The control-reading for the oth formi pupils I. Read the first text and do the tasks,
My favourite writer.
My name ja Jam, I am thirteen years old. I live in England, in Nottingham, I am
fond of reading English literature. We've got a big home library. My favourile
writer ig Charles Dickens. He was born in 1812 and livexi till 1 870. He is stie of
England's greatest writers. At a young age Dickens was forced to work in a factors
undct terrible conditions. The boy's childhood was very hard and sad. Then
Dickens worked as a reporter in law courts and later for London newspapers. In
1837 he published his comic novel "The Pickwick Papers" which made
him
popular. A long line of successful novels followed: "Oliver Twist 1837), "A
Christirias Carol" (1843), "A Tale of Two Çilies" (1859) and "Great Expectations"
(1861). Dickens saw all the social evils of the English society and they worried
him greatly. I'd like to point to the most favourite books of mine written by this
famous writer. The first one is a novel "David Copperfield" which he vote in
1849 - 1850. This novel is partly based on Dickens's early life and his struggle to
become a writer. The characters in the book were actual people Dickens knew
while many adventures of the hero, David Copperfield, were part of his own
experience as a young boy. Another novel which is worth reading is "A Christmas
Carol". It's a wonderful story written by Dickens more than a century and a hall
ago. The writer wanted to show that love, care and patience: weię muci, sironger
that greediness, anger and hatred. People of all generations and of all times should
Terncmber about il.
