不知道大家有没有读过《小王子》这本书,它是法国作家圣埃克苏佩里创作的最着名的童话书。下面是小编帮大家整理的小王子英语读后感,希望大家喜欢。

篇一:小王子读后感(英语)《Book review of The Little Prince》

The Little Prince is a tale for both children and adults. The Little Prince is the story of a man who crashes his airplane into the desert only to meet a traveling boy from a small planet. The boy inquires about trees and sheep, shares his journeys and various encounters, and then leaves. Yet, reading between the lines, the story offers a much more complex, eiching, satisfying and eye-opening moral: what matters in life is love - and caring about someone or something and maintaining that relationship. The prince loves his rose enough to care for it every night by protecting it with a glass globe and requesting a muzzle for his sheep. He knows that the rose is naive with only four purposeless thorns and, out of his loyalty to her, it is his duty to protect her. Likewise, the narrator loves the prince and feels an obligation to secure his safe journey home.

I read this book as a child and was infected with a sense of awe and a newfound respect for the written word and its power to touch, heal and change perception. For myself, it accomplished two things; it instilled in me a desire to one day become a writer and touch others with my words and like the narrator of the story, and Antoine De Saint-Exupery (whose own plane crash is said to have been the basis for the tale) it instilled within me a hope that one day the Little Prince will return and someone will let me know.

What is the meaning of this tale? Easily saying is that the tale talk about many normal things like morals and principles and values from two different but successive way as children and adults. As the narrator said you can only catch adults’ attention by describing the price of something or saying the number of something. It’s hard to make adults feel lovely by the children’s beautiful describing. That is the reason why many adults believe this tale is a tale for adults.

Being insincere and utilitarian, adults consider useful and kids think sinful. Free spirit and free heart, adults consider absurd and children believe necessary. The amazing point is that these two different beliefs are held by one species--Human. When we were young, we could see anything God want us to see. But after decades, what we could see was only something we need to see.

There are so many good things for children and their imagination. And there are not so many things for adults and their reality. 篇二:小王子英语读后感《A Tale of Love and Life—————— The Little Prince》

"The Little Prince" is a clear book, as clear as the water. It’s writes for adults, teenagers and children. It is a book about life and the lives of the fable. As the book said, the water on the heart is beneficial. And "Little Prince" can make people feel warm and fresh.

The story is about a boy. He lives on a small planet. He is the only person of the planet. He is a lonely prince. Fortunately, a beautiful rose came in his life. They loved each other. But a little argument separated them. He left the planet which he lives, starts traveling. He went to many planets and met many different people. He likes to watch the sunset when he was sad. He found that people wanted happiness, but always pushed away happiness rudely.

At last, he understood how to love each other. Love and life is a very

important thing. He is very regret. He wanted to return to the planet which he lives. But he didn’t know the road. He chose to drank snake venom end his life because he thought it will be able to cast off his bulky body to go back.

Every time, when I read "The Little Prince", I always moved about it. In real life, we often busy in the whole day, such as a fly without soul. The passage of time, childhood away, we grew up and took away a lot of memories, but we also have an oasis in the heart.

Because ‘The Little Prince’ story, we live in quiet, the heart has a hope and love, have touched on the responsibility of the life. 篇三:小王子英文读后感《A Book that Impacted Me Most》

I don’t remember the exact year I first read The Little Prince . Though the golden snake in the book plays a cameo role , I never forget the scene that he flashed kissed gently on the little prince’s ankle. It made me be afraid to reread this book.

Later, I listened a Michael Wong’s song named Fairy-tale Story, the prince in his song is different from the prince in The Little Prince, the prince in the song is the same as Andersen’s tales’ princes, they all have happy endings.

However, I think The Little Prince is a sad story. There is a saying: There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand peoples eyes. Now, let me talk about my reading feeling. This simple story flies over every corner of the world: a pilot (the narrator) who had an accident with his plane and crashed in the Desert of Sahara then he met the little prince from the planet B-612, and the narrator listened little prince’s travel experience of seven planets. On the seven planets, he met a variety of persons. They are the king, the conceited man, the businessman, the tippler, the lamplighter, the geographer and so on.

