I  read the Chinese version of “Camille” a few years ago.

At that time I was deeply moved by the main character Marguerite Gautier.

“Camille” or “The Lady of the Camellias” by Alexandre Dumas, fils, is the story of Marguerite Gautier, a young courtesan, or kept woman, in Paris in the mid 1800s, and how she falls in love with a young man, Armand Duval, and then tries to escape from her questionable past.

She felt used, abused and unloved, until the gentle Armand Duval came into her life and showed her that he loved her as a person and not for what she could do for him.

It must have taken great courage for Marguerite to leave the life she had lived for so long, knowing all along that it was probably too good to be true and would not last indefinitely.

篇1:英语读后感写作技巧

全文共 2507 字

What can I say about Pixar? Amazing?? Perfect?? Got to see this at the Cannes Film Festival in France (went>【扩展阅读篇】

所谓“感”

可以是从书中领悟出来的道理或精湛的思想,可以是受书中的内容启发而引起的思考与联想,可以是因读书而激发的决心和理想,也可以是因读书而引起的对社会上某些丑恶现象的抨击、讽刺。读后感的表达方式灵活多样,基本属于议论范畴,但写法不同于一般议论文,因为它必须是在读后的基础上发感想。要写好有体验、有见解、有感情、有新意的读后感,必须注意以下几点:

首先,要读好原文

“读后感[1]”的“感”是因“读”而引起的。“读”是“感”的基础。走马观花地读,可能连原作讲的什么都没有了解,哪能有“感”?读得肤浅,当然也感得不深。只有读得认真,才能有所感,并感得深刻。如果要读的是议论文,要弄清它的论点(见解和主张),或者批判了什么错误观点,想一想你受到哪些启发,还要弄清论据和结论是什么。如果是记叙文,就要弄清它的主要情节,有几个人物,他们之间是什么关系,以及故事发生在哪年哪月。作品涉及的社会背景,还要弄清楚作品通过记人叙事,揭示了人物什么样的精神品质,反映了什么样的社会现象,表达了作者什么思想感情,作品的哪些章节使人受感动,为什么这样感动等等。

其次,排好感点

只要认真读好原作,一篇文章可以写成读后感的方面很多。如对原文中心感受得深可以写成读后感,对原作其他内容感受得深也可以写成读后感,对个别句子有感受也可以写成读后感。总之,只要是原作品的内容,只要你对它有感受,都可能写成读后感,你需要把你所知道的都表示出来,这样才能写好读后感。

第三、选准感点

一篇文章,可以排出许多感点,但在一篇读后感里只能论述一个中心,切不可面面俱到,所以紧接着便是对这些众多的感点进行筛选比较,找出自己感受最深、角度最新,现实针对性最强、自己写来又觉得顺畅的一个感点,作为读后感的中心,然后加以论证成文。

第四、叙述要简

既然读后感是由读产生感,那么在文章里就要叙述引起“感”的那些事实,有时还要叙述自己联想到的一些事例。一句话,读后感中少不了“叙”。但是它不同于记叙文中“叙”的要求。记叙文中的“叙”讲究具体、形象、生动,而读后感中的“叙”却讲究简单扼要,它不要求“感人”,只要求能引出事理。初学写读后感引述原文,一般毛病是叙述不简要,实际上变成复述了。这主要是因为作者还不能把握所要引述部分的精神、要点,所以才简明不了。简明,不是文字越少越好,简还要明。

第五,联想要注意形式

联想的形式有相同联想(联想的事物之间具有相同性)、相反联想(联想的事物之间具有相反性)、相关联想(联想的事物之间具有相关性)、相承联想(联想的事物之间具有相承性)、相似联想(联想的事物之间具有相似性)等多种。写读后感尤其要注意相同联想与相似联想这两种联想形式的运用。

编辑本段如何写读后感

格式

一、格式和写法

读后感通常有三种写法:一种是缩写内容提纲,一种是写阅读后的体会感想,一种是摘录好的句子和段落。题目可以用《读后感》;还可以用自己的感受(一两个词语)做题目,下一行是——《读有感》,第一行是主标题,第二行是副标题。

