海伦凯勒》这篇文章真是一个感人肺腑的故事,当我读完这篇文章,受益匪浅。

"Helen Keller" this article is really a touch one deeply in the heart of the story, when I finish reading this article, benefit.

这个故事讲述了美国的盲聋女作家、教育家海伦。凯勒的一声坎坷。在海伦一岁半时,一场飞来横祸使她丧失了人的本能,从此,小海伦与有声有色的世界隔绝了,但她没有向命运而屈服。在老师的精心指导下,她学会了用手指“说话”,并且还掌握了五种文字。24岁时的她又以优异的成绩毕业于是著名的哈佛大学得克利好学院……从那以后,她把所有的精力都投到了世界盲人,还获得许多政府以及高等学院的赞扬和嘉奖。

It is the story of the American writer, educator Helen. Keller a rough. Helen in a year and a half, an unexpected trouble made her lose the instinct of a man, from now on, little Helen and the world be full of sound and colour, but she did not yield to fate. In the careful guidance of the teacher, she has learned to "talk" with your fingers, and also mastered five languages. At the age of 24 she graduated with honors and the famous Harvard University Texas good school...... Since then, she put all the energy into the world blind, also get a lot of government and higher school of praise and commendation.

一个盲人取得这么大的成就是何等令人惊讶!如果海伦屈服于不幸的命运,那么她将成为一个可怜而又愚昧的寄生者。然而她没有向命运低头,她以惊人的爆发力,顽强的精神,走完了人生的道路,为人类做出了巨大的贡献,成为一个知识广博,令天下人尊敬的人。

A blind man made such a great achievement is so amazing! If Helen succumbed to the fate, then she will be a parasitic poor and ignorant person. However, she did not bow to fate, her amazing explosive, indomitable spirit, walk the road of life, has made the tremendous contribution for the mankind, as a wide range of knowledge, make world the man of respect.

海伦的一生是不平凡的,她给予人们极大的鼓舞,使那些虚度光阴的人万分悔恨。记得海伦曾提出这样一来的问题:“假如你的眼睛明天将要失明,你今天要看什么?”这使我懂得一个道理:我们健康人,不能迟疑,不能虚度光阴,应该珍惜这美好的时光,珍惜这美好的生活。

Helens life is extraordinary, she gave people a great encouragement, so that those idling people very regret. Remember Helen once proposed that such a question: "if your eyes will be blind tomorrow, do you want to see what today?" This makes me understand a truth: we healthy people, dont hesitate, not waste time, we should cherish this wonderful time, cherish this Wonderfull Life.

小王子》是法国作家安托万·德·圣·埃克苏佩里于1942年写成的著名儿童文学短篇小说。下面,小编为大家分享《小王子》读后感英语版,希望对大家有所帮助!

Title: The Little Prince

Author: Antoine de St-Exupery

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

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

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

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

Traveling on the earth, the little prince, who sees a garden of five-thousand roses, is overcome with astonishment and sadness, as he considers his rose is unique in the universe before。 At that time a fox appears。 The fox, who tell the little prince about the meaning of the word “tame”, becomes his new friend。 At the time to say farewell, the fox makes him know that his rose is unique because she is his rose and tamed by him。 From that the little prince begins to treasure friendship and be responsible to his rose。

At the anniversary day of his descent of the earth, rejecting the pilot’s advice, he goes back to his own planet by bite of a snake。 “It’s too far。 I can not carry this body with me。 It’s too heavy。” he said。 He tells his friend, the pilot, he must be responsible for his rose, so he has to go back。 At the end the author doesn’t tell us the ending directly。 Maybe it’s more significant for us to imagine, and for more, think over。

One of the important characters is the rose。 Growing on the planet, she is very beautiful, but her coquetry and vanity suffer the little prince a lot。 In spite of they love each other, he soon becomes unhappy。 On the time of his departure, he just knows she certainly loves him。 The character of the little prince actually represents the children, and their native thoughts and deeds。 On the contrary, the inhabitants on the other planets, such as the king, the businessman and the conceited man, they also reflect the defects in the grown-up’s world。 The real theme of this fairy-tale with a little sadness, I guess, is the consequence of pure love and friendship in our lives, but not others “matters of consequence” of the grown-ups。

La dame aux camelias alexandre dumas, French is the author of this novel, let me feel too deep, the feeling is too deep.

