巴黎圣母院英语读后感20篇

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.

The writer writing unfolds, first is entire French societys one typical window -----small city Varriales political pattern. The aristocrat is born German Switzerland that mayor is restores the dynasty in here highest representative, the maintenance restoration political power, prevents the bourgeoisie free party member is in power in politics regards as the inherent responsibilities. Poor collection post manager Valno the promise originally is the petty bourgeois, as a result of hires oneself the church secret organization saint can obtain the now the fat difference, thus oneself with restoration political power hitch in same place. Transcription hall Father Maslon is the spy which the church sends, all peoples words and deeds all under his surveillance, the time which mutually supports in this king place and the sacrificial altar, is person which wields great power with great arrogance. These three people constitute " Three heads Politic ", reflected the restoration influence the aspect which you the city arrogated all powers to oneself in Varriale.But their opposite, is a large number, has the huge economic potentiality aggressive bourgeoisie free party member. Stendhal describes to the people guarantees king party members be domineering and tyrannical, on the one hand again let the people draw such conclusion: Grasps has the economic potentiality the bourgeoisie, also will decide in politics is the final victor. 《 The Red and the Black 》 the book in circulation revolutionized in July, 1830 before, takes charge of soup reaches unexpectedly picture is understands clearly historical movement this one inevitably tends to.

This book let me the deepest impression is the author of some of the buildings, the symbol of the power and lavish church let people under the guise of the sacred religion to show the aesthetic view of architect. The human nature deeply buried beneath a sacred religious coat, the typical character is vice bishop, Claude.

Church how eerie, this lets a person associate to under the block of religion, then society is how dirty and corrupt. True, the good and the beautiful religious use religion to make bloody incident, formed a strong resistance. Full text can let a person heart deeply understand to the lost, confused and upset.

If you have a sword, youll do your best to Pierce that layer of clouds in society, you full of anger and contempt for it, just like in the book of the tramps treat society crazy revenge.

Dont the same treatment as the angels and demons, to the whims of numerous dirty, filled with our eyes. This book made me see a different world, it profoundly reveals the inner world of people. At any moment, the person is in common: a passion for the good, the pursuit of good,s praise of the good... As the angels and demons which one you want to be?

这本书让我印象最深刻的就是作者对一些建筑的描写，那些象征着权力与奢华的教堂让人们都假借着神圣的宗教来展现建筑家的审美观。把人性深深的埋在一件神圣的宗教外衣下面，典型的人物就是副主教——克洛德。

教堂里多么阴森恐怖，这让人联想到在宗教的遮拦下，当时社会是怎样的肮脏和败坏。真、善、美的宗教利用宗教制造血腥事件，形成了强烈的反抗。全文会让人的心灵深刻体会到迷茫、困惑和不安。

如果有一把利剑，你一定会尽你的全力去刺破那层蒙在社会上的阴云，你对它充满了愤怒和鄙视，就像书里面的那些流浪汉们对待社会的疯狂报复。

不一样的待遇，就像天使和恶魔，林林总总的肮脏的巧取豪夺，充斥着我们的眼睛。这本书让我看到了不一样的世界，它深刻地揭示了人们的内心世界。无论在什么时刻，人的共性是始终存在的：对美好的向往，对美好的追求，对美好的赞美……就看天使与恶魔你想当哪一个?

It took me a week to read a book encouraging morale, called "the old man and the sea". I greatly admire, San Diego, the old man, if you read the story below, maybe you would like me to admire him.

Cuba, San Diego, the old man has nothing for eighty-four days, eighty-five days, with blessing and bait is stubbornly sailing out to sea again, he will go to deep to catch a big fish. This time, he met a pair of feet was eighteen feet long and is greater than he, he told the big silver fish (marlin) filled with admiration and respect, at the same time, the more aroused the determination to San Diego to challenge it. Big fish and the old man silently confrontation, sometimes take the ship to the deep sea, alternately circling boats, and want to use set off waves of the boat upset... Old man and big fish fight for two days and two nights, in the process, he constantly and fish, birds and sea dialogue, constant to or when they remember past events. With indomitable willpower and strong faith, he finally held up, conquered the behemoth. Unexpected is that the old man is going to pull the marlin back, large Numbers of sharks are attracted to over eat bundle of marlin on the boat. Although exhausted, San Diego, the old man go to great lengths to fight with sharks, but still being in that big fish shark bite only a empty frame. In the end, the San Diego old man dragged the vast empty skeleton back to the shore.

Old man of the spirit and idea of on their own, the lampholder support, he finally defeated the big fish, also defeated failure, defeated himself. We also should have this spirit in learning, such as difficulties in math, you should learn more, do not easily give up.