The Little Prince is a story belongs to adults who have childlike innocence.because children don’t understand the little prince’s deep sadness.This is not so much a fairy tale, as it is a tragedy. This story tells the grow-ups’ world is full of empty,lost and loneliness with kids’ perspective. Among the story, the alcoholic is impressive. He was surrounded by a pile of beer bottles when the little prince saw him, and prince asked him why he is drinking, but he answered he want to forget his shame of drinking. This short planet visit plunged little prince into deep puzzled. He think the grow-ups are certainly very, very odd. In kids eyes, beautiful things must look with heart. But the adults pay more attention on things’ appearance that is just a shell and they don’t believe the eyes are blind and the heart is true.

Through this story, it also made me understand what’s the love---loves more mineral, more dense, more bitter and more weighty than the earths profoundest matter.

When I first read The Little Prince, I can’t understand the mean of love and never to think why should the little prince leave alone since he love his rose so deeply. For years, I reread the story and think about it. The simple true was first love. The little prince didn’t know how to love and It was difficult to make him understand the rose’s heart, so it may lead to misunderstanding and hurts from time to time. He leaved his planet because he can not accept the rose and himself.

This is why the little prince don’t know he have to leave : at that time, he had no idea he was in it. The little prince don’t understand the meaning of tame until he met the fox later. Then he produced the endless yearning for the roses and realized his responsibility.

"Do you want to be domesticated?" For me, this is a profound question. In the book, the little prince met a fox and invited the fox to play with him, but he was refused. The fox told him that he was not tamed. “what does that mean--tame?” little prince asked. The fox answered:” it means to establish ties: to me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me , you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world.”

Gradually the little prince was beginning to understand, because he remembered his rose and he thought his rose had tamed him. So he chose to go back to his planet in the end. But to the fox, the little prince’s farewell will make her sad, but the hurts because of love, she should learn to accept it gradually. I believe there are full of hurts within serious and true love.

As long as the little prince flied to different planets and met a variety of persons can he understand himself and his rose. So I think traveling is a good way to experience life.

篇2:鲁滨逊漂流记的优秀读后感

全文共 1046 字

+ 加入清单

当我郑重地翻过最后一页,读完了这个情节曲折,跌宕起伏的故事之后,我想我真的被它震撼了。这本《鲁滨逊漂流记》的着作是被誉为“英国小说之父“丹尼尔·笛福在59岁时写的。主人公鲁滨逊怀着云游四海的高志远向,越过大西洋和太平洋,在惊心动魄的航海中历经无数险情,后来整条船终于在太平洋上不幸罹难,唯有他一人得以奇迹般地活下来,并只身来到一座荒无人烟的孤岛上。

他从绝望的缝隙中得到了生命的启示,在孤岛上瞬间便几十年。他在孤岛上劳作生息,开拓荒地,圈养牲畜,生产水稻和小麦,年复一年与孤独为伴,克服了种种常人难以克服的困难。他曾与野兽斗智,也曾与吃人肉的野人斗勇。

曾有人说过,“作为一个人,首先应该学会的便是如何生存。”鲁滨孙并未做出什么惊天动地的事情,而是和我们一样在生活着。但这些琐碎的细节却又是鲁滨孙同困境对抗的过程,而这些困境又是几乎每个人都曾体会到的:黑暗,饥饿,恐惧,孤独。鲁滨孙的经历之所以具有传奇性是因为在一个特定的环境中,困境被放大了,对抗困境的时间被拉长了。

如果我是他,当船遇到暴风中失事的时候,我不可能像他那样去接受那重重的困难和波折,因为我没有自信。

如果我是他,当独自一人置身于荒岛之上,我不可能像他那样去面对突如其来的灾难,积极自救,因为我没那个能力。

如果我是他,当看到野人用自己同类开宴会时,我不可能像他那样勇敢的站出来,与他们搏斗,因为我没有那种胆量。

虽然,我是个男生,但也不得不承认自己的软弱与无能,在自己的生活中,很难遇到挫折,即使遇到了,爸爸妈妈总是扶着我,然而幸福中的我根本没意识到家人关爱是一种莫大的快乐看着鲁滨逊的经历,让我可以想象到他在孤岛生活的艰辛,体验到他不屈不挠的冒险精神,更使我重新燃起了对生活的热爱之火。

