老人与海章节读后感英文【最新20篇】

这个暑假我读完了美国权威作家欧内斯特？海明威写的《老人与海》

《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。”

最近我读了一本海明威的著作《老人与海》，深深地被它那种具有凝练、深沉、气势磅礴而又耐人寻味的艺术风格所吸引，简洁的语言所叙述的故事里蕴含着深刻的哲理。

书中讲了一位叫桑提阿果的老人在海上捕鱼的始末。这位慈祥、和蔼可亲的老人在八十四天里，在暖流中连一条小鱼也没捕到的情况下，依然沉着、冷静、不急不躁、不厌疲倦坚持捕鱼。书中还写了一位着迷棒球的小男孩。他总是帮着老人搬回沉重的钓绳，或者是扛走拖钩和鱼叉，再不就是桅杆和船帆。老人非常孤独，男孩是他最好的伴儿。老人捕鱼的信心总是足足的，从不轻言放弃，支持着老人心底的支柱是老人总是给自己打气，相信自己一定能捕到大鱼。老人生命力强，尤其在海上，他只有一把不成样的破刀和两只不顶用的手，但也创造了奇迹，老人靠智慧和自身的力量亲手捕获了一条大鲨鱼。

读完这本书，首先的感受就是令我十分震惊，如此的老人，如此充满力量的手，如此的充满信心，精神上又是如此的不可战胜。一个人，除了精神顽强，希望不灭之外，更重要的是做任何事情都要靠自己的力量和智慧去拼搏。那执着的精神好比是太阳，那力量就似月亮，合而为一，是老人身心最珍贵的所在，更可贵的是老人的心纯洁无暇。我们在生活上要学习小男孩那种助人为乐的品质，学习上更应学习老人那种不可战胜的精神，碰到困难，不言放弃，要自己常给自己打气，给自己信心，加上顽强和凭借自己的智慧，定能更上一层楼，在漫长的人生道路上定能越走越远。

读完《老人与海》，我的心久久不能平静。

八十四个日日夜夜，老渔夫圣地亚哥在海上什么也没有捕到，其他的渔民都嘲笑他，说他是一个失败者。于是第二天，他坚定信念，到大家都不敢去的深海捕鱼。他和一只大马林鱼搏斗了三天三夜，终于将它捕获。当他踏上归途时，却遇到了一只鲨鱼，奋力抵抗了多日，才脱离险境。可鱼肉在搏斗中被撕扯，只剩下一具硕大的鱼骨。

八十四天，一无所获，是寂寞的，难熬的。经历这么大的磨难，挫折和嘲笑，老渔夫仍然挺了过来，坚定自己的信念，坚持着自己的初衷，勇敢地向深海进发。

深海中的一只大马林鱼，既是猎物，又随时可能转变为猎人。他没有畏惧也没有退缩，勇敢地去与之搏斗。三天三夜，任是精力多么旺盛的人，也会被耗得精疲力竭，可他靠着坚韧的意志，坚持下来并取得了胜利。

最后与鲨鱼的搏杀，尽管结局不那么美好——鱼只剩下了骨架。可在这一次次的搏斗中，老渔夫收获到了永不放弃的信念，执着向前的坚持，逆境中不服输的精神，勇敢与困难作斗争的拼搏和坚韧的意志。这些已经远远大于了一只鱼的价值。因为有了这些品质和精神，在今后的生活中，不管遇到什么，问题都会迎刃而解。他从一次次磨难中，明白了成长的真谛。

生活更是如此，只有经历磨难，才能从中吸取经验和教训，获得成长。只有积极乐观地去面对它们，才能不被其所阻。困难面前的我们十分渺小，但我们可以努力让自己变得强大。

一本好书，值得去细细品读，从中有所感，有所悟。

海明威的《老人与海》讲述了一个并不复杂的故事：老渔夫圣地亚哥在持续84天的不走运之后，捕获了一条前所未有的大马哈林鱼，却在返航的途中被一群鲨鱼把他的猎物吃得只剩下骨头。圣地亚哥运回岸的只是一具巨大的鱼骨。

