《傲慢与偏见》读后感1000字

+ 加入清单

傲慢与偏见》是英国著名女作家简·奥斯丁的代表作,这部作品以日常生活为素材,一反当时社会上流行的感伤小说的内容和矫揉造作的写作方法,作品描写傲慢的单身青年达西与偏见的二小姐伊丽莎白、富裕的单身贵族,彬格莱与贤淑的大小姐吉英之间的感情纠葛。其实这本书,在初一时已经接触过了,但当时对于剧情的繁杂很没有耐心,看了几章就没有了兴致,便一直搁在一旁,直至今日才重新拾起。不过再看开头几章时还是觉得很无趣,到后来明白才这里是在为以后的情景埋伏笔。一眨眼,三十几章已经过去了,人物的性格也很明显地被作者刻画出来了。

这本书中似乎只有两种人:聪明的和愚蠢的,没有绝对的好坏之分,骗子韦翰也许除外。他利用了自己巧妙的奉承能力以及一付“讨人喜欢”的仪表,迷住了伊丽莎白,不停地为自己洗刷冤情,中伤达西。可笑他的话里充满破绽,而聪明过人的伊丽莎白虽能与彬格来小姐辩驳,与咖苔琳夫人顶撞,却还是被韦翰牵着鼻子走。说实话,我并不认为伊丽莎白被骗说明他是一个”愚人”。人,总是先入为主,达西先生傲慢、无礼的样子早已进入伊丽莎白的头脑,还怎么对他产生好感?对于旁人的点评又怎能轻易的置若罔闻?对达西产生偏见是很正常的。我说的旁人自然就是指相貌堂堂的韦翰了。不可否认,韦翰长着一张英俊的脸,表面上也装得非常”绅士”。虽有”人不可貌相”、”知人知面不知心”之说可就连我这个活在二十一世纪,以旁观者的身份看这个故事,仍然对韦翰产生好感,又岂能怨伊丽莎白这一个生活在过去时代的姑娘?合上这本书,仔细地品味一番,方才发现,整部小说,之所以吸引人,完全是因为它轻松幽默的格调。伊丽莎白的嘲笑讽刺,正将那些自视绅士、淑女的贵族的本来面目暴露无疑。而伊丽莎白的父亲班纳特先生竟然以嘲笑太太、女儿为家庭快乐,幸哉?不幸哉?

文中的所谓「傲慢」就是指出身富贵、教养颇高、眼光锐利的青年达西的个性弱点;而所谓「偏见」是指出身中产阶级、教养颇好、机智聪明的小姐-伊丽莎白的精神弱点。一个眼光锐利,一个机智聪明,都属人中杰,但却都难免人性的弱点的纠缠。他们在一次的家庭舞会上初次见面,却因对彼此的印象不佳,一个态度傲慢,另一个心怀偏见。第一个印象先入为主,以后又加上女人们在旁闲言碎语,而造成了两人之间的爱恨情仇。伊丽莎白曾对达西说过:“我们的性情非常相似,我们都不爱交际,沉默寡言,不愿开口,除非我们会说出话来语惊四座,像格言一样具有光彩,流传千古.”就是因为这思想上的一致,才在婚姻中百般受到阻碍,同时也是因为这才最后促成美满的婚姻.伊丽莎白:如果放到现实社会,可能是个女权主义者.但关心自己的姐妹.直接,偶尔不懂礼节,调皮一点.却是这样迷住了达西.最重要的是善于和敢于像比自己身份高的人说“不”。从小说看,伊丽莎白聪敏机智,有胆识,有远见,有很强的自尊心,并善于思考问题。就当时一个待嫁闺中的小姐来讲,这是难能可贵的。正是由于这种品质,才使她在爱情问题上有独立的主见,并导致她与达西组成美满的家庭。