二、要选择自己感受最深的东西去写,这是写好读后感的关键。

三、要密切联系实际,这是读后感的重要内容。

四、要处理好“读”与“感”的关系,做到议论,叙述,抒情三结合。

五、叙原文不要过多,要体现出一个“简”字。

六、要审清题目。

写作时,要分辨什么是主要的,什么是次要的,力求做到“读”能抓住重点,“感”能写出体会。

七、要选择材料。

读是写的基础,只有读得认真仔细,才能深入理解文章内容,从而抓住重点,把握文章的思想感情,才能有所感受,有所体会;只有认真读书才能找到读感之间的联系点来,这个点就是文章的中心思想,就是文中点明中心思想的句子。对一篇作品,写体会时不能面面俱到,应写自己读后在思想上、行动上的变化。

八、写读后感应以所读作品的内容简介开头,然后,再写体会。

原文内容往往用3~4句话概括为宜。结尾也大多再回到所读的作品上来。要把重点放在“感”字上,切记要联系自己的生活实际。

九、要符合情理、写出真情实感。

写读后感的注意事项

①写读后感绝不是对原文的抄录或简单地复述,不能脱离原文任意发挥,应以写“体会”为主。

②要写得有真情实感。应是发自内心深处的感受,绝非“检讨书”或“保证书”。

③要写出独特的新鲜感受,力求有新意的见解来吸引读者或感染读者。

④禁止写成流水账!

编辑本段要写关于学习的读后感应该读什么有感

(1)引——围绕感点 引述材料。简述原文有关内容。

(2)概——概括本文的主要内容 ,要简练,而且要把重点写出来。

(3)议——分析材料,提练感点。亮明基本观点。在引出“读”的内容后,要对“读”进行一番评析。既可就事论事对所“引”的内容作一番分析;也可以由现象到本质,由个别到一般的作一番挖掘;对寓意深的材料更要作一番分析,然后水到渠成地“亮”出自己的感点。要选择感受最深的一点,用一个简洁的句子明确表述出来。这样的句子可称为"观点句"。这个观点句表述的,就是这篇文章的中心论点。"观点句"在文中的位置是可以灵活的,可以在篇首,也可以在篇末或篇中。初学写作的同学,最好采用开门见山的方法,把观点写在篇首。

(4) 联——联系实际,纵横拓展。围绕基本观点摆事实讲道理。写读后感最忌的是就事论事和泛泛而谈。就事论事撒不开,感不能深入,文章就过于肤浅。泛泛而谈,往往使读后感缺乏针对性,不能给人以震撼。联,就是要紧密联系实际,既可以由此及彼地联系现实生活中相类似的现象,也可以由古及今联系现实生活中的相反的种种问题。既可以从大处着眼,也可以从小处入手。当然在联系实际分析论证时,还要注意时时回扣或呼应“引”部,使“联”与“引””藕”断而“丝”连这部分就是议论文的本论部分,是对基本观点(即中心论点)的阐述,通过摆事实讲道理证明观点的正确性,使论点更加突出,更有说服力。这个过程应注意的是,所摆事实,所讲道理都必须紧紧围绕基本观点,为基本观点服务。

篇6:汤姆索亚历险记英语读后感带翻译

《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。

"Jane Eyre" is the British modern literature a significant position of the novel, is the representative of the author Charlotte, he has successfully created a dare to struggle, dare to the image of women, the freedom and equality indeed, after I read this book, I was very moved, also deeply such a defiant, brave heroine infection.

The full text can be divided into four stages: at the home of aunt Reed, at the raund school, in Schonfeld, in Saint John.

