21. Describe an important thing you miss most when you are away from home. Explain why. Include reasons and details to support your response

 

Personally, I would like to say that the important thing I miss most when I’m away from home is the book “the lord¹ of the rings”.There are a couple of reasons to name. The first reason I wanna say isI could learn a lot of English vocabularies and sentence structures² from it, which are very useful in my preparation of GRE, thus I can save a lot of energy.The second reason isit would encourage me when I feel depressed³ and wanna give up, I want to be the hero in the story to reach the final destination by great efforts.So that’s why I miss the book “the lord of the rings” most when I’m away from home.
