（一）预测范文

The book that impressed me most in college is Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne. Jules Verne (1828-1905) was born in Nantes, France. He had an innate love for the sea and for travel and adventure when he was a child. Later, he devoted himself to literature and wrote many scientific romances, which gained him the name—Father of Modern Science Fiction.

This is a science fiction which tells us an exciting story about an English gentleman, Mr. Phileas Fogg, who makes a bet with his club-mates and manages to travel around the world in eighty days. It gives us a vivid description of many difficulties and incidents which happen on his journey.

From this story, we can see the author’s deep love for the sea, travel and adventure, which played an important role in his life. We are also astonished and convinced by his fertile imagination and scientific and geographical knowledge.

大学里我印象最深的一本书是朱尔·凡尔纳的《八十天环游地球》。朱尔·凡尔纳出生在法国南特。在孩提时代，凡尔纳就对海洋、旅行和冒险表现出天生的热爱。后来，他致力于文学事业，并创作了很多科幻小说——这为他赢得了“现代科幻小说之父”的美名。

这是一部科幻小说，讲述了一个激动人心的故事：一位叫菲莱亚斯·福格的英国绅士和他俱乐部的伙伴打了一个赌，并设法在八十天之内环游世界。该书生动地描述了他在旅途中遇到的很多困难和经历的一些事件。

从这个故事中，我们可以看出作者对海洋、旅行和冒险深深的热爱，这在他的一生中发挥了重要的作用。我们也惊讶并信服于作者丰富的想象力与科学、地理知识。
