 Stephenie Meyer• Born in Connecticut, America, Stephenie Meyer graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in English literature. •She used to be a full-time housewife for 3 sons without any slight experience in writing.•Believe it or not, at one night in 2003, a dream totally changed her life ever since, which later turned out to be a chapter presented in her debut work(处女作）：Twilight（暮色）. In that dram, a girl is with a charming boy sitting on the grass with sunlight glinting off their faces. That boy is a vampire, but they have already fallen in love irrevocably(不可挽回的不可挽回的).He is confessing to his lover, describing how tough it is for him to fight against his thirst for her blood. •After Twilight, Stephenie Meyer continued with New moon（新月新月） Eclipse（月食月食）and Breaking Dawn(破晓破晓), known as the Twilight Series.• In recent year, the name “Stephenie Meyer” has gained numerous popularity and aroused great concern from the European press.• In May of 2008, she was among “the one hundred most influential personality” carefully selected by the Times. four episodes of the Twilight series: 3 of them have been made or planed to be made into movies.It is a story centered on the meandering love story between the mortal(凡人凡人的）的）girl Isabella Swan and the immortal Edward Cullen, combining the vampire legend, werewolf, life on campus, horrific suspense（恐怖悬疑）（恐怖悬疑）, adventurous comedy（冒险喜剧）（冒险喜剧） and many other eye-catching elements.  In Stephenie Meyer’s eyes, “love is the strongest emotion”. With the author’s engaging language, the unfathomable（难以琢磨的）（难以琢磨的） confusion and bewilderment of emotion during puberty(青春期青春期) of the heroine was finely(细腻的细腻的) depicted（刻画）（刻画）.  Those touching and chord-striking terms (especially the soliloquies独白独白) in the book easily resonate(引起共鸣引起共鸣) , drawing people worldwide uncontrollably lose themselves in those charming plots and become its big fans. The first two chapters of the novel “First Sight” and “Open Book” mainly tell about the background and the beginning of the following story . That is…… Bella exiled（放逐）（放逐） herself to Forks, a small town with dreary rain all the year round, to move in with his father because her divorced mother whom she had been living with got remarried. During her depression in the new environment, she encountered Edward, who had always been an inhumanly charming but cold alien in school.  Actually Bella was more fascinated by Edward than curious, but she had some bias towards him for his cold, strange and intense responses. But we know that all Edward’s unfriendly and weird reaction is due to his unusual but genuine identity: vampire.  The smell of Bella’s blood kept incredibly attracting him, so it’s very hard to hold back the desire from his evil part every time approaching her. While he did his best to conceal his true identity, on one hand because he had to stay “vegetarian” in order to normally lead a forever-young- cute –boy’s life among the mortal world, on the other hand he had already fallen in love with Bella ,such an ordinary but uniquely beautiful girl, at the first sight.  Being a predator（捕猎者）（捕猎者）, Edward surprisingly and painfully loved his prey(猎物猎物)Bella so gently in his hart without one word mentioned about his love to her. What he gave Bella was only silence and confusion …… So much for today~Thanks!。
