儿子情人》是英国作家戴维·赫伯特·劳伦斯创作的一部长篇小说。以下是小编带来的儿子与情人英语读后感,希望对你有帮助。

Sons and Lovers was D.H. Lawrences first major novel. His only major novel, some would say; but even readers who are out of sympathy with him, or who feel that his gifts were not really those of a novelist, have usually been happy to make a wholehearted exception in this one case.

It is a book that goes straight to the point, at the outset and at almost every subsequent stage. Between them his two methods leave us in no doubt where the heart of his story is to be located.

Gertrude Morel is a woman of high principle, of character and refinement. Her husband is a miner who can barely read and write. Marrying him for passion, she is bitterly disappointed by his rough manners, his drinking, what she can only see as his weakness and irresponsibility. When the book opens, the marriage has already turned into a battlefield, and the love she has withdrawn from Morel is being redirected toward the first of her children. In the previous chapters, Gertrude Morel is most devoted to her eldest son William. But after he dies of a skin disease, she plunges into grief. Seeing William is gone, she rededicates her life to Paul, and this revives her. She teaches her son art, education, and social advancement. She lives for her sons and will do anything to see them make their way in the world.

Mrs. Morel is terribly tired of her involvement in Paul and Miriams relationship and decides to stop intervening. She knows that Paul is an adult now and that there is nothing she can do to stop Paul from seeing Miriam. She feels that she can never forgive her son for sacrificing himself to love Miriam. As it mentions above, Paul has begun to realize how much his mother affects his life. Her deep love for him has made her a part of himself that when he wants to break free from his mother, he is unable to get away from her. His mother is ingrained into his very soul.

That’s to say, his mother influences Paul very much, and which proves to be for worse to him. When Paul finds girlfriend, he always find the girl who takes after his mother, not only the out look but also in mental. But in fact he could not find such girl. So it lead to that he never willing to be bound to Miriam in marriage or to Clara in physical love. At last Paul has begun to realize how much his mother affects his life. Her deep love for him has made her a part of himself that when he wants to break free from his mother, he is unable to get away from her. His mother is ingrained into his very soul.

To sum up, Paul’s mother has some bad influence on him and to a large extent changes his life.

暑假期间有一部影片《哪吒之魔童降世》不断被刷新中国动画片的票房纪录,我们全家也禁不住诱惑跑到电影院一探究竟,看看它到底有多火。

先从动画片的主人公说起吧,哪吒被改头换面,打破了以往它在我们心目中可爱的造型,这个小哪吒脸上透露出一股邪恶,长着黑眼圈,走起路来手插裤兜吊儿郎当的,一副目中无人的坏模样。其实在影片中,他斩妖除魔、为民除害、保护弱小还是让我们心里暖暖的。这部电影有笑点也有泪点,描述的是天地孕育出两颗混元珠魔丸和灵丸,天师在魔丸上下了天劫咒,三年后便会死去。

身为魔丸的哪吒注定要是一个悲剧了,他拜太乙真人为师学法术,百姓们都称他为妖怪,见到他就躲起来,哪吒从小就没有朋友,很孤单。他也曾多次想为民除害,可是往往都是好心办了坏事,被老百姓们误解,李靖怕他再惹事生非,索性就把哪吒关了起来并严加看管。另一枚混元珠———灵珠就是敖丙,他也是哪吒唯一的朋友。敖丙被他的父王和师傅申公豹教唆去摧毁陈塘关,是哪吒阻止了这一切,他不但改变自己的命运也改变了整个陈塘关老百姓的命运。

影片的最后,天雷降临,那句:“去你个鸟命,我命由我不由天,是魔是仙我自己说了才算!”感动了在座的每一位,是啊,有些人因为命运的不公而选择轻生,或者,接受不了现实的人活不出任何光彩。但也有些人,对命运顽抗。比如谈迁,编写的《国榷》被小偷盗走,下落不明,这是他呕心沥血20多年才写出来的,不过谈迁不认命,不抱怨,马上从困境中走了出来,励志要重新撰写,最终著成了一篇更精彩的《国榷》。我们就要学习这种精神,不向命运低头,不服输,不认输。

你问我命是什么,我不知道,但我知道不认命,就是哪吒的命。

Pride and Prejudice is a chefdoeuvre. But my first impression of this story was from screen.

Its long long ago, maybe before I can read english books. I dont remember which movie edition I had seen. But I was impressed by the music, the scenery and the costume. I was very favor of a section of music in its balls. Its pretty brisk, liked a wonderful song of a bird. Regarding to the characters, I liked Elizabeth, the heroine,though I didnt think shes beautiful. But shes smart. However, I didnt pay much attention to the plot. I thought its so long that it made me impatient and bored. By now, I havent read the whole story in English or its Chinese version, either. I owe it to my prejudice.

In fact, I didnt understand the story at that time. I didnt know why it called Pride and Prejudice. Of course someone was pride, but I didnt find where s the prejudice. I thought its normal, the way people treated each other in that. I considered prejudice would be very disgusting. But to the movie everthing was OK in my minds, except its length. Now, I think I have understood more about it. Im a prejudiced person so I cant find wheres wrong. I merely like to do the things I like. Everytime I meet somebody or something,my thinking about he or it all depends on my foregone experience and my mood of the time. I like it so just like it, if not so just not. Im a person thinking by heart not by brain. What is worse, I actually didnt think its wrong. I thought everyone is all like that.Everyone has his special way to cognize the world. So its individuality, not prejudice. But I think something is wrong. Though everyone can judge in the way he likes, he cant ignore other ones. You can like what you like and hate what you hate, but you should be objective when you meet external world. I think it means that you should consider things roundly, not just partial. Individuality is different from prejudice. What is it? I need to think more.

Although I the wisdom of the people, but I always just a dog......" the modest, at the beginning of the text, who became the first let a person standing read on reason. Its called enzo, a hybrid terrier.

I wait for you in the rain with a dog, tells the story of it, master enzo and Danny together through wind and rain vicissitudes: lonely when Dannys wife died, when her parents against him, when he is in chains and body was suddenly arrested, or when he got sick was disabled car, whether it is happy time, difficult years, still standing watch, no sweet without sweat, zorn, and Danny to each other all the, they through the exchange of mind, convey love each other, and the power of love for each other, let the tragedy to contain. When I closed the book, and her eyes filled with tears, heart like lens at the love scenes.

Enzo eyes, let a person see the ordinary in the warm happiness, weak consistency; So implicit yet affectionate and so difficult but insisted that the value of life is so beautiful, are thick. "I will wait for you in the rain" is a book of gently flap tranquil, but meaningful. "

It "said:" your heart decides what you see. We are the creators of our own destiny."

