Western literature has no equivalent to The journey to the West. Imagine Dante mixed with Kabala, and peopled by Daniel Boone, Mother Teresa and Wile E. Coyote. This sixteenth-century epic is both one of the half-dozen most venerated works in classical Chinese literature and a staple of popular culture. Its ubiquitous characters and stories appear in comic books, advertisements, even postage stamps. It is, simultaneously, a dragons-and-demons adventure, an allegory of self-mastery, a political satire, an anthology of rich, symbolic poetry, and an esoteric alchemical recipe book. Its picaresque, fantastical, wise. And hilarious.

再次翻开姚xx老师的这本《小学英语情趣课堂教学》时,说心里话真的是很痛苦,像是下了很大的决心。过了两个月的无拘束、无压力的生活之后,发现静下心来做一件事很难,尤其是读书。因为是王老师给我们下了死任务,只好硬着头皮去读。事实证明:有压力才会有动力。这句话说的一点儿也不假。我重点研读了本书的第六章。本章节向我们展示了一些优秀的情趣英语课堂教学设计与课例,精心的教学设计,精彩的教学预设,无不体现了编写教师的独具匠心。设计中体现了人文主义,从教学目标到教学过程,都很巧妙地将传统的“要我学”转换成了“我要学”。

第一部分以北京师范大学新版小学英语教材四年级下册第十单元 Mc’s stre 6个课时的教学内容为例,展开基于情趣教学思想想的教学设计。阅读的过程中,可以看出编写教师非常细心,把课堂上的每个细节都处理的很到位,包括课堂的一些预设,生成。这一单元是一个阅读课,一提到英语阅读,我的脑海中就是bring, difficult。纵观这六课时的教学设计,教师借助插图、对话,并通过肢体语言、声音、多媒体资源、设置有效情境,挖掘文本固有的情趣,给予学生适时的语言支持和铺垫,帮助学生理解语言,理解故事。一步步地帮助学生把握技巧,培养他们的阅读能力。成功地把阅读变成悦读,使它真正地变成一种乐趣。在今后的阅读课上,我会尽力效仿,使它变得不枯燥。

第二部分是姚老师本人执教的展示课例。就像姚老师所说“情趣教学着眼于对学生学习兴趣的诱导”。在教学设计上,教师立足于激发学生的学习情趣,并通过多媒体资源,为学生呈现多个自然又生动的教学情境。另外,姚老师的板书设计给了我耳目一新的视觉体验,能够立足于文本内容的同时,重难点突出,也符合中年级学生的认知特点。

读罢此书,心中感慨万千,作为教师,很佩服姚老师的那份执着,以及对教学认真的工作态度。相比之下,我是差太多了。在教学设计上,我也要有所创新:

1.导入部分需要为所学内容做铺垫,不能华而不实。

2.适当地体现小组合作的魅力,锻炼学生的语言运用能力。根据学生的能力,在适当时机把主动权交给学生,充分关注学生的主体意识,激发学生主动参与的热情。

3.注重教学设计的整体性,连贯性。

平凡,这个词十分抽象,它是生活中不可缺少的一部分,对于这浩瀚无穷的世界,我们类是多么的微不足道。无论是悲与欢、穷与富、强与弱,对于这历史的长河不过是些平凡的小事罢了。我素来对平凡都是这样认为的。可读了《平凡的世界》后我改变了这样的看法。

小说以陕北黄土高原双水村孙、田、金三家的命运为中心,反映了从“”后期到改革初期广阔的社会原貌。

合上书轻轻思考,自己在学习和生活中的不顺心,又算得了什么呢?

孙少平在变革的时代中经受着各种社会冲突对自己内心世界的反复冲突,而且通过每一次冲击迫使他进行着不断的思考。人在平凡的世界中的生活是扎实,真正的读书人在平凡的世界中的生活应是定目标、正确方法加上持之以恒的努力,这些才是我认为的平凡的世界里平凡人真正实践经历的社会生活。

美国石油大王洛克菲勒曾说过:“在这个世界上,永远没有穷富世袭之说,也永远没有成败之说,有的只是找奋斗找成功的真理。我坚信,我们的命运由我们的行为决定,而并非完全由我们的出生决定。”

记得原来,我还不是很喜欢阅读,当我花时间、花精力去读的时候,我才发现,我喜欢阅读,读了平凡的世界,我被那个热爱读书的孙少平震撼了。于是,每次下课,班里又多了一个读书的,她同别人一样,在那里静静地读着...

当我翻开第一页的时候,就被一个雨雪描写的场面吸引了:“...细蒙蒙的雨丝夹着一星半点雪花,正纷纷玲玲的飘洒着...”可能这本书给我的第一个感受就是过度而非常自然的由春天到夏天,夏天到秋天...相同季节不同的手法描写,让我大览宏图。

好在,生活中没有永恒的痛苦,但也没有永远的幸福。生活就像双水村的流水一样不紧不慢的哗啦啦的流,失落顺水流走了,幸福也随波飘远了。闭上眼,就似乎能看到那一年一度的热闹如春节的打枣节。那红火劲竟压过中秋端午。那一天里,所有双水村的人们似乎忘掉了一年的烦恼和忧虑。人们在山林间随意吼着两声信天游,打下一粒粒肉厚核小的大枣子,笑着唱着闹着。这时的双水村,似乎连空气都弥漫着甜甜的枣香,还弥漫着幸福的味道。

