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.

Joy depicts the crisis of faith that overes Rabbi Banish of Komarov, who, having buried his four sons and two daughters. Only through the mercy of the God he has denied, manifest in a radiant vision of the dead Rebecca, his beloved youngest daughter, is the rabbi’s belief restored. The sense of wonder and the touch of heavenly joy that linger after the vision dissolves convince Rabbi Banish of the folly of judging God’s actions by human standards. The rabbi has interpreted the apparent tragedy of his children’s premature deaths as evidence of God’s alienation, forgetting that God is by definition inscrutable. That God’s purpose transcends man’s ability to prehend it is made clear to the expiring rabbi when the family dead approach his deathbed with arms outstretched to enfold him among them. For theirs is the kingdom of heaven to which a loving God has called them; and their deaths have evidenced not God’s wrath but his grace.

A version of Rabbi Banish’s deathbed revelation appears to Rabbi Nechemia in Something Is There. At twenty-seven he is already racked by the doubts that torment Rabbi Banish. So shaken is his belief in God that he deserts his rabbinical post in provincial Bechev for the flesh-posts of Warsaw. Although the prostitutes, unclean food, and shady business dealings which he witnesses there hold no attraction for the erstwhile rabbi, they intensify his revulsion from the world created by God and therefore his alienation from God himself. Unlike Rabbi Bainish, whose intimations of immortality and consequent rededication to God precede his radiant deathbed vision, Rabbi Nechemia cannot allay his doubts until the very moment of death, when a light he never knew was there flickered in hid brain.

While his dying words—something is there—resolve his crisis of faith, they e too late to affect the spiritual renewal attained by Rabbi Banish. No explicit promise of immortality, let along of salvation, attends Rabbi Nechemia’s vision. Perhaps grace is accorded Rabbi Banish because his doubt is triggered by devastating personal losses, and withheld from Rabbi Nechemia because his despair is the bitter fruit of idle speculation about the unknown. Whatever the reason, relatively few of Singer’s characters are granted at the moment of death the transcendent vision of unity between man and God that appears to Rabbi Banish in Joy. For the fortunate few, release from time into eternity is affected by a divine visitation which obliterates distinctions between past and present, living and dead.

These kinds of characters are lost in their world because of the seducement of the material world. They doubt their formal faith and gradually give up what they believed. But after they have experienced so much hardship, they realize that they cannot adapt to the life of the outer world so they regress to the former life with formal faith. They realize the importance of God and they begin to think seriously about the relationship between man and God. At last they find their right way of their life.

The Scarlet Letter offers an extraordinary insight into the norms and behavior of the 17th century if American Puritan society.The basic conflicts and problems of its main characters,however,are familiar to readers in the present.The female protagonist,has borne a child out of wedlock and has been jailed for over three months and sentenced to wear a symbol of her adultery,a scarlet “A” on her dress at all times.It concerns about the moral,emotional and psychological effect of the sin on people in general.It’s not simply a love story or a story of sin.The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne uses the scarlet letters to symbolize the harshness of Puritan society,showing how they brand sinners for life.

The story happened in Boston about 200 years ago.It narrates love affairs between three persons.The punished woman.Hester Prynne and his husband.Who called himself Roger Chillingworth .He is an old misshapen man and a doctor.Hester does not love him at all.Another man is a young minister,Dimmesdale,who has a high position among ministers and is highly respected among his people in town.Hester and Dimmesdale love each other.But their love is forbidden in that time .It is sinful.Due to this,Hester is punished by society with a letter A on her chest,which considered an evil,a shame.

In this novel,the mainline seems to be around the letter A.Hester is brave enough to face the cruel reality.She is always with a mind of courage.She has been alone with her child for so long ,with litter communication.Shame!Hopelessness!Loneliness!Hester has to wear the letter A day after day,seven years as for punishment and ill fame.

When a woman has lived through a difficult experience,her character changes a great deal.If she be all tenderness,she will die.If she survive,the tenderness will leave her .Hester’s charitable deeds and quiet humility have earned her a reprieve from the scorn of the community.The letter on her chest represents her work on earth ,always helping others,without expecting any thanks.Never afterwards,does that scarlet letter leave her chest.The townspeople no longer view the letter as a punishment ,but rather as representing her great strength and bravery and thy say it means “Able”.