生活就像是一幅画,有的人画出了春天的生机,夏天的绿荫,秋天的收获,冬天的希望。而有的人却画出了春天的寂寞,夏天的焦躁,秋天的凄凉,冬天的悲哀。画的色彩如何,全取决于作画人本身对生活的态度。鲁滨逊那种对生活不断追求,对交往的向往都源于他那对生活无比热爱崇尚的精神。

如今,我们的生活如此丰富多彩,我们是否有去珍惜,甚至还有人会去轻生,多么愚昧的举动啊。想想鲁滨逊,他为了生存下来,回到正常的社会中去,一直坚持不懈地拼搏着。而对于那些人们,我不知他们领悟到了什么。生活中是存在着千千万万个困难,但也共存这许许多多的精彩与幸福,我们应该去挖掘去体会,那我们才会得到更多。

我崇尚着我的生活,尽管它很普通。我热爱生活,我要用我笨拙的笔去画,画出一张最美的生活!

鲁滨逊漂流记(英文原名:Robinson Crusoe,,直译作鲁宾逊·克鲁索)是一本由丹尼尔·笛福59岁时所著的第一部小说,首次出版于1719年4月25日。这本小说被认为是第一本用英文以日记形式写成的小说,享有英国第一部现实主义长篇小说的头衔。

读《鲁滨逊漂流记》时,我看到了扉页上的“谨以此书奉献给那些时时处处依赖父母、依赖学校的青少年朋友们”这句话,觉得有点不服气,心里嘀咕着:“别小瞧了我们!我倒要看看,你凭什么这么说……”但是我读完后,我曾一直思考着这样一个问题:如果我是鲁滨逊……

如果我是鲁滨逊,当船在暴风雨中失事,我会像他那样不向命运低头而继续远航吗?不,如果可以选择的话,我才不会去接受那充满困难和挫折的生活,因为我没有他那样的坚强。

如果我是鲁滨逊,当独自一人置身于荒岛之上,叫天天不应,叫地地不灵时,我会像他那样不自暴自弃,努力求生吗?不,我不可能像他那样随机应变,积极自救,因为我没有那种能力,我更没那份自信。

如果我是鲁滨逊,当看到食人族用人开宴会时,我会像他那样勇敢地站起来,在仅有一个助手的情况下同他们搏斗吗?不,我宁可躲得远远的,祈祷他们永远不要发现我,因为我没有那种胆量。

我现在不得不承认我与鲁滨逊相比,自己是软弱与无能的。从呱呱坠地到背上书包,父母、学校为我们铺设了成长的道路。我心安理得地在这条平坦的大道上走过了一年又一年,没有挫折,没有风浪,而我还整天抱怨这个,抱怨那个。其实我根本没有品尝过生活中的苦涩,我是幸福的。然而处在幸福中的我根本没有意识到,能吃饱穿暖,背上书包去上学,每天接受家人们的关爱和社会的关注,是一种莫大的幸福。

“一本好书能拯救一个人。”现在我百分之二百相信这句话。这本书向我展示了鲁滨逊自信、自立、自强、永不满足、不甘平庸、勇于创业的精神;告诉我鲁滨逊靠自己的善良、智慧和坚毅,去创建、去开拓。我想我应该拿出所有的精力努力地向他学习,不仅仅是为了社会,为了父母,更是为了我自己的将来。他的那种敢于同恶劣的环境作斗争,热爱生活,热爱生命的精神深深的感动了我。跟鲁滨逊比起来,我们现在的生活环境是多么的丰富多彩,因此,我们更应该要珍爱自己的生命,崇尚我们的生活,为我们的未来画上绚丽的一笔 !

There is no doubt that Pride and Prejudice is well-known, the book that is written by Jane Austen has an influence on the culture.As far as I’m concerned ,the ending of the fiction is wonderful, Elizabeth and Darcy won their happiness, leading a colourful life .

