《老人与海》英文读后感(实用20篇)

海是调皮的顽童，它有时平波如镜，有事掀起狂潮巨浪，与正真的勇士试比高下。人的精神是无形的，它可以深藏在人们内心里一动不动，也可以一触即发，用它难以形容的威力与恶势力作斗争。

一位以打渔为生的老人，一望无际的大海，就算是正值壮年的男子汉在大海面前都显得那么微不足道，更何况是一位老人？又有谁能像那位老人一样与几十条鲨鱼作战，是什么力量促使老人去战斗呢？是精神，是顽强不屈的精神。

可以消灭一个人，就是打不垮他，这是给我印象最深的一句话。老人回到岸上，他什么也没有得到，就连渔网鱼叉也没有了，他输了吗？没有，他是最后的胜利者，他的精神战胜了一切，因为精神是世上唯一无法战胜的。即使一无所获仍旧坚持不懈地为自己的目标而奋斗，不正是《老人与海》给我们的启示吗？

一个人一旦拥有了这种精神，他就是这个世上最勇敢的人，不可战胜的人。是的，的确可以战胜一个人，但就是大不挎它，或许那些所谓的“胜利者”会赢得某些人的掌声，但在人们内心深处有种声音在说：“你们的胜利是最可悲的！”为什么我们的英雄在战场上可以无所畏惧，为什么我们的勇士在刑场上可以昂首挺胸呢？因为人类不可泯灭的精神，是无法战胜的正义。

我们应该歌颂那些古今中外拥有这种精神的人。

《雾都孤儿》是狄更斯第一部社会小说，小说中“奥利弗要求添粥”一节已被编入多种英语教科书中。以下是小编带来的雾都孤儿英文读后感，希望对你有帮助。

Here I am sitting on a couch alone thinking about what I have just finished reading with tears of sadness filling my eyes and fire of indignation filling my heart which revived my exhausted soul that has already been covered by the cruelty and the selfishness of the secular world for a long time. It is truly what I felt after reading Oliver Twist written by the prominent British author Charles Dickens.

The resonance between me and the book makes me feel not only the kindness and the wickedness of all the characters in the novel but what this aloof society lacks and what I lack deep inside. These supreme resources I’m talking about right now are somewhat different from minerals oil that we usually mention. They’re abstract like feelings and some kinds of spiritual stimulation that all of us desire anxiously from one another —— love and care.

Those charitable figures whom Dickens created in the novel are really what we need in life. They showed love and care to others just as the gentle rain from the sky fell upon the earth which was carved into my heart deeply.

Mr. Brownlow is one such person.

The other day he had one of his elaborate watches stolen by two skilled teenage thieves Artful Dodger and Charley Bates and thought naturally it was Oliver who was an orphan and forced to live with a gang of thieves that had done it because he was the only one near by after the theft had taken place. Being wrathful he caught Oliver and sent him to the police station where the ill-tempered unfair magistrates worked. Fortunately for him Oliver was proved innocent by one onlooker afterwards. With sympathy Mr. Brownlow took the injured poor Oliver to his own home. There Oliver lived freely and gleefully for some months as if he were Mr. Brownlow’s own son. One day however Mr. Brownlow asked Oliver to return some books to the bookseller and to send some money for the new books that he had already collected. The thief Oliver once stayed with kidnapped him. After that he disappeared in Mr. Brownlow’s life. Searching for a while Mr. Brownlow had to believe the fact that he had run away with his money. But dramatically they came across each other again a few years later. Without hesitation Mr. Brownlow took Oliver home for the second time not caring if he had done something evil.

Perhaps most of us would feel confused about Mr. Brownlow’s reaction. But as a matter of fact this is just the lesson we should learn from him. Jesus said in the Bible. “Forgive not seven times but seventy-times seven.” Why is that? Because forgiveness is our ability to remove negative thoughts and neutralize them so our energy may be spent on doing what we came here for. We cannot move forward in our future if past issues cloud our thinking. Stop put Mr. Brownlow into the list of your models. Always give people a second chance no matter what they might have done. That’s also a substantial part of loving and caring others.

Then there are Mrs. Maylie and Rose Oliver’s other benefactors. Maybe the reason they loved and cared Oliver was not because of forgiveness. In my point of view it was trust. They had faith in Oliver when he was considered to be a filthy burglar who tried to break the front door of Maylie’s at midnight. But this wasn’t how these two ladies saw the whole thing. They denied Oliver’s crime immediately and listened attentively to Oliver’s own description of his miserable life. They were deeply touched by Oliver’s strong perseverance and astonishing vitality. Accordingly they remedied Oliver’s body and heart and turned him into a different boy. He began to wear appropriate and clean suits which were tailor-made for him and receive education.

