+ 加入清单“画虎画皮难画骨,知人知面不知心”这句谚语想必大家都耳熟能详了吧,但能真正做到知心的人少之又少。
《傲慢与偏见》这部世界著作格调轻松诙谐,讲述了女主人公伊丽莎白在舞会上认识了达西,但是耳闻他为人傲慢,一直对他心生排斥,存在着偏见,经历了一番周折后,伊丽莎白解除了对达西的偏见,达西也放下了傲慢,有情人终成眷属。这部小说生动地反映了18世纪末到19世纪初处于保守和闭塞状态下的英国乡镇生活和世态人情。
书中威克姆英俊潇洒,谈吐不凡,看上去就像是一位谦谦君子,实际上却不过是品质卑劣之徒。达西起初寡言少语,性格孤僻,别人难以接近,让人感觉此人十分傲慢,因此口碑并不好,但他本质上却是一位善良、品质高贵之人。
“傲慢让别人无法来爱我,偏见让我无法去爱别人。”起初,伊丽莎白被外表所蒙蔽,一直活在自己的偏见之下,而忽略思考事实的真相,渐渐地对威克姆这种人产生了好感,反而对达西厌恶至极!随着小说情节的层层推进,经过达西的解释和伊丽莎白自己的判断,真相才渐渐浮出水面,男女主人公才最终找到了幸福的归宿。
然而在现实生活中,不只是傲慢和偏见,还有着各种各样的因素干扰着我们的判断,影响着我们的抉择,让我们无法真正地看透人的心灵。日久见人心,时间就像大浪淘沙,能够分辨人的心灵的美与丑,而心灵美是岁月抹不去的美丽,真正的高尚者才能经得起时间的磨砺,正如希腊学者所说“品行是一个人的守护神”,真正的高尚者无时无刻不在守护着自己的高尚品德。
当然,知晓别人真正的内心只是有助于我们去更好地了解他人,更重要的在于塑造我们自己的高尚心灵,使自己的精神世界更加饱满,而不能只浮于表面,要每时每刻渗透到微小的生活细节当中。“勿以善小而不为”,我们平时的一言一行都是我们心灵是否美好的体现。无论是在公交车上遵守公共秩序、主动让座,还是将垃圾随手捡起,还是尽自己最大的努力去帮助需要帮助的人.….….都体现了我们在日常生活中的素质修养。
书中所描述的人物形象以及所表达的思想,以小见大,提醒了我们不能以一个人的外在印象就随意地去评价一个人的内在,我们应该看透心灵,塑造心灵。看透心灵是认识别人,塑造心灵则是提高我们的自身的修养。看透心灵助我们认识世间的种种现象,帮助我们步入社会,更好地了解他人,塑造心灵则是助我们被这个社会所接纳,更好地完善自己的精神世界。
通过这部著作让我们看透傲慢与偏见,抛弃傲慢与偏见,在认识别人的同时锻炼自我,提升自身修养,努力做一位心灵高尚,品学兼优的人。

篇1:《一千零一夜》小说读后感
全文共 522 字
+ 加入清单这几天,我看了一本书名叫《一千零一夜》,讲了许多神话故事,现在我就讲一两篇吧。
第一篇是这样的,有一天一个名叫阿里巴巴的人上山赶牛,看到了强盗,于是跟了进去,然后发现了宝藏,后来哥哥问他哪里有那么多的宝藏,阿里巴巴告诉了他,接着哥哥在去取宝藏的时侯被杀了,阿里巴巴为了给哥哥报仇,在路上碰到了一位小姑娘,最后在小姑娘的带领下杀死了强盗,从此,阿里巴巴过着富有的生活。这个故事告诉我们不要象阿里巴巴的哥哥一样贪财,要有一个平常心。
另一篇故事是这样的,古时侯,有三个人到皇宫里娶三个公主,第一个与第二个都通过了,到第三个的时侯,国王问他带的这是什么,那个人说:“是乌木马,可以骑着它随便到哪里。”国王叫着他的儿子试试,还真的到了另一个地方,在那里王子认识了一位公主,他们相互相爱,可不久公主被人抢走了,王子为了找公主,走啊走啊,终于找到了公主,并用了机智救出了公主,这个故事告诉了我们,要勇敢机智、聪明,爱上一个人,就应该在一起幸福的生活。
在现实生活中,我们一定也要那么机智勇敢,有错就改,不要为了玩,而忘记了做作业,整天无所事事,成天不学习,不做事,在遇到困难时不退缩,要勇敢地面对现实,敢于挑战困难。
怎么样,想知道更多的内容,那就拿起这本书看吧。
篇2:小说《围城》读后感心得体会
全文共 626 字
+ 加入清单钱钟书是《围城》这部书的作者,是一名学者、小说家。江苏无锡人,字默存,号槐聚。《围城》是他所著的一本长篇小说,如果说它是爱情小说或者是知识分子的心理小说,那么就不值一提了。
《围城》是在上海沦陷时,耗时两年时间完成的,其中还有他的妻子杨绛先生帮助对原文进行注释。《围城》这部书的内容尽管读起来好像真有其事,实有其人,但实际上只是一部虚构小说。
就像90版《围城》电视剧的封面上所写到的“困在城里的人想逃出来,站在城外的人想冲进去,婚姻也罢,事业也罢,人生的欲望却大都如此”。
这部书以主人公方鸿渐的视角去讲述这座城市的故事。故事发生在1920到1940年间,方鸿渐是个乡绅家庭的青年,他的未婚妻周氏提前病逝。方鸿渐在欧洲留学时收到来信,后来没过多久就回国了,他在回国的船上遇到了鲍小姐,并爱上了她,结果却被鲍小姐的感情所欺骗了,后来方鸿渐遇到了大学同学苏文纨,故事便由此开始。
纵观整本书,有人认为作者笔下的方鸿渐其实就是钱钟书本人。因为方鸿渐的经历与作者的经历相似度很高,例如他们都是无锡人,他们都有着欧洲的留学经历等等。但帮助钱钟书先生撰写注释的杨绛却认为方鸿渐的原型不是作者本人,他是一个合成的虚拟人物。
《围城》这本书中的角色不是按照特色人物作为原型来写的,而是为读者展现了当时的社会状况,可以说文中的人物分别指代了一类人。作者可以根据亲身经历,以及其他人的经历去构造小说中的主人公的形象。这些赋予主人公的经历都是为了使这个角色达到作者心目中的“完美”。

+ 加入清单Read "the old man and the sea" this article, I could not help secretly for Hemingways masterpiece. Image lifelike the story describes how an old man with a firm belief deftly will be a big fish to his humble, and how to get rid of "invasion of the enemy" -- a shark. Although he failed to bring the whole fish back, but his spirit is worth our learning: people must have the self-confidence, he will say to yourself "I can do it!" . You think about it, if the old man caught a fish, 7, 8 times more than himself he saw was afraid, put the fish, he can put the fish back to Hong Kong? No, no, he relies on ordinary people to accept such determination, to catch the big fish.
