麦田里的守望者》是美国作家杰罗姆·大卫·塞林格写的。记叙了故事中主人公霍尔顿·考尔菲德在中学时期的一段故事。在我脑海里留下了深刻的印象。

本书以主人公霍尔顿自叙的语气讲述自己被学校开除后在纽约城游荡将近两昼夜的经历和心灵感受。它不仅生动细致地描绘了一个不安现状的中产阶级子弟的苦闷仿徨、孤独愤世的精神世界,一个青春期少年矛盾百出的心理特征,也批判了成人社会的虚伪和做作。霍尔顿是个性洛复杂而又矛盾的青少年的典型。他有一颗纯洁善良、追求美好生活和崇高理想的童心。他对那些热衷于谈女人和酒的人十分反感,对校长的虚伪势利非常厌恶,看到墙上的下流字眼便愤愤擦去,遇到修女为受难者募捐就慷慨解囊。他对妹妹菲芯真诚爱护,百般照顾。为了保护孩子,不让他们掉下悬崖,他还渴望终生做一个“麦田里的守望者”,发出“救救孩子”般的呼声。可是,愤世嫉俗思想引起的消极反抗,还有那敏感、好奇、焦躁、不安,想发泄、易冲动的青春期心理,又使得他不肯读书,不求上进,追求刺激,玩世不恭;他抽烟、酗酒、打架、调情,甚至找妓女玩。他觉得老师、父母要他读书上进,无非是要他“出人头地……以便将来可以买辆混帐凯迪拉克”。他认为成人社会里没有一个人可信,全是“假仁假义的伪君子”,连他敬佩的唯一的一位老师,后来也发现可能是个同性恋者,而且还用“一个不成熟男子的标志是他愿意为某种事业英勇地死去,一个成熟男子的标志是他愿意为某种事业卑贱地活着”那一套来教导他。他看不惯现实社会中的那种世态人情,他渴望的是朴实和真诚,但遇到的全是虚伪和欺骗,而他又无力改变这种现状,只好苦闷、彷徨、放纵,最后甚至想逃离这个现实世界,到穷乡僻壤去装成一个又聋又哑的人。二次大战后,美国在社会异化、政治高压和保守文化三股力量的高压下,形成了“沉寂的十年”,而首先起来反抗的是“垮掉的一代”,本书主人公霍尔顿实际上也是个“垮掉分子”,是最早出现读《麦田里的守望者》有感的“反英雄”,只是他还没有放纵和混乱到他们那样的程度罢了。

1951年,这部小说一问世,立即引起轰动。主人公的经历和思想在青少年中引起强烈共鸣,受到读者,特别是大中学生的热烈欢迎。他们纷纷模仿主人公霍尔顿的装束打扮,讲“霍尔顿式”的语言,因为这部小说道出了他们的心声,反映了他们的理想、苦闷和愿望。家长们和文学界也对这本书展开厂争论。有认为它能使青少年增加对生活的认识,对丑恶的现实提高警惕,促使他们去选择一条自爱的道路;成年人通过这本书也可增进对青少年的理解。可是也有人认为这是一本坏书,主人公读书不用功,还抽烟、酗酒,满口粗活,张口就“他妈的”,因此应该禁止。经过30多年来时间的考验,证明它不愧为美国当代文学中的“现代经典小说”之一。现在大多数中学和高等学校已把它列为必读的课外读物,正如有的评论家说的那样,它“几乎大大地影响了好几代美国青年”。

《麦田里的守望者》之所以能产生如此重大的影响,很重要的一点还由于作者创造了一种新颖的艺术风格。全书通过第一人称,以一个青少年的口吻叙述了自己的所思所想、所见所闻和行为举止,也以一个青少年的眼光批判了成人世界的虚伪面目和欺骗行径。作者以细腻深刻的笔法剖析了主人公的复杂心理,不仅抓住了他的理想与现实冲突这一心理加以分析,而且也紧紧抓住了青少年青春期的心理特点来表现主人公的善良纯真和荒诞放纵。小说中既用了“生活流”,也用了“意识流”,两者得到了巧妙的结合。在语言的运用上,本书也独创一格。全书用青少年的口吻平铺直叙,不避琐碎,不讳隐私,使用了大量的口语和俚语,生动活泼,平易近人,达到了如闻其声、如见其人的效果,增加了作品的感染力,使读者更能激起共鸣和思索,激起联想和反响。

