Read the book "treasure island" over the weekend, let me have deep feeling.

"Treasure island" is a story of treasure. One is called the pirate captain flint bought 700000 pounds worth of treasure in the treasure island, the protagonist of the story Jim accidentally got a treasure map, and some people treasure together. Treasure hunters and pirates launched a life and death struggle, finally, treasure hunters finally found the treasure.

I like the story of Jim, he is smart and brave, for example, after they got on the treasure island, and pirates, one day, Jim out of their camps, in the evening, he walked into the camp of the pirates, pirates leader didnt kill him, because love Jim wanted him to join the pirates, but he keep up, determined not to join the pirates. He that let me admire very much. Also, when sailing captured by pirates, Jim and the ships anchor partition, let the boat with the wind rocking, the pirates to stun, the pirates were shaking all night, and drank the wine, ships were robbed Jim come back the next day.

In the book, and Im impressed with a person, he is silver. Silver looks graceful on the surface, like a gentleman, but hes murderous pirate leader. In the ship as a cook, he, usually, people on board the ship like a family, but, in his convened a bunch of pirates, to treasure island, but decide to deny, and Jim they played out.

Everywhere in our life, but also has a "hypocrite", such as silver we should see through their camouflage, dont be fooled disguise.

周末读了《金银岛》这本书,让我深有感悟。

《金银岛》讲的是一个关于寻宝的故事。一个叫弗林特的海盗船长在金银岛上买了价值70万英镑的宝藏,故事的主人公吉姆偶然得到了一个藏宝图,和一些人一起寻宝。寻宝者和海盗展开了一场生死搏斗,最后,寻宝者终于找到了宝藏。

我最喜欢故事中的吉姆,他聪明机智而且很勇敢,比如说,在他们登上金银岛后,和海盗交战,有一天,吉姆出了他们的营地,到晚上,他却闯入了海盗的营地,海盗头子因为很喜欢吉姆所以没有杀他,想让他加入海盗,他却临危不乱,坚决不加入海盗。他的这一点让我非常敬佩。还有,当帆船被海盗占领,吉姆又把船的锚索隔断,让船随风摇晃,把海盗晃晕,海盗们被晃了一夜,加上喝了酒,第二天船就被吉姆抢了回来。

在书中,还有一个人让我印象深刻,他就是西尔弗。西尔弗表面上看起来举止文雅,像一个绅士,但是,他却是杀人不眨眼的海盗头子。他在船上担任厨师,平时对船上的人就像是亲人一样,但是,在他召集了一帮海盗,到岛上寻宝时,却翻脸不认人,和吉姆他们打的你死我活。

在我们的生活中,也处处有着像西尔弗这样的“伪君子”,我们要识破他们的伪装,不被伪装所蒙骗。

From these people he gets a conclusion that the grown-ups are very odd.Then he enter earth and found thousands of roses alike.The little prince discovers that his rose is not the only ,plenty of her kind are everywhere, but then he realizes that his rose is special because it is she that I have watered; because it is she that I have put under the glass globe; because it is she that I have sheltered behind the screen . Then he fall across the fox.She

teaches the prince It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye

What impresses me the most is the fox’s words.love is a strange stuff.Sometimes we see it but can’t grasp it.Yet, true love may be, to some extent, invisible in surface but may last permanent.Apart from love, others as well.Indeed,sometimes what we consider right turn out to be wrong,what we consider real proves fictitious,what we confused may just turn out to be the truth.The path In searching for truth may long and time-consuming,we should harbour conviction,b will and high hope.No matter what barriade in front of us,we ought to be couragous and face up to the challenge.

The view of Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice is my favorite novel, which impresses me for a long time. It describes a love story mainly between Elisabeth, who I like the best, and a rich and proud man, Darcy.

The story began with the arrival of a crowd of rich men who rent a house near the Bennet. In a ball, Elisabeth gave such a bad impression on Darcys first pride that she refused Darcys first proposal. Darcy was so surprised by Elisabeths refusal that he loved Elisabeth more deeply. And Elisabeths antipathy(厌恶,憎恨) made Darcy realize his shortcomings. He was not angry about Elisabeths censure, but also he changed his previous proud attitude. During Elisabeths travel in Darcys manor(庄园)。 Darcy was very nice to her uncle and aunt, different from previous proud attitude. When one of Elisabeths sisters ran away with Wickham, Darcy helped Elisabeth find her sister and prevent her sister from the loss of reputation, with nobody knowing that it was he who helped the Bennet. So many changes in Darcy eliminated(消除) Elisabeths prejudice. At last it end with their marriage.