这部小说中通过班耐特五个女儿对待终身大事的不同处理,表现出乡镇中产阶级家庭出身的少女对婚姻爱情问题的不同态度,从而反映了作者本人的婚姻观:为了财产、金钱和地位而结婚是错误的;而结婚不考虑上述因素也是愚蠢的。因此,她既反对为金钱而结婚,也反对把婚姻当儿戏。她强调理想婚姻的重要性,并把男女双方感情作为缔结理想婚姻的基石。书中的女主人公伊丽莎白出身于小地主家庭,为富豪子弟达西所热爱。达西不顾门第和财富的差距,向她求婚,却遭到拒绝。伊丽莎白对他的误会和偏见是一个原因,但主要的是她讨厌他的傲慢。因为达西的这种傲慢实际上是地位差异的反映,只要存在这种傲慢,他与伊丽莎白之间就不可能有共同的思想感情,也不可能有理想的婚姻。以后伊丽莎白亲眼观察了达西的为人处世和一系列所作所为,特别是看到他改变了过去那种骄傲自负的神态,消除了对他的误会和偏见,从而与他缔结了美满姻缘。伊丽莎白对达西先后几次求婚的不同态度,实际上反映了女性对人格独立和平等权利的追求。这是伊丽莎白这一人物形象的进步意义。

作品生动的反映了18世纪末到19世纪初处于保守和闭塞状态下的英国乡镇生活和世态人情。其社会风情画似的小说不仅在当时吸引着广大的读者,实至今日,仍给读者以独特的艺术享受。她是第一个现实地描绘日常平凡生活中平凡恩的小说家,在英国小说史上起了承上启下的作用。奥斯丁的小说尽管题材比较狭窄,故事相当平淡,但是她善於在日常平凡事物中塑造鲜明的人物形象,不论是伊丽莎白、达西那种作者认为值得肯定的人物,还是魏克翰、柯林斯这类遭到讽刺挖苦的对象,都写得真实动人。同时,奥斯丁的语言是经过锤炼的,她在对话艺术上讲究幽默、讽刺,常以风趣诙谐的语言烘托人物的性格特徵。这种艺术创新使她的作品具有自己的特色。傲慢与偏见正是文字魔力结合感情升华的最佳表现。若说《红楼梦》是东方的贵妇人.《傲慢与偏见》则是西方的清秀佳人。

篇1:成语故事读后感

全文共 395 字

+ 加入清单

爷爷给我买了一本《成语故事》书,才看了几页,我就被它精彩的内容深深吸引了。

成语是中华人民特有的语言表达方式,成语故事以通俗易懂的小故事说明了许多做人做事的道理,体现了古人的聪明才智。

《成语故事》这本书主要分为历史成语故事、神话成语故事和寓言成语故事三类。如:《破釜沉舟》、《画龙点睛》、《守株待兔》。其中我非常喜欢《守株待兔》这个成语故事。它讲的是古时候,有个农民因为天气太热,干完了农活在大树下休息。突然一只兔子从远处奔过来,一头撞死在树干上。农夫见到,高兴地把兔子拎回家,美美吃了一顿。从此,他再也不干农活,天天坐在树下等兔子,结果不但没等到兔子,庄稼却死光了。

从这个成语故事中,我懂得了学习和做事都要脚踏实地,不能总守着以前的一点点经验,世上没有不劳而获的事,只有通不断的努力才能有所收获。

《成语故事》这本书不仅让我开阔了视野,增加了不少历史知识,更让我懂得了许多道理,从中得到启示。

篇2:2024初中英语教师个人工作计划

全文共 2868 字

+ 加入清单

一、指导思想

目前初三的英语教学中,因种种因素,造就了相当一部分英语学习比较困难,并伴有的差生。因此对这部分学生加强心理指导,培养培养的心理素质,帮助他们尽快走出困境,成为学习的主人,就显得十分必要。学科教学是学校教育的主渠道、主阵地,学科学习是学生的主导活动,学生大量的心理困惑都产生于学习过程中,各种人格品质也在学科的学习中得到发展。英语作为语言学科,在教学中加强德育及心理方面渗透工作,坚持以人为本,坚持教育创新,坚持______,坚持内涵发展,以行为习惯养成教育为重点,以加强细节教育。

二、工作要点

对于向学生进行思想教育、品德教育、科学文化教育和心理素质教育,在本学期的教学中加强德育工作如下:

(一)有敬业精神,热爱学生。

要用自己的爱来唤起和培养学生对学习的爱,从而引伸到对生活的爱。其实,英语课堂教学不只是语言知识的学习和操练,而是一种温馨的情感交流、智慧潜能的开发,社会__交际能力的早期培养,是师生共同创造精神生活的活动。因此教师在教学中,要尊重学生的人格,建立平等、互相尊重的和谐师生关系,使学生在宽松、融洽、愉快的氛围中进行学习的同时,品德得到培养,性格得到完善。

