1000《朝花夕拾》读后感小学作文400字
全文共 465 字
+ 加入清单说实在的,《朝花夕拾》这本书,有点难读,其一,语言令人难懂。如果不静下心来看的话,是一点儿也看不懂。
朝花夕拾这名字非常美,带有诗意。但是书中文章可是非常的令人难以读懂。
书中有些文章好像是一个人蒙了纱一样,看不清面目。
书中最令我难忘的是“藤野先生”这一篇。鲁迅以前在日本学医,藤野先生是鲁迅先生的老师。藤野先生全名藤野严九郎。文中写道,中国人要被日军枪毙的情景。围观的中国人都喊起来:“万岁!”这声万岁不知道他们是怎么喊出来的。他们竟然不知道耻辱!鲁迅写道,这声欢呼是每一次枪毙都有的,但是在他听来,却特别刺耳。
文中还写道,“中国是弱国,所以中国人当然是低能儿,分数在六十分以上的便不是自己的能力了……”此话让人非常愤怒。想到以前的中国是出于底层,我就感到即悲伤,又气愤!
这本书写了鲁迅那个年代所发生的一些有趣、悲伤、气愤的一些事。非常的真实。
文中有些外国语言,我想,因该是一些专业术语喝一些人的名字。
在书的导读部分最后一句写道:作品的语言清新、朴实,亲切感人,是现代回忆散文的典范之作!
没错,这本作品的确是现代回忆散文的典范之作!

篇1:英语作文_《汤姆叔叔小屋》的读后感
全文共 2216 字
+ 加入清单Its simple plot relates the misfortunes of the loyal Christian slave, Tom, who, deprived of familial love and affection and destined for the harsh life of plantation slavery, doesn’t rebel or curse God, but philosophically accepts his cruel fate. He could leap overboard Cold River to save the drowning daughter of a wealthy white passenger who gratefully rewards the brave Negro by buying him.
Tom seems destined, now, to live out his life in a pleasant New Orleans mansion, spending his days reading Bible aloud and singing religious hymns with the angelic little Eva. But the child dies of tuberculosis, having first elicited a promise from her father to free the loyal Tom. The father is killed , however, in a brawl before he can fulfill his pledge and his widow is forced to sell Tom, who becomes the property of the heartless Simon Legree. He soon learns how really harsh the life of plantation can be, but he remains true to his religious training, elated by his pious acceptance of God’s will. Harassed by the evil Legree ,Tom displays his Christian charity by refusing to flog another slave .Simon Legree may not own Tom’s soul ,but he can do as he chooses with the body, and he orders two of his slaves, Sambo and Quimba, to whip the unresisting Tom, whose only responses to the merciless beating is a plea to stop in order that Legree might save his own soul.
On his deathbed, Tom charitably forgives the harsh Legree. Ironically, he lives long enough to witness the arrival of his former master’s son, come to redeem the family pledge by buying him back and granting his freedom.
The theme of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, for its all apparent simplicity, is representative of much of 19th century American fiction of the good man opposed by evil personified under the circumstance of slavery.
What strikes me is Tom’s loyalty to his religious belief. All of us has our own belief , it plays a most important part in our life, it supports us whenever we are caught in rough conditions ,it helps us get out of the dark to see the sunrise, it teach us how to adapt ourselves to different circumstances.
Life is full of ups and downs; we should hold our belief to fight against them to realize our goals!