老人与海给了我很多人生启示。其中，圣地亚哥的那句“人不是为了失败而生的。一个人可以被毁灭，但不可以被打败。”尤其意味深长，留给人无限的思考空间。

什么是永不言败?永不言败就是跌倒了要鼓起勇气爬起来，在一次跌倒在一次爬起，永远不会失去对生活的希望永远不会失去自己的人生梦想。什么是英雄?英雄就是自己遇到挫折的时候，敢于去挑战自己、挑战挫折，直到战胜自己、战胜挫折，完成自己的人生理想。

为什么海明威不让圣地亚哥获得胜利呢?这样不是更能体现英雄的伟大吗?老人的故事不但象征人与自然的关系，而且更加象征着整个人类坚不可摧的精神。

“人不是为了失败而生的。一个人可以被毁灭，但不可以被打败。”文中的这句话点明了本文的思想：人要勇敢地面对失败。老人敢于挑战极限，一次又一次的超越，不得不让我们敬佩。

合上书本，我不禁思绪万千，这本《老人与海》是一部悲剧式励志小说，小说的主人公桑地亚哥，也就是老人，是一个不屈不挠的强者，硬汉。他虽然在海上漂泊了整整八十四天，仍一无所获，却仍不放弃，继续独自捕鱼，最后终于在第八十五天捕到了一条大鱼，却被大鱼在海上拖着走了三天三夜，抓到鱼后却又不断受到鲨鱼的袭击，使鱼变得残缺不全，最后只带回一个巨大的鱼头......

短暂的思索过后，我突然想到，如果我是书中的老人，我又会怎么做?怕是早在八十四天前便已经放弃了吧?而且在这八十四天里必然会有恶劣的天气，险恶的风暴，而我只怕在遇到一点小风小浪后就害怕得逃回渔港吧?何况是遇到鲨鱼呢?估计马上就会放弃鱼，驾船逃跑了吧?我真不敢往下想了。想到这，我觉得自己是多么胆小懦弱;而老人却是那么坚强不屈，勇往直前，他为了自己，为了信念，更为了那以他为榜样的男孩，不断努力，不断奋斗!老人虽没能捕回一条完整的大鱼，却仍能让人将其作为榜样。

生活中，我总是因为遇到一点点小挫折，小困难而放弃去做某一件自己力所能及的事，例如练琴时，我会因为被老师说了一句错音而不满，使自己不能用心练琴，荒废了许多时间。原本让自己休息的时间被没做好的事情霸占，没有更多的收获，却花费了更多的时间，真是得不偿失。

老人那不屈不挠，永不放弃，坚强不屈，永不言败的精神，是我学习的榜样，让我也像他一样，为了自己的目标而奋斗，努力!

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。

《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.

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. 老人与海英文读后感(二)

The Old Man and the Sea is one of Hemingways most enduring works and may very well become one of the true classics of this generation.It played a GREat part in his winning the Pulizer Prize in 1953 and the 1954 Novel Prize for Literature and confirmed his power and presence in the literary world. Hemingway is also one of my favorite writers. Besides The Old Man And the Sea, I have read some of his other works, such as The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms and The Snow of Kilimanijaro. But The Old Man and the Sea is the one that left the deepest impression on me.

I first read this book when I was in my fifteens. And now I remember it just as well as if I had read it yesterday.

Pride and Prejudice is a chefdoeuvre.

My first impression of this story was from screen.

To Regain the Nature of Goodness

—— Review of ‘Oliver Twist

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 their ‘kindness, 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 those vermin-to-be to learn from the kind Oliver and regain the nature of goodness.

given is a simple but thought-provoking cartoon: an aged grandma sits in front of mirror, looking at “herself” in the mirror and saying to herself, “i feel rather lonely when my son goes to work and my grandson studies in school.”

obviously, this cartoon can be naturally associated with the significance of children’s accompany for aged parents: if elderly people intend to enjoy happiness,it is advisable for their children to spend more time in parents. in contemporary society, it has become a trend for young people to be busy with their work and study. meanwhile, an increasing number of youngsters find it difficult to have spare time to accompany lonely parents. however, it is adult children’s accompany that enables aged parents to build up adequate hope, love and enthusiasm for life. as a matter of fact, young people in large numbers have not come to realize the loneliness of aged people.

as a youngster, i am convinced that it is of great necessity for us to accompany aged parents, no matter how busy we are. accordingly, we should educate, advocate and encourage our friends, classmates and acquaintances to love, respect and care all elderly people.

