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

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

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

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

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

篇2:简爱英文读后感

This is a story about a special and ueserved woman who has been exposed to a hostile environment but continuously and fearlessly struggling for her ideal life. The story can be interpreted as a symbol of the independent spirit.

It seems to me that many readers’ English reading experience starts with Jane Eyer. I am of no exception. As we refer to the movie “Jane Eyer”, it is not surprising to find some differences because of its being filmized and retold in a new way, but the spirit of the novel remains----to be an independent person, both physically and mentally.

Jane Eyer was a born resister, whose parents went off when she was very young, and her aunt,the only relative she had,treated her as badly as a ragtag. Since Jane’s education in Lomon person, just the same as any other girl around. The suffers from being humiliated and devastated teach Jane to be persevering and prize dignity over anything else.As a reward of revolting the ruthless oppression, Jane got a chance to be a tutor in Thornfield Garden. There she made the acquaintance of lovely Adele and that garden’s owner, Rochester, a man with warm heart despite a cold face outside. Jane expected to change the life from then on, but fate had decided otherwise: After Jane and Rochester fell in love with each other and got down to get marry, she unfortunately came to know in fact Rochester had got a legal wife, who seemed to be the shadow following

Rochester and led to his moodiness all the time ----Rochester was also a despairing person in need of salvation. Jane did want to give him a hand, however, she made up her mind to leave, because she didn’t want to betray her own principles, because she was Jane Eyer. The film has finally got a symbolist end: Jane inherited a large number of legacies and finally returned. After finding Rochester’s misfortune brought by his original mad wife, Jane chose to stay with him forever.

I don’t know what others feel, but frankly speaking, I would rather regard the section that Jane began her teaching job in Thornfield as the film’s end----especially when I heard Jane’s words “Never in my life have I been awaken so happily.” For one thing, this ideal and brand-new beginning of life was what Jane had been imagining for long as a suffering person; for another, this should be what the audiences with my views hoped her to get. But the professional judgment of producing films reminded me to wait for a totally different result: There must be something wrong coming with the excellence----perhaps not only should another section be added to eich the story, but also we may see from the next transition of Jane’s life that “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you would get.” (By Forrest Gump’s mother, in the film “Forrest Gump”)

What’s more, this film didn’t end when Jane left Thornfield. For Jane Eyer herself, there should always be somewhere to realize her great ideal of being independent considering her fortitude, but for Rochester, how he can get salvation?

The film gives the answer tentatively: Jane eventually got back to Rochester. In fact, when Jane

met Rochester for the first time, she scared his horse and made his heel strained, to a certain extent, which meant Rochester would get retrieval because of Jane. We can consider Rochester’s experiences as that of religion meaning. The fire by his frantic wife was the punishment for the cynicism early in his life. After it, Rochester got the mercy of the God and the love of the woman whom he loved. Here we can say: human nature and divinity get united perfectly in order to let such a story accord with the requirements of both two sides. The value of this film may be due to its efforts to explore a new way for the development of humanism under the faith of religion.

Life is ceaselessly changing, but our living principles remain. Firmly persisting for the rights of being independent gives us enough confidence and courage, which is like the beacon over the capriccioso sea of life. In the world of the film, we have found the stories of ourselves, which makes us so concerned about the fate of the dramatis personae.

In this era of rapid social and technological change leading to increasing life complexity and psychological displacement, both physical and mental effects on us call for a balance. We are likely to find ourselves bogged down in the Sargasso Sea of information overload and living unconsciousness. It’s our spirit that makes the life meaningful.

Heart is the engine of body, brain is the resource of thought, and great films are the mirrors of life. In

dubitably, “Jane Eyer” is one of them.

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.

导语:《黑骏马》是一部来自草原深处的博爱与情殇。 下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语读后感,欢迎阅读与借鉴,谢谢!