《百万英镑》是马克.吐温写的一篇中篇幽默讽刺小说。本文故事是,一位公务员出海时在公海中迷了路,被救起后随船到了英国。在英国他成了流浪汉,因为一次两名富翁打赌,给他了一张100万英镑整的钞票,看他可不可以养活自己一个月。因为无法证明钞票归他所有,他一开始不敢花,后来实在饿得没有办法,拿钞票去饭店试试,结果店老板认为他是个富翁,允许他欠账,还想送给他东西,讨好他。结果他用这种方式,弄够了所有生活用品,还和别人合作赚了30万英镑。

这篇文章讽刺了那些以貌取人、见钱眼开的人。这些人见对方有钱,就甘愿为对方服务,而对于对方虚实,一概不问。他们这类人为金钱服务,信奉 “金钱万能”。这种人若变多,就会助长“金钱万能”这种社会风气的形成,金钱会异化成为人们的唯一动力。当前我们身边社会,也有这种习气的存在。从大处说,去年曾有某造纸工厂排污不达标一次用120万元买断全年的罚款,从小处说,找人办事送礼成风也是这种习气的体现。因此,我们不能信奉“金钱万能”,而且凡遇到事情,应该从本质着眼,看清事物的真相,而不应只看表面,不应盲从。

Ive read this twice. The first time I rushed through it just to find out who was the "victim." Yeah. Wasnt really surprised about that. Im sure a few people are thinking it was a serious mistake to off our lamented victim, but honestly, I wasnt really enthused at having to slog through this book.

I understand that this is covering the adolescent years of young Mr. Potter, but the whole teenage angst thing came out of nowhere. There shouldve been some hints as far back as "Chamber" but instead, we have four years of pent-up hormones come flooding out of the page. It is overwhelming at times, a feeling made worse when you realize that there wasnt a big plot; if anything, this was written partially for contract, partially to continue the story (I, personally, could have lived without the whole Hagrid/Grawp subplot, not to mention 50% of Dolores Umbridge, who herself is part pun, part metaphor, yet neither part really does anything but make one groan)。

But one thing to be said, there is growing tension and suspense in the book, which is written and intended--if we remember for a moment and think (perhaps somewhat na-iv-ely)--for young adults and not those of us with seasoned palates. This is why the book deserves a high rating; to me--and to many individuals over the age of, say, 16--this isnt a great novel. But it is an excellent novel for the young adult crowd and anyone who wants a mystery/fantasy/pseudo-thriller with characters who are reaching the genesis of their development. We may not like the person Harry becomes or the browbeating attitude of Umbridge or Rons jealousy rearing its head at odd turns, but it is a realistic portrayal of adolescent confusion and angst, of the tendency for some individuals in todays society to repreinformation and punish anyone who tries to resist the "system."

Yes, this is a heavy-handed statement, but this book is a metaphor as much as it is a fantasy. Remember, the Harry Potter series is desgined as an arc, so we naturally have to have the stage set for the final two books in the saga.

Hardcore Potter fans will enjoy this. Anyone expecting a great epic, however, will be disappointed because of their misconceptions.

篇7:有关简爱读后感英语版

Oliver Twist, one of the most famous works of Charles Dickens’, is a novel reflecting the tragic fact of the life in Britain in 18th century.

The author who himself was born in a poor family wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks of those cruel criminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneath the narrow and dirty streets in London.

The hero of this novel was Oliver Twist, an orphan, who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime.

He suffered enormous pain, such as hunger, thirst, beating and abuse.

While reading the tragic experiences of the little Oliver, I was shocked by his sufferings.

I felt for the poor boy, but at the same time I detested the evil Fagin and the brutal Bill.

To my relief, as was written in all the best stories, the goodness eventually conquered devil and Oliver lived a happy life in the end.

One of the plots that attracted me most is that after the theft, little Oliver was allowed to recover in the kind care of Mrs.

Maylie and Rose and began a new life.

He went for walks with them, or Rose read to him, and he worked hard at his lessons.

He felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime and hardship and poverty.

How can such a little boy who had already suffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is the nature of goodness.

I think it is the most important information implied in the novel by Dickens-he believed that goodness could conquer every difficulty.

Although I don’t think goodness is omnipotent, yet I do believe that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded.

For me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person.

Goodness is to humans what water is to fish.

He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person.

On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose’, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person.

People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself.

To my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity.

They look down on people’s honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted.

As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others.

On the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit.

In their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility.

If they cannot get profit from showing their ‘kindness’, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down.

They are one of the sorts that I really detest.

Francis Bacon said in his essay, ‘Goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin.’

That is to say a person without goodness is destined to lose everything.

Therefore, I, a kind person, want to tell those ‘vermin-to-be’ to learn from the kind Oliver and regain the nature of goodness.