As far as we can see it is trust that helps us all live together without precaution. Sometimes trust can even lead us to miracles which we often expect to come about so why not trust? Trust yourself trust others and you’ll salute miracles every single day.

In the novel though the young Oliver again and again fell for conspiracies of those hideous thieves who tried to torture Oliver’s body and poisoned Oliver’s heart intensely he always lived on and tried hard to seek for his own life. Then I realized what supported him all through were actually beliefs. In most cases what you believe is what you’ll become. Believe that you are unlimited that you can do anything you commit to doing and when you do your accomplishments will know no bounds. You control your beliefs and that is how you ultimately control your life. It’s all dictated by your attitude.

In the final analysis love and care contain numerous forms there are love of forgiveness love of trust etc. but they all come from your beliefs in life. When someone tells you he’s deceived you forgive him anyway when someone tells you what he’s done trust him anyway and when you face adversities while chasing your dreams think about your beliefs then what hinders you will become a piece of cake in no time.

So find out “Olivers” in your life and do as Mr. Brownlow and Mrs. Maylie do: love them and care them which cost nothing but save much. They enrich those who receive without impoverishing those who give. They can be certain smallest words or actions but the memory of them sometimes last forever.

Charles Dickens said:“Love makes the world go around.” These immortal words have inspired and will keep on inspiring us to chant the melody of love and to say the prayer of care forevermore. Let us therefore enjoy life and treat other people lovingly. These principles are the roots and foundations of beliefs supporting this article and our mission together.

导语：《瓦尔登湖》梭罗在书中详尽地描述了他在瓦尔登湖湖畔一片再生林中度过两年又两月的生活以及期间他的许多思考。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!

read through some of the more than half of the "walden pond", to be honest look at a lot of paragraphs do not really understand, but say it is fun sections of animals that people read fresh.

the first animal is the rooster attention, and that the most common birds, however the authors pen in the air all of a sudden and very poor. thoreau is the author described them this way: the rooster, pheasant was originally, and their chirping is the worlds most beautiful music, better than all the other animals, but most of the time to fill the gaps in their voice is their wife - the mother chickens are noisy, its no wonder that they ultimately can only be the poultry, not to mention what kind of a chicken egg. these words can not help people desperately want to remember the music chenming rooster, the result was a loss, except in writing from the mechanical "oo" sound. as for the hen, they can only remember them after the end of each time it is under the "giggle" to stop the called.

walden pond, how can there are so many wild animal? every day it seems that the author and not the name they say hello. are familiar with ant, but where the ants are like the soldiers how to ah, make that an ant war was afraid to read the small bio of contempt. lovely fledgling partridge destitute people, they only obey the instinct of mothers and their own oh, the fullness of their long feathers of the body of small branches and leaves together to maintain the same posture, where to stay motionless, it picked up when a stranger or follow it, it continues to stay as motionless, or take your eyes clean. scary, of course, most diving birds, and it always sent laugh, when it is from this lake first dive, the observer much hunting or after a lot of fun. what it is, you can go to the bottom of the lake to fish in the bird.

after all the human animal is, ah, just high-level animals. the author predicted that the result of human progress must be to give up meat, as the savage to the civilized around after people give up bad habits, like eating. i do not know human beings are not one day give up meat, it is very curious about the rabbit call. in the book, the author said: rabbit to the end, the truth was a child cry. on rabbits, the most profound impression that the tree hit a hare, but there is no written record of our had been a poor hunt rabbits.

​【参考译文】

阅读一些超过一半的“《瓦尔登湖》”,诚实地看很多段落并不真正理解,但说它是有趣的部分动物,人们读新鲜。

第一只动物是公鸡的注意,而最常见的鸟,然而作者的笔在空中突然和非常贫穷。摘要:梭罗是作者这样描述的:公鸡,野鸡,他们的鸣叫是世界上最美丽的音乐,比所有其他动物都好,但大部分时间是他们的妻子-妈妈的鸡吵闹,难怪他们最终只能是家禽,更不用说什么鸡了。这些话不能帮助人们迫切想记住的音乐公鸡,结果是一个损失,除了书面从机械的“oo”声音。至于母鸡,他们只能记住他们在每次结束后,它是在“咯咯”的“咯咯”停止呼叫。

