Background about Anne's Diary
Anne Frank's (1929-1945) world famous diary records two years of her life from 1942 to 1944, when her family were hiding in Amsterdam from German Nazis. The diary begins just before the family retreated（撤回） into their "cret annexe（附属建筑）". Anne Frank recorded mostly her hopes, frustrations, clashes（争论） with her parents, and obrvation of her companions. Its first version, which appeared in 1947, was edited by Anne's father, who removed certain family references and some of her highly intimate confessions （私人的告白）.

About Anne
Anne Frank was born in Frankfurt, Germany. The Frank's family business included banking, management of the springs at Bad Soden and the manufacture of cough drops (咳嗽糖浆). Anne's mother was the daughter of a manufacturer. She had married Otto Frank in 1925. After the Nazis won in national elections in 1932, Adolf Hitler was appointed next year chancellor（总理） of Germany. Otto Frank had earlier toyed with the idea of emigrating, and in 1933 the family fled from Frankfurt to the Netherlands, where Otto Frank continued his career as a businessman. In 1938 Anne Frank's two uncles escaped to the United States. After the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands, anti-Jewish decrees（反犹太人法案） followed in rapid succession（继承，连接）. Anne's si
ster received a notice to report to the Nazis. The family went hiding with four other friends in a aled-off（封锁的） office flat in Amsterdam.
In 1944 Gestapo was informed of the flat - from 10,000 Jews, who went into hiding, some 5,000 were betrayed（背叛）. The Franks were arrested in the 1960s and transported to the Auschwitz concentration camp大白嗓（奥斯维辛集中营）, where Anne's mother died. Anne and her sister were transferred from the Dutch concentration camp, Westerbork, to Bergen-Beln where they both died of typhus (伤寒).
The Diary
Anne Frank received a diary in 1942 for her 13th birthday, and wrote in an early entry: "I hope that you will be a great support and comfort to me." When she started the diary, she was still attending the Jewish condary school. On her birthday, June 14, she opens prents: "The first to greet me was you, possibly the nicest of all." After moving in the hiding place in a warehou（仓库）, Frank depictes（描述） the nightmare reality of eight persons crowded into tiny living quarters, in fear of being discovered, but also her dr
eams, hopes and feelings of a young girl on the verge of womanhood. The poignancy of the diary is incread by her u of epistolary (书信体) form. The letters are addresd, in the abnce of her friends, to the imaginary "Kitty."
Frank started to write at school, and planned to become a writer. When she heard from radio broadcast from London about the importance of war diaries and letters, and possible publication, she changed the style of her diaries. On May 20, 1944 she decided to rewrite her earlier texts, and in two and half months she produced 324 handwritten pages.

The authenticity（真实性） of the diary was examined in the 1980s, when neo-Nazis（新纳粹主义者）claimed that it was forged（伪造）. All the versions of Anne Frank's texts were published in 1986. However, Otto Frank had put aside before the publication five diary pages, giving them later to his clo friend, Cor Suijk. In the pages Ane Frank de
picted her parents' marriage, defended her mother, and hoped that nobody would e her writings. In 1995 lections of diary suppresd（禁止发表） by Otto Frank were made public.
Excerpts（摘录） from "The Diary of a Young Girl"
"I haven't written for a few days, becau I wanted first of all to think about my diary. It's an odd idea for someone like me to keep a diary; not only becau I have never done so before, but becau it ems to me that neither I - nor for that matter anyone el - will be interested in the unbosomings (吐露心事) of a thirteen-year-old schoolgirl. Still, what does that matter? I want to write, but more than that, I want to bring out all kinds of things that lie buried deep in my heart."
"I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are still truly good "
"Whoever is happy will make others happy too. He who has courage and faith will never perish（死亡） in miry!"
