书 关于书的成语关于读书的排比句社区图书漂流公约怎么写关于读书的小报汉书pdf 吗？那是一本叙述汤姆‧苏儿和我的故事书。汤姆是我的挚友。　　故事是这样的：汤姆和我发现盗贼藏在一个洞穴中的一笔钱，于是我们发了财。我和汤姆每人得到六千元。撒切尔法官知道这件事时，便说：『我来替你们保管这些钱。我每天给你们一块钱。小孩子钱太多并不是好事。』道格拉斯寡妇把我当自己儿子看待。她说：『哈克，留在我身边吧。你父亲已不知去向。我会好好照顾你，把你教养成一个好男孩。』于是我决定留在她身边。道格拉斯太太非常和蔼，但她妹妹华森小姐和我们同住，使我很不自在。华森小姐总想要教我读书写字。而我不怎么喜欢在家读那么多书。　　有一天，晚餐后，我手拿一根蜡烛上楼到我房间把它放在桌上，然后坐在窗边的椅子上。我设法去想些开心的事情，但并没有用。我心中感觉寂寞得要死。天际繁星闪烁，林中树叶飒飒作响。接着我好象听到远处有『喵！喵！』的叫声。一只猫愈来愈近。它来到屋前便停了下来。太好了。现在我也学猫叫，『喵！喵！』！我吹熄蜡烛，爬出窗外，滑落到地上。黑暗中我发现了汤姆‧苏儿。我俩在树林中沿着一条小径走去。我们小心翼翼以免发出任何声音。我跟随着汤姆，一直走到山顶的边缘。在那里，我们可以看到整座村庄，只有三、四盏闪烁的灯光，也可以看到密西西比河。我们走下山坡，看到了乔，罗杰斯和另外两、三个男孩。汤姆要大家都发誓保守秘密后，他便带大伙到浓密的矮树丛中去看一个山洞。然后我们点着蜡烛，膝手着地爬着进去。我们爬了约两百码后，那山洞开始宽敞起来。我们就沿着一条狭窄的信道进入了一个潮湿阴冷的房间。　　当大伙停下脚步时，汤姆便说：『现在我们结盟为一帮强盗，名字是汤姆‧苏儿帮。』其中一个男孩问：『我们要做什么呢？』汤姆回答说：『只是抢劫和谋杀而已。』此刻，小汤米睡着了，当他们把他叫醒时，他非常惧怕。他哭叫着说：『我要回家去找妈咪，我不想再作强盗了。』于是大伙都取笑他，说他是个爱哭鬼。这一来可把小汤米惹火了，便说：『我要回家去把这个秘密告诉所有的人。』　　汤姆给他五分钱封住他的口。汤姆说：『我们大伙现在打道回府，下周再集合。我们要找个家伙行抢，然后杀几个人。』班说他只有星期天才能外出。其它男孩则说在星期天做坏事是不对的。于是大伙决议尽快碰头把日子确定。我们在推选汤姆为第一任帮派头目后就各自回家去了。当我从窗户爬进房间时，太阳已开始升起了。　爹地不知去了哪里。我已有一年多没见到他了。这对我来说也无所谓。他缺钱买酒时常常打我，因此我根本不想再看到他。我们偶而扮扮强盗达一个月之久，然后我就退出了。其它人也退出了。我们并没有抢夺或杀死任何人。　　又过了三、四个月，冬天来临了。我每天上学。我现在已会一点拼写，也学会背诵九九表到六乘七等于卅五了。起初，我讨厌上学，但不久后也就能忍受了。同时，我也习惯了道格拉斯太太的生活方式。有一天，我到前花园去。地上积着一英寸厚的白雪。我发现雪上有脚印。我猜想那是我爹地的脚印。那天晚上，我点燃蜡烛进到房间时，爹地正坐在那儿。我关上门。他看起来很苍老。他的头发很长，衣衫褴褛，面无血色，看来像个生病的人。　　他说：『孩子你看来过得很快乐也很富裕。听人说你有六千块钱。我来这里是跟你拿点钱的。你明天就把那笔钱给我好了。我身无分文，穷得很。』我说：『钱都在撒切尔法官那里，我现在身上没有钱。』但当他发现我尚有一块钱时，他就抢走了，并说他要到城里喝点威士忌酒。　　第二天他醉醺醺地去找撒切尔法官，企图迫使他交出那笔钱，但无功而返。然后他又来找我，叫我不要再去上学。他认为我没有必要学习读书写字。所以每当他看到我去上学时，就打我。有一天，他来到我住的寡妇家，然后带我上船逆流划行了三英里。我们越过河流到对面伊利诺州河岸，那里有间老旧的小木屋。他一直把我留在他身边，所以我根本没有机会逃走。我们住在老旧的小木屋内，每晚他总是把门锁上，把钥匙放在他头下。他有一把偷来的枪，用来猎杀野生动物。我则在密西西比河中垂钓。