篇2:《傅雷家书》读后感
全文共 1003 字
+ 加入清单在每个人的一生中,父母的某些所做所为,身为孩子的我们不懂,觉得很困惑。
《傅雷家书》这本书,让我真切地感受到了,父母在背后对我们的爱。
傅雷是一个典型的好爸爸的例子。他博学,睿智。是孩子们的好老师,好父亲。
有一次处“倘若你情绪不好,也老老实实和我谈谈,我可以安慰安慰你,代你解决一些或大或小的烦恼。”这句话完全是商量的语气。但在那个年代下,封建迷信思想还是很严重。可见有学问的人就是不一样,思想都比较先进。这样的父亲,是当时每个孩子都渴望的。
在那时,父亲就像是一座高耸的山,只可远望,不可攀爬。每个孩子都对自己的父亲敬而远之,生怕一不小心惹怒了父亲,会被打。
其实,挺羡慕傅聪,傅敏有这样的父母。温柔,体贴,善解人意。能理解他们,而且表达这么明确。家人之间本不需要猜忌。我觉得这才是真正的亲人。
在我们的眼中,父母可能不像这样。但他们对我们的爱,就如傅雷夫妇对他们孩子们的爱。可能没这么坦诚,可能没这么直白,可能没这么显而易见。但我相信,只要我们用心去感受,就能发现他们对我们的爱。
有时,我们可能会怨他们这么啰嗦,可能会怨他们这么落后,可能会怨他们这么不理解我们等。但是,反过来想一想,我们理解过他们吗?比他们先进到哪里去?啰嗦难道不好吗?
我们只看到了他们不好的一面,但有去感受他们的另一面吗?
我们读过书,看过故事。难道你没有看过其中某些主旨是“每件事物都有两面性”吗?所以,当你怨他们的时候,有去想过为什么这样吗?
有些人会觉得,这很正常啊!谁没看过自己父母不爽的。我可以告诉你,是有,而且几乎每个人都有。但,我也要告诉你,不爽归不爽,但千万不要埋怨他们,不要恨他们,哪怕他们怎么对待你,哪怕他们是错的。可以讨厌,可以不理解,但不要恨。他们毕竟是你的父母,就算不是亲生的,他们也养了你,让你受教育了。这是要感恩的。
父母爱你。但有时候过分的爱,会变质。一种变成溺爱,宠你宠出新高度;另一种则是要求,不断的要求,使你成为完美。
溺爱,我们都知道。溺爱会使人自视极高。
要求,有两种可能。
一是使你成为完美的人,活得潇洒,但内心却容易妒忌。二是放弃自己,严重会衍生出其他的人格,而这些人格是被逼出来的。因为在要求的过程中,你完成不了,而自己又没自信,但又不能让他们失望,于是慢慢的自己变了。有一天,受不了的话,你原来的那个人格就会死亡。取之而代的是你分裂出来的人格。
所以,爱,也是门技术活,需要技巧,需要情商,需要观察与理解。
篇3:《三国演义》读后感小学优秀作文400字
全文共 432 字
+ 加入清单《三国演义》是我最喜欢的一本书,特别是对照苏轼在《赤壁怀古》中写的“大江东去,浪淘尽,千古风流人物。”再回头重看关于诸葛亮、曹操、关羽等的描写,更是觉得大有看头,越看越有味道,我真是爱不释手。
我最喜欢的章节是赤壁大战中的草船借箭。刘备和周瑜那边缺箭,就请诸葛亮来帮忙。诸葛亮对天文地理,无所不精。他胸有成竹,大大方方地立下了军令状。要了二十艘快船,船的四边都扎满了稻草人,向着曹军的北岸进发。曹军的一位大将军看到长江上雾气弥漫,朦朦胧胧中开来了一列战船,又战鼓阵阵,杀声震天,以为是孙刘联军趁雾偷袭,连忙大叫:“放箭!”诸葛亮立刻让军士把船横过来,一字排开。于是几千几万支箭纷纷扬扬地扎进了稻草人中。诸葛亮和鲁肃却在船舱里喝酒偷着乐。等右边稻草人扎满了,又掉转船头,让曹军射箭扎左边的稻草人。全都装满了,诸葛亮和鲁肃哈哈大笑,扬长而去。
这个故事说明诸葛亮足智多谋,深谙天文气象。我长大一定要像诸葛亮那么能干。可是当我读到诸葛亮死了时,眼泪都要出来了,久久不能平静。

篇5:国演义读后感作文500字
全文共 588 字
+ 加入清单我利用这两天考完试的时间,来看完四大名著之一——《三国演义》。看完后,真是受益匪浅啊!
