Oliver Twist, one of the most famous works of Charles Dickens, is a novel reflecting the tragic fact of the life in Britain in 18th century.

The author who himself was born in a poor family wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks of those cruel criminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneath the narrow and dirty streets in London.

The hero of this novel was Oliver Twist, an orphan, who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime. He suffered enormous pain, such as hunger, thirst, beating and abuse. While reading the tragic experiences of the little Oliver, I was shocked by his sufferings. I felt for the poor boy, but at the same time I detested the evil Fagin and the brutal Bill. To my relief, as was written in all the best stories, the goodness eventually conquered devil and Oliver lived a happy life in the end. One of the plots that attracted me most is that after the theft, little Oliver was allowed to recover in the kind care of Mrs. Maylie and Rose and began a new life. He went for walks with them, or Rose read to him, and he worked hard at his lessons. He felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime and hardship and poverty.

How can such a little boy who had already suffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is the nature of goodness. I think it is the most important information implied in the novel by Dickens—he believed that goodness could conquer every difficulty. Although I dont think goodness is omnipotent, yet I do believe that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded.

For me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person. Goodness is to humans what water is to fish. He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person. On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person. People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself.

To my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity. They look down on peoples honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted. As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others. On the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit. In their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility. If they cannot get profit from showing theirkindness, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down. They are one of the sorts that I really detest.

Francis Bacon said in his essay, Goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin.

That is to say a person without goodness is destined to lose everything. Therefore, I, a kind person, want to tell thosevermin-to-beto learn from the kind Oliver and regain the nature of goodness.

Its a short story by O.Henry that has moved me for a long time.Maybe most of you are familar with its name,that is,The Gift of the Magi.I have read it many times but every time I like to read it slowly and deliberately.I think "The Gift of the Magi"

is meant to be savored.

Maybe there is no necessity for me to repeat the main idea of the story.But Im

so fascinated with the short story that I want to retell it yo you,and to myself.

It happened to a very poor but blissful young couple named Jim and Della in the end of 18th century in England.Because of the maladies of that society and the effect of economic crisis,they worked hard but earned little.Life is very hard for them.Despite of this,their love to each other and the enthusiasm for life didnt changed at all.When Chrismas day was approuching ,Della used the money she got from selling her beautiful hair which she treasured very much to give Jim a fob for his grandfathers pocket watch.But Jim had already sold that watch to buy Della tortoiseshell combs to wear in her long hair,not knowing shed cut it off.

It appears that the gifts they gave each other have been useless.But I think they gave each other the best of what they had to make the other happy.Isnt that true love?We can image,in such rough conditions,as it said in the story,"Life is made up of sobs,sniffles,and smiles,with sniffles predominating."Itst absolute reasonable for them to be beaten by the misery.But the fact is that no matter how tough life had been,they wouldt lose heart.With strong faith and their love ,they did their best to make the other pleased."Whennever Mr. James came home and reached his flat ,above he was called Jimand greatly hugged by Mrs. James."Maybe this account is the best description of their love and struggle against hard life.It was said that the povertier life is ,the firmer and truer love is."Actually,theyd given the very best they had out of love.

"They are too foolish children in a flat,who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house.But in a last word,to the wise of these days,let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest."Said the writer in the last paragraph.Yes,they are wisest.They are the magi.Are there any reasons for us not to show respect for the young couple?

I remind my grandparents.They have spent fifty years together.No romantic words,no stirring behaviours,just comman even pedestrian life.But I can say love exists in every detail of their life.They have gone through war period,three years natural disasters,cultural revolution and so on.But no matter what happens,they are always considering for the other.Even now both of them have become old step by step,they still cared about each other.My grandparents,in my opinion,is a pair of lovers forever.

Love has nothing to do with money,possession or status.Its consideration,tolerance and respect.Its giving ones best to the other even it means sacrifice.Its affection which connects two persons hearts,and its reinforced by adversities.

Struggle against adversities.Nothing did they have,at least they owened love.Never give up as long as love exists.From"The Gift of the Magi",from Jim and Della and from my grandparents,I have learned a lot about love,life and hope.

After reading "A tale of two cities"

"A tale of two cities" is one of Dickenss most important representative works.The novel profoundly exposed the society contradiction before the French Revolution,intensely attacks the aristocratic social class is dissolute and cruel,and sincerely sympathizes with the depressed classes.The novel also described many magnificent scenes like the revolt people attacked Bastille and so on,which displayed peoples great strength.

The novel has portrayed many different people. Doctor Manette is honest and kind but suffers the persecution actually ， Lucie is beautiful and gentle ，Charles is graceful and noble，Lorry is upright and honest ，Sydney is semblance of indifferent, innermost feelings of warm,unconventional but also selfless and lofty，Miss Pross is straightforward and loyal，Evremonde brothers are cruel and sinister......The complex hatred is hard to solve, the cruel revenge has made more hatreds, loves rebirth in the hell edge,but take the life as the price.

