424《鲁滨逊漂流记》经典小说读后感范本
全文共 498 字
+ 加入清单最近,我读了一篇叫《鲁滨孙漂流记》的长篇小说。故事中的主人公鲁滨孙不畏艰险、正视现实、乐观向上、顽强生存的精神令我深深的折服,且颇有感悟。
有一个好冒险的人名叫鲁滨孙。他在一次航海冒险中遇上了大风,船翻了,只有他孤身一人存活了下来,漂流到了一座荒无人烟的小岛上。他并没有紧张,战胜了重重困难,在孤岛上生活了二十八年。天赐良机,鲁滨孙终于获救,回到了英国。
鲁滨孙的形象在我的脑海里日益高大起来,因为我觉得,自己的性格和胆量实在与他相差太多了。
我清楚地记得,那是星期四的晚上,爸爸出去工作,妈妈出去洗头,把我一个人留在家里。电视看的正起劲时,门外突然传来了一阵“咚咚”声,我心想:一定是妈妈回来了,急忙跑去开门。透过猫眼一看,竟然是一个高大、凶神恶煞的中年男子,还打扮成一副小偷的样子。我慌了,马上把门锁了,用吃奶的速度跑到床铺上,把棉被盖在身上。我被吓出了一身冷汗,连动都不敢动。
记忆最犹新的还是那次爬上。暑假,我与爸爸去爬黄山。刚到半山腰,就累的上气不接下气,最后还是让爸爸背上去的呢!
困难像弹簧,你强它就弱,你弱它就强。我们都应该像鲁滨孙那样对生活充满希望,追求自由,用自己的实际行动去完成梦想。

篇1:小说《北京折叠》读后感
全文共 1546 字
+ 加入清单《北京折叠》 中构建了一个不同空间、不同阶层的北京。
由于人口太多,等级分化,北京分为三个空间。第一空间,五百万人口,生存时间,清晨六点,到第二天清晨六点。翻转后,大地的另一面是第二第三空间。第二空间有两千五百万人口,生存时间是清晨六点到晚上十点。第三空间有五千万人,生存时间从晚上10点到第二天6点。48小时为一个周期,除非特殊许可,不可以跨越空间,逮到会被殴打,拘留,重罚。
毕竟是短篇小说,总共也就2.5万字的样子。可是越短,往往要越凝练。全文自然没有废话,一开始,说清时间“清晨4:50”主人公老刀在步行街出现,着急找一个人。因为,他要从第三空间偷偷去第一空间给人送信,找偷偷去过的人,问个路。要求送信的是第二空间的研究生,去第一空间实习,遇见了一个美人。
因为20万的好处,老刀不听劝阻,下决心铤而走险。作为50岁的老光棍,唯一的念想,就是收养的女儿能够有机会去上幼儿园。他每天辛苦工作,忍着饿不吃早饭,这样省下来的钱也就够两个月幼儿园费用。
结果不说了,有兴趣自己看,只说一下感想:
到了第一空间,老刀才发现,日出是那么的美。自己的生活里,看到的太阳一直是黄色, 第二空间看到太阳是黄色,而那一天,他才见到了很少见到的,蓝天白云,就把50岁的老刀看的入了神——这就是天堂。
当然,他去过第二空间,宽阔的街道,更多的车辆,空间转换时的优雅……尽管做了思想准备,朋友也提醒了:去了,回来只会觉得自己活得很操蛋。可是第一空间的各种景象依旧让老刀目瞪口呆。
自己从小就生活在满地的垃圾,拥堵的小巷,衣着褴褛的人们,斤斤计较,说话大声嚷嚷的居民,自己住的胶囊处所……用速度换生命,拼命干活挣一点存活的钱。仅仅是活着,没有质量可言。不过,不去和别人世界对比,一辈子也就窝窝囊囊这么过来了——这就是地狱。
第一空间的人再不济,也总是能够留下来,找个事情做。出生决定了很多事情,可以不用太辛苦,可以获得优异的生活条件,可以享受24小时的美好生活,呼吸更好的空气。
第一空间的人数正好占了总人口25%,符合二八理论,这个世界总是20%的人占据着80%的资源。
当然,想要改变,也不是绝对不可能。需要送信的研究生去过第一空间实习,也许会有机会留在那里。
老葛一眼就看出老刀从第三空间来,因为裤子的牌子只有那里有卖,而自己小时候经常穿。对,他也来自底层,靠着上军校,努力学习,研究,升值,专业……最后虽然留下做了蓝领的活,但是能够混迹于第一空间的,都是牛人。
这世界是不公平的,不论哪个时代。我们说,时间最公平,给了我们每天24小时。看看,好好珍惜吧,小说里,大家的时间居然都是不一样的。
唯一相同的,是烦恼。
这点倒是很公平,第一空间里,收信美女不开心,她不爱老头,哦,不,那是她老公,年龄差有点大,爱上研究生,又不会有未来,还抱着一丝幻想,希望老刀不要说出实情。
姑娘的老公有烦恼,自己太太那么年轻,不看紧点,麻烦不断,所以盯上老刀了。
就连负责启动城市转换的白发老者,依旧有满肚子心思:大到机器智能与人工就业之间的平衡,小到,发言稿来不及,需要延迟城市转换。
虽然很多人网评在责怪作者,说视野频发,想象力混乱,中间介绍缺少逻辑性,对于贫富两个阶层态度暧昧……可是,你能,你就写啊!国际性的奖,别人都是瞎颁的吗?作为短篇小说,我们不能要求太多。
也许,这不是科幻,未来的城市人口太多,真的会这么折叠。
也许,这不是科幻,只是暗示着现实社会的阶层状况。每个国家,都有着天堂富人区,以及地域穷人区。
也许,这不是科幻,只是特殊翻译的神学作品。那只能生活在黑暗里的肮脏的第三空间,不就是佛教里的地狱吗?地基就更厚重的高高在上的第一空间,就是天堂,只不过,住了六根并未清静的人。
也许,你看了,会有不同的注解,谁知道呢?