In our class, there is learning of poor students, they are lack of confidence to oneself, plus others ironic, then, they have no interest in learning, thus make grades decline gradually, falling...
Now the society developed, if can clone the self-confidence, that I must have a clone, send it to lack of confidence friend!
读了《老人与海》这篇文章,我不禁暗暗为海明威的巨作叫好。这个故事形象逼真的描写了一个老人是怎样靠着坚定的信念灵巧地将一头大鱼捕到自己那简陋的船上,又是怎样赶走“来犯之敌”――鲨鱼。虽然他没能将整条鱼运回去,但他的精神值得我们学习:人要有自信心,遇事要对自己说“我能行!”。大家想一想,如果这位老人钓到了一条比自己大上7,8倍的鱼,他见了就害怕,把鱼放了,那他能将鱼运回来为自己争光吗?不,不能,他正是靠着这样常人难以接受决心,才能捕到这条大鱼。
在我们班上,有学习差的同学,他们就是对自己信心不足,再加上旁人的讽刺,这时,他们对学习毫无兴趣,从而使学习成绩逐步下降,下降……
现在的社会发达了,如果能克隆自信心的话,那我一定克隆一份,将它送给信心不足的朋友!
篇4:茶花女英文读后感
全文共 3614 字
+ 加入清单If a woman has even a tiny sense of dignity, she must shoulder any number of sacrifices rather than have her love varnished with venal character by asking for money from her lover. Extravagances, luxury as well as all other empery pleasures are valuelein front of love. As long as you love me, I ask for nothing else.
-------Marguerite(La Dame Aux Camellias)
Whenever I lingered over the magnificant story, I cannot help deeply touched by the bitterly sweet love, which struck the world as gentle as an April shower, as pure as a blowing snow, as heady as an old wine. It condensed a paradise into a kept woman’s heart, which caught and held us transfixed against prejudice in mind and greed in nature, , and provided a journey that brought home to us a comprehensive understanding of love.
Marguerite, as a kept woman,did not undergo the usual penalty of confronting wrinkles appeared under her eyes, the first death of a courtesans, but was endowed enough fortune to enjoy an unselfish and gorgeous love during her ephemeral life, witch came as a wonderful oasis to lead supply a new prospect in a disparate desert, appeared as a miracle medication to heal her wound in the sinful life, figured as a brisk spring to refresh and revitalize her lonely heart, and emerged as a great beacon of courage to kill all her bad habits in the past and make a firm determination to seek for a peaceful but fantastic life with her loved one.
Lingering between the words, we could completely feel how kind and dignified she was. She refused Armond although she knew he was really loved her with his soul. because of her gloomy despair of life, she did not turn up in his life as a figure who was sad, ill, gay with a giant sadder than grief, besides witch, who spit blood and spent a hundred thousand francs in a year. Touching this words, how can we avoid our zealous sympathy for her? She bickered with the marquis and drove him away from her family, because she hated and refused to be treated as merchandise. Touching her deeds, how could we deny our high respect for her? At last, she renounced all her hope and life just because another woman’s name. What she e although you may get hurt, but it is the only way you can live absolutely. But what she experienced, what she faced and what she did made her a real sublime angle and an eternal ideal woman in people’ heart.
However, no matter what devout wish, no matter what gorgeous love, or no matter what strong struggle, the society was so stone stubborn that it would never show any mercy for a kept woman. Just as Armond said, when God allow a kept woman to accept a real love, it is indeed a grant comfort, but also remorselepunishment, for the man holds the cruel authority to say to his lover, “ Your love is just a kind of commodity”, though the woman had devoted all her heart and spirits to her loves. It cannot denied that it was Marguerite’s joyous fortune to have Armond in her poor destiny, but at the same time, it is also have to be admitted that what a hopeletorture she tolerated and what a disappointed suffering she endured at the last part of her life. It was really too much to her. We even cannot tell what kind our feeling soared inside our bosom, but just happy with her, sad with her, waiting with her, wishing with her, and disappointed with her……
shall we criticize Armond for his foolish and brute deed to Marguerite as he got the same hurt by his horrible vengeance? Shall we condemn Armond, father for his selfish monologue which destroys the kind woman’s dream? Shall we judge the motionlemerchant and policemen’s actions before the dying woman?