Ancient beauty rush, more beautiful appearance bring infinite sadness and tragedy. While prostitutes, especially beautiful and talented prostitute, go along this road is hard. Such as ten niangs, fear and love and hate into the spring waters flowed eastward; Chen sisi, round fate is also a sigh, a helpless. And Ive seen la dame aux camelias after just understand this kind of tragedy is not only happened in China.

This is Margarets love tragedy story. The humble a weak woman in dissolute and no purpose to find the true love in life, used to abandon their material comforts, gave up everything to make yourself happy for the time being the erosion life habit, can only to ask and favorite people together. To climb out, from the deep mire is to spend a lot of strength and determination, and also make their minimum mud pollution. Margaret did, and do very well. Can be so great, in return for the remains of people dont understand and exclusion, and selfish people malicious slander. Huge resistance to Margaret and eventually lovers separated, misunderstanding to your most favorite people need comfort to expose her, this is how painful thing? Perhaps really only death can save her. Yes, Margaret died, died lonely, never alive when luxury, countless lovers also forget her before. Before the more sensation of life, death, the more cold and cheerless.

Thank dumas created such a sad La Traviata and lovely beautiful woman. However, in the hope that the dead flower bud from the soil, rebirth again, away from the dark corner, can every day and the sun company, even if no longer so beautiful, dont repeat the tragedy of the past.

茶花女》的作者是法国的亚历山大·小仲马,这本小说,让我感触太深,感悟也太深。

自古红颜多薄命,美丽的容颜带来的却是无限的哀愁与悲剧。而妓女,特别是美丽而又有才情的妓女,在这条路上走得更是艰苦。比如杜十娘,情仇爱恨化作一江春水向东流;李思思、陈圆圆的命运也是令人感慨、令人无奈。而我看过《茶花女》后才明白这样的悲剧不只发生在中国。

玛格丽特的爱情悲剧故事就是这样的。一介弱质女流在放荡且无目的的生命中找寻到了真爱,为此放弃了自己习以为常的物质享受,放弃了一切能使自己暂时快乐的糜烂生活习惯,只为求能和最爱的人呆在一起。要从深陷的泥潭中爬出来,是要花很大的力气和决心的,况且还要使自己最小程度地被泥水污染。玛格丽特做到了,而且做的非常出色。可如此巨大的付出,换回的仍是人们的不理解和排挤,还有自私的人们的恶意中伤。巨大的阻力最终还是使玛格丽特和爱人分开了,误会使最爱的人再自己最需要安慰的时候羞辱她,这是何等痛苦的事情?也许真的只有死亡可以拯救她。是的,玛格丽特死了,孤独的死去,再也没了活着时的奢华,以前无数的情人也忘了她。生前的生活愈是轰动,死的时候就愈是冷清。

感谢小仲马塑造了茶花女这样一个可悲却又可敬的美丽女子。然而,希望那已死去的花朵再次从泥土中萌芽、重生的时候,远离那阴暗的墙角,能每天和阳光为伴,即使不再那么美丽,也不要重复前世的悲剧。

昨天,我带孩子去电影院看了现在燃爆网络的影片《哪吒之魔童降世》,其曲折离奇的故事情节,幽默搞笑的台词设计顿时让我耳目一新。

影片开头的太乙真人的造型让人一看就感觉很有趣,造型设计成功颠覆了你的想象,在我们心目中太乙真人一直都是道骨仙风,清瘦高冷的仙人模样,而此片却是瘦脸大肚,说着四川话的滑稽模样。