《三国演义》描写了从东汉灵帝到西普武帝约一百年间发生的事件,中间着重描述历时半个世纪的魏、蜀、吴三国的兴衰过程,以三个统治集团互相间的斗争为主要描写内容,揭露了封建统治者的残暴罪行,寄托了人民渴求政治清明、社会安定的愿望,表现了群众所理想的重义守信、平等互助的人与人的关系。
在吴、魏、蜀三国,我最喜欢的是蜀国,因为蜀国的君主刘备和他那五虎上将以及孔明都很重情义。他们都各有各的长处,比如:刘备宅心仁厚,惜贤爱士,“吾宁死,不为不仁不义之事”;关羽义重如山,武勇刚强……他们这些优点也可以让我从中认识了不少道理,特别是那关羽的“忠义”使我明白了什么比金钱还重……
有一次,关羽被曹操迫降,关羽无赖之下向曹操提出了三个条件,其中一个就是知道刘备的去向就立刻走。后来,关羽知道了刘备正在袁绍的营帐中,就立刻向袁绍的营去。走的时候却忘向曹操领取通行令,所以到了东岭关,守将要查看通行令的时候,只好把他杀了。就这样,关羽过五关 杀六将,终于杀到了袁绍的营了,找到刘备大哥。
看,关羽就怕耽误了行程,所以才冒着生命危险闯的,这所做的一切,不都是为了回到他的结拜大哥——刘备身边。这一切的一切,简直比亲兄弟还要亲……我顿开矛塞,原来比金钱还要重的东西是那忠义啊!
《三国演义》将永远陪伴着我踏向茫茫的人生之旅。

+ 加入清单我读过很多的寓言故事,比如:守株待兔、农夫的故事、惊弓之鸟、扁鹊治病……但印象最深刻的还是三年级时学过的一篇课文——《拔苗助长》
《拔苗助长》是一篇寓言故事,它讲述了一个男子觉得自己家里的禾苗长得太慢了,于是就把禾苗往上拔。男子认为这样能帮助禾苗生长,就暗暗自喜。可第二天,他一去田地,发现禾苗全部枯萎了。
在我的生活中,也有这样的事情发生。我们同学听说花儿都喜欢阳光和水,于是每天都放在阳光底下暴晒,浇两大瓶水,没过几天,花儿就死了。这就是急躁,没有思考有没有道理就做事的后果。
“心急吃不了热豆腐”,只有认真思考得人,做事才有好结果、好收获。读了《拔苗助长》,我认为做任何事情都不要着急,而且要经过认真地思考,这样做有没有道理,做事才可以成功。

篇11:《人间失格》读后感800字

+ 加入清单【最精彩的悲剧】
把每个明天当做世界末日,从现在起迈出第一步——题记。
初次听闻这本书,是在与朋友的一次闲聊之中,随后对这本书产生了浓浓的兴趣,边去书店买来了这本书,抱着极大的好奇心,翻开了这本书的第一页,细细品味……
“他曾在夏天在单件和服中穿上毛衣,只为搞笑;也行因为怕父亲扫兴而在半夜潜入客厅在父亲的本子上写上‘狮子’二字,只为不让父亲因自己而扫兴……”这一切的最终目的不过是为掩盖自己的忧郁和敏感,伪装成纯真无邪的乐天派,塑造成一个滑稽逗乐的怪人。他对这个世界太过畏惧,认为世人比狮子、鳄鱼甚至恐龙都要可怕。他曾说过“面对世人,我总是怕到发抖”他太过敏感,太过小心翼翼,以至于最后被送进了疯人院。面对世人,他总是怕到发抖,而面对这个世界,他又何尝不是呢。
