life introduction:
Mark Twain, an American writer, novelist and humorist, published more than 30 books, hundreds of short stories and essays and gave
lecture tours around the world throughout his career. During his whole life, Mark Twain carried on many kinds of jobs. From 1864, he became a reporter and travelled in Europe. By the end of his life in 1910, he had become known as the perfect example of American author. Behind the mask of humour and satire, his writing often criticized social morals, politics and human nature, making his literature a unique reflection of the American experience in the latter part of the
nineteenth century. In the 1890s Mark Twain became very poor. To recover from the bankruptcy, he started a world lecture tour, during which one of his daughters died. The death of his wife and his second daughter darkened his later years. Mark Twain died on April 21, 1910. Time line of the events

The writer’s introduction to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876)
Most of the adventures recorded in this book really happened; one or two were experiences of my own, the rest those of boys who were schoolmates of mine. Huck Finn is drawn from life; Tom Sawyer also, but not from an individual — he is a combination of the three boys whom I knew. Although my book is intended mainly for the entertainment of boys and girls, I hope it will not be shocked by men and women, for part of my plan has been to try to pleasantly remind adults of what they once were themselves, and of how they felt and thought and talked, and what strange adventures they sometimes took part in. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
This edition presents Twain's classic American novel in an unabridged text with a reader's guide that's suitable for both children and adults. Mark Twain's classic novel, The Adventures of
Huckleberry Finn, tells the story of a teenaged misfit who finds himself floating on a raft down the Mississippi River with an escaping slave, Jim. In the course of their perilous journey, Huck and Jim meet adventure, danger, and a cast of characters who are sometimes menacing and often hilarious. Though some of the situations in Huckleberry Finn are funny in themselves (the cockeyed Shakespeare production in Chapter 21 leaps instantly to mind), this book's humor is found mostly in Huck's unique worldview and his way of expressing himself. Describing his brief sojourn with the Widow Douglas after she adopts him, Huck says: \out her book and learned me about Moses and the Bulrushers,
and I was in a sweat to find out all about him; but by and by she let it out that Moses had been dead a considerable long time; so then I didn't care no more about him, because I don't take any stock in dead people.\Underlying Twain's good humor is a dark subcurrent of Antebellum cruelty and injustice that makes The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn a frequently funny book with a serious message.
His quotation: \”
“The man who does not read books has no advantage over the man that cannot read them.”
“Always tell the truth; then you don’t have to remember anything.” Humor has been well defined as thinking in fun while feeling
in earnest.” 幽默被人正确地解释为“以诚挚表达感受，寓深思于嬉笑”。--- Mark Twain step3. Reading about Mark Twain on page 23
