C.S.Lewis has provided us with another grand tale of unusual heroes. The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe is but one part of a gigantic masterpiece describing a strange world full of magic and strange creatures somehow co-existing with our own.
C·S·路易斯給了我們另一個(gè)不尋常英雄的宏偉故事?！丢{子，女巫和衣櫥》只是這部龐大的杰作的一部分，描述了這樣一個(gè)奇怪的世界，里面充滿了魔力，還有一些奇怪的半人半獸的生物。

4 siblings named Peter, Edmund, Susan and Lucy enter the world of Narnia through a wardrobe, only to find out that they are both persona non grata and expected saviors. In case you were thinking that Chronicles of Narnia and LOTR are a bit similar at times, keep in mind that Lewis and Tolkien were very close friends, in fact Lewis helped Tolkien with a few passages in LOTR.
4姐妹皮特，埃德蒙，蘇珊和露西通過(guò)衣櫥進(jìn)入了納尼亞的世界,發(fā)現(xiàn)他們不受歡迎卻又被某些動(dòng)物當(dāng)成救世主。如果你碰巧發(fā)現(xiàn)納尼亞和指環(huán)王的年代有點(diǎn)相似，別忘了路易斯和托爾金是很好的朋友，事實(shí)上路易斯還幫助托爾金寫(xiě)過(guò)指環(huán)王的幾個(gè)章節(jié)。

Having a successful book release in the 21st century no longer depends simply on writing a good book, but also on the marketing and distributing channels. Dan Brown and his team obviously managed that, because selling 80 million copies over 7 years is simply remarkable.
在21世紀(jì)，新書(shū)要成功上市，不僅要寫(xiě)得好，市場(chǎng)營(yíng)銷(xiāo)和分銷(xiāo)渠道也是很重要的。丹布朗的團(tuán)隊(duì)顯然深諳此道，7年多售出8千萬(wàn)本確實(shí)很了不起。

The Da Vinci Code is a mysterious story depicting a cohesion between Catholic religious beliefs and the modern world. You should fasten your seat belts before you start reading it, because the pace is quick and you could easily get off track!
《達(dá)芬奇密碼》是一本關(guān)于現(xiàn)代社會(huì)中天主教信仰的神秘小說(shuō)。你在讀之前最好坐穩(wěn)了，因?yàn)樗墓?jié)奏很快，你一不小心就會(huì)跟不上。

6. The Alchemist, Author: Paulo Coelho
《煉金術(shù)師》，作者：保羅 科埃略

"When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you achieve it". I don't know how does the original in Portugese sound, so the translation will have to suffice. The point is that Paulo Coelho tells us that if you want something real badly, you shall have it.
“如果你想要什么， 整個(gè)宇宙都會(huì)幫你得到”。我不知道在葡萄牙原話是怎么說(shuō)的，但基本上就是這個(gè)意思。重點(diǎn)是，保羅科埃略告訴我們，如果你真的十分想要某樣?xùn)|西，你應(yīng)該擁有它。

The Alchemist tells a story of a young shepherd boy who overcomes love and danger on his quest for a treasure. Apparently, the story is so good that it had to be translated into 67 languages and breaking a Guiness record in translations for a living author.
《煉金術(shù)師》講述了一個(gè)牧羊男孩克服了愛(ài)情和危險(xiǎn)去探尋寶藏的故事，很顯然，這個(gè)故事非常的棒以至于被翻譯成了67種語(yǔ)言，也創(chuàng)造了現(xiàn)世作家作品被翻譯的吉尼斯紀(jì)錄。

What might especially young people find very appealing is that Paulo Coelho encourages people to use peer to peer networks, because he perfectly understands that people are honest and they will pay for good work - eventually.
保羅 科埃略鼓勵(lì)人們使用p2p網(wǎng)絡(luò)技術(shù)，因?yàn)樗耆嘈湃藗兪钦\(chéng)實(shí)的，他們最終會(huì)用在好好工作上，對(duì)于年輕人來(lái)說(shuō)，這點(diǎn)讓他顯得更加有魅力。