读完了这篇小说,是我有了一些看法,我觉得,其实,霍尔顿对一些社会现象的指责是完全正确的,比如说,“酒吧里那个弹钢琴的人,弹琴时,喜欢卖弄,不管什么曲子,都被他糟蹋的一塌糊涂,傻里傻气地把高音符弹得如流水一般,还有许多油腔滑调的鬼把戏,我听了真是厌恶极了。”这是霍尔顿的看法。我也十分讨厌霍尔顿所说的那种人,喜欢炫耀本事,假模假式,显得自己是个仁人君子。这也好似中国古代那些奉承皇上的官员,说一些不堪入耳的话。但霍尔顿由于心理问题把这些都看得太重了,太过分了,所以才会觉得生活索然无味。后来,他有了更为荒唐的决定,一个人乘车去西部,装作一个又聋又哑的人,不原被别人所打扰,再找一份工作,取一个又聋又哑但很美丽的妻子,安度生活。幸亏妹妹菲苾及时阻拦,虽无效果,但妹妹菲苾十分生气,为了妹妹,霍尔顿留了下来,后来终于开始了新的生活。

霍尔顿厌恶那些口是心非的人,我也一样,这种人实在值得我警醒,我弄不懂的是,那些人为什么那样?是为了体面吗?是为了炫耀吗?还有,为什么大部分人都不这样觉得?不管怎样,以后我一定要做一个表里如一的人。

做每一件事都要三思而行,不能莽撞行事,并且要听取别人的劝告,不要把苦痛看得太重,要设法摆脱,寻找快乐,这就是我得出的道理。

For You, a Thousand Times over

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.

篇2:《格列佛游记》英文读后感

全文共 3924 字

One of the most interesting questions about Gullivers Travels is whether the Houyhnhnms represent an ideal of rationality or whether on the other hand they are the butt of Swifts satire. In other words, in Book IV, is Swift poking fun at the talking horses or does he intend for us to take them seriously as the proper way to act? If we look closely at the way that the Houyhnhnms act, we can see that in fact Swift does not take them seriously: he uses them to show the dangers of pride.

First we have to see that Swift does not even take Gullver seriously. For instance, his name sounds much like gullible, which suggests that he will believe anything. Also, when he first sees the Yahoos and they throw excrement on him, he responds by doing the same in return until they run away. He says, "I must needs discover some more rational being," even though as a human he is already the most rational being there is. This is why Swift refers to Erasmus Darwins discovery of the origin of the species and the voyage of the Beagle-to show how Gulliver knows that people are at the top of the food chain. But if Lemule Gulliver is satirized, so are the Houyhnhnms, whose voices sound like the call of castrati. They walk on two legs instead of four, and seem to be much like people. As Gulliver says, "It was with the utmost astonishment that I witnessed these creatures playing the flute and dancing a Vienese waltz. To my mind, they seemed like the greatest humans ever seen in court, even more dextrous than the Lord Edmund Burke" . As this quote demonstrates, Gulliver is terribly impressed, but his admiration for the Houyhnhnms is short-lived because they are so prideful. For instance, the leader of the Houyhnhnms claims that he has read all the works of Charles Dickens, and that he can singlehandedly recite the names of all the Kings and Queens of England up to George II. Swift subtly shows that this Houyhnhnms pride is misplaced when, in the middle of the intellectual competition, he forgets the name of Queen Elizabeths husband.

Swifts satire of the Houyhnhnms comes out in other ways as well. One of the most memorable scenes is when the dapple grey mare attempts to woo the horse that Guenivre has brought with him to the island. First she acts flirtatiously, parading around the bewildered horse. But when this does not have the desired effect, she gets another idea: "As I watched in amazement from my perch in the top of a tree, the sorrel nag dashed off and returned with a yahoo on her back who was yet more monstrous than Mr. Pope being fitted by a clothier. She dropped this creature before my nag as if offering up a sacrifice. My horse sniffed the creature and turned away." It might seem that we should take this scene seriously as a failed attempt at courtship, and that consequently we should see the grey mare as an unrequited lover. But it makes more sense if we see that Swift is being satiric here: it is the female Houyhnhnm who makes the move, which would not have happened in eighteenth-century England. The Houyhnhm is being prideful, and it is that pride that makes him unable to impress Gullivers horse. Gulliver imagines the horse saying, Sblood, the notion of creating the bare backed beast with an animal who had held Mr. Pope on her back makes me queezy .

A final indication that the Houyhnmns are not meant to be taken seriously occurs when the leader of the Houynhms visits Lilliput, where he visits the French Royal Society. He goes into a room in which a scientist is trying to turn wine into water (itself a prideful act that refers to the marriage at Gallilee). The scientist has been working hard at the experiment for many years without success, when the Houyhnmn arrives and immediately knows that to do: "The creature no sooner stepped through the doorway than he struck upon a plan. Slurping up all the wine in sight, he quickly made water in a bucket that sat near the door" .

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.

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.

Such kind of friendship is pure and clean, Only leaving the selfless love and pure kindness.