As an outstanding writer,in Dickenss work,the language skill is essential.Each kind of rhetoric technique,like the analogy,the exaggeration,the contrast,the humorous,and the taunt are handled skillfully,and the artistry of the work is also delivered the peak."A tale of two cities" has its difference with the general historical novel, its character and the main plot are all fictionalizes.With the broad real background of the French Revolution,the author take the fictional character Doctor Manettes experience as the main clue,interweaves the unjust charge, love and revenge three independences but also incident cross-correlation stories together,the plot is criss-crossed,and the clue is complex.The author use insert narrates,foreshadowing,upholstery and so many techniques,causes the structure integrity and strictness,the plot winding anxious and rich of theatrical nature,it displayed the remarkable artistic skill.the style "A tale of two cities" is solemnity and melancholy,fills indignantion,but lacks the humor of the early works.

《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.

《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.

这个寒假，我读了一本书叫《老人与海》这本书主要讲述了一位老人常年独安闲海上打鱼。有一次他掉到了一条大鱼，但是在返回的路上碰到了成群的鲨鱼。老人使出浑身解数和鲨鱼搏斗，鲨鱼把能吃的肉都吃完了，结果老人拖回去的只是一副大鱼骨架。

在生活中，我们碰到了困难，也许会迎难而上；但也会畏难止步。比如说张海迪阿姨，她小时候双脚就已经残废，但是她并没有向挫折屈服，而是以积极、乐观、自信的态度去挑战挫折。她天天把词语贴在床头、墙壁上、厨房……经过张海迪阿姨的不懈努力，她终于战胜了挫折，而且还获得了荣誉，为祖国做出了自己的贡献。鲁迅先生曾经说过：“伟大的胸怀，应该表现出这样的气概—用笑脸迎接悲惨的命运，用自信的勇气来应付自己的不幸。”是啊！当我们碰到厄运和不幸时，与其埋怨命运的不公，还不如鼓起勇气，振作精神，以刚毅的态度与厄运抗争。老人不也是这样的吗？老人没有被任何困难压倒，他尽自己最大的努力与生活中的磨难做不屈不挠的斗争。老人也说过医生令我最难忘的话：“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。”当你碰到困难时，你一定不要被挫折压倒啊！一个人的一生中不可能没有失败，但我们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。毛泽东主席曾经说过：“失败是成功之母。”曾任美国总统的林肯一生遭碰到无数次失败和打击。然而，他英勇卓绝。他从1832年失业后，他经过了13次竞选，然而有12次的竞选是失败的。他在最后一次，也就是1860年的时候林肯终于当选为美国总统，他终于成功了，这是一件多么令人兴奋的事情，他的努力终于得到了回报。

我们碰到挫折时，应该要勇敢面对，在困难面前迎难而上。我们有了这种奋不顾身、不怕困难的勇气，就有了征服困难的精神力量。正如歌德所说的：“你若失去了金钱—你只失去了一点儿；你若失去了荣誉—你就失掉了许多；你若失去了勇气—你就把一切都失去了。”

现在我们努力起来，他们永不言弃的精神感动并激励着我们每个人吧！

[寒假作文《老人与海》读后感

“一个人并不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败”。寒假里，我重新品读了海明威写的《老人与海》，走进了辽阔无垠的大海，走进了一个老渔夫的生活……。

《老人与海》讲述的是老渔夫桑地亚哥在大海上捕鱼，为了生计与大海、鲨鱼搏斗的故事。在前期的84天捕鱼中桑地亚哥一无所获，第85天他孤身一人前往深海，经过努力，终于捕到了一条大马林鱼。在返回的途中，遇到了群鲨的袭击。桑地亚哥与群鲨搏斗，用尽了仅有的工具和力气，成功赶走了鲨鱼，可他捕到的大马林鱼却被鲨鱼吃光，啃得只剩下鱼骨。

读着读着，我的脑海中不时浮现老人捕鱼过程的搏斗场景。想想自己为了一点小失败、小问题、小困难，而气急败坏，不能坚持到底的样子，我很惭愧。文中的老人虽然没有成功地保住自己的成果，但他面对种种比自己强大得多的困难，能够迎难而上，没被困难吓倒，坚持到了最后。他是一个生活的强者，一个让我敬佩的强者！

细想自己，在生活中、学习中常有畏难的情绪，遇到一点点困难就想绕着走。如我的坐位体前屈一直没有进步太大，是因为自己忍受不住平时锻炼的疼痛。在数学学习中遇到难题，总以各种理由来安慰自己，觉得自己没有学过奥数，不懂就不懂，或者觉得自己其他科目都很优秀，小小短板并不会给自己在班里的名次带来影响。总是等父母来指导我，缺乏自己专研，克服难题的那股韧劲。

我想，在以后的学习、生活中，自己也会遇到种种困难和棘手问题，与桑地亚哥在大海上遇到的困难和问题相比都是很小的事情。我应该坚定自己的信心和目标，时刻告诫自己“一个人并不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败”，这句话也将是我学习生活的座右铭，勉励自己做一个生活的强者，一个乐观积极向上的人。