篇5:老人与海小说读后感
全文共 787 字
+ 加入清单阴暗的天空,波涛起伏的海面,一只小船摇摇晃晃的行驶着,一个老人站在船上,孤独地眺望着远方……
这是我和上书后久久不能忘怀的场景。书名为《老人与海》,是一部寓意深远的古典悲剧式的小说,也一部英雄主义的交响曲。
海明威说:“我试图描写一个真正的老人,一个真正的孩子,真正的大海,一条真正的鱼和许多真正的鲨鱼。然而,如果我能写得足够逼真的话,他们也能代表许多其他的事物。”故事描写的老人圣地亚哥是个倒霉的人,84天没捕到鱼,而别的渔夫都把他看做失败者。但这似乎预示着一场战斗的开始,果然,就在第85天,他真的发现了一条1500磅大马哈鱼,明知对方力量比他强,还是决心战斗到底。他对大鱼说:“我跟你奉陪到底!”,最后终获胜利。在老人辛辛苦苦抓到了鱼之后,考验却并没有结束。鱼因为又大又长,他只好将鱼绑在船的一边。回航时,大鱼的血腥味引来了鲨鱼一次又一次的袭击。于是,他用尽一切个人手段来反击。鱼叉被鲨鱼带走了,他把小刀绑在桨上乱扎。刀子折断了,他用短棍。短棍也丢了,他外用舵把来打。尽管结果鱼肉都被咬去了,但什么也无法摧残他的意志。上天似乎会怜惜过这样一位伟大的老人,他将厄运一次又一次降在老人身上,最终他的顽强意志却并没能得到好的结果,回港时只剩下鱼头鱼尾和一条脊骨。
他是个失败者,但同时他又是个胜利者。
败在没有捕到一条有用的鱼,胜在遇到困难时的坚毅不屈。
老人说,一个人并不是生来就要给打败的,你可以消灭他,却不能打败他。这句话令我印象深刻且受益,令我度过了一个又一个困难,走向美好明天。假如能够从失败中获取有益的经验,发现成功的曙光,把失败看成是同乡成功的必经之路,那才是从失败中获取的最大的收获。
虽然小说是小说,生活是生活,我们不可能像老人去一个苍茫的大海,不服输地和鲨鱼搏斗,但我们可以在摔倒后,珍藏那枚把我们绊倒的石头,然后带着它,负着伤,继续前行,同时等待天空中的云雾拨开。
篇6:巫哲小说《撒野》读后感
全文共 774 字
+ 加入清单不记得是哪位大咖说过:经典是生生世世的诱惑。从来没有那么投入,那么认真地读完哪本现代著作,除了四大名著。而孩子给我推荐这本巫哲的《撒野》,让我从头到尾都被一个高中男孩所具有的细腻丰盈的情感所蛊惑,被那不离不弃、干净透明、惺惺相惜的非主流情感所感动着。
心灵细微之处的痛痒被这两位少年所牵引,所触动。
小说语言干净、明快、简洁,没有丝毫的扭捏作态、无病呻吟,有的只是日常的只言片语,生活琐碎。虽然是关于不被社会认可的非常态BL,但却令读者,无论他或她是同性或异性或双性恋者,都会被男孩细腻的情感,被他们年轻、淳朴、不带任何修饰的粗糙但率真的性情而触动。从头到尾,文字中扑面而来的满是青春的气息,干净如明媚的阳光。
小说中的人物,个个鲜活,形象跃然纸上。读者从中可以发现了自己的影子,朋友的影子,同学的影子,老师的影子或者父辈的影子。深切体会并理解了当时所不能理解也没想着去理解的许多人和事。也再次重温了一遍高中历史,自己青葱的岁月。
小说中的学霸蒋丞学渣顾飞,有着非同寻常的人生经历。他们两个相互救赎相互爱的点点滴滴,感动了读者。
也正是因为《撒野》,让读者对学霸有了全新的了解。学霸不是一副冷冰冰、拒人于千里之外的学习机器,而是有个性、有隐忍、有不堪的过往、有善良、有冷酷、有恩有义的有情少年。学渣也不再是放任自我,让人不屑的渣渣,而是有情有义有爱有责任感的,不该沉寂的一颗璀璨的金子,他因为太多的牵跘,太多的责任要去承担和梳理,他不能优秀,他不能拔萃,他刻意地淹没自己的才华,而默默地用自己年轻性感的肩膀扛起生活的重担。
最让人感慨的是,这对少年刚开始就对对方的颜值颇为欣赏,也正是应了这句话“始于颜值,陷于才华,终于人品”。
末尾,作者没有给读者一个交代,他两个是否最后能在一起,是以怎样的状态在一起,但读者已经很心安,这两个少年会有不错的未来,这是肯定的。
篇7:《水浒传》经典长篇小说读后感
全文共 646 字
+ 加入清单《水浒传》是我国四大名著之一,它以生动的故事情节和真实的人物形象受到人们广泛喜爱。假期里,我就读了这本书。
文学家金圣叹曾说过:“《水浒传》所叙,叙一百零八人,人有其性情,人有其气质,人有其形状,人有其声口。”是啊,梁山一百单八将都有自己的个性:“智多星”吴用神机妙算,“霹雳火”秦明有勇有谋,“花和尚”鲁智深洒脱豪爽,“黑旋风”李逵鲁莽急躁……但不管怎样,他们都有一个共性——忠义双全。
忠,就是对上忠心不二,对友尽心竭力。“忠义”,有“忠”必有“义”。这个“义”字包涵很多:讲义气、大义凛然、正义、见义勇为……梁山一百零八个好汉,为兄弟赴汤蹈火,两肋插刀,为了这个“义”字,兄弟今生两家姓,来生一个妈。“打虎将”李忠、“小霸王”周通统领的桃花山寨将面临被官军歼灭的危险,他们向“花和尚”鲁智深的二龙山寨求援。而鲁智深与周通、李忠二人曾有一段恩怨,可鲁智深没有想到这些,一接到求援信号,二话不说率兵救援桃花寨。“黑旋风”李逵对宋江忠心耿耿,但他一听到假宋江调戏妇女,盛怒之下赶到梁山泊忠义堂,大骂宋公明,还砍了那杆“替天行道”的杏黄旗,这是一种正义的表现。鲁智深听到金翠莲被镇关西霸占,他一怒之下三拳打死了镇关西,这是真正的见义勇为。
可是这个忠义说起来容易做起来难。多少忠义的革命战士为祖国牺牲了生命:董存瑞舍身炸碉堡,黄继光用胸膛堵住了敌人的枪眼……他们对祖国忠心耿耿,大义凛然,这是对“忠义”二字的诠释。
《水浒传》是一本好书,它是当时社会的真实写照,它深刻地反映出哪里有欺压哪里就会有反抗。

+ 加入清单A simple story, an ordinary man, an ordinary big marlin, in the vast sea happened seemingly ordinary and extraordinary experience.
This book is about a Cuban old fisherman named diego, a man fishing alone, in the 84 days after nothing caught a big marlin. This is the old man never seen nor heard of than his boat two feet longer a big fish. Big fish strength is big, dragging the boat drifted for two days and two nights, the old man has experienced in the past two days and two nights have never suffered tough test, finally put the big shark fin die, tied to the bow. At this time, however, encountered a shark, the old man and the shark dogfight, result the big marlin was shark ate up, old man finally dragged home only a pair of bare fish skeleton.
After reading this novel, I found that the old mans story is not only a symbol of the relationship between human and nature, and a symbol of the whole human spirit indestructible. In reality, though he failed, but in spirit, he is the winner. Here, the old man is not only represents a person, but to represent a force, a kind of spirit, that is to let a person admire perseverance, the spirit of never yielding. I also very admire the novel old fishermans will, he let me know how a man must be strong, cant meet the frustration is losing, that will never be a one thing.
