《平凡的世界》读后感英语【汇总20篇】

Mr。 A Gan is a man who is short in intelligence but rich in mind! It is impossible for us to make the wildest guess at what achievements he could fulfill。 History does not recount whether a man regarded as ‘stupid’ can do so many amazing things， but the fact is that he does gains a great deal of unexpected fame and success。

The deep impression that the movie give me is that he just keep running all the time。 Mr。 A Gan， it seems， has run into the university， the White House and even the whole continent。 Sometimes I wonder if we all misunderstand the true meaning of smart and clever， for Mr。 A Gan has taught us a very different lesson。 From my point of view， kindness and simplicity is the cleverest wealth that God has given us。

But of the human beings， unpredictable Nature selected only Mr。 A Gan， one wonders also why Nature， with Mr。 A Gan， made it possible that people who was treated as a fool can surely make a difference。 Mr。 A Gan’s success is no accident。 There is no doubt that ordinary people like you and me can live a rich life by perseverance!

《丑小鸭》英语读后感篇一：

After reading "the ugly duckling" this article, I know the "cant judge a book by its cover," cant laugh at others.

Although some people childhood long ugly, but her good heart, wisdom, and can grow up to be a beautiful "white swan". Some people childhood long quite beautiful, like a princess, but her heart malice, love to laugh at other people, wait until a day, she will be a friend also have no, the longer the ugly, childhood "white swan" will also become "the ugly duckling".

The appearance of beauty and ugliness is only a small part of life.

I think that although this article of the ugly duckling no faith, but it is still very strong, it knows that long very ugly, it know friends dont like it, but it does not want to: "since I long that ugly, since the friends all dont like me, I live in the world still have what use!" If I were in the article the ugly duckling, those little duck, the dog and the cat to laugh at me, I will say unto them ": although I am ugly, but Im good heart, a strong, there will always be those who like me."

We want to XiangWenZhang backwater of learning, no matter what others say, you have to be strong, dont give up, we also a reason to know a mans tenth lies not in the physical appearance, beautiful truth in having a pure mind."

《丑小鸭》英语读后感篇二：

The author pays homage to Hans Christian Andersens compassionate tale with this faithful adaptation. Kids can relate to the ducklings dilemma; part of the growing-up process is pulling away from those around you and developing a strong sense of self. Children have also witnessed or experienced the teasing that is part and parcel of childhood.

This ageless story speaks across generations with its reaffirming message. In this age of instant gratification, Andersens tale reminds readers that some things are worth waiting for and that a pleasure deferred (whether by choice or necessity) is often the sweetest one of all.

Pinkneys descriptive passages resonate with the splendor of natures beauty. The glowing watercolors, filled with intricate details, make each blade of grass visible, and the delicately drawn, nearly transparent mosquitoes are as ethereal as they are in life. The subtle details incorporated into the scenes--a frog catching a passing fly at the pond and a tiny mouse perched by a crate in the old womans cottage--make children take another look.

One day he heard a sound of whirring wings, and up in the air he saw a flock of birds flying high. They were as bright as the snow that had fallen during the night, and their long necks were stretched southward. Oh, if only he could go with them! But what sort of companion could he be to those beautiful beings?

I am too ugly even for a dog to eat, the duckling thought. Jerry Pinkneys poignant text and rich artwork convey the timeless appeal of this tale of hardship and redemption. Anyone who has suffered the sting of ostracism can sympathize with the ugly ducklings plight and will relish the uplifting conclusion.

Read "one man to cherish life", so I know life is everywhere, everywhere, life is so precious! With life, there is competition and struggle; with life, there will be happiness and sadness; with life, there is hope and ideals, with life, only to cherish life.

Jack Londons love of life tells a story about life. The works show that the strong breath of nature, brave and adventurous romantic spirit, strong will and to "live" deeply attracted me, reading people excited: a western American prospectors friend cruel abandoned was on his way back, he walked alone in the vast on the moor. The winter approached, and the cold wind caught him with snow, and he had no more food, and his legs were hurt, his shoes were broken, his feet were bleeding. He can only waiwaixiexie to stumble in the swamp covered hills, stream of wasteland, very difficult to move forward. Even at the end of the day, he had to climb forward. Just after his body was very weak and fainted, his danger came! He met a wolf who was equally hungry! The sick wolf followed him closely, licking his blood. In this way, a fierce battle between life and death began! Two dying creatures dragged their dying bodies and hunted each other in the wilderness. In order to go back alive, in order to overcome this horse he sick sick wolf, although the disease is still exhausted, hungry and exhausted all efforts in unarmed combat killed a wolf, the wolfs blood to drink. Finally, by the wilderness of ice and snow, he came to the beach and was rescued by a whale ship.

The novel clearly shows a man in the wilderness through the difficult process of survival, quietly portrays life great and powerful, is a celebration of life. "Love of life" by readers of the Blitz, is not accidental, because we can see from the face of harsh environment peoples indomitable will, dare to challenge and go beyond the limit of life, to create a miracle of life. Especially people fight in bed and illness, from which we can draw the power of life. Like the hero of the book, never give up, never give up, life strangling the throat, become a powerful life.

