Language points
1. Tom Sawyer, by the famous American writer, Mark Twain.
by, 在這里表示“由……(創(chuàng)作)，出自”。
2. He left school and began work at the age of twelve.
“at the age of twelve”意為：在12歲的時候 =“when he was twelve ”
表達在12歲的時候我們還可以用: at 12/at age 12.
3. But he took the name Mark Twain and became very famous in the 1860s.
“take a name”相當于“choose to have a new name” 開始使用新名字。
如： Are you going to take your husband’s name when you get married? 你結(jié)婚后會改用你丈夫的姓嗎？
in the 1860s 不是具體時間，而是指“19世紀60年代” “in + the +整數(shù)年 + s ”為固定用法，表示“…世紀…年代”。
如: in the 1990s 20世紀90年代