而另一个颠覆我们想象则是的龙王造型,在我们想象中,龙王就应该跟电视剧《西游记》那样模样,头戴冠冕,身穿刺绣滚龙黄袍龙头人身的龙王形象,而此片中的龙王却始终是一条全身银白色鳞片,头上长着两个长长犄角,两条长长龙须的巨龙模样。

而此片最大的特色是哪吒不像以前的人物一样,生性顽皮可爱,而此片的哪吒则是生性顽劣,到处闯祸惹得人们对他怨声载道。从而也为后面的巨大转变埋下了伏笔。主人公哪吒与另一个反面人物敖丙,两人亦正亦邪,从偶然相识到惺惺相惜,再到相互搏杀,再至最后的患难与共。他们俩的传奇友谊为我们证明了朋友的真正价值与意义。

最令人感动的是李靖夫妇对哪吒的用心呵护与疼爱,尤其是李靖想用自己的肉身来换取哪吒的安全时,那感人的情景令人瞬间泪奔。哪吒在将要自己独自承受雷霆之击,最后他与父母离别时说:“其实三年也不短了”那一句时,也让人瞬间感动的热泪盈眶。

这部电影以父母的爱,朋友的爱为主题,生动地表现了孩子在年少时,虽然偶尔会闯祸,但那是孩子的天性使然,所以我们父母不要过分地苛责与训斥孩子,而要以一颗宽容之心,用心去呵护他们,用爱去温暖他们。像哪吒那样顽劣的孩子在他父母的爱心呵护下,尚且可以改邪归正,我们的孩子为什么会做不到呢?这个电影用丝丝入扣,合情合理的故事情节,更为我们父母上了生动的一课。

当然这部电影还有很多幽默风趣的故事情节,比如里面哪吒躺在床上唱的歌谣也很有趣,用筷子敲碗的情节,我感觉这个片段是在向周星驰的经典电影《唐伯虎点秋香》致敬,那里面唐伯虎也是用筷子敲碗,唱了一段令人感到啼笑皆非的台词。还有江山社稷图那唯美动人的画面,我就不再这里进行一样赘述了,如果剧透太多的话,或许你去电影院就会觉得兴趣索然。

这部电影真的很好看,如果大家对这部电影感兴趣的话,我建议最好带孩子一起去看看。

绿野仙踪》这本书,让你有何收获呢?下面一起去阅读小编整理的绿野仙踪英语读后感吧,欢迎借鉴!

After reading this wonderful story, I can feel love, brave, deep friendship and some other good spirits in the people.

Scarecrow wanted some brains, but on the way to emerald city, he came up with a way across the river. Timid lions want to be brave, but when they meet the river, he jumps over it with other friends. The tin man wants a heart, he says he can t love, but he doesn t want to hurt any animals.

In fact, they all have the things they want: the Scarecrow is clever, the Cowardly Lion is brave and the Tin Man is kind-hearted.

This book tells us a story of how a little girl Dorothy goes back to her hometown when she is in another strange city. Dorothy is a little girl who lived with her aunt and uncle in Kansas. The weather there is very bad, sometimes there was a cyclone. When a cyclone came, people stayed under their houses. But one day a cyclone blows Dorothy’s house, with Dorothy and her dog Toto in it, to a country called Oz. In that city there are four witches and a very famous wizard—the Wizard of Oz. And Dorothy’s house just fell on the bad Witch of the East and killed her, so the people there were very happy. Dorothy took the witch’s red shoes and wore them. She wanted to go home to Kansas but she doesn’t know how to get there. So the Witch of North told her to go to the Emerald City to find the Wizard of Oz to help her. Then Dorothy met the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion, but they need help too. The Scarecrow wanted some brains, the Tin Man wanted a heard, and the Cowardly Lion wanted to be brave. So they all take the yellow brick road to the Emerald City. On the way to the Emerald City they met some difficulties, but they solved them successfully. After they met the Wizard of Oz, the wizard gave them another challenge—to kill the bad Witch of the West and they accept. During the way to the Witch of the West’s house, they were caught by the witch and Dorothy was requested to work for her. One day, when the witch tried to catch Dorothy’s red shoes, Dorothy threw some water on the witch by accident and the Witch of the West disappeared. Only water can kill her. So Dorothy went back to the Emerald City with her friends but they found the Wizard of Oz is not a real wizard, he is also a man came from Kansas, and he is just a conjurer. He wanted to go back to Kansas too. So he made a big balloon and prepared to go. But when the balloon is going to raise, Dorothy’s dog Toto jumped away to run after a cat, so Dorothy had to get Toto back and they were left in Oz. Then Dorothy and Toto went and find the Witch of the South and the witch told them they can just use the red shoes on Dorothy’s feet, they’re a pair of magic shoes, they could take anybody go back to their home as soon as she said‘East, west—home is the best!’After Dorothy said goodbye to her friends, she went back to her new home with her dog. It’s really a wonderful risk.