But Arthur Dimmesdale,his sin against Hester and Pearl is that he will not acknowledge them as his wife and daughter in the daylight.He keeps his dreadful secret from all those under his care in the church for seven years for fear that he will lose their love and will not be forgiven.He is too weak to admit his sins.He suffers from mysterious heart trouble,seemingly caused by psychological distress.What’s worse,he is an advisor to the townspeople about their sins.

After Mr.Dimmesdale’s death ,no one changes more in appearance than Roger Chilling worth.All his strength and energy has been used to harm his patient .This unhappy man has made his aim in life to add to the suffering of the young minister.When the evil old man no longer has such a purpose,the devil takes him back to the hell .It is a curious subject of observation,however,whether hatred or love are not of the same place.Each takes a great deal of emotion from one person.The two feelings seem basically the same,expect that one is smiled upon by God,while the other is worshipped by the devil.

为了你,为了你所亲爱的任何人,我愿意做任何事情。倘若我的生命中有值得牺牲的可能和机会,我甘愿为你和你所爱的人们而牺牲。

——西德尼·卡尔顿

就这样被感动了。它是一部波澜壮阔的历史,它是一个感人肺腑的故事,它更是一种纯洁而高尚的爱。它就是狄更斯笔下的《双城记》。全书充溢着扑朔迷离的色彩,作者以一连串引人入胜的故事为框架,以十八世纪法国大革命为背景。在黑暗的资本主义社会里,农民阶级和工人阶级忍受着资产阶级无情的剥削。正如作者所说:“昌盛而又衰微,笃诚而又多疑,光明而又黑暗,这是充满阳光希望的黎明,又是阴暗失望的长夜,人们拥有一切,却两手空空。”而主人公西德尼·卡尔顿、露西·曼内特和查尔斯·达尔内之间真挚的情感,成为这部名著亮丽的一笔。

在小说中,狄更斯成功地塑造了主要人物鲜明的个性。曼内特是个深爱女儿的父亲,在经历磨难后仍宽容地把女儿嫁给仇人的儿子;露西是温柔善良的贤妻良母,为了让丈夫能看自己一眼每天风雨不改地到大墙对面站立两小时;查尔斯是个正直、豁达的贵族,与露西相爱,为了爱情甘愿放弃爵位与财产。

小说中还有一个人物,就是让人有点憎恶的泰雷兹·德伐日。失去亲人使她活着的唯一意义就是革命胜利之时为亲人报仇。可是等到革命胜利时,她许多年来梦寐以求的复仇却失去了对象,她的愤怒之深是可以想象的,然而为了发泄积愤却拿侯爵兄弟的儿子及其家人抵罪,她走上了一条与那些伪贵族同样残忍的道路,于是她的种种行为使她一步步失去了读者的谅解。最后,恶人有恶报,她戏剧性地因为枪走火而结束了自己充满仇恨的一生。也许这才是她最佳的结局。那些像德伐日那样以复仇为生活唯一目的的人,即使命运坎坷,也决不能博得人们的同情。

而在整篇小说中,最让我喜欢也是最令人感动的就是律师助手——西德尼·卡尔顿。他一出场就带着一身忧郁,隐去了光芒,总是灰心、失望、冷漠、凄凉。他妥协于周围环境,但有时却又显得格格不入,作为律师助手的他才华出众,却甘心情愿躲在人后,做别人成功的垫脚石,他仿佛亲手筑起了一堵墙,隔绝了名利、社会,默默地逗留在角落里。他与查尔斯长得十分相似,也同样深爱着露西,然而两者命运却截然不同。他羡慕查尔斯,也恨他。可在经历痛苦的煎熬后,他依旧带着诚挚的祝福,愿露西与查尔斯永远幸福,因为“爱比恨更为强有力得多”。这个表面上懒散、放纵的“无用之徒”,内心却是崇高而纯洁的。