(二)创新教育让学困生自主学习

传统的英语教学模式中,学生自使自终是被动者,即使是一些很有天赋的好学生。久而久之,也缺乏了创造力。不少学生的学习参与意识差,不愿主动思考和提出问题,更不主动解决问题。依赖于教师现成的说教答案,因此,教师必须更新教学观念,树立心的学生观和教学观。我认为,新的学生观最本质的内容就是在教学中真正能够树立合作教学的观念新的学生观念作根本的出发点就是尊重学生,在英语教学汇总充分发挥每个学生的主体作用,使他们真正成为学习的主人。

(三)渗透情感与学生建立良好的师生关系

情感具有迁移作用。亲其师,则信其道。学生对老师的情感能改善学生对所学学科的倾向性。只要师生建立起相互信赖的感情,学生对老师所提出的要求就容易接受。我们的教学活动能就比较顺利地开展。学困生并非自然固有。学困生渴求得到尊重与关心,信任与理解。教师只有用真诚的爱才能使他们感到温暖,消除自卑,树立信心,才能使他们自尊、自爱、奋发进取。我认为,对于学困生,只要我们真诚地给予关心和帮助,他们也会以爱和敬意来回报我们。他们是不会让老师失望的。

(四)赏识教育让学困生树立自信心

自尊心是一个人对自身的评价,对自身存在的价值和态度的体现。任何学生都有自尊心和荣誉感,每当自己在学习上取得点滴成绩时,总希望得到老师的表扬,学困生更是如此。差生由于羞怯心理,往往在课堂上不敢开口,因此,我对学困生从不大声呵斥,而是具体深入地分析他们之所以差的原因,然后对症下药,循循善诱,在加强辅导的同时,根据学生的发展情况进行有弹性的鼓励。实践证明:利用语言表扬、神情暗示、肢体示意等多种方法,给予学困生以的鼓励是行之有效的,能使他们对自己充满自信,树立学好英语的信心。

2022初中英语教师个人工作计划【篇六】 2022 junior high school English teacher personal work plan [Chapter 6]

一、指导思想

在本学期的英语教学中,坚持以下面的教学理念为指导:第一,切实地了解学生的真实水平,注意衔接,尽快使学生适应我的英语教学;第二,教学要面向全体学生,关注学生的情感,激发他们学习英语的兴趣;第三,以学生为主体,尊重个体差异,因材施教;第四,在新课标的指导下,倡导学生体验参与学习,完成设计目标;第五,注重过程性评价,建立能鼓励学生自主学习能力发展提高的综合评价体系。

二、学生情况分析

本届学生在英语基础方面很薄弱,由于在以前学习英语的过程中,没有很详细全面地学习音标,基本的音标和字母拼读都没有掌握好。在词汇,语法规则等方面存在很多缺漏。所以,在听、说、读、写这四项技能上,学生水平存在很大差异。

另外,学生在学习策略和情感态度方面也存在诸多需要进一步解决的问题。例如:许多学生不能明确学习英语的目的,学习缺乏主动性、自觉性;大多数同学没有养成良好的学习习惯,不能做好课前预习和课后复习工作,学习没有计划性和策略性,也不注意知识的积累和巩固。

最后,学生对新教材缺乏一定程度上的了解,还不适应新课改指导下的一些教学方法。在课堂上,习惯像以往被动地接受所传授的知识,不善于发现和总结语言规律,学习的主体性不突出。

三、教材与教辅的分析

1、内容与结构

每一单元除了关注阅读、写作、听力、视听说等语言实践活动,还关注语言知识、情感态度、文化意识和学习策略等。其中,教材加强了文化意识的提高和学生学习策略的培养,是相较于以前教材很大的不同。

2、教材的特点

首先突出学习者的发展,包括注重学习策略的培养和使用;注重提高学生的语言认知能力;为教师和学生提供个性化的选择;其次努力提高学生用英语进行思维和表达的能力。具体为:为学生提供更多的体验真实语言的机会;精心设计教学活动,使学生看到明确的目标和明确的成果;为学生发展语言运用能力提供详尽的语言支持;重视复现。