读完《平凡的世界》花了我比较长的时间,但是它是值得的,让我受益匪浅。它让我感觉到了,读书是真的一种很好的体验。我就跟着路遥的笔进入了那黄土高原,窑洞的世界,对于长于南方的我来说,真是一种很新奇的体验,跟着里面的人物,体验了黄土高原的风俗民情。里面各个人物的生活命运,都让我挂念,我的心就随之一起一落。

百万的文字里作者不仅仅讲了一个人,他讲了很多人的故事,这些人相互联系,参与了彼此的人生,每个人的人生都不一样,都对彼此的人生产生了或大或小的影响。不得不令人赞叹的是,作者把这些人的故事或者说人生都描写的很自然很有代表性,他们都是不同的,有不同的家庭出身,有不同的经历,人生也是不同的。

看过这本书之后我明白了,生活中并没有所谓的主人公,每个人都有自己的人生。

金波和那位藏族姑娘的故事让我印象深刻,多年之后,金波终于再去找他的姑娘时,我心里其实知道他八成是找不回了,却又在暗暗的希冀着奇迹的到来,但是在金波唱完那支歌后,我知道已经不可能了。

生活并不总是圆满的,秀莲苦尽甘来,多年操劳,却突患肺癌。生活又不是完全无情的,李向前等了那么久润叶的爱,却突失双腿,本以为一切无望时,爱情却又来临,甚至后来和最爱的润叶有了儿子。这可能是有得必有失,有失必有得?

我真的由衷钦佩路遥先生,每个人的形象都是塑造地如此饱满,他们中间有旧地主的儿子,有穷苦了大半辈子的贫下中农,有仅读了小学的人,有上了高等学府的人,有人的好年华在谢幕,有人的青春正茂,有人在冉冉升起。春去春来,我看着少平金波他们,慢慢成熟,长大,意识到自己的责任,担当起来,而田福堂他们随着时代的改变,慢慢衰老,成为过去。这其中种种人物,都可以代表那个时代中国的老百姓的变迁。

他们的故事还没有结束,人生不会一帆风顺,苦难与挫折与快乐相伴而行,没有最终的结局。我想我看到最后已经能够坦然接受,生活仍是值得热爱的。

路遥该是文坛中少有的英雄,他不仅把写作当成了一种责任,更当成了一种无比神圣的使命。路遥是一个热爱生命的人,他在创作手记中曾这样写道:“在这里,我才清楚地认识到我将要进行的是一次命运的‘赌博’,而赌注则是自己的青春抑或生命。尽管不会让世俗的观念最后操纵我的意志,但如果说我在其间没有做出任何世俗的考虑,那就是谎言。无疑,这部作品将耗时多年,如果将来作品有某种程度的收获,这还多少对抛洒的青春热血有个慰藉。如果整个地失败,那将意味着青春乃至生命的失败。这是一个人一生中最好的一段年华,它的流失应该换取最丰硕的果实——可是怎么可能保证这一点呢!你别无选择——这就是命运的题目所在。”最终路遥赌赢了这场人生:一部《平凡的世界》完成了他的愿望,只是代价异乎寻常地惨重,他输掉地是生命!

路遥为我们讲述地不只是那个久远的年代,更是一种人生应有的信仰和追求,亘古不变。

这是一个喧嚣浮躁、道德危机的时代,每一个还拥有梦想并在追梦的人们都该再重温《平凡的世界》,它会让你懂得:尽管命运是那样的不公,尽管社会有那么多的不公,可只要你能够不屈不挠、艰苦奋斗、勇往直前终能获得最后的成功。每一个正在虚度生命的人们都该读《平凡的世界》,它会让你懂得珍惜。

路遥在教会我们忘我,忘我使生命永恒。人生容不得太多的自私,自私最终只会绝了自己。看风使舵,趋炎附势,均为自私使然。一生若只是这般地生活,终将无价值地葬入黄土。

路遥在教会我们要有独立的人格,尽管你可能会遭遇孤独。孤独是人生自我证明的必经之路,只要你认定了自己的理想,那么坦然面对孤独将是你勇往直前最后的支撑点。

路遥在教会我们不必用尽生命去做一个漂亮的人,但应用尽生命去做一件让人民叫好的漂亮事。前者只能证明你的处事圆滑,而后者则将见证你精彩的一生。

我想我们每个人都会在平凡的世界读后感触倾听那些久远的声音,或许那样我们会在这个因欲望日益膨胀而扭曲的时代,尽快找到自己的方向,不至于到油尽灯枯时,我们还在迷惘……

Having read the book Sister Carrie written by Theodore Dreiser,a very complicate feeling struck me,for the society,the people in America in the late 19th century.We can see clearly about the decadent and hypocritical moral principles of the bourgeois.They pursue only position,authority and money.Pleasure is their honest companion.

The society was developing rapidly and the people"s living standards were also improving.Yes,the prosperity appeared.But on the other hand,the gap between the poor and the rich was strengthened.While some people were playing and drinking,the other people were working,even begging.Behind the happiness,hiding much misery.Facing all of these,I am confused whether I should happy about the development of the society or I should sad about the cruel.

But I know I will give much sympathy to all of these people,no matter they rich or poor.I am sorry that the rich have lost their good morality,their sympathy and I think they are blank in their spiritThe poor,of course,are busy all the day for supporting themselves and their family,no time enjoying the life.All of them are the sacrifices of the society.

In this book,,only Sister Carrie can present us all of these.At first,she was poor.She had to work hard,but only made ends meet.She admired the pleasure, quick to understand the keener pleasures of life, ambitious to gain in material things.You know, Of an intermediate balance, under the circumstances, there is no possibility. The city has its cunning wiles, no less than the infinitely smaller and more human tempterTheir beauty, like music, too often relaxes, then wakens, then perverts the simpler human perceptions.Then, not only did Carrie feel the drag of desire for all which was new and pleasing in apparel for women, but she noticed too, with a touch at the heart, the fine ladies who elbowed and ignored her, brushing past in utter disregard of her presence. She realized in a dim way how meant for women, and she longed for dress and beauty with a whole heart.Her craving for pleasure was so b that it was the one stay of her nature.