Jane was born in England, young when she lost her parents, aunt Mrs. Reed in a dozen years spent at home, but Mrs. Reed not good to her, including her children, even the servants dont love her, her uncle John even often insulted her, perhaps this kind of living environment, give it to her the thought brought great restraint, her behavior is limited, she had to fight. When she had the first conflict with her cousin, Jane said without fear, "your boy is really vicious and cruel!" You are like a murderer, you are like a man who abused others, you are like the emperor of Rome. Although the result of the quarrel was obvious, Janes brave performance, the spirit of resistance, shook any reader.

Because Mrs. Reed did not like Jane and sent her to a school at random, but on the contrary, she agreed with Jane. She didnt want to stay at Mrs. Reeds home.

Jane entered the Rao Wald school. In this school, children, including Jane, suffer from cold and hunger, and be beaten, punished, cut, hair and other insults, meals are very bad, and their living environment is not healthy. A cold can not be timely treatment, destined to a half will take a number of trained typhus infection, the childs life, Jane in such a school, witnessed all her hatred of the school, the schools founder, especially hate Mr Hearst, he is a pseudo word Jun, this school is a hell on earth. Jane in this school had her alumni Helen * Burns said: "when we are beaten we should It is without rhyme or reason., fiercely fought back, I am sure we should fight back, fiercely fought back, the lessons learned that US, that he will never dare such a hit. This will further show the reader her indomitable adherence to the resistance. You have to be convinced.

The third part is the core part of the book, Jane a governess at Thornfield house. For Jane to say that this is a very strange place, is Janes first set foot on the society, contact with the outside world, where Jane met Mr. Rochester, although Rochester is older than Jane, who looks not beautiful, but their thoughts have a lot in common, naturally fell in love with Jane he. Jane does not care about Rochesters vast wealth and fame and fortune, she is a real emotion, a friendly and open, she hopes they are equal between. But when she thought Rochester was going to marry Ingram and wanted to leave her, she said angrily, "do you think I will stay and become your decisive person?

Do you think Im an automatic machine, a machine without feelings... Do you think Im poor, low, beautiful, short, and I have no soul and no heart

You are wrong! - my soul is exactly the same as you... And I talk to you now, and not through the custom, customary, not even by physical, human - it is my spirit that addresses your spirit, just as the two had passed through the grave, and we at Gods feet, equal - because we are equal.

I was moved by this passage. Yes, we are equal. Even if the beautiful and attractive miss Ingram has a good reputation, there is a strong hearted family teacher. Jane also challenges the upper class. After a few twists and turns, Jane and Rochester were finally able to walk together.

Jane had been treated unfairly from childhood, but she achieved her career success and happiness by virtue of her fearless, acting and fighting spirit. I threw her away and wished her a better life.

Though the unfair treatment in todays society may be rare, the spirit of resistance is indispensable to all of us. We must learn to resist and fight against it because we are equal.

《摆渡人》是刚读完的一本英国小说。

内容讲述,一个父母离异性格内向的小女孩,独自一人坐火车去见自己的父亲,火车在通过一个隧道时失事,小女孩醒来时发现自己是这场事故的唯一幸存者。她走出隧道口,和远山坡上一直望着她的小男孩一起跨越这个荒原。

事实上,小女孩是这场事故唯一的遇难者,和小男孩相遇的是她的灵魂。

小男孩就是灵魂的摆渡者,将刚刚去世的人的灵魂从荒原摆渡到另一个世界,否则逝者的灵魂将被荒原上的魔鬼吃掉从而进入地狱加入魔鬼的群体。

故事情节颇惊心动魄,在跨越荒原的日子里,小男孩一直保护小女孩两人相依为命,产生了爱情。当小女孩跨越荒原成功摆渡到另一个世界时,因留恋小男孩而找到了回到荒原的办法再次与其相见。

当然,结局也没有让读者失望,二人一起从荒原逆行回到了人间,达到了圆满。

这个故事听起来似乎和平常我们看过的穿越剧,灵异电影相似。但当你仔细品读时,字里行间透露出我们对自己人生态度的思考。

对于死亡 :