我花了一个星期读一本鼓舞人斗志的书，叫《老人与海》。我非常佩服圣地亚哥老人，如果你看了下面的故事，也许你会像我一样佩服他。

古巴的圣地亚哥老人已经八十四天一无所获了，第八十五天，带着祝福和鱼饵又顽强地驾船出海了：他要去深海捕一条大鱼。这一次他碰上了一条足有18英尺长，比他还大的鱼，他对这条大银鱼(马林鱼)充满了赞美和尊敬，同时这更激起了圣地亚哥向它挑战的决心。大鱼与老人默默地对峙，时而把船拖向深海，时而围着船打转，时而要用掀起的巨浪把船打翻……老人与大鱼奋战了两天两夜，在这个过程中，他不断地和鱼、鸟和大海对话，不断地想或回忆往事。凭着顽强的毅力和坚强的信念，他终于挺了过来，征服了那个庞然大物。意想不到的是，在老人将要把马林鱼拖回去的时候，大批的鲨鱼被吸引而来，争吃捆在船边上的马林鱼。已经筋疲力尽的圣地亚哥老人虽然竭尽全力与鲨鱼搏斗，但那条大鱼仍旧被成群的鲨鱼咬得只剩下一副空空的骨架。最后，圣地亚哥老人把这巨大的空骨架拖回了岸边。

老人靠自己的精神与理念，坚韧地支撑着，他最终战胜了大鱼，也战胜了失败，战胜了自己。我们在学习上也要有这种精神，如：在做数学题时遇到难题，就应该多动动脑，不要动不动就放弃。

圣母院里的钟次第的敲响，咚咚，咚咚……沉重地，凄婉地，好像在陈述着一个故事。

那是些浓烈得化不去，深刻得褪不了的形象：独眼的敲钟人伽西莫多，美丽善良的爱斯梅拉达，还有渊博却邪恶的克洛德副主教。

初始，伽西莫多的出场仿佛给我投射了一个丑恶的影象。他的独眼，他的聋哑，他的驼背，他的巨大和丑陋都让我先入为主地把他当作了大反派。婴儿时，他是一个人人见了都想把他烧死的丑小鸭;青年时，他是一个表面风光但人人唾弃的”愚人王”，他的脸仿佛注定了他就是恶魔的化身。到后来，我才看清他那清澈、崇高的灵魂。他对像使唤奴隶一样、役使他的克洛德忠心耿耿，这是怎样的一种单纯?他对曾经对他有恩的爱斯梅拉达，用尽全部生命的悉心照料和赴汤蹈火，是怎样的一种如火一般刚烈的爱情?他受尽了人世间的歧视和欺凌，却又满足的，勤劳的当着他的敲钟人。如此美丽，如此可敬的人性难道在他那丑陋的外表下就一文不值了吗?

相比而言，如果说伽西莫多的外表丑陋，那么克洛德的心灵便更加令人鄙视。一开始，良好的背景让我觉得他是个学识渊博的善良人——他收养了丑陋的伽西莫多，他是人人敬畏的副主教……但是当故事的情节愈演愈烈时，我读懂了他精神世界中的畸形。他不择手段的“爱”，让他卑鄙的、变态地劫持爱斯梅拉达，并且因“爱”成恨地要置她于死地。这是一种自私的、低微的、霸道的“爱”，充满了病态的“爱”，那不算是爱，只是伤害……

然而，那书中最美的笔墨都倾注在了爱斯梅拉达身上：她美丽，因为她有一张天真清纯的脸孔;她善良，因为她的内心充满了同情和爱心;她可以为了保存甘果瓦的生命而嫁给他，她给饥渴难堪却无人理睬的敲钟人送水……她有菩萨一般无人能及的心肠，她有倾国倾城的美貌，她是善与美的化身!

怎么能不引起我的思考?人性的层层面面是多么复杂却简单：尽管人的精神世界是双面的，没有完全的丑，也没有绝对的美。但是，美就是进步的方向，美就是最原始的目的。就像书中说得那样：

“美就是完整，美就是全能，美就是唯一有生命力的东西”。

当灭灯钟响彻在巴黎圣母院里，所有故事都结束了……但那古老的故事将永恒地被传诵……

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.