“Animals deserve our kindness, sympathy and understanding,” that is what Anna Sewell-the author of Black Beauty-wanted to convince her readers。 Thanks to Sewell, I now think about the animal-human relationship from both the human and the animal’s point of view。

The inspiration for Anna Sewell’s novel was drawn from her own relationship with horses。 Anna Sewell was born on March 20th, 1820 in Norfolk, England and was crippled while still very young。 Due to her disability, she relied on horse-drawn carriages and grew to love horses as a result。 She also became appalled by the careless and cruel treatment horses often received from humans and determined to write a book。。 In the second year of work on the book, she was told that she had only eighteen months to live, but she persevered in order “to induce kindness, sympathy and an understanding [of the ] treatment of horses。” Five years later, she was still working on Black Beauty, her only book。 Unfortunately, Sewell died a few months after publication and never learned of the book’s huge success。 Black Beauty formed an impassioned plea for animal rights at a time when such a notion had been dismissed as ridiculous。

The novel portrayed the real condition of working horses living in Britain during the Victorian Era。 In that time period, the wealthy thought that their horses were treated well because they never stepped into the stable。 In order to call people’s attention to horses’ hard life, Sewell tells the story through the first-person narrative voice of a horse。 This innovative personification of an animal made the book a real success。 Readers heard the stories straight from the horse’s mouth, literally, as an animal spoke of extremes of joy and suffering。 People were shocked by the truth exposed by the novel and changed their attitudes towards animals。

Sewell formed the novel with three kinds of characters: Black Beauty, Ginger and other farm animals。 Through their different experiences, I saw similarly painful lives led by the animals。 This method made the earnest appeal for animal rights become more and more persuasive。

As a domestic animal, Black Beauty was continuously sold from one family to another。 Over the years Beauty enjoyed good masters but also endured mean ones。 Sometimes, he was cared for and at other times tortured。 In the end, everything turns out all right in a story that is so tender and yet meaningful。 His story was so vivid that caught the readers’ heart。 The novel brought people laughter and tears and also enlightened them to understand animals at the same time。

Animals cannot speak so understanding is significant to them。 Once,for example, Beauty was drawing the carriage to a wooden bridge。 The bridge was flooded out in the river and John, the groom, was not aware that it was cracked。 But the quickly realized that something was wrong because of Beauty’s abnormal behavior。 Momentarily, a man shouted to them, “Stop! Stop!…The bridge is broken in the middle。 If you come across, you’ll fall in the river!” Beauty had saved John。 However, if John had not tried to understand what Beauty wanted to tell him, there would definitely have been an accident。 I learnt from the story that understanding animals is not only essential to them but is also beneficial to us ourselves。

The first sentence in this book is impressive. It reads: “It is a truth well known to all the world that an unmarried man in possession of a large fortune must be in need of a wife”. The undertone is very clear: the foundation of the marriage at that time is not emotion but possession.

People always think that Austen was an expert at telling love stories. In fact, the marriage in her book is not the result of love, but the result of economic needs. After reading this book, I know the truth is that a poor woman must be in need of a husband, a wealthy man.

I couldn’t forget how eager Mrs. Bennet wants to marry off her daughters. If you want to know why she is so crazy about these things, I must mention the situation in Britain at that time. Only the eldest son had the privilege of inheriting his father’s possessions. Younger sons and daughters who are used to luxurious lives have no choice but marry a man or woman in possession of a large fortune to continue their comfortable lives. Thus, we can see that getting married is a way to become wealthier, particularly for women without many possessions. Jane Austen told us that money and possession determined everything, including marriage and love in her century.

In “Pride and Prejudice”, the sister of Mr. Bingley strongly opposed his plan of marrying Jane because the Bennets don’t have many possessions and their social positions are much lower than them. From this, we can see there are a lot of obstacles for a not very rich woman to marry a wealthy husband. The society, the relatives would not allow them to get married.