3、教材的重难点

该套教材强调学生综合语言运用能力的培养和提高,所以重点在于培养学生用英语获取信息、处理信息的能力;用英语分析问题、解决问题的能力;用英语进行思维和表达的能力。难点在于学生在情感态度和学习策略上的改变,达到用英语思维和表达的目标。

4、教学目标

⑴总体目标:激发学生学习英语的兴趣,树立自信心。在整个教学过程中,让学生有丰富的生活常识、多文化背景的积累,并形成正确人生观、价值观,有积极的情感态度和跨文化的交际能力。同时培养自主学习能力,积累学习方法。

⑵具体目标:结合学生基础知识过于薄弱的实际,在教学刚开始的阶段,注意高一和初中知识的衔接,例如复习音标和字母拼读规律,积累基础词汇、词语搭配、句型,熟悉不同单元呈现的语法规则,掌握实际用法。希望第一学期后,学生能培养学习的兴趣,养成较好的学习习惯,对基础知识有一定的掌握。

5、教学措施

⑴让学生每天积累几个单词,利用“互测及教师抽查”及时检查,保证效果并坚持下去。

⑵认真贯彻晨读制度:规定晨读内容,加强监督,保证晨读效果。

⑶实行过程性评价,调动学生积极性,通过不同方式的检测,让进步的同学体会到成就感,让落后的同学找出差距,感受压力。由此在班里形成浓厚的学习氛围,培养学生健康向上的人格和竞争意识。

⑷关注学生的情感,营造宽松、民主、和谐的教学氛围。

⑸在教学中根据目标并结合教学内容,创造性地设计贴近学生实际的教学活动,吸引和组织他们积极参与。学生通过思考、调查、讨论、交流和合作等方式,学习和使用英语,完成学习任务。

⑹经常进行教学反思,适时调整教学方法,符合学生的真实情况,利于学生的有效性学习。

从所任课班级实际情况和本身条件出发,认真进行思考和改正。多关注学科教研的发展,多多听课向有经验的老师虚心学习,取之所长,多和同事交流探讨,交换教学思想和方法,避己所短,不断进步。积极参与学科的相关课题研究,撰写论文,参加教研组,备课组的教研活动。

篇3:呼啸山庄英语读后感

全文共 3153 字

+ 加入清单

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.

篇6:雾都孤儿英语读后感

全文共 1770 字

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 goodnecould conquer every difficulty. Although I don’t think goodneis 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 goodneis one of the most necessary character for a person. Goodneis to humans what water is to fish. He who is without goodneis an utterly worthleperson. On the contrary as the famous saying goes ‘The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose’ he who is with goodneundoubtedly 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 goodnein humanity. They look down on people’s 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.’

In 1872, Phileas Fogg, an English gentleman, bets 20,000 pounds that he can travel around the world in 80 days. Remember, there were no airplanes or other types of high speed travel.

Fogg and his servant, Passepourtout, leave from London, England and travel acrofour continents on their trip. In India, they meet a beautiful princeand save her life. She joins them on the journey and falls in love with Phileas Fogg.

They are followed around the world by Detective Fix, who has mistaken Fogg for a bank robber. He causes the group lots of trouble and delays, and finally arrests Fogg on the last day of the journey.

The trip was also delayed by storms at sea, unfinished railroad tracks, and an Indian attack in the American West.

Do you think Phileas Fogg and his friends made it around the world in 80 days?

With all of the delays, the group thought they arrived back at London five minutes too late. However, the next day they discovered they were one day ahead of schedule. This was because they had travelled all the way around the world in an eastward direction, ma-ki-ng them gain an extra day as they travelled acrodifferent time zones.

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 goodneeventually 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 goodnecould conquer every difficulty. Although I don’t think goodneis 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 goodneis one of the most necessary character for a person. Goodneis to humans what water is to fish. He who is without goodneis an utterly worthleperson. On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose’, he who is with goodneundoubtedly 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 goodnein humanity. They look down on people’s 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 goodneis 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.

篇8:关于远离尘嚣英语读后感

Let me just start by saying that I had been put off reading Thomas Hardye by Dickens. Having really struggled with Dickens and resorted to audio I had wrongly assumed that all 19C liturature was the same. How wrong I could be. From the first paragraph where the opening character farmer Gabriel Oak is desribed smiling, ‘the corners of his mouth spread till they were an unimportant distance from his ears‘ I fell in love with Hardy‘s narrative. His ability to use words that lift the description off the page and into the reader‘s imagination are not just outstanding but incredibly enjoyable.