若人死了真有灵魂的摆渡者,那么死亡或许没那么可怕,只是离开了一个现实宇宙能看见的世界到达另一个颠沛流离的世界罢了,在那里有逝去的亲人,活着的人早晚有一天也会到来,死亡只是一个空间的跨越罢了。

曾经我读过一篇文章,是一个年岁很大的老者写的,他说若万事抱着一颗好奇的心去对待,或许就能消除恐惧。有人问老者害怕死亡吗?他说曾经很怕,因为他难以想象一个人走在死亡边缘那一刻什么感受。后来他不怕了,他很好奇那一刻的到来,他会是实践者,他要知道答案。

在我的读书生涯里,也有同学的父亲或母亲离世了,伤痛的他们我们无从安慰。一个人在接受亲人的离开时会有种崩溃的感觉。若他们能将亲人的离开看做是空间的跨越,或许心灵的伤痛会有所减轻。

以前在书上看到过这样一句话,我们每个人都来自墙上的一幅画中,只是从静态的平面跨越到动态的立体空间,如果有的人离开了,TA只是回到了那副画里而已。 当我看到这句话的时候,突然觉得特别轻松,因为那一刻开始我觉得世界没有可怕的事情,一切都是我们的心态所为,如果连死亡都不怕了,世界还有更可怕的事情吗?

看过一个访谈节目,专家说这世界有太多永远解不开的秘密。比如,人死了到底有没有灵魂,到底有没有另一个世界的存在,这没有人能亲自实践过再回头告诉世人答案。所以,大可像那位老者一样保持好奇心,亦或相信还有另一个世界的存在。

对于执念:

每个人都是自己心灵的摆渡人,善恶都由自己摆渡,你选择做什么性质的人,行动和意念的支配都由你。消极的情绪,萎靡的状态,自私,凶恶,冲动,没自信等等负面的标签你可以往身上贴,最后形成一个糟糕的人这也是你自己造成的。我们有权摆渡自己的心灵,完美自信,积极向上,友善,宽容,高情商做到这些并不难,关键看你对生活的态度,你执念于什么,你将得到什么。

摆渡人的方向很广,你想要将自己的心灵摆渡到哪个河岸,你要做一个什么样的人,由你决定。

Bunyan once in his book named Pilgrim’s Process described a place named ‘Vanity Fair’ where all kinds of vanity are sold, such as houses, lands, honors, preferments, titles,lusts, pleasures and delights of all sorts. As a matter of fact, we are living in such place today. We gradually become the participants of this fair and loyal followers of these hollow things. Espencially our modern grils’ changing view toward marriage, money and social status. They believe that they could easily live a life like a grand lady without making any efforts if they marry a wealthy man. As female college students, how to stick to our own belief and aviod being assimilated by the complex society, Thackeray’s novel Vanity Fair could give us a good instruction. Through the Rebacca’s attitude towards money, social status and marriage, I realize what is most important thing for a female.

Thackeray described the life of ruling classes of England in the early decades of the 19th century, and attacked the social relationship of bourgeois world by satirizing the individuals in the different strata of the upper society. Rebacca(becky) Sharp is a classic example of the money-grubbing instinct. Her only aspiration in life is to gain wealth and position by any means. Thackeray does not regard Rebacca as an exception. Everyone wishes to gain something in the Vanity Fair and acts almost in the same manner as Rebacca.

As an orphan, Rebacca’s birth can easily win our tears. It is an undenible fact that she is quite an ambitious and clever girl. As far as I am concerned, she could easily live a decent life with her own hand. However, because of the society and the innate deficits in her characteristics, she becomes very sophisticate and even tried to suduce her best friend’s brother so that she could win her place in the upper society and other’s admiration. However, for the people in the upper class, Rebacca’s humble birth cuold never be erased even though she married a rich man. In other’s eye, she was just a coquette who was quite good at suducing rich men. Why not use your own hand to create a bright future and win others’ true respect instead of relying on the man’s shoulder.

