《文化苦旅》是一本文字优美却又言之有物的书。这本书让我游历了大江南北，带我穿越时空，领略唐宋元明清的历史。本书写的是中国名处的名胜古迹、风土人情，可按以说是一本游记；而在其中又记录了许多史实；也可以说是一部史记；而全书流露出的喜怒哀乐、诗情画意，又使这本书成为一部很不错的集。

走在中华民族的土地上，作者用其独特的观察力和洞悉力去深思这古老民族的深层文化，用心思细腻的笔触，为这趟巡视华夏文化的「苦旅」，这本书里头有太多不忍与亲身体验的辛酸。苦苦的味道，未看过《文化苦旅》之前，大概也不会想到，一处处令人流连忘返的风景名胜与历史古迹在它们的背后会有如此深层的涵义；而作者运其妙笔，以干净漂亮的散文，组合成了一篇篇绝妙的。走进书中的情境与思考，我不禁严肃起来。

像一个被流放的孩子，流放到一块自己不熟悉的土地，逼使我不得不走向前去。眼前出现了莫高窟的石洞，石洞依旧壮观，石像，壁画依然不言，我静静看着光影投射在石壁上的变化，如同它们静静地看着敦煌千年的变迁。千年前的第一刀划下，开启了千年后莫高窟的壮丽。它曾遭遇浩劫：王道士手中一串钥匙把守了千年的敦煌，却任其流落在外人手里，而中华子孙却也将之弃而不顾，那一马车，一马车的文物输往外国。多年后的今天，那神秘又充满意义的洞窟，为何能引起大家的注目它并非外表炫丽，而是它只是一种仪式，一种人性的，及它深层的蕴藏。我们在这儿看到，美，也有宗教的天地，以及它是中国千年的标本，一样美的标本，纵使它曾经残缺，被人无情的，任意的转换。

在柳侯祠前，由一尊石像追想柳宗元的一生，从他的文才想至他的被贬，既遭贬谪，而永柳二州又是荒远之地，因此他自放于山林水泽之间，将其困厄感伤的心境，完全寄托在游赏山水之间与文章创作之中，使中国文学拥有了「永州八记」这样出色的山水文学，这样的一代士人的气节与傲气让后世学者不得不去尊敬他的文化意识及人格，带着崇敬和疑问来瞻仰这位大文豪。

苦与甜本是一家，先苦后天，才知甜滋味。正如余秋雨把书名取作《文化苦旅》！但苦中处处有希望的曙光。

在小学的英语教案的阅读中，教师有时往往为了培养学生对英语学习的兴趣，经常会利用游戏，因为游戏受到学生的喜爱。课堂上唱唱跳跳，说说演演，形式花哨，十分热闹，使学生在快乐中接受教师预设的价值取向。但时间一久，我们不难发现：很多学生原有的最初的学习热情急剧下降，原始的兴趣正逐渐地不复存在，他们会因为有些游戏的重复，而显得无精打采。在课堂教学中经常会遇到这样的情况：课前教师不遗余力的精心设计游戏组织来吸引学生兴趣；课上学生走来走去，又是叫又是跑，甚是热闹，这样的教学次序直接影响教师的教学流程，教学环节流于形式；往往一堂课后，学生懵懵懂懂，一知半解；长此以往，学生捧着课本迷惑地望着你，不知道自己到底要学习和掌握书上的哪些内容。究其原因不难发现，课堂环节安排不合理，所学的知识没及时巩固，知识没能螺旋上升，直接导致教学的畸形，学生的学习成绩往往大家都不满意。面对如此频频告急的教学危机，这不能不引发我们的反思。

我个人认为，激发学生对学科兴趣的过程中，不能只停留在课堂表面的“活”，“乐”，“玩”中。我们更要注重学科本身，从学得后产生的成功体验来不断滋长兴趣，挖掘学生学习的内驱力。在教学中我们应该做到如下几点：

一、面向全体，分层教学

在游戏教学过程中，不可回避的如何对待优中差生。我们设计的游戏要注重面向全体学生，难度适中，让大家都参与。可以根据学生的个人素质，性格特点，记忆力反应速度等，因材施教，分层要求，以求最有效的激励机制促学生不断上进。

二、组织得法，严谨有序

做好游戏的组织工作，做到有条不紊，活而不乱。小学生天性爱游戏，争强好胜，有些学生做起来容易忘乎所以，甚至在课堂上，有时会情不自禁地高声喊，因此，首先，有开始游戏之前讲清规则。纪律要求，评分标准，防患未然。在游戏过程中即使还出现一些混乱，要能理解学生的心理，不一味批评，而是积极讲清楚，在集体活动中，大家应该遵守规则。

三、适时适度

我认为不能力求面面俱到，游戏过多，而忽略了主要教学内容的讲授和训练，喧宾夺主，把英语课上成游戏娱乐课，那就适得其反了。课堂游戏应该为课堂教学服务，当他成为一种摆设，或者是为游戏而游戏的时候，课堂游戏就失去了他的魅力了。

《山丘上的约会》这个故事中最奇妙的部分，在于两们“笔友”彼此间从未见过面，单单只靠书信文字所产生的美好想象来塑造彼此的形象，而且在无形中不断地增强彼此的美好印象。相信很多人都有这样的经验：只听到某人或某篇文章的形容，就对没见过的人、事、物产生好奇，进而想象，总是越想越美好。

《山丘上的约会》故事最精彩的部分在于两个素未谋面的人终于决定要见面了，让人紧张心跳的也正是这一刻，两人都从对方最高的期望出发，结局如何呢？作者采用了卡通化的造型，夸张地强化了故事中两个主角的差异，不论在身高或体态上都不同。很戏剧化的是，正当玲玲抬头猛往高处寻找将会从天而降的偶像时，男主角瓜瓜也正奋力地跳上山丘去赴约呢！作者运用书本竖立时的直式版面，营造出男女主角见面时的“震憾”画面，令人拍案叫绝！故事中的主角虽然都是田墅里常见的动物，但两者的外形、习性截然不同，所以见面的过程充满了曲折、趣味。孩子在阅读时因为是旁观者，一定会觉得他们好笑，从而在轻松的气氛中理解故事的发展进程。