I went into this book blindly, knowing little about the plot that lay ahead or even the genre. It has been described by some as romantic fiction. But I think this is too simplistic a title and and maybe slightly off-putting to some. Hardye steps into Greek Tragedy when the unwitting and churlish actions of our young protagonist, Bathsheba Everdene, result in a love tryst between three suitors with tragic consequenses.

The book is essentially a journey for Bathsheba into womanhood not unlike the journey that Scarlett O‘Hara makes in Gone with the Wind who also has to overcome great tragedy in order to realise her own strength. Unlike this heroin, however, Bathsheba is more the instrument of chaos and indecion and part of her journey is that she accepts what she has caused and tries to make it right.

Hardye avoids making this into moral stricture but deviates from the Greek Tragedy model by giving us a happy ending not atypical of 19C serialised fiction.

Quite often an author‘s voice creeps into their writing and the reader becomes aware that they are not in fact walking the hills and dales of fictional Wessex but are at the pen nib of a writ

篇9:英语读后感写作技巧

全文共 2507 字

What can I say about Pixar? Amazing?? Perfect?? Got to see this at the Cannes Film Festival in France (went>【扩展阅读篇】

所谓“感”

可以是从书中领悟出来的道理或精湛的思想,可以是受书中的内容启发而引起的思考与联想,可以是因读书而激发的决心和理想,也可以是因读书而引起的对社会上某些丑恶现象的抨击、讽刺。读后感的表达方式灵活多样,基本属于议论范畴,但写法不同于一般议论文,因为它必须是在读后的基础上发感想。要写好有体验、有见解、有感情、有新意的读后感,必须注意以下几点:

首先,要读好原文

“读后感[1]”的“感”是因“读”而引起的。“读”是“感”的基础。走马观花地读,可能连原作讲的什么都没有了解,哪能有“感”?读得肤浅,当然也感得不深。只有读得认真,才能有所感,并感得深刻。如果要读的是议论文,要弄清它的论点(见解和主张),或者批判了什么错误观点,想一想你受到哪些启发,还要弄清论据和结论是什么。如果是记叙文,就要弄清它的主要情节,有几个人物,他们之间是什么关系,以及故事发生在哪年哪月。作品涉及的社会背景,还要弄清楚作品通过记人叙事,揭示了人物什么样的精神品质,反映了什么样的社会现象,表达了作者什么思想感情,作品的哪些章节使人受感动,为什么这样感动等等。

其次,排好感点

只要认真读好原作,一篇文章可以写成读后感的方面很多。如对原文中心感受得深可以写成读后感,对原作其他内容感受得深也可以写成读后感,对个别句子有感受也可以写成读后感。总之,只要是原作品的内容,只要你对它有感受,都可能写成读后感,你需要把你所知道的都表示出来,这样才能写好读后感。

第三、选准感点

一篇文章,可以排出许多感点,但在一篇读后感里只能论述一个中心,切不可面面俱到,所以紧接着便是对这些众多的感点进行筛选比较,找出自己感受最深、角度最新,现实针对性最强、自己写来又觉得顺畅的一个感点,作为读后感的中心,然后加以论证成文。

第四、叙述要简

既然读后感是由读产生感,那么在文章里就要叙述引起“感”的那些事实,有时还要叙述自己联想到的一些事例。一句话,读后感中少不了“叙”。但是它不同于记叙文中“叙”的要求。记叙文中的“叙”讲究具体、形象、生动,而读后感中的“叙”却讲究简单扼要,它不要求“感人”,只要求能引出事理。初学写读后感引述原文,一般毛病是叙述不简要,实际上变成复述了。这主要是因为作者还不能把握所要引述部分的精神、要点,所以才简明不了。简明,不是文字越少越好,简还要明。

第五,联想要注意形式

联想的形式有相同联想(联想的事物之间具有相同性)、相反联想(联想的事物之间具有相反性)、相关联想(联想的事物之间具有相关性)、相承联想(联想的事物之间具有相承性)、相似联想(联想的事物之间具有相似性)等多种。写读后感尤其要注意相同联想与相似联想这两种联想形式的运用。