In modern society, although the marriages of economic needs have decreased rapidly, the concept of “money determines everything” is still rooted in some people’s mind. A lot of parents try hard to interfere their children’s marriages. Education background, possessions, jobs remains the main reason that may influence one’s marriage. Marry for money is still a big problem in our society. We can’t help thinking: can money determine everything?

I have never thought so thin a book which is called The Catcher in the Rye can influence me so much. It makes me feel very impressive. And after reading this book, I have aroused many thoughts about it.

In todays literature world, The Catcher in the Rye is to be recognized as a modern classic. After reading this book, adults can increase the understanding of teenagers; young people can increase the understanding of their future life. No matter whom after reading this book will improve their ability about to be vigilant against the reality. It also can make you choose one self-reliance way to your future easily.

This book told us a profound significance story. The of this novel Holden hated all the hypocritical things and really wanted to pursuit the pure reality at first. Because of the development of his society, he finally submits to the development process of the social reality. It deeply show the loneliness, loss, pain of younger generation which is grow up after the World War II in U.S.

Well, I think that though Holden used to seeing the reality of Bourgeois society, and he must promise with realistic society in the end, he also have many courage to have a try to rebel against the hypocritical world. This spirit should be set up if we want to improve the process of the world.

Now, we live in a country, which is in great reformation, and everything in the process of changing development. Well, with the development of our country; peoples thought also is in the change. At the same time, many peoples thoughts start confusion and depression. They forgotten their initial dreams and have no enthusiasm gradually. So, in the end, they began to yearn for mediocrity and have nothing to do.

Perhaps we can learn from this book to find our own shadow. To a certain extent that it reflects many characteristics of the adolescents, and we can also see the dark side of the society. With the materials progress, the spiritual world is inevitably producing some changes. At that time, what we need is a change which can make our dream into a reality. Therefore, what we should do is not to hope, not to wait, not to plain, but from now on, just start from your own efforts and watch your initial dream. Youd try your best to create the life you want with your own hands.

大卫·科波菲尔是一个苦命的孩子。在他未出生之前,父亲就去世了。母亲支撑不住整个家庭,只好在大卫8岁的时候该嫁了。一开始,大卫的继父对大卫很好,知道他继父的姐姐出现,他才暴露出原本凶狠贪婪的面目。他们姐弟折磨大卫,还把大卫的母亲折磨致死。在这期间,多亏了他善良朴实的老保姆辟果提。大卫才逃脱继父的魔手。

大卫在继父家的这段日子,可谓苦不堪言。可他坚持下来了。为什呢?因为母亲对他的爱,因为他知道如果他不听话,母亲会受苦。因为他身边有一个一直爱着他的仆人。因为他知道,小不忍则乱大谋。

之后,他被继父送到了一所堪称人间地狱的寄宿学校。他天天饱受着折磨………大卫终于忍受不了折磨,逃走了……

大卫投奔了他好心的姨妈,并被姨妈送进了一所很好的学校,接受良好的教育,从此大卫的好日子来了。

读完这篇文章,我首先感慨的是大卫坚持,奋发向上,刻苦努力的精神。一个人如果能在逆境中成长是难能可贵的,如果一个人能在逆境中取得自己的成绩是更可贵的。大卫就是这样的一个人。整本书的另一个表达的中心就是善良。有大伟在困难后,仍保持的善良,乐于助人。有无时无刻都在想着大卫的善良的老保姆辟果提。有虽貌似严肃,但却有菩萨般心肠的姨婆。正是他们的善良,像是一盏指明灯,照亮了读者的内心。

其实,大卫是幸福的。他最后终究得到了自己想要的一切。只要坚持就能成功。只要善良就能被人喜爱。

寒假里,我读了英国著名作家狄更斯的一本名著大卫。科波菲尔,从中感悟了许多启示。

大卫,一名普通的男孩。在他出生前父亲便已去世,留下年轻的母亲和保姆来照顾这个小家伙。虽然没得到过父爱,但在大人们的精心呵护下,大卫拥有了一段美好的童年。直到一天,母亲与一位男士相爱,大卫有了一个继父,一切都改变了。继父象魔鬼,贪婪凶狠,继父的姐姐也是个铁石心肠的人。温暖的家变得如冰窖般寒冷,很快大卫的母亲在他们姐弟的折磨下病逝了,大卫辍学做了童工。