Yes, no matter where we are, home is always the best place for us to rest or study. There are our parents here; there are also our favorite things here. At home, we feel safe, we feel comfortable, and we can relax ourselves.

From this story, we can see Dorothy is a brave and kind-hearted girl. She killed the two bad witches in Oz; she helped the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion to go to the Emerald City to find the Wizard and get what they want. She solved problems when they met difficulties. It’s really not easy for such a little girl.

We also learn that teamwork is important for us. When we are in trouble, we can ask our friends for help, and also, when our friends need help, we should go and help them. Just remember, more people, more power. It’s always better has more people to do a thing. Teamwork is really necessary in our lives.

And we can see the Scarecrow is absolutely cleaver, he understands things, he can think, he learn quickly, and he suggested Dorothy to cut down a tree to cross the river. The tin man has a kind heart, he laughs, he cries, he loves, he feels sorry for people. The Cowardly Lion is really brave, he did a lot of brave things, he carried the friends to go across the river, and he wanted to find some food for his friends and so on. We should learn from them too. When we are in trouble, we should calm down, watch the things around carefully, and try to think out of a way to solve it, just like the Scarecrow. We also should be brave as we are in danger, we can’t be afraid, we should face the difficulty and try to go through it, just like the Cowardly Lion. And we should learn to love people, to feel sorry for people, to make more friends, to get on well with everyone around us, just like the Tin Man.

Yes, we should learn how to get on with other people, we should help each other, we should be brave, we should love other people. If we can do like this, we can be a better girl (boy), more and more people will make friends with us, and more and more people will like us!

篇8:英语课程标准的基本理念读后感

全文共 1341 字

+ 加入清单

新的英语课程标准引发了一系列变化,首先加强了指导性和可操作性;其次体现语言学习的规律和渐进性;再次体现了弹性和选择;第四有的地方降低了难度;第五有的地方提高了要求。对教学模式和教师本人提出了新的挑战,同时也提供了新的发展空间。

一、教师是活动的指导者,学生是活动的主体

《英语课程标准》的基本理念中提到“让学生在教师指导下,通过感知、体验、实践、参与和合作探究等活动方式,实现任务的目标,感受成功。学生在学习过程中进行情感态度和学习策略的调整,以形成积极的学习态度,促进语言实际运用能力的提高。”

这就要求我们英语老师要掌握一定的课堂和课外教学艺术,开展集趣味、知识、娱乐、教育于一体的英语活动,能为学生提供尽可能多的语言实践机会。教师要用直观形象的形体语言,丰富多彩的表情,幽默风趣的语言表达,使学生在轻松、愉快、和谐的氛围中复习旧知,学习新知,提高学习信心。

教学中教师要根据教学目标,学生的需要和客观条件,创造性地探索有效的教学方法,要学会活用教法突破难点。我们可以鼓励学生大胆地模仿,带表情说句子。如“I am hungry.”(可以作饥饿状);“I am thirty.”(可以作口渴状)。在教单词或句子时,我们老师可以带领学生做动作,甚至做夸张的动作或用夸张的朗读语调,孩子们特别喜欢。“big”两手张开画个大圈,“small”用两手指做个特别小的小圈,“strong”出示手臂,并鼓起肌肉,“thin”做一个瘦的动作。学完单词后,老师做出动作,学生就会说出这个单词。

