Question: M: I have read Mark Twain's book, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. It's quite interesting and adventurous. ,F: But this book I'm reading is kind of boring.

Anything else? ,F: In eighteen fourty-seven, when Twain was 11 years old, his father died. The next year, he began to learn printing.

And Mark Twain really received his steamboat pilot license in eighteen fifty-nine, after 2 years of hard work.