She would speak for that when silent on all else.As a result,she left her sister,following Chas.H.Drouet,a salesman.So she has the beautiful room,has the satisfied dress and so on.For a pereid of time,she was happy and satisfied.But drived by the desire,Sister Carrie wants more. In Carrie-as in how many of our wordings do they not?

instinct and reason, desire and understanding, were at war for the mastery. She followed whither her craving led. She was as yet more drawn than she drew.When she went to the theatre with Drouet that spectacle pleased her immensely. The color and grace of it caught her eye. She had vain imaginings about place. and power, about faroff lands and magnificent people. When it was over, the clatter of coaches and the throng of fine ladies made her stare. CARRIE WAS AN APT STUDENT of fortune’s ways-of for Time’s superficialities. Seeing a thing, she would immediately set to inquiring how she would look, properly rated to it.

Be it known that this is not fine feeling, it is Not wisdom. The greatest minds are not so afflicted; and On the contrary, the lowest order of mind is not so disturbed. Fine clothes to her were a vast persuasion; they spoke tenderly and Jesuitical for themselves. When she came within earshot of their pleading,desire in her bent a willing ear. The voice of the socalled inanimate!If we can say,then she falls in love with Hurstwood,maybe pursuits something in spirit which cannot get from Drouet who seeks the enjoy all day and only cares about himself.With the developing of the story,we can see Carrie going through some difficulties,eloping with Hurstwood.But at last,in New York,Carrie became an actress by chance and turned out to be one of New York"s most popular actresses.Nevertheless,she was not quite happy but felt lonely and void.To the result,I am thinking,maybe this is inevitable.This is the fate in that society.

In the novel,too much gave me a deeply impression,especially the enormous change of Hurstwood.From the manager of a saloon to a beggary,Hurstwood had stolen money from the safe in order to elope with Carrie,but finally committed suicide.What is the reason,who is wrong.Perhaps nobody knows,we cannot say Carrie or his families leading to this.Maybe this is the so-called destiny.But still seems to some deceiving ourselves.

Let us have a look at the other people,the families of the Hurstwood,his wife and daughter,only love the vanity and seek the pleasure.They are cold and selfish.We cannot find the happiness that belongs to a family,Hurstwood cannot feel the warmAnother person,Drouet, He loved fine clothes, good eating, and particularly the company and acquaintanceship of successful men.He has vanity and ambition. He might suffer the least rudimentary twinge of conscience in whatever he did, and in just so far he was evil and sinning.He also loves women. Drouet had a habit, characteristic of his kind, of looking after stylishly dressed or pretty women on the street and remarking upon them. He had just enough of the feminine love of dress to be a good judge-not of intellect, but of clothes.

He saw how they set their little feet, how they carried their chins, with what grace ands sinuosity they swung their bodies. A dainty, self-conscious swaying of the hips by a woman was to him as alluring as the glint of red wine to a toper. He would turn and follow the disappearing vision with his eyes. he would thrill as a child with the unhindered passion that was in him. He loves the thing that women love in themselves, grace. At this their own shrine, he Knelt with them, an ardent devotee.He lost the higher dreame.

No matter the result of these people is good or bad,I will feel sorry for them.They are the sacrifices of the society.We cannot only regard these as the destiny.Something else has led these.Of course, we also cannot say it is the fault of the developmental society.Maybe what we can do is keep ourselves with our best.

Jane Eyre was published in 1847 under the androgynous pseudonym of "Currer Bell." The publication was followed by widespread success. Utilizing two literary traditions, the Bildungsroman and the Gothic novel, Jane Eyre is a powerful narrative with profound themes concerning genders, family, passion, and identity. It is unambiguously one of the most celebrated novels in British literature.

Born in 1816, Charlotte Bronte was the third daughter of Patrick Bronte, an ambitious and intelligent clergyman. According to Newsman, all the Bronte children were unusually precocious and almost ferociously intelligent, and their informal and unorthodox educations under their father’s tutelage nurtured these traits. Patrick Bronte shared his interests in literature with his children, toward whom he behaved as though they were his intellectual equals. The Bronte children read voraciously. Charlotte’s imagination was especially fired by the poetry of Byron, whose brooding heroes served as the prototypes for characters in the Bronte’s juvenile writings as well as for such figures as Mr. Rochester in Jane Eyre (2)。 Bronte’s formal education was limited and sporadic – ten months at the age of 8 at Cowan Bridge Clergy Daughters’ School (the model for Lowood Institution in Jane Eyre), eighteen months from the age of 14 at Roe Head School of Miss Margaret Wooler (the model for Ms. Temple) (Nestor 3-4)。 According to Newman, Bronte then worked as a teacher at Roe Head for three years before going to work as a governess. Seeking an alternative way of earning money, Charlotte Bronte went to Brussels in 1842 to study French and German at the Pensionnat Heger, preparing herself to open a school at the parsonage. She seems to have fallen in love with her charismatic teacher, Constantin Heger. The experience seems on a probable source for a recurrent feature in Bronte’s fiction: “relationships in which the inflammatory spark of intellectual energy ignites an erotic attraction between a woman and a more socially powerful man” (Newman 6)。 The Brontes’ efforts to establish a school at the parsonage never got off the ground. Still seeking ways to make money, Charlotte published, with her sisters, the unsuccessful Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell. Her first effort to publish a novel, The Professor, was also unsuccessful. Jane Eyre, published in October 1847, however, was met with great enthusiasm and became one of the best sellers. As “Currer Bell” Bronte completed two more novels, Shirley and Villette. She married Reverend William Bell Nicholls in 1854 and died nine months later, at the age of thirty-nine in 1855 (Nestor 4-5)。

