Around the World In 80 Days

“Bedtime Reading in 5000 English Words: Around the World In 80 Days (in Pure English) tells a story that took place in 1872. Mr. Phileas Fogg lives at No.7 Sevier Road, Paddington Garden, England in an elegant and punctual life, repeating the same things at the prescribed time every day. His cold attitude and quirky behaviors make him a mysterious figure in the eyes of others. People know little about him. He is a member of the famous Reform Club in London, England, and going to the Reform Club has become one of Mr. Fogg’s daily essential tasks. One day in the Reform Club, members talked about a recent bank robbery. He bet his friends with a bet of two million pounds, saying that no matter what the accident happened, he could travel around the world in up to 80 days. In this way, he and his new servant Passepartout began this journey around the world with two million pounds in cash. He traversed five continents and seven oceans through untold hardships and various tests and risked his life to rescue the Indian woman Odda in distress. Suspected by the British police, he was mistaken for a British bank robber and was obstructed all the way by Detective Feix, which almost delayed the trip. After experiencing all kinds of hardships, he not only completed his journey around the world as scheduled but also returned to London with his love Odda who married him.”