《瓦尔登湖》,怎么能有这么多野生动物?每天似乎作者,而不是他们说的名字。对蚂蚁很熟悉,但是蚂蚁就像士兵一样如何啊,使蚂蚁战争害怕阅读轻视的小生物。可爱的羽翼未丰的鹧鸪的人,他们只服从母亲的本能和自己的俄亥俄州,身体的长的和叶子的丰满,保持着相同的姿势,在那里别动,当一个陌生人或跟随它时,它继续保持不动,或者把你的眼睛干净。可怕,当然,大多数潜水,它总是发出笑声,当它是来自这个湖的第一次潜水,观察员很多狩猎或之后很多乐趣。它是什么,你可以到湖底去钓鱼。

毕竟人类的动物是啊,只是高级动物.作者预测,人类进步的结果必须是放弃肉食,正如野蛮对待文明的人之后,人们放弃坏习惯,如吃饭。我不知道人类没有一天不放弃肉,它对兔子的叫声很好奇。在书中,作者说:兔子到最后,真理是一个孩子的哭声。对兔子来说,最深刻的印象是树撞上了一只野兔,但没有我们曾经是一个可怜的兔子的书面记录。

这是一本非常深刻的书，里面的内容也很符合我的口味。

一位老人常年独自在海上打鱼。有一次，他钓到了一条大鱼，但是在返回的路上遇到了成群的鲨鱼。老人使出浑身解数和鲨鱼搏斗，可鲨鱼把能吃的肉全吃完了，老人拖回家的只是一副大鱼的骨架。

这就是《老人与海》。老人没有被任何困难压服，他尽自己最大的努力与生活中的磨难做不屈不挠的斗争。他说过一句话：“一个人不是生来就要被打败的，你可以消灭他，却不能打败他。”这种永不言败的精神感动着并激励着我们每一个人。

我十分喜欢书中的老人。他勇敢、自信、自强。我心目中的老人是这个样子的：有一把大胡子，一件夹克衫、一顶黑色的渔夫帽和一条破旧的裤子，就像一个坚强的战士。

读了《老人与海》这本书，我明白了许多道理，这本书主要讲述的是：有一位名叫圣地亚哥的老渔夫已经八十四天没有捕到鱼了，起初还有一个孩子陪着他，但老人老了后，运气越来越差，捕不到鱼了，老人怕连累小孩，便自己一人离开了家，于是他便出海打鱼，有一条大马林鱼上钩了，进过了整整三天的较量，老人终于杀死了那条鱼，可不幸的是他返航的时候，遭到了鲨鱼的袭击，老人的鱼肉被鲨鱼一口一口的咬掉，一口一口的咬掉，老人的心越来越重，尽自己最大的努力保护着鱼肉，但是鱼肉还是在一点一点的减少，老人很伤心，等他回家的时候，鱼肉已经被鲨鱼咬光了，就只剩下鱼头鱼尾和光秃秃的鱼骨了，孩子发现了老人，被老人感动。

在这本书中，我最欣赏老人的坚强和努力，虽然他只带回来了鱼骨头，但是他终究与这条硕大的大马林鱼战斗过，并且也得到过。

我也很欣赏大马林鱼的勇气，他知道自己别人类捉住了，但是他还是尽力向前游了三天三夜，虽然最后失败了。

我们也要学习他们这种永不言败的精神，他们在危急时刻还与对方斗智斗勇，直到最后一刻。

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 grandfather"s 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. Yes, dark past, the dawn will always come, as long as you still maintain the confidence that something is immortal, has all the treasure, then your light will come, because you know how to cherish.

Some time ago， I read a persons fame Khvostov of as "Uncle Toms cabin." Integrity， good-natured， religious Uncle Tom; prudent， smart， studious Mestizo slave George; inexcusable ruthless slave traders Hailey; destroys human nature， conscience ruined the alegre; a sense of justice， but drift， such as the St. Clair lifelike characters left me a deep impression on him.

Her owner exhausted all ways to punish her， education， she tried to change her bad habits， but to no avail， this is only because there is no love!

Think about it! This was lovely child， born into slavery， she belonged to them all the only masters of the so-called masters of her fate. Her childhood on his masters scolding to grow up， so she formed the habit of lying， bad habit of stealing things， and that she was beautiful， tarnished the purity of heart. In this there is no dignity， experiencing being separated from being whipped all day circumstances， how can we have a noble moral character and firm in faith? Only pure， beautiful， selfless love can save her soul! When the angelic Eva to her love of her time，TOM eyes cast the tears that her heart has been ray of sunshine of love. Sure enough， after the changeTOM Well， her efforts to care for others. This is the punishment， not preaching Forever effect， full of love beyond all words! This is the power of love!