在此期间,大卫有幸逃了出去,投奔了姨婆贝西。在贝西与狄克先生的帮助下,大卫得到了良好的教育,并与故人重逢。虽然饱经磨难,但善良、正直的品质一直留在大卫的身上。在接受死亡与分别的洗礼后,大卫在事业上有所成就,并收获了温馨的爱情。

与狄更斯的另一部作品雾都孤儿相比,它更加完美,不仅带有青年时的愤慨,更多了几分成熟,也更加贴近现实。无论孩童时代的大卫,还是青年时代的大卫,身上那股韧劲令人赞叹。如果换成我,我也能象大卫这样吗?面对凶狠的继父我会保持冷静吗?在经历那么多失败,我还会拥有希望吗?我觉得我很难做到。

从大卫的身上我看到,在危难之中,拥有乐观的心态是多么的重要,只有这样,我们才能成为那逆风飞翔的蝶。其实成功离我并不遥远,只要坚持追求,总能将他捉住,而我却常常畏惧失败,不敢向前。今后无论遇到怎样的困难,我一定以大卫为榜样,做一株看似柔弱,但历经风雨永不弯曲的青竹!

全书采用第一人称叙事,带有强烈的自传色彩,几乎融入了作者本人的全部人生经历。文章讲述了大卫从幼年到中年的成长过程。

少年时的他是磨难重重的。童年时代的大卫是个可怜的遗腹子,他没有爸爸只有继父,可是继父默得斯通不仅监视他和妈妈,更在不顺心的时候,对他拳脚相加,鞭打他。可怜的大卫没有一天享受到父爱的关怀与温暖,总是生活在无尽的痛苦之中。后来母亲也被继父折磨而死,他成了孤儿。毕竟继父不能算他真正的亲人,这个没有良知的人,也不再让大卫继续上学了。

青年时的他是奋发图强的。十岁那年,他被迫成了货行里的一名童工。每周只能拿到六先令的工资,只能勉强维持生计。这期间大卫认识了米考伯先生并和他成为了朋友。米考伯热情、真诚,追求自由,被贫困包围却始终充满乐观主义与对美好生活的向往,大卫深受感染,并以自己的微薄之力支持米考伯一家走过了一段艰苦的岁月。后来,大卫不愿意再继续过这种没有希望的日子,于是他成功出逃,跑到了善良的姨婆家,姨婆送她重新进入学校并且接受了良好的教育。他以顽强的不自我放弃的精神,追求到了自己想要的生活,最终和自己的爱人,亲人,幸福的生活了在一起。

大卫·科波菲尔凭借自身的努力改变了人生轨迹,实现了反转。面对困境和丑恶的人性,大卫从不逃避,总是选择坚强地应对。这怎能不令人惊叹呢?而小说中各个人物的结局也让我明白:邪恶之人必将得的应有的惩罚,善良之人终归会有美好的归宿。就像我们国家的一句老话“善有善报,恶有恶报”,“正义也许会迟到但绝不会缺席”。

我不由得想起当下全球面临的共同危机。目前,新冠病毒如同魔鬼不断地肆虐全球。每个国家都应该团结起来,共同抵抗病魔。可以美国为首的西方资本主义国家却在人民生死存亡之际,不顾人民安危,乱搞政治阴谋。他们借病毒溯源污蔑抹黑中国,不停煽动仇华情绪,以掩盖他们抗疫不力的事实。虽然世卫调查组的专家还给了中国清白,但美国总统拜登居然还大言不惭的让中情局90天内拿出疫情源头是中国的证据。这是罔顾事实,无耻的政治操弄!

