Reading books is one of my hobbies. I have a few favourite authors, but at present my favourite foreign writer is Jules Verne, one of the best French writers.
Jules Verne was born in 1828 and died in 1905. He was trained as a lawyer but he chose to write for magazines and the theatre. He created a new kind of novel that combined scientific fact with adventure fiction. It was called “scientific fiction". Verne's books quickly became best-sellers. He wrote more than 60 books that formed the popular series "Voyages extraordinaires" (“Extraordinary Journeys”). Most of his books are still popular with readers all over the world. The most famous works by Jules Verne are “A Journey to the Centre of the Earth”, “Around the World in Eighty Days”, “The Mysterious Island”, “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea”, “From the Earth to the Moon”.
My favourite book by him is “The Mysterious Island”. It is so interesting that I have read it twice. The best part of the book for me is the details of the main characters' survival and the author's belief in people and their ability to build a fair world.
I really like to watch movies. My favorite movie is "home alone".
This is an old movie, it was filmed in 1990. But he is very funny and kind. I like the main character of the film. His name is Kevin. He is a little boy whom the family accidentally forgot at home. But he is a very smart and independent boy. He can cook, clean the house, and go to the store. One day he finds out that the robbers want to rob his house. And he decides to defend his home. There are many funny scenes in the film. Kevin creates all sorts of jokes and traps. Robbers fall into these traps. Kevin then calls the police and they arrest the robbers. After that, Kevin cleans the house and makes a wish. He asks Santa Claus to return his family. And at the end of the movie, they all come back. When I was little, I also wanted to be alone at home. But now I understand that this is all fantasy.