也许有人会认为太宰治不过是因五次自杀而出名的作家而已,或认为他的作品中传递的是使人愈来愈消极的负能量,可当你真正去品味他的作品时,才会发觉他以细腻的笔触写出了他的一生,一个使自己绝望的人生。当自己读过他的三五本书后才发现他的作品并不是以“罪”“恶”“罚”为主题创作,反而是以“爱”与“善”为主题创作。他写每本书的目的都不是为让读者致郁自杀,而是使读者反省其身、自我救赎,不落到与自己相同的下场。
“不要抗拒改变,这是这个世界上唯一不变的事情,就是所有的事情都在反复的变,反复的过程很容易让人变得低落和沮丧,然而你再低落和沮丧,人生还是会被各种各样的事情的改变所包围着,就像是站在一台你没办法控制的跑步机上,时间、速度都不是你所能控制的,那我就选择跑的更从容一点,尽我所能的在这个被动的人生里争取一些主动,所以我很讨厌‘抗拒’这个词,很消极、很脆弱、很被动,如果我不能改变世界,好歹让我改变自己,遵从自己的选择。”在我眼中,《人间失格》或许就是在阐述这样一个道理。
当世人知道书中的叶藏被送入疯人院时,书外太宰治的生命也止于了他的第五次自杀,我想这或许便是最精彩的悲剧。
篇12:国演义读后感作文500字
全文共 828 字
+ 加入清单真好!暑假里,我有大把时间来读好书了。
首先读《三国演义》。书中描写了一些气势磅礴的战争场景,栩栩如生的人物形象,真是令我回味无穷,爱不释手。最是刻入脑海的人物当属关羽关云长了,他是一位纯爷们,成了我的偶像。
我崇拜他威武强壮的形象。关羽,身长九尺,鬓长二尺,面如重枣,唇若涂脂,丹凤眼,卧蚕眉。手持青龙偃月刀,足跨赤兔千里马。好一个相貌堂堂,威风凛凛的“美髯公”!
现在社会,年轻一代人的审美观有些特别,总推崇面若桃花,眼似葡萄,身如拂柳的“仙气”形象,男生也要施粉绣眉,看起来很娘,缺少男子汉应有的阳刚之气。了解了关羽后,我端正了我的审美观,觉得男生就应该有纯爷们的范。身为男生,就应该锻炼好强壮的身体,能吃苦耐劳,不撒娇取宠,有担当。
我崇拜他武艺高强。温酒斩华雄,斩颜良,诛文丑,过五关,斩六将,大敌当前无所畏惧。啧啧,不愧号称“武圣”啊!
正所谓“没有精钢钻,不揽瓷器活”,关羽之所以如此从容有信心战胜强敌,都是因为他平日里苦心练习武艺,善于学习兵法。我们小学生现在正处在学习阶段,吃够学习的苦才能获得智慧和技能,将来才有机会崭露头角,兼济天下。
我最崇拜的是他多么地忠义。当他被曹操所俘获,勉强答应留下,心里想的却是大哥,当有了大哥的消息,曹操怎么也留不住他。他过五关,斩六将,追随刘备而去。
生而为人,忠字当头。我们要有忠于国家,忠于家庭的信念。想到这,我不免想起国士钟南山,二十年前非典肆虐他六十多岁一马当先,救人民于死神之手;如今新冠猖獗他八十多岁,毅然逆行以身筑起抵挡在死神与人民之间的高墙。还有疫情中、洪水中奋不顾身为了别人拼命的人,他们都是忠义当先的可敬可爱之人。
我还崇拜他有着钢铁的意志。当他中了箭毒时,请华佗刮骨疗伤。他不绑手,不蒙眼,华佗用刀割开皮肉,将骨上箭毒刮去。血呼呼往下流,而他却仍与马良谈笑风生的下棋。这是怎样的铁打的身躯钢铁的意志呀!真爷们!
关羽,就是这样一个武艺高强、义薄云天、有万夫不当之勇、顶天立地的纯爷们。他是我的偶像!