After several days of effort, I finished watching "Don Quixote" this book. It is the representative work of Spanish writer Cervantes, full name for the strange feeling different think gentleman Don Quixote, Taiwan, la has ", a total of two rolls up and down. Novel wrote, aged more than 50 of the country gentlemen Don Quixote, crazy for love knight novel, the story of the average computer-virus. Authors nonsense from the knight novel Don Quixote knight contents and real life mixed with each other, thus resulting in a series of absurd behavior a belly laugh. Him as a giant, the windmill war with it, though in a career on the way, he was cut down one ear, out many teeth, have also been interrupted several ribs, is often war often hurt, but wrong-headed, do not know to repentance. Through this absurd behavior, can feel the authors praise of the aspirations of the ideal society and noble moral.

Social climate is becoming worse now, many young because of not good reading, do the small theft etc. Bad deeds. And others fell on the chair a mobile phone, the humanistic saw should be returned to their rightful owners, or call 110, but conscience never compete greed, directly turned around mobile phones, sneaked away again. Also, bank card switch events, when you do not pay attention to, blocking the card with the hand, immediately to use only one or two seconds, was successful. Social ethos is not to force, it can be very awesome, the monitor and police everywhere now are bad "mousetrap", tight dragnet, grasp not only thing in the morning and evening. Like drunk driving, or some loophole, finally revoked certificates not only, also sit in the classroom. Gods mill grinds slow but sure, now do bad things, you will regret.

Don Quixote limbs developed, simple, and finally the proper price, reading a book not too obsessed, or you will average computer-virus, control yourself, we dont like.

经过几天的努力，我看完了《堂吉诃德》这本书。它是西班牙作家塞万提斯的代表作，全名为《奇情异想的绅士堂吉诃德·台·拉·曼却》，共上下两卷。小说写了一位年逾五旬的乡下绅士堂吉诃德，因酷爱读骑士小说而陷入疯狂，走火入魔的故事。作者笔下的堂吉诃德骑士将骑士小说中的无稽内容与现实生活互相混交，因此从而产生一连串令人捧腹大笑的荒唐行为。他一下把风车当做巨人，与它大战，虽然在骑士生涯的途中，他被砍了一只耳朵，打掉了许多牙齿，也被打断了几根肋骨，虽屡战屡败，却执迷不悟，不知悔改。透过这种荒唐的行为，可以感受到作者对理想社会的热望和高尚道德的赞美。

现在社会风气越来越差，许多少年因不好好读书，很小就干上了偷窃等恶劣的勾当。还有，别人在椅子上落了一个手机，看见的人本应该还给失主，或拨打110，可良心终究敌不过贪婪，直接一转身将手机收入囊中，再溜之大吉。还有，银行卡调包事件，在你不注意时，立刻用手挡住卡，再只用一两秒的时间，就成功了。社会的风气不给力，可监控与民警很给力，现在到处都是坏人的“老鼠夹”，天罗地网，抓不抓只是早晚的事。像酒驾，还是有人乘机钻空子，最后不仅吊销了证件，还坐上了班房。天网恢恢，疏而不漏，现在做坏事，你一定就会后悔。

堂吉诃德四肢发达，头脑简单，最后付出了应有的代价，看书不能太沉迷了，否则就会走火入魔，控制不住自己，我们千万不能这样。

If we say that when I was holding "War and Peace" This book is, with respect mood , then, when I read "War and Peace" this book, I heart it can not be quiet for a long time. Because, before that, on the Russian writer Lev? Tolstoy "War and Peace", I have heard a lot of that today, when I complete the study of "War and Peace" after the novel of the novel and its author had a deeper understand .

Russian writer Lev Tolstoy is one of the world no one can almost anywhere else in the a great writer. He literary creation, not only numerous, but the rich genre known as the 19th century social life of Russia encyclopedia as a mirror reflection of the real Russian social life during that period all the contradictions and the great social change.

"War and Peace" by Paul, Bezuhov, Rostov, Huaxi in the four noble family in the years of war and peace life for plot clues, vividly demonstrated from 1805 to 1820 inter - Russia Austrian coalition with the French army in Austerlitz battle, the French invasion of Russia, Moscow fire rout the army of Napoleon and a series of important historical events, showing the soldiers patriotism and heroism spirit, extolling the spirit of the Russian people and the people of enemy forces a great victory. Spectacular scenes, structural clarity, with a strong sense of the times. Experience the deepest is that the novel is very vivid characters, rich character.

Andrew personality as introverted, strong-willed, strong social activities; lack of practical activities, more emphasis on moral ideals pursuit; heroine Natasha is Emotion is a rich, vibrant, loving nature, closer to the people, with national temperament a woman. They defend the homeland, war has been tempered and the growth of the main characters in the image of these have a higher recognize the value and aesthetic value. By Kula payments on behalf of court nobles greed, hypocrisy and degradation personality, has been portrayed by the naked, and carried out a ruthless whipping.