终于,他向露西表达了自己的情感。每次读起那段话,难免感到心酸,“我希望你知道你是我灵魂最后的梦。我是在堕落的生活中看见你和你的父亲,还有你所经营的那个甜蜜的家,才恢复了我心中自以为早己死去的往日的梦想。我也因此才感到比任何时候都要凄凉可怜。自从我见到你以后,我才为一种原以为不会再谴责我的悔恨所苦恼。我听到我以为早已永远沉默的往日的声音在悄悄地催我上进…………”

当查尔斯因为家族的犯罪而被无辜判决死刑,西德尼竟然代替他去断头台接受行刑。在生命与爱之间,他选择了后者。他爱露西,为了她的幸福,他为她的爱人献出自己的生命。当他走上断头台的时候,面上依然保持着笑容,他信守对露西的诺言……因为,他的爱便是他的生命。此时此刻,我的脑海中想起了裴多菲的那首诗:“我愿意是急流/山里的小河/在崎岖的路上/岩石上经过/只要我的爱人是一条小鱼/在我的浪花中快乐地游来游去……”

尽管小说以一个意外的“大团圆”收场,但当读者流着眼泪读完该书时,却感到无限的遗憾、心酸。有人说爱情是自私的,但在狄更斯的《双城记》中,我却能深深地感受到一种超脱世俗的最纯洁、最崇高的爱。它隐藏在内心深处,但却无比的深厚;它默默地承受煎熬,为的只是使心爱的人幸福;它总是无私地付出,而不求一点儿的回报。这种爱在无形中上升到一个新境界,永恒地放着凄美而迷人的光彩。

“为了你,为了你所亲爱的任何人,我愿意做任何事情。倘若我的生命中有值得牺牲的可能和机会,我甘愿为你和你所爱的人们而牺牲。”

导语:《三国演义》是中国四大名著之一。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语读后感,欢迎阅读与借鉴,谢谢!

Recently I have read a famous Chinese classical novel-The romance of the Three Kingdoms and I felt benefit a lot. Let me tell you about my feelings.

The romance of the Three Kingdoms is one of the four great Chinese master pieces. It was written by Luo Guanzhong, who was born in 1330. It describes nearly 200 characters and tells the story from the late Eastern Han dynasty to the unified of Jin dynasty.

The minute I started to read this book, I was deeply impressed by the sentence at the beginning of the novel: "The empire, long divided, must unite; long united, must divide." It is so philosophical. It reflected the main history of the Three Kingdoms, from the rebellion of the Yellow Turbans to the replacement of the division of the country into Three Kingdoms (Wei, Shu and Wu) by the Jin Dynasty. In these periods, it showed a lot of heroic deeds, and what the heroes did had made a brilliant history. In this novel, the hero I admire mostly is Guan Yu, the general of Shu.

"A man of enormous height, nine spans tall, with a two-foot-long beard flowing from his rich, ruddy cheeks. He had glistening lips, eyes sweeping sharply back like those of the crimson-faced phoenix, and brows like nestling silkworms. His stature was imposing, his bearing awesome." This is Guan Yus appearance. He was called as hero not only because of his handsome looking, but because of his precious characters.

He is the embodiment of loyalty, wisdom and bravery. Once, when Guan Yu was having a battle with Cao Cao (the Master of Wei), he lost connection with Liu Bei(the Master of Shu), and finally he had to surrender because Liu Beis family was with him. Cao Cao appreciated Guan Yus talents, he provided a fabulous palace and lots of money to Guan Yu. Despite Guan Yu was taken good care of in the Cao Cao’s camp, but his heart was still with the Liu Bei’s camp. He had never given up looking for his master. As soon as he got the news of Liu Bei, Guan Yu had forced five passes and slew six captains, finally he found his master. His behavior showed not only his loyalty to his master but also his bravery.

Admittedly, Guan Yus death is also a lamentable. Because of his complacency, he looked down on the army of Wu, lost Jingzhou (an important City), finally, he flopped, and was killed by his personal enemy.

With his personal likes and dislikes, regardless of the consequences, it led to the disruption of the alliance between Wu and Shu, the whole situation was changed greatly.

Guan Yu’s lesson tells us: No matter how talented you are, you’d better remain modest and be humble.