Rebacca liveed in a society which is ruled by money, everyone was crazy about money, Rebacca was no exception. She held the dream of living a life of a grand lady, wearing luxurious clothes and shining dimonds. In order to realize her dream, she used all kinds of immoral means to win the love of rich men. Finally, she got married with Rawdon Crawley, a good man who will inherit a large sum of money from her ant. However, the old lady refused because Crawley married Rebacca---a woman of low social status. Rebacca and her husband live a quite luxurious life in Pairs even though they could not make the both ends meet. Finally, Mr.Crawley was put in to prison because of heavy debets, while Rebacca started searching for another rich man who can pay for her luxurious bills. Rebacca betrayed her soul in the process of pursuiting money and gradually forgot the meaning of love.

Marriage is a holy thing in everyone’s life, but if you regard marriage as a good method of gaining money and improving your social status, you will suffer a lot from it. Although you live a decent life and gain other’s admiration,you may never be ture happy because you never know what is love and responsibilty. Rebacca’s marriage is a good example. She took a quite easy attitude towords marriage. Her marriage was just a method which helped her get in to the upper class and live a rich life. Ther is no wonder that she was so cruel to her husband and flirted with another rich man when her husband was in the prison. Here I want to mention another female----Amelia, a girl of simple mind. In Rebacca’s mind she was a fool. At first, she held the same view as Rebacca. Her husband’s death in the war made her become a sorrowful widow. Till one day Rebacca told her that her husband once asked Rebaccato run with him. Amelia was angry and married a man who has taken care of her for several years uncomplainly. Amelia is not a cold hearted women, although her dream of being a grand lady had vanished,but she experienced a life of being truly loved. While for Rebacca, she will forever lived in the Vanity Fair and never has the chance to experience this kind of love. In my eye , Amelia is wiser than her.

Rebacca is a tragic female during that period. Although this novel ended with a happy ending--- Rebacca got marriad with Amelia’s brother and inherited a large sum of money, liveed a grand lady’s life ---who dare to say that Rebacca will stop betraying her soul and keep away from Vanity Fair? I would like to give an advice to her and to the grils in our modern society: please keep always from Vanity, and take a correct attitude towards money, social status and marriage. Money is not every in our life. The improvement of our social status needs our own efforts instead of relying on others. Mrriage is a holly thing in our girls’ life, which requires our responsibility and loyalty. Or we will forever live in a hollow world and the dream of vanity will finally destory us.

《 Notre Dame cathedral》 is one known far and wide romantic faction  strength which Victor Hugo writes . I take advantage of this summer  vacation free time, read this great work.

Notre Dame cathedrals story, actually was one at that time social  epic poem, since brimmed with really.  Friendly.  Beautiful, also the  flow selfish desire and is false.  Regardless of is good beautiful Asmelada ,or has the ugly semblance, Cacimodo with one pure mind, they represent the great amount the  lower level populace which suppresses;  Perhaps is sinister Coloud, he is appears by the theocracy face, all load bearing one kind of  authors ponder.The author in this work, for with the clown, was beautifully friendly  and wickedly does the best annotation, or take above three people as  the example, the rebel Asmelada has the  beautiful semblance and the chaste good mind, as well as pitiful  destiny, but Cacimodo, he withstood destiny deceive  nicely, the innermost feelings is his misery is graver, but Coloud maintained the benighted social rights and interests, he had brutally. Void mind and evil passion.  Good person physique hateful, but the  evil person actually says the appearance shore however, bright set  off, social unfair manifest.

But the article result also is when the opposition society until  criticism:  All beautiful is good all swallows by the might and the  evil, the lower level peoples weak strength in under the king power  rule, in the benighted society, only can be reduced to ashes.  Was  palatial Notre Dame cathedral, how many world tragedy testimony once,  in Hugo the novel, he as if had the life breath, he sheltered Asmelada ,exposed Coloud the crime, regret the  populace attack the magnificent feat which dark actually heroically  devoted...