今天，我读了期待已久的一本书——《老人与海》。

美国著名作家海明威的《老人与海》讲的是：一个名叫圣地亚哥的老渔夫，连续八十四天没有钓到一条鱼，被别人看作是一个失败者;然而他坚持不懈，在一次特殊的捕鱼过程中，他钓到了一条巨大的马林鱼，比他的船还长两米的一条大鱼!这是老人从没见过的一条大鱼，他没见过也没听说过!马林鱼力气太大，大鱼拖着小船在大海上漂泊了整整两天两夜。大鱼奋力挣扎，老人身衰力竭。可能一个不小心，大鱼就会带给他死亡的威胁。

但老人的意志却是无比坚定、无法被摧垮的。他并不向大鱼低头，而是凭着顽强的意志，和大鱼展开了不屈的抗争。经过三天漫长的搏斗，老人终于把马林鱼刺死，挂在船头。

然而，幸运并没有降临，更大的考验还在等待着筋疲力尽的的老人——那是一群嗅着血腥而来的鲨鱼，一群比大马林鱼更具有危险性的凶残的敌人!老人想尽一切办法与鲨鱼展开了殊死搏斗，但大马林鱼肉仍然被鲨鱼吃光了，最后老人拖回家的只有一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。

这样一个简单的故事，让我突然发现，感人至深并不一定需要曲折复杂的情节，简简单单也可以动人心弦。

读完这本书，只觉得老人是孤独的，却也是勇敢的。

老渔夫圣地亚哥出海捕鱼84天，却一无所获。然而他并不气馁，继续出海，经过两天两夜的苦战终于捕到一条罕见的大鱼。返航时，却因为遇到鲨鱼群，而只剩下一副骨架。他失败了吗?没有。他的勇气，被记住了。他是一个硬汉子，一个真正的强者，只能被摧毁不能被击败。故事的结局虽然是令人遗憾的，但那已经不重要了。重要的是过程，重要要的是他与厄运抗争的勇气和坚持。

有时，我为之所动容的，不是惊天动地的的感情，不是两肋插刀的兄弟之情，而是一个不屈的眼神或是百折不挠的精神。

我体会到了圣地亚哥的精神。他是令人佩服服的，可是却总是那么孤单。只有海，是一直陪着老人的，也许也只有海，可以让老人不再孤单。

《老人与海》告诉我们一个道理:“人并不是生来要被打败的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败”。生活就像大海一样无常，它总会不断给人考验，挑战我们的极限;在生活中，我们们要像圣地亚哥学习，怀揣不屈与坚毅，不与命运妥协，不向现实低头，做一个不怕困难、永不言败的人。即使我们弱小，但精神不垮。

《老人与海》是美国作家海明威于1951年在古巴写的一篇中篇小说。

《老人与海》背景是在20世纪中叶的古巴。主人公是一位名叫圣地亚哥的老渔夫，配角是一个叫马诺林的小孩。风烛残年的老渔夫一连八十四天都没有钓到一条鱼，但他仍不肯认输，而是充满着奋斗的精神，终于在第八十五天钓到一条身长十八尺，体重一千五百磅的大马林鱼。大鱼拖着船往海里走，老人依然死拉着不放，即使没有水，没有食物，没有武器，没有助手，左手抽筋，他也丝毫不灰心。经过两天两夜之后，他终于杀死大鱼，把它拴在船边。但许多鲨鱼立刻前来抢夺他的战利品。他一一地杀死它们，到最后只剩下一支折断的舵柄作为武器。结果，大鱼仍难逃被吃光的命运，最终，老人筋疲力尽地拖回一副鱼骨头。他回到家躺在床上，只好从梦中去寻回那往日美好的岁月，以忘却残酷的现实。

《老人与海》却是一本能让人了解，什么才是真正的人生，什么才是坚强的书。在现实生活中，我们会不断地受到挫折、失败还有许多负面的情绪，许多人因此而消极、失去对生活的热爱。而《老人与海》却刻画出一个与大海搏斗，在艰难的环境下，奋力生活的老渔夫。老人的渔船上那破旧的帆布，就像是一面失败的旗帜，仿佛在宣告着老人永远都捕不到鱼的倒霉运气。但是，他没有放下，仍然出海捕鱼。而在现实中，某些人却不能坚持，应对挫折就选取了放下，选取了逃避。和那已经生活窘迫的老渔夫相比，那些逃避的人真的是不明白什么才是挫折。我们可能会因为考试的失利，而对自我失去信心。或者因为别人的批评，而自暴自弃。在那时候，想想这个坚强的老渔夫，他是如何应对生活的。自我的心，自然就会释然许多。