哇！会面的结果真是令人有些失望，书信中的印象明明不是这样的埃当满怀期盼，终于可以一睹真面目时，才发现事实和想象差了一大截。这是一个有趣又常会发生的事情。其实呢，“人生不如意事十常八九”，生活中经常会有许多的遗憾和委屈。正因为如此我们常常很努力地去避免这样的事情发生，让一切都如意顺心。结果期望越高往往失望越大，以至迷失了对事物本质的认识，我们就越来越不快乐了。试问朋友的真正意义是什么？不就是无邪的友谊分享吗，至于表面的东西也就不值得计较了。

因为人生很少能够真正地心想事成，所以我们会寄望于故事最后的美好结局，至少希望它是正面的、光明的。笔者很欣赏本书的结局。当玲玲和瓜瓜确信彼此的真正友谊存在时，决定继续山丘上的约会，再为彼此美好的友谊努力下去。真好，友谊可以不用猜疑和负担，只要彼此接纳和分享，或许这正是现代人该好好想想的课题。

rale, let person collapse, loss of hope in life. If failure can not beat you, but you stepped on the foot, then success will surely belong to you.

Famous writer Ernest Hemingway in "the old man and the sea" to shape of the old man is a failure and dare to fight the case.

The old man and the sea is mainly about a man named diego old fisherman fishing through a special. In did not hit a fish for eighty-four days, but in the second day, he was very lucky to had caught a big marlin. The marlin is his life caught the biggest fish, the fish is longer than his boat to 2 feet! Marlin body big, strength is big. It pulled the old man and the boat drifted at sea for two days and two nights. Old man experience in these two days and two nights (a) has never experienced a tough test. The big marlin in struggling in the sea, in an attempt to escape back to the sea. Old man in order to uniform marlin, exhausted, were raw, but he did not yield to the big marlin. He with strong will, finally put the big marlin to death, tied to the bow. Fortunately, however, does not appear, waiting for the old man is a bigger test. A group of smelling scent of sharks and already were raw launched a deadly fight against the old man. Finally the old mans life saved, but the shark ate up the big marlin, the old man towed back to the final is a bare skeleton...

A bumpy road has many twists and turns in life, failure is often encountered, we should always have a heart to strong and not to yield to face failure, success will be coming to us.

失败，在许多人的眼中是非常可怕的，它一旦猖狂起来，就能击溃人的斗志，让人彻底崩溃，失去生活的希望。如果失败战胜不了你，而是被你踩在脚下，那么，成功必定属于你。

著名作家海明威在《老人与海》中塑造的那位老人就是一个敢与失败作斗争的例子。

《老人与海》主要讲了一位名叫桑地亚哥的老渔翁一次特别的打鱼经过。在连续八十四天没有打到一条鱼后，但在第二天，他非常幸运地捕获到了一条巨大的大马林鱼。那条马林鱼是他平生捕到的最大的一条鱼，那条鱼比他的小船还要长2英尺呢!马林鱼的身体大，力气自然也大。它拖着老人和小船在海上漂流了两天两夜。老人在这两天两夜中经历(了)从来没有经历过的艰难考验。大马林鱼在大海上奋力挣扎，企图逃回大海。老人为了制服马林鱼，精疲力竭，皮开肉绽，但他并没有向大马林鱼屈服。他凭着顽强的意志，终于把大马林鱼扎死，拴在了船头。然而，幸运并没有出现，等待老人的是更大的考验。一群嗅着血腥味而来的大鲨鱼与已经皮开肉绽的老人展开了殊死博斗。最后老人的命虽然保住了，但鲨鱼们吃光了大马林鱼，老人拖回去的最终是一副光秃秃的骨架……

人生的道路是曲折坎坷的，遇到失败是再平常不过的事，我们应该时时刻刻拥有一颗坚强、不屈服的心来面对失败，成功就一定会向我们走来。

《活着》讲述一个人一生的故事，这是一个历尽世间沧桑和磨难老人的人生感言，是一幕演绎人生苦难经历的戏剧。下面是语文迷为大家提供的活着的英语读后感范文，欢迎大家阅读参考。

To Live

When I read the book To Live, I know I have own a lot of happiness in this period. To Live allowed me to see the people’s suffering and hardship in old China. But the most important is the spirit that age gives to them.

To Live described Fugui’s life who lives in The Cultural Revolution and Great Leap Forward. Fugui borns in a host family, when he was young, he often went outside gambling. So that in the end he spent all the property under the trap which others had designed. At that time, he had got married with his wife Jiazhen. One day, when he went out to borrow money for looking doctors for his parents, he was caught to join the army. Almost all the soldiers had died, but he struggled to live and luckly got together with his family, when his mother had gone and his daughter Fengxia had been a dumb because of illness. His family were very happy because of his coming back. For he had not been assigned to the landlord constituents, they lived a poor and happy life. Of the past with each passing day, his little son was going to middle school, but his disaster began again. His son lost his life for saving his classmate whose father is the mayor of the town. Backlog of the pain and frustration, he and his wife as if had lost a lot and they nearly lost confidence of living. Fortunately, they have a sensible daughter, although she couldn’t talk, but she helped her parents go through the pains. Later Fengxia married to Erxi who is an honest man, but fate still made fun of this hard-working and simple girl, she died from giving birth. And then later, in the heavy blows, Fugui’s wife left him forever.

Life had lost all his family, leaving him, last remaining alive. I don’t know how I can experience his life in that age, his disease that he had to face, but I know Fugui had learnt to respect for life, be properly alive.

Over the course of this semester,I read a moving book:THE LITTLE PRINCE.It impressed me a lot,especially,the pure but deep emotion（love） between the characters such as the pilot and the little prince,the rose and the little prince,the fox and the little prince.The book remind me of the pure and nice emotion only found in childhood.