Taking the daily life as its material, this story reflected the life and love in a conservative你(保守派) and blocking England town. It reflected the authors view about marriage that it is fault to marry for property, money and status and it is also foolish to take these elements into account. In fact Darcys pride manifested(证明) the gap (间隙,差距)between their statuses(地位)。 Since his pride existed, there is no ideal marriage between Elisabeth and Darcy. From the different attitudes from Darcys two proposals, it reflected the feminine(女性) pursuit of personality independence and right equality, which is a progressive(先进的) character from the image of Elisabeth.

这是我第五次读《小王子》了,第一次和《小王子》相遇是在秋天的那个晚上。就像书上写的那样,你可以说它是一个童话故事,也可以说它不是;你可以说它是一本小说,你也可以说它不是,但对我来说它却是一个真实的故事。

我喜欢看《小王子》不仅是因为它是一本图文并茂的书,最主要的是《小王子》可以让我回到童年,可以让我看清这世上的一些浑浊,更可以洗涤我心灵,让我把一切的烦恼丢掉,全身心地投入到一个黄昏的沙漠中……

书中曾这样写道:“如果你们告诉大人们:‘我看到一座房子,它是由玫瑰色的砖砌成的,房子上有一些绿色的藤萝围绕着,还有一办正在吃草的羊。’那么他们一定想象不出那房子有多漂亮。他们只是无奈耸耸肩说:‘哦。’但是如果对他们说,你看到了一幢价值五百万美金的房子,他们肯定会很羡慕地说:‘哇,多漂亮的房子啊!’大人们就是这样,他们喜欢数字。如果你跟他们说小王子就是住在一颗很小的行星上,他们会说你很幼稚,但是如果你跟他们说,那颗行星叫“B-412”行星,那他们会说:‘哇,那太神奇了’。是啊!一切脱离了数字的东西在大人的眼里都是谎言。

数字,对于生活在这个地球上的人来说,它哪能不重要?

当你是一个三岁大的孩子的时候,如果你能背一首唐诗,那并不稀奇,但如果你能背一千首古诗呢?哇!那你便会戴上“神童”的帽子了。

当你开始走进学堂,成为一名学生时,如果你考试的分数是满分,那么,你的父母会乐坏了,什么要求都会答应,这时你可是他的宝;说不定还把你当佛来供着嘞,但如果那个分数是不及格的甚至更差呢?那你的屁股就等着吃红烧熊掌吧!

当你步入社会,开始工作的时候,业绩又一次成了你成败的关键。

当你到了谈婚论嫁的时候,那银行卡里的数字更是重要。

数字,在我们的生活中无处不在,所以我们必须重视,但是也要适度,过分的重视,数字会变成你或他人甚至社会的负担。

小王子,他是单纯的,所以他总是很快乐,很充实,很满足,时而又带着点忧伤,他是在担心他的玫瑰花,他爱她,却又不知道如何去爱,他只能默默地看着她,细心地呵护着她,静静地听她说每一句话,即使那些是很无聊的话,他也会耐心地把它听完,多么可爱又带点傻气的小王子啊!如果下辈子我可以做一朵玫瑰花,我希望会有一个像你这样的王子来呵护着——如果可以,我会选择在那片沙漠扎根,一直等待你的再次来临……

篇6:百万英镑英语读后感作文

那个家伙端出一副非常刻薄的嘴脸说:“啊,是吗?哼,当然我也料到您没有带零钱。我看像您这样的阔人只会带大票子的。”这可叫我冒火了,于是我就说:“朋友,对一个陌生人可别单凭他的衣帽来判断他的身份吧。这套衣服我买得起,我不过不愿叫你们为难,怕你们换不开一张大钞票罢了。”

这就是《百万英镑》里的精彩片段。当时店员对流浪汉亚当斯蔑视、讥笑后见到百万英镑的惊讶表情,作者描述的入木三分。这里面的幽默故事情节深深的吸引了我。

这本书是美国的马克·吐温经典之作。书中讲述了一个矿山经纪人的办事员因开游艇开的太远,迷失方向,被一艘开往伦敦的双桅帆船救起,并以作为水手来作为路费。抵达伦敦后,他仍旧身无分文。这时,一位年长的绅士,把它叫去,并给他了一封信,便叫他走了。他来到一个小饭店,打开信,他被信里的东西几乎吓晕了!里面有一张一百万元英镑的钞票!就这样,一夜间,他成了家喻户晓的名人,在伦敦,谁都知道他。在一次晚宴上,他爱上了一位名叫波霞·朗汉姆英国姑娘并和她结了婚,事后他才知道,那位给他钱的老绅士就是波霞的义父。在他和波霞的结婚典礼上,老绅士把那张一百万英镑的钞票作为礼物送给了他,他也找到了一份好工作。

