full of illustrations.
B. It’ s humorous and vivid.
C. It’ s difficult to understand:
D. It’ s intended for adult readers.
2.What can we infer about Roald Dahl from Paragraph 2?
A. He enjoyed riding roller coasters.
B. He often created stupid characters.
C. He was easily affected by others’ feelings.
D. He could arouse strong emotions in readers.
3.What do we know about Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?
A. It deeply influences the author.
B. It talks about Charlie S weaknesses.
C. It s based on Roald Dahl s experiences.
D. It’ s Roald Dahl’ s most successful novel.
4.What does the author say about the characters Roald Dahl created?
A. They have strong beliefs.
B. They have simple thoughts.
C. They reflect Roald Dahl’ s inner world.
D. They are developed from Roald Dahl’s friends.