I first read "Jane Eyre" in eighth grade and have read it every few years since. It is one of my favorite novels, and so much more than a gothic romance to me, although thats how I probably would have defined it at age 13. I have always been struck, haunted in a way, by the characters - Jane and Mr. Rochester. They take on new depth every time I meet them...and theirs is a love story for the ages.

Charlotte Brontes first published novel, and her most noted work, is a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story. Jane is plain, poor, alone and unprotected, but due to her fierce independence and strong will she grows and is able to defy societys expectations of her. This is definitely feminist literature, published in 1847, way before the beginning of any feminist movement. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the novel has had such a wide following since it first came on the market. It is also one of the first gothic romances published and defines the genre.

Jane Eyre, who is our narrator, was born into a poor family. Her parents died when she was a small child and the little girl was sent to live with her Uncle and Aunt Reed at Gateshead. Janes Uncle truly cared for her and showed his affection openly, but Mrs. Reed seemed to hate the orphan, and neglected her while she pampered and spoiled her own children. This unfair treatment emphasized Janes status as an unwanted outsider. She was often punished harshly. On one occasion her nasty cousin Jack picked a fight with her. Jane tried to defend herself and was locked in the terrifying "Red Room" as a result. Janes Uncle Reed had died in this room a little while before, and Mrs. Reed knew how frightened she was of the chamber. Since Jane is the narrator, the reader is given a first-hand impression of the childs feelings, her heightened emotional state at being imprisoned. Indeed, she seems almost like an hysterical child, filled with terror and rage. She repeatedly calls her condition in life "unjust" and is filled with bitterness. Looking into the mirror Jane sees a distorted image of herself. She views her reflection and sees a "strange little figure," or "tiny phantom." Jane has not learned yet to subordinate her passions to her reason. Her passions still erupt unchecked. Her isolation in the Red Room is a presentiment of her later isolation from almost every society and community. This powerful, beautifully written scene never fails to move me.

Mrs. Reed decided to send Jane away to the Lowood School, a poor institution run by Mr. Brocklehurst, who believed that suffering made grand people. All the children there were neglected, except to receive harsh punishment when any mistake was made. At Lowood, Jane met Helen Burns, a young woman a little older than Jane, who guided her with vision, light and love for the rest of her life. Janes need for love was so great. It really becomes obvious in this first friendship. Helen later died from fever, in Janes arms. Her illness and death could have been avoided if more attention had been paid to the youths. Jane stayed at Lowood for ten years, eight as a student and two as a teacher. Tired and depressed by her surroundings, Jane applied for the position of governess and found employment at Thornfield. The mansion is owned by a gentleman named Edward Fairfax Rochester. Her job there was to teach his ward, an adorable little French girl, Adele. Over a long period the moody, inscrutable Rochester confides in Jane and she in him. The two form an unlikely friendship and eventually fall in love. Again, Janes need for love comes to the fore, as does her passionate nature. She blooms. A dark, gothic figure, Rochester also has a heart filled with the hope of true love and future happiness with Jane. Ironically, he has brought all his misery, past and future, on himself.

All is not as it seems at Thornfield. There is a strange, ominous woman servant, Grace Poole, who lives and works in an attic room. She keeps to herself and is rarely seen. From the first, however, Jane has sensed bizarre happenings at night, when everyone is asleep .There are wild cries along with violent attempts on Rochesters life by a seemingly unknown person. Jane wonders why no one investigates Mrs. Poole. Then a strange man visits Thornfield and mysteriously disappears with Mr. Rochester. Late that night Jane is asked to sit with the man while the lord of the house seeks a doctors help. The man has been seriously wounded and is weak from loss of blood. He leaves by coach, in a sorry state, first thing in the morning. Janes questions are not answered directly. This visit will have dire consequences on all involved. An explosive secret revealed will destroy all the joyful plans that Jane and Rochester have made. Jane, once more will face poverty and isolation.