这本书讽刺了某些人抵制不住金钱对人的诱惑,认为金钱是万能的,现实中我认为金钱绝对不是万能的,金钱万能论是非常错误的。金钱能买到床铺,却买不到睡眠;金钱能买到食物,却买不到口味;金钱可以买到书本,却买不到知识……金钱的确可以满足人们的虚荣心,但是这些都是虚假的,最真实的还是人坦荡的生活。就像亚当斯一样,他失去了金钱,但是他依然乐观。

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.

暑假期间有一部影片《哪吒之魔童降世》不断被刷新中国动画片的票房纪录,我们全家也禁不住诱惑跑到电影院一探究竟,看看它到底有多火。

先从动画片的主人公说起吧,哪吒被改头换面,打破了以往它在我们心目中可爱的造型,这个小哪吒脸上透露出一股邪恶,长着黑眼圈,走起路来手插裤兜吊儿郎当的,一副目中无人的坏模样。其实在影片中,他斩妖除魔、为民除害、保护弱小还是让我们心里暖暖的。这部电影有笑点也有泪点,描述的是天地孕育出两颗混元珠魔丸和灵丸,天师在魔丸上下了天劫咒,三年后便会死去。

身为魔丸的哪吒注定要是一个悲剧了,他拜太乙真人为师学法术,百姓们都称他为妖怪,见到他就躲起来,哪吒从小就没有朋友,很孤单。他也曾多次想为民除害,可是往往都是好心办了坏事,被老百姓们误解,李靖怕他再惹事生非,索性就把哪吒关了起来并严加看管。另一枚混元珠———灵珠就是敖丙,他也是哪吒唯一的朋友。敖丙被他的父王和师傅申公豹教唆去摧毁陈塘关,是哪吒阻止了这一切,他不但改变自己的命运也改变了整个陈塘关老百姓的命运。

影片的最后,天雷降临,那句:“去你个鸟命,我命由我不由天,是魔是仙我自己说了才算!”感动了在座的每一位,是啊,有些人因为命运的不公而选择轻生,或者,接受不了现实的人活不出任何光彩。但也有些人,对命运顽抗。比如谈迁,编写的《国榷》被小偷盗走,下落不明,这是他呕心沥血20多年才写出来的,不过谈迁不认命,不抱怨,马上从困境中走了出来,励志要重新撰写,最终著成了一篇更精彩的《国榷》。我们就要学习这种精神,不向命运低头,不服输,不认输。

你问我命是什么,我不知道,但我知道不认命,就是哪吒的命。

It had no worries of life in America south, was a family servant secretly sold to Alaska as a sled dog, after witnessing a sight, it begins to follow the "stick" and "teeth" principle, and gradually become a good sled dog. Later, he met a man named Thornton it really like. They go to the eastern treasure hunt, Thornton was killed by indians. In revenge for Thornton, Buck returned to nature.

故事中巴克的形象是强者的象征,在严酷的生存环境中有着坚强的意志、顽强的生存力量和机敏的生存智慧。它来到新的环境中后并不愿意受其他强者的控制,而是努力适应,不断斗争,成为了新的强者,体现出了“适者生存”这条法则。它虽然是条狗,但如果换作我们,也未必能在那样残酷的环境中生存下来,更不可能成为那里的强者。所以,我们在现实中也该像巴克那样顽强、不屈、不放弃希望,毕竟,在未来的社会中,我们也可能会经历挫折、翻天覆地的变化,而如果我们能有巴克那样的精神,才可能使我们成功。

The story of Bucks image is a symbol of a strong survival wisdom, strong will, tenacious survival strength and agility in the harsh living environment. It came to control the new environment after is not willing to suffer other strong, but efforts to adapt to, continue to struggle, become a new strong, reflects the "survival of the fittest" this rule. Although it is a dog, but if for the rest of us, may not be able to survive in such cruel environment down there, are less likely to become strong. So, in reality we should like buck as tenacious, unyielding, dont give up hope, after all, in the future society, we may also experience changes in frustration, turn the world upside down, and if we can have the buck that spirit, it may lead us to success.