In our lives， there are many like TOM as children. Their bad behavior， there is no love， will not listen to reason， then do not hate him， to understand with love， tolerance， stripped away a layer of green shoots yellow things， with love to the hearts of probation numb. We should always remember; the power of love is enormous， and the supreme! "Uncle Toms cabin" This masterpiece has been published in 150 years， it has been able to make today is still deeply moved by readers， but also because the author in the book preached brotherhood and humanity in the disappearance of slavery today has been the eternal pursuit of mankind.

《德伯家的苔丝》是哈代的代表作，是“威塞克斯系列”中的一部。它描写了一位农村姑娘的悲惨命运。看过这部小说后你有什么感触呢?下面是小编为大家整理的英文读后感范文，希望对你有帮助。

She was seduced by a so-called gentleman—Alec, and from then on her life totally changed from this loss of innocence. People looked down on her and respected her no more. Actually she did nothing wrong because before she was seduced she knew nothing of men. She was just a girl when she first met that terrible man.

She was forced by the gossips and the church to blame herself for this accident, so she thought she deserved nothing good. In order to get rid of the past she decided to go to a distant dairy farm but was still saying to herself that she was wrong. Maybe God didn’t agree with that, because the Lord gave her someone she loved with her whole heart and life—Angel Chare. Angel popped the question to her but she refused him without saying why. She said she loved him deeply and perhaps no one in the world could love him more than she did but she could not marry him for some unspoken reason. Angel wasn’t satisfied with this vague answer and did his best to win Tess. Somehow she agreed and they soon fixed the wedding day. Soon after their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked for Tess’s forgiveness. Tess was not at all angry and forgave Angel at once; in fact she was rather happy and excited for she also had things to confess.

She sat and told everything to Angel, hoping he would forgive her as he was forgiven but she was wrong. She was not forgiven, not as she thought she was. The woman pays.

Without Angel’s love, nothing meant anything to her. The result wasn’t important now. Tess was arrested for her murder of that so-called gentleman. Why? She still loved Angel and when he finally went back to her and asked for HER forgiveness, after he regretted what he had done unfair to Tess, she was desperate. That was too late—Alec had always told Tess that Angel would never come back so he won Tess’s trust. Unluckily Angel did come back and found Tess.! Everything was too late!

Tess was deceived and she lost Angel for the second time! The strengh of her love was so strong that she had forgotten the difference between right and wrong. Before that she had done nothing wrong but when she killed Alec, everything really changed! She became a criminal! How could it be? She was as pure and innocent as the good wife in the Bible. Her whole character was honest and faithful. Angel figured out at last that a person should be judged not only on what he has done but also on what he wanted to do!

Tess didn’t want to be seduced by man and she had no power to defend herself so she lost her innocence and that’s all! Angel also did the wrong thing and it was even more serious than Tess’s crime but HE was not blamed for it. Why it is always the woman who pays? Why they are always hurt? Why was Tess’s girlish purity lost? Why does the wrong man take the wrong woman? Why do the bad often ruin the good? Why is beauty damaged by ugliness? Women are too weak! Thousands of years of history have shown us that women have always been treated unfairly!

In old China there was a culture, which didn’t think of women as human beings. If you asked one if he was the oldest in his family, he would probably answer “the oldest one” even if he had some elder sisters. If you asked why then he would say, “Ha, they are not included!”

People gave birth to many girls in order to have only one boy to keep the family name going. They thought girls had no use for the family. They would be married and go to live with their husbands’ home and be their wives some day sooner or later. So they were extremely hard on girls.

Girls should be hard working, faithful, loyal, intelligent, and virtuous and the most important thing was she must be a maiden! If her husband was the first man who touched her then she was a good girl, a good wife no matter how she thought. If she wasn’t, then she would gain a very bad reputation and nobody would dare to go near her. What about men? People did not care whether he was an experienced man or not, nor did they care about his character. They thought man equals power and power equals rights…

Now let’s not be so bitter. Nowadays women’s situations have become much better. Some are because of the change of society and some are because of civilization. Just let those poor painful women like TESS be just a memory.

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.

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" .

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.

