今天，我看了《魔法师的帽子》这本书，我还写了一篇作文，主要分为三个部分，一作者简介，二文章概括，三读后感。
《魔法师的帽子》是由世界著名儿童文学大师。女画家托芙·杨松创作的“姆咪谷”系列故事的其中一本。托芙·杨松出生于1914年，她在1966年还荣获国际安徒生儿童文学作家奖。《魔法师的帽子》是任溶溶翻译的。
我把它概括成两段，主要写了一个春天的早晨，姆咪特罗尔从冬眠中醒来，他和小吸吸。小嗅嗅一起，在山顶上找到了一顶帽子——魔法师的帽子。这顶帽子可以把鸡蛋皮变成五朵小云，可以把姆咪家变成森林······令人惊讶的事接连发生。
盛夏八月的夜晚，姆咪家正与小动物在森林中举行盛大的庆祝晚会，神秘的魔法师骑着黑豹从空中降临到姆咪谷，他来到这里见到了最大的红宝石，他用一座钻石山和某甲，某已交换，某甲和某已同意了魔法师，过了一个开心的夜晚。
我看了这本书，觉得这儿的魔法很特别，因为它们很夸张，比如，魔法师在月球上寻找一颗最大的红宝石。我觉得托芙·扬松很细心，因为在一些我们不太懂的地方，这页的最下方就是有几行字，便于我们理解。
我们要向托芙·扬松学习这种细心的精神。

Study the picture above carefully and write an essay entitled “The Adaptation of the Classical Literature”. In the essay, you should (1 describe the picture (2 interpret its meaning (3 give your opinion about the phenomenon. You should write about 200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points?
The picture gives us a view of a popular phenomenon: the adaptation of the classics. Some classical literary works, such as our four great classics i.e. A Dream of Red Mansions, Journey to the West, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Heroes of the Marshes, are all adapted to cater to some readers’ tastes. The traditional characters become so strange and the plots are totally different. It is so ridiculous that the precious literary treasures are allowed to be ruined so much.
As we all know, the classical literature is the representation of the outstanding art of our nation. Some familiar characters such as Monkey King express the good wishes of our common people. From them, we learn many good virtues such as honesty, bravery, justice etc. However, in those adapted works named “Bantering***”or “Reboiling***”, all plots are changed and all characters become somewhat watered clown. Some readers interested in reading burlesque works have high praise for them. But they never think of the negative effects of such adaptations on the average reader, especially to children. Children are the future of the nation. They always believe that what is in the books is the truth. Those adapted works will affect their outlook on life.
Therefore, some measures should be taken to restrict these adaptations. The real classics should be presented on the bookshelves to lead people to appreciate the real art.