我们的手没有老茧，皮肤没有晒出斑点，夏天在家里吹冷气，衣服是父母帮忙洗，每一天放学回家就有热腾腾的饭菜摆在桌上。我们实在是没有生活的压力，我们也真的没有受到过那些能够成为挫折的东西。我们的烦恼、挫折，只能说是少年时代的那小小的不满意而已。我们暂时还没有要为生活而奔劳，也就不明白生活的艰难。我们不了解，在社会中，有许多人像那个老渔夫一样，艰难的活着，他们从来没有放下过。那些农民工、修鞋匠、修车匠……都是在艰苦的环境下活着，他们是那么坚强，对生活充满了热爱。

无论是与书中那个老渔夫相比，还是在现实生活中与那些艰难生活的人相比，我们的生活已经是很好的了，我们更就应热爱生活，并且学会坚强的应对一切的困难与挫折。我相信，只要想起那个老渔夫，他的坚强和对生活的热爱，我们就也会学着坚强，热爱生活。

《老人与海》是新课标推荐给学生的必读书之一，很长一段时间我无法对它喜欢起来，曾今在班里读过几页，面对学生淡淡的反应，让我一度觉得这本书无法欣赏，一本连我自己都无法读出味道的书要读给学生听，学生自然不会买我的帐，读过几页之后这本书很自然的被我打入了冷宫。

救它出冷宫的是黄黄的书签上的一句话“海明威，美国作家因《老人与海》一书一举获得诺贝尔文学奖。”我很惊讶，这样一本薄薄的书为什么能拿到诺贝尔文学奖?一时兴起百度了一下，找到了很多关于这本书的一些简介和价值剖析以及其他人的一些读后感，渐渐地我也产生了读读的这本书的欲望，于是有了我与这本书的二次会面。

借助他人的阅读提示和一探究竟的心情花了三个晚上读完了这本书。有三点至今在脑海里回荡：

一、桑迪亚哥太强大了。他，一无所有，穷，年老，身体不好。但是却也是世界上最富有的人，八十七天没有抓到鱼，仍然坚持出海，仍然坚信自己一定能够抓到一条大鱼让渔村里的人大吃一惊，八十七天他承受的是怎样的压力啊?我想到了我们的公开课，如果我八十七节课都没有上好，我敢开公开课吗?我的内心还会有那种自信和热情吗?恐怕都怕了吧。

二、很善良的故事。小男孩很善良，虽然家人的逼迫使得他不得不离开老人的渔船，但是他从未放弃关心老人，照顾老人的生活，陪他说话，为他担心，老人归海后小男孩红着双眼坚决的说“谁也不许打扰他。”不禁让我眼泪盈眶，那是真正的疼爱呀，有爱再简短的话都充满力量。老人也是善良的，他很穷，但是他记得每一个对他好的人，捕鱼归来，身体都还没恢复，首先想到的是如何分那条大鱼，分给曾今帮助过他的每一个人，感恩和善良亦是一种伟大的人格，不得不令人肃然起敬。

三、一种伟大的力量。老人与大鱼搏斗让我们看到的不是人与动物的厮杀，不是血腥的场面，看到的只是一种英雄之间惺惺相惜的疼，老人和大鱼都是英雄，老人要杀死大鱼，但他斗的是智慧，他尊重自己的对手。还记得老人曾说过一句话：“在大海里没有谁是真正孤单的。”海的宽广无垠也孕育了无限的孤单寂寞，我想只有真正懂得他的人才能在寂寞的海面上唱出欢欣的歌吧。在这本书里人、动物和大自然是融为一体的，桑迪亚哥用智慧和毅力征服了大海，也征服了读他的人。

倘若细细品味，这本书里很多的句子都会给人以无限的启发，值得再读。

一个平凡的大海，一个平凡的老人，一个简单的故事，却给我们一个深刻印象，告诉我们一个深刻的道理。

老渔夫桑地亚年轻时是一位出色的渔夫，到了老年他的精力和反应都远不如以前。妻子死后，他一个人孤单的生活在海边，只有一个小孩亲近他，崇拜他。他已经一连八十四天没有打到鱼了，对于一个渔夫来说这是一个耻辱。但在第八十五天他依然顽强的出海打鱼。这一次，他碰上了一条足有十八英尺长的大鱼，这条鱼激起了老渔夫挑战它的决心。老人与大鱼奋战了两个昼夜，在这个过程中他不断和鱼，和鸟，和大海对话。凭借自己顽强的毅力和坚定的信念，他终于挺了过去，征服了庞大的鱼，但在回来的路上，一大批鲨鱼被吸引过来，老渔夫吃力的与鲨鱼搏斗，但干枯的精力无法阻挡鲨鱼猛烈的进攻。鲨鱼把大鱼吃了，那条大鱼变成了一副空空的骨架，最后，老渔夫把巨大的骨架拖回了岸上。

在老人无力的时候，小孩是老人唯一的亮点，因为这一亮点，老人找回了自我。老人失败了，但，也成功了。他战胜了自身、大鱼，但也输给了鲨鱼。晚上，老人睡着了，小孩在他身边守护着他。那一晚，老人梦见了雄狮，那是力量的象征。

