They always try their best to find the faults of others, to criticize others, what is hated most. Real islamic culture has been twisted, and what they present to others is more of a brutal, violent, radical, split. That is why a classic literature has been criticized .

+ 加入清单Pride and Prejudice is a novel written by the famous English writer, Jane Austen, who was the sixth children in a family of seven and was born in the village of steventon in Hampshire in 1775 and died of Addison’s disease in 1817. The book first published on 28 January 1813 by the bookseller Thomas Egerton who had also published Sense and Sensibility, the original version of the novel was written in 1796-1797 under the title First Impressions .
Pride and Prejudice is a love story, mainly tells the love between Elizabeth and Darcy. It divided into 2 volumes and is composed of 42 chapters altogether. The major characters are Mr. Darcy, A rich and proud young man. Elizabeth, the second eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet. Mr. Bingley , A rich young bachelor. Jane, the first daughter of Mr. and Mrs.Bennet. The story begin with Bingley’s arrival. One day when Mrs.Bennet hear Bingley has taken Netherfield, a house near her’s. She is so happy and arranged one of her five daughters marriage with him. At a ball, luckly, Bingley and Jane fall in love at the first sight. Darcy, a friend of Bingley’s , was attracted to Elizabeth, a lively and spirited girl. But Darcy greatly offends her by his supercilious behavior and this dislike is increased by Wickham, a dashing young militia officer of the unjust treatment he has met with at Darcys hands.
One day when Darcy and Bingley’s two sisters disgusted with the vulgarity of Mrs. Bennet and her two youngest daughters, effectively separated Bingley and Jane. Meanwhile, Collins, a cousin of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet, married charlotte, a friend of Elizabeth’s, for Elizabeth’s refuse to marry him. But One day Darcy send Elizabeth a letter, in which he justifies the separation of his friend Bingley and Jane and make it clear that Wickham is. So Elizabeth changed her opinions and ideas toward him. Once when Elizabeth visited her uncle and aunt in the north of England, she met Darcy there and witnessed his changes through series of behaviors, no longer pride and become gentle and attentive, all these made their marriage arranged, and they also suitably provided for Bingley and Jane’s reunited and engaged. The story ends with both their happy marriages.
My point of view towards the masterpiece of Jane Austen’s is that this novel reflects the English human sentiment of the end of 18th century and the early of 19th century under the circumstance of conservative,and tells us the difference ways and attitudes to marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet’s five daughters’. Thereby reveal the author herself attitude towards marriage, that is love and marriage based on money, property and social status is not perfect, but it is also stupid Without considering all of these. There, the author emphasize the importance of ideal marriage, meanwhile, to be opposed to love & marriage based on money or property and to be opposed to people’s laugh love & marriage off.
The author takes the affection/love as the cornerstone of ideal marriage between male and female. Elizabeth as the leading character in this novel, was born in the family of squireen’s, and is loved by Darcy. Darcy propose marriage to her in spite of difference in the possession of property and social status, but is refused byElizabeth for his pride , the novel demonstrate that if the pride of Darcy’s existed , there will be no love and also happy marriage between Elizabeth and he, it is really nice that Elizabeth witness the changes of Darcy’s through series of behavior in the following days.
Viewing that he is no longer pride and then eliminating her prejudice to him, finally engaged with him and leading a happy marriage. The author described that female is in pursuit of independent personality and equal right through several different attitudes of Elizabeth for Darcy’s propose marriage. Meanwhile, demonstrate Elizabeth’s independent understanding for a happy marriage. In this article, the writer described several unperfect marriages of Elizabeth’s sisters and close friends, aimed at making a sharp contrast with Elizabeth’s beatific marriage and revealed that marriage without love but base on social status and property actually is a kind of public tragedies. Humorous, ironical, polished language and real storyline is also occurred in this article.
篇3:百年孤独英语读后感