The main character our little prince live on a planet named B612 accompany with there volcanoes an a rose who falls in love with him but can not understand each other.Consequencely,he leave his planet and his endless travelling.During this period,he come across a diversity of people. From these people he gets a conclusion that the grown-ups are very odd.Then he enter earth and found thousands of roses alike.The little prince discovers that his rose is not the only ,plenty of her kind are everywhere, but then he realizes that his rose is special because it is she that I have watered; because it is she that I have put under the glass globe; because it is she that I have sheltered behind the screen . Then he fall across the fox.She

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

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

宇宙经过无数次的爆炸走向灭亡;又通过无数次爆炸，留下残核而重生。

在《时间简史》中，霍金力图以普通人能理解的方式来讲解黑洞、宇宙的起源和命运、黑洞和时间旅行、爆炸与重生等科普知识，完全改变了人们有关物理学、宇宙和时间本身的观念，向人们展现了当代有关宇宙的最重要的科学思想。

这本书让我联想到很多的事情，世界万物的形成，人类及各种动植物的最初形态-成长-发展-衰亡的过程和轮回;就像草，世界的每个角落都能看到各种小草。它们在冬天会枯萎、发黄甚至死去。但是，每年的春天一到我们又能见到翠绿的草原，正是应验了一句古诗：野火烧不尽，春风吹又生。试想这不也是一种死亡后的重生吗?

在地球上，我们每个人都只是渺小得如一粒沙子;在整个太阳系中，地球也只不过是千万星球中的一颗;而在宇宙中，太阳系是不是只是渺小的一个，我们人类的位置又是在哪里呢?

回归到地球上的万物，不管是人还是植物，都会有终结而被取代的一天。因为宇宙是不规律的，正因为宇宙的不规律才有现在的太阳系、现在的地球以及现在的人类和现在的美好生活。浩瀚宇宙，辽阔苍穹，我们何其不只是一粒微尘，一粒各有缺陷，需要互相交融沟通的尘土。而世界上亦没有十全十美，不管是对待自己的还是他们的错误，我们能做的是只是以一颗微尘谦卑的心，给予多一点包容少一点责备，因为我们都是生活在一个不规律的宇宙之中，我们需要互相理解!

说到宇宙的最初让我回想起我曾经看过的一部短片视频。短片中讲述我们人类所看、所听、所触、所感的都是不复存在的。乍一听，我们可能会觉得此言论是语出惊人，喧哗取宠，但实则不然。

我们都知道人的所有感官系统都是由大脑所控制的，就像我们看到的、听到的都是由我们的神经系统传播到我们的大脑组织，然后再由我们大脑组织显像出我们看到的以及我们所听到的景象或者声音。试想一下把一个人的大脑组织拿出来，然后把它的听觉系统、视觉系统与我们事先准备好的电脑连接在一起。电脑中的画面出现的同时是不是也在这个大脑的视觉系统中显现出相同的画面?我们再把事先准备好的音乐在电脑中播放，这时候的大脑听觉系统是不是也会同时听到一样的音乐呢?这一切真的令人匪夷所思。继续观察，我们会发现如果我们把与电脑连接的视觉系统、听觉系统切断，此时此刻大脑中还能显现出画面、听到音乐吗?答案非常清楚，不能。而这些清晰的画面和声音的形成正是借助于微量元素的作用。

宇宙是由微量原子通过迅速的膨胀直到爆炸，再在宇宙中万有引力的作用下，将爆炸后的相同元素的残骸吸引到一起。成千上万次的爆炸和一次次的万有引力作用才造就了今天的宇宙、星系、地球和人类。

这样，我们不难想象灭亡之后的重生将会更精彩。太阳系如此、地球如此、人类也是如此。但这都是很久之后的事情了。也许等到地球、太阳系结束生命的时候，人类已经找到另外一个可以生存的星球。现在的人类只是整个地球的统治者、占有者和使用者，等到那个时候人类将会成为另一个星球的统治者、甚至整个宇宙的统治者。

霍金给我展现的这一切，或许有人会认为是危言耸听，但是时间会是一个公平的评判者。然而，短时间内，我们能赖以生存的星球就只有地球，我们无法赶超时间和超越空间，能做的就是珍惜爱护我们现在共同的家园，珍惜拥有的时光和生活，把每天都当成末日来过。那样即使明天就如电影《20__》中所描述的世界末日的来临，我们也一样能泰然处之。

最后，联想到我们21世纪的大学生，我们应该庆幸我们赶上了一个好时代，有这样一个好的环境中求学，拓展自己的知识、开阔自己的眼界、活跃自己的思维、培养自己的能力。那么我们又有怎么样的理由在一点点的挫折面前萎靡不振，有怎样的理由在宝贵的时间面前虚度我们的青春?霍金身残志不残，不仅与残疾斗争20年，而且把他高超的智慧奉献于科学研究，以超乎常人的毅力完成了高难度的科学研究。我不能不说，上帝对每个人都是公平的。霍金有身体上的缺陷，可头脑聪明的很!他给科学界的贡献远远超过了一个正常人所付出的。一个人如果身体有了残疾,绝不能让心灵也有残疾。尽管上帝是公平的，但是生活是不公平的，不管你的境遇如何，你只能凭借着依旧热忱的心全力以赴。这些霍金都做到了!而我们就更应该充分利用这么好的条件来努力学习，打破局限，带着自己的思想、自己的见解求知问道。不耻下问，扩展自己的兴趣爱好，提高思想高度。同时逐步走进社会、感受社会、了解社会，提升我们的竞争意识，培养自己多方面思考问题的能力，亦即创新思维的培养。

一本好书不仅让人获得最新知识，获得科学思想、科学精神、科学态度以及科学方法的熏陶和培养，更主要的是能让读者有所思、所感，《时间简史》就是这样一本让人有所思有所感的好书。而对于这本书的作者霍金先生，我更是被他的人格魅力所折服，他的生平是非常富有传奇性的，在科学成就上，他是有史以来最杰出的科学家之一，他的贡献对于人类的观念有着深远的影响。然而他的贡献竟然是在他被禁锢在轮椅上长达20年之久的情况下做出来的，这才是真正奇迹_—他将不可能变成了可能。身体的不幸让霍金体会到了地狱般的煎熬，然而他却以孜孜不倦的科学精神在自己的地域中缔造了人类的天堂。霍金不仅以他的成就征服了科学界，也以他顽强搏斗的精神征服了世界。

让我们记住霍金和他的《时间简史》，更让我们铭记自己内心深处的感悟。

Jane Eyre is a portrait of Charlotte Brontes poetic life. It is a work with autobiographical color. It tells a story of an English woman who has become an orphan since childhood. She always pursues freedom and dignity in all kinds of hardships, insists on herself, and finally gets happiness. From this we can see that the frustrations and pains of life are clouds. Persistence is the key. Victory lies not in the result, but in the spirit. Like Charlotte and Jane Eyre, there is the mental quality of perseverance and struggle against pain. Gain strength, raise self. Let yourself have the courage to open up. Be bold in making progress. Go up the higher steps.