The story of Jane Eyre takes place in northern England in the early to mid-19th Century. (“Jane Eyre” 151) It starts as the ten-year-old Jane, a plain but unyielding child, is excluded by her Aunt Reed from the domestic circle around the hearth and bullied by her handsome but unpleasant cousins. Under the suggestion of Mr. Lloyd, an apothecary that sympathizes Jane, Mrs. Reed sends Jane to Lowood Institution operated by a hypocritical Evangelicalist, Mr. Brocklehurst, who chastises Jane in front of the class and calls her a liar. At Lowood, Jane befriends with Helen Burns, who helps the newly arrived Jane adjust to the austere

很长一段时间内,我都以为近几十年来的作家都是一些没真本事的人,创作的作品也都没什么水平,及不上前人。我想这样的想法肯定不是基于我低端的水平能对那些作品有所客观正确地评价。毕竟在这个信息化社会中,别人的观点总能潜移默化的影响你。而近来读过路遥先生的大作《平凡的世界》后,才明白“精于此者,大有人在”是为何意。我也在领略作品艺术美的同时,也对先生起了深深地敬佩之情。能写出这样作品的人,怎样赞美都不为过吧!

作为一部现实主义作品,《平凡的世界》在很多地方都引起了我的共鸣,并深为感动。

首先是少平放弃在砖厂。农田帮助家人干活,过平稳的生活。独自一人去黄原城揽活的事。当时的他二十一。二岁,读过许多书,知道外面有一个广阔的世界,不甘愿在父亲与哥哥的下面做着既定的一些事务,如牛马一般。这不是说他想当家做主,他的内心是非常尊敬父兄的,他渴望的是去外面的世界闯荡。无论前方的道路多么泥泞难行,他都渴望前往。天地广阔,总不能做一只坐井观天的青蛙。我觉得驱使他前行的应该是他内心深处一种属于男人的尊严。

其次是润生辞职务农的事,当时村里一队实行了包产到户的政策,两户人家一组。润生的父亲,也就是大队书记田福堂因年事较高。身体又不好。兼之出席会议,没怎么干过农活。在这种情况下,作为教师的的润生毅然辞去教师的职务找到了队长孙少安和队员田海民。他知道父亲从小疼他,小时候就没让自己干过农活,现在必然会反对他,用自己剩存的体力换他的安宁。舒适。可是他更舍不得父亲受苦啊,他已经是一个二十几岁的男人啦。记得当时是这样描写的:润生对他俩说明自己替父务农的来意后,他俩很是理解,因为他们记得当年自己也和润生一样,意识到了对家庭的责任,并勇敢的承担起来了,而后海民欣慰地答应自己与润生组队。润生担起了他的责任,而我们或许还差了些吧!

最后想说的是作品中对爱情的歌颂,其中两次竟让我留下了泪。第一处是兰花和王满银的一段描写:王满银已经累得象散了骨头架;一绺头发聋拉在汗迹斑斑的额头上,手里拉着四岁的女儿猫蛋,松松垮垮地走着。不过,终于释放回来了,他脸上带着说不出的轻松和愉快,一路走,一路嘴里还哼哼唧唧吟着信天游小曲。兰花把两岁的儿子狗蛋抱在自己热烘烘的胸脯里,跟在她的二流子男人身边,也喜得眉开眼笑。半路上,兰花心疼地对男人说:“家里还有六颗鸡蛋,我回去就煮!你和猫蛋狗蛋一人两个!”王满银高兴得嘴一咧,竟然放开声唱了两段子信天游——青线线(那个)蓝线线,蓝格莹莹彩,生下一个兰花花,实实的爱死个人!五谷里(那个)田苗子,唯有高粱高,一十三省的女儿哟,数上(那个)兰花花好……兰花脸涨得通红,跑过去用她那老茧手在王满银的后脑勺上拍了一巴掌。王满银脖子一缩,眼一瞪,嬉皮笑脸地把舌头一吐——他这副鬼样子把两个孩子逗得直笑……第二处是秀英与少安的一段描写:少安和秀莲正准备回家吃饭,书记田福堂突然来到饲养院他们的新房。他拿来两块杭州出的锦花缎被面,说是润叶今天上午捎回来的,让他把这礼物转送给新婚的少安夫妇。田福堂把润叶的礼物放下,就告辞走了。秀莲马上奇怪地问丈夫:“润叶是个什么人,怎给咱送这么重的礼物?”少安尽量轻淡地说:“她是刚来的田大叔的女儿,她和我小时候同过学……”“肯定和你相好过!要不送这么贵的东西?”秀莲敏感地追问。少安承认说:“是相好过……”秀莲突然不言语了,背过身把头低下抠起了手指头。少安一看她这样,就很快转到她面前,开玩笑说:“你们山西人真爱吃醋!”秀莲反而冲动地扑在他怀里,哭了,说:“你再不能和她相好了!”少安手在她头上拍了拍,说:“人家是个干部,在县城工作着哩!”秀莲一听送被面的润叶是个干部,马上揩去脸上的泪水,不好意思地笑了。这她就放心了——一个女干部怎么可能爱她的农民丈夫呢!我想这般朴实真切的感情在当今社会中是没有的,但人总是可以有这样的感情的。记得有句佛语是这样说的:“每个人心中都藏着一尊佛,只是许多人未曾开启而已。”爱情是人类永恒的话题,对爱情的歌颂永远不会落伍。