Charlotte Brontes heroine Jane Eyre, may not have been graced with beauty or money, but she had a spirit of fire and was filled with integrity and a sense of independence - character traits that never waned in spite of all the oppression she encountered in life. Ms. Bronte brings to the fore in "Jane Eyre" such issues as: the relations between men and women in the mid-19 century, womens equality, the treatment of children and of women, religious faith and hypocrisy (and the difference between the two), the realization of selfhood, and the nature of love and passion. This is a powerhouse of a novel filled with romance, mystery and passions. It is at once startlingly fresh and a portrait of the times. Ms. Bronte will make your heart beat faster, your pulse race and your eyes fill with tears.

前几天，我读了海明威的名著——《老人与海》，放下书后，我的心久久不能平静。

在这本书里，有一位名叫圣地亚哥的老渔夫，他常常自称“怪老头”。一次偶然的机会，他钓到了一条巨大的马林鱼。他以惊人的毅力和大鱼周旋了整整两天，终于用鱼叉戳中了它。可是受伤的鱼流了许多血，在海面上留下了一条血腥的痕迹，迎来无数鲨鱼的争抢。老人又使出全身力气与鲨鱼周旋，但回到海港时，它还是被鲨鱼啃咬得只剩下了一副骨架。

我觉得，老人之所以能在险恶的风浪与嗜血的鲨鱼中咬牙坚持下来，与他内心深处坚如磐石,绝不动摇的信念有关。而那信念便是两句话——“人不是为失败而生的”“一个人可以被毁灭，但绝不能被打败。”在许多人都无能为力的困境中，他从未想到退缩，而是坚强不屈，迎难而上甚至视死如归。尽管在与鲨鱼的斗争中，老人失败了，但他仍不失尊严，有着胜利者的风度。

读完这本书，我不禁思考：一个老人都能如此执着、坚强，那我们呢？如果换我们处在生与死的考验中，我们是否会像老人一样迎难而上呢？想到这，我不禁暗暗下定决心：面对困难，我以后一定勇往直前、决不让步！“宝剑锋从磨砺出，梅花香自苦寒来”我相信这句话对任何人都适用。我们不能决定生命的长度，但一定可以通过自己的努力拓宽生命的宽度！让我们迎难而上，站上生命的巅峰！

Scarlett , a very personality figures ，the two mans she love ,neither does she know about.To her, I was compelled to admire, admire her strong and brave, admire her to lay down in the environment, farm workers previously suffered education, admire her to disregard the community to create their own expression of the cause .She is in the whole story, all a person full of fighting will full of vitality . I appreciated most , it is this " Tomorrow is another day of hers. " . Promising forever, full of fighting will , will never give up, never desperate.

" Gone with the Wind is absolutely a good book that is worth sampling repeatedly, the characters are graceful , the plot rises and falls, exciting boldly and unconstrainedly, though the subjective factor because of the author among them , the appraisal on U.S.A.s Civil War is not objective and overall, but as to angle of literature, this one fine piece of writing generation definitely absolutely, worth visiting.

Author: Antoine de St-Exupery

Main Characters: The little prince, the pilot, the rose, the fox, the snake, etc.

Despite I’ve not in my childhood yet, I still prefer reading fairy-tale stories. The tales, which accompany with me in my old days, often make me think of some precious experience and sensation which only belong to children. This summer I’ve review this kind of tale, which was published in 1940. It’s the world-famous fairy-tale by the French author, Antoine de St-Exupery, The Little Prince.

As many other fairy-tales, the outline of The Little Prince is not very complex. “I”, the narrator of the story, is a pilot whose plane has something wrong and lands in the Sahara. In this occasion, the pilot makes the acquaintance of the little prince, a little boy from another planet, the Asteroid B612. The little prince has escaped from his tiny planet, because he has some quarrel with a rose, which grows on his planet. In that case he left his own planet and took an exploration at some neighbor asteroids.