I think, "War and Peace" This novels, for me, though a bit esoteric but fresh, but through this study, I do the worlds masterpiece of the initial understanding and the desire to learn.

如果我们说,当我拿着这本书是“战争与和平”,关于心情,然后,当我读《战争与和平》这本书,我的心不能安静了很长一段时间。因为,在此之前,在俄罗斯作家列夫?托尔斯泰《战争与和平》,我听过很多,今天,当我完成《战争与和平》的研究在小说的小说及其作者有一个更深层次的理解。

俄国作家列夫•托尔斯泰是世界上其他地方几乎没有人能在一个伟大的作家。他的文学创作,不仅很多,而且丰富的类型被称为19世纪俄罗斯社会生活的百科全书的镜面反射真正的俄罗斯社会生活在此期间所有的矛盾和巨大的社会变革。

达官,的别祖霍夫“战争与和平”,保罗,罗斯托夫,华西村在贵族家庭的四年的战争与和平的生活情节线索,生动地展示了从1805年到1820年国际米兰——俄罗斯与法国军队在奥斯特利茨战役中,奥地利联盟法国入侵俄罗斯,莫斯科火溃败军队拿破仑和一系列重要的历史事件,显示士兵们爱国主义和英雄主义精神,赞美俄罗斯人民的精神和人民的敌人一个伟大的胜利。壮观的场面,结构清晰,强烈的时代感。体验最深的是,这部小说非常生动的角色,丰富的角色。

安德鲁性格内向,意志坚强,强大的社会活动;缺乏实践活动,更强调道德理想追求,女主角娜塔莎是感情丰富,充满活力,热爱大自然,接近人民,国家气质的女人。他们保卫祖国,战争已经缓和,增长的主要人物的形象这些有较高的认识价值和审美价值。由库拉支付代表宫廷贵族的贪婪、虚伪和堕落的个性,描绘了裸体,进行了无情的鞭打。

我认为,《战争与和平》这小说,对我来说,虽然有点深奥但新鲜,但通过这个研究,我世界的杰作最初的理解和学习的欲望。

These days, I read the book "pride and prejudice", immediately mixed feelings in the heart, mind, and Im ripping mad. "Pride and prejudice" mainly about the British in the 19th century social middle class farmer Mr Daughters of romantic story. Eldest daughter JiAn gentleness docile, beautiful, with weak character of rich kids bentley love at first sight, but at a crucial moment had twists and turns. Second daughter, Elizabeth smart beautiful, have ambition, have definite view, darcy met with riches. A withdrawn, introverted darcy is proud, but love for Elizabeth stubborn personality independence, but his love for the first time but it was rejected, finally found upon Elizabeth darcy is not prosperous, the pursuit of the good qualities of love. At the same time, the bentley also get a friends support and JiAn meet again, two couple then became lovers.

By reading this book, I learned that in the early 19th century British society on the marriage between the upper and middle class society and the world human sentiment, and the author of the true love can go beyond the conflict between different classes, eliminates arrogance, eliminate prejudice, to achieve a perfect marriage of this ideal state.

这几天，我读了《傲慢与偏见》这本书，心中顿时百感交集，思绪万千，心情久久不能平静。《傲慢与偏见》主要讲的是英国19世纪处于社会中产阶层的农场主柏纳特先生几个女儿的婚恋故事。大女儿姬安温柔善良，美丽可人，与性格软弱的富家子弟宾利一见倾心，但在关键时刻却产生了波折。二女儿伊丽莎白聪慧清丽，有志气，有主见，与家产万贯的达西相识。达西性格内向，孤僻高傲，却对伊丽沙白独立倔强的个性产生了爱慕，可他的第一次求爱却遭到了拒绝，最后达西发现伊丽莎白身上具有不图富贵，追求真情的可贵品质。同时，宾利也得到朋友的支持与姬安再次相见，两对新人便结成了眷属。

通过读这本书，我了解到19世纪初期英国社会上层与中层不同阶级之间在联姻上的门第观念和世事人情，以及作者塑造的真正的爱情可以超越不同阶层的对立，消除傲慢，消除偏见，达到完美婚姻的这一理想境界。

Huckleberry Finn was a great literary work published in 1885 and written by Mark Twain. One of the most positive things about the book would be that the reading level is not very advanced and that it shows us a glimpse of the past. Along with the reading level not being very advanced, the book itself is extremely well thought out, and brings the stories, characters, and imagery to life. One of the negatives is the amount of cursing that takes place throughout the book. This is a negative because it is at a children"s reading level and it does not add any literary value to the book as a piece of history. The ugly but I believe necessary part of the book is the use of the n-word. This is a necessary part of the book because it shows to our children and everyone the meaning behind the word. If anything it makes the reader more understanding of the troubles that the slaves when though and understand the meaning of the word a little more deeply.

