Since the advent of the coal industry, it has become the Alaska of western China, attracting countless people looking for a way out of life. In this "United Nations" of diverse accents, Henan is the most common language of public communication, as it is the language of choice. People from all over the world who live in Tongcheng can speak a few Henan accents and hum a few lines of Yu opera. The city is surrounded by mountains and dirt mounts. The mountain rocky soil thin, not suitable for farming, agricultural population is far less dense than the hinterland of the Loess Plateau, not to mention and overcrowded compared to the central plains. Because of the small number of farmers, coupled with the fact that there is no lack of fuel here, these mountains and mounts have grown a dense firewood, and even some trees in the forest, which looks more scenic than the rest of the Loess Plateau. Whenever the fall, some of the mountain leaves like fire, flowers like eye-catching ...... between the mountain beams and dirt mounts, due to the deep excavation of the ground layer is too deep and the formation of the hollow, the surface of the ground from time to time subsidence, shocking large cracks often tore through the beams of a few frames, and even the big tops caused the collapse of the entire mountain fall, causing around the third degree of the Richter scale of earthquakes. One or two hundred miles north of the mountain is the Yellow River, which carries thousands of tons of sediment heavy gasping flow to the east ...... city in this narrow ravine can only put down a main street. The stores, buildings, street houses, along the winding streets, along the sides of the railroad, along the usual flow of the seven water rivers, lined up, layer after layer, dense as a beehive ant nests, from south to north rows of ten miles long. The train station is located in the center of the city. A rectangular waiting room painted yellow, in this gray stained black city looks magnificent. Apart from the civilian and military airfield in the southern suburb, the station's small square is perhaps the most open place in the city. From here, trains travel south across the green central plains to reach the provincial capital in five or six hours. And to the west, east, and north, there are highways jutting out all the way to several neighboring provinces. This train station runs two fast and slow buses every day in the morning and afternoon respectively to the provincial city, and the rest are all coal trucks. The branch line from the Longhai Railway branch out, its last rail does not end in this station. This steel ladder and here forked out two shares, all the way uphill through the hole, along the way stringing up the east and west of more than twenty mining areas. When outsiders talk about Copper City, they know that it is a place where coal is produced, so they imagine that the city is probably full of coal. In fact, there are only one or two very small coal mines on the edge of Copper City, and the rest of the big mines are in those ravines on the east and west sides. When you turn down the railroad spur into these ravines, you will see what a huge world there is. Each of these coal mines, which are only about ten miles apart, has tens of thousands of workers who, along with their families, almost exceed the size of a mountain county. The dense population, the dense houses, the towering derricks, the rumbling machines, the clamor, simply makes one wonder how these tiny ravines and mountain bays can carry such a huge load.

Napoleon had commissioned Duncans to carry a secret letter to his close associates in Paris.

The Godfather is an iconic work of modern American fiction, with more than 20 million copies distributed worldwide since its introduction in 1969, making it a deserved super bestseller. The ups and downs of the Mafia family have left fans wanting more and always expecting a sequel. But perhaps because the original book gained so much prestige, author Mario Puzo was afraid of "going back to the drawing board", so he didn't start writing until his death.
In the summer of 1945, Vito Don Corleone, "The Godfather" and head of the Corleone family, held a grand wedding for his youngest daughter, Connie. "The Godfather had three sons: Sunny, the oldest, who was a womanizer; Fred, the second son, who was a coward; and Mike, the youngest, who had just returned from World War II. Sunny is the Godfather's right-hand man, while Mike, though smart and capable, has little interest in the family's "business".
The Godfather is the leader of the Mafia and is often involved in illegal activities. But at the same time, he was also the protector of many small and vulnerable people, and was loved by them. He also had a rule that he would never sell drugs to harm people. For this reason, he refused the demands of the drug lord Sullozzo, which intensified the conflict with several other Mafia families in New York. On Christmas Eve, Sullozzo kidnapped Tom, the Godfather's eldest son-in-law, and sent a team to assassinate him.
The Godfather was shot and hospitalized. Sulozo asked Tom to try to get Sunni to agree to the drug deal and renegotiate. Sunny, who is a man of courage, vows to take revenge, but there is nothing he can do. When Mike visits his father in the hospital, he discovers that the bodyguards have been paid off and that the police are in cahoots with Sulozzo. A confrontation between the families is imminent. Mike devises a plan to lure the police and the police chief into a negotiation. In a diner, Mike kills both the Sheriff and the Sulozzo with a pistol he has hidden in the restroom.
Mike fled to Sicily, where he married the beautiful Apollonia and lived an idyllic life. At the same time, the feud between the various Mafia families in New York is getting more and more intense. Sunny is betrayed by Connie's husband, Carlo, and is beaten to death. "The Godfather returns from his injuries and arranges a reconciliation between the families. Mike, who hears the bad news, is also attacked. A paid bodyguard, Fabrizio, planted a bomb in Mike's car. Mike survived the attack, but lost his wife. Mike returned to New York in 1951 and married his ex-girlfriend Kay.
The aging "Godfather" passed on the position of head of the family to Mike. After the Godfather's death, Mike took his revenge. He sends his men to assassinate the heads of two other rival families and kills Fabrizio himself for the murder of his ex-wife. He also avenges Sunny's death by killing Carlo. The enemy is cut off. Connie storms into the house because her husband has been killed and beats Mike up. Mike coldly ordered Connie to be institutionalized. He has become the Godfather of a new generation, Don Corleone.