+ 加入清单"One hundred years of solitude" is known as "Latin American history of literature in the vision of the society". It is the representative work of gabriel Garcia marquez, is the representative work of Latin American magic realism literature. After reading, the book morbid alone, for a variety of abnormal personality, floating in my around, for a long time not to go.
The characters in the book, Mr ASHLEY boone, emperor, this is a diligent, pragmatic, creative people. But because hes fascination with science and knowledge, wrongly, alchemy, god copperplate picture... He was completely insane, so he is a lonely.
His wife Ursula is a woman of flashing mother all good quality. In my opinion, she is the family foundation. The whole book is her busy figure, this womans body with another kind of loneliness.
I think the book is the most sad figures boone was the second son of Mr LeiLiangNuo. He launched numerous armed uprising, but all failed. Fortunately, life is very big, escaped the ambush, assassination, and shot, stubbornly survived. But alive may be biggest torture to him. He became fascinated by doing small goldfish, kept on doing repeatedly, as for alchemy obsession.
The characters in the book is filled with loneliness. Perhaps this is the author wants to express to us, the family of autism has brought the whole family. Similarly, the feelings without communication, a lack of trust and understanding of family also symbolizes the society at that time. Perhaps the author is to express myself in the book of Latin American national unity together, to get rid of loneliness.
《百年孤独》被誉为“再现拉丁美洲历史社会图景的鸿篇之著”。它是加西亚·马尔克斯的代表作,也是拉丁美洲魔幻现实主义文学作品的代表作。读完,书中病态的孤独,形形色色的畸形人格,漂浮在我的四周,久而不去。
书中的人物霍·阿·布恩帝亚本是一个勤恳务实、富有创造力的人。但由于他错误地对科学和求知痴迷,炼金术,上帝铜版照片……他完全发了疯,所以他是个孤独者。
他的妻子乌苏拉是个闪烁着母亲一切美好品质的妇女。在我看来,她其实就是这个家族的地基。整部书都是她忙碌的身影,这个女人的身上拥有着另一种孤独感。
我想全书最悲哀的人物莫过于布恩帝亚的次子奥雷良诺了。他发动了无数次的武装起义,却都无果。所幸命很大,躲过了埋伏、暗杀以及枪决,顽强地活了下来。但活下来也许才是对他最大的折磨。他痴迷于做小金鱼,反复不停地做,就如同对于炼金术的痴迷。
书中的人物无不充斥着孤独感。这也许正是作者想要对我们表达的,这个家族的孤独性给整个家族带来了毁灭。同样,这个没有感情沟通,缺乏信任和了解的家族也象征了当时的社会。或许作者正以此书来表达自己对拉美民族共同团结,摆脱孤独的强烈愿望。

篇8:书虫系列英语读后感
全文共 895 字
+ 加入清单昨天,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。

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.

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.

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!”

As the prince growed up,he made a decision to explore other planets and leave his hometown,a planet which just one person lived in.When travelling in the other planets,he discovered that his rose is not the only one of its kind.There are abandunt kinds of roses in the garden,but he still held the opinoion that his rose is special "because it is she that I have watered; because it is she that I have put under the glass globe; because it is she that I have sheltered behind the screen" .

篇13:《追风筝的人》英语读后感

+ 加入清单I am convinced that few books are as good as this one. To be honest, I hadn’t maintained that this book would appeal me before I read it. However, I was absorbed in the book from the first chapter to the last one. Why this book has appealed to me that much? I asked myself. This book is not my type of reading for only romantic books could draw my attention successfully. Then I came into a conclusion that it is the friendship and familyship fascinated me.
To the world you are one person, but to the person who loves you, you are the world. Amir was Hassan’s world. Amir’s name had been the first word Hassan spoke. Hassan threatened brutal Assef for the sake of Amir. Hassan never failed to run the kite to please Amir. Hassan sacrificed himself for Amir’s house. These are more than a friend would do. Only those who loves you so much could challenge himself to do what Hassan did to Amir.To Hassan, Amir was not only a mere friend but a brother. He loved Amir more than anything else. Even after Amir betrayed him, he still told his son proudly“Agan Amir is my best friend”.Maybe for Hassan “for you, a thousand times over” has another meaning, which is not just kite running for Amir but he will do anything for Amir.
If Hassan could be described as an angel, then Amir was just a person. I did hate Amir for he watched Hassan be raped and did nothing, for he made Hassan leave his born-place, for he aimed Hassan with fruit(even though he actually tried to make himself get punished). Amir didn’t deserve what Hassan did to him. I thought his meanness caused Hassan’s tragedy. But after I finished the book, I realized it is not Hassan’s tragedy, it is Amir’s. For what he had done to Hassan, he had led a live with regret and suffered endless sleepless nights. His going back to Afghanistan is not only a journey physically but a journey to atonement. Hassan’s son, his nephew saved, Amir’s sin was finally washed. Like the life of circle, Amir ran kite for his miserable nephew.As Hassan did to him, he said “for you , a thousand times over” to Sohrab.Though the book doesn’t give us an accurate ending whether Sohrab came into life again. I am sure love can cure everything. Only when Sohrab lives a happy life as Hassan hoped can Amir’s sin washed up.
The friendship between Hassan and Amir moved me. I believe All the people who read it is going to be touched just as I am. This book does make me think the good and the bad ,what’s wrong and what’s right, the cruelty of war . Few books can exert an influence on people nowadays, this book sure does.