This book was great, a masterpiece for the lack of words to describe how entirely wonderful it is. The book was a great classic, the only reason that I did read it is because we have to read a classic for school, however, now that I have read it I realize that it was a great book. I would read this book two or three times, and I do not like reading books again. The book was really able to portray the idea of childhood innocence and foolishness in the book, especially the end. I thought that this book was really an eye opener for people who may think that life is not worth living or maybe derpessed. Because, as you can see, Huck was a young boy who had an alcoholic father who beat him all the time, even kidnapped him after he was adopted by other people. Huck even decided to run away from his father, yet he is still a young, fun loving kid in the end, especially when Tom reveals to him how the whole trip was just a game. The only thing I have to say against the book is that it did seem a little racist with its words, however maybe this is just how they talked in that time period? Overall a great read that I highly reccomend.

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。

Marchi family home while the girls poor, but they have it has anything positive and optimistic attitude. Novels stressed their individuality and dignity, but they have shown self-restraint, self-reliance and independence are the four girls are the common characteristics they always keep to identify their weaknesses and efforts to correct. It is also worthy of everyones learning.

I like Meg, like her love to be willing to poverty, not by the temptation of money for the character of ladies like her style. I like Joe, like her freely, like her dream and work hard for the unwavering determination. I like Beisi, like her quiet, do anything Haowuyuanyan, for others like her always think of good moral character. I also like Amy like shes strong, pro-poor economic poverty as Jiren conviction. They were not ideal and the fate of the same, but they all found themselves the best destination.

In their view, the growth of their home is a place, but also a sacred place of refuge. To listen carefully to their mothers teachings, to use their dexterous hands intelligence of the brain invented one after another innovative at the same time beautify the soul of the game. The four sisters grew up is like the richest man in an interesting education poetry. With neither the author nor boring gorgeous language to show us great human family, friendship and love. It seems to me that in the eyes of four sisters, and they will always love and love of their life together is the most well-being of all things.

参考翻译

《小妇人》是一本带有自传性质的家庭小说，作者是美国的奥尔科特。

马奇家的女孩虽然家里贫寒， 但她们却对任何事都有积极乐观的态度。 小说强调了她们的个性与尊严，但有表现出她们的自我表现约束， 而独立自强有是这四个女孩的共同特点她们总是在不停的找出自己的缺点并努力改正。 这也是值得每个人学习的。

这本书看完好几天了，那感觉就像是一团说不清是什么的东西一直堵在心里，很想找人合自己探讨，很想让它澄清书里面的经典情节很多很多，那里面展示的很多，我不能一一的重复旧这样借着几个点，简单的说几句好了。

让我印象最深刻的场景是作者笔下的当时的那些建筑，那些奢华的象征权利的教堂，人们还不知道可以拥有自己的细想，以及为了自己的愿望可以做什么事情，一切都假借神圣的宗教，一切都假借神圣的教堂来展现，展现建筑家的审美观，也就是个人的才华，或者展示自己的能力，我想那时的人们，把人性深深地埋在意见神圣的宗教的外衣下面典型的任务就是副主教一一克洛德，从那许多的错误复杂的毫无章法的建筑群，我们不难看出，当时人们的内心是怎样的压抑，怎样狂躁，那些想雨后春笋一般从地下冒出来的教堂的尖顶，正是人们扭曲的灵魂在对着苍天做这无声的哀号。

教堂里面是那么的阴森恐怖，这让人联想到在宗教的遮拦写，当时社会是怎样的肮脏和败坏，真善美的宗教和利用宗教制造血腥事件，形成了强烈的感官刺激，通篇都是在这样的对照下进行的，让人的心理深刻的体会出迷茫困惑，和不安，如果有一把利剑，你会尽你自己的权利去刺破那蒙在社会上空的阴云是邪恶的，你对他充满了愤怒和鄙视。就像书里面的那些流浪汉们对待社会的疯狂和报复，于是你不能，以为如果你像刺痛那些邪恶，你就先要将代表这真善美的上帝打倒在地，那是多么残酷的事情啊!还有比人丧失本性更悲哀的么!