他们的恶行导致本国感染新冠的人数超过了3500万,死亡人数达到了六十多万。这不单单是冰冷的数据,每个数字背后都连着一个个活生生的家庭,不知道还会出现多少个像大卫一样的孤儿。对比之下,作为生活在中国的我深感无比的幸福与安全!我们中国依靠顽强的毅力第一个走出困境,并积极向其他国家伸出援助之手:捐口罩、捐呼吸机、捐疫苗,派遣专业的医疗援助团队,帮助更多国家尽快走出困境。这种“知恩图报、投桃报李”的行为让中国在全世界收获了极大的赞誉。当美国政客还想利用各种阴谋攻击污蔑中国时,有很多国家看清了美国的丑恶嘴脸,纷纷为中国“站队”。

“善有善报,恶有恶报”,希望每个人都有“大卫·科波菲尔”精神,能在人生的至暗时刻,以善良坚强、积极乐观的心态面对一切风浪,以纯洁友爱的内心帮助他人渡过难关。最终,幸福温暖的阳光一定会照亮前行的路!

这个寒假,我读了《大卫·科波菲尔》这部的文学名著。我回味无穷,回看大卫那像长河般的岁月故事,实在是别有一番滋味在心头。

大卫,是一个没有爸爸的可怜孩子,从小便与他的妈妈相依为命,很可怜,很可怜。不仅如此,在大卫的童年里,还有许多恐惧与憎恨,这些不良因素是从哪里产生的呢?是从大卫的继父——谋得斯通姐弟俩的手中产生的。我憎恨这两个坏东西,是他们俩联手制造了混乱与恐惧,还使大卫的母亲,在恐惧中离开了这个没有希望的世界。大卫悲痛欲绝,我也不禁潸然泪下。噢,对了,大卫妈妈的离世,让大卫家的女仆佩格蒂也悲痛万分。

还在大卫妈妈活着时,那两个坏东西就将大卫送进了以严肃闻名的萨伦学校。大卫在这个学校受尽了苦难,也认识了一个后来的好朋友——特雷格尔。我对这位新朋友很同情,因为他常常被老师们殴打。

大卫的妈妈死去后,大卫被送去谋得斯通——格林比货行里当童工,大卫受不了折磨,跑到了他的姨婆家里。他的姨婆十分果断地收留了他,还送他到一家很有名气的学校学习。毕业后,大卫当了律师,我很高兴,也为大卫骄傲。

随后,大卫还与斯潘洛家的那朵小花——朵拉结了婚,我很惊讶,大卫还这么小,怎么可能会结婚呢?后来,我才了解到,原来外国人都是很小就结婚的,这才让我放下心来。但是,上天又给了大卫一个毁灭性的打击——朵拉与小狗吉卜手拉手地走了,大卫又一次陷入到死亡的悲痛中,太可惜了!

大卫经过了一段时间的消沉,终于从痛苦中恢复了过来,他又爱上了爱格妮斯,这使我逐渐对大卫失去了一些好感,因为他有些多情!

大卫最终与爱格妮斯举行了婚礼!他们之间的爱,逐渐根深蒂固。爱格妮斯不仅爱他,还默默地支持他,使大卫的学习又进步了,并且帮助大卫最终成为一名,赫赫有名的作家,我既羡慕他,也真心地祝愿他们能够白头偕老,平平安安!

我想到了大卫的一生,被爱包围着,温暖与幸福也守护着他。但是,我从大卫身上看到,只有用双手去创造幸福,才会更加幸福!这就是幸福之真谛!

这就是《大卫·科波菲尔》,我希望有更多的人,来感受这部巨著的辉煌!