8. "The Course of Beauty" By:Li Zehou
Any Chinese who loves beauty, any one who loves Chinese
Chinese art, should read this book.
The Course of Beauty is a small book, with a length of just over 100,000
words.
The Journey of Beauty
is a big book, which examines thousands of years of artistic development of the Chinese nation from the
ancient Totem to the Ming and Qing Dynasty paintings and craftsmanship.

point of view, the book explains the ins and outs of the development of Chinese aesthetic thought. This
book is an outline of classical Chinese beauty. Chinese
Chinese civilization has a long history, from the ancient flood to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and
the accumulation of artistic sparks in different periods has formed the characteristics of Chinese cultural beauty
. In terms of material civilization, primitive totems and primitive songs
dances already contained the germ of beauty, and the abstract evolution of the shapes and patterns of stone-age pottery and jade
wares was precisely the process of the primitive formation of beauty as a form with
meaning. The bronze
ware art of the Xia and Shang dynasties presents a mysterious power and fierce
beauty, and the pottery figurines and stone carvings of the Qin and Han dynasties constitute the
basic aesthetics of this period of majestic antiquity and simplicity. Since the Wei, Jin, and North and South Dynasties, the Buddhist cave art
art has made the solemn worship of Buddha an object of secular aesthetic
reform. Buildings such as palaces, tombs and temples followed a strict
structural symmetry to show the beauty of serious and square symmetry, while the art of gardening emphasized the overall layout to integrate the buildings with the beauty of the natural mountains and water to form a free and open organic whole of
beauty. From the field of spiritual civilization, the aesthetic principles of
"Fugue, Bi, Xing" in the Book of Songs have become the source of the aesthetic
tone of Chinese literature, and the magnificent and magical romantic imagination of the Chu Rhetoric
is the real glorious starting point of Chinese lyric poetry, and the Han Fu, which greatly exaggerates the importance of spreading
Chen, is the most important of all Chinese lyric poetry. The Han Fu is the embodiment of the spirit of the times, which combines myth, history, and reality in one
body. The Wei and Jin styles highly respected gorgeous
good-looking words and chapters, so that the six dynasties of parallel rhyme into
wind. Tang poetry and Song lyrics are two bright pearls of Chinese literature, which have produced literary giants such as Li Bai, Du Fu and Su Shi. The Yuan Dynasty prose
quotes and miscellaneous dramas have the aesthetic characteristics of elegance and secular **** appreciation, while the Ming and Qing Dynasty Xiao
speak depicts secular human feelings. This article is really good.