一个简单的故事,一个平凡的老人,一条普通的大马林鱼,在茫茫大海上发生了看似平凡而又不平凡的经历。
这本书讲了古巴的一个名叫桑地亚哥的老渔夫,独自一个人出海打鱼,在一无所获的84天之后钓到了一条无比巨大的马林鱼。这是老人从来没见过也没听说过的比他的船还长两英尺的一条大鱼。鱼大劲也大,拖着小船漂流了整整两天两夜,老人在这两天两夜中经历了从未经受的艰难考验,终于把大鱼刺死,拴在船头。然而这时却遇上了鲨鱼,老人与鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗,结果大马林鱼被鲨鱼吃光了,老人最后拖回家的只剩下一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。
读完这篇小说,我发现,老人的故事不仅象征着人与自然的关系,而且象征着整个人类坚不可摧的精神。在现实中,他虽然失败了,但在精神上,他却是胜利者。在这里,老人不仅仅是代表着一个人,而是代表了一股力量,一种精神,那是让人敬佩的坚韧不拔,永不服输的精神。我也十分佩服小说中老渔夫的意志,他让我懂得了一个人一定要坚强,不能遇到一点挫折就败退,这样永远也做不成一件事。
篇9:小说《童年》读后感
全文共 488 字
+ 加入清单我读过不少描写大海的豪迈诗篇;也读过不少描写山峦的文章;
还读过不少使人潸然泪下的事情散文。但当我捧起高尔基的自传体
它虽然没有化丽的词语修饰,却有着朴素感人的故事情节;它虽然没有天马行空一般的想象,却记述了一件件平凡的生活事件;它虽然没有太注重语、句、段、篇之间的连贯性,却很好的体现出了他童年生活经历的沧桑与感人的故事情节。
在“母亲”高大的身躯下,埋藏着无尽的伤心与悲痛;在“外祖父”冷酷的表情下,更多的是对子女的关心与愤怒;在“外祖母”大大的眼睛里,埋藏着对“外祖父”的不解于对神的信赖;在
“小冈茨”高瘦的身躯下,埋藏着对两个“叔叔”得愤怒;在“我”童年时幼小的心灵里,充斥着对生活的憧憬,对学习的热情……与高尔基的童年相比,我们那已失去的童年是否显得更美好,更幸福?——没有父母的责备,只有他们对我们的“百依百顺”;没有生活贫困的窘况,只有“衣来伸手,饭来张口”的幸福;没有读不起书的贫困,只有一座座高耸的学校摆立在我们面前;没有……
想到这里,我们是否要好好的歌颂那段美好的时光?让我们用双手谱写一曲歌,来歌颂童年的时光吧!
篇10:小说《草房子》读后感心得
全文共 613 字
+ 加入清单爸爸带我去购书中心,我挑了曹文轩爷爷写的《草房子》。这本书像充满魔力一样,深深地吸引着我。
这本书写了男孩桑桑在油麻地小学读书时发生的故事。它写了小学的老师,有蒋一轮、温幼菊,还有桑桑的爸爸桑乔;还写了很多他的小学同学,有秃鹤、纸月、细马、杜小康,这些农村孩子善良、温柔、可爱、活泼,我被他们的故事感动了,同时也学到了很多的道理。
一是在困难面前一定要坚强。杜小康家里出了事,一下由富人变成穷人,他没有放弃读书的想法,而是去借钱摆地摊,赚了钱也是为了重新去上学;还有细马,他的家被大水冲坏了,爸爸死了,妈妈疯了,但是他把妈妈找了回来,还发誓要给妈妈造一座大房子。
二是要学会战胜自卑。陆鹤因为秃顶经常被同学笑话,但在学校文艺表演时,他努力把每件事情做好,最后同学们都夸奖了他。其实,每个人都不是完美的,都会自卑,但是用行动来改变自己的看法,让自己变得有信心,才是最重要的。
三是在朋友有困难时要关心他们。有几个坏孩子常常欺负纸月,桑桑勇敢地站了出来,制止他们的行为;还有在杜小康最困难的时候,桑桑也一直在鼓励他。
四是在遇到大事情时不要慌张。桑桑生了重病,以为自己要死了。但是他没有绝望,而是决心在有限的时间里做些好事。他为了实现诺言,带着重病,带妹妹去城里玩,为的是让妹妹高兴,他还艰难地背着妹妹登上了城楼。正是因为他心态非常好,桑桑的病最后神奇地被医好了!
这本书十分精彩,还有很多很多的道理,帮助我去思考问题,让我心灵快快成长起来。
篇11:百万英镑读后感英文
全文共 3103 字
+ 加入清单Based on Mark Twains novel, The Millionaire Pound Note takes an interesting satirical look at the hypocrisy stemming from class distinction in the 50s England. England is a country where class and wealth are given extreme significance, especially among the rich. The film shows the hypocrisy that existed among these people, how the rich are quick to change face when in an instant they find out that youre a man of wealth and how within the next moment they revert back to their condescending selves when all wealth is lost.
Interestingly, The Millionaire also briefly looks at how the English perceived Americans in that era. Rich Americans were welcomed as outsiders and the poor were quickly shunned away. The fact that hes an outsider either makes him more appealing or the complete opposite. The story sticks to the main theme by emphasizing on the hypocrisy of the upper class society but at the same time it also creates a balance that prevents the movie from being a mockery of the British society. The movie drags at some point but the love story appears at the right time and there is plenty of comedy to keep one entertained. A charming Gregory Peck totally nails the part and the luminous Jane Griffiths is a treat. Reginald Beckwith, as Pecks sidekick Rock is amusing. The ending is a little predictable but the director does an overall good job by rounding it up and presenting his points.
Mark Twains short story of "one million pounds" is a very good work. The article on the "money is everything," "money is omnipotent," the idea of a satire, to expose the ugly face of capitalist society.
"One million pounds" is about a poor, honest man, that is, the heroine of this story has received a pair of brothers, the letter sent to him inside one million pounds. The brothers had made a bet, gambling, if a poor, honest people who come knocking on the door received the one million pounds, he will be what kind of results? Brother that he would starve to death because he could not prove that the money was his own, will be subject to other peoples doubts, and even the banks do not let him save money. His younger brother that he would lead a very good, and therefore they have the brothers of one million pounds will be loaned to check the poorest people, and spent 30 days abroad. Did not expect that during this period of time, people have the rare fortune suddenly rich, has tried to cozy up to him, from the free food, buy clothes, free accommodation, like a beggar, like to please him, and continue to improve his social status until the exception of the highest outdoor Wang Duke on! Not only that, he also has been a good wife and 30,000 pounds of bank interest, and finally from two brothers got a very good job. Lived a very, very happy life.