This is a great novel that depicts the countless legendary stories. We can learn not only the characters of the heroes, but also the political and military strategies. It is a best way to experience the profound Chinese ancient culture. Tiancheng(Daniel)Dai

【参考译文】

最近我读了一本著名的中国古典小说>,我觉得受益匪浅。让我告诉你我的感受。

三国演义是中国四大名著之一。这是罗贯中写的,他出生于1330。它描述了近200个字,讲述了从东汉晚期到金朝统一的故事。

从我开始读这本书的那一刻起,我就对小说开头的一句话印象深刻:“帝国,长期分裂,必须团结;长期团结,必须分裂。”。它反映了三个王国的主要历史,从黄巾起义到国家部门更换成三个王国(魏、舒、吴)由晋。在这些时期,它表现了许多英雄事迹,英雄们做了辉煌的历史。在这部小说中,我最敬佩的英雄是舒将军关羽。

一个身材高大,身高九米,长着一二英尺长胡须的男人从他那红润红润的脸颊上流出。他有着闪亮的嘴唇,眼睛像深红色的凤凰一样深深地向后扫着,眉毛像刚开花的蚕。他的身材很高,他的举止令人敬畏.“这是关羽的样子。他之所以被称为英雄不仅是因为他英俊的外表,而是因为他珍贵的品格。

他是忠诚、智慧和勇敢的化身。有一次,当关羽和曹操(魏的主人)发生战斗时,他失去了与刘备(舒的主人)的联系,最后他不得不投降,因为刘备的家人和他在一起。曹操欣赏关羽的才华,他为关羽提供了一座华丽的宫殿和很多钱。尽管关羽在曹操的营地里得到了很好的照顾,但他的心仍然在刘备的营地里。他从未放弃寻找他的主人。关羽一听到刘备的消息,就强行传了五关,打死了六个上尉,最后他找到了他的主人。他的行为不仅表现出他对主人的忠诚,而且表现了他的勇敢。

诚然,关羽的死也是悲惨的。因为他的自满,他看不起吴的军队,失去了荆州(一个重要的城市),最后,他失败了,并被他的仇人杀死。

他不顾个人好恶,不顾后果,导致吴与舒的同盟破裂,整个局面发生了重大变化。

关羽的教训告诉我们:无论你多么有天赋,你最好保持谦虚和谦虚。

这是一部描写无数传奇故事的伟大小说。我们不仅可以学习英雄人物,而且可以学习政治和军事战略。是体验博大精深的中国古代文化的最佳途径。田成(丹尼尔)

篇5:双城记读后感

我相信每一个看过《双城记》的人,都会在震撼之余赞不绝口。由英国著名作家狄更斯所著的这部书,永垂不朽!名著就是名著,不管多少年过后,名著依然散发着璀璨光彩,更何。

我看《双城记》,原因是在网上有许多网友推荐,他们都说那是一本非常感人的书,我怀着好奇心就在网上下载来看,看完了一部分感觉还不错,就写下这篇读后感

“这是最好的时代,也是最坏的时代。”《双城记》开篇第一句话被无数次引用。但我猜知道这句话的人并一定小说《双城记》讲述了一个怎么样的故事,也不知道这句话为何而说。如果想理解这句话的原意,以及为何说写出这句经典名句,那自然是要读读原著的。

网上有人说,《双城记》只是描写了两个男人和一个女人的故事,但是我却觉得,那个人没有了解作者真正想表达的意思。以我看来,德发奇一家和法国贵族的仇恨也好,露西、查尔斯和西德尼的感情也好,都只是为了表现这场战争是谁引起的,为什么事而起的。虽然《双城记》是一本经典的小说,但因为其明确提出这段革命背景是法国大革命,于是对革命的表现就被认为是作者的历史观。而这正是对小说无数争议的焦点。狄更斯在小说中除了以细腻的笔墨展示了贵族的残忍,同样也展示了革命群众非理性的破坏。他认为,革命是一种压迫取代了另一种压迫,一场直接浓重的血腥暴*替代了另外一场血腥。对攻占巴士底狱以及对暴*民众的一系列描写——血腥,残忍,狡诈,恶毒是小说最为引人注目的地方。