假如霍尔顿没有他纯洁的理想,那他就会堕落到底,是他的理想让他活下来.理想是人的指路明灯,它带着人走向未来,走向光明.我们的人生才刚刚开始,纵然生活让我们这代人有些迷惘和彷徨,但一切不过是暂时的,不就都会过去,我们现在最需要的

他倒扣鸭舌帽,穿大号风衣,抽烟、醺酒,满嘴"他妈的、混帐"。因被开除而又不感回家而开始了他维时几日的流浪生活。他厌恶这个世界,他认为大人叫他读书就是为了以后能买辆"混帐凯迪拉克",他讨厌这个金钱至上的社会,自己却挥霍无度,说自己"不是把钱花了就是扔了,是个十足的败家子。讨厌别人谈论酒和女人,自己却醺酒、恋美色,并且在流浪的几天里糊里糊涂地找来了妓女。自己想的和做的无法统一使他痛苦万分。

他所唯一敬爱的老师也竟是个同性恋。就在这重重矛盾中,他无法自拔,最终躺在了精神病院中。表面上霍尔顿是个玩世不恭的坏孩子,但实际上他却有颗纯净善良的心。他爱自己的妹妹,就在见她的那晚,霍尔顿说出了这段话:"我只想当一个麦田里的守望者!"霍尔顿说,他想像着在一大片麦田里,几千几万个小孩子在游戏,周围除了他没有一个大人。他就站在麦田边上的悬崖旁守望着,看哪个孩子朝悬崖奔过来就捉住他,不让他掉下悬崖。"这是他的一个美好幻想,也是他美好心灵的见证,他希望那些快乐的孩子不要跌入悬崖,而是永远快乐的奔跑,而那麦田似乎象征着物质世界,他希望生活在充满物质主义精神世界的孩子不要迷失自我,走向悬崖。

相对于他那两个糊涂的室友,霍尔顿更清楚的认识到了自己所处的世界是什么样子的。而他厌恶这一切,因为厌恶,处于青春期的他就越发的那样做,似乎是一种反抗。很多时候,我们将自己的不满与叛逆小心地匿藏于心中,为了迎合社会,我们学会了伪装,欺骗。为了追名逐利,我们麻痹了自己的心,那些真实的想法渐渐被封存于心底,或许是一种自我保护,毕竟将自己完全袒露于这个陌生的世界中是不安全的。"一个不成熟男子的标志是他愿意为某种事业英勇地死去,一个成熟男子的标志是他愿意为某种事业卑贱地活着。

"一位老师如是教导主人公。这就是理智与成熟吗,我不敢苟同,可能是我还未涉世,单至少现在,我仍希望自己有一颗火热的心去面对世界。谁的愿望会是去当一个麦田守望者呢?或许因为霍尔顿身为富家子弟才使他表达出了自己最真实的愿望。然而现实总是现实,霍尔顿最终回到了现实世界中,表面上是因为妹妹的挽留,但事实上霍尔顿也无法离开自己所处之地,或许他自己也明白。流浪的结束也预示着青春期的他锐变的结束。"人只是在不断地出逃和回家中艰难地长大,真实的生活就是在这过程中出现了意义。"正在成长中的我们是否也体会到了呢?

The Scarlet Letter offers an extraordinary insight into the norms and behavior of the 17th century if American Puritan society.The basic conflicts and problems of its main characters,however,are familiar to readers in the present.The female protagonist,has borne a child out of wedlock and has been jailed for over three months and sentenced to wear a symbol of her adultery,a scarlet “A” on her dress at all times.It concerns about the moral,emotional and psychological effect of the sin on people in general.It’s not simply a love story or a story of sin.The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne uses the scarlet letters to symbolize the harshness of Puritan society,showing how they brand sinners for life.

The story happened in Boston about 200 years ago.It narrates love affairs between three persons.The punished woman.Hester Prynne and his husband.Who called himself Roger Chillingworth .He is an old misshapen man and a doctor.Hester does not love him at all.Another man is a young minister,Dimmesdale,who has a high position among ministers and is highly respected among his people in town.Hester and Dimmesdale love each other.But their love is forbidden in that time .It is sinful.Due to this,Hester is punished by society with a letter A on her chest,which considered an evil,a shame.

In this novel,the mainline seems to be around the letter A.Hester is brave enough to face the cruel reality.She is always with a mind of courage.She has been alone with her child for so long ,with litter communication.Shame!Hopelessness!Loneliness!Hester has to wear the letter A day after day,seven years as for punishment and ill fame.