See here, I am so envious of the "lucky" the heroine, but at the same time I would like to: people reason to curry favor with him, not just because when people value money too it? Worship of money is shameful and should not be reaping more! Money is not omnipotent, the world than money, there are many more important things … …
篇12:《爱的教育》小说读后感
全文共 437 字
+ 加入清单爱是什么?在这个纷纭的世界里,爱究竟是什么?《爱的教育》给了我们答案。
《爱的教育》采用日记的形式,讲述一个叫安利柯的男孩的成长故事,纪录了他在家庭、学校、社会的见闻,字里行间洋溢着对祖国、父母、朋友的真挚的爱。
爱是这本书的主旨,爱如空气,将我们包围,正因为它无影无形而总被我们忽略。父母的爱,老师的爱,同学的爱,无时无刻不在我们身边。书中父母对“我”无微不至的关怀,老师无私伟大的教诲,生病时同学的关心陪伴……让我们感动不已。
书中的一个个小小的故事,不仅是书中人物受到熏陶,同样我被其中所体现的强烈情感而震撼。
在现代教育中,不管是学校教育还是家庭教育,“爱的教育”都应该是其核心,是其基础。有了“爱的教育”,我们才会用一种纯真的眼光去看待这个社会,才会以感恩的心态面对这个复杂社会中的一切。受过“爱的教育”的人,才是健康的,完整的,合格的人,由这样的人组成的社会才是和谐的社会。
相信读过《爱的教育》的人都会被书中所描绘的社会所吸引,我想,这应该是《爱的教育》的魅力之所在吧。
篇13:我和书的故事作文:沈石溪动物小说读后感
全文共 458 字
+ 加入清单动物之间也有爱,而且不像我们想象中那么单薄,而是很强烈,很浓厚的。
甚至比人类之间的爱,还要强烈!这几天,我一直在读动物小说大王沈石溪写的《鸟奴》,让我感受到了动物之间的那份浓厚、强烈、令人意想不到的那份真正的爱!这本书主要讲了:鹩哥为了让自己的儿女平平安安活下去,所以和蛇雕生活在一起。为了赢得活下去的权利,给蛇雕白白当努力,想借助蛇雕的伟兴吓吓蛇,让儿女成功的活下去,可最后几个儿女却一个个走向了死亡的世界里面生活。
在我看来,我认为鹩哥不因该为蛇雕白白的当努力,其实就是为了让儿女不受到蛇的危害,能成功地生存。可鹩哥凭自己的能力,能保护到它的家人,但一定要有信心,只要有信心,你一定能成功!从侧面的角度来讲,鹩哥每天给蛇雕打扫卫生做奴力,这都是为了谁呢?还不是希望儿女快快乐乐、幸福的活下去。再鹩哥认为,只要为了让儿女成功存活下来,不管做什么,不管受什么苦它都愿意,但只有这一个要求。
动物之间的爱如此伟大,只要让儿女存活,它可以放下自己的尊严,可以不管任何事情,只要让自己的儿女存活下来。这一种亲情,让人难以忘记。
篇14:长篇小说平凡的世界读后感悟
全文共 777 字
+ 加入清单书中自有黄金屋,书中自有颜如玉。
古人早就说过,书籍之多,浩如烟海。我们沉静在书的海洋中,收获着丰富的知识。每读一本好书,就是对人生的一次感悟。在此,我推荐一本书:《平凡的世界》
平凡,是生活的本色。每个人对于这个浩渺的世界来说,都十分渺小,脆弱,微不足道。这个世界是平凡的,悲与欢,生与死,穷与富。世界的更变,对于历史的长河来说,无非是些平凡事。
这是一部伟大的巨著,为我们解说平凡和苦难,阐释了生活的意义。书中为我们描述的是一个平凡事情,一个黄土地上的世界,这里生活着一群世世代代面朝黄土背朝天的普通人。他们演绎着一幕幕生老病死,悲欢离合,穷苦与富裕,苦难与拼搏,世界更变的戏剧。是悲剧?是喜剧?也许都有一点,书中没有华丽的藻饰,没有惊险离奇的情节,没有惊天动地的场面,有的只是平凡的人、平凡的生活、平凡的感情、平凡的故事。
书中给我印象最深的时候孙少平,这是一位对苦难有着深切的认识、对生活有着深邃的理解、对精神世界有着深刻追求的人,他有铮铮铁骨,他有坚韧的毅力,强大的精神力量,巨大的勇气,从学生时代的“非洲人”到成年时代的“揽工汉”,他经历的是艰苦卓绝的人生奋斗,在痛苦和磨砺中,他形成一种对苦难的骄傲感,崇高感,我欣赏他对苦难的哲学,钦佩他对劳动的认识,羡慕他对生活的理解。
他是一个平平凡凡的人,一个比普通农民多读几本书的人,一个对生活意义有着更高层次追求的人,在他写给他妹妹的信中充分体现了他对生活的认识:“我们出生于贫苦的农民家庭——永远不要鄙薄我们的出身,他带给我们的好处将使我们一身受用不尽,但我们一定要从我们的出身的局限中解脱出来,从意识上彻底被判农民的狭义性,追求更高的意义…….