二、多用评价语,真诚激励。

《英语课程标准》的基本理念中对评价案例进行了重新整合和调整,补充了大量的可操作性比较强的评价方式和方法,提到“英语教学中提倡过程性评价方式,把对学生的评价贯穿到平常的学习过程之中。注重培养和激发学生学习的积极性和自信心。”

因为每个学生,都渴望得到老师的重视和肯定,渴望得到激励和赞许。让每个学生都能享受到鼓励、温暖的阳光,这样无论哪种知识水平、能力、层次的学生都能获得心理上的满足,从而使学生有一种积极向上的源动力。所以教师的评价语应丰富多彩,真诚激励。下面的句子应该多说:Good! Great! Wonderful! You are clever! Don’t worry!

三、面向全体学生、尊重学生的自主选择

《英语课程标准》的教学建议中提到“尊重每个学生,建立融洽、民主的师生交流渠道。”平时学生如果主动帮我拿教具,我会向他致谢“Thank you”,若不小心撞到了学生,我会很抱歉地道声“Sorry”……虽然是点点滴滴的小事情小细节,但我希望从中带给学生“师生平等”的观念。

老师因为尊重学生而更关注他们的个性发展,学生因为受到老师的尊重会更乐意亲近老师,也就更加尊敬老师,这种心灵上的沟通和交流,一旦形成健康的双向互动,正面效应就会成倍增长,师生关系也会更加和谐地向前发展。

总之,新课程下的课堂教学,应是通过师生互动、学生之间的互动,共同发展的课堂。它既注重了知识的生成过程,又注重了学生的情感体验和能力的培养。因此,我们在教学中对教材的处理、教学过程的设计以及评价的方式都要以学生的发展为中心,以提高学生的全面发展为宗旨,这才是课改的最终目标。

In this life and death struggle, Johncy because Mr Behrman that a leaf, the great spiritual power, set up the confidence, to overcome the disease and brave to fight the disease, withered life finally erupt again. In fact, everyone will encounter difficulties and setbacks, the key is to see if you have confidence, can be brave to face it, overcome it.

In life, in the face of difficulties, in the face of challenges, just keep the optimistic positive attitude, brave to challenge, even if failure, there will be no regret. Lets paint in his heart that a piece of falling leaves, not positive in the face of life.

读过欧-亨利的《最后一片叶子》之后,我深深地被感动了。患 了 肺炎Johncy姑娘把窗外墙上的常春藤叶子当作自己的生命。看着叶子一片片飘落,她不禁悲观而又绝望,她觉得那最后一片掉下来,她也要去了。同样是身患肺炎的老画家Behrman先生在那片仅剩的叶子落下去的晚上,顶风冒雨在墙上为Johncy画上了最后一片叶子,便与世长辞。

Johncy因为自己的病而一蹶不振,甚至悲观到了将生命寄托在叶子的身上。她以为最后一片树叶落下,她也就解脱了。对待生命,乐观的人和悲观的人会作出截然不同的抉择:乐观者及时面对死亡也会对生命充满希望,勇敢的为自己的生命而与死神搏击;而悲观的人,即使拥有健康的体魄,也会因为不良的心态也会使旺盛的生命枯萎。

在故事中,Behrman先生所画的那一片常春藤叶子,不只是一片叶子,也不只是一幅画,它是人们对希望不懈追求的象征,也映射出了Behrman先生善良的心灵。它给了Johncy生活下去的勇气和希望,并使她的肺炎得以治愈。

在这生与死的抗争中,Johncy因为Behrman先生的那一片叶子,产生了巨大的精神力量,树立了战胜病魔的信心,并勇敢地与病魔作斗争,枯萎的生命终于又重新勃发了生机。事实上,每一个人都会遇到困难和挫折,关键是看自己有没有信心,能不能勇敢地去面对它,战胜它。