编辑本段如何写读后感

格式

一、格式和写法

读后感通常有三种写法:一种是缩写内容提纲,一种是写阅读后的体会感想,一种是摘录好的句子和段落。题目可以用《读后感》;还可以用自己的感受(一两个词语)做题目,下一行是——《读有感》,第一行是主标题,第二行是副标题。

二、要选择自己感受最深的东西去写,这是写好读后感的关键。

三、要密切联系实际,这是读后感的重要内容。

四、要处理好“读”与“感”的关系,做到议论,叙述,抒情三结合。

五、叙原文不要过多,要体现出一个“简”字。

六、要审清题目。

写作时,要分辨什么是主要的,什么是次要的,力求做到“读”能抓住重点,“感”能写出体会。

七、要选择材料。

读是写的基础,只有读得认真仔细,才能深入理解文章内容,从而抓住重点,把握文章的思想感情,才能有所感受,有所体会;只有认真读书才能找到读感之间的联系点来,这个点就是文章的中心思想,就是文中点明中心思想的句子。对一篇作品,写体会时不能面面俱到,应写自己读后在思想上、行动上的变化。

八、写读后感应以所读作品的内容简介开头,然后,再写体会。

原文内容往往用3~4句话概括为宜。结尾也大多再回到所读的作品上来。要把重点放在“感”字上,切记要联系自己的生活实际。

九、要符合情理、写出真情实感。

写读后感的注意事项

①写读后感绝不是对原文的抄录或简单地复述,不能脱离原文任意发挥,应以写“体会”为主。

②要写得有真情实感。应是发自内心深处的感受,绝非“检讨书”或“保证书”。

③要写出独特的新鲜感受,力求有新意的见解来吸引读者或感染读者。

④禁止写成流水账!

编辑本段要写关于学习的读后感应该读什么有感

(1)引——围绕感点 引述材料。简述原文有关内容。

(2)概——概括本文的主要内容 ,要简练,而且要把重点写出来。

(3)议——分析材料,提练感点。亮明基本观点。在引出“读”的内容后,要对“读”进行一番评析。既可就事论事对所“引”的内容作一番分析;也可以由现象到本质,由个别到一般的作一番挖掘;对寓意深的材料更要作一番分析,然后水到渠成地“亮”出自己的感点。要选择感受最深的一点,用一个简洁的句子明确表述出来。这样的句子可称为"观点句"。这个观点句表述的,就是这篇文章的中心论点。"观点句"在文中的位置是可以灵活的,可以在篇首,也可以在篇末或篇中。初学写作的同学,最好采用开门见山的方法,把观点写在篇首。

(4) 联——联系实际,纵横拓展。围绕基本观点摆事实讲道理。写读后感最忌的是就事论事和泛泛而谈。就事论事撒不开,感不能深入,文章就过于肤浅。泛泛而谈,往往使读后感缺乏针对性,不能给人以震撼。联,就是要紧密联系实际,既可以由此及彼地联系现实生活中相类似的现象,也可以由古及今联系现实生活中的相反的种种问题。既可以从大处着眼,也可以从小处入手。当然在联系实际分析论证时,还要注意时时回扣或呼应“引”部,使“联”与“引””藕”断而“丝”连这部分就是议论文的本论部分,是对基本观点(即中心论点)的阐述,通过摆事实讲道理证明观点的正确性,使论点更加突出,更有说服力。这个过程应注意的是,所摆事实,所讲道理都必须紧紧围绕基本观点,为基本观点服务。

篇12:《红楼梦》中学生读后感

全文共 1112 字

暑假里,我读了一本书,名叫《红楼梦》。虽然她的故事结束了,但是她给我留下了万千思念。合上书,想要把这份内心的尘埃封住,但一闭上眼,那段应该被禁锢的伤感晕又像尘埃一样在空中飞扬、旋转、舞动……

然而,她的玲珑心思,于花开之时便见花落之凄,那份明了、心气、才华,在芸芸大观园里,犹如一枝傲雪寒梅,独立于世。在一次又一次的品读中,从单纯的了解情节,到赏佳句美言,到品意境,到看字句背后的作者匠心,析人物性格命运,书中的人物,如同我的朋友,越走越近,逐渐为我了解,为我好恶。