经典总会流传,当地球绕这太阳又转过许多圈后,在某一个书店的角落里,总还会有读者会为经典而感动。

每一个平凡的世界,都有一个又一个不平凡的人,用汗水创造着一个又一个不平凡的人,路遥,就是那个不平凡的人,在一个平凡的世界创造他的不平凡的人生。《平凡的世界》——一本获得茅盾奖的文学作品,可其中却没有一丝矫揉造作,更没有华丽的辞藻,离奇独特的故事,震撼人心的场面,有的只是平凡的遣词造句,朴质的情感。

路遥创造的这个世界里的村庄是平凡的,这只是黄土高原上几千几万座村落中的一座.主人公孙少安与孙少平兄弟俩,也只是一这个平凡的世界中群面朝黄土背朝天的一个.可他们俩却在这个世界中不断超越自身的局限,最终书写了新的人生之路.同样是做皇帝,武则天却成为了历史上的唯一的女皇帝,书写了一段传奇,同样被苹果砸,牛顿却发现了万有引力,同样是残疾人,有一些却微笑面对……他们一个个用自强与自信、奋斗与拼搏战胜困难,摆脱了属于那个时代的束缚。

也许,不平凡的人生,就诞生在平凡的滴滴点点之中。一时极度贫穷曾让多少有理想的青年意志消亡,停泊在幻想之海,可在逆境中,孙少安和孙少平战胜了自卑与懦弱,用对梦想的渴望给自己一个坚强的理由,划起坚强之舟,用对美好生活的向往,体会生活中间的亲情,友情甚至爱情,让本来渺小而微不足道的自己,为这浩渺的世界添上幸福而温暖的一笔。

拥有了砖窑,踏上了社会,就像所有美好的结局一样,每个人都过上了幸福生活,可在这个平凡的世界中,一切都现实而残酷.孙少安的贤妻因劳累而喷血,孙少平的女友田晓霞在一次采访中去世,李向前虽和润叶在一起却已残废,润生和金波的爱情也没有着落.而路遥正是通过这一凄凉的结局来告诉我们,每一个世界都不完美,生活因苦难才美丽。

篇17:《失乐园》英语读后感

The success of Milton’s Paradise Lost owes much to the depiction of the main epicimage of Satan whose attributes enable him to achieve tragic status. Although Satan may be an epic machine, he is best portrayed as the tragic anti-hero of paradise Lost. The critics in the world have been concerning the image of Satan in Paradise Lost, whose complexity makes the poem more controversial.The reason why the image under Milton’s pen is so complex is that the Satan attracts the poet’s inner force, which drives him to change the people’s traditional ideas and cause resonance of all the revolutionaries.

Satan in the Bible is an image of devil. But in Paradise Lost, Satan challenges the authority of God and want to be free, he is a fighter for freedom. The poet portrayed Satan as a brave hero that went to get rid of god’s domination. In Paradise Lost, the Satan was the most successful image the author shaped.The allure of free will is where the attractiveness and power of Satan"s character lies. Stanley Fish in his essay, ‘The Harassed Reader in Paradise Lost, argues that Satan possesses a form of heroism which is easy to admire because it is visible and flamboyant and that, on that basis, Satan’s attractiveness is only initial. Milton was, undoubtedly, conscious that he was in danger of portraying Satan as too much of a heroic figure and made efforts to be little him through the use of unflattering imagery, and by highlighting his less complimentary characteristics.

Nonetheless, our emotions are still fired. Our first encounter with Satan and his rebel hosts occurs in Book I, when they are recovering from the shock of having been expelled from heaven by the Son after three days of fighting the angels of God. Despite the defeat he has suffered, Satan gains our admiration by displaying resilience in quickly coming to terms with the change in his circumstances, in remustering his forces and organizing the building of his palace, Pandemonium. At the same time he demonstrates his determination not to be defeated and shows true qualities of leadership, persuasively arguing that there is still hope for battle and victory. Satan is convincing in his first speech to Beelzebub, his chief partner in crime, as he declares: What though the field be lost? All is not lost; the unconquerable will, And study of revenge, immortal hate, And courage never to submit or yield: And what is else not to be overcome? That glory never shall his wrath or might Extort from me. Although Satan may be an epic machine, he is best portrayed as the tragic anti-hero of Paradise Lost or, at the very least, a main character who possesses the stature and attributes which enable him to achieve tragic status. In the Greek tradition, the essential components of tragedy are admiration, fear and pity for the ‘hero’, who has to display a tragic weakness or flaw in his character, which will lead to his downfall. It might be argued that the flaws in Satan’s character are such that we should feel no admiration, fear or pity for him, yet he can be seen to inspire these emotions. Satan’s tragic flaws are pointed out in Book I. They are envy, pride, and ambition towards self-glorification. Satan’s pride, in particular, is stressed throughout Paradise Lost.