折叠的是北京,扭曲的是人心。
篇2:夏至未至小说郭敬明读后感
全文共 1497 字
+ 加入清单1.
与两年不见的友人在北京路吃罢晚饭后,一个人闲逛到了书店。最后,鬼使神差,买了一本郭敬明的《夏至未至》。其实,我也并没有那么讨厌他,我觉得你应该也一样,因为,除了比你成功,他也并没有做过什么实际意义上亏欠我们的事——这样一段话,其实也可以放在杨幂身上。不过,我还是要建议杨幂换一个包装团队,因为,不是在每个电影里都客串一下混个脸熟,观众就会日久生情喜欢上你;相反,审美疲劳这件事对嫩牛五方也是适用的,这也是为什么肯德基一而再再而三推出骗钱新品的原因。
我们还是回到郭敬明吧。
我之所以想看那本书,是因为书名《夏至未至》真是一个令人喜欢的名字。并且,如果我没记错的话,那个时候的郭敬明确实还在写东西,带着他年少时因为不合群而孤僻敏感的心在写东西。那个时候的他,不是万人迷;那个时候的他是如此没有自信,以致于所有青春年少里的美好时光都只能在他的笔下才得以实现。
我年少时,反倒并没有多想看他文字的念头。我在他的《岛》停刊之后很久,才看到了里面那篇《光线消失的井池》,那真是一篇写得很好的短篇,主角依旧带着那个时候郭敬明独有的细腻、敏感和莫名感伤的影子。其实,回看他早期的作品,你会发现那个时候他作品中的男生大多数都这样,《夏至未至》里,开篇对于傅小司和陆之昂的友情描写,几乎都可以让你闻到两个男生间独有的暧昧气息。也许就在书中这样一个夏天,郭敬明曾经对于一个男孩,报以同样的好感。这段感情在那个年代注定没有任何结果,于是,这个男孩就被留在了书里,被永远留在书中的那个夏天里。
2.
但愿他可以吻我。
女孩,你那个时候一定是这么想的。
但是故事的最后,你只在郭敬明的小说里找到了自己的影子,因为,那个男孩并没有吻你。
其实,你那时候迷恋的“万人迷”男孩,也许在十年后的今天,变成了又挫又令人难过的可怜人。只有你,当年怀着依恋并且孤身努力对抗命运的你,最终站在了这个男生的肩上。其实这不难想象,失意有时在某种层面上也算是好事,最好的例子就是当今的“青春小说大亨”郭敬明以及十年不败的流行天王周杰伦先生。他们,都是从自卑走过来的。以自己的孤单去对抗命运,最终过得比那时未正脸看你之人好,也算是一种报复。只是,这种报复,是孤单、没有退路并充满绝望意味的。
因为,无论是当时还是现在,那个男生,最后都没有吻你。他们被留在了那个夏天,那个十年前你还年少时,知了和蝉鸣不间歇的夏天。这个夏天如此固执地留在你心里,好像每一次你翻出来再看,都还可以闻到那个时候的香樟树香味。只有在那个夏天,男孩们还是完美的,他们穿着白衬衫,浅浅的独特汗味,好像存在就是为了吸引你。也许,这个就是在后来你“一个人的恋爱”前,其他人并不知道的故事。你喜欢的,只是被永远留在夏天的男孩,他们像是平行世界中的一个临界点,一直留在那里。
3.
