Charles Dickens was an English writer. He was born in 1812. He created some of the world’s best-known characters and many readers think he is the most important writer of the Victorian era (1837-1901). Some of his famous novels are Oliver Twist, David Copperfield and Great Expectations. Most people in his novels lived in London.
In 1824, Dickens’ father went to prison(監(jiān)獄) because he couldn’t pay money to someone. In those days, a man’s wife and young children went to prison with him. Charles was 12, so he left school to work in the prison. Life was hard, and a lot of children worked in those days. Dickens’ own experience helped him to write about poor children without a mother or father. Dickens' success began with the publication (出版) of The Pickwick Papers in 1836. And his book Oliver Twist is about a boy without father. Important people were more interested in the problems of poor people after reading Dickens’ books.
Dickens’ novels are often very long and he wrote them in different parts for a newspaper each week. His novels have a lot of exciting and sad things in them. He wanted his readers to buy the newspaper every week. And the readers wanted to finish the story! Dickens’ novels are popular because many of his stories are about social(社會(huì)的) problems and family life. Dickens was successful in writing and he has been praised by other writers for his style and characters.

A king received a gift of two great falcons (獵鷹), and they were really beautiful. He gave the birds to his head falconer to be trained.
One day, the falconer told the king that although one of the falcons was soaring (高飛) high in the
sky, the other bird couldn't move from its branch (樹(shù)枝) since the day it arrived.
The king called on many falcon trainers to train the falcon, but no one could make the bird fly.
After he tried everything else, the king thought to himself, "Maybe I need someone more
familiar (熟悉的) with the countryside to work out this problem.” So he asked his men to go and get a farmer.
In the morning, the king was surprised to find the falcon was soaring high above the gardens. The king asked the farmer, “How did you make the falcon fly?” The farmer said to the king, “It was very easy. I just cut the branch which the bird was sitting on".
We are all made to fly. But sometimes we just sit on our branches, don't want to leave the things that are familiar to us. So sometimes our lives are boring and not exciting. Let us learn to cut the branch that we are familiar with and free ourselves to a brave soar!
1.The king's gift is____________.
2._____________made the other falcon fly.
3.The king felt____________when he saw the other falcon fly.
4.We want to sit on our branches because__________.