而现在,如果我们遇到一点挫折就被打倒,那么就还不如一条狗,也更不会在将来有大的作为。

Now, if we encounter a little frustration was down, so is also not a dog, nor as large in the future.

英语教学方法策略读后感

为了提高自身的英语教学质量和效率,我从学校图书馆借来《英语教学方法与策略》一书,利用业余时间认真地进行了研读,获得了不少教益。

这本书由鲁子问和康淑敏两位专家编写,由华东师范大学出版社出版,可以作为英语教学设计方向研究生教材,也可以作为中小学英语教师设计培训教材使用。我认为在英语学科骨干教师研修班接受培训期间读读这样一本书是再合适不过的。这本书介绍了教学方法与教学策略的相同与差异,提出了教学方法与策略的选择与整合的方法,介绍了英语教学方法的实践操作方法,包括情景教学法、交际教学法、任务教学法和自主学习教学,然后分析了英语教学过程的策略及实践操作方法,并从英语知识教学的策略及实践操作方法、英语技能教学的策略及时间操作方法两方面对英语教学方法与策略的行动研究提供了系统的指导。

编者用六章分别讲了教学方法与教学策略、英语教学方法的实践操作、英语教学过程的策略及实践操作、英语知识教学的策略及实践操作、英语技能教学的策略及实践操作和英语教学方法与策略的行动研究。

该书对相关理论进行了系统、简要的讲解,主要的内容是对英语教学实践的指导与分析。每一节都采用“准备-学习-实践”三部式结构,不仅讲解理论,而且注重教学实践。在每一节的理论讲解之后,都设计了“实践分析”专栏,以强化理论与实践的直接联系。在看每一节的时候,我都是跟着该书的编排形式在不断地调整自己的思维。在准备环节,编者会给出一个案例,让读者思考,遇到此类教学问题该如何解决,此时,我的大脑就会回忆我在教学中有没有遇到过,我又是如何解决的,然后思考怎样才能解决得更好;在学习环节,编者给我们提供了最系统的理论知识,此时我就很认真地研读每一条理论,认真理解每一个概念,为今后的教学活动积累必要的理论知识;在实践部分,我仔细地看了每个实践活动,对于一些比较有价值的活动自己在教学中也尝试着使用。

本书的优点是:1)语言浅显易懂。不像平常的教育着作,带着很多专业术语。2)内容很实用。书中不但简要地介绍教育理论,还举出大量的课堂活动例子,很适合各个层次的外语教师参考。3)描述很细致。书中谈到英语教学中很多细节的东西。4)编排符合读者习惯,发人深思。书中每一章节都会在适当的位置上安排一个文本框,给出一些名词解释或让读者讨论或思考一个问题。如:请讨论,您如何看待Practice makes perfect.它与数量原则有什么关系?训练中如何把握训练的量?

这本书让我羞愧于自己在教学理论和策略方面知识的匮乏,更让我明白英语教学的成功应体现在“培养学习者在真实的情景中有效使用英语的能力”我是一个率性而为的人,很多时候只是随心而教学,不会严格遵循某一教学模式。所以一直以来,教学成绩都没有取得重大突破,而我本人也一直为此烦恼,这本书教会我许多有理论支持的教学方法。如:语法翻译法、直接教学法、认知法、自然法、社团教学法、沉默教学法、全身反应法、暗示教学法。从书中我悟到了想成为一名优秀的教师必须充分认识到“教必有法”的原则性和“教务定法”的灵活性特点之间的统一关系。教师不应拘于一法一策,囿于一方一圆,而是要因地制宜,因材施教,将各类方法加以组合和调配,在吸收、借鉴已有教学方法的基础上,创造性地发挥,逐步形成富有教师个人特色的教学风格。在教学实践中,我根据教学环境、教学目标、教学内容、学生的需求和自身的教学风格适丰富了一下教学方法和策略,收到了一定的效果。