On his all-alone journey, the little prince meets different kinds of people, which includes a king, a conceited man, a tippler, a businessman, a lamplighter and a geographer. From these people he gets a conclusion that the grown-ups are very odd. Following the instruction of the geographer, he descends in the Sahara, on the earth.

《老人与海》这本书是很值得我们看的一本名著，为什么呢?因为它里面包含了许多值得我们学习的精神!

这本书主要讲了一位叫桑提亚哥的老渔夫，他似乎运气不怎么好，已经连续80几天没有钓到鱼了，但他丝毫没有放弃的念头，总是抱着希望去迎接新的一天，终于，在他出海的第85天(前84天一无所获)，钓到了身子比船还长的大马林鱼，马林鱼拖着他在海面上行驶了3天3夜，途中饥饿的威胁，左手抽筋，睡眠不足……但他不气馁，不放弃，在遇到困难时，有两个选择，一是放弃，二是接受挑战，在两个选择中，他选择了挑战，勇敢地走下去，而不是知难而退，这个伟大的渔夫，就在他把马林鱼钓起来杀时，血腥味引来了鲨鱼，他和鲨鱼进行着搏斗，鲨鱼一口一口地咬着大鱼，当老人战胜鲨鱼时，马林鱼只剩下一副骨架了，老人只好怏怏而回。

这三天三夜里，老人遇到种.种艰难险阻，他都克服了，可惜的是，辛辛苦苦钓来的鱼又被鲨鱼吃了，但是来人还是像往常一样报着希望去迎接新的一天，我想坚持不懈，勇往直前，毫不气馁就是他所在的精神吧!

《老人与海》的故事十分简单：老人圣地亚歌在连续84天没有捕到一条鱼，但他毫不放弃，第85天他再次出海，几经辛苦终于捕到了一条比他的渔船还大很多的马林鱼，可是在折返渔港的途中，却不断被凶残的鲨鱼袭击。已疲惫不堪的老人又顽强地与鲨鱼搏斗……当他回到海港时，那硕大的马林鱼已仅剩一副空空的骨架!

故事的结局是哀伤的，那是一个在失败和挫折面前绝不低头、不气馁、坚韧不拔的老人，在付出了极大的精力、心血之后，却不能品偿到成功的喜悦的悲伤结局，但我并不觉得老人有任何的悲伤。

老人在捕获马林鱼，与鲨鱼搏斗的时候，虽然不断祈求上帝保佑自己，但那只是求得心灵的慰藉而己。他从没有放弃过一点希望，从没有放弃过一次机会，没有半句怨言，心中只朝着那一个坚定不移的目标奋不顾身地奔去。即使他最后的结局是失败的，但他在这一搏斗的过程，却得到了无数的别人梦寐以求的果实——智慧、经验、力量、勇气……

可以说，老人最终是失败了，但在这一过程中，他获得的比失去的更多。

所以呀，因为考不上大学就轻生的学生们、因为生意失败而自暴自弃的商人们、因为找不到工作而灰心丧意而自甘落后的都市人们，你们的轻生、你们的自暴自弃、你们的灰心丧意、你们的自甘落后实在是太没价值了!

你们为何不细心想想，为了达到你心目中的某一理想或目标，你们拼搏进取，你们努力奋斗，那是多么的意气风发啊!在你们追求的过程中，你们付出了多少的时间、汗水与精力，要解决多少的难题，要运用多少的智慧!那么，试问，你们又何曾失败过呢?你们已经赢得了过程，那比成功还要辉煌的过程!

人们啊，不要过于执着结果了!结果只是稍逊即逝的鲜花而已，过程才是真真实实的果实呀!让我们和《老人与海》中的老人一样，不论结果怎样，让我们为过程而拼搏，为过程而努力，为过程而奋斗吧!

享受过程，才是生活的真谛!