平凡的世界中有一群不平凡的人,是这群不平凡的人组成了这个平凡的世界,读完了这本书,人的灵魂也许得以净化,不在为平凡的出身感到羞耻,而会为了人生的不平凡而奋斗。
篇15:《神秘岛》小说读后感
全文共 735 字
+ 加入清单在假期,我闲着无聊,便拿起一本名叫《神秘岛》的书,开始津津有味地读了起来。我一般读书的时候都先看简介,我翻到第一页,就看到了简介的内容。
上面是这样说的,美国南北战争时,有五个逃犯,乘气球逃跑了,这五个人中有:斯密斯、纳布、热带翁·斯皮莱、彭克·罗夫、哈伯,他们掉在一个荒岛上,经过几年的努力,最后终于回家了。
刚开始,他们什么东西都没有,都差点饿死了,但是他们团结互助,依靠自身拥有的智慧和知识,成为不屈不饶的生存者。
这本书最让我佩服的是一个就是来自新西兰的十五岁少年赫伯特·布朗。他年龄比我大不了几岁,他十分聪明好学、上进,他脑子里充满各种各样的生物学知识,小小年纪,堪称生物专家。他在生物学方面的知识,不仅让我这样的小学生感叹,就连书中其他几个有着丰富知识和经验的主人公都佩服不已。这位小天才利用自己所学的知识,不仅发现了用来做面包的“面包树”,用来驱除蚊虫和瘴气的桉树,还发现了各种新鲜的蔬菜,可以治病的药草,以及彭克·罗夫最喜爱抽的烟草,为这批岛上的“流浪儿”居民做出了卓越的贡献。
古人说“自助者,天必助之。”在到处充满危机、无人居住的荒岛上,居民们却能够如此安逸地生活,除了他们拥有勇敢、顽强和智慧的品质之外,他们还有丰富的知识和才能,更重要的是,这个岛是个神奇的岛!岛上拥有丰富的矿产供他们所需。
我时常听老师讲,人的一生不可能一帆风顺,风浪不知什么时候会到来,如果陷入绝境,遇到不测时,我们需要储备足够多的知识和能量,为那些不可预知的危险境遇做准备,才使自己不至于在今后的生活中陷入绝境。
读了这本《神秘岛》,我感受到,今后,自己一定要努力学习科学文化知识,像书中的十五岁少年赫伯特·布朗一样,用知识来武装自己,为今后的生活做好储备,就算到了荒岛上,依然能生存!
篇16:温馨治愈小说摆渡人读后感
全文共 1607 字
+ 加入清单阳春三月,于报纸的某个角落得知《摆渡人》这本书,前往书店匆匆买来,翻开那一刻,感觉有点独特,有点悬疑,有点浪漫,随着情节的展开,平静的心开始经历了害怕,紧张,缠绵,坚定。
书中讲述的是一个父母离异性格内向的小女孩迪伦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,迪伦醒来时以为自己是这场事故的唯一幸存者,其实她是唯一的遇难者。走出隧道口和小男孩相遇的是迪伦的灵魂,小男崔斯坦就是她灵魂的摆渡者,将刚刚去世迪伦的灵魂从荒原摆渡到另一个世界。在跨越荒原的日子里,崔斯坦一直保护迪伦,两人相依为命,产生了爱情。当迪伦跨越荒原成功摆渡到另一个世界时,因留恋小崔斯坦而找到了回到荒原的办法,二人一起从荒原逆行回到了人间,达到了圆满,结局让读者回味无穷。
没读这本书之前,我常常想,是不是每个人的存在都是因为我们被需要着?正如书中写道“如果我真的存在,也是因为你需要我。”迪伦走出火车残骸第一眼见到的是她灵魂摆渡人——崔斯坦。他自然而然地带领着她,保护着她,穿越茫茫荒原,战胜了狡黠的恶魔,护送她的灵魂到达应该去的地方。不同于以往任何一个被摆渡的灵魂,在知道自己已经死亡的事实后,迪伦没有颓废和消沉,而是淡定地接受了死亡的事实。崔斯坦用不变的承诺,勇往直前的行动,摆渡了迪伦的灵魂,陪她抵达幸福的彼岸。她在崔斯坦的引领下,与如影随形的恶魔们勇敢抗争,从最开始的依靠,信赖,慢慢变成了纯洁的爱恋。正如封页所设计的一样,在乌烟瘴气的荒原,有一束光在那里熠熠生辉,那一束光预示着的应该是一种顺理成章的完美爱恋。
我们不知道人死后是什么样子的,难道真的有灵魂这一说吗?记得有位专家说过:“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后再回头告诉世人答案。”我一直有像那位老者一样对死亡保持好奇心,亦或相信还有另一个世界的存在。灵魂到哪里去了呢?作者克莱儿·麦克福尔想象出了这样一个虚幻的空间,制造了路上的艰难。人死后,在你灵魂和肉体脱离的那一刻,在人间的边缘你的摆渡人会在那里等着你,带你走向安全屋,走过荒原,穿越黑海,战胜恶魔鬼怪,到达另一个你想去的世界。百折屈挠的经历以及另一个世界安逸生活告诉读者:其实,死亡并不可怕,人死了会有灵魂摆渡者的引领和保护,只是离开了一个现实宇宙能看见的世界到达另一个世界而已。
如果命运是一条孤独的河流,谁会是你灵魂的摆渡人?在荒原,崔斯坦是迪伦的摆渡人,他引领着迪伦经历了最初知道自己死亡时的疑惑不安,到接受现实,适应现实,他完成了他摆渡灵魂的“工作”;遇到了迪伦后,崔斯坦开始重新审视自己的这份“工作”,从最初的投入到逐渐的冷漠,到刻意的回避情感,再由顽强的迪伦用爱来点燃他逐渐坚硬的心房,摆渡人温婉而自然地进行了转换,迪伦此时又成为了崔斯坦的摆渡人,她伸出手指,“扣”起他的手,开始坚定不移的指引崔斯坦来尝试着进入到她的世界,回归人间。这足以告诉我们,每个人都是自己心灵的摆渡人,都有自己心像所投射出来的荒原,或风景清丽,或障烟重重,有悬崖峭壁的起伏,有深不可测的黑水。正如现实生活中,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,慈爱。其实做到这些并不难,关键看你对生活的态度,你想要将自己的心灵摆渡到哪个河岸,你执念于什么,你将得到什么。
“如果我真的存在,也是因为你需要我!”轻轻合上这本书,忍不住眼角湿润,很久很久都没有被自己所感动了。原来,读懂了《摆渡人》我们也就读懂了自己。我们所信奉的,所心仪的,所选择的,就是需要我们自己不论任何艰难险阻,都要去实现的,因为,我们自己就是我们的摆渡人!只有心怀希望,努力生活,才会面朝阳光!