A lot of things, all in the setback, as long as you have your willpower, your strong, even if there is difficulty you can pass, after the storm, a rainbow will appear, no matter what to do, we strive to the end. Beat all want to overthrow their frustration, defeat fear, go forward!

Why cant do? Because your heart give you draw a line: I must do it. So, you see is the failure of himself. Why dont you open your heart, to find the ideal himself, to one of your goals in the past, it doesnt matter fell, fate is not held by yourself?

“我是一条狗,我有人的智慧,只可惜单单因为缺了两个指头,我拧不开门,开不了电视,按不了遥控板,写不了字……只因为缺了大拇指,我只能做一条狗。虽然我有人的智慧,但我永远只是一条狗…… ” 这种温和的开头文字,成为了让人痴痴读下去的第一个理由。它叫恩佐,一条杂交梗犬。

《我在中等你》以一只狗的口吻,讲述了它,恩佐和主人丹尼相依度过的风雨悲欢:当丹尼的妻子凄凉死去, 当岳父母和他反目成仇,当他镣铐加身被突然逮捕,或当佐恩得病遭车撞行动不便,无论是幸福时光、困顿岁月,还是痴痴守望、苦尽甘来,佐恩和丹尼彼此之间自始自终不离不弃,他们通过心灵的交流,彼此传递着爱,给对方爱的力量,让悲剧得以遏制。当我热泪盈眶地合上此书,心中涌动的是一幕幕爱的镜头。

恩佐的眼,竟让人看见了平凡中的温暖幸福、脆弱坚毅;如此含蓄却又深情,如此困难却又坚持,生命的可贵因之美丽,也因之厚实。《我在雨中等你》是一本轻轻撩动心海的书,却意味深长。」

它“说”过:“你的心,决定你看见的。我们是自己命运的创造者。”

很多事情,都于挫折并存,只要你拥有你的毅力,你的坚强,即使有困难你都可以通过,经历了暴风雨,彩虹才会出现,不管做什么事,我们都要努力到底。击败所有想打倒自己的挫折,击败内心的恐惧,勇往直前!

为什么会做不到?正是因为你的心给你划定了界限:这件事我一定做不到。所以,你看到的只是那个失败的自己。为什么不敞开心扉,找到那个理想中的自己,向你的目标冲过去,跌倒了也不要紧,命运不是由自己来掌握的吗?选择爬起来,那么你的前面将是一片光芒;颓废下去,你永远走不到终点。

有那样一位撑杆跳运动员,他很厉害,每一次比赛都能刷新记录,世界纪录都是他创造的。他曾经说过:“如果我一开始就知道这次要跳这么高,那我一定跳不到现在这么高。”是啊,正因为他敞开了自己的内心,没有限制自己,才会超越极限!

你的心,决定你看见的。我们是自己命运的创造者。合上书,恩佐的脸庞仿佛就在眼前。“爸爸,我们去打球。”球技不怎么的的我,拿起了球拍,心中充满了自信和勇气,仿佛温柔又善解人意的恩佐正看着我,微笑……

Recently, I have reading the book "Jane Eyre”。 Although I forgot some details in the book, Jane gave me deeply impression, I admire her very much. After that the teacher also told us to put the play in to a movie, and then we all can touch each hero’s soul in the book. The play it mainly tell us how Jane is growing up when suffering from great difficulties and painless. whats more, it is impressed me that she still love her master even if he is blind at last due to rescue his mad wife.

And I like the Classic lines what Jane said to Mr. Rochester :"Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?--a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!--I have as much soul as you,--and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you.

I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh;--it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at Gods feet, equal,--as we are!" its so beautiful, Jane is a girl who will never lose confidence in life and always sensible when handling with some motional problems. Jane was huge in my heart. She can control her life and fate. She knew how to continue her life and she got it!

Maybe after what she told me I have known that what love is and how to love and to be loved! The book is a book worth of reading, so all in all let’s enjoy it.

童话

——致安徒生老人

当北方的稀稀疏疏的阳光,从你枝叶纷飞的肩头撒下来,那些默默的枝叶便唱起一支支忧郁的歌了,仿佛你灰白的头发,在哥本哈根的秋风里摇颤……

童话树!

童话树长满童话,长满会讲故事的叶子。

童话树很老很老了,抱着全世界的孩子们,让他们像小鸟在这一片温湿的树阴里孵化各自的梦。

连他们的父母在尝了那种果实后,心也都变的很湿润……

童话树仿佛生长着童话杆菌,一种流行病在世界传染……

于是,便有了许许多多多愁善感的季节,有了葱笼的幻想,有了爱,诗一样的浪漫——

海是迷人的。听小人鱼唱忧伤的歌,她的歌在希望中消逝。深深的大海沉下巫婆的刀子。洁白的泡沫……

爱丽莎用沉默编织爱的披甲。十一只天鹅从远方来,变成十一个哥哥。柴火堆的每一根木头开放红玫瑰……

新年的太阳正在升起来,而卖火材的小孩在圣诞节的夜晚冻死了。丹麦的冬天很冷……

童话树!

你创造了天国——不是梦。缥缈而陌生的梦,它也许就在人间……

也许,谁也走不出你忧郁的歌了,走不出你树阴覆盖的年轻的世界。

哦,童话树!

篇11:老人与海英语读后感

全文共 9113 字

+ 加入清单

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 .

在佛罗伦萨城①里,离大公爵广场不远,有一条小小的横街,我想它是叫做波尔塔·罗萨。在这条街上的一个蔬菜市场前面,有一只艺术性非常强的铜猪。这个动物因为年代久远,已经变成了墨绿色。一股新鲜清亮的水从它嘴里喷出来。它的鼻子发着光,好像有人把它擦亮了似的。事实上也是如此:成千上万的小孩子和穷人,常常用手抓住这动物的鼻子,把嘴凑上去喝水。当你看到一个半裸着的天真孩子紧紧地抱着这只好看的动物,把鲜红的嘴唇凑到它的鼻子上的时候,这真是一幅美丽的图画。

无论什么人,一到佛罗伦萨来就很容易找到这块地方。他只须问一声他所碰到的头一个乞丐,就可以找到这只古铜猪。

这是一个冬天的夜晚,夜深了。山上都盖满了雪;可是月亮还在照着,而且意大利的月光,跟阴惨惨的北欧冬天的日光比起来,也不见得有什么逊色。不,比那还要好,因为空气在发着光,使人感到轻快;而在北欧呢,那种寒冷、灰色、像铅一样的阴沉气氛,把我们压到地上——压到又寒又湿的、将来总有一天会埋葬我们的棺材的地上。

