    Huck is my name, Huckleberry Finn. The story started when my best friend, Tom Sawyer, and I found $12,000 in a cave. That money made us rich. We got $6,000 each. Judge Thatcher, an important man in St. Petersburg, put it in the bank, and now we get a dollar a day as interest.

    Then a kind old lady called Widow(寡妇) Douglas invited me to live with her because I haven't got a family or a home. My mother died a long time ago, then my dad, Pap, disappeared. He was a violent(狂暴的) man, especially when he drank a lot, which was most of the time, and he often beat me. I was scared of him. I didn't go to school like the other boys of my age. I lived on the streets and in the woods.

    My life changed after I lived with the widow. She gave me a bed to sleep in and bought new clothes for me. She read stories to me and taught me how to eat at a table. But then her sister Miss Watson arrived. She brought her black slave(奴隶) Jim with her. I liked Jim but I didn't like Miss Watson very much. She often shouted at me.

    Widow Douglas sent me to school every day. I didn't like going there at first because learning was very difficult. But when I could read and write a bit, I didn't mind going.

    The months passed and winter came. The weather got cold. One morning I woke up and there was snow on the ground. On my way to school, I saw some footprints outside the widow's house. There was a cross on the heel(脚后跟) of the left one. My heart jumped. Only one person wore boots with a cross on the left heel! Pap!

    "He's heard about my money," I thought." And he wants it!"

    That night I went to see Jim. Jim had a magic ball made of animal hair. There was a spirit inside the ball that could answer people's questions about the future.