篇17:2024骆驼祥子小说读后感
全文共 658 字
+ 加入清单《骆驼祥子》这本书的作者是文学家老舍,小说主要写了一个叫祥子的人力车夫的悲惨故事。
祥子一开始年轻力壮,什么不良嗜好也没有,一心想买一辆属于自己的车,祥子省吃俭用三年才买上了一辆,他此后的生活越来越起劲。一次被大兵们抓去,车被抢走了,由于他的机灵,他逃出来还带了三个骆驼,卖了三十五元,使他有了重卖车的期望,但又被侦探敲诈了。他娶了虎妞,虎妞买了二强子的车给祥子,却又因生病花光了虎妞的积蓄,虎妞又因难产死了,祥子只好卖了车办丧事。小福子对祥子有情有义,为了父亲和弟弟,她去白房子,最终吊死。祥子经过这些挫折,最终完全堕落,心中的一切梦想的破灭。他吃喝嫖赌,还出卖朋友、撒谎骗钱,变成社会的行尸走肉。
从一个诚实、正直、年轻力壮的小伙子变成一个撒谎、懒惰的渣子,我感触很大,过去的老北京那些没权没势的穷苦车夫受尽压迫与欺辱,心中的期望一点点变成失望,最终变成绝望。
对于祥子,他一开始有着劳动人民的淳朴善良,像骆驼一样老实、吃苦耐劳。如此好的一个社会青年,若生于今日的社会,定会有所作为。
虽然祥子最终变得落魄、懒惰,但之前的一些品质值得我们今日的中学生学习,取他人之长,丰富我们的精神。祥子能忍、重情重义、老实、正直、友善、对目标不懈追求、有期望就有动力等众多优秀品质。
其实环境也会影响个人,艰苦的环境造就能吃苦耐劳的人们,和平富裕反而使有些人懒惰;过度的欺压和逼迫也会改变个人,正如祥子等许多车夫。所以,不能因为环境改变而改变自己的优秀品质,但遇到比自己更优秀的人,要学习他人的长处,使自己长处更长,短处不在使自己自卑。
篇18:夏至未至小说郭敬明读后感
全文共 278 字
+ 加入清单几年之后再重新看回夏至未至,揪心的感觉依旧。唯独改变的,大概是身边那些抵御不了岁月变换的风景,还有那些本来就不属于自己世界里的人。
立夏这个角色,因为郑爽要饰演剧版的她,让我有了很多分的怜爱。也许普普通通的她并没有太多奢望,但是她的世界却因为突然走进来的许多人而变得无比复杂。香樟树下的年少轻狂已经随着闷热的空气蒸发,最终立夏没有和傅小司在一起真的是最大的遗憾了吧。小四就是喜欢写得那么悲伤,当年揪心到我无法呼吸(笑。
现在看起来,依旧觉得难受。只不过,长大了之后觉得,那种不痛不痒的无奈显得更无以复加。
期待剧版的夏至未至,期待我的立夏小朋友。期待你们的青春。

全文共 1183 字
+ 加入清单与三体文明的战争使人类第一次看到了宇宙黑暗的真相,地球文明因为黑暗森林打击的存在如临大敌,不敢在太空中暴露自己。罗辑的威慑使三体文明被迫解除了智子的封锁,两个文明开始互相交流。
(与第二部几乎同时)航天发动机工程师程心进入行星防御理事会战略情报局(PIA)工作,为向三体舰队发射探测器提出了“航线推进”方式,促使暗恋自己的大学同学、癌症患者云天明放弃安乐死成为阶梯计划中的被执行人。
黑暗战役中幸存的战舰“青铜时代”号被唤回,却受到欺骗以谋杀和反人类罪被逮捕审判,而“蓝色空间”号在其警示下继续逃离,地球派出能够进行恒星际航行、具有发射引力波能力的“万有引力”号与三体的两个“水滴”同行对其追击。
程心由于云天明赠送给她的一颗恒星被物理博士生艾AA发现带有行星而从冬眠中被唤醒,发现这个时代的世界变得女性化,过去在PIA的上司维德为了继任执剑人枪击她未果(后由智子得知维德的威慑度为100%),程心在具象化的“智子”劝导下参加竞选。
因为罗辑的成功,程心将执剑人看作只需花费时间的一项任务。程心刚刚拿到引力波发射器的控制器后,六个水滴向地球发动攻击,程心出于“母性”未启动广播,六个水滴将地球上的引力波发射器全部摧毁。同时,进入智子盲区的与“万有引力”号同行的两个水滴开始攻击两艘战舰。随舰航行的宇宙学观测者关一帆提出了宇宙维度是病态的观点;“蓝色空间”号上的人员借助四维空间碎片摧毁了水滴,并占领了“万有引力”号。两舰全体表决启动了引力波广播,向宇宙公布三体星系的坐标。另一个智慧文明接到广播后用接近光速的粒子摧毁了刚刚捕获三体母星为其卫星的恒星。三体母星在恒星爆发中被完全摧毁。
三体世界毁灭后,被三体第一舰队截获的云天明与地球取得联系,通过自己编创的三个童话向程心透露大量情报;人类自以为悟出了生存竞争的秘密,开始进行掩体计划,程心将造光速飞船的理想和星环公司交给了托马斯·维德。由于空间曲率驱动研究受到公众和政府反对,维德等科学家试图用反物质子弹争取自由被程心终止。最终维德被处死,所有的参与者被处决。
维德死后,参与者不断从牢中被放出。花了35年才开始继续研究,留下一艘实际上的完成品飞船“星环”号。然而宇宙中还有更强大的文明,战争的方式和武器已经远远超出人类的想象,歌者文明使用一种能使三维变成二维的技术,毁灭了整个太阳系,由于逃逸速度为光速,程心的错误判断使得人类耽误了光速飞船的研究。整个太阳系变成了薄薄的一幅画,只有程心和艾AA乘坐唯一的光速飞船离开。
而程心和艾AA驾着“星环”号飞离了那里。她们在云天明送给程心那颗恒星的一颗行星上遇到关一帆,探讨了宇宙降维的真相,当云天明终于到来时却不慎触发了“死线”,整个星球陷入光速黑洞中,飞船花了一千多万年才方降落,于是程心和关一帆在云天明留给他们的小宇宙中短暂居住,直到受号召将物质归还给大宇宙,重新进入宇宙中生活。
篇20:《简爱》的英文读后感
全文共 8659 字
+ 加入清单人们普遍认为《简·爱》是夏洛蒂·勃朗特“诗意的生平写照”,是一部具有自传色彩的作品。下面是语文迷网整理的简爱英文读后感范文,供大家参考选择。
篇1:《简爱》英文读后感
Jane Eyre, is a poor but aspiring, small in body but huge in soul, obscure but self-respecting girl. After we close the covers of the book, after having a long journey of the spirit, Jane Eyre, a marvelous figure, has left us so much to recall and to think:
We remember her goodness: for someone who lost arms and blinded in eyes, for someone who despised her for her ordinariness, and even for someone who had hurt her deeply in the past.
We remember her pursuit of justice. It’s like a companion with the goodness. But still, a virtuous person should promote the goodness on one side and must check the badness on the other side.