“一个人并不是生来就要给打败的，你尽可以消灭他，却不能打败他。”这句话出自文学巨匠海明威先生的《老人与海》中，正是因为有这种不败的意志，才造就了老人两天两夜捕到一条长十八尺，重一千五百磅的马林鱼的成功之路。因为不败，所以永恒。

当这本书买到手的时候，我便迫不及待地开始阅读起来，尽情的感受着海明威先生所带给我们的人生真谛。文中的主人公桑迪亚哥不仅是一个渔夫，更是一个两鬓斑白的老人。在与恶劣环境和凶猛的鲨鱼的斗争中，老人一次次的告诉自己，鼓励自己，坚定自己的意志，不向困难妥协，向我们展示着那股不畏困难的硬汉气魄。在现实中，他虽然失败了，但在精神上，他却是胜利者，他那顽强搏击的精神，展示了人的高贵和尊严。书很快就读完了，但老人桑迪亚哥的精神却一直感染着我，为我前进的道路上点上了一盏明灯。

困难并不可怕，但要有信心和坚强的意志，在困难面前不妥协，一切都会迎刃而解。塞内加曾说过：“只要持续地努力，不懈地奋斗，就没有征服不了的东西。”老人在与困难斗争的过程中，大马林鱼一点点的被鲨鱼吃掉，但老人却没有放弃斗争，就算最后已经筋疲力尽了，却一直坚持，直至最后成功回到岸边。当我们遇到困难时，为什么不能像老人桑迪亚哥一样，勇敢的去面对呢?所以当我们遇到困难和不幸时，与其独自唉声叹气，不如鼓起勇气，像老人一样，用智慧和意志征服那看似坚不可摧的“鲨鱼”。

1999年的阿里巴巴创办者马云，对梦想从不放弃。他曾经想考重点小学，但却失败了;考重点中学也失败了;考大学更是考了三年才考上;想念哈佛大学也没有成功。但他有坚持不懈，勇往直前的精神，俗话说：“宝剑锋从磨砺出，梅花香自苦寒来。”他通过自已的努力，最终成功了。他说：梦想，要脚踏实地，和眼泪是息息相关的。马云在困难面前，没有放弃，尽管失败了很多次，最终却取得了意想不到的成功，可谓“许多次失败总会造就一次成功”。他如同老人桑迪亚哥一般，以常人所没有的刚毅的意志和胜利的信心，迎来了属于自己的辉煌。

遇到困难，总是一味地退缩，终将会被社会所淘汰。失败并不可怕，可怕的是没有斗争到底的决心。当你将一切困难踩在脚下时，站在人生的山顶上，回望脚下的困难，都将变得渺小。

老人最后虽然只得到了一副鱼的骨架，但是他却坚定了自己不败的决心;他那硬汉般的气魄，必将得到永恒!

These days Ive just finished the novel Uncle Toms Cabin that left a really deep impression on me and we can see.

It is a book written in 1852 in response to the passage of the Fugitive Slave Law， Uncle Toms Cabin has been considered as the most influential anti-slavery novel in that period and described by Stowe herself as a “series of sketches” describing the human cruelty of slavery， opens with a description of Arthur Shelbys Kentucky plantation during the antebellum period.

There are several impressive characters in this novel， George who is clever and brave;Harry， a beautiful and talented child who sings dances and mimes;Mrs. Shelby， a very religious woman;Sambo and Qimbo and so on. The major character Uncle Tom who was the most impressive in this novel was a devout Christian. He endured the miserable fate bravely and aroused the whites sympathy for slaves with his Christs sacrifice and the tolerance of returning good for evil. This novel focuses on the distinctive personalities of Uncle Tom deeply influenced by Christianity and the important role Uncle Toms Cabin playing on abolition; and the Significance of “Uncle Tom” to the harmonious worlds development， and the effect on modern people.

In the book， at the beginning， the author presents us a very beautiful image of a rather harmonious family who live a happy life. However， that beautiful image couldnt last long， the darkness came soon. The master of this happy family， Uncle Tom was arranged into a difficult situation. As Shelby， the not cruel master， he has incurred serious debts- prompting him sell some slaves to avoid financial ruin， so Uncle Tom， Shelbys loyal servant since childhood was sold to Mr. Haley， the slave trader. Uncle Tom remained loyal to his master， despite his betrayal and the risk of death at the cruel hands of a new master. The slaves at the plantation were very mournful， but Tom remained placid and tried to read his Bible for fort. On the steamboat to New Orleans， where Tom was to be sold， Tom befriended an angelic little girl， “Little Eva” St. Clare. Uncle Tom saved the five-year-old beauty from drowning， and she convinced her father to buy Tom for her own family. In her family， Tom enjoye.

d his life because of the girls love; Toms contentment does not last， however， because Eva soon falls ill. Dying， Eva asked Mr. St. Clare to free Tom after her death. But Mr. St. Clare is so sad by her death that he never legally freed Tom before he himself was killed trying to mediate a barroom scuffle. Mrs. St. Clare sold the slaves to settle her husbands debts and Tom was sold to Simon Legree who was so violent that beat his slaves brutally. At last， when Mr. Shelby， finally found Uncle Tom， he was almost died. After Tom was dead and buried， Shelby went back and freed his slaves.