看完这本书，我的心久久不能平静，这位平凡而又可敬的老人，使我深深懂得了：做人不应该被任何困难所吓倒，我们应该尽我们最大的努力与生活中的磨难，做不屈不挠的斗争。

以前的我一遇到困难，往往先畏缩，没有人鼓励，引导，就会失去自我。读完《老人与海》以后，他顽强的毅力，坚定的信念影响了我。今后的我不管遇到什么困难，总会迎难而上，坚持到底。

自信，顽强，坚定，永不言败，这就是老人教给我的.，人可以被打倒，但不能被打败。

一个人并不是生来就要被打败的，人尽可以被毁灭，但却不能被打败。 ——海明威

他，是一个老人，是一个在大海面前上演了一场悲剧的老渔夫。

他，近3个月没捕到一只鱼了，却一直坚持着——终于，在第八十五天，他发现了一只无比巨大的马林鱼。鱼，大力地挣扎着，他知道自己不是大鱼的对手，可他就是不放手，两天两夜，他总算征服了马林鱼，却引来了许多抢夺他胜利果实的鲨鱼，老人又迎来了一场斗争——但最后他还是输了——大鱼被吃光了，只剩下一副鱼骨……

这是一个多么让人伤心，又多么真实的故事啊!老人这么努力，这么坚强，可还是以悲剧告终。但是细想，这本书似乎并不仅仅给予我们伤心、失望那些消极的东西，更多的还是一种不服输，不放弃的顽强精神。

还记得那段时间，我的心情非常低落，似乎一切都在与我作对。我以为自己已经很努力了，可考试还是连连失利，于是我变得闷闷不乐了，总会搞砸一些事情——不是走路时摔跤，就是不小心打翻水杯。我无数次想过放弃我那不可能的目标，就在这时，我读了《老人与海》。一时间，我被这书中的老人给深深地感动了，他是多么的勇敢——在疯狂的马林鱼面前，他没认输;在恐怖的鲨鱼面前，他没认输;在厄运面前，他也没认输。而我只是遇到这么一点点小挫折，我怎么能认输呢?于是我又一次振作起来，朝着我的目标不断前进着。

虽然，老人没能取得最后的胜利，但是他没有低头认输，一直坚持到了最后，他已经是一个伟大的胜利者。他已经战胜了大海，战胜了马林鱼、鲨鱼，更战胜了他自己。

这让我不由想到了老舍写的《骆驼祥子》中的主人公祥子，他与老人是多么的像啊，同样有梦想，同样有坚定的信念，却都遭遇了种.种不幸，但他们在命运面前都不曾放弃过，不曾认输过。

虽然，老人和祥子都只是在作家笔下构造出来的人物，可是想想：人类不一直在和自己的命运做着斗争，他们不愿只听从上天的安排，于是他们不断地创新、发展，不断探索大自然，走出了非洲大陆。

他们也不愿轻易向命运妥协，他们可能是家境贫寒，甚至有身体上的缺陷，但他们都用永不言败的拼搏精神，创造了一个个传奇故事：瞎子阿炳创作了《二泉映月》，海伦凯勒写了《假如给我三天光明》，霍金提出了黑洞这一说法……他们不都有像老人和祥子那样在命运面前永不低头的精神吗?

“一个人并不是生来就要被打败的，人尽可以被毁灭，但却不能被打败。”一个人他即使被毁灭，也不能低头认输，这是多么坚强啊!茫茫大海上，他是那么渺小。悲伤的命运前，他又是多么的脆弱。可是在他的世界里没有妥协，只有奋斗——他绝对不会向命运认输!

既然我已经踏上了这条道路，那么，任何东西都不应妨碍我沿着这条路走下去。——康德

我小心翼翼地拿起笔，一笔一划地模仿着老师的样子在纸上认真涂抹。可画出的画却漏洞百出，我常常为自己画不好而懊恼。我开始觉得绘画实在太难，觉得自己无法坚持学习了。妈妈为了鼓励我，特意挑了一幅“好画”装裱起来，还喜滋滋地把它挂在家中最显眼的墙上，一有来人总不免大肆“炫耀”一番。在妈妈的糖衣炮弹下，我继续坚持着。

回首过去五年，每当我看到那幅“好画”，我觉得它既幼稚又可笑。回首过去五年，我的耳边总时时传来妈妈“精彩极了”的话语。回首过去五年，我一步一个脚印，在绘画这条道路上坚持前行，有眼泪，有汗水，更有收获。是坚持让我的绘画水平不断的提高，也是坚持让我享受着绘画的乐趣。在新年到来之际，老师又送给了我一份特殊的礼物——素描班的结业作品：一幅笔法精致栩栩如生的素描小狗。是乐观和坚持，它们这对密不可分的好朋友使我实现自己的目标，达成自己的愿望。