Jane Eyre, the heroine, was a pure and thoughtful woman. She lived in the bottom of society and suffered all kinds of hardships. But she has a stubborn personality and the courage to pursue equality and happiness. With rich lyrical writing and deep and delicate psychological description, the novel exhibits fascinating and tortuous love experiences of the hero and heroine, and celebrates the freedom from all old customs and prejudices. On the basis of mutual understanding and mutual respect is rooted in the deep love, with a strong shock of the mind force. The most successful thing is to create a woman who dares to resist and dare to strive for freedom and peace. The parents died of typhoid fever and died one month later. The young Jane Eyre was raised at the uncles parents house. Uncle Mr. Reed died in the red house after Jane loved XX times subjected to discrimination and abuse of life. On one occasion, Jane was locked up in the red house because of his cousins assault. Physical pain and spiritual humiliation and fear caused her to suffer a serious illness.

The trials of thousands of setbacks have created our persistent character, forged our strong will, trained our excellent skills and paved the way for our success. In the setback, we save a little bit of strength, step by step towards brilliant. Let us full of "fate by the throat" of the lofty sentiments and aspirations! Challenge setbacks and overcome setbacks!

The confusion was going on, the rebellion was on, the search was taking place, and Jane and Mrs. finally walked into the church school under the bullying of Mrs. Reed and John. But the pain is there, there are many essential things, there are many hidden in the undercurrent of life still need to face the pain. The plight of life, the departure of a good friend, and the public denunciation from Mr. Blok Hester all made her feel the foul air and the pain of the heart in the confused life. Life was at last a progress, and God was a little merciful. In the church school, two years of teacher life was probably a calm backwater for jane. However, in not cheerful, quiet life, but permeated with her strong sense of loneliness and fear, she needs is in the real life of confusion in the free and run, free, cheerful and love.

A strong, simple, rigid and flexible, independent, aggressive woman. She was humble and homely, but she didnt feel inferior. Her contempt for the arrogance of power, laugh at their stupidity, show of self-reliance and good ideal personality. She has a tenacious vitality, never bow to fate.

Once saw a sentence in a certain place: "where the heart is, Su Li in the past, life is like a journey, a reed in the air." Janes life is like a lonely boat, walking in the boundless tempestuous waves, with her strong defeated fate, to win their own sky!

[英语作文简爱读后感

《稻草人》这本书的作者是叶圣陶，1894年——1988年，原名叶绍钧，作品有《火灾》、《线下》、《稻草人》、《隔膜》、《月亮姑娘的亲事》等，他的作品风格为怜悯、活泼、悲伤、纯真、善良等为主，讽刺了那些怯弱、空虚、贪婪、虚度时光、自私自利的人，赞美了纯洁、善良、同情、机智、为社会奉献的人。

《稻草人》这本书是多个童话故事结合而成的其中我最喜欢的故事是《稻草人》，《稻草人》这个故事讲了：一个骨架是栗木，肌肉和皮肤都是黄稻草，戴着帽子，拿着扇子的稻草人，他独自站在田野里，驱赶落下来吃麦子的小鸟，它的主人也是一个可怜的人，她的丈夫先死了，她和儿子忙活了五年，还清了债务，没想到她的孩子又得了白喉，死了，又忙活了五年，才又还清了一次债务。第二年，下大雨，发起了洪水，把她家种的麦子全淹了，她把眼睛也哭坏了。稻草人希望这一波麦子不再有事，于是便尽心尽力的帮主人看着麦子，不让麦子遭到任何侵害。有一晚，一只飞蛾飞到了麦子上，产下了卵，可是主人以为没事，便安安心心地走了，稻草人想到主人一年的劳动成果都白费了，便伤心起来，后来又来了一对不幸的母子，一条倒霉的鲫鱼，和寻死的夫人。令稻草人十分悲痛。

这一篇童话中说明世界上有许多不幸的人，我们要关心他人，帮助他人。

When I was a middle school student, I’ve finished this book in Chinese.But when I read it in English,I really gain something new both in the way of expression and the spirit it shows to us.May be different ages to read the same book we will learn different things from it.At least, for my part, that is true.

Firstly,I would like to review some information about this book.Such as the background,major characters and the topic of it.

The Old Man and the Sea is a story by Ernest Hemingway, written in Cuba in 1951 and published in 1952. It was the last major work of fiction to be produced by Hemingway and published in his lifetime. One of his most famous works, it centers upon Santiago, an aging Cuban fisherman who struggles with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream.

The Old Man and the Sea served to reinvigorate Hemingways literary reputation and prompted a reexamination of his entire body of work. The novella was initially received with much popularity; it restored many readers confidence in Hemingways capability as an author. Its publisher, Scribners, on an early dust jacket, called the novella a "new classic," and many critics favorably compared it with such works as William Faulkners "The Bear" and Herman Melvilles Moby-Dick.

This book gives me a deep impression especially the description about the man’s braveness and persistence.

In this book, in order to suggest the profundity of the old man’s sacrifice and the glory that derives from it, Hemingway purposefully likens Santiago to Christ, who, according to Christian theology, gave his life for the greater glory of humankind. Crucifixion imagery is the most noticeable way in which Hemingway creates the symbolic parallel between Santiago and Christ. When Santiago’s palms are first cut by his fishing line, the reader cannot help but think of Christ suffering his stigmata. Later, when the sharks arrive, Hemingway portrays the old man as a crucified martyr, saying that he makes a noise similar to that of a man having nails driven through his hands. Furthermore, the image of the old man struggling up the hill with his mast across his shoulders recalls Christ’s march toward Calvary. Even the position in which Santiago collapses on his bed—face down with his arms out straight and the palms of his hands up—brings to mind the image of Christ suffering on the cross. Hemingway employs these images in the final pages of the novella in order to link Santiago to Christ, who exemplified transcendence by turning loss into gain, defeat into triumph, and even death into renewed life.