As we all can see that Uncle Toms Cabin was an anti-slavery novel and it was even considered as one factor that caused the Civil War. In the novel， the slaves were sold from one place to another frequently， and their fate was tragic， with no exception- just like Uncle Tom， no matter he was under the control of kind masters or evil masters， he cant escape the misfortune of being sold from one master to another. We cant see any human right of them， so terrible.

As someone said， with more people realizing the inhumanity of slavery in the 19th century， slavery became one of the most important issues and it became more violent year by year in American society. However， slavery was not abolished irrevocably until ratification of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution in 1865， following the Civil War. After the passage of Fugitive Slave Act of 1850， Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote this novel Uncle Toms Cabin which publicized the evil of slavery to a wide audience.

Now we are in the 21st century， we may never e across such kind of thing. However， this book can always remind of us that there ever has existed this evil and we cant let it happen again. And “equality” 、“human right ” cant just be a slogan， we should make it e true really and always.

俗话说的好“读万卷书，行万里路。”我从小就喜欢看书，喜欢看各种类型的书。每本书我都要反复地看上两三次，每读一次都会有更深的感受，也觉得自己离作者的心更近了。其中海明威的《老人与海》是我最喜欢的一本书。

海明威是美国著名作家，《老人与海》是他的巅峰之作，曾获得过让许多人都梦寐以求的诺贝尔文学奖，他还是文坛硬汉，更是反法西斯斗士，这也是我喜欢他的原因之一。

我喜欢海明威，更喜欢他笔下的这个故事。《老人与海》讲的是一位名叫“圣地亚哥”的老渔夫在茫茫大海上，经历了84次的空手而归后的又一次出海的故事，圣地亚哥这次出海，他拼尽全力耗费了两天两夜的时间，捕了一条超级大的马林鱼，可就在返航的途中，却不幸的被一群鲨鱼袭击了。为了保护自己的劳动果实，他展开了与群鲨的生死搏斗，他拼尽最后一丝力量都没有退缩。最终，马林鱼被鲨鱼群吃的只剩下一架残骨，他筋疲力尽地拖着这条18英寸的鱼骨架回家了。老人用他强大的精神力量谱写了一曲不败的神话。

经历了84次的一无所获，但他仍然坚持出海，这是何等的毅力！面对一群饥饿的鲨鱼，他宁死也不愿放弃，而是不屈不挠的斗争到底，这是何等的勇气！正如这句话所说“一个人并不是生来要被打败的，你尽可以把他消灭掉，可就是打不败他。”这就是我对这本书爱不释手的原因。

海明威笔下的“圣地亚哥”精神，深深地震撼了我的心灵。让我明白了坚持就能成功，放弃就注定失败，而每一次的成功都需要自己迎难而上。失败并不可怕，可怕的是你那颗向失败低下的头。我要将这种精神时时放在心里，在今后的生活和学习中用来鞭策和勉励自己，让自己学会在困难面前不屈服不放弃。

寒假里，我读完了美国着名作家海明威的小说《老人与海》。这本书主要讲：一位名叫桑提亚哥的老渔夫连续84天没有捕到鱼，被别的渔夫看作失败者，可是他坚持不懈，终于钓到了一条大马林鱼。然而在返回的路上却遇到了成群结队的鲨鱼要来吃鱼肉，老人勇敢地与鲨鱼搏斗。最终，鲨鱼还是把鱼肉都吃光了，老人只拖回了一副鱼骨架。这个故事虽然情节很简单，但寓意很深刻。我非常佩服老渔夫的意志，他让我懂得了一个人必需要有坚持不懈的精神，这样才能获得成功。

《老人与海》塑造了一个经典的硬汉形象。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48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，结果大马林鱼还是被鲨鱼吃光了，老人最后拖回家的只剩下一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。