Another the question which is worth pondering is:  Who is the hero?  Asmelada or Cacimodo?  I  think all is not, but is in the article by the Louis 11 rank smell of  blood suppression rather for sacreficed the populace gate, Asmelada with Cacimodo is not in  them the representative, Asmelada is loves  with the beautiful symbol, Cacimodo not many represents is unfortunate  and the pain.  But they, all suffer a tragic middle ages ignorant evil forces devastate, one each one painful soul is bleeding, flows the  tear.  Merely is Notre Dame cathedrals above engraves " the destiny  "?  They are in middle ages France, despotism sacrificial victim.

The entire story rich tragic color, the plot intense is moving,  exciting.  Author Hugo through " Notre Dame cathedral " this story,  but also disclosed at that time the dark societys essence to the  people.  This fascinating story likes that Ccimodo clocks  sound equally shocks several generation of readers minds.

The little prince is a fairy tales for abult. The book was written to a grown-up.His name is Leon Werth. Thelanguage in this book is facetious.

The little Prince lived in Asteroid B-612, The little Prince’s was delightful, helanghde and he wangtde a sheep. He had flower, The flower was very beautiful, He loved she very much, sheperfumed his planet and lit up hislife. But the flower was very proud and she liked telling lies,So the little prince, clespite all the good will of his love, had soon come to mistrust her. He had taken seriously certain in consequential remarks and had grown very unhappy. So he decide to leave his planet. He went to the vicinity of Asteroids 325.326.327:328.329 and 330, He meet many strangers. The first one was a king. He thought all men are subjeets.The second planet was inhabited by a very wain man to voin man, other people are admirerrs. The next planet was iahabited by a drunkard. The fourth planet belonged to a businessman, He was very busy, The fifth planet was very strange. It was the smallest of all. There was just enough room for a street lamp and a lamplighter. The planet revolves once a minute. The lamplighter must light his lamp and turn it out once every minute. The sixth planet was ten times bigger than the last. It was in habited by an old gentleman who wrote enormous books. The seventh planet was the earth. The earth is not just another planet. It contains one hundered and eleven kings seven thousand geographers nine hundered thousand businessmen saven and ahalf million drun kards three-hundered eleven million vain-men.

It makes me understand. The grow-ups aways need explanations. The gorw-ups like talk about bridge and golt and politics and neckties. Grow-ups like numbers,too. When you tellthem about a new friend,they never ask questions about what really matters. They never ask: What does his voice sound like?’ What games does he like best?’ “Does he collect butterflies?” They ask :“How old is he?” “How many blothers does he have?” “How much money does his father make?”

Read the book, I understand some principle. One sees clearly only with the heart, Anything essential is invisible to the eyes. It’s the time you spent on someone that makes somebody so important.

People have stars, but they aren’t the same. For travelers, the stars are guides. For other people they’re nothing but tiny lights. And for still others, for scholars they’re problems. For businessman, they were gold. But all those stars are silent stars. We, though, we all have stars like nobady else.

"Hamlet" there should be a lot of people read the book. It is a play, is written by a famous British writer Shakespeare, everyone know, to Shakespeare, I think he is to achieve the most mature in theatre arts and the humanities thought, just write down "Hamlet" of the book.

Prince Hamlet is a telling: revenge for dead father and his uncle struggle story. And mentioned the name a Hamlet in the book is not only the name of the protagonist, now life is the people, because of this woman drowned, Shakespeare left a deep impression, so he will put the book in that woman has won the hearts of the prince of the cause of death is written jump river committed suicide. Reading this book, you will feel a little bit sad, after all, this book is a family for the profit of todays society who is willing to torn between brothers, between two brothers who are more willing to the objective reason is because status and woman? This book reflects the image of the Britains political, economic, ideological, cultural, and anti-indian when British social conflict and social environment.

"Very difficult to control domesticthief against tens thousands," this sentence vividly reflect the life images of a book. The book also remind us to pay attention to guard against, dont just know regret after being hurt. As the prince of Denmark unexpectedly in his brother in a defenseless situation to kill it. This highlights the ugliness of human nature, also reflect the social kind of relationship between people naked.