When a woman has lived through a difficult experience,her character changes a great deal.If she be all tenderness,she will die.If she survive,the tenderness will leave her .Hester’s charitable deeds and quiet humility have earned her a reprieve from the scorn of the community.The letter on her chest represents her work on earth ,always helping others,without expecting any thanks.Never afterwards,does that scarlet letter leave her chest.The townspeople no longer view the letter as a punishment ,but rather as representing her great strength and bravery and thy say it means “Able”.

But Arthur Dimmesdale,his sin against Hester and Pearl is that he will not acknowledge them as his wife and daughter in the daylight.He keeps his dreadful secret from all those under his care in the church for seven years for fear that he will lose their love and will not be forgiven.He is too weak to admit his sins.He suffers from mysterious heart trouble,seemingly caused by psychological distress.What’s worse,he is an advisor to the townspeople about their sins.

After Mr.Dimmesdale’s death ,no one changes more in appearance than Roger Chilling worth.All his strength and energy has been used to harm his patient .This unhappy man has made his aim in life to add to the suffering of the young minister.When the evil old man no longer has such a purpose,the devil takes him back to the hell .It is a curious subject of observation,however,whether hatred or love are not of the same place.Each takes a great deal of emotion from one person.The two feelings seem basically the same,expect that one is smiled upon by God,while the other is worshipped by the devil.

在图书馆里,我无意中发现了一本很薄的书,名字叫《麦田里的守望者》,在我拿起这本书时,我没有想到这一本书会对我产生这么大的影响,使我感触很深,我觉得这本书的形式和内容都很出色。

美国的五十年代是一个相当混乱的时期,二战的阴云尚未散去,冷战硝烟又起。一方面科技发展迅速,而另一方面,人们缺乏理想,意志消沉,在自己无力改变的社 会大背景下,过着混混噩噩的生活。于是,"垮掉的一代"出现了,霍尔顿就是其中的一员,他抽烟酗酒,不求上进,但是,他还不至于沦落到吸毒,群居的地步, 因为在他心底,一直还存有美丽而遥远的理想——做一个"麦田里的守望者"。

我们生活的这个国度,这个时代正处于巨大的变革之中,一切都在日新月异的发展。从某种意义上说,这与50年代的美国确实有些相象。社会不断进步,人们的思 想观念也在发生变化,很多人开始迷茫,消沉,他们逐渐遗忘自己的理想,没有了最初的热情,开始向往平庸。酒吧、卡拉OK、棋牌室开始人流如潮,网吧、游戏 机房中学生不断,所谓新新人类疯狂地迷恋上了摇头丸、K粉等毒品……

我们是一群生活在新时代的新生力量,自然已经习惯了困惑和烦恼,但是我们应该集中精神看准我们的前方,我们的路,我们应该是一群有理想有抱负的人,从小我 们就对自己的未来充满憧憬,想当科学家、医生、护士、老师……假如霍尔顿没有他纯洁的理想,那他就会堕落到底,是他的理想让他活下来。难道我们年轻人就该 让生活变得如此混沌?是的,理想是人的指路明灯,它带着人走向未来,走向光明,我们的人生才刚刚开始,纵然生活让我们这代人有些迷惘和彷徨,但一切不过是 暂时的,不就都会过去,我们现在最需要的,就是我们的理想。

是的,有理想就有希望,希望就在明天,明天会更美好!把握好自己的生活,明天必定会是金碧辉煌!

德伯家的苔丝》是哈代的代表作,是“威塞克斯系列”中的一部。它描写了一位农村姑娘的悲惨命运。看过这部小说后你有什么感触呢?下面是小编为大家整理的英文读后感范文,希望对你有帮助。

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.

篇11:《傲慢与偏见》英文读后感

全文共 2087 字

+ 加入清单

Mrs. Bennet wants to marry off her daughters. If you want to know why she is so crazy about these things, I must mention the situation in Britain at that time. Only the eldest son had the privilege of inheriting his father’s possessions. Younger sons and daughters who are used to luxurious lives have no choice but marry a man or woman in possession of a large fortune to continue their comfortable lives. Thus, we can see that getting married is a way to become wealthier, particularly for women without many possessions. Jane Austen told us that money and possession determined everything, including marriage and love in her century.

In “Pride and Prejudice”, the sister of Mr. Bingley strongly opposed his plan of marrying Jane because the Bennets don’t have many possessions and their social positions are much lower than them. From this, we can see there are a lot of obstacles for a not very rich woman to marry a wealthy husband. The society, the relatives would not allow them to get married.

In modern society, although the marriages of economic needs have decreased rapidly, the concept of “money determines everything” is still rooted in some people’s mind. A lot of parents try hard to interfere their children’s marriages. Education background, possessions, jobs remains the main reason that may influence one’s marriage. Marry for money is still a big problem in our society. We can’t help thinking: can money determine everything?