开始，老人先是准备了几天，然后划船离开码头。几天后，他找到合适的地点钓起鱼来。可令他非常意外的事情发生了，他捕到一条大鱼，然而当天，他没办法把那条鱼拉上来，因为鱼太大太有力量了。就这样，一场较量开始了。连继二天，他们都在拉来拉去。到了第三天，较量终于以老人获胜结束了。老人发现那条大鱼竟然比老人的船还长，老人决定把那条大鱼绑在船舷上返航。可一件非常不幸的事发生了，途中鲨鱼开始吃那条鱼。就这样，老人和鲨鱼战斗起来。每天，老人都要打死一些鲨鱼，虽然很残酷，可要保住这条鱼又有什么办法呢。

最终，鱼肉被鲨鱼吃光了，只剩下骨架，老人被打败了。然而他休息了几天，又准备出海打鱼了。

我要学习老人坚持不懈的精神。

In the sun, I read this thick, childhood, heart suddenly a strange shame and remorse, think of themselves and the lives of a great disparity in Gorky.

Year-old death of his father, to follow the kind of grandmother came to the grandfather"s home. Here, he knows many things, but also see a lot of things, he see the selfish, greedy, brutish, two uncles; simple friend Little Gypsy; mean, stingy, greedy, tyrannical, brutal grandfather; every day life in the cruel, stupid, infighting among family members and arguments, and from between good and evil, Alesha ignorant to understand that a number of reasons.

Compared with him together, our childhood is bright and happy; no pain and struggle, has been a carefree life. From this point on it seems we already have far cry on with Alesha, we have a lot, but we still do not know enough I just want luxury this world a better and more want.

Yes ah, we often parents do not cook, mouth open for food, only to parents for their shelter Guzhao, not herself from the world battles. Now we have to expect should repent, should not waste anything, and learn to cherish everything we have now will suffice.

From now on test, we must stand up and do not just want to experience difficulties with such a withdrawal, escape, or take a shortcut, should have confidence in ourselves, life always something or someone will give you pain and even despair, but we should be like what how the kind of insisted. In this way, you can again find joy in pain, in despair to find hope. Yes, dark past, the dawn will always come, as long as you still maintain the confidence that something is immortal, has all the treasure, then your light will come, because you know how to cherish.

【编者按】傲慢，偏见，这两个毋庸质疑的贬义词，让简。奥斯丁的作品成为精致的象征一时之间闻名遐迩，从而傲慢与偏见也成为了脍炙人口的伟大著作。

奥斯汀的〈傲慢与偏见〉，正如她自己所说，是在两寸象牙上细细的雕刻，它是奥斯汀的代表作。这部反映婚姻问题的小说是作者作品中最受欢迎的一部，也是她本人最喜欢的作品。作品生动的反映了18世纪末到19世纪初处于保守和闭塞状态下的英国乡镇生活和世态人情。其社会风情化似的小说不仅在当时吸引着广大的读者，时至今日，仍给读者以独特的艺术享受。她是第一个现实地描绘日常平凡生活的小说家，在英国小说史上起了承上启下的作用。

Austen pride and Prejudice, as she said, is in the details on 2cm ivory carving, it is the masterpiece of Austen. This reflects the Marriage Novels by the author is one of the most popular works, is also her most loved works. Works vivid reflects the late eighteenth Century to early nineteenth Century in a conservative and occlusion of the British town life and the ways of the world. The social customs of a novel at that time not only to attract a large number of readers, today, still give the reader a unique artistic enjoyment. She was the first to describe reality daily life of ordinary novelist, played an important role in the history of the British novel.

整部作品没有滂沱的气势，没有曲折跌宕的情节，但就是这种简单，至今深深地吸引着我们。奥斯汀短暂的一生几乎都是在英国的乡间度过的，也许就是周围朴素，宁静的氛围孕育了她淡然的气质。并不能因为没有丰富的经历，就对她的对于事物的分析能力有所怀疑，读过〈傲慢与偏见〉的人一定会为她细腻、敏锐的情感所折服。在写〈傲慢与偏见〉时，她只是一个十几岁的女孩，难道这不是一种天赋吗?她的确很少接触“外界”，但思想存在，想象存在，这一切的存在就足够。

The whole film without the torrential imposing no twists and turns, ups and downs, but this is simple, still attracted us deeply. Austen short life, almost all spent in the British countryside, perhaps the surrounding plain, quiet atmosphere gave birth to her indifferent temperament. Not as rich in experience, they have skills in analysis of her to doubt, read pride and Prejudice people will be fine for her, a keen sensibility at. Write pride and Prejudice, she was a teenage girl, isnt this a gift? She has very little contact with "outsiders", but there is thought, imagination, the existence of all this is enough.