篇14:老人与海英语读后感
全文共 9113 字
+ 加入清单When I was a middle school student, I’ve finished this book in Chinese.But when I read it in English,I really gain something new both in the way of expression and the spirit it shows to us.May be different ages to read the same book we will learn different things from it.At least, for my part, that is true.
Firstly,I would like to review some information about this book.Such as the background,major characters and the topic of it.
The Old Man and the Sea is a story by Ernest Hemingway, written in Cuba in 1951 and published in 1952. It was the last major work of fiction to be produced by Hemingway and published in his lifetime. One of his most famous works, it centers upon Santiago, an aging Cuban fisherman who struggles with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream.
The Old Man and the Sea served to reinvigorate Hemingways literary reputation and prompted a reexamination of his entire body of work. The novella was initially received with much popularity; it restored many readers confidence in Hemingways capability as an author. Its publisher, Scribners, on an early dust jacket, called the novella a "new classic," and many critics favorably compared it with such works as William Faulkners "The Bear" and Herman Melvilles Moby-Dick.
This book gives me a deep impression especially the description about the man’s braveness and persistence.
In this book, in order to suggest the profundity of the old man’s sacrifice and the glory that derives from it, Hemingway purposefully likens Santiago to Christ, who, according to Christian theology, gave his life for the greater glory of humankind. Crucifixion imagery is the most noticeable way in which Hemingway creates the symbolic parallel between Santiago and Christ. When Santiago’s palms are first cut by his fishing line, the reader cannot help but think of Christ suffering his stigmata. Later, when the sharks arrive, Hemingway portrays the old man as a crucified martyr, saying that he makes a noise similar to that of a man having nails driven through his hands. Furthermore, the image of the old man struggling up the hill with his mast across his shoulders recalls Christ’s march toward Calvary. Even the position in which Santiago collapses on his bed—face down with his arms out straight and the palms of his hands up—brings to mind the image of Christ suffering on the cross. Hemingway employs these images in the final pages of the novella in order to link Santiago to Christ, who exemplified transcendence by turning loss into gain, defeat into triumph, and even death into renewed life.
The major characters in this book are also vivid and lively.
Santiago?,the old man of the novella’s title, Santiago is a Cuban fisherman who has had an extended run of bad luck. Despite his expertise, he has been unable to catch a fish for eighty-four days. He is humble, yet exhibits a justified pride in his abilities. His knowledge of the sea and its creatures, and of his craft, is unparalleled and helps him preserve a sense of hope regardless of circumstance.
The marlin?,Santiago hooks the marlin, which we learn at the end of the novella measures eighteen feet, on the first afternoon of his fishing expedition. Manolin?,a boy presumably in his adolescence, Manolin is Santiago’s apprentice and devoted attendant. The old man first took him out on a boat when he was merely five years old. Due to Santiago’s recent bad luck, Manolin’s parents have forced the boy to go out on a different fishing boat. Manolin, however, still cares deeply for the old man, to whom he continues to look as a mentor.
Joe DiMaggio, although DiMaggio never appears in the novel, he plays a significant role nonetheless. Santiago worships him as a model of strength and commitment, and his thoughts turn toward DiMaggio whenever he needs to reassure himself of his own strength. Perico ?,Perico, the reader assumes, owns the bodega in Santiago’s village. He never appears in the novel, but he serves an important role in the fisherman’s life by providing him with newspapers that report the baseball scores. This act establishes him as a kind man who helps the aging Santiago.
Martin,like Perico, Martin, a café owner in Santiago’s village, does not appear in the story. The reader learns of him through Manolin, who often goes to Martin for Santiago’s supper. As the old man says, Martin is a man of frequent kindness who deserves to be repaid.
From the very first paragraph, Santiago is characterized as someone struggling against defeat. He has gone eighty-four days without catching a fish—he will soon pass his own record of eighty-seven days. Almost as a reminder of Santiago’s struggle, the sail of his skiff resembles “the flag of permanent defeat.” But the old man refuses defeat at every turn: he resolves to sail out beyond the other fishermen to where the biggest fish promise to be. He lands the marlin, tying his record of eighty-seven days after a brutal three-day fight, and he continues to ward off sharks from stealing his prey, even though he knows the battle is useless.