一个善良的小男孩,一个忧郁的小男孩,一个倔强的小男孩,这个小男孩就是《雾都孤儿》中的主人公奥利弗。
奥利弗是个孤儿,在济贫院中长大,因饥饿向厨师要粥喝而被送到棺材铺当学徒。受尽凌辱后逃到伦敦。在那儿,他误入贼窝,被费金指使行窃,作案时被抓住。失主布朗洛收养了他,但他又被女贼南希抓回,跟随赛克斯行窃,行窃失败,又被主人家收养。南希得知了奥利弗的身世,告知罗斯,因此被赛克斯杀害。最后,奥利弗依法继承父亲财产,盗窃团伙受到法律严惩。
《雾都孤儿》吸引我的不仅是它的故事情节,还给我带来了许多的启迪,其中最重要的一点是:我们每个人都要有爱心,都要乐于助人。我们生活中就有这样的例子。在2008年5.12大地震中,全国人民万众一心,众志成城:解放军叔叔不怕辛苦,日夜解救埋在废墟下的幸存者;街头的红十字采血车上,很多叔叔阿姨将自己的爱心奉献出来,用他们的鲜血挽救那些生命垂危的病人,这些充满爱心的鲜血汇成生命的长河;大批的志愿者赶赴灾区,献出自己的一份力;大批的物资从各地运送到灾区;小学生们也纷纷用零花钱为灾区捐款,一元钱的力量也许很小,只是杯水车薪,但汇集着无数爱心的无数个一元钱,它的力量却很大,灾区的人民一定能体会我们的爱心,感受到大家庭的温暖……这体现出了我们全国人民的爱心和我们乐于助人的精神。
对人民我们要有爱心,对动物植物我们也要有爱心。我们人类和动物植物是最亲密的伙伴,没有了它们,我们会觉得寂寞。我们要爱惜动物,爱惜一花一草,一树一木,这样,我们的世界才能更可爱更美好。
爱心是一朵花,一朵美丽奇妙的花;爱心是一首歌,一首焕发向上的歌;爱心是一股泉,一股清澈透亮的泉。让我们每个人都献出一点爱心,让世界变得更美好!

+ 加入清单《 Notre Dame cathedral》 is one known far and wide romantic faction strength which Victor Hugo writes . I take advantage of this summer vacation free time, read this great work.
Notre Dame cathedrals story, actually was one at that time social epic poem, since brimmed with really. Friendly. Beautiful, also the flow selfish desire and is false. Regardless of is good beautiful Asmelada ,or has the ugly semblance, Cacimodo with one pure mind, they represent the great amount the lower level populace which suppresses; Perhaps is sinister Coloud, he is appears by the theocracy face, all load bearing one kind of authors ponder.The author in this work, for with the clown, was beautifully friendly and wickedly does the best annotation, or take above three people as the example, the rebel Asmelada has the beautiful semblance and the chaste good mind, as well as pitiful destiny, but Cacimodo, he withstood destiny deceive nicely, the innermost feelings is his misery is graver, but Coloud maintained the benighted social rights and interests, he had brutally. Void mind and evil passion. Good person physique hateful, but the evil person actually says the appearance shore however, bright set off, social unfair manifest.
But the article result also is when the opposition society until criticism: All beautiful is good all swallows by the might and the evil, the lower level peoples weak strength in under the king power rule, in the benighted society, only can be reduced to ashes. Was palatial Notre Dame cathedral, how many world tragedy testimony once, in Hugo the novel, he as if had the life breath, he sheltered Asmelada ,exposed Coloud the crime, regret the populace attack the magnificent feat which dark actually heroically devoted……
Another the question which is worth pondering is: Who is the hero? Asmelada or Cacimodo?