在公爵的花园里,在一片松树林下面——这儿有一千株玫瑰在冬天开着花——有一个衣衫褴楼的孩子,他坐了一整天。他是意大利的一个缩影:那么美丽,满脸微笑,但是极端穷苦。他是又饥又渴,谁也不给他一个毫子。天黑了的时候,这花园的门要关了,看守人就把他赶出来。他站在亚尔诺河②的桥上,沉思了好久。他望着星星——它们在他和这座美丽的大理石桥之间的水上闪耀着。

他向那个铜猪走去。他半跪在地上,用双手抱着它的脖子,同时把小嘴凑到它亮光光的鼻子上去,喝了一大口新鲜水。附近有几片生菜叶子和一两个栗子:这就是他的晚餐。这时街上什么人也没有,只有他一个人。他骑在铜猪的背上,腰向前弯,他长满了望发的头掘到这动物的头上。在不知不觉之间,他就睡去了。

这是半夜。铜猪动了一下。于是他就听到它很清楚地说:“你这小家伙,骑稳啦,我可要开始跑了!”它就真的背着他跑起来了。这真是一次很滑稽的旅行。他们先跑到大公爵广场上去。背着那位大公爵塑像的大铜马高声地嘶鸣了一阵。老市政府门框上的彩色市徽射出光来,像透亮的图案;米开朗基罗的“大卫”③在挥动掷石器④。这些东西中有一种奇异的生命在搏动着!表现珀尔修斯⑤和萨比尼人的⑥被蹂躏的一系列的古铜像,不仅仅都有生命,而且还发出一阵死亡的叫声,在这个孤寂的、美丽的广场上震响。

铜猪在乌菲齐宫⑦旁的拱道下面停下来了——从前的贵族常常到这儿过狂欢节。

“骑稳啦!”这动物说,“骑稳啦,因为我们现在要上楼了。”这小家伙一半儿高兴,一半儿吃惊,说不出一句话来。

他们走进一条很长的画廊。这地方他很熟悉,因为他曾经来过。墙上挂满了画;这儿还有许多全身像和半身像。它们被最明亮的灯光照着,好像是在白天一样。不过,当通到旁边房间的门打开的时候,那景象真是再美丽也没有了。这孩子记得这儿的华丽景象,不过在今天夜里,一切更显得非凡地壮丽。

这儿立着一个可爱的裸体妇人,她是那么美,只有大自然和最伟大的艺术家才能把她创造出来。她的美丽的肢体在轻柔地移动;她的脚下有海豚在跳跃;她的双眼射出永恒不朽的光芒。世人把她叫作美第奇的“维纳斯”⑧。她的两旁立着许多大理石像——它们都被注人了生命的精灵。这些都是美丽的裸体男子;有一个正在磨剑,因此他被叫做磨创人。另一系列的雕像是一群搏斗的武士;斗士们都在磨剑,他们都要争取这位美的女神。

这孩子在这种壮观面前感到惊奇。墙上射出种种的光彩,一切都有生命,都能动作。维纳斯——现世的维纳斯像——丰满而又热情,正如提香⑨见到她时一样,显出双重的形象。这真是一种奇观。这是两个美丽女人的画像:她们娇美的、棵着的肢体伸在柔软的垫子上;她们的胸脯在起伏地动着,头也在动着,弄得浓密的馨发垂到圆润的肩上,同时那一双双乌黑的眼睛表示出她们炽热的内心。不过没有任何一张画敢走出画框。美的女神、斗士和磨创人留在自己的原位上,因为圣母、耶稣和圣约翰所射出的荣光,把他们罩住了。这些神圣的画像已经不再是画像了,他们就是神本身。

从这一个回到那一个殿,是说不尽的光彩!是说不尽的美丽!这小家伙把这些东西全都看了,因为铜猪是一步一步地走过这些美和这些光。下一幅画总是冲淡头一幅画的印象。只有一幅图画在他的灵魂里面深深地生下了根,这是因为它里面有很多幸福的孩子——而这小家伙有一次在大白天里曾经对这些孩子点过头。

有许多人在这幅画面前漠不关心地走过,而这幅画却是一个诗的宝库。它表现救世主走向地狱。不过他周围的人并不是受难者,而是邪教徒。这幅画是佛罗伦萨人安季奥罗·布龙切诺⑩绘的。它里面最美的东西是孩子面上的表情——他们认为自己能走进天国的那种信心;有两个小家伙已经拥抱在一起,还有一个在对那个站在他下面的伸着手,似乎在说:“我要到天国去了!”年纪大的人都站在那儿犹疑,有的在希望,有的在主耶稣面前卑微地低着头。

这孩子把这幅画看得比任何画都久,铜猪静静地站在画的前面。这时有一个低微的叹息声发出来了:它是从这幅画里发出来的呢,还是从这动物发出来的?小家伙对那些微笑着的孩子们高举起手来……于是铜猪就背着他跑出去了,一直跑出那个敞开着的大门。

“我感谢你和祝福你,你——可爱的动物!”小家伙说,同时把铜猪拍了几下。它就砰!砰!跳下了台阶。

“我也感谢你和祝福你!”铜猪说。“我帮助了你,你也帮助了我呀,因为只有当一个天真的孩子骑在我背上的时候,我才能有力量跑动!是的。你看吧,我还能走到圣母画像面前那盏灯的光亮下面去呢。什么地方我都可以把你带去;只有教堂我不能进去!不过,只要你在我身上,我站在外面就可朝着敞开的大门看见里面的东西了。请你不要从我的背上溜下来吧;因为如果你这样做,我就会停下来死掉,像你白天在波尔塔·罗萨看到我的那个样子。”

“我不离开你,我亲爱的朋友!”小家伙说。于是他们就以飞快的速度跑过佛罗伦萨的街道,一直跑到圣克鲁采教堂前面的广场上。

教堂的门自动地向两边开了,祭坛上的灯光射到教堂外面来,一直射到这孤独的广场上。

教堂左边的一个墓碑上发出一道奇异的强光,无数移动着的星星在它周围形成一道光圈。墓上有一个纹章发出光辉,一架以绿色为背景的红色梯子射出火一般的光焰,这就是伽利略⑾的坟墓。这是一个朴素的墓碑,不过这绿地上的红色梯子是一种极有意义的纹章:它好像就代表艺术,因为艺术的道路总是经过一个灼热的梯子通到天上去的。一切心灵的先知⑿都升到天上,像先知伊里亚⒀一样。