Shakspere (wrong spelling) created Hamlet--a man with wisdom and courage .In order to revenge on his uncle for killing his father, he pretented (spelling mistake) to be mad and suffered a series of misery. On the contrary, we can also say that Hamlet is rude and selfish for he did not think twice before his revenge . if (Capitalize "If" since it is the beginning word of the sentence.) a country has no king, how can a country keep alive (You need a question mark here since it is a question.) So, every thing has two sides, the bright side and adumbral side. Every time we make a decision we have to think twice.

Comment:

Be careful with your spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Too many uncessary mistakes.It is good that you looked at both the dark and bright sides of Hamlet. Thats quite objective and convincing.

篇14:格列佛游记英文读后感

one of the most interesting questions about gullivers travels is whether the houyhnhnms represent an ideal of rationality or whether on the other hand they are the butt of swifts satire. in other words, in book iv, is swift poking fun at the talking horses or does he intend for us to take them seriously as the proper way to act? if we look closely at the way that the houyhnhnms act, we can see that in fact swift does not take them seriously: he uses them to show the dangers of pride.

first we have to see that swift does not even take gullver seriously. for instance, his name sounds much like gullible, which suggests that he will believe anything. also, when he first sees the yahoos and they throw excrement on him, he responds by doing the same in return until they run away. he says, "i must needs discover some more rational being," even though as a human he is already the most rational being there is. this is why swift refers to erasmus darwins discovery of the origin of the species and the voyage of the beagle-to show how gulliver knows that people are at the top of the food chain. but if lemule gulliver is satirized, so are the houyhnhnms, whose voices sound like the call of castrati. they walk on two legs instead of four, and seem to be much like people. as gulliver says, "it was with the utmost astonishment that i witnessed these creatures playing the flute and dancing a vienese waltz. to my mind, they seemed like the greatest humans ever seen in court, even more dextrous than the lord edmund burke" . as this quote demonstrates, gulliver is terribly impressed, but his admiration for the houyhnhnms is short-lived because they are so prideful. for instance, the leader of the houyhnhnms claims that he has read all the works of charles dickens, and that he can singlehandedly recite the names of all the kings and queens of england up to george ii. swift subtly shows that this houyhnhnms pride is misplaced when, in the middle of the intellectual competition, he forgets the name of queen elizabeths husband.

swifts satire of the houyhnhnms comes out in other ways as well. one of the most memorable scenes is when the dapple grey mare attempts to woo the horse that guenivre has brought with him to the island. first she acts flirtatiously, parading around the bewildered horse. but when this does not have the desired effect, she gets another idea: "as i watched in amazement from my perch in the top of a tree, the sorrel nag dashed off and returned with a yahoo on her back who was yet more monstrous than mr. pope being fitted by a clothier. she dropped this creature before my nag as if offering up a sacrifice. my horse sniffed the creature and turned away." it might seem that we should take this scene seriously as a failed attempt at courtship, and that consequently we should see the grey mare as an unrequited lover. but it makes more sense if we see that swift is being satiric here: it is the female houyhnhnm who makes the move, which would not have happened in eighteenth-century england. the houyhnhm is being prideful, and it is that pride that makes him unable to impress gullivers horse. gulliver imagines the horse saying, sblood, the notion of creating the bare backed beast with an animal who had held mr. pope on her back makes me queezy .

a final indication that the houyhnmns are not meant to be taken seriously occurs when the leader of the houynhms visits lilliput, where he visits the french royal society. he goes into a room in which a scientist is trying to turn wine into water (itself a prideful act that refers to the marriage at gallilee). the scientist has been working hard at the experiment for many years without success, when the houyhnmn arrives and immediately knows that to do: "the creature no sooner stepped through the doorway than he struck upon a plan. slurping up all the wine in sight, he quickly made water in a bucket that sat near the door" .

he has accomplished the scientists goal, but the scientist is not happy, for his livelihood has now been destroyed. swifts clear implication is that even though the houyhnhmns are smart, they do not know how to use that knowledge for the benefit of society, only for their own prideful agrandizement.

throughout gullivers travels, the houyhnhms are shown to be an ideal gone wrong. though their intent might have been good, they dont know how to do what they want to do because they are filled with pride. they mislead gulliver and they even mislead themselves. the satire on them is particularly well explained by the new born houyhnhm who, having just been born, exclaims, "with this sort of entrance, what must i expect from the rest of my life!" .