They are in middle ages France, despotism sacrificial victim.
The entire story rich tragic color, the plot intense is moving, exciting.

+ 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。

篇19:《童年》英语读后感
全文共 6166 字
+ 加入清单After reading this book I was shocked and moved by the little boy in the story. The writer let me feel the braveness and kindness in the book.
First, I want to introduce the writer to you. The writer is Maksim Gorky (18681936) He is the former Soviet Union proletarian writer, the founder of socialist realism literature. He was poor, his father died when he was 11-year-old .He and working people shared their fate, and personal experience of capitalist. Gorky is not only a great writer, but also an outstanding community activist. He had set up the Soviet Writers Association, and presided over a congress of the Soviet Union .Gorkys works began to be introduced to China since 1907. His outstanding literary works and books bands in the world-off Class common wealth.
There are four main characters in the story. They are Alexis, his mother Varia, his grandfather and his grandmother. They are totally different.
His mother is a poor but kind woman. Her little son died when he was born. Her husband was died too. Then she married with another man ,but the man always maltreats her.
His grandmother was also a kind woman. She brought up Alexis and gave courage and kindness to Alexis. But unfortunately, his husband always hit her and she died because of illness at last.
His grandfather was a stingy and fierce man. He always maltreats his wife and Alexis. He just loved his money.
The protagonist of this novel was a boy named Alexis. His father died when he was only 3 years old. He followed his mother and came to her motherhome. His grandfather is a violent man. His two uncles are also selfish. His grandfather often hit his wife and his grandson. Little Alexis was maltreated in the family and grew up gradually. However, his grandmother is a kind woman. She is the warm sun of Alexis, she tried her best to protect Alexis. His two uncles wants to get his fathermoney and always fight with their father. The old couple were very disappointed with their son. Finally, the old man decided to separate with them. He sold the old house and bought another home in the city. At that time , his mother came home and married with another man and had a little boy. His stepfather often maltreats his wife and disappeared some days later. He grandfather wanted to earn more money and sold the house. He lent the money to others in order to get more interest and rented a small room to live. He got more and more stingy and did not give any money to his wife. Alexis and his grandmother have to make money by themselves. After some days, his mother got ill and his grandmother was also unhealthy. Unfortunately, his mother died at last. He lost his dear mother. His grandfather did not want to bring him up and let him get out of the home to live in the society by himself. Then he left the home, it also means that his childhood was over.
Personal understanding:
After reading this novel, I can not calm down for a long time. He was so young and lives in such a cold family. He almost never gets the love form his parents. In fact ,the writer wanted to express himself through Alexis. Alexis was like himself. Gorky expressed his childhood through Alexis. This book makes me realize these ugly people at that time. If we with compare our childhood with Gorkys, we would think his childhood is too pathetic.
I want to express my feeling to Alexis. He was young and he did not receive good education. He lived with the fights and quarrels of his families. He was unlucky but he still knew how to be a good person. We are so lucky to live in a warm family. But most of us are not satisfied with it and we want more. We do not know how to cherish the things we have. We often ask for everything from our parents and depend them too much. If someone bully us outside, our parents will encourage us, but for Alexis, nobody will help him and his grandfather even maltreats him. What a poor boy he is. Now, we should realize that we should depend on ourselves and cherish our families. Facing the difficulties by ourselves and try to be confident to life. There must be something that make us despairing, however we should learn form the author and look for the happiness from the pain and look for the hope from the despair. Try to be a kind and optimistic person, never lose confidence. Our future will be bright.
The next aspect in the novel is the old man, the grandfather of Alexis. What a selfish man he is. Alexis was his grandson, he did not care about him but maltreat him. His wife born three children for him but he did not love her at all. He just love his money. His character represented many people at that time. And the author wanted to satirize these people by this character. He was an important character in this novel and an important person for Alexis. But he did not be responsible for Alexis. Alexis was so unlucky to have such a bad grandfather. And his grandmother was so unlucky to have such a violent husband.