Austen left this problem for us to think. The genius of Jane Austen lies in this perfect simplicity, the simplicity that reflects big problems. Although Austen was only 21 when she wrote “Pride and Prejudice”, her sharp observation of social lives makes the style of this book surprisingly mature and lively. The plots in her works are always very natural. The development of the plot is as inevitable as a problem in mathematics. I think the depth of Pride and Prejudice is the reason that makes this book prominent and classic. Today, her book still can be the guide telling us the economic relationships both at her time and in modern time.

篇12:麦田里的守望者读后感700字

全文共 736 字

+ 加入清单

这是一个专属于年轻人的故事,叛逆、放荡、残酷的故事,来自少年对社会的认知。也许因为我自身的年龄、经历的事情,也许我没有主人公如此的愤世嫉俗,书中为了表现霍尔顿的不学无术每句都是满嘴脏话,令我有些遗憾。当然这只是我个人的看法。

不过虽然有这些粗俗词语,但霍尔顿拥有一颗敏感的心,也正是因为这颗心才让他如此不同,“出淤泥而不染”。霍尔顿厌恶学校、厌恶人群、各色各样的人,但本质上他是个很不错的人,只是“假模假式”的社会不得不令他心烦。他并不像那些伪君子一样,屈于种种利益、名誉,最终堕落虚伪着生活着。不论权利再大的人,也只是这个社会的傀儡罢了。

他想逃离这个一刻也不想待的地方,甚至想去乡下装聋哑人来摆脱世俗,可做“不食人间烟火”也只能想想而已。仅此而已。

霍尔顿最痛恨电影,做作的情节使他头疼,可在百无聊赖时他又不得不迈入电影院;他痛恨玩弄的感情,一种肮脏的爱情,可他又做了他痛恨的事情……诸如此类的事情太多太多。塞林格笔下的霍尔顿是悲剧的,他的悲剧比任何人都要痛苦。挣扎的太多,惶恐无助,逼迫做自己讨厌的事情,只是因为他看破红尘、看淡一切,想逃避。最后,也只好妥协。

霍尔顿的人物形象也是很讽刺的吧。

他的幻想是美好的,做一个麦田守望者,守望着那些天真烂漫的孩子们,就像他的妹妹菲苾、弟弟艾里那样。在这个喧嚣污浊的世界,也仅仅有孩子拥有花儿般得心灵了。却也完不成这个愿望了吧。这个世界被腐蚀了太多太多。

有时候,比起主人公的“愤怒青年”我更喜欢那个可爱的菲苾。她虽是小孩子,但比她哥哥更理性。她懂得做事的轻重缓急,当然也打消了霍尔顿不切实际的想法。

你的身边,也总会有这种人吧。像主人公的桀骜不驯,菲苾的善解人意,伪君子的假惺惺,它会使我们引起共鸣。我想这也是《麦》畅销的最大原因吧。

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.

Anne Frank was a Jewish girl. She could and ordinary girl, living a happy life, but she was not hiding different parents attic. Anne all day hiding in dark little attic to escape the Nazis killing. She could not get close to nature, can not be friends like before play. In the shadow of the shadow of death, Anne only keep a diary to get through tough every day. For her, the diary as her friends, her only friends can rely on and talk. She wrote in her diary a lot, there are silent on the racial discrimination complaint, more of the outside world, the natural yearning for thinking about life.

From her diary, I can imagine she was helpless, fear, but a more leisurely and calm. This is a great girl.

After reading the "Diary of Anne Frank", my heart is very heavy. Nazi racial discrimination, maiming and killing innocent pretty much the same as Annes children. War is always nasty, it makes human experience is a market catastrophe.

Thank you "Diary of Anne Frank" and let people see the ugliness of war, to get people to think about and condolences for the unfortunate people.

不久前我刚看完了英文版的《安妮日记》。其实这不是我第一次看这本书了。第一次看的时候我才上小学,看的是中文版的。那时还小,还读不懂,觉得没什么意思。而现在看起来,却有很深很深的感触。

安妮 弗兰克是个犹太女孩。她本可以和普通女孩一样过着快乐的生活,但她却不得不同父母躲到阁楼里。小小的安妮整日躲在阴暗的阁楼里,躲避着纳粹的捕杀。她无法亲近自然,无法和朋友们像以前一样玩耍。在死亡阴影的笼罩下,安妮只有记日记来度过难熬的每一天。对于她来说,日记就像她的朋友,她唯一可以依赖和倾诉的朋友。她在她的日记里写下了很多,有对种族歧视的无声的控诉,更多的是对外面世界,对自然的向往,对人生的思考。

从她的日记中,我可以想像出她当时的无助,惶恐,但更有从容和镇定。这是一个了不起的女孩。

看完了《安妮日记》,我的内心很沉重。纳粹的种族歧视,残害了多少像安妮一样无辜可爱的孩子。战争从来都是可恶的,它让人类经历的是一场场劫难。

感谢《安妮日记》,让人们看到了战争的丑恶,让人们去思考,去为不幸的人们哀悼。

愿历史不要再重演,祈求世界永远和平。

导语:《三国演义》是中国四大名著之一。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语读后感,欢迎阅读与借鉴,谢谢!