在生活中,面对困难,面对挑战时,只要保持着乐观积极的心态,勇敢地去挑战,即使失败,也不会有遗憾。让我们在自己心中描绘出那一片不落的叶子,积极向上的面对生活吧。

寒假,我读了高尔基的自传体小说《童年》,它给我的感触颇深。

它向我们艺术地展示了阿廖沙在黑暗社会追求光明的奋斗历程,还有十九世纪七十到八十年代的俄国社会风貌。3岁的时候,父亲病故,母亲就带阿廖沙回了娘家。可惜外公是个自私而又专横的小业主,但是资本主义俄国的发展打断了外公发财的好梦,从此破产以至于贫困潦倒。可怜的母亲改嫁之后,生病而死,十一岁的作者被外公残忍地赶出了家门,到社会上自谋生路……其实,阿廖沙的原型就是高尔基本人,高尔基借阿廖沙这个人物来描述自己的童年。高尔基用真实优美的文笔描述了自已苦难而令人难以置信童年。

我们现在丰衣足食,要什么有什么,又是父母的“掌上明珠”、“心肝宝贝”哪能和高尔基那悲惨的童年相提并论,年代的不同就是这差别,一个是天堂,一个是地狱;一个充满阳光,一个到处黑暗。我们现在的童年来之不易啊!童年充满着欢乐,童年到处是温暖,童年是值得回忆的相机,童年爱满心窝!而高尔基的童年除了一些教育和友谊,没有什么再值得回忆!

假如我们生活俄国沙皇时期又会怎么样?会认为那根本不是人生活的地方吗?我们不仅要珍惜眼前的幸福,而且要学会制造幸福。屠格涅夫说过:“屠格涅夫说过:”想要得到幸福,你首先要学会吃得起苦。“美好的生活必须有所付出,才会长久,有所争取,才会得到。

He have not perfect childhood, but his adoptive father keep promise, even at the move to jobs in order to satisfied the university to change jobs, jobs is a dream with a persistent person, and in order to achieve the dream of its own "to live is to change the world", do not hesitate to give up college, even in his most difficult time abandoned by he founded apple, and never give up. Finally, in the advocation innovation of society, he realized his dream, he and his team is in the United States and mankinds pursuit of "innovation". In a sense, the success of jobs may be human freedom in the United States, the perfect combination of personalized education and innovation spirit.

Sincerely hope we can have their own "jobs" in China, to be able to have a group of have a dream, a team of entrepreneurs with innovative spirit, it to live is to change the world "of vibration energy, my China. I think, if you want to achieve this, we need to change too much, rigid way of education, pure business environment, the correct view of wealth... maybe not a generation of effort, starts from me!!!!

近日读了本《乔布斯传》,虽然一直是APLLE粉,但对乔布斯却知之甚少,读后深为之痴迷,这是一个不可思议的人,一个改变了世界的人,虽然他的人生之旅是如此之短暂,却足以让众多活着的人汗颜……

他拥有并不完美的童年,但他的养父信守承诺,为了能去乔布斯满意的大学甚至不惜搬家换工作,乔布斯是个有着梦想与并执着的人,为了实现自己“活着就是为了改变世界”的梦想,不惜放弃大学学业,即使在他最困难的时候被自己创办的苹果抛弃,也从未放弃过。最终,在那个崇尚创新的社会,他实现了自己的梦想,他与他的团队正是美国以及全人类所追求的“创新精神”的代名词。从某种意义上讲,乔布斯的成功也许是美国的人性自由,个性化教育及创新精神的完美结合。

衷心希望我们中国能够拥有自己的“乔布斯”,能够拥有一批有梦想,有创新精神的企业家队伍,以‘活着就是为了改变世界“的魄力,振我中华之雄风。我想,要想实现这些,需要我们改变的太多了,死板的教育方式,纯净的创业环境,正确的财富观……也许不是一代人的努力,从我做起吧!