The poet condemned God through Satan’s words. On the surface, God had given human free will; in fact, he had suppressed the true freedom.Obviously, the poet"s criticism and condemnation of God were out from the social reality of United Kingdom. The tyrant was the embodiment of Stuart. Milton laid his own political tendencies in the great Satan. He portrayed Satan"s resistance as the justice resistance to authoritarian rule and a bold challenge to the violent regime.

《汤姆·索亚历险记》以其浓厚的深具地方特色的幽默和对人物敏锐观察,一跃成为最伟大的儿童文学作品,也是一首美国“黄金时代”的田园牧歌。下面是语文迷为大家提供的《汤姆·索亚历险记》英语读后感,希望对你有帮助。

I believe that one of the factors that makes a piece of literature or even a movie a masterpiece is how well the reader can relate to the story. This is definitely a book everyone can relate to.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a literary masterpieces, written in 1876 by the famous author Mark Twain. Tom Sawyer is a mischievous young boy who lives in the small town on the Mississippi River called St. Petersburg. The story line is simple, the book reads like a biography or a memoir of a summer in Tom Sawyers life.

Tom Sawyer seems to be the precursor of and the template for misfit kids such as Dennis the Menace, Malcolm in the Middle, and Calvin and Hobbs. What makes this story great is that Tom Sawyer represents everything that is great about childhood. The book is filled with Toms adventures playing pirates and war with his friend Joe Harper. Tom has a trusted friend, Huck Finn, who few of the adults approve of. The book is filled with ideas of how the world works, such as how pirates and robbers work, that are so innocent, they could only come from a child. It is a story filled with action, adventure, ingenious ideas, love, and schoolyard politics. The whole story is seemingly a complication of what people did or wish they did during their childhood.

The book is a little difficult to read at first. Personally, it takes me a little while to get used to the 19th century dialect in the book. Other than referring to persons of African decent in derogatory terms (which Im sure uses terms even young children already know), the book would be an enjoyable read for people of all ages. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to feel young again, if just for a few hundred pages.

故事的主人公汤姆是个天真、活泼而又顽皮的典型美国少年。他和野孩子夏克,各干出了许多令人捧腹的妙事。像汤姆被罚粉刷围墙,竟施出诡计,不但使别的孩子心甘情愿代替他工作,还自动奉上谢礼。后来和夏克逃到荒岛去,人们以为他们淹死了,正在教堂为他们举行丧礼,而他们却躲在教堂的钟楼上偷听。这些顽皮的举动,虽然不能给我们做模范,但是,他为了正义,毅然地挺身出来作证人,拯救那无辜的罪犯沫夫彼得。并在顽皮之余,居然和夏克破获了一桩谋杀案,成为众人钦佩的小英雄。看来,汤姆也有值得我们学习的地方。

人总是会长大的,除了个儿长高了,身子强壮了以外,人的思想也在长。你对世界的看法不同了,懂事了,不再幼稚了。不过人是要越变越好才是。千万不能像历险记里的那个心狠手辣的坏蛋卓伊一样,他坏事做尽,人见人憎。但最后他还是恶有恶报,得到了一个活活饿死在山洞里的下场。

看完《汤姆索亚历险记》,我真羡慕汤姆能有如此有趣的经历。这本书让人看起来津津有味,甚至废寝忘食。我想,《汤姆索亚历险记》在你烦闷的时候或许能让你一笑解千愁。

篇19:老人与海英语读后感

全文共 9113 字

When I was a middle school student, I’ve finished this book in Chinese.But when I read it in English,I really gain something new both in the way of expression and the spirit it shows to us.May be different ages to read the same book we will learn different things from it.At least, for my part, that is true.

Firstly,I would like to review some information about this book.Such as the background,major characters and the topic of it.

The Old Man and the Sea is a story by Ernest Hemingway, written in Cuba in 1951 and published in 1952. It was the last major work of fiction to be produced by Hemingway and published in his lifetime. One of his most famous works, it centers upon Santiago, an aging Cuban fisherman who struggles with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream.

The Old Man and the Sea served to reinvigorate Hemingways literary reputation and prompted a reexamination of his entire body of work. The novella was initially received with much popularity; it restored many readers confidence in Hemingways capability as an author. Its publisher, Scribners, on an early dust jacket, called the novella a "new classic," and many critics favorably compared it with such works as William Faulkners "The Bear" and Herman Melvilles Moby-Dick.

This book gives me a deep impression especially the description about the man’s braveness and persistence.

In this book, in order to suggest the profundity of the old man’s sacrifice and the glory that derives from it, Hemingway purposefully likens Santiago to Christ, who, according to Christian theology, gave his life for the greater glory of humankind. Crucifixion imagery is the most noticeable way in which Hemingway creates the symbolic parallel between Santiago and Christ. When Santiago’s palms are first cut by his fishing line, the reader cannot help but think of Christ suffering his stigmata. Later, when the sharks arrive, Hemingway portrays the old man as a crucified martyr, saying that he makes a noise similar to that of a man having nails driven through his hands. Furthermore, the image of the old man struggling up the hill with his mast across his shoulders recalls Christ’s march toward Calvary. Even the position in which Santiago collapses on his bed—face down with his arms out straight and the palms of his hands up—brings to mind the image of Christ suffering on the cross. Hemingway employs these images in the final pages of the novella in order to link Santiago to Christ, who exemplified transcendence by turning loss into gain, defeat into triumph, and even death into renewed life.