Now, I think the only friendly between people, not to hurt others for the benefit of status, for sure, you will get others trying to harm others not carefree, why dont you open your heart, to treat others with your heart.

《哈姆雷特》这本书应该有很多人看过.它是一部戏剧,是由英国的著名作家莎士比亚所著,我想,大家对莎士比亚都很了解,他是在戏剧艺术和人文思想达到最成熟时,才写下《哈姆雷特》这本书的.

《哈姆雷特》讲述地是一段:王子为了帮死去的父亲报仇与自己的叔叔作斗争的故事.而且书中所提及的一个名字叫哈姆雷特不仅是主人公的名字,现时生活中也存在这个人,因为这个女子的淹死,给莎士比亚留下了深刻的印象,所以他才会把书中那位曾赢得王子的心的女子的死因也写成跳河自尽.读这本书的时候,你会感觉一丝丝的悲凉,毕竟这本书是亲人为牟利而引起的当今的社会有谁愿意兄弟之间反目成仇,更有谁愿意两兄弟之间反目的原因却是因为地位和女人呢?这本书形象的反映了当时英国的政治,经济,思想,文化.也反印当时英国社会的矛盾冲突和社会环境.

"千防万防,家贼难防"这句话形象地反映出书中的人生形象.这本书同时也提醒着我们要注意防范,别在被伤害后才知道后悔.就象文中的丹麦王子竟然在自己兄长处于毫无防备的情况下将其谋害.这突显出人性的丑恶,也反映当时社会那种人与人之间裸露的关系.

如今,我认为人与人之间只有友好相处,不为地位利益而伤害他人,你才会得到他人肯定,处心积虑想害他人的人过的不会无忧无虑的,为何不敞开心扉,用你的真心去待他人。

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。

"Its like a flower.". If you fall in love with a flower growing on a star, then at night you look at the sky and feel sweet and happy, and all the stars seem to be in bloom."

When I first read "Little Prince", I was attracted by his fresh writing style and pure world at high school. Now six years later, read the "Little Prince", can not help but again and again to tears, and palpitation for Princes mind be sad, moved by his pure and persistent love, for his innocence and mourning gradually to disappear. As the author of St. Erik Marcus Paley said in the preface, he put the fairy tale "to Leon? Wirth, when he was a boy"

This is an adult fairy tale, which belongs to the once innocence adults fairy tale, the children can not understand the little prince biting sadness and heavy. They should not be aware of this too early. They should enjoy a good time in a sunny world. It is not so much a fairy tale, but a tragedy. The hero in the fairy tale always looks like snow white or Cinderella, and lives happily. The little prince was sad to see that in the meaning of love after death in the desert.

The plot of the novel is very simple, mainly from the "I" point of view about the princes journey. For a beautiful and fragile rose, the little prince left has been a quiet life of the B-612 small swimming star, he has traveled six planet in the planet, he encountered some he felt very unreasonable than adults, proud as Lucifer king, mad about money merchants, pedantic lamplighter...... So he continued to sigh, "adults world is really strange."." Here the author of the little prince childs eyes, see these peoples empty, blind and foolish, as a adult lonely, no one can follow the situation.

At last he came to earth. Here he met a fox, the fox to he solved that one fragile little rose brought him to love the doubts, make him understand, love means responsibility, compassion means, with love (generalized love) in the life all have meaning. The fox told him: "for you to tame things, you always have the responsibility. Do your duty to your rose." "If you make me tame, my life will be full of sunshine, cheerful. Im going to hear a different kind of footsteps....... You have blond hair, so once you make me tame, it will become the golden wheat will be too wonderful for words! Reminds me of you. I will love the wind through the wheat......" Love makes man understand sorrow and sorrow, and at the same time makes man free from loneliness and make life full of spice and meaning. Just as the little prince said to me, "its like a flower.". If you fall in love with a flower growing on a star, then at night you look at the sky and feel sweet and happy, and all the stars seem to be in bloom." So the author knew that it was no big deal for a sheep to eat a flower in the world, but for the little prince, it was like all the stars were extinguished in an instant."