First of all, let’s learn about the author who is Jane Austen .She was unmarried all her life. She was born in a mid-class family and was brought up in a comfortable environment with harmonious surroundings, so there’s not too many conflicts in her sight neither in her novel. In Pride and Prejudice she talked different ideas about love and marriage through different characters.

Jane Austen disclosed mid-class young ladies’ different ideas of marriage and love through describing the different ways in which the Bennet girls doing with their marriage problems,and this undoubtedly shows the writer’s idea about love and marriage: it’s wrong to get married just for property, wealth and status while neither would it be without caring about those elements.Jane Austen just attached great significance to marriage through her novel

by telling people that marriage should be regarded carefully.

Then, let’s get close to story.The details is that Mr. Bennet is an English gentleman with an estate in Hertfordshire. He has five unmarried daughters but no sons while his inheritance must be inherited by a male, so Mrs. Bennet has been keen to seek husband for her daughters with great enthusiasm.

One day the Bennets had a new neighbor called Bingley who was a wealthy bachelor and followed be the target of Mrs. Bennet. At a ball Bingley fell in love with Jane Bennet who’s the oldest daughter of the Bennets. Bingley’s friend Darcy also came to the ball and struck the sights, many girls liked him while he thought all of them couldn’t suit his preference, including Elizabeth. Mr. Darcy always shows others a impression of pride, having found this Elizabeth began to hate Mr. Darcy.

Before long Darcy fell in love with Elizabeth Bennett because of her lovely behavior, while Elizabeth is disgusted by his pride and has a prejudice about him. The official Wickham was welcomed by the villagers, and Elizabeth also took a shine to him. Wickham told someting about darcy,which increased Eli’s prejudice about Mr. Darcy. At

another ball Mr. Darcy invited Elizabeth to dance with him, but Eli refused him. Eli’s elder male cousin Mr. Collin came to Hertfordshire to inherit the Bennetts property by rules, he wanted to marry with one of the Bennets. Having known that Jane was already engaged with Mr. Bingley, he asked Elizabeth to marry him but was seriously rejected. At last he proposed to Charllote who was Eli’s friend.

Mr. Collins was good at flattering and he got the pastorate with the help of Lady Catherine. Once his family was invited to Rosings Garden by Lady Catherine. Elizabeth also went there with Mr. Collin and Charllote. There she met Mr. Darcy who’s Lady Catherine’s nephew.Then Mr. Darcy came to the Collins’ and confessed his love for Elizabeth, of course he was rejected impolitely.

Afterwards Mr. Darcy wrote a letter to Eli in order to remove her misunderstandings of him. Elizabeth’s uncle and aunt were also impressed by Mr. Darcy’s politeness. Gradually Eli’s prejudice of Mr. Darcy disappeared. Eventually they became couple.

In my opinion ,on the one hand,I think Elizabeth has personality ethic which caused her independent idea about love and marriage and in consequence she earned a happy

life. There’re also Eli’s sisters’ love stories served as contrasts to the female subject’s ideal marriage, such as Charlotte and Collin’s life: they do had a luxury life, but there’s no real love between them and this kind of marriage is surely a tragedy of society.On the other hand,Darcy is brave ,he did do his best to pursuit his love.

As a matter of fact,everyone has shortcomings ,after reading the story ,I did realize that we should find our advantages and disadvantages by ourselves.Moreover,it’s necessary for us to try our best to get over shortcomings.I am aware that we ought to get along with others with the same attitude.The right that seeking for happiness is equal for everyone.therefore,we should value the things that we have,and cherish the chances.