当时的你,也曾以为自己会一辈子记住这个夏天。
但后来,这个夏天还是过去了。
同样的,在郭敬明《夏至未至》再版时,他自己写了再版序,里面告诉读者,那些发生在2004年夏天的故事,是怎样慢慢慢慢用十年时间在他的心里渐渐变淡。故事总是这样的,九把刀借着电影里陈妍希的嘴也告诉我们:人生,本来就有很多事情是徒劳无功的。大脑这个时候只是做了一个好心人,把认为我们都不需要的记忆,悄悄删去。
这之后的你们,慢慢踏前,学会更加理性去面对这个世界;年少时的依恋,像是贴了过久的创可贴,慢慢失去了粘性,等到它脱落时,我们就发现,伤疤原来早就已经好了。你拼命想要记住的人,往往属于另外一个世界。故事的结尾,那个一直与你毫无关联的男孩,那个在你心中曾与你恋爱了半个世纪的男孩,只能被永远留在了那个夏天。
那个夏天,最后就变成了两个字。
那就是,秘密。
篇3:《水浒传》小说读后感怎么写
全文共 348 字
+ 加入清单《水浒传》是中国四大名著之一,全书描写了北宋末年以宋江为首的108位好汉在深山起义,由盛转衰,曲终人亡的故事。
书中有忠义两全的宋江,性格刚烈的武松,见义勇为的鲁智深,还有足智多谋的吴用,他们在我眼里都是忠义的化身。
我也很欣赏李逵,但李逵他颇有些拗,遇事不分青红皂白,动不动就发火,总是和人打架,给宋江等人惹事生非,但是他身上有股愿意为兄弟两肋插刀的精神,愿意为自己的兄弟豁出性命,就是这种精神使我大为感动。
书中我更欣赏的是吴用,足智多谋,他曾为晁盖献计,智取生辰纲,用药酒麻醉了青面兽杨凌,巧妙地夺取了北京大名府梁中书送给蔡太师庆贺生辰的十万贯金银珠宝,用计劫了法场,救了宋江、戴宗。我要向吴用学习,做一个聪明的人。
读了这本书,使我非常敬佩梁山好汉,也使我懂了很多道理,这真是一本百看不厌的好书。
篇4:夏洛的网英文读后感
全文共 1556 字
+ 加入清单A piggy named Wilbur and a spider named Charlotte became friend. The future of this poor piggy is a delicious course of the Christmas feast. Though ever considering escaping, yet after all he is only a pig. While Charlotte--although be viewed as small and insignificant--said, "Let me help you!" Whereupon she used her silk to weave words such as "Some Pig" and "Terrific" in her web, which are regarded as a marvel by human beings. Those marvelous words alter Wilburs destiny, and finally earned him a happy and peace future. Nevertheless, at that moment, the life of Charlotte almost completed its span...
The most impressive episode of this book is the notable friendship between Charlotte and Wilbur. A spider is a threat to a piggy at first glance, but loneliness suddenly makes Wilbur be familiar with Charlotte and surprisingly he found that this spider is extraordinary warmhearted.
What impressed us deeply is the words "You never die, Ill save you!"by Charlotte when Wilbur was wailing "I dont wanna die! I dont!" To fulfill her promise, Charlotte devoted all her lifetime and asked no rewards, until the moment she died.
Such kind of friendship is pure and clean, Only leaving the selfless love and pure kindness. When this sort of emotion has already been lacked seriously in contemporary society, this story undoubtedly moves the readers. Maybe every reader envies that Charlotte has a Wilbur, and Wilbur has a Charlotte.
The word "Goodbye" has already gone with the wind, accompanied by her silk, only leaving a Charlottes web in everyones heart.
篇5:摆渡人小说读后感
全文共 1631 字
+ 加入清单断断续续用了4个晚上看完这本书,雨儿写作业的时候我安静地看,雨儿睡了我舒坦地看。这是一本故事情节比较简单的小说,15岁的迪伦在去看望父亲的途上遭遇车祸,在她灵魂出窍的那一刻时间静止了,她走入另外一个世界,遇到她灵魂的摆渡人(类似中国的黑白无常)崔斯坦,在摆渡人引领她到另一个世界的途中(类似到奈何桥的那段路),两个看似年龄相仿的人之间产生了爱情。迪伦到了她的世界后发现深深地爱崔斯坦,于是冒着魂飞魄散的危险,又返回到来时的荒原去寻找崔斯坦,然后,然后如何自己去看吧。
看完这本书我最大的感触有三个:
第一,十五岁的爱情
这个坚强、勇敢,又有些另类的女孩只有15岁,爱情降临在她身上,她清楚地明白自己内心的感受,她明确地知道自己想要的什么,她是一个有思想独立的女孩儿。在中国,这种情况叫早恋,要被学校和家长严令制止的。早恋犹如洪水猛兽,防火防盗防早恋是普遍中高学生家长的心态。这代家长大部分是70后,他们并不是不开明,他们大都也认同孩子在这个时期对异性产生好感是正常现象,他们也理解那种懵懵懂懂、美妙的感觉,但是谁又愿意让自己的孩子去尝试而不加以阻拦呢?如果每个青春期的孩子都像迪伦这样有主见、有思想,知道什么事情可以做什么事情不可以做,那我们还担心什么呢?怎样在适当的时候给孩子灌输正确的爱情观是关键。比如孩子第一次跟你探讨班里的八卦新闻时,你不要谈虎色变,轻描淡写地嘻哈过去,之后告诉她什么样的男孩子是好的,什么的品质是坏的。再比如孩子第一次带着羞涩告诉你她喜欢的男生时,你也不要大惊失色,不如跟她一起讨论讨论喜欢这个男生什么,谈谈如何把自己变成更优秀的人,让喜欢的男生也喜欢自己。给予孩子足够的安全感和爱,细心关注、正确引导,我们也可以相信十五岁爱情来的时候他们可以应付得来。
我十六岁第一次喜欢一个人,如果我有迪伦一半的坚定、执着和内省,我想我的人生就不会有遗憾了!
第二, 规则是用来打破的
如果迪伦不去尝试着打破规则,她就回不到荒原,找不到日夜思念的崔斯坦。如果崔斯坦不突破长此以来既定的或者是自己给自己订的规则,他也不可能跟着迪伦回到现实的世界。永远都不要停止探索和尝试的机会,特别是当你的内心有种强烈的声音在告诉你必须去努力的时候,一定一定要抛弃所有的顾虑,就当是最后一搏,鼓足所有的勇气推开阻挡在前面的门,或许不用你竭尽全力,只需轻轻一推就进入了另一个自己想要的世界。不肯尝试,一开始你就输了,别等什么都错过,到头来留给自己的只有懊悔。
第三,人是否有灵魂,谁是你灵魂的摆渡?