Ostrovsky once said: "the most precious thing is life.". Life belongs to man only once." Yes, how sacred and precious life is. However, in real life, some people lament, people complain that Life is but a dream. Born Under A Bad Sign, I do not intend to live, more people say life is painful and boring, even some people because a little small setbacks on the yield. Self abandonment, mediocrity in life.

Yeah! Life is your own, we can make it valuable, also can make it valuable, also can make it intense darkness without light. Therefore, we should be responsible for ourselves, we should cherish life, let the limited life to create unlimited glory!

I think this book is worthy to reading, it make us cherish our life.

Animal Farm tells a story that one day the animals overthrow the farmer Mr. Jones, and found their own regime, called Animal Farm They adopt Seven Commandments of Animalism, of which the most important is All animals are equal。 Pigs are the leaders of the operation of the newly start-up farm.Thanks to the right lead of the pigs and selfless and hardworking of all animals, the Animal Farm develops good enough to their demands.

However, the leaders separate into two factions soon after. As a result, Snowball is expelled by Napoleon as a betrayer. Although many animals remember that Snowball is a brave leader, they firmly believe they were wrong and Snowball is a bad animal indeed after brainwashing Napoleon offered. What’s more, the Seven Commandments of Animalism had also been changed. Finally, the Animal Farm becomes quite different from what they hope it to be at the beginning.

From the novel; I expressively feel the great power of faith. With the faith of Animalism, they finally found their regime, and struggle the equal from humans. And because of the faith, Napoleon can still rule the wretched animals, even though Snowball has gone. In our daily life, faith is indispensable as well. Faith just as flame, guiding us and supporting us when we feel frustrated as well as every time we need power to keep going ahead. When the Animal Farm is in mess, the animals still believe in their faith and Animalism. As to us, this believing is needed. Sometimes we may think we are in a wrong road to our dream, or we lose heart of ourselves, considering we aren"t as well as respect, we need believe. A b faith just likes a protection, and we are protected by it from kinds of difficulties.

Today, I read "Snow White." Major topics of a queen to give birth to a snow-white skin, red lips, a daughter and she gave birth to a daughter, as she wished the Princesss skin white as snow, lips red, so named Snow White. Snow White Queen, when the living dead. The king married a new queen, the new Queen, there are side mirror on the wall, the new queen every day, asking who is the worlds most beautiful Mirror, mirror on the wall said: It is you. This would ask the mirror each day the Queen. One day, mirror on the wall is you, but no Snow White, the United States several times more than you. The Queen is very angry, so she sent to kill Snow White, but the Queen sent Snow White, who do not have the heart to kill, but to put Snow White. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs encountered, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs shelter, the queen that Snow White did not die, they start with himself. Although the queen won. But the prince saved Snow White. Queen also dies eventually.

This fairy tale tells us that we should not have a jealous heart, to do a good people, good will overcome evil with evil means will not achieve victory. To stay competitive to compete on the open and aboveboard.

There is such a person, he is a doctor, but the very obsession for sailing adventure, although every time almost died, does not lose enthusiasm, he was in a strange island through series of memorable times, who is he? By the way, is gulliver.

Gulliver has been to four isolated islands - Lilliput, giants, flying island, and the houyhnhnms. In Lilliput, initially, the king treat gulliver like a child. But then for a ridiculous reason, lead to the power split into two continuous small country. A country that has entertained a gulliver many days, let him to fight against another country, gulliver didnt promise, so the king of his exertion. And once built a fire, the palace gulliver in a hurry, suddenly into the use of urine douse the fire. Liledagong originally, but the king listen to chan said, believed to be insulted him, also want to kill gulliver, thanks to a secretary told him to avoid the disaster.

In the giant countries, the situation much worse than Lilliput. Because they all think that gulliver is not a real person, but to a person like robot, so dont put the gulliver seriously, because of the small, everyday want to go to the street performances. Gulliver cant stand this slave life, he escaped while owners do not pay attention to.

In all gulliver sailing experience the most interesting is in the flying island. Where there are a lot of good to be true. Someone says, can be extracted from the cucumber sunshine, but he has never been successful. There is also a architect want to build a house from top to bottom, and flushed to argue that many insects are building houses in this way. On the other side of the flying island is wu, a man born inside there is magic, those flowers look very common, actually hold great power.

On our way to the adventure gulliver with wisdom and courage to overcome the one after another difficult. In the future study, we also want to like him, work hard, go forward.

有这样一个人，他是一个医生，但对航海冒险十分痴迷，虽然每次都差点丧生，却丝毫不减热情，他在一个个奇怪的岛上度过一段段难忘的时光，他是谁呢?对了，就是格列佛。

格列佛先后去过四个与世隔绝的小岛——小人国、巨人国、飞岛国和慧马国。在小人国里，最初，国王就像对待孩子一样对待格列佛。可是后来因为一条荒唐的理由，导致这个大国分裂成两个战火不断的小国。一国认为已款待了格列佛许多日子，就让他去攻打另外一个国家，格列佛没有答应，于是国王对他冷若冰霜。还有一次皇宫里起了火，格列佛匆匆赶来，忽然灵机一动用尿浇灭了火。本来立了大功，可国王听信馋言，认为是侮辱了他，还想毒死格列佛，幸亏一个大臣告诉了他才避免了灾难。

