　　Describe your 最爱的电影.

　　Personally, I would like to talk about the movie Harry⁶ Potter. It is based on the international best seller Harry Potter, and it is authored by J.K. Rollin, a British novelist. The storyline is very interesting. The main character Harry Potter was determined⁷ to learn the magic and he had many setback and faced a lot of barriers in this process. However, he never gave up and was motivated to spread justice and at the same time fight against the evil. Another important lesson that I learned is that we should value friendship, cherish our loved ones.