我相信人是有灵魂的,灵魂附着在肉体上才能称之为人。灵魂或许真的是克莱儿笔下的荒原上的另一个迪伦,我有过类似的经历。那大概是在2005年的夏天,老骆刚从国外回来,我俩在能人居吃火锅,当时我背后有个空调直吹着我的后背,前面又是滚烫的火锅,烤的我特别难受,我站起来打算出去透透气,刚走出4、5步就晕过去了。当时就像电视换频道一样,立刻切入到一个有山有水的场景,一个10岁左右的漂亮男孩儿拉着我的手,跟说:跟我走吧,我带你去一个好玩儿的地方。正当我要跟他走的时候,我听见老骆近似声嘶力竭地叫我:你怎么了,你怎么了?之前的画面也随之消失了。人的灵魂或许真的是在另一个世界的另外的一个自己,所以人死了之后只是生着的人痛苦,而自己没心没肺地又开始了另一段旅程。不管在哪一段旅程中真的会有这样的摆渡人引领我们吗?引领我们的究竟是谁?其实谁都不是,是自己强大的潜意识,是不被自己察觉的内心。可是忙碌、焦虑、欲望等等常常蒙蔽了自己的内心,让我们没有时间停下来反思反思我到底在想什么,我到底要怎样的生活?夜深人静的时候听听内心都跟我谈了些什么?人生很短,我们不要再浪费时间了,去做灵魂想让你做的事情。
《摆渡人》虽没有宣传的那么好,更称不上是一本史诗般的故事,但能引发思考并感悟出些道理就不失为一本好的小说。
当我们直面生存、死亡和爱,哪一个会是最终的选择?如果生命进入再次的轮回,你又愿意为此付出怎样的代价?
篇6:《水浒传》长篇小说个人读后感
全文共 517 字
+ 加入清单忠,是对自己的祖国,对自己身边的亲人,朋友尽心竭力。宋江在种种威逼利诱之下,仍然对自己的祖国忠心耿耿,这就是忠;林冲的妻子在林冲被逼上梁山之后,对高俅之子侮辱,宁死不屈,最终上吊自尽,这也是忠。
义,包括了两个方面:一百零八个好汉为兄弟朋友赴汤蹈火,两肋插刀,这是义;为人民除暴安良,出生入死,也是义。要无愧于“义”字,要有相当的勇气,甚至要有一命换一命的决心。
能做到“义”的人,就是一个精神高尚的人。古今中外有多少英雄好汉,舍生取义。难道是他们不怕死吗?他们为了“义”字,为了真理就可以奋不顾身了。一个不信奉“义”字的人,是不会理解这些的。
除了敬佩故事中体现的忠、义二字之外,我对故事中的一些情景还略感不仁。武松,他为兄报仇,杀了嫂嫂与西门庆;还有他血溅鸳鸯楼,把气撒到了别人身上,连看马的也不放过……毕竟是一条人命,人的生命是多么宝贵啊,即使他嫂嫂做了出轨的事情,也不必用性命以偿吧。还有那看马的老头与武松无怨无仇,有这样滥杀无辜的必要吗?
故事里体现的忠、义二字固然可歌可泣,但是,在现在的法制社会里,像武松那样凡事用武力解决的方法是不可取的。因此,由于时代的变迁,我们只能用欣赏的角度去看这本书,万万不可盲目地学习其中的处事方法。

篇9:追风筝的人英文读后感
全文共 3164 字
+ 加入清单This is a wonderful, beautiful epic of a novel. Set in Afghanistan and the United States between the 1970s to the present day, it is a heartbreaking tale of a young boy, Amir, and his best friend who are torn apart. This is a classic word-of-mouth novel and is sure to become as universally loved as The God of Small Things and The Glass Palace.
Twelve year old Amir is desperate to win the approval of his father Baba, one of the richest and most respected merchants in Kabul. He has failed to do so through academia or brawn, but the one area where they connect is the annual kite fighting tournament. Amir is determined not just to win the competition but to run the last kite and bring it home triumphantly, to prove to his father that he has the makings of a man. His loyal friend Hassan is the best kite runner that Amir has ever seen, and he promises to help him - for Hassan always helps Amir out of trouble. But Hassan is a Shia Muslim and this is 1970s Afghanistan. Hassan is taunted and jeered at by Amirs school friends; he is merely a servant living in a shack at the back of Amirs house. So why does Amir feel such envy towards his friend? Then, what happens to Hassan on the afternoon of the tournament is to shatter all their lives, and define their futures.
The Kite Runner of Khaled Hosseinis deeply moving fiction debut is an illiterate Afghan boy with an uncanny instinct for predicting exactly where a downed kite will land. Growing up in the city of Kabul in the early 1970s, Hassan was narrator Amirs closest friend even though the loyal 11-year-old with "a face like a Chinese doll" was the son of Amirs fathers servant and a member of Afghanistans despised Hazara minority. But in 1975, on the day of Kabuls annual kite-fighting tournament, something unspeakable happened between the two boys.