我最受启发的是书中的如下观点:呈现学习任务时,应当向学习者描述任务中的问题发生的物理背景、组织和社会文化背景。并且,问题的呈现必然是有趣的或吸引人的,目的是引导学习者的积极参与。让学习者体现到伸手可及的成功;教学活动的设置应考虑学习者的兴趣,需要和情感;老师可以和学习者商量课堂活动的内容并建议学习者把他们感兴趣的学习材料带回班上。让我陷入长久的沉思的是这个观点:“personalities and relationships are important for motivation”即:教师的性格及其与学习者之间的良好关系在调动学习者学习方面很重要。文中提到“即使我们不能完全改变自己去满足不同学习者的需要,但我们可以主动了解学习者感兴趣的话题,如:流行音乐,年轻人喜欢的电影,新车,科技的发展等。看到这里,对于学生为什么没有积极参与我自以为精心准备的课堂活动,我似乎找到了答案:设计活动时,我只是从教材内容和个人兴趣出发。当学生冷淡对待活动时,我只会埋怨大的学习环境不好,埋怨学生不配合,极少去思考是否学生对内容感兴趣,是否活动的难度适合学生,课堂指令是否清晰等因素。文中还指出:即使学生会使用老师准备好的语言结构,也明确活动的目的,但如果他们缺乏信心,也不会积极参与…所以,对学生及时得体的鼓励相当重要,借用李阳老师的话就是鼓励学生 “Enjoy losing face. Enjoy making mistakes ”总之,要踏上英语教学的成功之路,进行方方面面的准备工作是必要的,

对于以后的教学,我将努力改变陈旧的教学理念,尝试新的教学模式,自始至终把学生放在中心位置:把激发学生的学习热情放在首位,发挥交际教学的优势。是时候改变沉闷的课堂气氛,还学生一个愉快的学习环境了!是时候彻底解放学生,还学生一个可以自主学习的空间了!

其实,单纯阅读只是一个浅层理解词句的过程,我们可能在阅读中很感动,很受启发,但是,几个星期或几个月后,可能我们的思维又回复原状;若把我们的所思所想写下来,联系我们的教学或生活实际加以变通,可能会更长久地影响我们;而如果把我们学到的经验及时应用在教学中或生活中,我们的学生或我们自己则会终身受益,这才是阅读的目的。“热爱阅读、高效阅读、创新阅读”让我们互勉!

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。

篇19:小王子读后感高一

全文共 1106 字

+ 加入清单

这是一个早已被人遗忘的词语,像我所要讲述的故事那样并没有什么规定的意义。

爱上小王子的狐狸这样解释这个词,驯养即建立关系。从此狐狸不再是普通的狐狸,王子也不再是普通的王子。他们互相需要,依依不舍是对方的唯一。幸福的感觉就是王子说他四点钟会来看狐狸,于是狐狸从三点就开始感到愉快,时间的流逝会令它感到越来越兴奋,直到他看见王子的金发从麦田的另一边渐渐地离它越来越近。

可是狐狸忽略了另一种情况,王子可能会去见他中意的一位公主,而并非一只长着要用在婚礼上献给新娘裘皮的的动物。王子或许成功地驯养了狐狸却没有与它建立它所期盼的关系,或者说没有驯养爱情。

不过我们像所有的成年人一样并不相信这个故事,女人们教育她们的女儿说世界上并没有王子只有王____和装成王子王____。而她们的女儿也不是公主,只是和她们一样的小巫婆和自以为是公主的巫婆。

当我们想要了解这个世界的时候,我们开始拿周围的人做实验,我们会问不同的人同样的问题,或是与不同的人玩相同的游戏,然后根据他们做出的回答或反应的差异判断这个人是不是我们的同类,思考应对这些自己以外的人的态度。后来这一光荣的历程变成了一种职业——心理医生。这使长大变得很不真实,商业气息十足。于是我们背离了成熟的轨迹,最终被周围的人送去见这些自认为可以帮助我们长大的家伙。

当然了长大并不完全是好事或不好的事,它像所有的事情一样具有两面性。当我们抛开了自认为惨淡的童年回忆时或许有许多孩子正经历着这些,而这很大程度上是由我们造成的。在孩子们眼里我们和其他大人并没有什么不同。我们总是在抱怨对生活的不满,却忘记了生活和工作本身就是一种享受,就如同抚养一个孩子,我们为他操心、劳累也因而得到一个难忘的过程。狐狸不会向王子抱怨他驯养它的目的,因为它得到了一份去爱别人的感受。或许这份感受并不完全是美好的,但是它一定是难忘的。

爱情原本就是很难被驯服的,虽然在很多时候我们并不知道要将它玩弄在手心需要付出怎样的代价。它就像一个炽热的火球,你把它捧上手心或许可以温暖你冰冷开裂的双手,但同时你也要做好被它灼伤的准备。即使这样仍有很人多妄想能够将它制服,将它训练成如普通宠物般听话乖巧的玩物,好让他们得到温暖的同时又不受伤害。但是人们始终忘却了一点这种情愫原本就不是普通之物,宠物或许可以通过世世代代的驯养让其变得温顺乖巧,而爱情素来就是一匹奔驰在心田中的野马,如若硬要为它套上绳索,拉紧缰绳,那它必定会拼命挣扎,使你遍体鳞伤.