Because Santiago is pitted against the creatures of the sea, some readers choose to view the tale as a chronicle of man’s battle against the natural world, but the novella is, more accurately, the story of man’s place within nature. Both Santiago and the marlin display qualities of pride, honor, and bravery, and both are subject to the same eternal law: they must kill or be killed. As Santiago reflects when he watches the weary warbler fly toward shore, where it will inevitably meet the hawk, the world is filled with predators, and no living thing can escape the inevitable struggle that will lead to its death. Santiago lives according to his own observation: “man is not made for defeat . . . [a] man can be destroyed but not defeated.” In Hemingway’s portrait of the world, death is inevitable, but the best men (and animals) will nonetheless refuse to give in to its power. Accordingly, man and fish will struggle to the death, just as hungry sharks will lay waste to an old man’s trophy catch.
The novel suggests that it is possible to transcend this natural law. In fact, the very inevitability of destruction creates the terms that allow a worthy man or beast to transcend it. It is precisely through the effort to battle the inevitable that a man can prove himself. Indeed, a man can prove this determination over and over through the worthiness of the opponents he chooses to face. Santiago finds the marlin worthy of a fight, just as he once found “the great negro of Cienfuegos” worthy. HSantiago, though destroyed at the end of the novella, is never defeated. Instead, he emerges as a hero. Santiago’s struggle does not enable him to change man’s place in the world. Rather, it enables him to meet his most dignified destiny.
While it is certainly true that Santiago’s eighty-four-day run of bad luck is an affront to his pride as a masterful fisherman, and that his attempt to bear out his skills by sailing far into the gulf waters leads to disaster, Hemingway does not condemn his protagonist for being full of pride. On the contrary, Santiago stands as proof that pride motivates men to greatness. Because the old man acknowledges that he killed the mighty marlin largely out of pride, and because his capture of the marlin leads in turn to his heroic transcendence of defeat, pride becomes the source of Santiago’s greatest strength. Without a ferocious sense of pride, that battle would never have been fought, or more likely, it would have been abandoned before the end.
Santiago’s pride also motivates his desire to transcend the destructive forces of nature. Throughout the novel, no matter how baleful his circumstances become, the old man exhibits an unflagging determination to catch the marlin and bring it to shore. When the first shark arrives, Santiago’s resolve is mentioned twice in the space of just a few paragraphs. Even if the old man had returned with the marlin intact, his moment of glory, like the marlin’s meat, would have been short-lived. The glory and honor Santiago accrues comes not from his battle itself but from his pride and determination to fight.
Santiago dreams his pleasant dream of the lions at play on the beaches of Africa three times. The first time is the night before he departs on his three-day fishing expedition, the second occurs when he sleeps on the boat for a few hours in the middle of his struggle with the marlin, and the third takes place at the very end of the book. In fact, the sober promise of the triumph and regeneration with which the novella closes is supported by the final image of the lions. Because Santiago associates the lions with his youth, the dream suggests the circular nature of life. Additionally, because Santiago imagines the lions, fierce predators, playing, his dream suggests a harmony between the opposing forces—life and death, love and hate, destruction and regeneration—of nature.
This book gives me courage of conquering all kinds of difficulties .And I have the belief that the most beautiful thing is the process that we make our best to achieve our dream,and never say give up .

全文共 5283 字
+ 加入清单Abstract: This film Shawshank Redemption describes a man called Andy Dufresne was sent to the prison for he murdered his wife but in fact he was innocent. Then he started fighting against with the wicked prison life. Though he suffered many unfair treatments and ordeals, he never gives up himself. Due to his intelligence and perseverance, he spend 20 years successfully escape from the prison as a redemption. He teaches me that never lose hope.
