What is classics literature? Classics are the (antique) of the literary world. They are novels, plays and poems were written a long time ago and were well-written that people still read them nowadays. They are examples of great writing and wisdom, and even those written centuries ago can still be found in bookshops and libraries today.
Because a lot of classics (write) so long ago, their language characteristics are quite different those of modern works. This makes them difficult for some people to read, so they are often left to gather dust on shelves. Many people do not read them, because they think classics are old and (bore) and have nothing to do with life today.
However, if this is true, why do we still find these classics in bookshops and libraries? They have not disappeared and still have place in the world. Why else would many films adapted from them be successful? In 1995, an award-winning film (base) on Jane Austen's novel Emma came out. Three years later, in 1998, a modern (adapt) of Charles Dickens's novel Great Expectations appeared in cinemas. Nobody would bother (make) these classic novels into films if they had nothing to do with contemporary life.