在教堂的右边,刻满了花纹的石棺上的每一个半身像,似乎都具有生命。这儿立着米开朗基罗;那儿立着戴有桂冠的但了、阿尔菲爱里⒁和马基雅弗利⒂,因为在这儿,伟人们——意大利的光荣——都是并排地躺在一起。这是一座华丽的教堂,比佛罗伦萨的大理石主教堂更美丽,但是没有那样宽大。

那些大理石刻的衣服似乎在飘动,那些巨大的石像似乎把头抬得更高,在黑夜的歌声和音乐中,朝着那明亮的、射出光彩的祭坛凝望——这儿有一群穿着白衣的孩子在挥动着金制的香炉。强烈的香烟从教堂流到外面空旷的广场上。

这孩子向这闪耀着的光辉伸出手来。在这同时,铜猪又开始奔跑:他得把它紧紧地抱着。风在他的耳边呼啸;他听到教堂关门的时候,门上的枢轴发出嘎吱的响声。在这同时,他的知觉似乎离开了他,他打了一个寒颤,就醒了。

这是早晨。他仍然坐在铜猪的背上,但他差不多已经要滚下来了。这只猪仍然像过去一样,立在波尔塔·罗萨的那块老地方。

这孩子一想起那个他称为“母亲”的女人,心中就充满了恐惧和战栗。她昨天叫他出去讨几个钱回来,到现在他却一个铜子也没有弄到手,并且还感到又饥又渴。他又把铜猪的脖子拥抱了一次,吻了吻它的鼻子,对它点点头,然后就走开了。他走进一条最狭小的街道——狭小得只够让一只驮着东西的驴子走过去。一扇用铁皮包着的大门半掩身。他走。进去,爬上了砖铺的梯子——梯子两边的墙非常脏,只有一根光滑的绳子算是梯子的扶手。他一直爬到晒着许多破衣的阳台上。从这儿又有一道梯子通到下边的院子。这里有一口水井,同时有许多铁丝从这口井牵到各层的楼上。许多水桶并排地悬着;轴转格格地响起来,于是水桶就在空中东摇西摆,水洒得满院子都是。另外还有一道要倒的砖梯通到楼上。有两个俄国水手正在兴匆匆地走下楼来,几乎把这个可怜的孩子撞倒了:他们在这儿狂欢了一夜,正要回到船上去。一个年纪不小的胖女人,长着一头粗硬的黑发,送他们下楼。

“你带了什么东西回来?”她问这孩子。

“请不要生气吧!”他哀求着。“我什么东西也没有讨到——什么东西也没有!”他紧抱着“母亲”的衣服,好像想要吻它似的。

他们走进一个小房间里去。我不想来描写它。我只想说一件事情:房间里有一个带把手的土体子,里面烧着炭火。它的名字叫做“玛丽多”⒃。她把这钵子抱在怀里,暖着自己的手指。随后她就用手肘把这孩子一推。

“你总会带回几个钱吧?”她问。

孩子哭起来。她用脚踢了他几下,他哭得更厉害起来。

“请你放安静一点,不然我就会把你这个尖叫的脑袋敲破!”她举起手中抱着的火钵打过去。孩子发出一声尖叫,倒在地上。这时一位邻居走进来了,她也抱着一个“玛丽多”。

“菲丽姬达,你又在对这孩子干什么?”

“这孩子是我的!”菲丽姬达回答说。“只要我高兴,就可以把他打死,也可以把你打死,贾妮娜!”

于是她挥舞着火钵。另一位也举起了火钵,采取自卫行动。这两个火钵互相殴打,弄得碎片、火星和火灰在屋里四处飞扬。可是孩子就在这时候溜出门,穿过天井,跑出去了。这可怜的孩子一直在跑,连气也喘不过来。他在圣·克鲁采教堂面前停下来。头天晚上这教堂的门还是为他开着的。他走进去。一切都在放射着光辉。他在右边的第一个坟旁跪下来。这是米开朗基罗的坟。他马上放声大哭。有的人来,有的人去。他们念着弥撒,可是谁也没有理会这孩子。只有一个年老的市民停住望了他一眼,随后也像其余的人一样,离去了。

饥渴折磨着这孩子;他已经没有气力,病了。他爬到墙和大理石墓碑之间的一个角落里,睡着了。这时已经将近黄昏,有一个人拉了他一下,把他惊醒了。他跳起来,原来刚才那位老市民正站在他面前。

“你病了吗?你的家在什么地方?你在这儿待了一整天吗?”这是这位老人所问的许多问题中的几个问题。

他回答了。这位老人把他带到附近一条偏僻的街上的一个小屋子里去。他们来到一个制造手套的店里。当他们走进去的时候,有一个妇人在忙着缝纫。有一只小小的白哈巴狗——它身上的毛剃得精光,人们看得见它鲜红的皮肤——在桌上跳来跳去,又在这孩子面前翻起跟头来。

“天真的动物马上就相互认识了。”女人说。

她抚摸着孩子和小狗。这对善良的夫妇给这孩子一些食物和饮料,同时说他可以在这儿过一夜,第二天裘赛比爸爸可以到他母亲面前去讲情。他在一个简陋的小床上睡觉,不过对于他这个常常在硬石板上睡觉的人来说,这床简直是太舒服了。他睡得很好,梦见那些美丽的绘画和那只铜猪。

裘赛比爸爸第二天早上出去了。这个可怜的孩子对于这件事并不高兴,因为他知道他出去的目的是要把他送回到他母亲那儿去。于是他哭起来,吻着那只快乐的小狗。那妇人点点头,表示同意他们俩的行为。

裘赛比爸爸带回了什么消息呢?他跟他的太太讲了很久的话,而她一直在点着头,抚摸着孩子的脸。“他是一个很可爱的孩子!”她说。“他也能像你一样,成为一个很能干的手套匠人!你看,他有多么细致的手指!圣母注定他要成为一位手套制造家。”

孩子留在这家里,妇人教他缝手套;他吃得很好,睡得也很好,而且很快乐,他还开始跟“最美的人儿”——就是这只小狗的名字——开玩笑呢;可是妇人伸出手指来吓他,骂他,还和他生气。这触动了孩子的心事。他在他的小房间里默默地坐着。房间面对一条晒着许多皮的街道;窗子上有很多的铁栏杆。他睡不着,因为他在想念那只铜猪。这时他忽然听到外面有一阵“扑嗒!扑嗒!”的声音。这一定是那只猪了。他跳到窗子那儿去,可是什么也看不见——它已经走过去了。

“快帮助先生提他的颜料匣子吧。”太太第二天早上对孩子说。这时他们的一位年轻邻居——一位画家——正提着颜料匣子走过。

孩子拿起颜料匣子,跟着这位画家走了;他们走到美术陈列馆,登上台阶——那晚他曾经骑着铜猪到这台阶上来过,所以他记得很清楚。他认得出那些半身像和绘画,那座美丽的大理石雕的维纳斯,和那用彩色活灵活现地绘出的维纳斯。他又看到了圣母、救世主和圣约翰。

他们在布龙切诺绘的那幅像面前站着,一声不响。在这幅画里,耶稣走到下界,许多孩子在他的周围微笑,幸福地等待走进天国。这个穷苦的孩子也在微笑,因为他觉得好像天国就在眼前。

“你现在回去吧!”画家站了一会儿,把画架架好以后说。

“我能看看你画画吗?”孩子问。“我可以看看你在这张白帆布上把那幅画画下来吗?”