在巨人国里，情况可比小人国要糟得多。因为他们都认为格列佛不是真正的人，而是一种类似人的机器人，所以不把格列佛当回事，因为小巧，每天都要去街上表演节目赚钱。格列佛不能忍受这种奴隶的生活，便趁主人不注意逃走了。

在格列佛所有航海经历中最有趣的莫过于在飞岛国了。在那里有许多异想天开的人。有人说，能从黄瓜里提取阳光，但他从未成功过。还有一个建筑师想要从上到下建房子，还面红耳赤地争辩说许多昆虫就是这样造房子的。在飞岛国的另一边是巫人国，里面的人生下来就有魔法，那些花花草草看起来很普通，实际上却蕴含着巨大的力量。

格列佛在冒险途中，用智慧和勇气战胜了一个又一个困难。在今后的学习中，我们也要像他一样奋力拼搏，勇往直前。

它，是一部感人肺腑的长篇小说，在小仲马的笔下，主人公以分别写下了悲伤的结局。它，就是那部举世闻名的《茶花女》。

It is a touch one deeply in the heart, the novel, in Dumass pen, the heroine to wrote sad ending. It is the Department, be known to all the worlds "La Traviata".

当我看到玛格丽特和阿尔芒在一起时，我比谁都高兴;但她离开了一直深爱她的阿尔芒，我又为阿尔芒感到愤愤不平;终于，阿尔芒一次次伤害着心灵脆弱的玛格丽特，我伤了心;最后，玛格丽特无助的眼神，阿尔芒诚恳的忏悔，我不得不将眼睛从书上移开，心里好像被刀绞了一下，痛得不得了。

When I saw Margaret and Armand together, I ratio who all happy; but she left has been in love with her Armand, I feel be indignant and Armand; finally, Armand again and again hurt heart vulnerable Margaret, I hurt the heart; finally, Margaret helpless eyes, Armand sincerely repent, I have to the eyes away from the book, the heart seems to be a knife twisted up, painful.

虽然经过了那么多的转折，有情人却没有终成眷属，天各一方，然而，玛格丽特是坚强的，因为她知道，只要她离开阿尔芒，他就会拥有一切，她没有为了自己而依然和他在一起，而是忍痛割爱，为了阿尔芒的幸福着想，心痛的离开了他，这种品质是我们没有的，虽说她是一个妓女，却有着如此高尚的品格，是多么叫人钦佩啊!

Even after so many twists, lovers never married, separated, however, Margaret is strong, because she knew that, as long as she left Armand, and he will have it all, she is not to own and still with him, but gives up reluctantly, in order to Armand happiness, heartache leave him, this quality is what we dont have, though she is a prostitute, so they have a noble character, is so admired ah!

我们是出身与良好家庭的，但有的人品质恶劣，欺软怕硬，这种行为是不良好的，要像玛格丽特一样，出身卑微，却是圣洁的。这样一来，才能成为好孩子!

We are born with a good family, but some bad quality, bully the weak and fear the strong, this kind of behavior is not good, like Margaret, who was of humble origin, is holy. In this way, to be a good child!

这考试后的这几天，我把《平凡的世界》这本书已经看完了。这本书让我懂得了许多，也有许多情节令我感动，有许多人令我铭记在心，他们的精神值得我们学习，也有许多事情值得我们借鉴。

孙少安那种为了家人可以放弃一切的。他为了不连累自己心爱的润叶，在润叶给他表达自己的爱意后选择逃避。为了让家里少些负担，就娶了不要彩礼钱的与二妈一族的秀莲。两人从此相爱了﹔孙少平可以因为自己善良的本性去原谅那个伤害过自己的郝红梅。在侯玉英的爸爸在门市部抓住了偷了手绢的郝红梅后，非常理智的放了郝红梅，还让知道此事的所有人都不要把这件事告诉别人，尽管郝红梅曾经欺骗过自己的感情﹔兰香是这个家里最小的孩子，但她却非常懂事。在家里其他人正在为姐夫的事焦急时，她独自一人默默地去喂猪，拾柴禾。

对比在黄土高原艰难地生活着的人民群众，我们还有理由叫苦吗？他们有的甚至连饭都吃不饱，有时遇到旱灾会没有粮食等等一些困难，都使我们为此感到愧疚、难过、悲痛。

读完这本书后，我学会了自立自强、乐于助人、积极向上、敢于面对、善于原谅他人等一些精神品质。我会在生活中努力做到这些的，让我们一起加油！

读书不仅带给我们知识，还带给我们做人的道理。培根说过：“读书使人充实，讨论使人机智，笔记使人准确，读史使人明智，读诗使人灵秀，数学使人周密，科学使人深刻，伦理使人庄重，逻辑修辞使人善辩。凡有所学，皆成性格。”

让我们一起读好书，行好事，做好人吧！

平凡世界，平凡人生。每天清晨第一缕阳光照向大地，普普通通勤劳忙碌的人们开始了一天的辛勤的劳作。日子虽然清苦、清苦的让人感到寒酸，但在那个艰苦的日子里人们从来没有放弃对美好生活的向往，动脑子、想办法他们用自己勤劳的双手努力拼搏改变着自己的命运。