Recently I have read a famous Chinese classical novel-The romance of the Three Kingdoms and I felt benefit a lot. Let me tell you about my feelings.

The romance of the Three Kingdoms is one of the four great Chinese master pieces. It was written by Luo Guanzhong, who was born in 1330. It describes nearly 200 characters and tells the story from the late Eastern Han dynasty to the unified of Jin dynasty.

The minute I started to read this book, I was deeply impressed by the sentence at the beginning of the novel: "The empire, long divided, must unite; long united, must divide." It is so philosophical. It reflected the main history of the Three Kingdoms, from the rebellion of the Yellow Turbans to the replacement of the division of the country into Three Kingdoms (Wei, Shu and Wu) by the Jin Dynasty. In these periods, it showed a lot of heroic deeds, and what the heroes did had made a brilliant history. In this novel, the hero I admire mostly is Guan Yu, the general of Shu.

"A man of enormous height, nine spans tall, with a two-foot-long beard flowing from his rich, ruddy cheeks. He had glistening lips, eyes sweeping sharply back like those of the crimson-faced phoenix, and brows like nestling silkworms. His stature was imposing, his bearing awesome." This is Guan Yus appearance. He was called as hero not only because of his handsome looking, but because of his precious characters.

He is the embodiment of loyalty, wisdom and bravery. Once, when Guan Yu was having a battle with Cao Cao (the Master of Wei), he lost connection with Liu Bei(the Master of Shu), and finally he had to surrender because Liu Beis family was with him. Cao Cao appreciated Guan Yus talents, he provided a fabulous palace and lots of money to Guan Yu. Despite Guan Yu was taken good care of in the Cao Cao’s camp, but his heart was still with the Liu Bei’s camp. He had never given up looking for his master. As soon as he got the news of Liu Bei, Guan Yu had forced five passes and slew six captains, finally he found his master. His behavior showed not only his loyalty to his master but also his bravery.

Admittedly, Guan Yus death is also a lamentable. Because of his complacency, he looked down on the army of Wu, lost Jingzhou (an important City), finally, he flopped, and was killed by his personal enemy.

With his personal likes and dislikes, regardless of the consequences, it led to the disruption of the alliance between Wu and Shu, the whole situation was changed greatly.

Guan Yu’s lesson tells us: No matter how talented you are, you’d better remain modest and be humble.

This is a great novel that depicts the countless legendary stories. We can learn not only the characters of the heroes, but also the political and military strategies. It is a best way to experience the profound Chinese ancient culture. Tiancheng(Daniel)Dai

【参考译文】

最近我读了一本著名的中国古典小说>,我觉得受益匪浅。让我告诉你我的感受。

三国演义是中国四大名著之一。这是罗贯中写的,他出生于1330。它描述了近200个字,讲述了从东汉晚期到金朝统一的故事。

从我开始读这本书的那一刻起,我就对小说开头的一句话印象深刻:“帝国,长期分裂,必须团结;长期团结,必须分裂。”。它反映了三个王国的主要历史,从黄巾起义到国家部门更换成三个王国(魏、舒、吴)由晋。在这些时期,它表现了许多英雄事迹,英雄们做了辉煌的历史。在这部小说中,我最敬佩的英雄是舒将军关羽。

一个身材高大,身高九米,长着一二英尺长胡须的男人从他那红润红润的脸颊上流出。他有着闪亮的嘴唇,眼睛像深红色的凤凰一样深深地向后扫着,眉毛像刚开花的蚕。他的身材很高,他的举止令人敬畏.“这是关羽的样子。他之所以被称为英雄不仅是因为他英俊的外表,而是因为他珍贵的品格。

他是忠诚、智慧和勇敢的化身。有一次,当关羽和曹操(魏的主人)发生战斗时,他失去了与刘备(舒的主人)的联系,最后他不得不投降,因为刘备的家人和他在一起。曹操欣赏关羽的才华,他为关羽提供了一座华丽的宫殿和很多钱。尽管关羽在曹操的营地里得到了很好的照顾,但他的心仍然在刘备的营地里。他从未放弃寻找他的主人。关羽一听到刘备的消息,就强行传了五关,打死了六个上尉,最后他找到了他的主人。他的行为不仅表现出他对主人的忠诚,而且表现了他的勇敢。