Narrated by Amir, a 40-year-old novelist living in California, The Kite Runner tells the gripping story of a boyhood friendship destroyed by jealousy, fear, and the kind of ruthless evil that transcends mere politics. Running parallel to this personal narrative of loss and redemption is the story of modern Afghanistan and of Amirs equally guilt-ridden relationship with the war-torn city of his birth. The first Afghan novel to be written in English, The Kite Runner begins in the final days of King Zahir Shahs 40-year reign and traces the countrys fall from a secluded oasis to a tank-strewn battlefield controlled by the Russians and then the trigger-happy Taliban. When Amir returns to Kabul to rescue Hassans orphaned child, the personal and the political get tangled together in a plot that is as suspenseful as it is taut with feeling.
The son of an Afghan diplomat whose family received political asylum in the United States in 1980, Hosseini combines the unflinching realism of a war correspondent with the satisfying emotional pull of master storytellers such as Rohinton Mistry. Like the kite that is its central image, the story line of this mesmerizing first novel occasionally dips and seems almost to dive to the ground. But Hosseini ultimately keeps everything airborne until his heartrending conclusion in an American picnic park.
篇10:小说人民的名义读后感
全文共 605 字
+ 加入清单近期,一部电视剧《人民的名义》火遍大江南北,同事、朋友在一起聊天都聚焦到了这部电视剧上,惹得我禁不住想看一看这部片子究竟讲了怎样一个故事,无奈家中电视向来被姑娘霸占,我又是个好读书的人,便把周先生的这本书下载下来一睹为快。
断断续续利用两天的时间把这本书看完了,书不是很长,故事也不是很复杂,读到一半,我便能大致猜到剧情,但还是继续读完了整本书。仔细想来,我入党已有十年,加入公务员队伍也已有八年之久,对于腐败,一直觉得是离自己很遥远的事,近两年来,随着中央反腐的力度和决心越来越大,数不清的大大小小的官员也随之落马,在山西这个重灾区,更是有数位省部级领导落马了,我却从未像今天这样思考过这个问题,我们的党是否为人民的党,我们的权力是否为人民服务,在纷繁复杂的今天,物欲横流,人们都被欲望冲昏了头脑,又有多少党员干部能记得当年入党时说过的誓言,又有多少在位者能记得当年刚参加工作时的一腔热情呢?而如果有一天,我能站在更高的地方,我是否能保持一颗真心去真正行使好手中的权力呢?
对于我们这一代人,处在一个尴尬的时代,“钱不是万能的,没有钱却是万万不能的”,在这样的时候,我想,自己需要的,是继续不断修炼,争取做到无愧于心,无愧于党,无愧于人民,或许,在将来的某一天,我可以自豪地说,我心中那一点自私的想法,那不纯洁的想法,那不高尚的想法,在不断磨砺自己心性的过程中,化为乌有,而我拥有了一颗平静的心,一个平静的灵魂。
篇11:《简爱》小说800字读后感
全文共 783 字

简爱是一个小女子的姓名。她的日子与咱们这些孩子的日子几乎便是大相径庭。由于爸爸妈妈双亡,她只好住在舅舅家。可是不过多久,爱她的舅舅逝世了,她成了一个剩余的人。暴虐的舅妈不光让她不停地做家务,还让简爱去伺候她的那个被宠坏的表哥,因而,她常常遭到优待。后来,她的舅妈乃至是把她送到了女子学院,扔掉了简爱这个“包袱”。可是简爱很刚强,她靠自己的才调找到了一份很好的作业。她教得非常超卓,得到了别人的欣赏,可是,令人意想不到的工作发生了。
“我快要疯了!怎样会这样,怎样会这样?”这是简爱在文中所说的一句话。你听了后或许会不明白,简爱她究竟怎样了?让我来告知你吧,简爱的爱人在与她进行婚礼的时分,被别人揭露他本来有一个疯妻子!读到这儿,我的心中泛起了一股怜惜心,简爱是多么不幸!简爱,我怜惜你!我刻不容缓地往下看:“可是,简爱她却忍耐住了,她来到别的一个城市,与命运之神持续搏斗着……”

我却盘桓在尘世外
没有死的理由更没有活的欲望
在决定自己了结一生时
你们的到访,惊艳了我卑微的灵魂
美丽的外表下是惊恐的逃避
旧情的纠缠,经济的盘剥
引发暴力夺命
突如其来的厄运将你们逼入绝境
我凭借超人的数学逻辑
为自己挖好了坟墓
义无反顾地走进自己铺设的去路
引领你们开始摆脱厄运开始新的幸福生活

献身给我的至爱
微笑着离开
不,不,不

数学天才遭遇物理天才
昔日同窗将真相剥茧抽丝般呈现
所有的逻辑付诸东流
却换回你们不堪承受的负累
一起陷落沉沦
我在悲苦的嘶吼中
呕出泣血的灵魂
篇15:西游记经典小说读后感范本
全文共 1099 字
+ 加入清单小时候,每天幼儿园放学,我总是第一个抓起书包,迫不及待地奔出校园。到家之后,把书包往沙发上一扔,就打开电视,嘴里还念叨着:“完蛋了完蛋了,今天太迟了!《西游记》要开始了!”当打开电视,听到那一句熟悉的“猴哥,猴哥,你真了不得”后,我才松了一口气:“还好还好,今天总算没有迟到!”