文中《双城记》,最让我喜欢的是律师助手西德尼?卡尔顿。他第一次出现就与众不同,当法庭上的人若无其事地望着天花板时,而他的一张字条却揭晓了案件背后的阴谋。他一出场就带着一身的忧郁,作为律师的他算得上是才华出众,但却又情愿躲在人家的后面,做别人成功的垫脚石,他仿佛自己亲手筑起了一堵墙,与名利隔绝。他曾说过:“我是个绝望了的苦力,我不关心世上任何人,也没有任何人关心我。”

是啊,我们不应该渴望出名,那样就学不到更多的知识。也许做别人背后的垫脚石,还能操你个别人那里学到更多的知识,我们能够看到他的长处和短处,学习他的长处,抛掉自己的短处。

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.

天边泛着微光,我站在两城接壤的地方,写下这度日如年的思念的离骚。

——题记

当我决定要离开这座小城的时候,它已变成了一座故城。

十二月的风偷恋下一个花季,十二月的我站在这风里,端祥这座伴我走过了十四年的小城,眺望那场命中注定的分离。夜,蚀了整片天空。不知是谁家燃起的烟花,在这匹缎子上绽放出这般绚丽的年华。我静静地欣赏着,为这烟花的斑斓色彩而沉醉不已。然而醉翁之意不在酒,小城的灯火辉煌把某人的心事照得如此明朗,回想起当年那片贫脊荒芜的土地如今幻化成壮丽的水泥森林,我不由得会心一笑。

可是,我明了就算再华丽的绽放也不过一瞬,就算再绚烂的烟花也逃不脱凋零的结局,残留缕缕青烟萦绕天际。或许,这就是它的宿命,而我的宿命似乎也被拭上了悲切的粉底,尽管我知道与小城分离俨然是别无的选择,尽管我早已做好准备来面对,泪还是忍不住决了堤,染湿我的眼襟。小城安祥的模样开始变得模糊,变得渐离渐远。我恐惧,恐惧就这样别了她朦胧的纱衣,芳香的气息和浅浅的笑意。于是我来到了熙攘的旧街,试图重走十四年间牵绊而过的锦色流年。我沿着人流逆行,和那些与我带着同样气息的陌生人一次次擦肩,他们扬起的嘴角,愤怒而可爱的神情总是让我感到无比温馨,连流血的心也忘却了痛意,忘却了所谓的别离。噢,我亲爱的父老乡亲们。

路过旧时光,童年的那张笑颜已不复存在,年少的那份欢悦今在何方,青春的那丝忧郁又在何处,面对失去,我不语,只是木讷似地满世界找寻,找寻关于小城的记忆,找寻属于我的曾经的足迹。可惜,只是徒劳罢,时间怎么会再给予我一次机遇,让我在同一座小城里遇见故去的自己?时间哟时间,你公平得太过残忍,你流逝得太过迅疾。

还好,在我的心中一直坐落着另外一座城,它的模样与故城何其酷肖,连渗透的气息都出奇的一致。每每在我感到孤独无助之时,慷慨地向我敞开那扇心城之门,为这个少年提供宣泄情感的空间,把所有的不愉快都抛到光年之外。而今,面对离别,我选择放下,在那座禁锢的心城中,释放出最真实的自己。短暂而漫长的守候,我孤身一人补修着丝丝已断的情弦,和着故城特有的气息,谱一曲婉转曲折的离别,奏一首载满负荷的挂念。

最后我还是提起了沉重的行李箱,踱出了这座承载着我太多记忆的小城。十二月的风多了几分凛冽,十二月的城也笼上了几丝凄清,一切早已灰飞湮灭,物是人非,仿佛在为这一别埋下不言而喻的伏笔。空气中充斥着莫名的湿气。不觉地,哀寂已在心田中酝酿,恰似一支动人的不忍的离歌在我耳畔断续哼起,音符零落,碎了一地。

别了,那个名叫“惠水”的小城。

用眼镜当镜头,脑海当胶片,在按下快门的瞬间,她的容颜被定格在永远,成为一种铭记的证据。请容许我一直走不回头,因为我怕会我踌躇不决,停下前进的脚步。小城啊,待我归来寻你的芳迹,心中的灯火阑珊定会倍加绚丽!