人生本来就是一种无止境的追求。它的道路漫长、艰难，而且充满坎坷，但只要自己勇敢顽强地以一颗自信的心去迎接挑战，他将永远是一个真正的胜利者！

在去年的暑假里，我看了这样的一本书——《老人与海》。

就是这样一篇文章，一位老人、一片海。一个人在一望无际的大海面前，显得多么渺小，但是他为什么可以与几十条鲨鱼进行斗争？并是肉体，是精神！永不磨灭的精神！

海是蓝色的，它如同生活，时而水平如静，时而卷起数米大浪，为与之斗争的勇士磨炼。

精神是无形的，它如同心情，可以在人的内心世界一动不动，也可以一触即发，用它难以形容的威力去抗争。

老人筋疲力尽地回到岸上，什么也没得到，相反，拥有的鱼叉、渔网也没了。他真正的输了，可同时，他赢了，他的精神是别人永不会超越的。

“可以消灭一个人，可就是打不垮他！”这是我印象最深的一句话。这句话之所以成为我认为最有价值的，是因为我想到了无数的生活实际：

一名美国的战士在枪决之前，向人们竖起来两个手指。那是V，是美国的胜利方式，刽子手见状，生气的砍下他的两根手指，他没有放弃，放开了双臂——是一个更大的V。他不顾敌人的怒火，毅然举起不肯放下，直到最后一声响彻云霄的枪声。

我国的事例不举便知，太多太多了，他们都已经长眠于地下。但有一句诗：“有的人死了，他还活着。”不正是这些战士们吗？他们的精神与青山永驻。

虽然一无所获，但是我们仍向我们的目标前行，不正是《老人与海》想告诉我们的道理吗？一旦有人有了这一种精神，他便是这个世界上不可战胜的人！

其实有的胜利是最可悲的，因为真正的胜利不是肉体，而是精神。因为人类不可磨灭的是精神，无法战胜的精神！

是的，的确可以消灭一个人，可精神却是永不可磨灭的！

阅读一本好书，就如同再做一次身心的光合作用，在浩浩荡荡的书海中，最吸引人的也是最令人喜爱的，便是海明威所著的《老人与海》了。

这本书写的是一个老人在经历了漫长的风雨之后，终于捕到了一条大鱼的故事。但是他最后却因为意外，失掉了那条大鱼，他非但没有感到沮丧，反而更增强了生活的信心和信念！从此，更坚定了自己的意志和步伐，用坚毅来面对生活中的风雨，用坚强来应对生命中的挑战。他的故事也给人们许多的启迪。

其实，我们在生活中缺乏的正是这种坚强的品格。有些人一遇到什么事就会退缩，其实这种事不对的做法，他们应该挺起胸脯，用坚强的意志和果敢的品质来面对这些困难和挫折，从而获得成功。文中介绍的那个小男孩也是一个非常孝顺的孩子。他虽然和这个老人素不相识，但是他却在每时每刻都帮助这个老人。其实这正是我们生活中缺乏的一种品质——关爱。

关爱，在我们生活中可谓是处处存在。但是我们现在的社会有些关爱，甚至成了利益的驱使！回想起《老人与海》老人与孩子那种淳朴的关爱之情，便使人想到了现在当今社会上那些老年人品质低下，非要和年轻人钱的种种不良事迹！所以我们更应该学会关爱协会，关心他人，这样才能在生活中更好地施展自己！

书中还有非常迷人的景色描写，以及趣味横生的对话描写，这些均表现了老人坚强的品格和顽强不屈的意志，其实这些运用到我的写作中必定能使文章增色不少！

阅读《老人与海》，更是一次心灵的享受，是一次独特的阅读体验！

暑假时，闲来无事的我读了美国著名作家海明威的小说《老人与海》。该小说主要讲述一个老渔夫与一条马林鱼的故事。文中剧情可以说的上是跌宕起伏。

文章开头描绘了一个老渔夫一连八十四天都没有钓到鱼，但是倔强的他会因此认输吗?终于在第八十五天钓到了一条身长十八尺，体重一千五磅的大马林鱼。

每当想起，风吹向空寂的海面，一个孤独的老人拖着疲惫不堪的身子，漂泊在茫茫的海面上，活像个大战后的勇士。为了制服马林鱼，他几乎没有了力气······这个老人具有了不可言败的精神力量，体现了老人那种无所畏惧的精神。

小说中老人一句话让我受益不浅，人尽可以被毁灭，但却不能被打败。也许是这句话的气势，以至于我至今记忆犹新。虽然文章的最后老人并没有胜利，尽管他最后得到的是鱼骨架子，但是她并没有感到惋惜。

这本书最让我感动的地方是老渔夫英勇的意志、坚定的决心和顽强的生命意识。他面对着一次又一次的失败，一次又一次的绝望，他不仅不气馁，还重新振作起来。他面对着大海上的残酷，并没有因此丧气，他并没有埋怨老天，埋怨任何人······