“我现在还不能马上就画,”画家回答说。他取出一支黑粉笔。他的手在很快地挥动,眼睛在打量那张伟大的绘画。虽然他只画出几根很细的线条,救世主的形象却现出来了,像在那张彩色画里一样。

“你为什么不走呢?”画家问。

这孩子默默不语地走回家去。他坐在桌子旁边学习缝手套。

但是他整天在想那个美术陈列馆。因此有时他的针刺着了他的手指,使他显得很笨拙。不过他再也不去逗着“最美的人儿”玩了。当黄昏到来、门还是开着的时候,他就偷偷地溜出去。这是一个很寒冷、但是星光满天的晚上,既美丽,又明亮。他走过几条静寂的街道,不久就走到铜猪面前来了。他对它弯下腰来,在它光滑的鼻子上吻了一下,于是他就骑上它的背。

“你这个幸福的动物!”他说;“我是多么想念着你啊!我们今天晚上要去逛逛才好。”

铜猪立着一动也不动。新鲜的泉水从它的嘴里喷出来。这小家伙像一个骑师似地坐着。这时他觉得有人在拉他的衣服。他朝旁边一看,原来是“最美的人儿”来了——那个毛剃得光光的“最美的人儿”。这小狗也是跟他一道偷偷地溜出屋子的,而他却没有发现。“最美的人儿”叫了几声,好像是在说:“你看我也来了,为什么你坐在这儿呢?”这条小狗在这块地方比一条凶猛的蟒蛇还要使这孩子害怕。像那位老太太说的一样,“最美的人儿”居然跑到街上来了,而且还没有穿上衣服哩!结果会怎样呢?小狗除非披上了一块羔羊皮,它在冬天是从来不出门的。这块羔羊皮是专为它裁制的。它是用一根红缎带系在小狗的脖子上的,此外还有一个蝴蝶结和小铃挡;另外还有二根带子系在它的肚子上。当小狗在冬天穿着这样的衣服和女主人一块散步的时候,它很像一只羔羊。现在“最美的人儿”却在外面而没有穿上衣服!这会产生一个什么结果呢?他做了许许多多的推想。不过他又吻了这铜猪一次,把“最美的人儿”抱进怀里;这小东西冻得发抖,因此这孩子尽快地向前跑。

“你抱着一件什么东西跑得这样快?”他在路上遇着的两个宪兵问他,同时“最美的人儿”也叫起来。“你从什么地方偷来这只漂亮的小狗的?”他们问,并且把小狗从他手中夺过来。

“啊,请把小狗还给我吧!”孩子哀求着。

“假如你没有偷它,你可以回去告诉家里的人,叫他们到警察局来领取。”接着他们把地址告诉他,就带着“最美的人儿”走了。

这真是糟糕透顶的事儿!孩子不知道应该跳到亚尔诺河里去呢,还是回家去坦白一番好。他想,他们一定会把他打死的。

“不过我倒很愿意被打死。如果我死了,我可以去找耶稣和圣母!”于是他回到家里去,准备被打死。

门已经关上了,他的手又够不到门环。街上什么人也没有,只有一块松石头。他就拿起这块石头敲着门。

“是谁?”里面有人问。

“是我,”他说。“‘最美的人儿’逃走了。请开门,打死我吧!”

大家为这“最美的人儿”感到非常狼狈,特别是太太。她马上朝那经常挂着小狗的衣服的墙上看。那块羔羊皮还在那儿。

“‘最美的人儿’在警察局里!”她大声叫起来,“你这个坏蛋!你怎样把它弄出去的,它会冻死的!可怜娇嫩的小东西,现在落到粗暴的丘八手中去了!

爸爸马上就出去了——太太恸哭起来,孩子在流着眼泪。住在这幢房子里的人全都跑来了,那位画家也来了:他把孩子抱在他双腿中间,问了他许多问题。他从这孩子的一些不连贯的话语中听到关于铜猪和美术陈列馆的整个故事——这故事当然是不太容易理解的。画家安慰了孩子一番,同时也劝了劝这位太太。不过,等到爸爸把在丘八们手中待过一阵子的“最美的人儿”带回家以后,她才算安静下来。随后大家就非常高兴。画家把这可怜的孩子抚摸了一会儿,同时送给他几张图画。

啊,这些真是可爱的作品——这么些滑稽的脑袋!……特别是那只栩栩如生的铜猪。啊。什么东西也没有比这好看!只是寥寥几笔就使它立在纸上,甚至它后面的房子也被画出来了。

“啊,如果一个人能够描写和绘画,那么他就可以把整个的世界摆在他面前了!”

第二天,当他身边没有人的时候,这小家伙拿出一支铅笔,在图画的背面临摹了那幅铜猪,而他居然做得很成功!——当然有些不太整齐,有点歪歪倒倒,一条腿粗,一条腿细,虽然如此,它的形象仍然很清楚。他自己对这成绩感到高兴。他看得很清楚,这支铅笔还不能随心所欲地灵活使用。不过,到第三天,原来的铜猪旁边又出现了另一只,而这一只比头一只要好一百倍,至于第三只,它是非常好,一眼就可以看得出来。

可是手套的生意并不兴旺;他的跑腿工作尽可以不慌不忙地去做。铜猪已经告诉了他:任何图画都可以在纸上画下来,而佛罗伦萨本身就是一个画册,只要人愿意去翻翻它就成。三一广场⒄上有一个细长的圆柱,上面是正义的女神的雕像。她的眼睛被布蒙着,手中拿着一个天平。马上她就被移到纸上来了,而移动她的人就正是手套制造匠的这个小学徒。他的画越积越多,不过全都是些静物。有一天,“最美的人儿”跳到他面前来了。

“站着不要动!”他说,“我要使你变得美丽,同时叫你留在我的画册里面。”