The major characters in this book are also vivid and lively.

Santiago?,the old man of the novella’s title, Santiago is a Cuban fisherman who has had an extended run of bad luck. Despite his expertise, he has been unable to catch a fish for eighty-four days. He is humble, yet exhibits a justified pride in his abilities. His knowledge of the sea and its creatures, and of his craft, is unparalleled and helps him preserve a sense of hope regardless of circumstance.

The marlin?,Santiago hooks the marlin, which we learn at the end of the novella measures eighteen feet, on the first afternoon of his fishing expedition. Manolin?,a boy presumably in his adolescence, Manolin is Santiago’s apprentice and devoted attendant. The old man first took him out on a boat when he was merely five years old. Due to Santiago’s recent bad luck, Manolin’s parents have forced the boy to go out on a different fishing boat. Manolin, however, still cares deeply for the old man, to whom he continues to look as a mentor.

Joe DiMaggio, although DiMaggio never appears in the novel, he plays a significant role nonetheless. Santiago worships him as a model of strength and commitment, and his thoughts turn toward DiMaggio whenever he needs to reassure himself of his own strength. Perico ?,Perico, the reader assumes, owns the bodega in Santiago’s village. He never appears in the novel, but he serves an important role in the fisherman’s life by providing him with newspapers that report the baseball scores. This act establishes him as a kind man who helps the aging Santiago.

Martin,like Perico, Martin, a café owner in Santiago’s village, does not appear in the story. The reader learns of him through Manolin, who often goes to Martin for Santiago’s supper. As the old man says, Martin is a man of frequent kindness who deserves to be repaid.

From the very first paragraph, Santiago is characterized as someone struggling against defeat. He has gone eighty-four days without catching a fish—he will soon pass his own record of eighty-seven days. Almost as a reminder of Santiago’s struggle, the sail of his skiff resembles “the flag of permanent defeat.” But the old man refuses defeat at every turn: he resolves to sail out beyond the other fishermen to where the biggest fish promise to be. He lands the marlin, tying his record of eighty-seven days after a brutal three-day fight, and he continues to ward off sharks from stealing his prey, even though he knows the battle is useless.

Because Santiago is pitted against the creatures of the sea, some readers choose to view the tale as a chronicle of man’s battle against the natural world, but the novella is, more accurately, the story of man’s place within nature. Both Santiago and the marlin display qualities of pride, honor, and bravery, and both are subject to the same eternal law: they must kill or be killed. As Santiago reflects when he watches the weary warbler fly toward shore, where it will inevitably meet the hawk, the world is filled with predators, and no living thing can escape the inevitable struggle that will lead to its death. Santiago lives according to his own observation: “man is not made for defeat . . . [a] man can be destroyed but not defeated.” In Hemingway’s portrait of the world, death is inevitable, but the best men (and animals) will nonetheless refuse to give in to its power. Accordingly, man and fish will struggle to the death, just as hungry sharks will lay waste to an old man’s trophy catch.

The novel suggests that it is possible to transcend this natural law. In fact, the very inevitability of destruction creates the terms that allow a worthy man or beast to transcend it. It is precisely through the effort to battle the inevitable that a man can prove himself. Indeed, a man can prove this determination over and over through the worthiness of the opponents he chooses to face. Santiago finds the marlin worthy of a fight, just as he once found “the great negro of Cienfuegos” worthy. HSantiago, though destroyed at the end of the novella, is never defeated. Instead, he emerges as a hero. Santiago’s struggle does not enable him to change man’s place in the world. Rather, it enables him to meet his most dignified destiny.

While it is certainly true that Santiago’s eighty-four-day run of bad luck is an affront to his pride as a masterful fisherman, and that his attempt to bear out his skills by sailing far into the gulf waters leads to disaster, Hemingway does not condemn his protagonist for being full of pride. On the contrary, Santiago stands as proof that pride motivates men to greatness. Because the old man acknowledges that he killed the mighty marlin largely out of pride, and because his capture of the marlin leads in turn to his heroic transcendence of defeat, pride becomes the source of Santiago’s greatest strength. Without a ferocious sense of pride, that battle would never have been fought, or more likely, it would have been abandoned before the end.

Santiago’s pride also motivates his desire to transcend the destructive forces of nature. Throughout the novel, no matter how baleful his circumstances become, the old man exhibits an unflagging determination to catch the marlin and bring it to shore. When the first shark arrives, Santiago’s resolve is mentioned twice in the space of just a few paragraphs. Even if the old man had returned with the marlin intact, his moment of glory, like the marlin’s meat, would have been short-lived. The glory and honor Santiago accrues comes not from his battle itself but from his pride and determination to fight.

Santiago dreams his pleasant dream of the lions at play on the beaches of Africa three times. The first time is the night before he departs on his three-day fishing expedition, the second occurs when he sleeps on the boat for a few hours in the middle of his struggle with the marlin, and the third takes place at the very end of the book. In fact, the sober promise of the triumph and regeneration with which the novella closes is supported by the final image of the lions. Because Santiago associates the lions with his youth, the dream suggests the circular nature of life. Additionally, because Santiago imagines the lions, fierce predators, playing, his dream suggests a harmony between the opposing forces—life and death, love and hate, destruction and regeneration—of nature.

This book gives me courage of conquering all kinds of difficulties .And I have the belief that the most beautiful thing is the process that we make our best to achieve our dream,and never say give up .

你们知道叶圣陶爷爷吗?