This summer I’ve review this kind of tale, which was published in 1940. It’s the world-famous fairy-tale by the French author, Antoine de St-Exupery, The Little Prince. As many other fairy-tales, the outline of The Little Prince is not very complex. “I”, the narrator of the story, is a pilot whose plane has something wrong and lands in the Sahara. In this occasion, the pilot makes the acquaintance of the little prince, a little boy from another planet, the Asteroid B612. The little prince has escaped from his tiny planet, because he has some quarrel with a rose, which grows on his planet. In that case he left his own planet and took an exploration at some neighbor asteroids. On his all-alone journey, the little prince meets different kinds of people, which includes a king, a conceited man, a tippler, a businessman, a lamplighter and a geographer. From these people he gets a conclusion that the grown-ups are very odd. Following the instruction of the geographer, he descends in the Sahara, on the earth. Traveling on the earth, the little prince, who sees a garden of five-thousand roses, is overcome with astonishment and sadness, as he considers his rose is unique in the universe before. At that time a fox appears. The fox, who tell the little prince about the meaning of the word “tame”, becomes his new friend. At the time to say farewell, the fox makes him know that his rose is unique because she is his rose and tamed by him. From that the little prince begins to treasure friendship and be responsible to his rose. At the anniversary day of his descent of the earth, rejecting the pilot’s advice, he goes back to his own planet by bite of a snake. “It’s too far. I can not carry this body with me. It’s too heavy.” he said. He tells his friend, the pilot, he must be responsible for his rose, so he has to go back. At the end the author doesn’t tell us the ending directly.

1719年,英国小说之父——丹尼尔·笛福完成了一部长篇小说《鲁滨逊漂流记》。小说主要讲述了出身于英国之家却向往着海洋冒险的主人公鲁滨逊,在海难中逃生宇荒岛上,通过自己不断的尝试与智慧一次有一次的制作出了桌子椅子,在之后的野人之战中,鲁滨逊意外“获得”了一个仆人“星期五”。28年后鲁滨逊凭借自己的智慧与勇气终于回到了英国。

当读完这本书时,我不由得震撼:也许当我也遇到这种情况时,我可能会惊慌失措,一个劲地跑,却怎么也跑不出这荒岛,便大哭起来。没错,现实生活中,可能会有许多人会像我一样,最后落个一辈子都在荒岛。

现实生活,就像一个大网,有甜有苦有酸:当人们来到甜地时,会很自私的像一辈子都在甜蜜度过;当人们来到苦地时,会恨不得离开这个鬼地方;当人们来到酸地时,会一个劲的喊着酸,却怎么也逃不过酸的折磨。

人类,就是这样。嘴里说着自己是高级动物,是世界上最高贵的。这又何尝不是呢?遇到一点点挫折,就会有轻生的念头。人类啊,如果我们能够学会鲁滨逊那种敢于同恶劣环境作斗争、热爱生活、热爱生命的精神该多好啊!那有何尝不是呢?我们现在的生命与鲁滨逊相比,是美好的、是幸福的、是丰富多彩的,可人们偏就这么自私,将自己的生活弄得凌乱、肮脏就算了,还企图想将别人的生活弄糟,导致世界大乱,无辜的小动物也受到了牵连,被人们狠心的虐杀。

当我们在做这些时,为何不停下来想想:鲁滨逊曾经历看怎么多的困难,他都能够克服。可我们能吗?纵使生活中存在着千千万万个困难,但这也是幸福、快乐的开端,只有勇敢面对,才能够获得这些来自不易的幸福、快乐。

生活本是丰富多彩的,而我们就是其中的一部分,只有去开创、去挖掘、去体会,才能够使得这生活愈来愈美……

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 dont 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 peoples 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 theirkindness 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 thosevermin-to-beto learn from the kind Oliver and regain the nature of goodness.

Read as me " big Malin fish is it enclose light fishing boat move about , is it get mast to twine cable fast to begin, old man right hand hold steel fork high , jump out in a flash , affording to try ones best above water in it, a sound of wail has finished the life of the loud fish, it floats on the surface of water silently ……"When,the I one heart is too fall like pieces of stone not big. I admire that kind of fearing of the old man at all , unremitting spirit very much, though know rivals strength is very strong , but he has not shrunk back at all , meets the difficulty.

But big meat of fish take into big half already, but old man criticize ones own left hand " when the work this when have a rest " humorously also, I am subdued by old mans optimistic spirit too. In life, some losses are unavoidable, we should treat the optimistic attitude , cant worry about petty gain or loss .

Old fishermans spirit that makes great efforts to struggle fearless of danger and difficulty that the novel has been extolled, we should be like him too, can t be satisfied with the current situation , should be positive upwards, it should be unremitting to do anything, it must not give up halfway to meeting difficulty should meet the difficulty. Only in this way, we could obtain greater success and victory .