书如人,人亦如书。

友谊就像酿酒,经年愈久,味道越浓。第一眼的印象不过是大致分类,如书的体裁,有散文、诗歌、小说、随笔,也有说教八股文。这第一眼,极为浅近,却又非常重要。喜欢小说的人看到诗歌,必然少一份深入品读的热情,而热衷政事的人看到说教八股文,则会有莫大的兴趣。没有热情,也许会错失一生的缘分;拥有兴趣,也许就握着了打开一个世界的钥匙。

然而,仅凭第一眼,我们无法了解一个人。一本包装精美的书,里面也许全是空言滥言妄言,甚至谎言。人有金玉其外,败絮其中,书亦有斯是陋书,唯其言馨。要真正了解一个人,还得花时间读他。正所谓观其言而察其行,要像读书那样,静静地用心读一个人,读外表,也读言行,还读内心。有的人,第一眼很“对眼”,然而相交下来越走越远,最后甚至避之不及;有的人,第一印象不过如此,慢慢交往却发现他的众多好处,心中不免窃喜幸好未曾错过;也有的人,从见面的那一刻,恍若隔世重逢,从此相知相惜……好书难求,好友难得。

读书,必须要读细节,细节处可得文章之真义。读人,最好和他共过患难,患难时方可见人之真情。你生病的时候陪伴在你身边嘘寒问暖、端茶递水的那个人,你失落的时候体贴问候、尽心开解的那个人,在凌晨两点还为你开着手机、肯听你唠叨的那个人,欣赏你的理想同时会提醒你踏实前进的那个人……这些,都是你应该要珍惜的人。

人格是用一笔一画写成的。老子说,“天下难事,必作于易;天下大事,必作于细。”生活中,许多感人的东西都来自细节;校园里,许多伟大的力量都来自细节。人格浓缩在细节里,学校的精神和风貌也可以通过细节处透视。

生活和工作也是如此,赢得别人对自己的信任不容易,但如果你注重细节,也许你已经赢得了一半。人不一定能使自己伟大,但一定可以使自己崇高。长期培养,严于律己,从一言一行一颦一笑,一桩桩具体小事做起,我们的人格才能高尚,我们的校园才能美好,我们的社会才会充满希望。

铅华洗尽,本色方露。狂沙吹尽,金玉始现。书亦如人,仿佛千变万化。人亦如书,其实万变不离其中。读书,就静静地读,直到看书不是书,看它物却见书的境界。读人,也静静地读,读出真性、真情、真义。

篇13:《父与子》读后感

暑假里老师给我们推荐了一本叫《父与子》的书。一看到书的标题我心里很纳闷,是不是老师弄错书名了,平时老师都叫我们看的都是名著或散文这一类的。这次破天荒怎么叫我们看一本漫画书。但转眼又暗喜,还真的谢谢老师推荐这么好的书。因为这是一本老少皆宜的漫画书。它出自德国漫画大师埃·卜劳恩之手。

一拿到书后我被书的画面深深吸引了。虽然里面没有文字表达,但那一幅幅有趣的画面,让我更了解里面的内容。

书中描写了一个头发短胡子长幽默搞笑的父亲和一个长头发喜欢搞恶作剧淘气可爱的儿子之间发生的一系列事情。

父亲非常幽默,也有一点严格,偶尔也有一点傻傻的。儿子即淘气又可爱的有时很聪明。比如有一次儿子的作业上课时不认真听,于是作业就全部写错。之后老师就让全体家长签字,签字的目的是为了让家长知道儿子在学校的学习情况。但聪明的儿子知道如果作业拿去让父亲签名的话,肯定会被父亲骂的。于是他想了一个和父亲玩签字的游戏。规则先让对方蒙着眼睛签字,于是儿子就趁父亲签字的时侯把作业打开,这样他父亲名字就不自不觉的签在了作业本上了。而儿子也过了“家长签字鬼门关”。

这样的故事很多很多。他们很勇敢。一天晚上,他们刚刚要睡觉,结果就碰见了一个圆头鬼,鬼一看到父子俩就想去吓他们。可他们并没有被吓倒。儿子反而冲了上去,把那个鬼的踢飞了。鬼立马捡起头,然后惨败而逃。