叶圣陶爷爷有着很多很棒的作品，是现代作家、教育家、文学出版家和社会活动家，还有“优秀的语言艺术家”之称呢。

我最近看了一本书，就是叶圣陶爷爷写的噢!这本书叫《稻草人》，《稻草人》是本有许多小故事的书。

在这里我最喜欢的一个小故事是《燕子》啦!在这篇小故事里面，也是故事主人公燕子，它的翅膀不小心受伤了，它的妈妈也找不到它，于是柳树、池塘、蜜蜂和花儿都来安慰它。于是在这一天，正好有一个叫青子的女孩放假在山上采花，在采花时看见小燕子的翅膀受伤了，她看小燕子可怜，就把它带回了自己家。青子把小燕子带回家后，就叫来自己的好朋友玉儿，让她一起帮忙。青子把事情经过告诉了玉儿，她们俩一起照顾小燕子，给它唱歌，哄它睡觉。另外，她们俩还决定帮小燕子写信去找它的妈妈。第二天，燕子妈妈来找小燕子了，小燕子的伤也好得差不多了，青子和玉儿依依不舍的把小燕子送走。最后小燕子和它的妈妈团圆了。

通过读《燕子》这篇小故事，我明白了在生活中要学会关心帮助别人，助人为乐，只有这样，才能体会到团结的力量。在以后的学习生活中，我将好好团结身边的同学，积极帮助需要帮助的小朋友，为建设我们的班级和学校做出榜样。

Mr。 A Gan is a man who is short in intelligence but rich in mind! It is impossible for us to make the wildest guess at what achievements he could fulfill。 History does not recount whether a man regarded as ‘stupid’ can do so many amazing things， but the fact is that he does gains a great deal of unexpected fame and success。

The deep impression that the movie give me is that he just keep running all the time。 Mr。 A Gan， it seems， has run into the university， the White House and even the whole continent。 Sometimes I wonder if we all misunderstand the true meaning of smart and clever， for Mr。 A Gan has taught us a very different lesson。 From my point of view， kindness and simplicity is the cleverest wealth that God has given us。

But of the human beings， unpredictable Nature selected only Mr。 A Gan， one wonders also why Nature， with Mr。 A Gan， made it possible that people who was treated as a fool can surely make a difference。 Mr。 A Gan’s success is no accident。 There is no doubt that ordinary people like you and me can live a rich life by perseverance!

"Ordinary world" is a good book, because hes characters and the plot is very real. Straight lets a person as if place oneself in that era, experiencing the ups and downs of The Times. Let a person very inspired after see, delicious. In simple language and true feelings to witness the faith and of the ordinary life of ordinary life. Blundering s, ignoranting society like a cup of clear water scaling back despite the clarification, but not calm. Lu yaos characters are so personality is distinct, little, little flat in the books, and others are a symbol of that era will be affected by the limitations of The Times, but also is therefore is real close, lifelike.

First of all, I am very fond of lu yaos starting point: ordinary world. His world is ordinary, this is just on the loess plateaus thousands of villages in a. , small author characterizes each ordinary ordinary people life journey, foil the era of rapid change, reflect peoples thought, give a person with close, give a person with enlightenment. But lu yao is his character in the ordinary extraordinary. Such as sun shaoping, I think that the character of sun shaoping is the backbone of the text as a whole, through his growth and mature experience, show in front of everyone is a generation that time a vision of life and helpless. He received a high school education, through self-study degree can be thought to explore with college students. Overcome difficulties, to get rid of the bondage, let people yearning for a better life, how to experience life in the middle of the family love, friendship, love, learn to life, know how to cherish, for our generation, is also a warning. In lu yaos world are ordinary people, it is in these ordinary people he describes the human nature of good and beauty, ugliness and evil. In his world, one of the biggest advantages is to realize oneself is ordinary. This is the most prominent from sun shaoping. He realized the ordinary, also chose the ordinary.

Ordinary life, from the ordinary to thrive, you can see, is suffering the confidence, cant take away the hope, love never fails, bitterness, in the ordinary and the pride of this life.

《平凡的世界》之所以是一本好书，因为他的人物以及情节都刻画的很真实。直让人仿佛置身于那个时代，体验着那个时代的风风雨雨。看后让人很受启发，回味无穷。是以朴实的语言与真实的感受来见证平凡生活中的平凡的信仰与人生。浮躁的年代，浑噩的社会像一杯沉垢的清水尽管澄清，但不平静。路遥笔下的人物却是那么个性鲜明，书中的少安、少平，还有其他人都是那个时代的象征也必受时代的局限，但也正因此才真实亲近，栩栩如生。

首先，我很喜欢路遥的出发点：平凡的世界。他的世界是平凡的，这只是黄土高原上几千几万座村落中的一座。从小处着眼，作者刻画出一个个普通人物平凡的人生旅程，衬托日新月异的时代变迁，反映人们的思想，给人以亲近，给人以启迪。但路遥却在平凡中看到了他的主人公的不平凡。比如说孙少平，我认为孙少平这个人物是全篇文字的主线，通过他的成长和成熟的经历，展现给大家面前的是那个时代整整一代人对生活的憧憬与无奈。他受过了高中教育，他经过自学达到可与大学生进行思想探讨的程度。战胜困难，摆脱束缚，让人们对美好生活的向往，如何的体会生活中间的亲情、友情、爱情，学会生活，懂得珍惜，对于我们这一代人，也是一种警醒。在路遥的世界中出现的都是平凡的人物，正是在这些平凡的人物里他描写着人性中的善与美，丑与恶。在他的世界里，人的最大的优点就是认识到自己是平凡的。这点从孙少平身上得到最突出的体现。他认识到了平凡，也选择了平凡。

平凡的人生，从平凡中而来地繁衍生息，你能看到的，就是苦难中的信心，不能夺走的盼望，永不止息的爱，平凡中的苦涩，以及今生的骄傲。

I believe that one of the factors that makes a piece of literature or even a movie a masterpiece is how well the reader can relate to the story. This is definitely a book everyone can relate to.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a literary masterpieces, written in 1876 by the famous author Mark Twain. Tom Sawyer is a mischievous young boy who lives in the small town on the Mississippi River called St. Petersburg. The story line is simple, the book reads like a biography or a memoir of a summer in Tom Sawyers life.

Tom Sawyer seems to be the precursor of and the template for misfit kids such as Dennis the Menace, Malcolm in the Middle, and Calvin and Hobbs. What makes this story great is that Tom Sawyer represents everything that is great about childhood. The book is filled with Toms adventures playing pirates and war with his friend Joe Harper. Tom has a trusted friend, Huck Finn, who few of the adults approve of. The book is filled with ideas of how the world works, such as how pirates and robbers work, that are so innocent, they could only come from a child. It is a story filled with action, adventure, ingenious ideas, love, and schoolyard politics. The whole story is seemingly a complication of what people did or wish they did during their childhood.