印象深刻的是这样的心任务，代表美丽善良的姑娘艾丝美拉达，她不仅有迷人的外貌更有一颗纯真善良的心理，从她对待那只山羊就下内个落魄的诗人，对于伤害过自己的卡其摩多，送上的水和怜惜，对待爱情的牺牲，等我们看到他是美丽的，他的身上心灵上没有污垢，她是没有被污垢的可是，这样的天使一样的姑娘，受到的是怎样的对待呢?流量，在最肮脏的环境里面生活，被玩弄，被抛弃，被诬陷最后牺牲。

我想这也就是世界名著的真正魅力所在，他让人看到的不是一个简单的故事，他深刻的揭示了人类内心深处的一些活动，无论放在什么社会，人的共性是始终存在的，让多少人的内心失去了平衡。

我想每一个人都会有一个属于自己的答案。

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

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

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

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

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

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

Everyone is the god of his own. If you have succumbed to yourself, then who can be your savior all through the world? ---Form The Shawshank Redemption

The story begins with the trial of a young banker called Andy, who victimized by circumstantial evidence and be put into the Shawshank prison. Ellis and many other prisoners had been in the prison for so many years that they had accustomed to this kind of life. Even they did not want to go out. It’s not only because they can’t, but also that they lived here for years without hope. You see, they lived just in the small prison living a boring life, it’s a gray world where nobody knows what their dream was, what their hope was.

However, as the old man said: Some birds arent meant to be caged, but most birds will choose to stand it. Though they tried too many times, they never finished it, so they gave up. Nonetheless, Andy tried. He has the smart brain, the never fading persistent, as well as the most important

thing----hope. With a small hammer to dig through the tunnel to drainage pipe, and then climb over the drainage pipe outside to the river, Andy succeed in escaping the constraint

The scene impressed me most is when Andy got out of jail, he extended his arms in front of him in the heavy rain as if he were welcoming the fresh air and the freedom. At that moment, I saw the confidence win the darkness, bright light dazzles the eyes in the dark blue sky. Under the light, I could feel my recreant heart being shivering as his voice said: “Remember, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things and no good thing ever dies!”

It’s obvious that hope is a good thing. Whatever difficulty it is, we can’t lose the hope. Hope is enduring. Why we study? Because of the hope. We don’t hope us to be the man who nobody knows, so we go ahead for the dream. That it is , hope is worthy to be kept on the way to realize our dreams.

每个人都是自己的上帝。如果你屈服于自己,那么谁能成为你的救世主整个世界?———肖申克的救赎

这个故事开始于一个名叫安迪的年轻银行家的审判,那些受害者通过间接证据和投入肖申克监狱。埃利斯和许多其他囚犯在监狱了这么多年,他们已经习惯了这种生活。即使他们不想出去。不仅因为他们不能,但也多年没有希望,他们住在这里。你看,他们就住在小监狱生活枯燥的生活,这是一个灰色的世界里,没有人知道自己的梦想是什么,什么是他们的希望。

然而,正如老人说:有些鸟儿是永远关不住的,不但是大多数鸟类会选择忍受。虽然他们尝试过太多次,他们没有完成这项工作,所以他们放弃了。尽管如此,安迪。他有聪明的大脑,永不褪色的持久性,以及最重要的

的事情——希望。用一把小锤子挖隧道排水管道,然后爬过外面的排水管,安迪成功地逃避约束

我印象最深的场景是当安迪出狱,他双臂伸展在他面前的大雨好像欢迎新鲜空气和自由。在那一刻,我看到了信心赢得了黑暗,明亮的灯光闪烁的眼睛暗蓝的天空。在光下,我能感觉到我的怯懦的心作为他的声音颤抖的说:“记住,希望是美好的,也许是件最好的东西,而且从没有一样好东西会消逝!”

很明显,希望是一件好事。无论什么困难,我们不能失去希望。希望是长久的。我们为什么学习?因为希望。我们不希望我们的人没有人知道,所以我们继续梦想。是,希望是值得继续去实现我们的梦想。

这本书看完好几天了，那感觉就像是有一团说不清是什么的东西一直堵在心里，很想找人和自己探讨，很想让它澄清。书里面的经典情节很多很多，那里面展示的很多，我不可以就这样不停的重复，就这样借着几个点，简单的说几句好了，

让我印象深刻的场景是作者笔下的当时的那些建筑，那些奢华的象征权力的教堂，人们还不知道可以拥有自己的思想，以及为了自己的愿望可以做什么事情，一切都假借神圣的宗教，一切都假借神圣的教堂来展现，展现建筑家的审美观，也就是个人的才华，或者展示自己的能力，我想那时的人们，把人性深深地埋在一件神圣的宗教的外衣下面，典型的人物就是副主教——克洛德。从那许多的错综复杂的毫无章法的建筑群，我们不难看出，当时人们的内心是怎样的压抑，怎样狂躁，那些像雨后春笋一般从地下冒出来的教堂的尖顶，正是人们扭曲的灵魂在对着苍天做这无声的哀号!