The major characters in this book are also vivid and lively.

Santiago?,the old man of the novella’s title, Santiago is a Cuban fisherman who has had an extended run of bad luck. Despite his expertise, he has been unable to catch a fish for eighty-four days. He is humble, yet exhibits a justified pride in his abilities. His knowledge of the sea and its creatures, and of his craft, is unparalleled and helps him preserve a sense of hope regardless of circumstance.

The marlin?,Santiago hooks the marlin, which we learn at the end of the novella measures eighteen feet, on the first afternoon of his fishing expedition. Manolin?,a boy presumably in his adolescence, Manolin is Santiago’s apprentice and devoted attendant. The old man first took him out on a boat when he was merely five years old. Due to Santiago’s recent bad luck, Manolin’s parents have forced the boy to go out on a different fishing boat. Manolin, however, still cares deeply for the old man, to whom he continues to look as a mentor.

Joe DiMaggio, although DiMaggio never appears in the novel, he plays a significant role nonetheless. Santiago worships him as a model of strength and commitment, and his thoughts turn toward DiMaggio whenever he needs to reassure himself of his own strength. Perico ?,Perico, the reader assumes, owns the bodega in Santiago’s village. He never appears in the novel, but he serves an important role in the fisherman’s life by providing him with newspapers that report the baseball scores. This act establishes him as a kind man who helps the aging Santiago.

Martin,like Perico, Martin, a café owner in Santiago’s village, does not appear in the story. The reader learns of him through Manolin, who often goes to Martin for Santiago’s supper. As the old man says, Martin is a man of frequent kindness who deserves to be repaid.

From the very first paragraph, Santiago is characterized as someone struggling against defeat. He has gone eighty-four days without catching a fish—he will soon pass his own record of eighty-seven days. Almost as a reminder of Santiago’s struggle, the sail of his skiff resembles “the flag of permanent defeat.” But the old man refuses defeat at every turn: he resolves to sail out beyond the other fishermen to where the biggest fish promise to be. He lands the marlin, tying his record of eighty-seven days after a brutal three-day fight, and he continues to ward off sharks from stealing his prey, even though he knows the battle is useless.

Because Santiago is pitted against the creatures of the sea, some readers choose to view the tale as a chronicle of man’s battle against the natural world, but the novella is, more accurately, the story of man’s place within nature. Both Santiago and the marlin display qualities of pride, honor, and bravery, and both are subject to the same eternal law: they must kill or be killed. As Santiago reflects when he watches the weary warbler fly toward shore, where it will inevitably meet the hawk, the world is filled with predators, and no living thing can escape the inevitable struggle that will lead to its death. Santiago lives according to his own observation: “man is not made for defeat . . . [a] man can be destroyed but not defeated.” In Hemingway’s portrait of the world, death is inevitable, but the best men (and animals) will nonetheless refuse to give in to its power. Accordingly, man and fish will struggle to the death, just as hungry sharks will lay waste to an old man’s trophy catch.

The novel suggests that it is possible to transcend this natural law. In fact, the very inevitability of destruction creates the terms that allow a worthy man or beast to transcend it. It is precisely through the effort to battle the inevitable that a man can prove himself. Indeed, a man can prove this determination over and over through the worthiness of the opponents he chooses to face. Santiago finds the marlin worthy of a fight, just as he once found “the great negro of Cienfuegos” worthy. HSantiago, though destroyed at the end of the novella, is never defeated. Instead, he emerges as a hero. Santiago’s struggle does not enable him to change man’s place in the world. Rather, it enables him to meet his most dignified destiny.

While it is certainly true that Santiago’s eighty-four-day run of bad luck is an affront to his pride as a masterful fisherman, and that his attempt to bear out his skills by sailing far into the gulf waters leads to disaster, Hemingway does not condemn his protagonist for being full of pride. On the contrary, Santiago stands as proof that pride motivates men to greatness. Because the old man acknowledges that he killed the mighty marlin largely out of pride, and because his capture of the marlin leads in turn to his heroic transcendence of defeat, pride becomes the source of Santiago’s greatest strength. Without a ferocious sense of pride, that battle would never have been fought, or more likely, it would have been abandoned before the end.

Santiago’s pride also motivates his desire to transcend the destructive forces of nature. Throughout the novel, no matter how baleful his circumstances become, the old man exhibits an unflagging determination to catch the marlin and bring it to shore. When the first shark arrives, Santiago’s resolve is mentioned twice in the space of just a few paragraphs. Even if the old man had returned with the marlin intact, his moment of glory, like the marlin’s meat, would have been short-lived. The glory and honor Santiago accrues comes not from his battle itself but from his pride and determination to fight.

Santiago dreams his pleasant dream of the lions at play on the beaches of Africa three times. The first time is the night before he departs on his three-day fishing expedition, the second occurs when he sleeps on the boat for a few hours in the middle of his struggle with the marlin, and the third takes place at the very end of the book. In fact, the sober promise of the triumph and regeneration with which the novella closes is supported by the final image of the lions. Because Santiago associates the lions with his youth, the dream suggests the circular nature of life. Additionally, because Santiago imagines the lions, fierce predators, playing, his dream suggests a harmony between the opposing forces—life and death, love and hate, destruction and regeneration—of nature.

This book gives me courage of conquering all kinds of difficulties .And I have the belief that the most beautiful thing is the process that we make our best to achieve our dream,and never say give up .