肥沃而广袤的大地上从来不缺少男人劳作的身影，他们光着膀子，挽起裤腿，被太阳晒得发黑的皮肤在汗水的映衬下发着耀眼的光。他们喊着号子个个争先恐后麻利的锄完了一块块土地，辛苦的土地劳作一点也没有难倒这帮汉子们，当他们拿起毛巾擦去额头的汗水，嘴角依然流露出幸福的微笑。仿佛今年丰收的场面就在眼前一样。

在这个貌似男人的世界里女人们一样扛起了锄头，毛巾裹头挽起了袖子一点也没有输给男人的样子。就是在男人们劳作完后会温柔的递过一碗水，只见他们端过碗仰起脖子一饮而尽后憨憨的一笑，好像是喝了蜜一样幸福甜蜜。这样平凡的场景在一次次重演,人们也就是在这样的场景里度过了一个又一个辛苦而又幸福的日子。

旧社会一直遵循着女子无才便是德的传统理念，重男轻女的思想一直很严重，很多地方一直流传着嫁汉嫁汉穿衣吃饭的顺口溜，女人们把自己的命运交给了别人，许多女性连自己的婚姻也无法自己做主，嫁鸡随鸡，嫁狗随狗，一切生杀大权都掌握在男人手中，丈夫可以胡作非为，女人却不能有半点恼怒，很多因为包办的婚姻所以没什么感情而言，稍不如意则横加痛斥，动则拳脚相见幸福二字无从谈起。这样的社会环境下广大女性无法获得学习的机会，只能整天围着锅台转，对外面的世界更是无法知晓。1949年10月1日这是一个伟大的日子。“中华人民共和国成立了”，欣欣向荣崭新的国家屹立在世界之林，工业、农业都有了长足的进步和发展，国家的妇女解放运动也进入了崭新的一页。“妇女能抵半边天”广大女性从旧思想里解放出来，去除了包办婚姻等一系列旧的思想和传统陋习，她们一样扛起锄头参加劳动、组织生产、背上书包学习文化知识。工、农、商、学、兵里都有了女性的身影。像孙少安一样拼搏有为的中华男儿有之，像田润叶一样敢爱敢恨，对自己的爱情、生活、有理想有追求的女子们更加有之。她们从此改变了自己的命运，紧紧的将命运掌握在自己手里。

回顾历史在中华泱泱五千年的历史长河里，巾帼不让须眉的女汉子自古有之，花木兰替父从军一十二载，载誉而归;花甲之年的穆桂英亲帅三军北击大辽，为大宋王朝立下了丰功伟业;民族存亡的历史时刻，中华儿女前仆后继沉重打击了日本帝国主义的侵略战争，并最终取得了伟大胜利，抗击日本侵略的历史书和人民纪念碑上亦有赵一曼、秋瑾、刘胡兰浓墨重彩的一笔。

网络时代的今天，女性已经在许多领域和学科里都有自己不凡的建树，通过自身的努力实现着自我的价值。路遥在《平凡的世界》一书中说：在我们短促而漫长的一生中，我们在苦苦寻找人生的幸福，可幸福往往又与我们失之交臂。当我们为此而耗尽宝贵的青春年华，皱纹也悄悄爬上了眼角的时候，我们或许才能悄悄懂得生活实际上的意味着什么......今日的生活与过往相比更多了一些纸醉金迷、灯红酒绿，多了一些浮躁少了一丝平静。老公是一个嗜茶如命的人，他常常一个人泡一壶清茶独自品上一阵。他说人在草木间事事不可能尽如人意，工作的压力、人情的冷暖、浮躁的人心都随着一壶新绿一杯茗茶慢慢的平复。人生应该像茶一样有一点点苦涩也有一点点甘甜，苦尽甘来生活才会更生动、更美好、更加韵味悠长。

我们身处群山环抱、绿树成荫的美好自然环境下，踏春踩青感受自然从你我做起静下心来倾听自己的心声，用心去感悟放下一切苦累。“腹有诗书气自华”每天去读一本书，去学习、去思考、让自己的生活更有意义，让自己的人生更有价值。

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。

This year summer vacation, I read the American well-known writer Hemingways novel " old person and sea ". I extremely admire in the novel the senior fishermans will, he let me understand one person certainly must have relentless spirit, only then could obtain successfully.

The novel description is one year near sixty years of age senior fisherman, when alone goes to sea in one fishing, fished one big fish, actually did not pull. The senior fisherman socialized several days after the fish, only then discovered this was the big marlin which one surpassed the oneself fishing boat several fold, although knew perfectly well very difficult to win, but still did not give up. Afterwards and further because in the big marlin wound fish fishy smell brought in several crowds of shark fish snatches the food, but the old person still did not hope like this to give up, finally highlighted encircles tightly, returned to the big fish belt the fishing port, lets other fishermen not admire already.

When I read " the senior fisherman think: Here to the seacoast really was too near, perhaps could have a bigger fish in a farther place... " When, I extremely admire this senior fisherman, because he by now already projected on some fish, but he had not settled to the present situation, but was approaches the bigger goal advance. Again has a look us, usually meets one slightly is difficult, we all complain incessantly. We will be the motherland future, will be supposed to like this old person same mind lofty aspiration, will even better pursue even better, the bigger goal.