不过“最美的人儿”却不愿意站着不动,所以他就把它绑起来。它的头和尾巴都被绑住了,因此它就乱跳乱叫,结果他不得不把绳子拉得更紧。这时太太就来了。

“你这恶毒的孩子!——可怜的动物!”她这时能够说出来的就只是这句话。

她把这孩子推开,踢了他一脚,叫他滚出去——他,这个最忘恩负义的废料和最恶毒的孩子。于是她一把眼泪一把鼻涕地吻了这只被缢得半死的小小的“最美的人儿”。

正在这时候,那位画家走上楼来了。故事的转折点就从这时候开始。

1834年,佛罗伦萨的美术学院举行了一个展览会。有两张并排放着的画吸引住了许多观众。较小的那幅画表现一个快乐的小孩坐着作画——他的模特儿是一个毛剃得很光的小白哈巴狗;不过这东西不愿意静静地站着,因此它的脖子和尾巴便被一根线绑起来了。这幅画里有真理,也有生活,因而大家都对它感兴趣。画这幅画的人据说是一个年轻的佛罗伦萨的居民。他小时是一个流浪在街头的孤儿,由一个老手套匠养大,他是自修学好绘画的。一位驰名的画家发现了这个天才,而他发现的时候恰恰是这个孩子要被赶出去的时候,因为他把太太的一只心爱的小哈巴狗绑起来,想要它做个模特儿。

手套制造匠的徒弟成了一个伟大的画家:这幅画本身证明了这一点,而在它旁边一幅较大的画更证明了这一点。这里面只是绘着一个人像——一个衣衫褴楼的美貌的孩子,他睡在街上,靠着波尔塔·罗萨街上的那只铜猪⒅。所有的观众都知道这个地方。孩子的双臂搭在这只猪的头上,而他自己则在呼呼地酣睡。圣母画像面前的灯对这孩子苍白细嫩的面孔射出一道强有力的光——这是一张美丽的画!一架镀金的大画框镶着它,在画框的一角悬着一个桂花圈;可是在绿叶中间扎着一条黑带,黑带上面挂着一块黑纱。

因为这位青年艺术家在几天以前死去了!

Recently read "the great gatsby, a story of hegemony set up dawn. The north American continent, is hundred years ago, the economic development of the train sped forward; Friction machines roar, but also too much to hide a moment of the heart. The book, that history is a little mark.

Investigate its likelihood is a persons tragedy, is the tragedy of the society as a whole, may not be important. Wine party smallpox, extravagant luxury residence, colorful gorgeous clothes, just for the sake of his heart love Daisy. Think first, young and beautiful, sketched a period of time; Flies away and alternative fate lane person, in the heart of love is someone elses confidante. The deep love, the injury the farthest, cut; Not reality, immersed in the beautiful dream, but blurred the forward field of vision. Weakness of gunfire, all the dreams and beautiful, vulnerable to burst, scattered in the wind, without trace.

Gatsby, his great, because he was the degree of potential energy, but because of his pursuit of the good feelings. He hasnt done anything wrong, but also had to the empty rooms. A dream, how to do, easy, but also how to away, difficult to achieve. In an age of people pursuit of material, to be backed by real emotions. Buckish, stained with money, odour, lost a condition is a pure heart. Leave a piece of pure land, at that time, doomed to oblivion the audacity of commitments.

Finally wrote: "we continue to strive to move forward, stream, after being constantly push, until the return to the days of the old one."

Heart can not help a Chu. Accustomed to another potential, accustomed to the intrigue, people, really happy? Blundering world, difficult times, disguise the Buddhism, purports to recall the mood like that is like water. This, is the only thing we can do?

"Day after day, excitement consumed by gradually." Reality, kill too much like real unreal image. Those beautiful like a castle in the air, and hollow crowd away already. In between dreams and reality, we go from here?

Gatsby is the choice of the former. Even if the cruel reality, fate, his image is still great; Pure love is hard to stop, right and wrong about his, also make them in a glorious situation across the sphere of a bygone era. Quietly away, few people look at the light. Through one hundred, is the ray of light, to the left a dark era deserves stay have story.

Even if you, in the reality, still mark a dream back without regrets. That is worth pity era, these moving words, bring us infinite daydream.

最近在读《了不起的盖茨比》,一个霸权建立破晓时分的故事。那是百余年前的北美大陆,经济发展的火车疾驶向前;机器的摩擦轰鸣,却也过多地掩饰了一时的人心。这本书,便是那段历史点滴的印记。

究其然是一个人的悲剧,还是整个社会的悲剧,也许并不重要。酒天花地的派对,奢靡豪华的住处,五彩绚丽的衣衫,只是为了他心中挚爱的黛茜。回想初见之时,年轻美丽,一段草样的年华;荏苒而逝,奈何命运弄人,心中的挚爱已然他人的红颜知己。爱得愈深,伤得愈切;不干现实,沉浸于夙愿的美好,却模糊了前行的视野。无力的枪声,所有的梦想与美好,不堪一击地破灭,散于风中,了无踪迹。

盖茨比,他了不起,因为他因时度势的魄力,更因为他追寻美好的情愫。他没有做错什么,却也只得这人去楼空。一个梦想,如何极尽,唾手可得,却也如何之远,难以达到。在人人追求物质的时代,真实的情感那般一触即溃。浮华众生,沾染了铜臭气味,失却了是一颗至真纯净的内心。不留一片净土,那个时代,注定要湮没无畏的追梦者。

文中最后一句写道:“我们继续奋力前行,逆水行舟,被不断地后推,直至回到往昔的那段岁月。”

心中不禁一搐。习惯了争权夺势,习惯了勾心斗角,人们,究竟幸福吗?浮躁的世界,寸步难行的时代,掩饰了流俗,口口声声追忆似水般的年华。这,难道就是我们唯一可以做的吗?

“日复一日,兴奋之情被渐渐吞噬。”现实,抹杀了太多如真似幻的意象。那些似空中楼阁一般的美好,与空洞的人群已然渐行渐远。在梦想与现实之间,我们该何去何从?