以后的日子里,我将站在那座心城里,感受熟悉的气息,想念那座故去的小城,续写这说不完的“双城记”,续写那剪不断的游子情。

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.

篇11:双城记读后感

“这是最好的时代,也是最坏的时代。”《双城记》开篇第一句话被无数次引用。但我猜知道这句话的人并一定小说《双城记》讲述了一个怎么样的故事,也不知道这句话为何而说。如果想理解这句话的原意,以及为何说写出这句经典名句,那自然是要读读原著的。

“简而言之,那个时代与当今这个时代是如此相似。”这句话其实解释了上述经典句子的两个问题:为何这么说,对谁而说。这也就是小说出世的原因之一,狄更斯希望通过这样一本小说,通过描述法国大革命给人民大众带来灾难来表示自己的担心,同时告诫英国的危险处境。一段革命史,两座分别代表两个国家的城市,几个风雨飘摇中的人,构成了小说的主要素。

虽然《双城记》是一本经典的小说,但因为其明确提出这段革命背景是法国大革命,于是对革命的表现就被认为是作者的历史观。而这正是对小说无数争议的焦点。狄更斯在小说中除了以细腻的笔墨展示了贵族的残忍,同样也展示了革命群众非理性的破坏。他认为,革命是一种压迫取代了另一种压迫,一场直接浓重的血腥暴*替代了另外一场血腥。对攻占巴士底狱以及对暴*民众的一系列描写——血腥,残忍,狡诈,恶毒是小说最为引人注目的地方。

狄更斯把在描写暴民邪恶之处倾心了大量的笔墨,展示了他对暴民的痛恨,从某种层度上可以说是对革命的痛恨。当然,作为人道主义者的狄更斯也指出了拯救世界的良药:爱。这种爱,体现在小说中的包括亲情,爱情,友情这种私人间的感情,也包括抛弃贵族,拯救苍生的那种博爱。其中,最为出彩的是对卡顿之爱的描写。

我非常喜欢卡顿。实际上,卡顿就是狄更斯的化身,狄更斯正是首先想到了卡顿这个人与他身上的某种精神进而构思成这本小说的。那么,卡顿是怎么样一个人呢?小说中描述:“太阳悲悲切切,切切悲悲的冉冉升起,它所照见的景物,没有比这个人更惨的了。他富有才华,情感高尚,却没有施展才华流露情感的机会,不能有所作为,也无力谋取自己的幸福。他深知自己的症结所在,却听天由命,任凭自己年复一年的虚度光阴,消耗殆尽。”

这是个自甘堕落湮没了自己的才华与青春的年轻人,为何自甘堕落?小说中似乎并没有交代,自从他一出场就是如此,并且也没有对他的家事背景描写也并不多。个人认为,这个人代表狄更斯自己,因此他无需过多描述——卡顿的堕落,源于自己对日渐堕落的社会的失望。他走上断头台前曾说过,“我看到这个时代的邪恶,与造成这一恶果的前一时代的邪恶,逐渐为自己赎了罪而消亡。”

被自己遗弃的悲观者——卡顿,在朋友遇到困难,在所钟爱的女子的丈夫即将被送上断头台时,他突然出现,被救人还不之所以的情况下,以自己的生命做代价,在紧要关头使了个掉包计策救出了自己的所爱女子的丈夫。

这不正是基督之爱么,为自己赎了罪而消亡。事实上,小说中的卡顿也确实以圣经的口吻在临死前说,“复活在我,生命在我,信我的人,虽然死了,也必复活;凡活着信我的人,必永远不死。”这就是狄更斯为“最坏的时代”开出的良药,然而这毕竟是一种理想。有人说,《双城记》作为一部不朽的著作,如果没有西德尼。卡顿的存在与所作所为,这部小说就失去了它的价值和光辉。

篇12:《奥林匹克》英文读后感

全文共 3472 字

+ 加入清单

The Olympic Games, which originated in ancient Greece, is the most distinguished sporting event in the world. Once every four years, the utmost athletes from all around are lured to gather together and spare no efforts to compete against each other and try to win a medal for the country that they represent. Frankly speaking, that was virtually all I knew about the world-famous Olympic Games before I had read a book entitled The Olympics published by Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press. However, I found even more philosophy beyond just winning medals from reading the book, which was beyond my imagination and considerably inspiring.