《大卫·科波菲尔》通过主人公大卫一生的悲欢离合,多层次地揭示了当时社会的真实面貌,突出地表现了金钱对婚姻、家庭和社会的腐蚀作用。小说中一系列悲剧的形成都是金钱导致的。摩德斯通骗娶大卫的母亲是觊觎她的财产;爱弥丽的私奔是经受不起金钱的诱惑;威克菲尔一家的痛苦,海穆的绝望,无一不是金钱造成的恶果。而卑鄙小人希普也是在金钱诱惑下一步步堕落的,最后落得个终身监禁的可耻下场。狄更斯正是从人道主义的思想出发,暴露了金钱的罪恶,从而揭开“维多利亚盛世”的美丽帷幕,显现出隐藏其后的社会真相。

我对这本书中感到最为亲密的莫过于大卫先生的朋友们了,这些都使我在看到你遭受的苦难而心凉感到一丝慰藉,对于大卫那位特殊的朋友斯提福兹的问题,我与大卫的看法却似乎有着原则性的分歧,也许这是我思想的局限所致,没办法,请勿怪。不错,他对萨伦学校那位只靠毒打为教育手段的无知的暴君校长克里古尔是唯一具有反抗和震慑能力的人,也是让大卫免遭同学欺负和耍戏的恩人般的角色。但是,他所犯下的罪恶与他所行善事不可相提并论,二者也是不能抵消的,即使能够相互抵消,剩下的肯定是很大的负数。

The Scarlet Letter offers an extraordinary insight into the norms and behavior of the 17th century if American Puritan society.The basic conflicts and problems of its main characters,however,are familiar to readers in the present.The female protagonist,has borne a child out of wedlock and has been jailed for over three months and sentenced to wear a symbol of her adultery,a scarlet “A” on her dress at all times.It concerns about the moral,emotional and psychological effect of the sin on people in general.It’s not simply a love story or a story of sin.The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne uses the scarlet letters to symbolize the harshness of Puritan society,showing how they brand sinners for life.

The story happened in Boston about 200 years ago.It narrates love affairs between three persons.The punished woman.Hester Prynne and his husband.Who called himself Roger Chillingworth .He is an old misshapen man and a doctor.Hester does not love him at all.Another man is a young minister,Dimmesdale,who has a high position among ministers and is highly respected among his people in town.Hester and Dimmesdale love each other.But their love is forbidden in that time .It is sinful.Due to this,Hester is punished by society with a letter A on her chest,which considered an evil,a shame.

In this novel,the mainline seems to be around the letter A.Hester is brave enough to face the cruel reality.She is always with a mind of courage.She has been alone with her child for so long ,with litter communication.Shame!Hopelessness!Loneliness!Hester has to wear the letter A day after day,seven years as for punishment and ill fame.

When a woman has lived through a difficult experience,her character changes a great deal.If she be all tenderness,she will die.If she survive,the tenderness will leave her .Hester’s charitable deeds and quiet humility have earned her a reprieve from the scorn of the community.The letter on her chest represents her work on earth ,always helping others,without expecting any thanks.Never afterwards,does that scarlet letter leave her chest.The townspeople no longer view the letter as a punishment ,but rather as representing her great strength and bravery and thy say it means “Able”.

But Arthur Dimmesdale,his sin against Hester and Pearl is that he will not acknowledge them as his wife and daughter in the daylight.He keeps his dreadful secret from all those under his care in the church for seven years for fear that he will lose their love and will not be forgiven.He is too weak to admit his sins.He suffers from mysterious heart trouble,seemingly caused by psychological distress.What’s worse,he is an advisor to the townspeople about their sins.