When I read " the big marlin start fast to gather round the young fishing boat hover, twined the cable on the mast, the old person right hand lifted up high the steel fork, leapt the water surface in it the flash, did utmost throws to its heart, one wail ended the big fishs life, it was static static floats on the water surface... " When, my heart also liked together the big stone falls. I extremely admire old person that kind do not dread, the relentless spirit, although knows the match strength is very strong, but he not slightly flinches, but is welcomes difficultly above. Just because had this kind of spirit, the senior fisherman only then achieved this life and death contest success. We also must study senior fishermans spirit in life, handles the matter does not fear the difficulty, only then can obtain successfully.

Was reading the big fishs smell of blood is smelled by one crowd of shark fish, struggled swims snatches the food, old persons left hand happen to in the convulsions, he only could use the right hand, with wooden stick, the mouth and so on all was allowed to use for the weapon self-defense which attacked, and finally expelled this crowd of shark fish. But the big fishs meat was already eaten one most, but the old person also charmingly criticized oneself the left hand " this work time actually was resting " time, I also was subdued by the old person optimistic spirit. In the life, some losses are inevitable, we should treat by the optimistic manner, cannot be calculating.

Finally, the novel sees by one youth the senior fisherman fully has 18 foot long big marlin in the measure, once more described this fishs hugeness, explained senior fisherman overcomes the difficulty was big, non- was more common than.

The novel eulogized the spirit which the senior fisherman fear hard and dangerous diligently did not struggle, we also should like his such, could not satisfy the present situation, should positively to above, do any matter all is relentless, meets difficultly must welcome difficultly above, could give up halfway in no way. Only has this, we only then can obtain a bigger success and the victory.

今年暑假,我读了美国著名作家海明威的小说“老人与海”。我非常佩服小说中高级的渔夫的意志,他让我明白一个人一定要有不屈不挠的精神,才可能获得成功。

这部小说描述一年近六十岁的高级渔夫,当独自一人去海上钓鱼,钓一条大鱼,其实没有拉。高级的渔夫社会化几天后鱼,才发现这是超过了自己的大马林鱼渔船几折,虽然知道很难取胜,但仍不放弃。后来又因大马林鱼伤口在几个成群的鲨鱼鱼鱼鱼腥味带来一阵食物,但老人还是不希望这样放弃,最终突出环绕,返回到大鱼带渔港,让其他渔夫不钦佩了。

当我读到“高级的渔夫想:这里的海岸真的是太近,可能会有更大的鱼在更远的地方……“时,我非常佩服这个高级渔夫,因为他现在已经预计在一些鱼,但他没有解决现状,但方法更大的目标前进。再看看我们,通常遇到一个略是困难的,我们都不停地抱怨。我们将是祖国的未来,应该像这样老人相同心灵崇高的愿望,将更好的追求更好,更大的目标。

当我读到“大马林鱼开始快速聚集年轻的渔船盘旋缠绕电缆在桅杆上,老人右手高举高的钢叉,跳跃水面flash,并最大限度抛出其心,哀号一结束了大鱼的生命,它是静态的静态漂浮在水面……“当,我的心也喜欢一起大的石瀑布。我非常钦佩老人那种不恐惧,无情的精神,虽然知道比赛实力很强,但他没有略就会闪躲,但欢迎上述困难。只是因为有了这种精神,高级的渔夫才取得了这生死比赛成功。我们还必须学习高级渔夫的精神生活,做事情不怕困难,才能取得成功。

阅读大鱼的血的气味是由一群鲨鱼闻到了鱼,挣扎着游一阵食物,老人的左手正好在抽搐,他只能使用右手,用木棒、嘴等一切可以用来攻击的武器自卫,并最终被这群鲨鱼的鱼。但大鱼的肉已经吃了一大部分,但是老人也快乐地批评自己的左手“该工作时间实际上是休息”,我也被老人的乐观精神迟滞。在生活中,有些损失是不可避免的,我们应该以乐观的态度对待,不能计算。

小说最后,看到一个青年高级的渔夫充分衡量有十八英尺长的大马林鱼,再次描述这条鱼的巨大,说明老渔夫克服了困难很大,非是更常见。

小说歌颂高级的渔夫的精神恐惧艰难和危险的努力没有斗争,我们也应该像他这样,不能满足于现状,应该积极,做任何事都是无情的,遇到困难必须欢迎以上困难,绝不中途放弃。只有这样,我们才可以获得更大的成功和胜利。

I”d never given much thought to how I would die. But dying in the place of someone I love seems like a good way to go. " When reading such moving words, I am completely absorbed in this splendid novel --- Twilight. The person who had said such moving words was a 17-year-old girl --- Bella, who was a high school student. After reading the whole novel, what impresses me most is not the mysterious vampires family, but the kindhearted and brave girl --- Bella. Bella was a 17-year-old girl who has experienced her parents” divorce. In order not to be an obstacle to her mother”s happiness with her stepfather, Bella firmly chose to move into a new city --- Forks to live with her father. Even though she knew that what was waiting for her was the new and strange circumstance, Bella still decided to face all of them fearlessly, which makes me know that Bella is a really thoughtful and considerate girl.