Someone once said, “Were everybody on earth involved in some kind of sport, our world would be free of war for long.” Starting from three thousand years ago, the ancient Olympic Games has long been an event not only for competition but also for peace. In ancient times, no war was allowed between the cities during the Games, which was rather surprising to me since I could hardly imagine warriors actally putting down their weapons and give a break for peace. The precious tradition of peace continued: I would never fail to recall the scene of the opening ceremonies when North and South Korean athletes entering the stadium with their hands held together. The two neighboring countries that used to be enemies are no longer enemies during the Games. Instead they became friends. Speaking of the XX Athens Olympics, perhaps most people would have the same opinion that the most noable part of the opening ceremony arrived when Iraqi and Afghan representatives showed up. These two unfortunate nations, the people of which have undergone innumerable wars, are coming back again to take their own responsibility in world sports after recent invasions by America. The fearless people of Iraq and Afghanistan are once more sharing the spirit of the Games with people from the rest of the world.

There is another story in this book that makes me deep in thoughts. There is no doubt that the most unusual Olympic Games ever in history is the 1936 Olympics held in Germany, which was then ruled by the Nazi Party. Led by Adolf Hitler, the Nazi believed that the so-called Aryan people were superior to all others in all aspects. They looked down upon Jews and blacks, the latter of which was a major constitution of the United States Olympic team. Despite the barrier that faced him, the African American Jesse Owens, who was a most outstanding runner and jumper, did all that he could and finally won gold medals for his country and went home a hero. This reveals another fact that no power on earth is able to hinder the sacred Olympic Games. For all participants, no matter what their gender, race, nationalities and backgrounds are, equality is distributed among every one who observes the Game’s rules.

At the XX Athens Olympics, our Chinese team did extraordinarily well. We ranked second on the medal lists for the first time in history. In my opinion, however, we should not only concentrate on the figure of medals; instead the strength and perseverance of those who failed to get any medals ought to be highly cherished. Whether ever success or failure, whether ever cheer or tear, whether ever medal or not, the never-gave-up spirits of athletes are always motivating us. I believe in the year 2008, the world will focus all their attention to Beijing, China, where the glory of the Games will continue to thrive forever!

The tale of two cities is a historical story, one of Dickens’ long fictions.The background to the novel is the revolution of France .It portrayed a brutal and bloody story , but it also contained love and friendship.

In the novel, Dickens sarcastically described a typical cruel nobleman—marquis of Evermonde . When he was young he and his brother stole a countrywoman by force and killed her family .What’s worse , he used his power to imprison Dr Manette , a kind and honest man who knew all the things they had done and wanted to disclose their crimes . In order to hide their crimes. Marquis of Evermonde and his brother threw Doctor Manette into prison for 18 years . During these 18 years,Doctor Manette lost his freedom and suffer a great in spirit .

I felt unthinkable that Marquis of Evermonde and his brother killed people just as easily as they killed chickens. They deprived other people’s freedom as they liked and they thought it was normal and unremarkable. They had never realized that they had done something wrong or something improper. Because their nature was cruel and evil, like demons. There is an old saying which means: People who commit too many crimes will kill themselves. After all, there is justice in the world. The demons can’t be rampant forever. Because the world will not forgive them. They will pay their lives for their crimes. Let’s see the consequence of the Marquis,’’He lay there like a stone with a knife pushed into his heart.” I think it was just what he ought to gain and it is a real exciting scene.

The Marquis’ death was just the beginning of people’s resistance to the nobleman. Gradually more and more people joined in the revolution. One after another nobleman were sentenced to death and their heads were cut down . However, some innocent people were implicated in the revolution. Charles Darney was one of them He was the nephew of Marquis of Evermonde. To the opposite of his uncle, Darney was a kind and independent young man.