Keywords: hope; redemption; freedom; dream
The story took place in 1940. A man who is a banker called Andy Dufresne, was sent into the Shawshank prison, for he murderer his wife and her lover in bed. However, he was innocent as he said. The new days in the prison were hard to live. It’s violent, heartless and cruel. Nevertheless, A month later, Andy began to make friends with other prisoners. And one of them called Red, who could get anything what he wanted. Andy bought a mallet from him and started his plan to escape. During this time, he did many things: expanding the library, caving stones, helping the corrupt warden to get money or bribe, etc. Then a young prisoner’s coming break his quiet life in jail. But the warden killed the young prisoner the only man that knew Andy was innocent. Then he knew the prison he could not stay any more. It took him 20 years to tunnel secretly and he successfully escaped from the prison. When he got free, Andy sent the evident which could prove the warden corruption, briber and murdering to the policy agency. Before that, Andy had told his best friend Red that his dream---Zihuatanejo, a warm place without memory. After escaping, Andy lived a free life in another identity and made the prison governor arrested. Several years later, Red was approved to leave. for the promise to Andy. Finally, in Zihuyatanejo, they met.
The cruel prison life terrified me and the friendship moved me. The story goes to a happy ending---redemption. This film impressed me a lot. A sentence was said in the film: ’Some birds aren"t meant to be caged, but most birds will choose to stand it.’
In this film, as we can see, the Shawshank Prison, which enjails lots of people. They have been in the prison form many years ,so they won’t go abroad. Because they won’t and also they can’t. They lived here for years without hope, and they lived just in the small prison, where nobody knows what is their dream and what’s their hope. As I remember, a old man Brooks was released after he had been in the jail for 50 years. But he found that the world became completely different from the world he imagined. For example, he seldom see cars before. He felt very strange and helpless to the outside world He can hardly adapt to the new developed world. He would rather stay in the prison. So unfortunately he chose to commit suicide.
However, on the contrary, Andy said a converse sentence:’ Some birds aren"t meant to be caged, that"s all. Their feathers are just too bright’ He long for the freedom and strive for it! What I remember very clearly is someone said that These walls are kind of funny things like that. First, you hate them, then you get used to them. Enough time passed, get so you depend on them. That is institutionalizing. But Andy hadn’t been affected. He insisted on his faith of freedom. He dared to pursue his deserved freedom! That’s the first point I appreciate.
What’s more, another thing I think is friendship. Of course, Andy’s perseverance and endeavor is the main reason that he succeed in escaping. But it can’t be denying that friendship is also a important reason. Without the friends’ help in the prison, especially red’s, He can’t break the prison, too. Even in the jail which is the most evil place that Andy could make it a significance place. He had transformed a storage room smelling of turpentine into the best prison library in New England. Then the prisoners read the books and got knowledge from it. Andy also helped them to pass the high school equivalency. The glitters of him lighted others’ life. That helps him built many sincere friendships in the prison. He just too bright that didn’t belong to the prison .Then he escape and gained the freedom.
Furthermore, the patience, courage and b willpower are the keys to escape. 20 years, not a short ordeal time, but he endured. He made his plan day by day, week by week and year by year. He never gives up. he took nearly twenty years to dip a tunnel with a little rock hammer which Red said it would take a man 600 years to tunnel under the wall with one of these to fight for his free .And he did it finally. Please imagine, crossing the tunnel he dup, he still should crawled through five hundred yards of shit-smelling foulness. That is the length of five football fields.
Then is the last but not least, I think. He has the bright brain ,the never fading persistent, and the most important thing----hope. Just as Andy said to Red: Hope is a good thing, may be the best of things. In this film, Andy show us that how good thing the hope is. Yes , hope is a good thing. Whatever it is, it can’t lock the hope. We all have dream. We all have hope. We all have it and please never give up, like Andy.
This film, Shawshank Redemption, teaches me a lot. It deserves to be one of the most overwhelming films in the Hollywood.