范文二

Many people simply regard Pride and Prejudice as a love story, but in my opinion, this book is an illustration of the society at that time. She perfectly reflected the relation between money and marriage at her time and gave the people in her works vivid characters.

The characters have their own personalities. Mrs. Bennet is a woman who makes great efforts to marry off her daughters. Mr. Bingley is a friendly young man, but his friend, Mr. Darcy, is a very proud man who seems to always feel superior. Even the five daughters in Bennet family are very different. Jane is simple, innocent and never speaks evil of others. Elizabeth is a clever girl who always has her own opinion. Mary likes reading classic books. (Actually she is a pedant.) Kitty doesn’t have her own opinion but likes to follow her sister, Lydia. Lydia is a girl who follows exotic things, handsome man, and is somehow a little profligate. When I read the book, I can always find the same personalities in the society now. That is why I think this book is indeed the representative of the society in Britain in the 18th century.

The family of gentleman in the countryside is Jane Austen’s favourite topic. But this little topic can reflect big problems. It concludes the stratum situation and economic relationships in Britain in her century. You can find these from the very beginning of this book.

Austen left this problem for us to think. The genius of Jane Austen lies in this perfect simplicity, the simplicity that reflects big problems. Although Austen was only 21 when she wrote “Pride and Prejudice”, her sharp observation of social lives makes the style of this book surprisingly mature and lively. The plots in her works are always very natural. The development of the plot is as inevitable as a problem in mathematics. I think the depth of Pride and Prejudice is the reason that makes this book prominent and classic. Today, her book still can be the guide telling us the economic relationships both at her time and in modern time.

范文三

Pride and Prejudice is a novel written by the famous English writer, Jane Austen, who was the sixth children in a family of seven and was born in the village of steventon in Hampshire in 1775 and died of Addison’s disease in 1817. The book first published on 28 January 1813 by the bookseller Thomas Egerton who had also published Sense and Sensibility, the original version of the novel was written in 1796-1797 under the title First Impressions .

Pride and Prejudice is a love story, mainly tells the love between Elizabeth and Darcy. It divided into 2 volumes and is composed of 42 chapters altogether. The major characters are Mr. Darcy, A rich and proud young man. Elizabeth, the second eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet. Mr. Bingley , A rich young bachelor. Jane, the first daughter of Mr. and Mrs.Bennet. The story begin with Bingley’s arrival. One day when Mrs.Bennet hear Bingley has taken Netherfield, a house near her’s. She is so happy and arranged one of her five daughters marriage with him. At a ball, luckly, Bingley and Jane fall in love at the first sight. Darcy, a friend of Bingley’s , was attracted to Elizabeth, a lively and spirited girl. But Darcy greatly offends her by his supercilious behavior and this dislike is increased by Wickham, a dashing young militia officer of the unjust treatment he has met with at Darcys hands. One day when Darcy and Bingley’s two sisters disgusted with the vulgarity of Mrs. Bennet and her two youngest daughters, effectively separated Bingley and Jane. Meanwhile, Collins, a cousin of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet, married charlotte, a friend of Elizabeth’s, for Elizabeth’s refuse to marry him. But One day Darcy send Elizabeth a letter, in which he justifies the separation of his friend Bingley and Jane and make it clear that Wickham is. So Elizabeth changed her opinions and ideas toward him. Once when Elizabeth visited her uncle and aunt in the north of England, she met Darcy there and witnessed his changes through series of behaviors, no longer pride and become gentle and attentive, all these made their marriage arranged, and they also suitably provided for Bingley and Jane’s reunited and engaged. The story ends with both their happy marriages.