可对我而言我就胆小多了。记得有一次我去宋城,兴冲冲的来到“鬼屋”,但在门口排了整整排了一个多小时,当轮到我进去时,我的脚好像被什么东西拴住了似的挪也梛不开。由此可见我是一个多么胆小的人。

看了这本书,我也很想做一回书中的小主人公,因为这样可以无忧无虑的和父亲玩耍还有不被因为有太多作业所困绕。而有一个快乐幸福的童年。

暑假,我读了《伊索寓言》这部短篇故事集。翻开它,我感觉自我好像打开了一个充满智慧的魔袋,智慧之光从每一篇小故事里散发出来,充盈了我的书屋,也照亮了我的内心。

《伊索寓言》里讲的大部分是动物的故事,这些故事有的教导人善良、正直、知恩图报;有的告诫人不要骄傲、不要撒谎;有的提醒人做好事要看对象,以免上当受骗;有的告诉人要善于运用智慧战胜敌人;有的告诉人做事要遵循事物的规律、量力而行;有的则揭露强权者的残暴和蛮横无理。

在这些故事中,我最喜欢的是龟兔赛跑。虽然很多人都对这个故事耳熟能详,也明白其中的道理,但并不是所有人都能真正学到乌龟的精神。大部分人都是比别人聪明一点或是取得一点成绩就翘起尾巴,一不细心就成了那只骄傲自满的兔子,连我也是如此。重读这个故事,我更加明白戒骄傲的道理。骄傲是成功的大敌,只要有一点骄傲的情绪,就会与成功失之交臂。所以,我必须要戒掉身上的骄傲,并学习乌龟的毅力。即使我比别人笨一点儿也没关系,只要坚持不懈,始终向着目标努力,就必须能实现目标。

暑假里,我读了一本书——《伊索寓言》。这本书让我爱不释手,因为它通过一个个十分简单且很短的小故事,讲述了一个个深入人心的道理。

有一个故事给我印象最深,那就是《两只狗》这个故事。一个人两只狗:一只狗教它打猎,帮助自己打猎;另一只看家狗,帮自己看家。每次猎人回到家,总要分一份猎物给看家狗。猎狗看了很生气,骂它的同伴:“打猎是很辛苦的,你一点没帮忙。还吃我得来的成果。”看家狗说:“朋友,你不要责怪我,要怪就怪主人吧!是他不让我干活,而依赖别人的劳动生活。”

这个故事告诉我们:有些过错是父母过分宠爱而养成的,父母却只会责怪我们。看家狗因为主人过度娇宠,而导致它养成依赖别人的不良习惯。作为主人,应该教看家狗干活,让它学会独立生存。同样的道理,我们的父母也可以找自身的原因,培养我们的独立性,告诉我们靠自己双手和大脑创造自己的美好生活。

《伊索寓言》告诉了我很多很多的人生哲理,给我了许多启示;能告诉我们什么该做,什么不该做。我非常喜欢这本书!

Sense and Sensibility was the first Jane Austen published. Though she initially called it Elinor and Marianne, Austen jettisoned both the title and the epistolary mode in which it was originally written, but kept the essential theme: the necessity of finding a workable middle ground between passion and reason. The story revolves around the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. Whereas the former is a sensible, rational creature, her younger sister is wildly romantic--a characteristic that offers Austen plenty of scope for both satire and compassion. Commenting on Edward Ferrars, a potential suitor for Elinors hand, Marianne admits that while she "loves him tenderly," she finds him disappointing as a possible lover for her sister.

Soon however, Marianne meets a man who measures up to her ideal: Mr. Willoughby, a new neighbor. So swept away by passion is Marianne that her behavior begins to border on the scandalous. Then Willoughby abandons her; meanwhile, Elinors growing affection for Edward suffers a check when he admits he is secretly engaged to a childhood sweetheart. How each of the sisters reacts to their romantic misfortunes, and the lessons they draw before coming finally to the requisite happy ending forms the heart of the novel. Though Mariannes disregard for social conventions and willingness to consider the world well-lost for love may appeal to modern readers, it is Elinor whom Austen herself most evidently admired; a truly happy marriage, she shows us, exists only where sense and sensibility meet and mix in proper measure.

篇20:有关简爱读后感英语版

全文共 5533 字

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.