After Mr.Dimmesdale’s death ,no one changes more in appearance than Roger Chilling worth.All his strength and energy has been used to harm his patient .This unhappy man has made his aim in life to add to the suffering of the young minister.When the evil old man no longer has such a purpose,the devil takes him back to the hell .It is a curious subject of observation,however,whether hatred or love are not of the same place.Each takes a great deal of emotion from one person.The two feelings seem basically the same,expect that one is smiled upon by God,while the other is worshipped by the devil.

雾都孤儿》以雾都伦敦为背景,讲述了一个孤儿悲惨的身世及遭遇。以下是小编带来的雾都孤儿英文读后感,希望对你有帮助。

Oliver Twist is written by Charles Dickens.

Charles Dickens is one of the greatest writers in the England. He was born in a poor family, but later he became famous and rich. The famous novel --A Tale of Two Cities is written by him, too.

This novel shows us the cruelty and crime of London. Oliver Twist, the hero, is a poor orphan. He lived in a life filled with taunts. Nobody loved him. With visions of his future, he decided to go to London. He thought a new life was coming, but he was wrong, a group of thieves were waiting for him.

The author created a group of bad men.

Fagin, an old man, with a horribly ugly face and red hair, was the head of those thieves. He tried to make Oliver be a criminal.

Bill Sikes was a cruel and evil man in the group. He had a bad

Monks, Oliver’s brother, did bad things to hurt Oliver. He wanted to get the legacies left by his father alone. He paid Fagin to trap Oliver into a life of crime. In fact, they were all afraid of being put into prison and being hanged. They can’t live happily.

Nancy, a poor girl, loved a bad man. She had to help Bill Sikes perpetrate, because she loved him. She had to be loyal to the criminal group, because she loved him. Actually, she was kind. She helped Oliver at the risk of her life. If she hadn’t fell in love with Sikes, she would have a happy ending.

The author showed these ugly things to us, he described an ugly world. But there are more kind people in the novel.

Mr. Brownlow, an old friend of Oliver’s father, took good care of Oliver.

Mrs. Maylie, Harry Maylie’s mother, saved Oliver of his life.

Miss Rose is the aunt of Oliver, in fact.

They all protect Oliver from hurt.

Oliver was unlucky to meet so many evil people, but he was luckier to get help from so many kind people.

In the end of the novel, all the evil people were punished. Oliver got what he should get. Rose married Harry Maylie and they lived happily. All the kind people have a happy ending.

Righteousness can always beat evil. I think this is what the author wants to tell. Although there are many ugly things in the world, we must believe that righteousness can always beat evil.

We must store kindness even though we are in ugly situation. One is poor if he doesn’t have kindness. One is rich if he has kindness. So please store your kindness in your mind.

What’s more, the novel also tells us to be brave. Oliver was brave enough to overcome all the problems he had met. No matter how difficult the problem is, we can’t give up, we must try our best to solve it.

From Oliver Twist , I have learnt a lot .It’s really a good novel.

The Scarlet Letter attained an immediate and lasting success because it addressed spiritual and moral issues from a uniquely American standpoint. In 1850, adultery was an extremely risqué subject, but because Hawthorne had the support of the New England literary establishment, it passed easily into the realm of appropriate reading. It has been said that this work represents the height of Hawthornes literary genius; dense with terse descriptions. It remains relevant for its philosophical and psychological depth, and continues to be read as a classic tale on a universal theme.[6] Another consideration to note having to do with the books popularity is that it was one of the first mass-produced books in America. Into the mid-nineteenth century, bookbinders of home-grown literature typically hand-made their books and sold them in small quantities. The first mechanized printing of "The Scarlet Letter," 2,500 volumes, sold out immediately, was widely read and discussed to an extent not much experienced in the young country up until that time. Copies of the first edition are often sought by collectors as rare books, and may fetch up to around $6,000 USD.