11. "Xu Sanguan's Story of Selling Blood" by Yu Hua
"Xu Sanguan's Story of Selling Blood" is a long novel written by Yu Hua in 1995, which depicts life in the midst of trials and tribulations with great warmth and expresses the desire to survive in the face of misfortune in the form of an intense story. The novel tells the story of Xu Sanguan, who sells his blood to tide over the difficulties in his life and overcome the shocking waves imposed by fate, but when he grows old and realizes that his blood is no longer wanted, he suffers a mental breakdown. In its review of Xu San Guan's Story of Selling Blood, the French magazine L'étude said: "This is a masterful novel, a perfect combination of simple simplicity and far-reaching connotations. Yu Hua is currently working on a full-length novel about a love story that spans a long period of time, and in terms of literary style, it will be a very different work from Xu San Guan's The Story of Selling Blood, which is due to be completed early next year. The book expresses the author's fascination with length, a road, a river, a rainbow after the rain, an endless memory, a folk song with no end, a person's life. All this is like a bundle of rope coiled up, slowly pulled out by the narrative, pulled to the end of the road. Here, the author sometimes has nothing to do. Because he realized from the beginning that fictional characters also have their own voices, and he thought he should respect these voices and let them find their own answers in the wind. So the author is no longer a narrative aggressor, but a listener, a patient, careful, understanding and empathetic listener. He tries to do this, and in his narration he tries to cancel out his role as author, feeling that he should be a reader. And so it was, and when the book was finished, he realized that he knew no more than anyone else. The characters often speak on their own, sometimes to the author's horror, and when the words come out of their fictional mouths in a way that is both appropriate and beautiful, the author suddenly feels inferior and thinks to himself, "I can't say such things." However, when he becomes a real reader, when he reads the works of others, he is often secretly pleased: "I have also said such things." This seems to be the joy of literature, that we need its influence to correct our thoughts and attitudes. It is interesting to note that while many great works influence an author, he finds that his own fictional characters influence him in the same way. The book is in fact a long folk song, its rhythm is the speed of memories, the melody jumps gently, the rests are hidden by the rhymes. The author here fictionalizes the history of only two people and tries to evoke the memories of many more. Matthias said: "Remembering the past is like living it again." Writing and reading are in fact both knocking on the door of memory, or rather both are trying to live again.
12. "The Gadfly" By: Voynich
The Gadfly: To die for his beliefs as if taking a walk
He, the Gadfly - a man willing to be tormented by fate for his revolutionary beliefs. He loved two people y - his father Montanini and the noble woman Joan of Arc, but later in his life he never gave them another chance to love him. His inner
heart endured an inhuman purgatory of torture. He leaves us with the thought of what man should really live for.
The Gadfly's final words in his suicide note have become a classic to this day: I didn't expect them to revert to interrogation and execution so soon. I know that if those of you who remain are united, you will give them a fierce counterattack, and you will realize the grand cause for which you have fought. As for me, I will treat death with a light heart and walk into the courtyard like a child returning home from vacation. I have done my part of the job, and the death penalty is proof that I have done it completely. They killed me because they were afraid of me, so what does my heart want?
The Gadfly:Lifelong love for only one person
She, Joan-Mar - whom the Gadfly had fallen in love with in Arthur's time, only to be regarded as a traitor due to unintentional disclosure of the organization's secrets. Joan's slap in the face broke Arthur's heart, and his love has been dimmed ever since. 13 years later, when Arthur returns as Gadfly, he is a changed man, both physically and mentally. He hated Joan of Arc for what she had done to him, and even when he was in front of her, his love rolled over in his heart again, but he didn't recognize that he was the same Arthur, and this cruel torment made Joan of Arc live in remorse and guilt all the time. It wasn't until just before his death that he left Joan Mar a farewell letter admitting who he was, and that heartbreaking love left Joan Mar grief-stricken. "I loved you when you were an ugly little girl, Joanmar. Back then you wore a chevron dress, a crumpled scarf, and a braid trailing behind you. I still love you."
The Gadfly: another entanglement too
She, Gilda - a beautiful gypsy woman. She finds a reason to survive in her mad love for the Gadfly. But the gadfly doesn't take her seriously; she's just a companion for him on certain occasions, certain needs. How can she be happy with that? She not only wants to possess the gadfly's body, but also wants to fight for his soul. However, the gadfly's soul belongs to the revolution, to his own beliefs, but also belongs to his secret love Joan of Arc - his comrades and comrades in arms.