很小的时候我就很喜欢西游记。书架上那本厚厚的《西游记》,已经被我翻了不下三遍了。《西游记》塑造了四个鲜明的人物形象:唐僧——诚心向佛、顽固执着,孙悟空——正义大胆、本领高超是妖怪们的克星,猪八戒——贪财好色,但又不缺乏善心,沙僧——心地善良、安于天命。这四个人物形象各有特点,性格各不相同,恰好形成了鲜明的对比,这使我不得不佩服作者写作技艺的高超,也许作者善于刻画人物形象便是他的精妙之处。我喜欢总冤枉人但一心向善的唐三藏,我喜欢愣头愣脑整天憨憨的猪八戒,我还喜欢一心护师任劳任怨的沙和尚。不过我最喜欢的,还是保护师傅斩妖除魔的孙行者。
“俺老孙来也,快还我师傅来!”这句话在书中出现的次数最多,几乎成了孙悟空的口头禅。孙悟空是唐僧的大徒弟,他长着毛脸雷公嘴的相貌,长着一双能识破妖魔诡计的火眼金睛,有着七十二般变化。而最厉害的,还是他使的一根如意金箍棒。孙悟空刚开始十分顽劣,但经过十四年的的磨难,最终修成正果,成为“斗战胜佛”。孙悟空不仅有着通天的本领,还有着一颗忠义的心——在十万八千里的取经路上,每次师傅被妖魔抓去,他总是第一个冲到妖怪洞口,拼死营救唐僧。虽然中间会有些挫折,但经过不懈努力,还是每战必胜!最经典的是那次“三打白骨精”,他不顾被师傅抛弃,还时刻保护着师傅,这等忠义,天地可鉴啊!
这本书在思想上的成就十分巨大,难怪鲁迅先生这样评价它:“虽述变换恍惚之事,亦每杂解颐之言,使神魔皆有人情,精魅亦通事故,而玩世不恭之意寓焉。”关于它在艺术方面的成就,那就更不用说了:每一段故事都层次分明,书中语言通俗易懂,人物刻画得栩栩如生,细节描写生动传神,场面描写让人感觉身临其境,故事情节紧张激烈,很能吸引读者。330多万字的名著,不到十天的时间,我就看完了。难怪《西游记》能跻身于中国四大名著之列。
我喜欢孙悟空,我喜欢《西游记》。《西游记》教给了我许多,它让我明白,就像唐僧师徒前往西天取经,任何事,不论有多么困难,只要一心向前、坚持不懈,就一定能够成功;它让我明白,就像唐僧师徒,在人世间,只要一心向善,就必定会有好报。
在我家书架上琳琅满目的神话故事书中,那本快被我翻烂了的《西游记》静静地站着。我时常望着它,偶尔拿下来翻几页,沉浸在这故事的神奇中,感受着它带给我的无尽的欢乐,汲取着孙行者带给我的坚持的力量。
篇16:小说《斑羚飞渡》读后感
全文共 736 字
+ 加入清单今年寒假里我读了沈石溪叔叔的小说《斑羚飞渡》,它讲了斑羚等动物的生死传奇。这些动物们有快乐、也有痛苦,有灵性、也有感情。
《斑羚飞渡》讲的是:一次,有一群斑羚被猎人逼到了伤心崖上,这群斑羚惊慌失措。就在这时,头羊大声“咩咩”地叫了起来,所有的斑羚都害怕极了。这最危急的关头,有一老一少两只斑羚走出队伍,两只斑羚同时跃起:老斑羚跳的高度比小斑羚矮一些,跳到一半时小斑羚用四肢猛的一踢老斑羚的背!老斑羚笔直落下伤心崖,发出了最后一声哀叫。而小斑羚成功跃过伤心崖。头羊决定了用牺牲一半、挽救另一半的办法来赢得种群的生存!就是用老斑羚的身体做年轻斑铃的垫脚石,帮助成功飞渡过悬崖。这个办法成功了,但每一只年轻斑羚的成功飞渡,都意味着有一只老年斑羚摔得粉身碎骨!山涧上空,和那道彩虹平行,又架起了一座桥,那是一座用死亡做桥墩架设起来的桥!最后,伤心崖上只剩下那只成功地指挥了这整群斑羚集体飞渡的镰刀头羊。只见它迈着坚定的步伐,走向那道绚丽的彩虹……
看到这儿,我的眼圈红了,没有想到在面临种族灭绝的关键时刻,斑羚群竟能想出这种办法来赢得生存的机会,我更没有想到老斑羚们会那么从容地走向死亡,心甘情愿地用生命为下一代开通一条生存的道路!我想:我们,不要把动物当作机器使用;应该对动物们友好相处,不要大批 大批地猎杀它们;不要过多地砍伐树木、更不要让它们死于非命,应该对动物们友好相处。如果没有了动物,生态就会遭到破坏,长期下去,更会严重地影响到人类的生存。世界不会因为一种动物的消失而灭绝,却会因为生态的不平衡而逐渐衰退、老化……造成这些的不是别人,正是我们人类自己!我们应该和动物做朋友。让我们一起保护:古朴国宝:大熊猫,仰鼻蓝面:金丝猴 ……这些濒临灭绝的动物。
让我们跟动物做朋友吧!
