The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn is one of the greatest and beloved books in American literature(文学). Mark Twain wrote the book in 1884 and he painted a picture of what life was like in the 19th century.
The book starts out with Huck telling the reader that this is a sequel(续集) to The Adventure of Tom Sawyer. After his dad deserts(遗弃)him, Huck lives with widow Douglas. He describes the widow‘s sister and his two friends, Tom Sawyer and Slave Jim. Then Huck‘s dad comes back. After a while, Huck‘s dad starts beating Huck, so Huck runs away. He fools everyone into thinking he has been killed. He goes to some island where Jim has also escaped(逃跑).

Later, he heard a newspaper was looking for a network technician(网络技术员), so he asked for it. But they were also worried about his school education. He practiced his skill right in front of the computer, and showed the managers the web pages he had made. He started to work the next day, and became the leader of the network department in less than a year.

When I was a kid, my dad used to sing me the old song Pack up Your Troubles. The words of the song often go through my mind while I‘m packing for a trip---―Pack up your troubles in your bag and smile, smile, smile.‖
However, for my friend, Vikki, what to pack isn‘t as important as whom to pack. She takes the photos of her family and friends who are dead everywhere. Vikki takes her ―mother‖ skiing in Mammoth and takes her ―mother‖ to Rome. Vikki has taken a number of people to foreign places like Australia. I‘m very interested in this practice and often ask her about it.
During a trip two years ago, I saw the power of this practice. When Larry and I had just finished dinner at a restaurant, Vikki passed a small photo to Larry and asked, ―Would you like to have your mom with you tomorrow when you climb Machu Picchu?‖ Larry was clearly moved and put the photo in his pocket. The next day, Larry had his ―mom‖ with him and I could feel the happiness he felt.
With all the rules about travel today, we should take something with us that makes us happy, or at least smile, smile, smile.