We remember her self-respect and the clear situation on equality. In her opinion, everyone is the same at the God’s feet. Though there are differences in status、in property and also in appearance, but all the human being are equal in personality.
We also remember her striving for life, her toughness and her confidence…
When we think of this girl, what she gave us was not a pretty face or a transcendent temperament that make us admire deeply, but a huge charm of her personality.
Actually, she wasn’t pretty, and of course, the ordinary appearance didn’t make others feel good of her, even her own aunt felt disgusted with it. And some others even thought that she was easy to look down on and to tease, so when Miss Ingram met Jane Eyre, she seemed quite contemptuous, for that she was obviously much more prettier than ‘the plain and ugly governess’. But as the little governess had said: ‘Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!’ This is the idea of equality in Jane Eyre’s mind. God hadn’t given her beauty and wealth, but instead, God gave her a kind mind and a thinking brain. Her idea of equality and self-respect impress us so much and let us feel the power inside her body.
In my mind, though a person’s beauty on the face can make others once feel that one is attractive and charming, if his or her mind isn’t the same beautiful as the appearance, such as beauty cannot last for, when others find that the beauty which had charmed them was only a falsity, it’s not true, they will like the person no more. For a long time, only a person’s great virtue, a noble soul, a beautiful heart can be called as AN EVERLASTING BEAUTY, just as Kahill Gibran has said, that ‘Beauty is a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted’. I can feel that how beauty really is, as we are all fleshly men, so we can’t distinguish whether a man is of nobleness or humbleness, but fleshly men, so we can’t distinguish whether a man is of nobleness or humbleness, but as there are great differences in our souls, and from that, we can know that whether a man is noble or ordinary, and even obscure, that is, whether he is beautiful or not.
Her story makes us thinking about life and we learn much from her experience, at least, that is a fresh new recognition of the real beauty.
篇2:《简爱》英文读后感
I first read "Jane Eyre" in eighth grade and have read it every few years since. It is one of my favorite novels, and so much more than a gothic romance to me, although thats how I probably would have defined it at age 13. I have always been struck, haunted in a way, by the characters - Jane and Mr. Rochester. They take on new depth every time I meet them...and theirs is a love story for the ages.
Charlotte Brontes first published novel,www.99zuowen.com, and her most noted work, is a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story. Jane is plain, poor, alone and unprotected, but due to her fierce independence and strong will she grows and is able to defy societys expectations of her. This is definitely feminist literature, published in 1847, way before the beginning of any feminist movement. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the novel has had such a wide following since it first came on the market. It is also one of the first gothic romances published and defines the genre.
Jane Eyre, who is our narrator, was born into a poor family. Her parents died when she was a small child and the little girl was sent to live with her Uncle and Aunt Reed at Gateshead. Janes Uncle truly cared for her and showed his affection openly, but Mrs. Reed seemed to hate the orphan, and neglected her while she pampered and spoiled her own children. This unfair treatment emphasized Janes status as an unwanted outsider. She was often punished harshly. On one occasion her nasty cousin Jack picked a fight with her. Jane tried to defend herself and was locked in the terrifying "Red Room" as a result. Janes Uncle Reed had died in this room a little while before, and Mrs. Reed knew how frightened she was of the chamber. Since Jane is the narrator, the reader is given a first-hand impression of the childs feelings, her heightened emotional state at being imprisoned. Indeed, she seems almost like an hysterical child, filled with terror and rage. She repeatedly calls her condition in life "unjust" and is filled with bitterness. Looking into the mirror Jane sees a distorted image of herself. She views her reflection and sees a "strange little figure," or "tiny phantom." Jane has not learned yet to subordinate her passions to her reason. Her passions still erupt unchecked. Her isolation in the Red Room is a presentiment of her later isolation from almost every society and community. This powerful, beautifully written scene never fails to move me.
Mrs. Reed decided to send Jane away to the Lowood School, a poor institution run by Mr. Brocklehurst, who believed that suffering made grand people. All the children there were neglected, except to receive harsh punishment when any mistake was made. At Lowood, Jane met Helen Burns, a young woman a little older than Jane, who guided her with vision, light and love for the rest of her life. Janes need for love was so great. It really becomes obvious in this first friendship. Helen later died from fever, in Janes arms. Her illness and death could have been avoided if more attention had been paid to the youths. Jane stayed at Lowood for ten years, eight as a student and two as a teacher. Tired and depressed by her surroundings, Jane applied for the position of governess and found employment at Thornfield. The mansion is owned by a gentleman named Edward Fairfax Rochester. Her job there was to teach his ward, an adorable little French girl, Adele. Over a long period the moody, inscrutable Rochester confides in Jane and she in him. The two form an unlikely friendship and eventually fall in love. Again, Janes need for love comes to the fore, as does her passionate nature. She blooms. A dark, gothic figure, Rochester also has a heart filled with the hope of true love and future happiness with Jane. Ironically, he has brought all his misery, past and future, on himself.
All is not as it seems at Thornfield. There is a strange, ominous woman servant, Grace Poole, who lives and works in an attic room. She keeps to herself and is rarely seen. From the first, however, Jane has sensed bizarre happenings at night, when everyone is asleep .There are wild cries along with violent attempts on Rochesters life by a seemingly unknown person. Jane wonders why no one investigates Mrs. Poole. Then a strange man visits Thornfield and mysteriously disappears with Mr. Rochester. Late that night Jane is asked to sit with the man while the lord of the house seeks a doctors help. The man has been seriously wounded and is weak from loss of blood. He leaves by coach, in a sorry state, first thing in the morning. Janes questions are not answered directly. This visit will have dire consequences on all involved. An explosive secret revealed will destroy all the joyful plans that Jane and Rochester have made. Jane, once more will face poverty and isolation.
Charlotte Brontes heroine Jane Eyre, may not have been graced with beauty or money, but she had a spirit of fire and was filled with integrity and a sense of independence - character traits that never waned in spite of all the oppression she encountered in life. Ms. Bronte brings to the fore in "Jane Eyre" such issues as: the relations between men and women in the mid-19 century, womens equality, the treatment of children and of women, religious faith and hypocrisy (and the difference between the two), the realization of selfhood, and the nature of love and passion. This is a powerhouse of a novel filled with romance, mystery and passions. It is at once startlingly fresh and a portrait of the times. Ms. Bronte will make your heart beat faster, your pulse race and your eyes fill with tears.