教堂里面是那么的阴森恐怖，这让人联想到在宗教的遮拦下，当时社会是怎样的肮脏和败坏，真善美的宗教和利用宗教制造血腥事件，形成了强烈的感官刺激。通篇都是在这样的对照下进行的，让人的心灵深刻的体会出迷茫，困惑，和不安，如果有一把利剑，你会尽你的全力去刺破那层蒙在社会上空的阴云，那阴云是邪恶的，你对它充满了愤怒和鄙视，就像书里面的那些流浪汉们对待社会的疯狂的报复。可是你不可以，因为如果你想刺痛那些邪恶，你就先要将代表着真善美的上帝打倒在地，那是多么残酷的事情啊!还有比人丧失本性更悲哀的`么!

印象深刻的是这样的几个人物，代表美丽善良的姑娘——爱斯梅拉达。她不仅有迷人的外貌，更有一颗纯真善良的心灵，从她对待那只山羊，救下那个落魄的诗人，对于伤害过自己的卡齐莫多，送上的水和怜悯，对待爱情的牺牲，等，我们看到她是美丽的，她的身上心灵上没有污垢，她是没有被污染的。可是，这样的天使一样的姑娘，受到的是怎么样的对待呢?流浪，在最肮脏的环境里面生活，被所谓的上流社会排斥和嘲讽，被玩弄，被抛弃，被诬陷，被威胁，最后，作了彻底的牺牲。

《三国演义》是中国古典四大名著之一，是中国第一部长篇章回体历史演义小说，全名为《三国志通俗演义》(又称《三国志演义》)，作者是元末明初的著名小说家罗贯中。以下是小编带来的三国演义英语读后感，希望对你有帮助。

Rolling the Yangtze river east a mill, the waves are gone all heroes. Exciting, the third time I open the classical literary classics of The Three Kingdoms.

The story is the main content of the wisdom and brave in turn to launch, but I think that wisdom is always better than brave. For example: in the west, KongMingYong KongChengJi scare the sima yi of one hundred and fifty thousand troops led. This example for infinite in number.

But in the story also has "wisdom not delimit stratagem, brave enemy, the improper doesnt take the pen, wu fixed gun". Like han room LiuChan, gaily all day, ignore the palace, and is willing to give the shu, finally had staged let one of sneer at things, ran. Who would have thought of a countrys rulers can make such a ShiYiSuYi things to come?

Foolhardy, the big enemy be current, the only desperate battle. Lyu3 bu4, YanLiang are typical example: if BaiMenLou obey the counselor in lyu3 bu4 idea, why should be hanged on the city gate cao? If YanLiang put in hebei things and liu bei guan yu clearly, where as for the chop down by guan yu is nothing?

If in the three countries on the strongest wage, a little too much. Cao cao is a unique way, sima yi is more YongBingRuShen. But both have their own weakness: cao cao suspicious, sima yi too dangerous. Besides shu, the will is various ge bright. His prodigious wit, skilled BingZhen, all let posterity alike. And like chicken, concubines Victoria, seo young pang tong accidental sugarcane and so on some characters, but I think all not equal to the bore is clear. Wu, a occupy sanjiang county of six nation, can calculate on a strategy, also is the week yu, young period of the week yu will read books, proficient in formation. After some hard work, and finally, when the very big paper, the President marines. But he is too too jealous, dead at all twenty-six.

From these characters and state we can see that the importance of ones character. Character relationship with success.

Each people all have own goal, as long as dependable walk good for success in the process of each section of the road, believe that success will not far. When we looked at others envy success, often ignored him on the road to success pay difficultly. Like bing xin said: the success of flower. People got only act she present mingyan! But when her yaren, soak the struggle leiquan, a sacrifice xueyu blood rain!

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.

《巴黎圣母院》乃是法国作家雨果的作品，此书描写了世纪，法国光怪陆离的巴黎生活，并透过这种描写，深刻地剖析了丰富复杂的人性世界，表达了雨果人道主义的思想。

本书塑造了美貌绝伦，纯真善良，能歌善舞的吉卜赛少女爱斯梅拉达。伴在她身边的一只小羊也聪明绝顶，并给予无限遐想，是美丽和自由的化身。身体虽有很多残疾，奇丑无比的敲钟人卡西莫多却拥有着一颗美丽纯洁，不掺一丝杂质的心灵，他守护珍宝似地守护着爱斯梅拉达，爱她甚至爱过了自己，但是在社会偏见与邪恶势力的面前，只得选择了殉葬的爱情。副教授弗罗洛为了想得到爱斯梅拉达，用自己至高无上的权利威逼爱斯梅拉达嫁给他。夏托佩尔弗比斯队长虽徒有华表，但是内心似一包烂瓤一般，他也极其恶劣的手段玩弄了，幼稚痴情的爱斯梅拉达。格朗吉沃这个苟且偷生的家伙为了生存可以抛弃一切。