+ 加入清单今天中午我借了一本书,书名为《伊索寓言》,内容是这样的:
有一只公路上的青蛙与一只住在河边的青蛙是好朋友,一天,河边的青蛙邀请公路上的青蛙去它家,公路上的青蛙高兴的答应了,它来到河边,在河里自由自在的畅游嬉戏着,河边的青蛙问:“你喜不喜欢这儿?”“喜欢。”公路上的青蛙回答。“那你就搬来住吧!”河边的青蛙说。但公路上的青蛙的一句话十分的出人意料,他说:“不!我以习惯了公路上的生活,要我搬过来我会不适应的,再说我也懒得搬,多累呀!”公路上的青蛙回去没几天,就被那突如其来的大货车给压扁了。
这个故事告诉我们做任何事都不能因为自己的坏习惯而去搬,就像故事中的公路上的青蛙因为习惯公路上的生活,又不愿改正,最后得到的下场就是结束了自己的一生,习惯是可以改变,只要你愿意,那些生活中的陋习便可以改变成好的习惯,否则就会像那只懒惰的青蛙,毁掉自己的一生。

+ 加入清单在《三国演义》中,我最喜欢足智多谋的诸葛亮,草船借箭是他的壮举之一,令我挥之不去。一次,阴险狡诈的曹操派兵攻打东吴,用大船与他们交战,恰巧大雾弥漫。刘备的大军正缺箭,不过诸葛亮的机智帮了刘备的大忙。他让士兵们扎大量的稻草人安在船上,把船放到水中,每只船上点了几根火把,人站在船舱中。刚好大雾朦胧,曹军看不清,把箭全射到稻草人的身上。再把箭集中起来就可以用了。几天后,这些箭都被用来攻击曹军了。
真是大快人心。
篇20:典范英语读后感

+ 加入清单《山丘上的约会》这个故事中最奇妙的部分,在于两们“笔友”彼此间从未见过面,单单只靠书信文字所产生的美好想象来塑造彼此的形象,而且在无形中不断地增强彼此的美好印象。相信很多人都有这样的经验:只听到某人或某篇文章的形容,就对没见过的人、事、物产生好奇,进而想象,总是越想越美好。
《山丘上的约会》故事最精彩的部分在于两个素未谋面的人终于决定要见面了,让人紧张心跳的也正是这一刻,两人都从对方最高的期望出发,结局如何呢?作者采用了卡通化的造型,夸张地强化了故事中两个主角的差异,不论在身高或体态上都不同。很戏剧化的是,正当玲玲抬头猛往高处寻找将会从天而降的偶像时,男主角瓜瓜也正奋力地跳上山丘去赴约呢!作者运用书本竖立时的直式版面,营造出男女主角见面时的“震憾”画面,令人拍案叫绝!故事中的主角虽然都是田墅里常见的动物,但两者的外形、习性截然不同,所以见面的过程充满了曲折、趣味。孩子在阅读时因为是旁观者,一定会觉得他们好笑,从而在轻松的气氛中理解故事的发展进程。
哇!会面的结果真是令人有些失望,书信中的印象明明不是这样的埃当满怀期盼,终于可以一睹真面目时,才发现事实和想象差了一大截。这是一个有趣又常会发生的事情。其实呢,“人生不如意事十常八九”,生活中经常会有许多的遗憾和委屈。正因为如此我们常常很努力地去避免这样的事情发生,让一切都如意顺心。结果期望越高往往失望越大,以至迷失了对事物本质的认识,我们就越来越不快乐了。试问朋友的真正意义是什么?不就是无邪的友谊分享吗,至于表面的东西也就不值得计较了。
因为人生很少能够真正地心想事成,所以我们会寄望于故事最后的美好结局,至少希望它是正面的、光明的。笔者很欣赏本书的结局。当玲玲和瓜瓜确信彼此的真正友谊存在时,决定继续山丘上的约会,再为彼此美好的友谊努力下去。真好,友谊可以不用猜疑和负担,只要彼此接纳和分享,或许这正是现代人该好好想想的课题。