《老人与海》的主角圣地亚哥，虽然年迈，但在遇到重重困难时仍然保持乐观的精神，拥有着不同常人的坚定意志。

当他连续八十四天没有捕到鱼时，他放弃了吗？当他坚持了两天两夜才刺死的大鱼却引来了一大群鲨鱼围攻，他退缩了吗？当奋力反抗但还是抵挡不住鲨鱼的攻击，最终大鱼仅剩下白白的鱼骨，他绝望了吗？显然没有。如果没有乐观的精神，他恐怕也没有信心和勇气再次出海，继续他的捕鱼生活。从老人身上，我们看到的是积极乐观的心态和坚持不懈的意志。

而我呢？我的身边总有个小人在呐喊：“算了，算了，这这样吧。”“不学了，不学了，太累了。”“反正我就是做不好。”是谁驱散了这些黑暗？是谁助我战胜了自己？

高尔基曾说：“如果怀着愉快的心情谈起悲伤的事情，悲伤就会烟消云散。”每当遇到困难时，妈妈总是用幽默的故事来开导我，用诙谐的语言来鼓励我，当我破涕为笑时，眼前的困难都变小了，这大概也是一种乐观心态的养成。做自己的主人吧，乐观和坚持会是你最大的武器！

To Live Happily All the Time

——about “Three Men in A Boat”

Most fairy tales end like this:“They live happily ever after.” But to George, Harris and J, “ever after” is far from enough. Their belief is to live happily ALL THE TIME. Who are these three guys? They are the “bestest” pals from a humorous English book — Three Men in A Boat.

Just take a look at these three funny guys: You can meet them anywhere at any time. All of them have great aspirations and plenty of passion. But in the morning, none of them like to wake up early. All of them want to be great explorers. But on rainy days, they all prefer to stay by the warm fireplace. Yes, it’s our Harris, George and J. And now, they are taking a vacation on the famous Thames.

They started off in a little boat, which none of them would like to drive. They kept explaining that they didn’t come out for fun—they were taking a rest because of some so called “dreadful disease”。 When they were traveling, they couldn’t stop making jokes on others. When they were cooking, they couldn’t stop the eggs from getting on their pans. when they finally gave up the boat and went home by train, they still couldn’t stop telling each other how clever it was to be “three men out of boat”……

Such a simple story has brought me lots of laugher and thoughts. I laughed over their funny troubles and funny talkings all along the trip. And also I found that I came to admire them after laughing each time. Because when they met something in trouble, or their own complicated jobs came, first, they would burst into laughter at once, and then started to solve the problem slowly with partience and happiness. Sometimes I was surprised by them. Because something that happens in our daily life such as losing the wallet, or a bad weather, will make every one of us complain and be upset for long. But how about the three men in the boat? They will certainly laugh at it first! They giggle, they grin, they smile. They have taught me how to laugh at trouble, to smile at hard work, and to laugh away tears. It’s a good way to face my blue days. As a student, I always complain about my homework, my parents, and my classmates. But George, Harris and J told me: there’s no point in complaining. Just face your life and try to find the good side of everything. And also remember to cherish friendship—like the three of them.

Yes, yes. Sometimes they seemed to be “cynical” or “lazy”。 But the fire of live, diligence, and happiness is burning in their hearts all the time. To them, the so called “dreadful disease” is only an excuse for their going out to relax. To them, all the trouble is the chance to use both patience and laughter. To them, all the hard work is the gift from God to make them stronger and happier.

Don’t just stare at the “happy ending” of “living happily every after”。 Think about the three men in the boat. They are common guys like you and me. But they are all very great—They have the ability to make themselves live happily ALL THE TIME.

《老人与海鸥》是邓启耀写的一篇文章，这篇文章给我了非一般的感动。

这篇文章讲了：老人把海鸥当成自己的亲人看待，给他们取名字，并每天给海鸥喂食，是海鸥的好朋友。老人去世后，海鸥们围着老人的遗像前翻飞盘旋，大声鸣叫，像是为老人守灵的白翼天使，不忍心离开这个每天给它们喂食的亲人。他们也许已经知道老人已经去世了，在他们面前的老人其实是一张遗像，真正的老人已经不在了……但他们依然在一声声呼唤着老人，他们一定是认为自己的一声声呼唤能把老人复活。当然这是不可能的事情。

老人为什么要每天走二十余里来给海鸥门喂食呢？向他这样的老人应该在家里靠在摇椅上安享晚年，可他为什么每天来给海鸥们喂食呢？我反复的读了这篇文章，明白了，老人认为海鸥是吉祥鸟、幸福鸟，海鸥在哪，就给哪带来福气。

读了老人与海鸥，我明白了：人与动物之间，要有真挚深厚的情谊。我突然想起了一个博友写的一句话：爱，往往能创造出一个奇迹！

昨晚，我一口气读完了《老人与海》这本书。它讲的是一位白发苍苍的老人，他常年靠在大海里打渔为生，可是这一次他单独出海却钓到了一条大鱼，这条鱼比他的船还要大，老人通过与大鱼斗智斗勇终于制服了大鱼，可是却引来了成群结队的鲨鱼，在同鲨鱼的搏斗过程中，大鱼的肉都被鲨鱼吃完了，结果老人拖回去的只是一副大鱼的骨架。