Through this book, we can see a poor, ugly society, but we also can see an adamant, compassionate little who constantly pursuits of good things in life.

As to us, we live in a much better environment; of course we should cherish our happiness and be strong to face difficulties in life.

篇3:《童年英语读后感

In the sun, I read this thick, "childhood", heart suddenly a strange shame and remorse, think of themselves and the lives of a great disparity in Gorky.

Year-old death of his father, to follow the kind of grandmother came to the grandfathers home. Here, he knows many things, but also see a lot of things, he see the selfish, greedy, brutish, two uncles; simple friend "Little Gypsy"; mean, stingy, greedy, tyrannical, brutal grandfather; every day life in the cruel, stupid, infighting among family members and arguments, and from between good and evil, Alesha ignorant to understand that a number of reasons.

Compared with him together, our childhood is bright and happy; no pain and struggle, has been a carefree life. From this point on it seems we already have far cry on with Alesha, we have a lot, but we still do not know enough I just want luxury this world a better and more want.

Yes ah, we often parents do not cook, mouth open for food, only to parents for their shelter Guzhao, not herself from the "world" battles. Now we have to expect should repent, should not waste anything, and learn to cherish everything we have now will suffice.

From now on test, we must stand up and do not just want to experience difficulties with such a withdrawal, escape, or take a shortcut, should have confidence in ourselves, life always something or someone will give you pain and even despair, but we should be like what how the kind of insisted. In this way, you can again find joy in pain, in despair to find hope.

四岁丧父,跟随慈祥的外祖母来到了外祖父的家中.在这里,他认识了许多东西,也看清了许多东西,他看清了自私自利、贪得无厌、粗野的两位舅舅;朴实的朋友“小茨冈”;吝啬、小气、贪婪、专横、残暴的外祖父;每一天都生活在残忍、愚昧、亲人之间的勾心斗角和争吵,从善良与邪恶之间,阿廖沙懵懂的明白了一些道理.

与他相比起来,我们的童年是灿烂的,幸福的;没有痛苦与斗争,一直无忧无虑地生活着.就从这一点上看来我们就与阿廖沙已经有了天壤之别,我们拥有了许多,但是我们还是不知足,只想奢求人世间更好,更多想要的东西.

是啊,我们经常对父母衣来伸手,饭来张口,只用顾着让父母为自己遮风挡雨,从不用自己独自在“人间”闯荡.现在,我们应该悔过曾经的奢望,应该不再浪费任何东西,学会珍惜现在所拥有的一切便足够了.

从现在考试,我们要自立起来,遇到困难时别只想着这样退缩,逃避或走捷径,应该对自己有信心,人生中总有事或有人会令你痛苦甚至绝望,但我们应该要像一下作者是怎么样坚持的.这样,你就可以再痛苦中寻找快乐,在绝望中寻找希望.是的,黑暗过去,黎明的曙光总会到来,只要你仍然保持对任何事物都有不灭的信心,懂得珍惜拥有的一切,那么你的光明一定会到来,因为你懂得珍惜.

Huckleberry Finn was a great literary work published in 1885 and written by Mark Twain. One of the most positive things about the book would be that the reading level is not very advanced and that it shows us a glimpse of the past. Along with the reading level not being very advanced, the book itself is extremely well thought out, and brings the stories, characters, and imagery to life. One of the negatives is the amount of cursing that takes place throughout the book. This is a negative because it is at a children"s reading level and it does not add any literary value to the book as a piece of history. The ugly but I believe necessary part of the book is the use of the n-word. This is a necessary part of the book because it shows to our children and everyone the meaning behind the word. If anything it makes the reader more understanding of the troubles that the slaves when though and understand the meaning of the word a little more deeply.