我们每天吃的就是野生动物和鱼类。几乎每两天，他就把我锁在屋内，独自一人进城。他用猎物及鱼类换取威士忌酒带回家来，然后喝个酩酊大醉。我有一个月没有上学。起初我很想再回到学校去，因为我已开始喜欢读书，但不久之后我又变得懒散了。现在我觉得每天躺下来或钓钓鱼而不必读书倒是挺舒服的。现在爹地比以前更常进城或到其它地方去。有一天，他把我锁在屋内，三天未归。我好孤独落寞。我还以为他淹死了呢。就在那时，我下定决心要逃离木屋。我多次尝试潜逃，但都无法找到出路。每扇窗户都太小我无法爬出去。爹地离开时，也从未留下刀子或铁锤。爹地在家时，我们习惯到河岸去瞧瞧鱼线有无鱼儿上钩好当早餐吃。一天早晨，爹地叫醒了我，我们到河岸去。我看到一些木块和圆木顺流而下，知道河川已开始涨潮。六月潮涨总为我带来许多财富，因为一涨潮时，一些圆木──有时甚至有一打之多──一起顺流而下。我只要把这些圆木打捞起来，再把它们卖到锯木厂就行了。突然间，漂来一艘大约十三或十四英尺长的独木舟。我跳入河中，抓住这艘独木舟。我全身湿答答的，但无所谓。独木舟上没有人，我爬上去后划到岸边。心想：『爹地一定会卖掉它──它可以卖十块钱。』我决定把它藏到柳树枝遮盖的小溪流内。当爹地来时，我对他说，『我掉入河中，所以全身湿透了。』我们捉了五条鲶鱼后就回家了。早餐后，我想到乘独木舟逃到别处去。大约十二点左右，我们又去河岸。河水非常湍急，水上漂浮着好多木头。我们乘爹地的小船捞到一些圆木，带到岸上。第二天，爹地将我锁在屋内独自一人到城里的锯木厂去卖圆木。由于他的小船拖着木筏，所以行驶得很慢，我想他那晚应该不会回来了。当爹地一离开，我就开始用铁锯设法在墙上开洞口。一小时后，墙上的洞已开得够大，可以让我穿过了。我便忙着准备逃走时所需的东西。我拿了一袋玉米粉，带到独木舟上。接着又拿了一些熏肉、咖啡、糖、弹药、两条毯子以及其它管用的东西。另外，我还带了一把斧头。我拖着这些东西，爬出洞外。又费了很大的力把墙壁及地板恢复原状。然后，我带着枪走入树林，射杀了一条野猪，带回小木屋。我用斧头敲破大门，又割断野猪喉咙，将它放在桌旁地板上让它把血流光。接着我取出一个旧袋子，放入许多大石块，然后把它拖出门外，穿越树林，来到河边。最后，我把自己的头发拔下一些来，把斧头上抹上一些猪血，然后插立在后院。我把死猪扔入河中，以免被人发现。我这样做，是为了要使爹地认为哈克已遇害，而且弃尸地点不明。天色愈来愈暗。我在独木舟上等待月亮升起。我自言自语地说：『他们会认为我已被盗匪杀害，而且会沿河寻找我的尸首。但很快地他们便会厌烦而不想再找了。那时我就自由了。我可以去任何想去的地方，独自过活。』我正打算前往杰克森岛，这时天色暗了下来。我好累，也就睡着了。我醒来时，一时之间不知身在何处。过了一会，才记起自己仍在独木舟上。这时明月高挂，离岸边一百码以外漂浮的圆木都清晰可数。我时间宝贵，立刻匆匆离开岸边。起初，我缓缓地划着独木舟。然后，我使尽全力，以最快的速度划到杰克森岛。我终于划到伊利诺州的岸边。我将独木舟藏好，以免被人发现。我坐在岛端的一根圆木上，望着黑暗中的河川。我可以看到约三英里外那座城市中几盏闪烁的灯火。我醒来时，太阳已高挂天空。我想大约有八点多了。我找了凉爽树荫的草地躺下，感到舒畅与满足。一对松鼠坐在树枝上对着我吱吱叫着。我懒得根本不想做早餐。接着，我仿佛听到河的上游处传来一声『轰隆』巨响。不久，我又听到一声。我上前去看个究竟。我发现一艘渡船，上面挤满了人。他们在向水面上发射大炮，企图使我的尸首浮出水面。此刻，我感到非常饥饿，但要生火煮饭实在太危险了。我心想：『如果他们看到岛上有炊烟，必然会前来抓我。』他们放下一条条的面包在河流上，以吊慰我已溺毙的尸体。我就在岸边等待漂来的面包。一会儿之后，一大条面包漂了过来，但我未能抓到。当第二条面包接近我站的岸边时，我用一根长棍子捞了起来。然后我坐在树叶间一根圆木上，边吃着面包，边望着渡轮。当渡轮缓缓接近小岛时，我可以看到船上的每一个