我以前是一个失败的人，不过看过了《老人与海》以后，我知道了人不是为失败而胜，人不可能轻易被失败打倒，我知道了人不仅可以创造奇迹，也可以延续“奇迹”。只要你有老渔夫的精神，明了“人不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能有被打败的信念，才能不畏困难，勇敢前行。”

在人生的道路上，我们可能会遇见许许多多的困难。我们不可能因为困难的强大而退缩，我们应该打败它，击碎它。你要相信一句话：困难越强你更强;你越弱，困难越强。虽然说困难不是轻易能被打败，但我们千万不能轻易退缩。只有在逆境中生长，才能更好的生存，相信自己，勇敢挑战自我，去主动迎接困难，让自己变得更强。在学习的时候，遇到不会的问题要相信自己，让我们充满信心，鼓起勇气，用坚持不懈的品质去迎接、战胜各种困难。

《老人与海》是一本值得每个人去看的书，让我们战胜困难，为打开成功之门一起努力吧。

合上书已经很久了，《老人与海》中曲折连环的故事情节与老人圣地亚哥明知对方力量比自己强，还是要决心战斗到底的精神已经深刻地记在我的心里。

古巴人圣地亚哥在八十四天里没有捕到任何鱼，以致于别的渔夫把他看做失败者。但他不肯认输，在第八十五天仍然下决心驾船驶向远方去钓大鱼。他独自出海，终于钓上了一条大马林鱼，在海上与这条大鱼搏斗了三天，终于将它杀死。但在返回途中却遭到鲨鱼的袭击，最后回港时只剩下鱼头鱼尾和一条脊骨。作者用这个故事表达了：“一个人不是生来要给打败的，你尽可以消灭他，可就是打不败他。”的主题。

我觉得这本书写得最精彩的地方，是老人圣地亚哥与鲨鱼搏斗的情节。

鲨鱼闻到血腥味，纷纷前来袭击大马林鱼，老人圣地亚哥用尽一切手段对鲨鱼进行反击。鱼叉被鲨鱼带走了，他把小刀绑在桨把上乱扎；刀子折断了，他就用短棍打；短棍也丢掉了，他就用舵把来打。即使鱼肉都被咬去，也无法阻拦老人的斗志、老人的英勇意志，多么令人佩服啊！

明知力量敌不过大马林鱼，却死死地抓住它不放；面对鲨鱼的攻击，能用各种工具进行反击。老人这种不怕困难、顽强拼搏、永不服输的精神，是我们这一代人最需要学习的。现代的我们都是生活在温室里的花朵，是家里的“小皇帝”、“小公主”，父母含在嘴里怕化了，捧在手里怕掉了。一个个都是衣来伸手、饭来张口，总是沉浸在父母的溺爱之中，遇到一点难题就退却；遇到一点挫折就气馁，这样怎么练就报效祖国的本领呢？生活中，挫折是必不可少的磨难。挫折并不可怕，可怕的是你没有面对挫折的勇气。成功总在风雨后，只有经历了挫折，才能体验那成功的来之不易。只要你用一颗顽强的心去对待，成功就在不远处向你招手。

《老人与海》中的主人公圣地亚哥用他的实际行动告诉我们：一个人可以被毁灭，但不能给打败。在未来的人生道路上，我们一定要做到顽强拼搏，永不放弃。

《老人与海》这本书使我受益匪浅，老人的精神让我们永生难忘。为了美好的明天，我推荐这本书，大家一起读，希望它成为青少年的励志好帮手。

老人，不像老人，像钢铁，有那样的意志；孩子，不像孩子，像海中狡黠的鲨，以谦逊和力量发家；而大海，似乎也变了，少了些平静，添了几多暗夜挣扎。

老人捉鱼，守护自己的阵地，决不让自己松懈，谨记自己的目标，不顾一切的努力。可我们呢？坚持有几分？信念有几分？是否愿意舍弃，来追求那一片属于自己的天地？

老人与鱼同行，艰难万险，几次三番鲨鱼来侵袭，老人挺住了，勇敢而顽强的活了下来，鱼，那个属于老人的巨大财富呢？消失了。千辛万苦之后，所劳所得付之东流，岂不惋惜？但老人清楚，自己还有信念，信念不垮，老人也不垮。而我们，失小则气馁，失大则绝望，实属不该，但谁让我们的信念不那么稳固呢？我们该自食其果的。

老人捕鱼之事风平浪静之后，还有谁注意着老人的心理，老人的表情，为老人无私，为老人慷慨？我们是否又可以做到，某种坚持，某种信念，挽救了某些人。