As a matter of fact, Bella was just an ordinary human girl who would grow old as time went by and die one day, but Edward was an immortal vampire who had an exceptional and unique strength of reading people”s minds. Actually, some people may wonder why Edward would fall in love with such a delicate human girl, while others may hold a doubtful attitude towards their love story. However, to my mind, I strongly believe that Bella and Edward can lead a happy life. About one thing I am absolutely positive, they can lead a happy life and they needs to confront with various of hardships and setbacks. But why am I so positive about their love story? Let me have an analysis!

Bella is a kindhearted and independent girl who never goes with tide. She always sticks to her own way of doing everything. On her first day to school, Edward came across with Bella, and at that moment Edward could not move his eyes on Bella at his first sight on her. I clearly know that it was Bella”s unique and special character that drew Edward”s attention. In Edward”s mind, Bella was a natural girl with a kind heart. After several days” struggle, Edward could not prevent himself from caring about her and loving her though he knew perfectly well that it would be a fateful and deadly thing for a vampire to fall in love with a human girl. From this, it can be seemed that what a charismatic and glamorous girl Bella was.

When Edward said to Bella, "I don”t have the strength to stay away from you forever." I know, Edward had already been loving Bella deeply.

When Bella answered "I”ll be with you forever, Edward." I can realize their love has already been surpassed human in human”s innermost feelings.

When Edward said, "You don”t know how long I”ve waited for you, Bella" I know, Bella is the most suitable one for him, only with Bella can Edward gains the real happiness.

When Edward swore, "You”re my life now, Bella." I think all the lovers will be overwhelmed by such impressive words at that moment, as well as I. I know, from then on, Edward would move heaven and earth to protect Bella. There is no doubt that Bella is happy when being with Edward.

To be honest, Twilight is the best romance novel that I”ve ever read. There is no much flourish in it, but there are lots of touching and thrilling plots between Edward and Bella. I still remember every time Bella was in danger, Edward could helped her out in time, which made Bella feel so grateful and become interested in him gradually.

There was a time when Bella was on her way home from a bookstore alone, suddenly a gang of ruffians molested her, Bella felt helpless and hopeless. Fortunately, Edward appeared as a hero and rescued the beauty, Bella. At that moment, I couldn”t help praising, that Edward was such a thoughtful gentleman who cares about the person he loves at any time. No wonder Bella would love him.

Then when Edward told Bella he had a super strength that he could read every person”s mind except Bella”s one. You can not imagine that, Bella”s first reaction to it was --- "Is there something wrong with me?" Hearing that, Edward smiled and said, "I tell you I can read minds, and you think there is something wrong with you." At that time, Edward knew Bella was a kind girl indeed, who would not be worried and scared when hearing such unusual truth, but just try to find the mistakes of herself.

Once Edward took Bella to his home to meet his family members, instead of being afraid, Bella asked Edward what if his families didn”t like her. Edward was so surprise to hear that and said to Bella, "you are worried not because you”ll be in a house full of vampires, but because you think they won”t approve of you? " Then, I know, Bella has never treated Edward as a different kind. May I ask, how can Edward refuse such a kind and lovely girl. When Edward took Bella to fly through the forest in his amazing speed, I think no more girls can refuse such a romantic man.

Bella pursued the true love belong to her bravely, while Edward was giving all his love to the one he loved. I know this is love.

All in all, romantic love always has a happy ending. When Bella went through life and death, when Edward experienced the cruel ordeal, seeing they were dancing romantically at last, I can say their love will be going on.

Thoughts or reflections on reading Wuthering Heights

The book was written by Emily Bronte, it published in 1847.But at that time, it seemed to hold little promise, selling very poorly and receiving only a few mixed reviews. I found this in our school library, I chose this book because the title attracted me. The book is structured around two parallel love stories, the first half of the novel centering on the love between Catherine and Heathcliff, while the less dramatic second half features the developing love between young Catherine and Hareton. In contrast to the first, the latter tale ends happily, restoring peace and order to Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange. In the story, the two houses, Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange, represent opposing worlds and values.

I spent twenty days reading this book. After reading this book, I felt for Heathcliff at first. Heathcliff begins his life as a homeless orphan on the streets of Liverpool, and then he tyrannized by Hindley Earnshaw. But he becomes a villain when he acquires power and returns to Wuthering Heights with money and the trappings of a gentleman. His malevolence proves so great and long—lasting. As he himself points out, his abuse of Isabella—his wife is purely sadistic, as he amuses himself by seeing how much abuse she can take and still come cringing back for more.

Catherine represents wild nature, in both her high, lively spirits and her occasional cruelty. She loves Heathcliff so intensely that she claims they are the same person. However, her actions are driven in part by her social ambitions, which initially are awakened during her first stay at the Lintons, and which eventually compel her to marry Edgar. Catherine is free—spirited, beautiful, spoiled, and often arrogant, she is given to fits of temper, and she is torn between her both of the men who love her. The location of her coffin symbolizes the conflict that tears apart her short life. She is buried in a corner of the Kirkyard. In contrast to Catherine, Isabella Linton—Catherine’s sister—in—law represents culture and civilization, both in her refinement and in her weakness. Ultimately, she ruins her life by falling in love with Heathcliff. He never returns her feelings and treats her as a meretool in his quest for revenge on the Linton family.