放笔之际,耳畔又想起了乔布斯对斯卡利说的那句名言‘你是想卖一辈子糖水,还是想改变世界’。

I’d never given much thought to how I would die. But dying in the place of someone I love seems like a good way to go. ” When reading such moving words, I am completely absorbed in this splendid novel --- Twilight. The person who had said such moving words was a 17-year-old girl --- Bella, who was a high school student. After reading the whole novel, what impresses me most is not the mysterious vampires family, but the kindhearted and brave girl --- Bella. Bella was a 17-year-old girl who has experienced her parents’ divorce. In order not to be an obstacle to her mother’s happiness with her stepfather, Bella firmly chose to move into a new city --- Forks to live with her father. Even though she knew that what was waiting for her was the new and strange circumstance, Bella still decided to face all of them fearlessly, which makes me know that Bella is a really thoughtful and considerate girl.

As a matter of fact, Bella was just an ordinary human girl who would grow old as time went by and die one day, but Edward was an immortal vampire who had an exceptional and unique strength of reading people’s minds. Actually, some people may wonder why Edward would fall in love with such a delicate human girl, while others may hold a doubtful attitude towards their love story. However, to my mind, I strongly believe that Bella and Edward can lead a happy life. About one thing I am absolutely positive, they can lead a happy life and they needs to confront with various of hardships and setbacks. But why am I so positive about their love story? Let me have an analysis!

Bella is a kindhearted and independent girl who never goes with tide. She always sticks to her own way of doing everything. On her first day to school, Edward came across with Bella, and at that moment Edward could not move his eyes on Bella at his first sight on her. I clearly know that it was Bella’s unique and special character that drew Edward’s attention. In Edward’s mind, Bella was a natural girl with a kind heart. After several days’ struggle, Edward could not prevent himself from caring about her and loving her though he knew perfectly well that it would be a fateful and deadly thing for a vampire to fall in love with a human girl. From this, it can be seemed that what a charismatic and glamorous girl Bella was.

When Edward said to Bella, “I don’t have the strength to stay away from you forever.” I know, Edward had already been loving Bella deeply.

When Bella answered “I’ll be with you forever, Edward.” I can realize their love has already been surpassed human in human’s innermost feelings.

When Edward said, “You don’t know how long I’ve waited for you, Bella” I know, Bella is the most suitable one for him, only with Bella can Edward gains the real happiness.

When Edward swore, “You’re my life now, Bella.” I think all the lovers will be overwhelmed by such impressive words at that moment, as well as I. I know, from then on, Edward would move heaven and earth to protect Bella. There is no doubt that Bella is happy when being with Edward.

To be honest, Twilight is the best romance novel that I’ve ever read. There is no much flourish in it, but there are lots of touching and thrilling plots between Edward and Bella. I still remember every time Bella was in danger, Edward could helped her out in time, which made Bella feel so grateful and become interested in him gradually.

There was a time when Bella was on her way home from a bookstore alone, suddenly a gang of ruffians molested her, Bella felt helpless and hopeless. Fortunately, Edward appeared as a hero and rescued the beauty, Bella. At that moment, I couldn’t help praising, that Edward was such a thoughtful gentleman who cares about the person he loves at any time. No wonder Bella would love him.

Then when Edward told Bella he had a super strength that he could read every person’s mind except Bella’s one. You can not imagine that, Bella’s first reaction to it was --- “Is there something wrong with me?” Hearing that, Edward smiled and said, “I tell you I can read minds, and you think there is something wrong with you.” At that time, Edward knew Bella was a kind girl indeed, who would not be worried and scared when hearing such unusual truth, but just try to find the mistakes of herself.

Once Edward took Bella to his home to meet his family members, instead of being afraid, Bella asked Edward what if his families didn’t like her. Edward was so surprise to hear that and said to Bella, “you are worried not because you’ll be in a house full of vampires, but because you think they won’t approve of you? ” Then, I know, Bella has never treated Edward as a different kind. May I ask, how can Edward refuse such a kind and lovely girl. When Edward took Bella to fly through the forest in his amazing speed, I think no more girls can refuse such a romantic man.