Finally, the little prince left his planet in 1st anniversary on the occasion, let the poisonous snake him, so he can get rid of the weight of the body, back to the B-612 small swimming star back to his pride and fragile rose side. The little prince was gone, like a little match girl, flying to the world where his grandmother was without cold and hunger, and he ran to his eternal love. The world was left with only the golden wheat fields and the insignificant roses of a garden. And we cry in vain. And we like to be tame fox, to miss the little prince in the golden hair. Because the little prince, I believe that the desert indeed hiding wells, because the little prince he heard voices in the wind in the desert, and drink that beautiful spring.

Recently, I read a book, "father and son", which tells the story of urchin, father, and an innocent son.

The book is a work of Russian critical realism. Among them, what impressed me most is the final chapters: father and son later became famous, they just started, very happy, but later, they discovered that others do what they look like and what is not good, so they feel that they are not the one and only the father and son, because this feeling empty son, the father said: "Daddy, I want to go to heaven." Father to son, son of holding hands, non-stop walking, they finally went to heaven, my father became the moon, the son became a star in the end, the author said that if the kids love the father and the son, not every night looking at the sky!

Family, two simple words, but contains the blood and water deep feeling. However, we still have some people around, do not know how to cherish, parents hard to pull you up, and you do not know how to repay, perhaps parents do not seek repayment, but you have a heart of gratitude do not have it? A warm word, a big hug, a deep kiss...... Sometimes the family to erase the happy memories, raised us so many years, whether rich or poor, parents will cherish you, cherish this God given happiness.

Family affection, friendship...... The two indispensable "love", the two contains happiness "love", in this book reflected, also by the author with affectionate ink painting out, let us open the hands, the precious things in our arms!

Santiago, an old man about sixty years old, fished alone with nothing caught in eighty four days. No one would like to talk to him for his extremely bad luck except a boy who always came to help after the day and finally left to another boat under the pressure of his parents. Ignoring the contempt from the younger fishermen and sympathy from the older, on the morning of the 85th day, the old man started his fishing with determination and rowed his old boat very far in the sea where he believed there would be big fish. Fortunately the old man met with a big fish as he had wished and finally defeated the big Marlin with two days and nights struggle after overcoming great difficulties. But more unfortunately there were many sharks coming after his boat attracted by the smell of the blood of the big Marlin. After death-and-life struggle, when he finally got rid of the sharks coming after the boat, the big Marlin was bare skeleton.

The Old Man and the Sea tells a frustrated experience of the old man who fishes alone in the sea in plain languages. Through the simple lines, a “tough guy” image is shaped and heroism is praised. The whole story starts with a peaceful beginning which is some trivial of life and talking with the boy, and suddenly turns to its climax which is the dangerous fighting with the big fish and sharks alone in the sea, and ends with the old man’s return with the bare skeleton of the big Marlin. Though the boy only appears at the beginning and the ending in the novel, he plays an indispensible role, it is his inspiring and supporting that helps the old man to be “graceful under heavy pressure”.

In the book, the old man prepared his fishing properly and preciously than any other fishermen so that “Then when luck comes you are ready” as the old man thought to himself. In reality, some of us keep complaining that they are born in wrong time or good luck never knocks their doors. In fact, good luck sometimes just comes when they are not ready. Taking Newton for example, if he had not acquired a lot, millions of apples could never make him discovery the gravity. So if we just keep studying as much as we can, good luck will finally find us and a bright future is ahead of us. The old man never gives up hope. When all of people think he is doomed, he still strongly believes that he will get a big fish. And he does. So never giving up hope is very important to us. This reminded me of the sentence in Churchill’s speech “Never give up, never, never, never…”. “But man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated” has always been inspiring me when I counter with some setbacks in my life. Setbacks are inevitable in pursuit of our goals, but we should never be frustrated and should be “graceful under heavy pressure” like the old man. It is his relentless pursuit that contributes to the victory.

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.