其实在爱情面前我们同样都是长不大的孩子,不分年岁,不论阅历。我们不应该奢望能从爱情中得到什么,更不应向它索要什么,如果你真的想驯养点什么来打发空闲的时光,那么什么都好,除了爱情

篇20:万圣节手抄报英语内容Halloween

全文共 4433 字

+ 加入清单

The word itself, "Halloween," actually has its origins in the Catholic Church. It comes from a contracted corruption of All Hallows Eve. November 1, "All Hollows Day" (or "All Saints Day"), is a Catholic day of observance in honor of saints. But, in the 5th century BC, in Celtic Ireland, summer officially ended on October 31. The holiday was called Samhain (sow-en), the Celtic New year.

One story says that, on that day, the disembodied spirits of all those who had died throughout the preceding year would come back in search of living bodies to possess for the next year. It was believed to be their only hope for the afterlife. The Celts believed all laws of space and time were suspended during this time, allowing the spirit world to intermingle with the living.

Naturally, the still-living did not want to be possessed. So on the night of October 31, villagers would extinguish the fires in their homes, to make them cold and undesirable. They would then dress up in all manner of ghoulish costumes and noisily paraded around the neighborhood, being as destructive as possible in order to frighten away spirits looking for bodies to possess.

Probably a better explanation of why the Celts extinguished their fires was not to discourage spirit possession, but so that all the Celtic tribes could relight their fires from a common source, the Druidic fire that was kept burning in the Middle of Ireland, at Usinach.

Some accounts tell of how the Celts would burn someone at the stake who was thought to have already been possessed, as sort of a lesson to the spirits. Other accounts of Celtic history debunk these stories as myth.

The Romans adopted the Celtic practices as their own. But in the first century AD, Samhain was assimilated into celebrations of some of the other Roman traditions that took place in October, such as their day to honor Pomona, the Roman goddess of fruit and trees. The symbol of Pomona is the apple, which might explain the origin of our modern tradition of bobbing for apples on Halloween.

The thrust of the practices also changed over time to become more ritualized. As belief in spirit possession waned, the practice of dressing up like hobgoblins, ghosts, and witches took on a more ceremonial role.

The custom of Halloween was brought to America in the 1840s by Irish immigrants fleeing their countrys potato famine. At that time, the favorite pranks in New England included tipping over outhouses and unhinging fence gates.

The custom of trick-or-treating is thought to have originated not with the Irish Celts, but with a ninth-century European custom called souling. On November 2, All Souls Day, early Christians would walk from village to village begging for "soul cakes," made out of square pieces of bread with currants. The more soul cakes the beggars would receive, the more prayers they would promise to say on behalf of the dead relatives of the donors. At the time, it was believed that the dead remained in limbo for a time after death, and that prayer, even by strangers, could expedite a souls passage to heaven.

The Jack-o-lantern custom probably comes from Irish folklore. As the tale is told, a man named Jack, who was notorious as a drunkard and trickster, tricked Satan into climbing a tree. Jack then carved an image of a cross in the trees trunk, trapping the devil up the tree. Jack made a deal with the devil that, if he would never tempt him again, he would promise to let him down the tree.

According to the folk tale, after Jack died, he was denied entrance to Heaven because of his evil ways, but he was also denied access to Hell because he had tricked the devil. Instead, the devil gave him a single ember to light his way through the frigid darkness. The ember was placed inside a hollowed-out turnip to keep it glowing longer.

The Irish used turnips as their "Jacks lanterns" originally. But when the immigrants came to America, they found that pumpkins were far more plentiful than turnips. So the Jack-O-Lantern in America was a hollowed-out pumpkin, lit with an ember.

So, although some cults may have adopted Halloween as their favorite "holiday," the day itself did not grow out of evil practices. It grew out of the rituals of Celts celebrating a new year, and out of Medieval prayer rituals of Europeans. And today, even many churches have Halloween parties or pumpkin carving events for the kids. After all, the day itself is only as evil as one cares to make it.