Just as Isabella Linton serves as Catherine’s foil, Edgar Linton serves as Heathcliff’s. Edgar grows into a tender, constant, but cowardly man. He is almost the ideal gentleman. However, this full assortment of gentlemanly characteristics, along with his civilized virtues, proves useless in Edgar’s clashes with his foil. He sees his wife obviously in love with another man but unable to do anything to rectify the situation. Heathcliff, who gains power over his wife, sister , and daughter.

The whole story make people’s mood heavy. Fortunately, the end is happy.

The author Emily Bronte lived an eccentric, closely guarded life. She was born in 1818, two years after Charlotte—the author of Jane Eyre and a year and a half before her sister Anne, who also became an author. Her father worked as a church rector, and her aunt, who raised the Bronte children after their mother died, was deeply religious. Emily Bronte did not take to her aunt’s Christian fervor, the character of Joseph, a caricature of an evangelical, may have been inspired by her aunt’s religiosity. The Brontes lived in Haworth, a Yorkshire village in the midst of the moors. These wild, desolate expanses—later the setting of Wuthering Heights—made up the Brontes daily environment, and Emily lived among them her entire life. She died in 1848, at the age of thirty.

I like this book because it rest on the unforgettable characters. Wuthering Heights is based partly on the Gothic tradition, a style of literature that featured supernatural encounters, crumbling ruins, moonless nights, and grotesque imagery, seeking to create effects of mystery and fear. I would like to recommend this book to other readers.

【英文】 Sense and Sensibility was the first Jane Austen published. Though she initially called it Elinor and Marianne, Austen jettisoned both the title and the epistolary mode in which it was originally written, but kept the essential theme: the necessity of finding a workable middle ground between passion and reason. The story revolves around the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. Whereas the former is a sensible, rational creature, her younger sister is wildly romantic--a characteristic that offers Austen plenty of scope for both satire and compassion. Commenting on Edward Ferrars, a potential suitor for Elinors hand, Marianne admits that while she "loves him tenderly," she finds him disappointing as a possible lover for her sister.

Soon however, Marianne meets a man who measures up to her ideal: Mr. Willoughby, a new neighbor. So swept away by passion is Marianne that her behavior begins to border on the scandalous. Then Willoughby abandons her; meanwhile, Elinors growing affection for Edward suffers a check when he admits he is secretly engaged to a childhood sweetheart. How each of the sisters reacts to their romantic misfortunes, and the lessons they draw before coming finally to the requisite happy ending forms the heart of the novel. Though Mariannes disregard for social conventions and willingness to consider the world well-lost for love may appeal to modern readers, it is Elinor whom Austen herself most evidently admired; a truly happy marriage, she shows us, exists only where sense and sensibility meet and mix in proper measure.

The author USES desalt material description and highlight the gimmick of mind tracking, it is to strengthen the impulse even in youth pursuit of "the hero’s dream" experience, this is the social form of resistance, but also for proudlly, our lost youth rebellion.

For ambition in social reality when hampering only two choices: retreats or resistance. Those small staff in advance, not all the youth is complaining life tedious withdraws person, they maybe mediocrity comfortably was social forward eliminated.

When I will put pen to write with consciousness, found that when the time already can feel with the time with a psychic reading the original compared. I’m excited to gain against mediocre revelation, moved by those although distortion and still heroic love segments.

寒冬，一杯苦茶。

窗外寒风凛冽，心中暖意盎然。

苦茶，亦苦亦甜。此刻正升腾着淡淡的氤氲，于是茶香和书香便由我独享了。目光停驻在书的封面上：与此书为伍，你不会再孤独;与此书里高尚的人为伍，你会多几分成熟。

《平凡的世界》实则一部现实主义的扛鼎之作。初次读它，你会感到一种伟大感和渺小感的交织，总有一样东西能够深深地打动着你。日子是苦的，但心是甜的，人与人之间更是真真切切的。长子孙少安以宗教式的虔诚和神圣的责任感默默承担生活的重担，甚至不惜为一块白馍与妻子闹翻，他们真正是风雨同舟从最困苦的岁月中熬过来的一家人。人性的美好，人情的美丽和生活的温暖，于物欲横流、亲情淡漠的今天看来更是弥足珍贵。

后来再次品味这杯“清茶”，竟感悟到更深刻的人生哲学：踏踏实实做人，平平凡凡做事。少安、少平兄弟身上的勤奋吃苦、朴实善良、坚忍不拔，不恰恰是中华民族传承千年的优良品格吗?正如儒家所推崇的“恭、宽、信、敏、惠。恭而不悔，宽则得众，信则人信焉，敏则有功，惠则足以使人”。

然现今读来，三度回首，突然发觉在平凡的世界中，人生的意蕴和价值在于平淡中忍受挫折和必要的放弃，在于苦难中的抗争和不解的追求，在于对理想和信念的执著。正如路遥本人所说：“生命从苦难中开始，只有在苦难中才能诞生灵魂的歌声。”假如你执拗地相信生存的意义不过是年轮的一种简单叠加和重复，那么《平凡的世界》会将苦难的美丽镌刻在你心上。

其实，路遥的一生本就铸就了苦难的传奇。他是农民的儿子，于苦难中成长。他是苦难的代言人，而他自身的生活和创作早已超越了苦难，译释了“路遥”式的精神：人生如路，应当乐于苦的生活，甘于苦的奋斗。

对于今日的学子而言，苦难似乎是一个无情的圈套。只要不掀开它的盖头，温柔的夜就能延续下去，动荡的白昼就不会来临。然而，不经一番寒彻骨，哪得梅花扑鼻香?