This book was great, a masterpiece for the lack of words to describe how entirely wonderful it is. The book was a great classic, the only reason that I did read it is because we have to read a classic for school, however, now that I have read it I realize that it was a great book. I would read this book two or three times, and I do not like reading books again. The book was really able to portray the idea of childhood innocence and foolishness in the book, especially the end. I thought that this book was really an eye opener for people who may think that life is not worth living or maybe derpessed. Because, as you can see, Huck was a young boy who had an alcoholic father who beat him all the time, even kidnapped him after he was adopted by other people. Huck even decided to run away from his father, yet he is still a young, fun loving kid in the end, especially when Tom reveals to him how the whole trip was just a game. The only thing I have to say against the book is that it did seem a little racist with its words, however maybe this is just how they talked in that time period? Overall a great read that I highly reccomend.

Guy de Maupassant(18501893), one of the greatest critical realist writers in the world, is considered as one of three kings of world short story。 Maupassant created six novels and 359 medium forms during his brief lifetime, engendering a momentous effect on the later literature. And it’s his maiden work, Suet Ball that won him world-wide prestige.

In1870, with the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War, the real-based story Suet Ball happened. The heroine of the story is a humble harlot called Suet Ball. With a group of French residents of Rouen, recently occupied by the Prussian army, the 11 travelers are on their way fleeing to Le Havre in a stagecoach. In virtue of the appalling weather, the stagecoach moves rather slowly and has just covered a few miles by midday. Initially, those occupants snub Suet Ball whereas their attitudes alters with the emergence of a basket filled with scrumptious food and she caters for those hungry travelers selflessly.

The carriage doesn’t stop until they blunders into a Prussian-held territory called T?tes. A Prussian officer detains the coach with no definite reasons. In the next two days, the occupants wait with barely concealed impatience and eventually Suet Ball tells that they will be detained perpetually unless she approves of sleeping with the officer. Out of her patriotism, Suet Ball gives him a point-blank refusal. As it should be, those travelers behave furiously to the officer"s arrogance while during the next two days, they exemplify logic and morality in diverse ways to convince Suet Ball of its validity. What a kind-hearted girl! Finally Suet Ball gives up and sacrifices her body for everyone’s freedom.

The next morning, they are permitted to leave. But those "representatives of Virtue" totally neglect Suet Ball, casting scathing sights on the poor young woman while even disdaining talking to her and rejecting sharing their food with her in the same way that she did at the beginning. From their perspectives, Suet Ball turns out to be no more utilizable and should be condemned for her ashamed conduct. As the stagecoach travels deeper into the night, she seethes with rage against those hypocrites, and ultimately weeps for her lost dignity.

In this story, Maupassant highlighted the intense comparison between Suet Ball and the so-called nobles. Rapacity, hypocrisy, sexuality and nobility intertwine in the spotlight,eulogizing the underclass’ patriotism and lampooning the sham of the aristocracy. Maupassant portrays the inhabitants of the stagecoach in varied disparaging ways. The most luminous character belongs to the two nuns. At first they are portrayed as tranquil and subservient to Lord and demonstrate their fiery patriotic desire to dedicate to their motherland rather than a sordid intention like the other passengers: the nuns profess to haste to a military hospital to heal the wounded French soldiers, hence presenting the argument towards instigating Suet Ball to abandon her resistance. How absurd it is! Nuns are supposed to take strait vows and treat others benevolently. They fill Suet Ball"s head with arguments, arguing that it is not morally wrong to sleep with the officer in order to let the travelers leave, and that the longer she waits, the more young French soldiers will die as the nuns are not there to look after them. Superficially, they claim that it is for the good of the country but indeed they’re just taking advantage of her. Suet Ball"s resistance to the officer"s sexual advances again indicate her patriotism. Cruel wars have stripped all the external stuffs. In contrast to all of these is Suet Ball, a prostitute, revealed to be the most fiercely patriotic, virtuous, and morally admirable character, which Maupassant contrasts with the hypocrisy and snobbery of the others.

It is arguably Maupassant’s most famous short story. The carriage constitutes a microcosm of French society as a whole. And the narrative techniques of this story are rather sophisticated and carefully conceived. On balance, a real noble person like Suet Ball can’t be judged by the appearance or the occupation, his/ her moral quality will glitter when confronting the real ordeal. Consequently, I deem that Suet Ball is worth reading lingeringly, savoring every word.