Bella pursued the true love belong to her bravely, while Edward was giving all his love to the one he loved. I know this is love.

All in all, romantic love always has a happy ending. When Bella went through life and death, when Edward experienced the cruel ordeal, seeing they were dancing romantically at last, I can say their love will be going on.

Title: The Little Prince

Author: Antoine de St-Exupery

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

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

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

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

小王子

作者:安托万-圣埃克苏佩里

主要人物:小王子、飞行员、玫瑰、狐狸、蛇等。

尽管我还没有童年,但我还是喜欢读童话故事。这些故事,伴随着我在我的旧时代,经常让我想起一些宝贵的经验和感觉,只属于儿童。今年夏天我复习了1940年出版的这类故事。它是由法国著名的童话作家,安托万de St Exupery,小王子。

像许多其他童话一样,小王子的轮廓也不是很复杂。故事的叙述者“我”是一名飞行员,他的飞机有问题,降落在Sahara。在这种情况下,飞行员使结识了小王子,来自另一个星球的小男孩,小行星B612。小王子已经逃离了他的小星球,因为他和他的星球上的一朵玫瑰发生了争吵。在这种情况下,他离开了自己的星球,并对一些邻近小行星进行了探测。

篇20:黑骏马的英语读后感

“Animals deserve our kindness, sympathy and understanding,” that is what Anna Sewell-the author of Black Beauty-wanted to convince her readers. Thanks to Sewell, I now think about the animal-human relationship from both the human and the animal’s point of view.

The inspiration for Anna Sewell’s novel was drawn from her own relationship with horses. Anna Sewell was born on March 20th, 1820 in Norfolk, England and was crippled while still very young. Due to her disability, she relied on horse-drawn carriages and grew to love horses as a result. She also became appalled by the careless and cruel treatment horses often received from humans and determined to write a book.. In the second year of work on the book, she was told that she had only eighteen months to live, but she persevered in order “to induce kindness, sympathy and an understanding [of the ] treatment of horses.” Five years later, she was still working on Black Beauty, her only book. Unfortunately, Sewell died a few months after publication and never learned of the book’s huge success. Black Beauty formed an impassioned plea for animal rights at a time when such a notion had been dismissed as ridiculous.

The novel portrayed the real condition of working horses living in Britain during the Victorian Era. In that time period, the wealthy thought that their horses were treated well because they never stepped into the stable. In order to call people’s attention to horses’ hard life, Sewell tells the story through the first-person narrative voice of a horse. This innovative personification of an animal made the book a real success. Readers heard the stories straight from the horse’s mouth, literally, as an animal spoke of extremes of joy and suffering. People were shocked by the truth exposed by the novel and changed their attitudes towards animals.

Sewell formed the novel with three kinds of characters: Black Beauty, Ginger and other farm animals. Through their different experiences, I saw similarly painful lives led by the animals. This method made the earnest appeal for animal rights become more and more persuasive.

As a domestic animal, Black Beauty was continuously sold from one family to another. Over the years Beauty enjoyed good masters but also endured mean ones. Sometimes, he was cared for and at other times tortured. In the end, everything turns out all right in a story that is so tender and yet meaningful. His story was so vivid that caught the readers’ heart. The novel brought people laughter and tears and also enlightened them to understand animals at the same time.

Animals cannot speak so understanding is significant to them. Once, for example, Beauty was drawing the carriage to a wooden bridge. The bridge was flooded out in the river and John, the groom, was not aware that it was cracked. But the quickly realized that something was wrong because of Beauty’s abnormal behavior. Momentarily, a man shouted to them, “Stop! Stop!…The bridge is broken in the middle. If you come across, you’ll fall in the river!” Beauty had saved John. However, if John had not tried to understand what Beauty wanted to tell him, there would definitely have been an accident. I learnt from the story that understanding animals is not only essential to them but is also beneficial to us ourselves.