The book is a little difficult to read at first. Personally, it takes me a little while to get used to the 19th century dialect in the book. Other than referring to persons of African decent in derogatory terms (which Im sure uses terms even young children already know)， the book would be an enjoyable read for people of all ages. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to feel young again, if just for a few hundred pages.

故事的主人公汤姆是个天真、活泼而又顽皮的典型美国少年。他和野孩子夏克，各干出了许多令人捧腹的妙事。像汤姆被罚粉刷围墙，竟施出诡计，不但使别的孩子心甘情愿代替他工作，还自动奉上谢礼。后来和夏克逃到荒岛去，人们以为他们淹死了，正在教堂为他们举行丧礼，而他们却躲在教堂的钟楼上偷听。这些顽皮的举动，虽然不能给我们做模范，但是，他为了正义，毅然地挺身出来作证人，拯救那无辜的罪犯沫夫彼得。并在顽皮之余，居然和夏克破获了一桩谋杀案，成为众人钦佩的小英雄。看来，汤姆也有值得我们学习的地方。

人总是会长大的，除了个儿长高了，身子强壮了以外，人的思想也在长。你对世界的看法不同了，懂事了，不再幼稚了。不过人是要越变越好才是。千万不能像历险记里的那个心狠手辣的坏蛋卓伊一样，他坏事做尽，人见人憎。但最后他还是恶有恶报，得到了一个活活饿死在山洞里的下场。

看完《汤姆索亚历险记》，我真羡慕汤姆能有如此有趣的经历。这本书让人看起来津津有味，甚至废寝忘食。我想，《汤姆索亚历险记》在你烦闷的时候或许能让你一笑解千愁。

Watching the les miserables, jean valjean tall image always emerge in front of my eyes. He is ready to help others, honest is good, good character, although due to the forced by life, had made some mistake, but this does not affect his personality, because he spent a lifetime in continuously improve their difficulties and adversity.

Im sad for jean valjean, for his newspaper, if jean valjean had life in socialist China, so his experience might not be so rough.

看完《悲惨世界》一书，冉阿让高大的形象始终浮现在我的眼前。他乐于助人，淳朴善良，品格高尚，虽然由于生活所迫，曾犯过一些错，但这并没有影响他的人格，因为他用了一生的时间在艰辛和逆境中不断地完善自己。

冉阿让失业了，因为生活贫因，他偷了一块面包，就被抓住关进监狱，万恶的旧社会!出狱后，一心想报复的他受教主的感化恢复了对生活的信心并立志从善，他来到蒙特亿，改名马德兰，开办工厂，成了富翁，帮助了许许多多的人，当上了市长。然而，为人正直的他由于不想让别人替他顶罪又被抓进监狱……

多么善良的冉阿让，他以德报怨，乐于助人，抚养孤女，不求回报。为了让珂赛特获得幸福，勇于坦言自己的真实身份，这需要多大的勇气，需要多大的爱心啊!虽然一再地受人们的误解和歧视，但冉阿让始终默默地遵守对主教的诺言，做一个正直，善良的人。

我为冉阿让而感动，如果我们都能像冉阿让那样勇敢面对自己的错误，尽自己所能去改正，以一颗博爱的心去看世界，那我们的世界将变得更美好。我为冉阿让而难过，为他报不平，如果冉阿让生活在社会主义的中国，那么他的经历也许就不会那么坎坷了。

《老人与海》讲述的一名孤独的老人出海已有八十四次，但是每一次都是一鱼不获，前四十次还有一位小男孩陪伴，但后来小男孩因父母的劝说不能和老人一起出海打鱼。老人在岸上只能和小男孩说话，在海上却只能自言自语。再第八十五次打鱼时，老人偶然碰到了一只马林鱼，老人虽然独力勇捕了一只十八英长的马林鱼，却无力驱杀争食的“牙利鬼”。他败了，但是带回去的马林残骸，向众渔夫见证了他虏获的战利品并非夸大，而是真正的光荣。故事结束时，老人不甘放弃，仍然和男孩准备在跨海出征。正如“乡愁诗人”余光中先生所说的：“《老人与海》真是一片刚阳﹑壮阔、紧添的杰作。”

Thoughts or reflections on reading Wuthering Heights

Wuthering Heights was written by Emily Bronte, it published in 1847.But at that time, it seemed to hold little promise, selling very poorly and receiving only a few mixed reviews. I found this in our school library, I chose this book because the title attracted me. Wuthering Heights is structured around two parallel love stories, the first half of the novel centering on the love between Catherine and Heathcliff, while the less dramatic second half features the developing love between young Catherine and Hareton. In contrast to the first, the latter tale ends happily, restoring peace and order to Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange. In the story, the two houses, Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange, represent opposing worlds and values.

I spent twenty days reading this book. After reading this book, I felt for Heathcliff at first. Heathcliff begins his life as a homeless orphan on the streets of Liverpool, and then he tyrannized by Hindley Earnshaw. But he becomes a villain when he acquires power and returns to Wuthering Heights with money and the trappings of a gentleman. His malevolence proves so great and long—lasting. As he himself points out, his abuse of Isabella—his wife is purely sadistic, as he amuses himself by seeing how much abuse she can take and still come cringing back for more.

Catherine represents wild nature, in both her high, lively spirits and her occasional cruelty. She loves Heathcliff so intensely that she claims they are the same person. However, her actions are driven in part by her social ambitions, which initially are awakened during her first stay at the Lintons, and which eventually compel her to marry Edgar. Catherine is free—spirited, beautiful, spoiled, and often arrogant, she is given to fits of temper, and she is torn between her both of the men who love her. The location of her coffin symbolizes the conflict that tears apart her short life. She is buried in a corner of the Kirkyard. In contrast to Catherine, Isabella Linton—Catherine’s sister—in—law represents culture and civilization, both in her refinement and in her weakness. Ultimately, she ruins her life by falling in love with Heathcliff. He never returns her feelings and treats her as a meretool in his quest for revenge on the Linton family.

Just as Isabella Linton serves as Catherine’s foil, Edgar Linton serves as Heathcliff’s. Edgar grows into a tender, constant, but cowardly man. He is almost the ideal gentleman. However, this full assortment of gentlemanly characteristics, along with his civilized virtues, proves useless in Edgar’s clashes with his foil. He sees his wife obviously in love with another man but unable to do anything to rectify the situation. Heathcliff, who gains power over his wife, sister , and daughter.