篇17:余华《活着》小说读后感900字
全文共 935 字
+ 加入清单看完了余华的《活着》,不明白该怎样去评价福贵这个人,说他不幸,他却度过了最为漫长而黑暗的一夜,乐观而坚强地活着;说他幸运,他又亲手埋葬了自己所有的亲人,只剩一头比他年纪还大的病牛陪伴着。其实,福贵的人生代表了那个时代大部分中国人的命途:从身为地主的浮华到败家后遭压迫;从被国民党逼迫去打仗到遇到解放军回家团聚;经历了人民公社化运动、大炼钢铁……
书中有很多可圈可点的地方,但此刻一向盘旋在我脑海中的是福贵的儿子有庆给镇长的女儿献血时被活活抽死的场景。我仿佛看到有庆嘴唇发乌,脸色铁青地呢喃着头晕,我仿佛触摸到他想要抽出那被医生死死握住的全是骨头的手。我似乎就在那样一个场景中,想要上去帮一把有庆,却被什么阻挡着,只能眼睁睁看着,心发憷。其实有庆是不是代表着那个年代想要拯救中国的有志之士呢,他们一腔热血被时代活活抽干,成为有权阶级的美食。
画面一转,是老人福贵和他的老牛福贵。我看到两个福贵一样黝黑的脊背在余晖中发光,听到老人用浑浊的嗓音在空旷的田野间响起:少年去游荡,中年想掘藏,老年做和尚。整本书以老人的叙述为主,作者和我都是旁听者,坐在下午的山头上,听老人默默细数。正如作者所说,很少有人能这么详细地讲述自己的一生,我想这大概是因为福贵这大半辈子都用在回忆过去了,一个人守着7个人的人生,不断在脑海中放映,无论巨细。就像书中有这样一个情节,老人福贵“责骂”老牛福贵道:“这天有庆,家珍耕了2亩田,苦根还小,也耕了1亩田,你呢,我明白你年纪大了,也就不说出来羞你了。”我不解,明明那里就只有一人一牛,哪儿来的那么多名字福贵得意地解释说,:“如果它(牛)明白只有它在耕作,就会偷懒的。”呵,多么搞笑而忧伤的画面,其实福贵和他的牛一样,他们都假想着自己的亲人还在,所以从来不曾忘记。
故事的最后,黄昏正在转瞬即逝,黑夜从天而降了。我看到广阔的土地袒露着结实的胸膛,那是召唤的姿态,就像女人召唤着她们的儿女,土地召唤着黑夜来临。我久久停留在故事中,眼前一会儿是少年时飞扬跋扈的少爷福贵,一会儿是得了软骨症不能干活而哭泣的家珍,一会儿又是饿的撑死的苦根。我仿佛是想要哭出来的,但却又觉得连福贵自己都从未哭泣过,我又在那里流着谁的眼泪呢
原先,《活着》便是最好的幸运,亦是最大的勇气。

+ 加入清单I have seen the novels name --the Kite Runner many times from the Internet,when it comes to "the novels moved you most".With curiosity,I downloaded it.When reading the novel,from the beginning to the end,I felt a heavy stone of sorrow on my heart.
It is a story about friendship,about fault and atonement,about the good and evil of human natual.
The narrator of the story,Amir ,is born in a rich family.Hassan is his servant as well as close friend.They both lose mother from birth and grow up like brothers.
From Hassan ,I see the most kind and beautiful soul.He never means to hurt anyone.he protects Amir bravely and has a broad mind to endure what Amir do to him.With the promise to run the kite,he hands the last cut kite to Amir though he has insulted by the bully,Assef. for lifetime,he cherishes the friendship,even he dies of protecting Amirs house."For you,a thousand times over"he does as he says…
If Hassan can be described as an angel, then Amir is just a person.when he is a boy,he is badly want fathers love and care.he will be jealous,he will fear and be cowardly.When he sees Hassan insulted by Assef,he is so scared that he only hides and watches.he sees what happened but keeps it as a secret.In order to escape the guilt,he makes another fault, making Hassan leave by framing Hassan .Years past, he is still haunted by betraying his childhood friend.
I was shocked when the big secret reveals: Hassan is Amirs half brother,the son of his father and a sevants wife! Amirs father lives a torturing life,he is torn into two parts.He cant give Hassan the love in the name of a father,which is unfair to Hassan.That explains why he seems care little about Amir …
Knowing the truth,Amir has a painful struggle at the first,and finally chooses the right way,a way of atonement.He rescues Hassans orphan ,Sorhab,from Assefs hand.At that time,he faces up to Assefs fists,being a man not cowardly.Having gone though a lot of difficulties,he finally brings Sorhab to American.But Sorhab is emotional damaged by adversity.Amir make efforts to revive the little heart.At the end of the story,Sorhab shows a lopside smile,which delights Amir much.Amir run kite for Hassans son,and says what Hassan once said,"for you, a thousand times over".The snow will be melt,and the spring is coming…The ending is not clearly told,but full of hope.
I like the author written style.Theres paragraghs of internal monologues,warm memorys , sad plots,horrible war scenes…the words,sentences always catch me tightly,make me think,make me cry…Now if someone ask me what novels impressed me most,The Kite Runner will be an answer.