诚然,关羽的死也是悲惨的。因为他的自满,他看不起吴的军队,失去了荆州(一个重要的城市),最后,他失败了,并被他的仇人杀死。

他不顾个人好恶,不顾后果,导致吴与舒的同盟破裂,整个局面发生了重大变化。

关羽的教训告诉我们:无论你多么有天赋,你最好保持谦虚和谦虚。

这是一部描写无数传奇故事的伟大小说。我们不仅可以学习英雄人物,而且可以学习政治和军事战略。是体验博大精深的中国古代文化的最佳途径。田成(丹尼尔)

篇18:麦田里的守望者读书笔记

说起与《麦田里的守望者》结缘,是在高中的时候,因为《青年文摘》对塞林格的简介,让我有了想看《麦田里的守望者》的想法。不过,因为种种原因,大二才得以如愿,看完了之后,脑海里冒出了一个想法,守望的内涵是什么?

杰罗姆·大卫·塞林格,美国作家,1919年1月1日生于纽约。父亲是犹太进口商。他的著名小说《麦田里的守望者》被认为是二十世纪美国文学的经典作品之一。“我老是在想象,有那么一群小孩子在一大块麦田里做游戏。我呢,就站在那混帐的悬崖边。我的职务是在那儿守望,要是有哪个孩子往悬崖边奔来,就把他捉住。我是说,孩子们都在狂奔,也不知道自己是在往哪儿跑,我得从什么地方出来,把他们捉住。我整天就干这样的事,我只想当个麦田里的守望者。我知道这有点异想天开,可我真正喜欢干的就是这个。我知道这不像话。”

这是《麦田里的守望者》的主人公,16岁的霍尔顿说的一段话。他说他真正喜欢干的就是做个麦田里的守望者,他知道这有点异想天开,所以上面的一段话都只是他的想象,或者说梦想。让我们来看看他在现实中都干了些什么。霍尔顿出身于纽约一个富裕的中产阶级的家庭。学校里的老师和自己的家长强迫他好好读书,为的是“出人头地,以便将来买辆混帐凯迪拉克”,而在学校里“一天到晚干的,就是谈女人、酒和性”。他看不惯周围的一切,根本没心思用功读书,因而老是挨罚。

到他第四次被开除出校时,他不敢贸然回家,便只身在美国最繁华的纽约城游荡了一天两夜,住小客店,逛夜总会,滥交女友,酗酒。他在电影院里百无聊赖地消磨时光,糊里糊涂地召了妓女,情不自禁地与虚荣庸俗但颇具美色的女友搂搂抱抱。与此同时,他的内心又十分苦闷彷徨,企图逃出“虚伪”的成人世界去寻找纯洁与真诚的经历和感受。这种精神上无法调和的极度矛盾最终令他彻底崩溃,躺倒在精神病院里。看吧,这就是他的人生。他的现实和梦想之间有着多么远的差别啊。他想做的是捉住孩子的守望者,但他自己就是一个四处狂奔不知道自己往哪里跑的孩子,可是又有谁来守望他捉住他不让他跌入生活和精神的悬崖呢?

守望显然带有挽救人生挽救灵魂的意义,也就是看护心灵的迷途者,避免其掉入精神的悬崖。这也就是霍尔顿梦想中的“守望”。只要我们稍微分析一下守望这个动词在书中的施者(霍尔顿)和受者(四处狂奔的孩子),就会明白它近似于一种利他主义,也就是为了他人的利益而不惜牺牲自己的利益。这种助人为乐的利他主义也就是佛陀和基督仁慈伦理中的“善”。但是守望究竟算不算一种美德呢?斯宾诺沙给美德下了这么一个定义:美德就是某种行动的力量,一个人越有能力保持自己的存在并获得对他有益的东西,他美德的力量就越大。

这么说来,守望这种行动的力量似乎很小,守望便该排除在美德之外。但是实际上,霍尔顿的守望让他得到精神上的宽慰和自豪,这种精神的满足更能让他认识到自身人格的存在,因而也更能维护他肉体和精神双方面的生存。所以,守望可算是最大的美德之一,即使他的现实是混帐的,是非守望的;但是,他的梦想是美好的,是守望。因此,不管怎样,守望,它都象征着一种理性,一种追求幸福的愿望。而这,正是守望的内涵和核心所在。

篇19:《茶花女》英文读后感

全文共 3479 字

---Book Review: “Camille”

