    Every boy wants to find treasure.And Tom was no different.  One summer day Tom told Huck about his idea.

    "Where can we look for treasure?"asked Huck.

    "It's hidden on islands,under dead trees,but mostly under the floors in haunted(闹鬼的) houses."

    So,one Saturday afternoon Tom and his friend went to look for treasure as the haunted house on Cardiff Hill.It was a quiet and lonely which made the boys feel very frightened.They entered quietly,and explored downstairs.Everything was old,broken and dirty.They threw their tools in a corner and walked upstairs,but there was nothing there.They were just about to go downstairs and start digging when Tom stopped.

    "What is it?"whispered Huck,going white with fright.

    "Keep quiet! There's someone downstairs."

    The boys lay down,looking through the holes in the wooden floor.There were two men downstairs.One was an old Spaniard in a wide sombrero hat and the other was duty and unpleasant﹣looking.

    Tom and Hack shook with fear when they heard the Spaniard speak because they found it was Injun Joe He said,

    "It's time for us to move,partner.What will we do with the 650formtherobbery(抢劫)?""Let'skeep30each and leave the bag here."

    The dirty man went to the fireplace and moved a stone.Then he lifted out a bag full of money and look out some coins.The two boys forgot all their fears when they saw there was real treasure downstairs.

    Then Indian Joe started digging a hole with his knife and the knife hit something.

    "What is it?"asked the other man.

    "It's a box,"said Indian Joe.And he put in his hand and pulled out a handful of gold coins.The other man found the boys'tools,and they soon pulled out the box.

    "Where's thousands of dollars in there,"Said Indian Joe.

    "The Murrell Gang used this area one summer,"said his partner.

    "They most have hidden their money here."

    "What will we do with this,Joe?Will we bury(埋)it again?"

    "No,someone might find it,"said Indian Joe."Let's bury it in the member two den(巢穴)."

Tom and Huck got up as soon as the two men left.They decided to watch out for the"man in the sombrero"when he came to town and find out where the member two den was.

    One sunny day, I decided to go for a walk with my husband. I was wearing a special1 ring that day. It was my 20th birthday gift from my grandmother.

    As we were walking in the park, I just looked 2 at my hand and found the diamond on my ring was missing. I was really 3 so I went back to look for it. I knew how small the chances were of finding it, but I still wanted to give it a try.

    As I was fixing my eyes on the ground, I ran into an old gentleman 4.

    “What's the matter, love?” he asked nicely.

    “Sorry that I ran into you,” I said. “But I lost something important. I'm really nervous.”

    I explained about the missing diamond and showed him the5 in my ring.

    “That's not going to be easy to find it,” he said. “Tell you what, love, I take a walk here every day. I'll6 my eyes open for it.”

    I thanked him, expecting7. However, a few days later, my husband and I met the old man again in the park.

    “Guess what,” he said. “I found your diamond!”

    I couldn't believe what I saw when the gentleman handed the diamond back to me. Then my husband8him money for his help, but he refused.

    As the diamond is worth several thousand dollars, the old man could have easily kept the diamond 9sold it, but he did neither of these.

    Now thanks to this man, I always look at my ring and remind10 that there are still kind and generous souls out there. I'll spend more time trying to do something equally nice for other people.

    It was one o'clock in the morning when I at last succeeded in creating life.

    As I looked at the lifeless human being, I saw one eye slowly open. Then he began to breathe and move his arms. At first, I thought he would be a fine-looking man. He had yellow skin, black hair and very white teeth. Unluckily, his eyes were watery, and his lips were thin and colorless. I soon realized that there was nothing beautiful about him. I ran out of the room, disgusted (恶心) by the creature I had created. I tried to sleep, but for hours I could not. Then, when I did get to sleep, I had bad dreams. When I awoke the next morning, I did not want to return to my laboratory and the monster I had created. I went for a long walk until I came to an inn. There, to my pleasure and surprise, I found my friend, Henry Clerval. "Tell me about my family," I asked him. "And Elizabeth, How is she?"

    "They are all well, Frankenstein," he said. "But you do not look well, my friend. Your eyes look as if you have not slept for many weeks."

    I knew this was true. "I have been so busy," I explained, "that I have been working without rest." Henry walked back with me to my department. I did not want him to, but I could not stop him. I was afraid that the creature i had left there might be alive and walking about. When we reached my apartment, I asked Henry to wait outside for a few minutes. I did not explain why. I slowly opened the door and entered the room. To my surprise, it was empty. The creature had gone. I was so overcome by the feeling that I fainted. I was ill for many months.

    During my illness, Henry was my only nurse. He heard me talking in my sleep about a monster. At first, he thought I was just having a bad dream, but then he realized that something very bad happened in my life. At last, I began to get better.