看了这本书，我被老人的勇敢精神感动了。在困难面前，老人没有放弃，他迎难而上，他常常说：“一个人并不是生来就是用来打败的。”这种永不言败的精神感动并激励着我们每一个人。在我们的成长过程中，一定会遇到许多困难，我们应该向老人学习，要把所有的困难都克服了，做一个勇敢的孩子。

我十分爱读《老人与海》，因为在这本书中有许多令我思绪万千的好句子。

最使我印象深刻的就是作者在描写老人屏住呼吸，等待大鱼上钩时的心理：人们常说好的愿望不能挂在嘴边，老念叨着就不应验了。的确，美好的愿望不可常说，因为那样，你的精力就会花费在口头上而不是行动中。这会使你在朝着愿望奔跑的路上出现数不清的坎坷、障碍，阻挡你前进的脚步。更何况，取得成功本来就不是什么容易的事。

事实上也是这样，你想取得优异的成绩，就不该整天夸夸其谈，而应该沉下心去努力奋斗，脚踏实地地一步步朝自己愿望迈进。前者与后者相比，后者必定是最有方法而且最有可能成功的。再者说，你万万不可总是生活在美好而又虚幻的愿望中，不管怎样，它还都只是个不存在的东西，就像一颗奢求成功的种子，没有这些其他的辅助工作，如：温暖的阳光、滋润的甘露、肥沃的泥土……是永远不可能实现的，即使它拥有大树的命，也终将是一颗一事无成的种子。

努力不是靠嘴说的，愿望必须靠你自己的双手来完成，让梦启航！

As the only living things on a bare planet called “Just Like Home”， humans felt lonely and sad. In order to live, they must get married as often as possible and have children. Unwilling to get married, our 16-year-old protagonist named Humming Bird ran away from her planet and found a plastic space ship. There she met various kinds of animals, which frightened her even drove her crazy. She had never seen such things before. Only through ‘The Book Of Remembering’ did she get some rough idea of animals. After she took a small-copied cat home and showed it to the officials on her planet, the cat was shot to death and all the officials went crazy. Humming Brid didn’t give up her attempt to let people accept the animals. She decided to set about the job from children…

That’s the brief plot of Harry Gilbert’s science fiction—。 Based on the reality of increasing environmental problems, the writer uses his full imagination and creativity to produce this vivid imaginative and thought-provoking story.

As far as we know, animal numbers are now diminishing all over the world every years, and the living conditions we depend on a getting worse. We dirty the air with gases and smoke, poison the water with chemicals and other substances and damage the soil with too many fertilizers and pesticides. We also pollute our surroundings in many other ways. Air, water and soil are all very important and necessary to the survival of all living things all over the world. If we human don’t pay more attention to that, there will come a day when we have to live the kind of life described in this novel. As we know, the world is made up not only of human beings but also a lot of other living things. If we don’t want to leave this perfect planet, we have to protect the environment; otherwise, without the company of other living things, people would only be half-alive, men only half-men.

Nowadays, I should say, people have realized the importance of environmental protection and ecological balance. Slogans that remind us to save water and electricity are stuck everywhere, but how many are treated as requirements or duties and not just a piece of paper. If we pay a little attention to our working and study places, we always find some taps half opened with running water, and large numbers of people get used to leave lights on during the day. Dustbins for both recycled and unredeemable rubbish are placed in high density but no one bothers to throw the rubbish into the right dustbins. Nor do they even know what kind of rubbish could be recycled and what kind could not.

Conservation centers for protecting animals are built in many countries. Our government also passed some acts to protect animals; however, there do exist some law-breakers who are driven by money. We plant trees very year, but no one bothers to water and care for them after planting them. For money, some farmers drive their sheep and cattle to grasslands and charge it into desert.

All in all, to every one, I want to say, “Living on this wonderful planet earth, we are lucky and happy. In order to enjoy this kind of wonderful life, we must care for mother earth and put this kind of care into practice.”

Facing the world, to be or not to be, it’s up to you. We must make a choice without any hesitation!

“一艘船越过世界的尽头，驶向未知的大海，船头上悬挂着一面虽然饱经风雨剥蚀却依旧艳丽无比的旗帜，旗帜上，舞动着云龙一般的四个字闪闪发光——超越极限！”作者海明威是这样评价他的作品《老人与海》的。

《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。

海明威为什么没有让老人最终胜利呢？用小说中老人的话来说：“一个人并不是生来就要被打败的”，“人尽可以被毁灭，但却不能被打败。”这就是《老人与海》想揭示的哲理。不可否认，只要是人就都会有缺陷。当一个人承认了这个缺陷并努力去战胜它而不是去屈从它的时候，无论最后是捕到一条完整的马林鱼还是一副空骨架，这都已经无所谓了，因为一个人的生命价值已在那追捕马林鱼的过程中充分地体现了。曾经为自己的理想努力追求过、奋斗过，难道他不是一个胜利者吗？老渔夫就是敢于挑战自身缺陷及自己勇气和信心的胜利者。从世俗胜利观的角度看，老渔夫不是最后的胜利者，因为尽管开始他战胜了大马林鱼，但是最终大马林鱼还是让鲨鱼吃了，他只是带着大马林鱼的白骨架子回到了岸上，也就是说，鲨鱼才是胜利者。可是，在理想主义者眼里，老渔夫就是胜利者，因为他始终没有向大海没有向大马林鱼更没有向鲨鱼妥协和投降。就如音乐大师贝多芬所说“我可以被摧毁，但我不能被征服”。