It is the first time I have seen a novel in English.It is hard for me to insist on reading as there are so many words I have to look up.But it really benefit me in some way.
篇19:《三怪客泛舟记》英文读后感
全文共 2991 字
+ 加入清单To Live Happily All the Time
——about “Three Men in A Boat”
Most fairy tales end like this:“They live happily ever after.” But to George, Harris and J, “ever after” is far from enough. Their belief is to live happily ALL THE TIME. Who are these three guys? They are the “bestest” pals from a humorous English book — Three Men in A Boat.
Just take a look at these three funny guys: You can meet them anywhere at any time. All of them have great aspirations and plenty of passion. But in the morning, none of them like to wake up early. All of them want to be great explorers. But on rainy days, they all prefer to stay by the warm fireplace. Yes, it’s our Harris, George and J. And now, they are taking a vacation on the famous Thames.
They started off in a little boat, which none of them would like to drive. They kept explaining that they didn’t come out for fun—they were taking a rest because of some so called “dreadful disease”。 When they were traveling, they couldn’t stop making jokes on others. When they were cooking, they couldn’t stop the eggs from getting on their pans. when they finally gave up the boat and went home by train, they still couldn’t stop telling each other how clever it was to be “three men out of boat”……
Such a simple story has brought me lots of laugher and thoughts. I laughed over their funny troubles and funny talkings all along the trip. And also I found that I came to admire them after laughing each time. Because when they met something in trouble, or their own complicated jobs came, first, they would burst into laughter at once, and then started to solve the problem slowly with partience and happiness. Sometimes I was surprised by them. Because something that happens in our daily life such as losing the wallet, or a bad weather, will make every one of us complain and be upset for long. But how about the three men in the boat? They will certainly laugh at it first! They giggle, they grin, they smile. They have taught me how to laugh at trouble, to smile at hard work, and to laugh away tears. It’s a good way to face my blue days. As a student, I always complain about my homework, my parents, and my classmates. But George, Harris and J told me: there’s no point in complaining. Just face your life and try to find the good side of everything. And also remember to cherish friendship—like the three of them.
Yes, yes. Sometimes they seemed to be “cynical” or “lazy”。 But the fire of live, diligence, and happiness is burning in their hearts all the time. To them, the so called “dreadful disease” is only an excuse for their going out to relax. To them, all the trouble is the chance to use both patience and laughter. To them, all the hard work is the gift from God to make them stronger and happier.
Don’t just stare at the “happy ending” of “living happily every after”。 Think about the three men in the boat. They are common guys like you and me. But they are all very great—They have the ability to make themselves live happily ALL THE TIME.
篇20:《奥林匹克》英文读后感
全文共 3472 字
+ 加入清单The Olympic Games, which originated in ancient Greece, is the most distinguished sporting event in the world. Once every four years, the utmost athletes from all around are lured to gather together and spare no efforts to compete against each other and try to win a medal for the country that they represent. Frankly speaking, that was virtually all I knew about the world-famous Olympic Games before I had read a book entitled The Olympics published by Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press. However, I found even more philosophy beyond just winning medals from reading the book, which was beyond my imagination and considerably inspiring.
Someone once said, “Were everybody on earth involved in some kind of sport, our world would be free of war for long.” Starting from three thousand years ago, the ancient Olympic Games has long been an event not only for competition but also for peace. In ancient times, no war was allowed between the cities during the Games, which was rather surprising to me since I could hardly imagine warriors actally putting down their weapons and give a break for peace. The precious tradition of peace continued: I would never fail to recall the scene of the opening ceremonies when North and South Korean athletes entering the stadium with their hands held together. The two neighboring countries that used to be enemies are no longer enemies during the Games. Instead they became friends. Speaking of the XX Athens Olympics, perhaps most people would have the same opinion that the most noable part of the opening ceremony arrived when Iraqi and Afghan representatives showed up. These two unfortunate nations, the people of which have undergone innumerable wars, are coming back again to take their own responsibility in world sports after recent invasions by America. The fearless people of Iraq and Afghanistan are once more sharing the spirit of the Games with people from the rest of the world.
There is another story in this book that makes me deep in thoughts. There is no doubt that the most unusual Olympic Games ever in history is the 1936 Olympics held in Germany, which was then ruled by the Nazi Party. Led by Adolf Hitler, the Nazi believed that the so-called Aryan people were superior to all others in all aspects. They looked down upon Jews and blacks, the latter of which was a major constitution of the United States Olympic team. Despite the barrier that faced him, the African American Jesse Owens, who was a most outstanding runner and jumper, did all that he could and finally won gold medals for his country and went home a hero. This reveals another fact that no power on earth is able to hinder the sacred Olympic Games. For all participants, no matter what their gender, race, nationalities and backgrounds are, equality is distributed among every one who observes the Game’s rules.
At the XX Athens Olympics, our Chinese team did extraordinarily well. We ranked second on the medal lists for the first time in history. In my opinion, however, we should not only concentrate on the figure of medals; instead the strength and perseverance of those who failed to get any medals ought to be highly cherished. Whether ever success or failure, whether ever cheer or tear, whether ever medal or not, the never-gave-up spirits of athletes are always motivating us. I believe in the year 2008, the world will focus all their attention to Beijing, China, where the glory of the Games will continue to thrive forever!