盖茨比的选择是前者。纵然现实残酷,命运无常,他的形象依然伟大;单纯的难以阻挡的爱,左右了他的是是非非,也使之以一种壮美的势态划过一个过往时代的苍穹。悄然而逝,少有人注视其光芒。穿越了百年,正是这缕光,给那个昏暗的时代留下了一个值得留忆的故事。

即使逆水行舟,在现实的洪流中,依然印记一个追梦无悔的背影。那个值得悲悯的时代,这些动人的文字,带给我们无限的遐想。

篇15:安徒生童话集读书笔记

全文共 512 字

+ 加入清单

暑假里我读了一些课外书,什么《水浒传》、《三国演义》、《鲁滨逊漂流记》和《安徒生童话》等,其中我最喜欢看的是《安徒生童话》。

一天,我幸运地借到了一本《安徒生童话》,它就像一块磁铁似的把我深深地吸引住了,使我忘掉了自己,忘掉了周围的一切。看着、看着,我仿佛闯进了一个神奇的童话世界。那儿有小如拇指的小矮人、有会唱歌的夜莺、还有那善良、温柔、充满爱心的豌豆公主……

看着、看着,我又仿佛走进了一个大雪纷飞的夜晚。那是一个圣诞节的夜晚,是一个伸手不见五指的夜晚,街道上死一般的寂静。隐约的我看见了一个瘦弱、矮小的身影蹒跚地向我走来。那是一个披散着一头美丽金发的小女孩。她衣衫褴褛,睁着一双大大的眼睛,脸和嘴被冻得发紫了,冻僵的小手里还紧紧地攥着一束火柴,嘴里不断地喊着:“卖火柴,谁要火柴……”回答她的只有无情的风雪。她赤着脚在冰冷的雪地里走着,好不容易找到一个墙角蜷缩着,进行她的幻想。她点燃了手中的火柴,微弱的火光照亮了她那稚嫩的脸颊。一根、二根、三根以至全部,她想留住食物、留住和蔼慈祥的奶奶……

看到这里我心里在想,为什么这个世界如此冷酷无情呢!我们生活在社会主义国家里是多么幸福啊!我们衷心感谢伟大的党和优越的社会主义制度。

今天,我终于读完了《安徒生童话》这本书,它给我的感触很深。

我最喜欢的一篇童话是《恶毒的王子》。在你们心中,王子肯定是一个好人,可这篇童话里的王子不是你们想象中的那样,他非常恶毒。它主要讲述的是:在很久很久以前,有一位很恶毒的王子,他想要征服全世界。他每天烧杀抢掠,用火烧老百姓的房子,他的士兵也是这样。因此他很有钱,造了很大一栋别墅,许多外国人看了,觉得王子很了不起。它为了不让别人超过自己,就去攻打别的国家,让别的国家的国王吃自己的剩菜剩饭。突然,一个祭司说:“虽然你很厉害,但是,上帝要比你强大的多。”王子说:“好吧,我要征服上帝!”于是他下令让所有的士兵去建造一艘能在天上飞的船,一年后,飞船造好了,王子带领所有的士兵去攻打上帝。可是他们被一只老鹰打败了。王子不服,他又用了八年时间造了一群飞船·去攻打上帝。当飞船群飞到一半时,来了一大群蚊子,它们用嘴啄着王子,王子用的衣服抵挡着蚊子的攻击,可是有一只蚊子钻进了王子的耳朵里乱啄,王子被折磨死了。

读了这篇童话我明白了:一个有野心的人,做坏事,一定会遭到报应!

篇17:《百万英镑》英语读后感

"Millions of pounds" is a very interesting short stories, after reading the "million pounds", I have a lot of thoughts.

"Millions of pounds" is primarily concerned with the two brothers made a "what happens if a poor man get millions of pounds to do" the bet. And they gave it to a poor and honest man a one million pound note.

People are very surprised to the rich man, improve his position. He has a beautiful wife, living a happy life.

My feeling is, the people of the past look down upon the poor, feel oneself what benefits to help the poor all have no, also for the poor is very cold. But the sight of a rich man to him very kind and enthusiasm. This is showed in the past people are money, rich people have status, respectable people. But no money, no status, others look down on them. I think this kind of situation is very bad, not only rich people can be respected, everyone has the right to get respect from others. At the same time, is also a happy thing to help the poor. When you get to the best of your ability to help the others, inside there will be a kind of unspeakable joy and happy. I think people should help the poor. In addition, I also think should not be money, judge a book by its cover. Although money is very important, but not everything!

百万英镑》是一个很有趣的短篇小说,读了《百万英镑》后,我有很多感想。

《百万英镑》主要讲的是两兄弟打了一个“如果一个穷人得到百万英镑会怎样做”的赌。他们就给了一个贫穷而诚实的人一张一百万英镑的钞票。

人们对这个一夜暴富的人很惊讶,不断提高他的地位。他还有了一个美丽的妻子,过着幸福的生活。

我的感想是,过去的人们看不起穷人,觉得帮助穷人自己什么好处都没有,还对穷人很冷淡。可是一见到有钱人就对他很客气、热情。这种情况就表现出了过去的人们都是金钱至上,有钱的人就有地位,受人们尊重。可是没钱的人就没有地位,别人也看不起他们。我觉得这种情况是非常不好的,不是只有有钱的人能受到尊重,每个人都有权利得到别人的尊重。同时,帮助穷人也是快乐的事。当你尽自己的能力帮助了别人后,内心会有一种说不出的喜悦和开心。我觉得人们还是应该帮助穷人。另外,我还觉得不应该金钱至上,以貌取人。金钱虽然很重要,但并不是万能的!

There is such a person, he is a doctor, but the very obsession for sailing adventure, although every time almost died, does not lose enthusiasm, he was in a strange island through series of memorable times, who is he? By the way, is gulliver.

Gulliver has been to four isolated islands - Lilliput, giants, flying island, and the houyhnhnms. In Lilliput, initially, the king treat gulliver like a child. But then for a ridiculous reason, lead to the power split into two continuous small country. A country that has entertained a gulliver many days, let him to fight against another country, gulliver didnt promise, so the king of his exertion. And once built a fire, the palace gulliver in a hurry, suddenly into the use of urine douse the fire. Liledagong originally, but the king listen to chan said, believed to be insulted him, also want to kill gulliver, thanks to a secretary told him to avoid the disaster.

In the giant countries, the situation much worse than Lilliput. Because they all think that gulliver is not a real person, but to a person like robot, so dont put the gulliver seriously, because of the small, everyday want to go to the street performances. Gulliver cant stand this slave life, he escaped while owners do not pay attention to.

In all gulliver sailing experience the most interesting is in the flying island. Where there are a lot of good to be true. Someone says, can be extracted from the cucumber sunshine, but he has never been successful. There is also a architect want to build a house from top to bottom, and flushed to argue that many insects are building houses in this way. On the other side of the flying island is wu, a man born inside there is magic, those flowers look very common, actually hold great power.

On our way to the adventure gulliver with wisdom and courage to overcome the one after another difficult. In the future study, we also want to like him, work hard, go forward.

