阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题，每题答案不超过6个单词。
Last month, our class held a special "book drifting" activity. All the students in our class took part in it, and we all had a wonderful time.
The activity was held by our English teacher, Ms Li. She wanted to encourage us to read more books and share good books with our classmates. Before the activity, every student prepared a book they liked. We wrote a short introduction of the book on a card, and also wrote down our own feelings about it. We put the card inside the book, and brought it to the classroom.
On the day of the activity, we put all the books on the desks in the classroom. The classroom became a small "book fair". Each student could walk around and choose any book they liked. When you chose a book, you could take it home to read for two weeks. After you finished reading it, you needed to write down your own opinion on the card, and bring it back to "drift" to another classmate.
I chose a book called Wonder for the activity. It's a warm story about a boy with a facial problem. I read the book in one week, and I was deeply touched by the story. I wrote down my feelings on the card, and I hoped the next reader would love the book too.
This activity was really meaningful. It not only helped us read more good books, but also made us closer to our classmates. We learned to share and care for others through this activity.

The book that impressed me most
Reading is an important part of my life. Among all the books I have read, the one that impressed me most is The Old Man and the Sea.
It tells the story of an old fisherman who catches a huge fish at sea, but fights against sharks on his way back. Though he only brings back the fish bone at last, he never gives up in the face of difficulties.
The book impresses me deeply because it teaches me to be brave and never give up. Whenever I meet difficulties in my study or life, I will think of the old man and his spirit. It makes me stronger and more confident.