Dickens spoke highly of kindness mercy and love in the novel too. This is the other thone of the novel when Doctor Manette was released from prison. It was his daughter Lucie who took care of him and helped him return to normal. During this time, Dr manette and Lucie knew Charles Darney and Sydeny Carton, the two young man fell in love with Lucie at the same time . At last, Lucie married Chares Darney .Dr Manette accepted Darney as his son-in-law although he knew that Darney was the nephew of the man who threw him into prison for18 years. This is the love between father and daughter. And Sydeny Carton , the very great man ,loved Lucie deeply. He promised Lucie that he would do everything for her happiness. He did it truely ,he sacrificed himself instead of Darney who looked the same as him. This is love for lovers . This is the most wonderful thing in the world. It also reminds us that no matter how no matter when there is true love existing. At the end , Lucie, Dr Manette and Darney arrived in England safely.

The tale of two cities is different from other historical fictions. Its characters and main plots are fictional under the real background of the revolution of France. The author made the experience of the fictional charactor Dr Manette as the main clue.The plots are complicated, and they are flexuous and dramatic. The structure is complete and rigorous.

Dickens had dear love and hate. He praised those who ought to be praised and attacked those who ought to be attacked. The motivation of the novel maybe just warn the English dominators. But I think we can learn something meaningful from the tale of two cities.

这个假期,我利用空余时间阅读了狄更斯的《双城记》,也有了些体悟,下面我来把我的感受写下来。

一、情节布置

这部著作的情节是十分玄妙的,作者把各种线索串联起来,如文中所说的一样“编织”成了这部小说。小说最大的特点是人物关系复杂:如马 奈特医生和达南的关系;德发奇太太与达南的关系——这两个关系直接导致了最后的悲剧。还有洛瑞先生与德发奇的关系以及格仑舍与密探的关系等等。这些复杂的人物关系使此部著作情节环环相扣。

这本书最有特色的一个章节是顿临死前与一位小姑娘的对话,从这番对话中彻底揭示了革命群众过于疯狂以及善将永存的主旨。

二、人物特点

本书最重要的人物是查尔斯·达南(埃弗蒙德)。他是一个很矛盾的人,他非常憎恨自己的父亲与叔父,但是他还必须支撑整个家族的产业。所以,当老仆人给他写信 时,他便不得不回到法国。他是一个善良的人,具备一位贵族所具有的文明气质,并且当他去会见自己的叔父时,他明确提出了“不能再迫害人民”的说法。同时,他放弃了贵族特权,本来就是一件善事。

悉尼·卡顿也是位重要人物。在读这部小说的前半部分时,我一直不大喜欢这个随意、懒惰的人物。但是在往后读的过程中,我发现他是一个敢作敢为、足智多谋的人。虽然是“朋友”,但实际上卡顿和达南的关系并没有那么好,但是为了他们一家人幸福滴生活,卡顿甘愿走上断头台,让达南逃跑,而自己成了永恒的善的化身。在文章中提到卡顿死时“犹如一位先知“。

德发奇夫妇也属于本书中的焦点人物。德发奇本人是个善良的人,他收留了马奈特医生,并且在大革命之后告诉自己的夫人见好就收。而德发奇太太就是个复仇者,她受过埃弗蒙德兄弟的迫害,所以她一心想杀掉法国所有贵族。当然,由于她的过激行为,使她最后死于普洛士小姐手中。

In reality, though he failed, but in spirit, he is the winner. Here, the old man is not only represents a person, but to represent a force, a kind of spirit, that is to let a person admire perseverance, the spirit of never yielding. I also very admire the novel old fishermans will, he let me know how a man must be strong, cant meet the frustration is losing, that will never be a one thing.

这本书讲了古巴的一个名叫桑地亚哥的老渔夫,独自一个人出海打鱼,在一无所获的84天之后钓到了一条无比巨大的马林鱼。这是老人从来没见过也没听说过的比他的船还长两英尺的一条大鱼。鱼大劲也大,拖着小船漂流了整整两天两夜,老人在这两天两夜中经历了从未经受的艰难考验,终于把大鱼刺死,拴在船头。然而这时却遇上了鲨鱼,老人与鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗,结果大马林鱼被鲨鱼吃光了,老人最后拖回家的只剩下一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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