I read the Chinese version of “Camille” a few years ago. At that time I was deeply moved by the main character Marguerite Gautier. “Camille” or “The Lady of the Camellias” by Alexandre Dumas, fils, is the story of Marguerite Gautier, a young courtesan, or kept woman, in Paris in the mid 1800s, and how she falls in love with a young man, Armand Duval, and then tries to escape from her questionable past. Unfortunately, it comes back to haunt her and she ends up returning to that life and dies painfully and alone, but with the knowledge that she was a noble woman at heart. When I first began to read the book, I did not care for Marguerite or her attitude or lifestyle, but as I got further into the narrative, I realized that her saucy attitude was a front to cover the lonely woman that she really was. She felt used, abused and unloved, until the gentle Armand Duval came into her life and showed her that he loved her as a person and not for what she could do for him. It must have taken great courage for Marguerite to leave the life she had lived for so long, knowing all along that it was probably too good to be true and would not last indefinitely. And it also showed that Marguerite really loved Armand Duval for she could even change herself for him.

However, happiness didn’t last for long. When M. Duval, Armands father, came to her, pleading for her to leave Armand to save both Armands reputation and that of his younger innocent sister, Marguerite saw a way to become pure of heart, if not in body. She felt that it was her duty, because she loved Armand so much, to do this even though it meant giving up her own happiness and hurting Armand temporarily. She reluctantly returned to her former life, knowing that some day Armand would forgive her. Sadly, she died in debt and basically alone, except for her one female friend, Julie Duprat, who helped her during her illness. She had her journal sent to Armand after her death, explaining why she had made the choices she had. I think Dumass last few lines about Marguerite being the exception, not the rule were quite true, and I also agreed with his view that while her lifestyle could not be condoned, we as a society assume that all of these type of women are cold and heartless, while this may not always be the case. A person can make the wrong choices in life when they are young, and try to redeem themselves, but sometimes past situations prevent them from changing their lives, even though they desperately wish to do so. This applies to both men and women in many different types of circumstances: involvement in crime; drug or alcohol abuse; gambling; prostitution; financial problems; poor marriage choices; etc. And this is the fact, which exists in the whole society.

As far as the other characters in the book, I think Marguerite was right in saying that no one truly cared about her, but only wanted something from her, the only exceptions being Armand and Julie Duprat. Of course, the Comte de G. and Comte de N. wanted her body and appearance. The Duke needed to “wake up and smell the coffee” and realize that she could never replace his dead daughter. If he truly cared, he could have helped her leave her lifestyle without “keeping” her himself. And lastly, Prudence was a blood-sucking leech who used Marguerite almost worse than the men. I also think she was jealous of the fact that Marguerite had so much more courage than herself and someone truly loved her.

麦田里的守望者》是美国作家塞林格带有自传性质的一部小说。小说主人公霍尔顿因5门功课中的4门不及格而被学校开除,但他又因种种因素而无法回家,于是在外漂泊流浪了两个多星期,他原本打算到西部去,但因妹妹菲芘的跟随而打消了这个念头。他最大的愿望是做一名麦田里的守望者,保护在麦田里玩耍的孩子不掉下悬崖去,但最终,他在大病了一场之后不得不再回到学校继续上课。大病也就意味着霍尔顿的大彻大悟,意味着一个人的生活最终要与现实接轨,意味着我们的叛逆是错误的。

主人公身上充满了叛逆色彩,他打架、逃课、吸烟、酗酒、等等,都是青春期孩子身上典型的叛逆特征,他厌恶学校,以及学校里的老师、同学等一切的人和事,他总是希望逃离现实生活而到自己理想的世界中去,却又一次一次被现实打击的失望彷徨,一次次的提醒着他,理想与现实之间是具有差距的。

的确是这样,理想与现实之间存在着反差,你的理想,往往就是你在现实中无法得到却又渴望得到的东西,现实越糟糕,理想就更美好。而理想只有通过我们的努力才能够得到实现。小说中主人公的理想很美好也很朴素,但对于他来说,依然是很难实现的。他只是一个十几岁的孩子,还没有自己独立生活的能力,因此他不能也不可能离开家离开父母独自一人到西部去生活。小说的最后,也许正因为作者认识到理想的不切实际,才乖乖的回到了家,回到了学校。

现实中的我们也是如此,和主人公霍尔顿有着一样的叛逆,总想着脱离社会规则而按照自己一个人的意愿去生活,然而理想和现实之间存有差距,人本来就是群体动物,成年人也不可能脱离社会而完全独立的一个人存在,更何况是还没有自立能力的我们呢?但也不要否认理想的存在,正因为有正确的理想鼓励我们,引导我们,我们才能够不断发展、不断进步。

理想和现实之间是有距离的,承认现实是我们实现理想的基础,而美好的理想又是鞭策我们不断进步的动力,只有正确的把握好理想与现实的关系,以现实为基础,以理想为目标,脚踏实地,我们才能不断前进,实现自己远大的理想。