解读苦难，潸然泪下;品味苦难，又会负重前行。苦尽必甘来!你看，田福军要将改革进行到底，润叶找到了她的幸福，浪子满银迷途知返，我们的少平微笑着迎接他的新生活……

苦茶，不苦。

清华大学校长邱勇曾说过作家路遥用毕生心血写就的《平凡的世界》，展示了一幅宏大的普通人在时代大变革中所走过的既平凡又壮美的人生画卷。

人生的奋斗，理想的追求，在不同的时代都是相似的。

马云说过对他影响最大的人是路遥，是路遥的作品改变了他，让他意识到了放弃原有机会，否则他现在还在蹬三轮车。

这是一本很平凡的书，讲述了平凡人的人生，他是平凡的，也是贴近生活，每一字、每一句写尽朴实。

《平凡的世界》以孙少安和孙少平两兄弟为中心，以整个社会的变迁，思想的转型为背景，通过复杂的矛盾纠葛，刻画了社会各阶层普通人们的形象。

平凡，是生活的本色。我们每一个人，对于这个浩渺的世界来说，都十分渺小、脆弱、微不足道。

这个世界也是平凡的，悲与欢，生与死，穷与富，世事的变更，于历史的长河来说，无非是些平凡事。

对于平凡，我素来是这样以为的，直到与《平凡的世界》相遇。

对于孙少平来说，他是热情、奋进、精力旺盛的。

家庭贫困的他从少就是面对贫困，忍受饥饿、无时无刻不在与之奋斗着，让他痛苦的是，贫苦给他那时开始成长充满敏感的自尊心，带来了看不见的伤害。

因为没有好的吃食，他会不自觉得避开众人的目光，悄悄取走了不体面的黑家伙。但对于这些他没有就此屈服，放弃生活，而是以更加乐观积极地心态投身在生活中。

他在贫穷时仍坚持阅读，靠着自己的聪明能干找到了一份体面的工作，是他告诉我们读书能够带来财富。

正处当代社会的我们，坐在窗明几净的教室里，受着良好的教育，有老师在三尺讲台上传授给我们知识，我们有着良好的学习条件，我们应该更加努力学习，像孙少平一样为了自己的梦想，一步一步完善自己，成为一个有用之才。

对于孙少安，他身为大哥，担负着养家糊口的重任，迫于生计，他不得不从六岁就帮家里干活。

在他十三岁的时候，为了帮父亲撑起这个家，他毅然放弃自己的梦想，放弃上学，对于感情，润叶和少安的感情是深厚的，少安想抛弃一切与润叶在一起，但他最终还是败给了现实，败给了社会地位的悬殊。

但他有胆量胆识，大起大落盖砖厂，失败后仍不气馁，最终让贫穷的家庭富了起来，他的坚持不懈值得我们所学习。

他的砖厂遭遇失败后，面对村里人的冷言冷语，他仍然相信自己会造出好的砖，于是又重新建起新砖厂。

生活中，灾难总会在我们不经意间到来，乱了阵脚往往不是处理问题的最好方式，像孙少安一样，看淡灾难，从头再来，也许我们终究能赢来成功。

伟大的生命本就平凡，平凡却又伟大。

命运后是不如人愿，但往往是无数的痛苦中，在重重的矛盾和艰辛中才使人成熟起来，坚强起来。

路遥用六年的时间写下这部巨作，他永远是矛盾文学奖作品上一颗璀璨的瑰星。

The author pays homage to Hans Christian Andersens compassionate tale with this faithful adaptation. Kids can relate to the ducklings dilemma; part of the growing-up process is pulling away from those around you and developing a strong sense of self. Children have also witnessed or experienced the teasing that is part and parcel of childhood.

This ageless story speaks across generations with its reaffirming message. In this age of instant gratification, Andersens tale reminds readers that some things are worth waiting for and that a pleasure deferred (whether by choice or necessity) is often the sweetest one of all.

Pinkneys descriptive passages resonate with the splendor of natures beauty. The glowing watercolors, filled with intricate details, make each blade of grass visible, and the delicately drawn, nearly transparent mosquitoes are as ethereal as they are in life. The subtle details incorporated into the scenes--a frog catching a passing fly at the pond and a tiny mouse perched by a crate in the old womans cottage--make children take another look.

One day he heard a sound of whirring wings, and up in the air he saw a flock of birds flying high. They were as bright as the snow that had fallen during the night, and their long necks were stretched southward. Oh, if only he could go with them! But what sort of companion could he be to those beautiful beings?

I am too ugly even for a dog to eat, the duckling thought. Jerry Pinkneys poignant text and rich artwork convey the timeless appeal of this tale of hardship and redemption. Anyone who has suffered the sting of ostracism can sympathize with the ugly ducklings plight and will relish the uplifting conclusion.