人性是强悍的，人类本身有自己的限度，但正是因为有了老渔夫这样的人一次又一次地向限度挑战，超越它们，这个限度才一次次扩大，一次次把更大的挑战摆在了人类面前。在这个意义上，老渔夫桑地亚哥这样的英雄，不管他们挑战限度是成功还是失败，都是值得我们永远敬重的。因为，他带给我们的是人类最为高贵的自信！

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！

I read a very interesting book, the name of the book is called "Tom Sawyer, I like the book in the little hero and some story happened on him.

Tom is a naughty, naive and lively children, but in the eyes of an adult who is also a real bad boy, he naughty, like mischief, play truant, the nature is the norm, not only in this way, he make trouble method also each time, let a person elusive, small-scale operations. Although he is a very bad very bad child, but also to make people laugh: penalty was painting the walls, and could come up with a good way to make a friend for him to complete, and make friends with him to take a variety of foods and toys for a chance to paint the walls. In this way, Tom not only comfortable, leisure and suddenly gained a lot of gifts.

Let me more impressive is the story of Tom and huck and Joe three people formed a team when the pirates fled to a desert island. In this adventure, he met with difficulties, but he didnt lose heart, dont give up, again and again to challenge difficulties bravely, until down with difficulty.

After reading this book, I feel that we meet with difficulties dont get discouraged, and strive to insist on. Tom lives full of sunshine also tells us: as long as there is joy, have a dream, a dream can come true!

我读了一本非常有趣的书，书的名字叫《汤姆索亚历险记》，我很喜欢这本书中的小主人公以及在他身上发生的一些故事。

汤姆是一个顽皮、天真并且十分活泼的孩子，但在大人的眼里他同时也是一个不折不扣的坏孩子，他调皮、喜欢恶作剧、逃学这些自然是家常便饭，不仅这样，他捣蛋的方法还一次比一次厉害，让人琢磨不透，防不胜防。他虽然是一个很坏很坏的孩子，但也会做出让人捧腹大笑的事情：被罚粉刷墙壁，竟能想出好办法让小伙伴替他完成，并让小伙伴们拿各种各样的食物和玩具来跟他换一次刷墙的机会。这样一来，汤姆不光悠闲自在，而且一下子就收获了很多礼物。

让我印象比较深刻的是故事中汤姆与哈克再加上乔三人组成了一个团队逃到了荒岛上当海盗。在这次冒险中，他遇到了种种困难，但他并不灰心，也不放弃，一次又一次勇敢地向困难挑战，直到打倒困难为止。

读了这本书以后，我觉得遇到困难我们不要轻易气馁，而要努力奋斗，坚持下去。汤姆充满阳光的生活里也告诉我们：只要有欢乐，有梦想，美梦便可以成真!

"The gift of the magi" tells a story like this: in order to buy a platinum fob chain for her husband as a Christmas gift, his wife, sold a head of show hair. And her husband for the same purpose, sold the ancestral gold watch for his wife bought a set of combs. Although each others gift lost use value, but they get more important things than feelings, love, is priceless.

After reading it, I ask: arent rich couple, but it can in the ordinary day make such a remarkable thing: for the sake of each other, regardless of their completely. It is because they love each other, so would do such extraordinary things. By contrast, how much I pay for others? In life, I always for a little dispute, with others, haggle over every ounce, finally do more harm than good, bad credibility instead, why dont I learn from them, care about each other, and what is bad? I should really reflect on yourself.

"Lover one constant love", only care about each other and love each other, for the sake of others, the world wouldnt be so indifferent and cold.

《麦琪的礼物》讲述了一个这样的故事：为了给丈夫买一条白金表链作为圣诞礼物，妻子卖掉了一头秀发。而丈夫出于同样目的，卖掉了祖传的金表给妻子买了一套发梳。尽管彼此的礼物都失去了使用价值，但他们从中获得比情感更重要的东西——爱，却是无价的。

读完之后，我深有感触：一对并不富有的夫妇，却能在平凡的一天做出这样一件不平凡的事情：为对方着想，完全不顾自己。正是因为他们互相爱着对方，所以才会做出这样不平凡的事情。相比之下，我为别人付出的又有多少呢?在生活中，我总是为了一点小纠纷，与别人针锋相对，斤斤计较，最后得不偿失，反而坏了信誉，我何不学学他们，互相关心，又有什么不好呢?我应该认真反思自己。

“爱人者人恒爱之”，只有互相关心、互相关爱，为他人着想，世界才不会这么冷漠、无情了。