My point of view towards the masterpiece of Jane Austen’s is that this novel reflects the English human sentiment of the end of 18th century and the early of 19th century under the circumstance of conservative，and tells us the difference ways and attitudes to marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet’s five daughters’. Thereby reveal the author herself attitude towards marriage, that is love and marriage based on money, property and social status is not perfect, but it is also stupid Without considering all of these. There, the author emphasize the importance of ideal marriage, meanwhile, to be opposed to love & marriage based on money or property and to be opposed to people’s laugh love & marriage off. The author takes the affection/love as the cornerstone of ideal marriage between male and female. Elizabeth as the leading character in this novel, was born in the family of squireen’s, and is loved by Darcy. Darcy propose marriage to her in spite of difference in the possession of property and social status, but is refused by Elizabeth for his pride , the novel demonstrate that if the pride of Darcy’s existed ， there will be no love and also happy marriage between Elizabeth and he, it is really nice that Elizabeth witness the changes of Darcy’s through series of behavior in the following days. viewing that he is no longer pride and then eliminating her prejudice to him, finally engaged with him and leading a happy marriage. The author described that female is in pursuit of independent personality and equal right through several different attitudes of Elizabeth for Darcy’s propose marriage. Meanwhile, demonstrate Elizabeth’s independent understanding for a happy marriage. In this article, the writer described several unperfect marriages of Elizabeth’s sisters and close friends, aimed at making a sharp contrast with Elizabeth’s beatific marriage and revealed that marriage without love but base on social status and property actually is a kind of public tragedies. Humorous, ironical, polished language and real storyline is also occurred in this article.

人生就是一场无止境的追求，无论成败与否，都是一个起点。成功与失败往往只是一念之差，失败并不可怕，可怕的是你没有面对失败的勇气。《老人与海》中的主人公圣地亚哥用他的实际行动向我们证明-——即使失败，也要成为一名英雄！

《老人与海》讲述了一位老渔夫圣地亚哥在连续八十四天没有捕到鱼的情况下，与大马林鱼机智地周旋、搏斗，正在归程中却一再遭到鲨鱼的袭击，最后回港时只剩下了鱼头和鱼尾以及一段骨骸。

“然而人不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能给打败。”在老人与大马林鱼的搏斗中，大马林鱼无疑成为了牺牲者，鲨鱼来到后，老人和大马林鱼一样，同样成为了牺牲者。老人与鲨鱼间的搏斗，正是老人的意志和一切强大的敌对力量抗争，而鲨鱼则化身成为了敌对力量的代表。虽然鱼肉都被咬去了，但什么也无法摧残老人的意志。老人圣地亚哥虽然是一位失败者，但是他敢于同恶势力抗争的精神，使他成为了英雄。所有东西都注定会毁灭，只有你的行动才是永存的。只有这样，你才会成为一个真正的成功者！

在生活中，挫折是必不可少的磨难。我们也许会因为难题而退缩，我们也许会因为落后的成绩而气馁，我们也许会因为考试而烦恼……这些小小的挫折不值一提，却往往成为人生路上的绊脚石。有些人会像老人圣地亚哥一样追越极限，在困境中迎难而上，即使失败了，也问心无愧。因为你做出了行动，你就是一个成功者！有些人却没有信心和勇气去直面失败和挫折，而是得过且过，最终被命运从成功的行列中抹除，成为一个无所事事的人。鲨鱼或许是最后的胜利者，但毋庸质疑的是，老人也是一位胜利者，他始终知道这伟大的“杰作”是属于他的。他没有向大海向大马林鱼，更没有向鲨鱼投降和妥协。我们也需要具备这种敢于同命运抗争的勇气。在任何时候，都把失败看成一种磨练，让它成为我们垫脚的基石，来攀登更高的山峰，挑战自我，直面缺陷，超越极限，你就是自己生命中最重要的英雄！

在人生的旅途中，哪会少得了失败？失败乃成功之母，人总会摔倒，只是看你能否重新爬起。是否还能勇敢地去面对，成功总在风雨后，只有经历了失败，才会体验那成功的来之不易。只要你用一颗顽强的心去对待，成功就在不远处向你招手。