The whole story make people’s mood heavy. Fortunately, the end is happy.

The author Emily Bronte lived an eccentric, closely guarded life. She was born in 1818, two years after Charlotte—the author of Jane Eyre and a year and a half before her sister Anne, who also became an author. Her father worked as a church rector, and her aunt, who raised the Bronte children after their mother died, was deeply religious. Emily Bronte did not take to her aunt’s Christian fervor, the character of Joseph, a caricature of an evangelical, may have been inspired by her aunt’s religiosity. The Brontes lived in Haworth, a Yorkshire village in the midst of the moors. These wild, desolate expanses—later the setting of Wuthering Heights—made up the Brontes daily environment, and Emily lived among them her entire life. She died in 1848, at the age of thirty.

I like this book because it rest on the unforgettable characters. Wuthering Heights is based partly on the Gothic tradition, a style of literature that featured supernatural encounters, crumbling ruins, moonless nights, and grotesque imagery, seeking to create effects of mystery and fear. I would like to recommend this book to other readers.

《小王子》英语读后感1

Once when I was six years old, I saw a magnificent picture in a book,called True Stories from Nature, about the primeval forest. It was a picture of a boa constrictor in the act of swallowing an animal. Here is a copy of the drawing.

In the book it said:" Boa constrictors swallow their prey whole, without chewing it. After that they are not able to move, and they sleep through the six months that they need for digestion."

I pondered deeply, then, over the adventures of the jungle. And after some work with a colored pencil I succeeded in making my first drowing,My Drawing Number One. It looked like this:

I showed my masterpiece to the grown-ups, and asked them whether the drawing frightened them.

But they answered:"Frighten? Why should any one be frightened by a hat?"

My drawing was not a picture of a hat. It was a picture of a boa constrictor digesting an elephant. But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it, I made another drawing: I drew the inside of the boa constrictor,so that the grown-ups could see it clearly. They always need to have things explained. My Drawing Number Two looked like this:

The grown-ups response,this time, was to adviseme to lay aside my drawing of boa constrictors,whether from the inside or the outside and devote myself instead to geography, history, arithmetic and grammar. That is why, at the age of six, I gave up what might have been a magnificent career as a painter. I had been disheartened by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two. Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it si tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.

So then I chose another profession, and learned to pilot airplanes.

I have flown a little over all parts of the world:and it is ture that geography has been very useful to me. At a glance I can distinguish China from Arizona. If one gets lost in the night,such knowledge is valuable.

In the course of this life I have had a great many encounters with a great many people who have been concerned with matters of consequence. I have lived a great deal among grown-ups. I have seen them intimately, close at hand. And hasnt much improved my opinion of them.

Whenever Imet one of them who seemed to me at all clearsighted, I tried the experiment of showing him my Drowing Number One. which I have always kept. I would try to find out, so, if this was a person of true understanding. But, whoever it was, he ,or she, would always say:

"That is a hat."

Then I would never talkto that people about boa constrictors, or primeval forest, or stars. I would bring myself down to his level. I would talk to him about bridge, and golf, and politics, and neckties. And the grown-ups would be greatly pleased to have met such a sensible man.

《小王子》英语读后感2

This is a fairytale whose distribution volume is only second to The Bible. It’s been translated to versions of many other languages. And I gather there must be something special, something really great about it. It’s this conviction that drove me to read it at the first beginning. Well, with due respect to the author, I failed to see how this fairytale be worthy of our attention, despite the fact that many readers claimed this book to be designed for adults.

Anyway, as a well-acknowledged book, it must possess unique feature to maintain it’s position. And it’s reputation and popularity will by no means be destroyed by what an unknown man says. I will talk about the main contents of the book, and the inspiration it renders as usual.

This book mainly tells us the experience of a prince from a tiny planet, who traveled to many other planets and finally came to the earth and met the pilot in a desert. The prince and the pilot became good friends, and the pilot gradually got to know the feeling and experience of his friend. Before he came to the earth, little prince had been to other 6 little planets where he made acquaintance with some strange people. The first man he met was a king on a little planet, yet he claimed to be the king of the space and ridiculously justified his unshakable governance over all. The second person was a man of vanity, who enjoyed compliments of any form without considering whether it’s sincere or not. The third person was an alcoholic who tried to forget the fact that he’s addicted to acohol by drinking like a fish. The fourth person was an abosolute money-oriented businessman, who cared nothing but his fortune. Next came the lamp-lighter who performed his duty blindly. The last one was a geographer who knew too much about geography to solve a real problem related to it. These six people each represented one kind of person like us. The authorsatirized people’s conceit, emptiness, fakeness, innocence and blindness through the tone of a child.

I see eye to eye with the author in that the cause of people’s loneliness can be concluded to the negligence of the bonds that connects them. People are supposed to care about each other, cherish what’s really important for them, and be grateful for the happiness that they’ve gained. We all believe knowledge and experience enable us to see clearly and make right judgements all the time. But we may sometimes lose the right to speak straighforwardly, think creatively or love courageously resulting from what we’ve experienced. That why in our middle school textbooks, it’s the little kid that breaks the illusion of the emperor by saying ”but mum, he ain’t were anything”.

When I was a child, I was definitely a good boy who went home on time after school and did his homework and never tried anything without mom’s permission. And now I am a grown-up, and still I am a good man, at least, that’s what I heard. Sometimes when I was lonely and I began to think about my childhood, then all the happiness and care-free life came back to me as it were yesterday. Kids that once accompanied me during my childhood now become fathers and mothers of their kids and I myself am a child no more. Thinking about all these things have made me moody. There’re changes happening in our lives whether we are happy about it or not.

People told me life is a journey which will never stop once it’s started. What’s left behind are happiness and sorrow, pride and shame, success and regret. There’s good old time to reminisce and there’s sad hours that reminds us of the pain. Your feeling makes them real, and you know you lived.

I want to conclude by saying some positive words that each yestersday used to be today, and each today is the future of yesterday, so making the most of today is the best way to cherish your lives. Our mortal beings are doomed to die. It’s not sad, instead, death it’s just a process of our lives. After all, we’ve lived our lives and it’s what we do and how we think that determine who we are.