The most kind and pitiful person was Alexisgrandmother. She was the most attractive woman in the literal history of Russia. She did not live a happy day in her whole life. She was so industrious and simple, maybe she just want a simple life. She just want her children could be happy and her husband could love her even did not maltreat her. But her simple dream did not come true. It was unfair for such a kind woman. She lived an unhappy life everyday, but she still love her grandson. She represented these industrious woman at that time. She gave her love to Alexis and hold the broken family. She was so tried everyday with the housework and the maltreatment. I sympathize her very much. She was moved by those money earned by Alexis and Alexis was the hope to her. They encouraged each other to live a bright life.
After reading this book, I think the most important thing is to be strong. Gorky was strong enough to grow up in such a bad environment and became an excellent writer. The society is developing fast but the people are becoming fragile. We must experience some difficulties in our life. After reading the last page , Alexiss childhood was over , there is a different life waiting for him.
Good luck to him. Good luck to everyone.
篇20:《德伯家的苔丝》英语读后感
全文共 4299 字
+ 加入清单She was seduced by a so-called gentleman—Alec, and from then on her life totally changed from this loss of innocence. People looked down on her and respected her no more. Actually she did nothing wrong because before she was seduced she knew nothing of men. She was just a girl when she first met that terrible man.
She was forced by the gossips and the church to blame herself for this accident, so she thought she deserved nothing good. In order to get rid of the past she decided to go to a distant dairy farm but was still saying to herself that she was wrong. Maybe God didn’t aGREe with that, because the Lord gave her someone she loved with her whole heart and life—Angel Chare. Angel popped the question to her but she refused him without saying why. She said she loved him deeply and perhaps no one in the world could love him more than she did but she could not marry him for some unspoken reason. Angel wasn’t satisfied with this vague answer and did his best to win Tess. Somehow she agreed and they soon fixed the wedding day. Soon after their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked for Tess’s forgiveness. Tess was not at all angry and forgave Angel at once; in fact she was rather happy and excited for she also had things to confess.
She sat and told everything to Angel, hoping he would forgive her as he was forgiven but she was wrong. She was not forgiven, not as she thought she was. The woman pays.
Without Angel’s love, nothing meant anything to her. The result wasn’t important now. Tess was arrested for her murder of that so-called gentleman. Why? She still loved Angel and when he finally went back to her and asked for HER forgiveness, after he reGREtted what he had done unfair to Tess, she was desperate. That was too late—Alec had always told Tess that Angel would never come back so he won Tess’s trust. Unluckily Angel did come back and found Tess.! Everything was too late!
Tess was deceived and she lost Angel for the second time! The strengh of her love was so strong that she had forgotten the difference between right and wrong. Before that she had done nothing wrong but when she killed Alec, everything really changed! She became a criminal! How could it be? She was as pure and innocent as the good wife in the Bible. Her whole character was honest and faithful. Angel figured out at last that a person should be judged not only on what he has done but also on what he wanted to do!
Tess didn’t want to be seduced by man and she had no power to defend herself so she lost her innocence and that’s all! Angel also did the wrong thing and it was even more serious than Tess’s crime but HE was not blamed for it. Why it is always the woman who pays? Why they are always hurt? Why was Tess’s girlish purity lost? Why does the wrong man take the wrong woman? Why do the bad often ruin the good? Why is beauty damaged by ugliness? Women are too weak! Thousands of years of history have shown us that women have always been treated unfairly!
In old China there was a culture, which didn’t think of women as human beings. If you asked one if he was the oldest in his family, he would probably answer “the oldest one” even if he had some elder sisters. If you asked why then he would say, “Ha, they are not included!”
People gave birth to many girls in order to have only one boy to keep the family name going. They thought girls had no use for the family. They would be married and go to live with their husbands’ home and be their wives some day sooner or later. So they were extremely hard on girls.
Girls should be hard working, faithful, loyal, intelligent, and virtuous and the most important thing was she must be a maiden! If her husband was the first man who touched her then she was a good girl, a good wife no matter how she thought. If she wasn’t, then she would gain a very bad reputation and nobody would dare to go near her. What about men? People did not care whether he was an experienced man or not, nor did they care about his character. They thought man equals power and power equals rights…
Now let’s not be so bitter. Nowadays women’s situations have become much better. Some are because of the change of society and some are because of civilization. Just let those poor painful women like TESS be just a memory.