有这样一个人,他是一个医生,但对航海冒险十分痴迷,虽然每次都差点丧生,却丝毫不减热情,他在一个个奇怪的岛上度过一段段难忘的时光,他是谁呢?对了,就是格列佛。

格列佛先后去过四个与世隔绝的小岛——小人国、巨人国、飞岛国和慧马国。在小人国里,最初,国王就像对待孩子一样对待格列佛。可是后来因为一条荒唐的理由,导致这个大国分裂成两个战火不断的小国。一国认为已款待了格列佛许多日子,就让他去攻打另外一个国家,格列佛没有答应,于是国王对他冷若冰霜。还有一次皇宫里起了火,格列佛匆匆赶来,忽然灵机一动用尿浇灭了火。本来立了大功,可国王听信馋言,认为是侮辱了他,还想毒死格列佛,幸亏一个大臣告诉了他才避免了灾难。

在巨人国里,情况可比小人国要糟得多。因为他们都认为格列佛不是真正的人,而是一种类似人的机器人,所以不把格列佛当回事,因为小巧,每天都要去街上表演节目赚钱。格列佛不能忍受这种奴隶的生活,便趁主人不注意逃走了。

在格列佛所有航海经历中最有趣的莫过于在飞岛国了。在那里有许多异想天开的人。有人说,能从黄瓜里提取阳光,但他从未成功过。还有一个建筑师想要从上到下建房子,还面红耳赤地争辩说许多昆虫就是这样造房子的。在飞岛国的另一边是巫人国,里面的人生下来就有魔法,那些花花草草看起来很普通,实际上却蕴含着巨大的力量。

格列佛在冒险途中,用智慧和勇气战胜了一个又一个困难。在今后的学习中,我们也要像他一样奋力拼搏,勇往直前。

篇19:书虫系列英语读后感

全文共 895 字

+ 加入清单

昨天,我带孩子去电影院看了现在燃爆网络的影片《哪吒之魔童降世》,其曲折离奇的故事情节,幽默搞笑的台词设计顿时让我耳目一新。

影片开头的太乙真人的造型让人一看就感觉很有趣,造型设计成功颠覆了你的想象,在我们心目中太乙真人一直都是道骨仙风,清瘦高冷的仙人模样,而此片却是瘦脸大肚,说着四川话的滑稽模样。

而另一个颠覆我们想象则是的龙王造型,在我们想象中,龙王就应该跟电视剧《西游记》那样模样,头戴冠冕,身穿刺绣滚龙黄袍龙头人身的龙王形象,而此片中的龙王却始终是一条全身银白色鳞片,头上长着两个长长犄角,两条长长龙须的巨龙模样。

而此片最大的特色是哪吒不像以前的人物一样,生性顽皮可爱,而此片的哪吒则是生性顽劣,到处闯祸惹得人们对他怨声载道。从而也为后面的巨大转变埋下了伏笔。主人公哪吒与另一个反面人物敖丙,两人亦正亦邪,从偶然相识到惺惺相惜,再到相互搏杀,再至最后的患难与共。他们俩的传奇友谊为我们证明了朋友的真正价值与意义。

最令人感动的是李靖夫妇对哪吒的用心呵护与疼爱,尤其是李靖想用自己的肉身来换取哪吒的安全时,那感人的情景令人瞬间泪奔。哪吒在将要自己独自承受雷霆之击,最后他与父母离别时说:“其实三年也不短了”那一句时,也让人瞬间感动的热泪盈眶。

这部电影以父母的爱,朋友的爱为主题,生动地表现了孩子在年少时,虽然偶尔会闯祸,但那是孩子的天性使然,所以我们父母不要过分地苛责与训斥孩子,而要以一颗宽容之心,用心去呵护他们,用爱去温暖他们。像哪吒那样顽劣的孩子在他父母的爱心呵护下,尚且可以改邪归正,我们的孩子为什么会做不到呢?这个电影用丝丝入扣,合情合理的故事情节,更为我们父母上了生动的一课。

当然这部电影还有很多幽默风趣的故事情节,比如里面哪吒躺在床上唱的歌谣也很有趣,用筷子敲碗的情节,我感觉这个片段是在向周星驰的经典电影《唐伯虎点秋香》致敬,那里面唐伯虎也是用筷子敲碗,唱了一段令人感到啼笑皆非的台词。还有江山社稷图那唯美动人的画面,我就不再这里进行一样赘述了,如果剧透太多的话,或许你去电影院就会觉得兴趣索然。

这部电影真的很好看,如果大家对这部电影感兴趣的话,我建议最好带孩子一起去看看。

篇20:《饥饿游戏》英语读后感

全文共 2781 字

+ 加入清单

The Hunger Games, is written by Suzanne Collins. The central ruling city, named the capitol, holds the hunger games. Every year,the evil Capitol of the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. The Hunger Games are just a nationally televised event in which Tributes must fight with one another until one survivor remains.

To my surprise, Katniss involved in the hunger games, replaces her sister to play. She moves forward with faith, and finally wins both love and the hunger games. By the way, Katniss and Peeta are the tributes from district 12. Finally, they survive to the end and return home.

In my opinion, the Hunger Games is written mainly against domination. In another word, the hunger games are the product of domination. From the growth of Katniss, I deeply impressed that she is not only minute but also representative and aspirant, for the Hunger Game is not only a game itself as a show, but also the game between the Capitol and other 12 districts. This is a game about domination and revolution. In the Hunger Games, there are many moving scenes. While peeta joins the tributes from the richer districts. However, when he has the opportunity to kill Katniss, he instead saves her from the others. But Rue skilled by another tribute, whom Katniss then kills, Katniss sings to Rue until she dies, which encourages the watching people to chase for freedom and be against domination.

Besides this, I also learn something about hope from the story. Katniss moves all the way forward with hope. She tells peeta in the arena,If we win, we will each get a house in the part of town reserved for Hunger Games’ victors。 She does not give up but does everything she can to increase the possibility of survival. As young adults, we should also have faith in our future. Ups and downs as we may face, none of them is challenging enough compared with the death threat Katniss encounters. Katniss never losed hope. Neither should we.

At the end of Hunger Games, when the couple remain last, the rule changes back. One must kill the other to win. Knowing that the gamemakers would rather have to victors than none, Katniss offer some highly poisonous berries to peeta. Realizing that Katniss and Peeta instead to commit suicide, the gamemakers announce that they both will be victors of the 74th Hunger Games. Katniss is very mature, brave and wise. She is a b role model for young girls with her character"s sacrifice, courage, moral grounding in a world that"s lost its own, and will to fight for what"s right, even if it means sacrificing her own life or sparking a revolution.

Although the reality is cruel for almost every character in the fiction, the positive side of humanity and love is always bright.