人性是多样的，我们可不要做一个像弗比斯有着肮脏心灵的人，我们应该像卡西莫多一样，有着一颗纯美心灵，散发出耀眼的光芒。

Published in 1847, Wuthering Heights was not well received by the reading public, many of whom condemned it as sordid, vulgar, and unnatural--and author Emily Bronte went to her grave in 1848 believing that her only novel was a failure. It was not until 1850, when Wuthering Heights received a second printing with an introduction by Emilys sister Charlotte, that it attracted a wide readership. And from that point the reputation of the book has never looked back. Today it is widely recognized as one of the GREat novels of English literature.

Even so, Wuthering Heights continues to divide readers. It is not a pretty love story; rather, it is swirling tale of largely unlikeable people caught up in obsessive love that turns to dark madness. It is cruel, violent, dark and brooding, and many people find it extremely unpleasant. And yet--it possesses a grandeur of language and design, a sense of tremendous pity and GREat loss that sets it apart from virtually every other novel written.

The novel is told in the form of an extended FLASHback. After a visit to his strange landlord, a newcomer to the area desires to know the history of the family--which he receives from Nelly Deans, a servant who introduces us to the Earnshaw family who once resided in the house known as Wuthering Heights. It was once a cheerful place, but Old Earnshaw adopted a "Gipsy" child who he named Heathcliff. And Catherine, daughter of the house, found in him the perfect companion: wild, rude, and as proud and cruel as she. But although Catherine loves him, even recognizes him as her soulmate, she cannot lower herself to marry so far below her social station. She instead marries another, and in so doing sets in motion an obsession that will destroy them all.

Wuthering Heights is a bit difficult to "get into;" the opening chapters are so dark in their portrait of the end result of this obsessive love that they are somewhat off-putting. But they feed into the flow of the work in a remarkable way, setting the stage for one of the most remarkable structures in all of literature, a story that circles upon itself in a series of repetitions as it plays out across two generations. Catherine and Heathcliff are equally remarkable, both vicious and cruel, and yet never able to shed their impossible love no matter how brutally one may wound the other.

As the novel coils further into alcoholism, seduction, and one of the most elaborately imagined plans of revenge it gathers into a ghostly tone: Heathcliff, driven to madness by a woman who is not there but who seems reflected in every part of his world--dragging her corpse from the grave, hearing her calling to him from the moors, escalating his brutality not for the sake of brutality but so that her memory will never fade, so that she may never leave his mind until death itself. Yes, this is madness, insanity, and there is no peace this side of the grave or even beyond.

It is a stunning novel, frightening, inexorable, unsettling, filled with unbridled passion that makes one cringe. Even if you do not like it, you should read it at least once--and those who do like it will return to it again and again.

人们都渴望美，美对于所有人来说都是一笔天生的财富。随着生活水平的提高，人们追求美的方式也越来越难理解：理个光头或留长发，这是“帅”;把新的衣服镂得全是洞，这是“酷”;把头发染的稀奇古怪，这是“时髦”。殊不知，他们已将美扭曲。然而雨果的《巴黎圣母院》却给人以心灵的震撼。

女主人公艾斯米拉达拥有着令无数女孩羡慕的美貌与才艺，她的一个笑容似乎可以让整个巴黎颤动，一支舞便迷住多少人的心，从圣母院的主教，到英俊潇洒的菲比斯，再到小丑卡西莫多，这个吉普赛的妙龄少女，从头到脚似乎都经过上帝精心的雕琢，她是女人中的杰作。是一朵正在盛开的花。她虽然美的令人窒息，但是无数又读过《巴黎圣母院》的朋友或许会把注意力集中在另一个人身上——卡西莫多。

与传统的读物相比，雨果打破了白雪公主配白马王子的俗套，卡西莫多是匹真正的黑马。他天生畸形，相貌奇丑，再加上是个聋子，似乎和美沾不上一点边。然而雨果似乎更倾爱他。因为在雨果的笔下，卡西莫多爱上了艾斯米拉达。

和其他的爱情不同，卡西莫多的爱是无声的，却是及时的。他在公主最失意，最窘迫的时刻救了她，并默默地关心她。

读完这本书，人们不禁会问：什么是美，什么又是丑呢?在雨果的笔下，我们可以找到答案：丑可以追求美，美却不能避免丑!
