Children's Literature Alex Rider is no ordinary fourteen-year-old West London schoolboy. He has no parents or any other relatives to speak of, so he's pretty much on his own. And he's been recruited to be the youngest spy for MI6, Britain's secret intelligence organization. MI6 needs Alex to investigate the murders of two of the world's wealthiest individuals. The case leads him to an undercover assignment as the son of one of the world's richest supermarket magnates. Relocated to an elite boarding school in the Swiss Alps, Alex uncovers a dastardly plot by the headmaster, Dr. Grief, who has his sights, no less, on taking over the entire world. Dr. Grief's diabolical plot involves the duplication of the sons of the world's most powerful men. With the help of spy gadgets that might make 007 green with envy, Alex is able to make some harrowing escapes to foil Dr. Grief's plans and make the world safe once more. This is the second in the "Alex Rider Adventure" series. 2001, Philomel Books, — Christopher Moning KLIATT This is the next Alex Rider adventure after Stormbreaker (reviewed in KLIATT in May 2001), which has been identified as a sure bet to interest young adolescents, especially males. The story begins dramatically, but Alex doesn't appear until chapter two, so for highly impatient readers, this might be a slight problem. After that, however, it's all Alex, all action, all the time. He outmaneuvers teenage bullies and South African racists left over from the apartheid days. British Intelligence places him in the worst school situation ever, isolated in the Alps above Grenoble, where he is threatened by a fate worse than death (well, death after the students in biology class dissect him while he is still alive, without anesthetic). Like James Bond, he is given some useful gadgets that save him, and like James Bond, Alex has super-human stamina, courage, wit and intelligence. It's fun stuff for those who like thrilling reading. Category: Hardcover Fiction. KLIATT Codes: J—Recommended for junior high school students. 2001, Penguin Putnam, Philomel, 215p., $16.99. Ages 13 to 15. Reviewer: Claire Rosser; KLIATT SOURCE: KLIATT, March 2002 (Vol. 36, No. 2) Fewer Reviews VOYA This fast-paced book is for the young James Bond and spy-adventure fan. The book is short enough for the reluctant reader and cuts to the chase to hold attention. Other readers might quickly tire of the larger-than-life action scenes and clichés such as the stereotypical mad-scientist villain. Readers who enjoyed the first book will enjoy Point Blank.

Reviewer: Anna Yu, aka Anna Banana, Teen Reviewer SOURCE: VOYA, February 2002 (Vol. 24, No.6) School Library Journal Gr 5-10-After two influential businessmen die in separate freak accidents, MI6, England's spy network, once again calls upon 14-year-old Alex Rider to infiltrate Point Blanc, a private school in the French Alps for out-of-control, wealthy teens. Armed only with his wits and some 007-type devices, he stumbles upon an evil mad scientist's plot to take over the world using clones as replacements for prominent sons. Spy gadgets, chase scenes, mysteries, and a cliff-hanger ending will keep even reluctant readers interested in the second novel in this series. Familiarity with the first novel is not necessary as the plot fills in past information when needed, but many students will want to go back and read Stormbreaker (Philomel, 2001) to see how Alex first became involved with MI6.-Kim Carlson, Monticello High School, IA Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information. Kirkus Reviews Fasten your seat belts for the second installment in Anthony Horowitz's spy-thriller series starring 14-year-old British schoolboy and ace agent from MI6, Alex Rider. James Bond has nothing on this crafty kid, and it's lucky Alex is on the job. It seems that mad scientists still infest the planet and still want to rule the world. When readers first met Alex in Stormbreaker (2001), MI6 had sent him to spy school. This time they send him to an exclusive school for the recalcitrant sons of the super-rich. Disguised as the son of a British supermarket magnate, Alex learns that something extraordinarily odd is going on at the school. Yes indeed, the school's owner, the creepy South African apartheid supporter Dr. Grief, intends to take over the world by controlling his wealthy students. But who are his students? Is Dr. Grief using brainwashing, fear, or something more sinister on the boys? Can Alex escape from the fortress-like school before that sinister something happens to him? Horowitz devises a string of miraculous circumstances that keeps Alex alive and spying throughout. Spy thrillers appear too seldom in YA literature. With plenty of cliffhanger action, the Alex Rider adventures might help get young readers hooked. The unabashed fantasy imitates the James Bond movies more closely than the books, but it's all plenty of fun. (Fiction. 11-14)

我知道他这样已经算很好了,在所有的大事上,包括文理分科、大学和专业的选择、工作的选择,都是我做的主。平时他也没有摆出家长的威权架势,喜欢跟我开玩笑,而且试图跟我沟通,年轻人的一些东西他也有某些认知。 只是这沟通不顺利不通畅,他仍然不了解我,而我自以为了解他。就像安德烈说,他能够接受父母们听的音乐,而父母从来不听年轻人听的歌曲。我爸也听流行歌,但是除了《两只蝴蝶》和《做你的爱人》,其它的他都不认同。而我,喜欢听邓丽君和某些民歌。

我也很有问题,在很多时候,我都主动断绝掉沟通,认为无话可谈。 对一位知识分子来说,成为思维的精英,比成为道德精英更为重要。我认为低智、偏执、思想贫乏是最大的邪恶。当然我不想把这个标准推荐给别人,但我认为,聪明、达观、多知的人,比之别样的人更堪信任。

我发现,人们常常把这样的事情当作人性最可贵的表露:七尺男子汉坐在厨房里和三姑六婆磨嘴皮子,或者衣装笔挺的男女们坐在海滨,谈论着高尚的、别人不能理解的感情。我不喜欢人们像这样沉溺在人性软弱的部分之中,更不喜欢人们总是这样描写人性。 一个常常在进行着接近自己限度的斗争的人总是会常常失败的,一个想探索自然奥秘的人也常常会失败,一个想改革社会的人更是会常常失败。只有那些安于自己限度之内的生活的人才总是“胜利”,这种“胜利者”之所以常胜不败,只是因为他的对手是早已降伏的,或者说,他根本没有投入斗争 我觉得问题就出在,他们认定了自己所持有的那一套价值系统,哪怕没有强加于你,也要固执地坚守,并且只要一有机会就要摆出来。他们以一种似乎柔和的方式在我耳旁聒噪,希望我能慢慢软化。
