英语小说读后感
篇一:呼啸山庄英语>读后感
The book was written by Emily Bronte, it published in 1847.But at that time, it seemed to hold little promise, selling very poorly and receiving only a few mixed reviews.I found this in our school library, I chose this book because the title attracted me.The book is structured around two parallel love stories, the first half of the novel centering on the love between Catherine and Heathcliff, while the less dramatic second half features the developing love between young Catherine and Hareton.In contrast to the first, the latter tale ends happily, restoring peace and order to Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange.In the story, the two houses, Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange, represent opposing worlds and values.I spent twenty days reading this book.After reading this book, I felt for Heathcliff at first.Heathcliff begins his life as a homeless orphan on the streets of Liverpool, and then he tyrannized by Hindley Earnshaw.But he becomes a villain when he acquires power and returns to Wuthering Heights with money and the trappings of a gentleman.His malevolence proves so great and long—lasting.As he himself points out, his abuse of Isabella—his wife is purely sadistic, as he amuses himself by seeing how much abuse she can take and still come cringing back for more.Catherine represents wild nature, in both her high, lively spirits and her occasional cruelty.She loves Heathcliff so intensely that she claims they are the same person.However, her actions are driven in part by her social ambitions, which initially are awakened during her first stay at the Lintons, and which eventually compel her to marry Edgar.Catherine is free—spirited, beautiful, spoiled, and often arrogant, she is given to fits of temper, and she is torn between her both of the men who love her.The location of her coffin symbolizes the conflict that tears apart her short life.She is buried in a corner of the Kirkyard.In contrast to Catherine, Isabella Linton—Catherine’s sister—in—law represents culture and civilization, both in her refinement and in her weakness.Ultimately, she ruins her life by falling in love with Heathcliff.He never returns her feelings and treats her as a meretool in his quest for revenge on the Linton family.Just as Isabella Linton serves as Catherine’s foil, Edgar Linton serves as Heathcliff’s.Edgar grows into a tender, constant, but cowardly man.He is almost the ideal gentleman.However, this full assortment of gentlemanly characteristics, along with his civilized virtues, proves useless in Edgar’s clashes with his foil.He sees his wife obviously in love with another man but unable to do anything to rectify the situation.Heathcliff, who gains power over his wife, sister , and daughter.The whole story make people’s mood heavy.Fortunately, the end is happy.The author Emily Bronte lived an eccentric, closely guarded life.She was born in 1818, two years after Charlotte—the author of Jane Eyre and a year and a half before her sister Anne, who also became an author.Her father worked as a church rector, and her aunt, who raised the Bronte children after their mother died, was deeply religious.Emily Bronte did not take to her aunt’s Christian fervor, the character of Joseph, a caricature of an evangelical, may have been inspired by her aunt’s religiosity.The Brontes lived in Haworth, a Yorkshire village in the midst of the moors.These wild, desolate expanses—later the setting of Wuthering Heights—made up the Brontes daily environment, and Emily lived among them her entire life.She died in 1848, at the age of thirty.篇二:绿野仙踪英语读后感
After reading this wonderful story, I can feel love, brave, deep friendship and some other good spirits in the people.The Scarecrow wanted some brains, but on the way to the Emerald City, he thought out of a way to cross the river.The Cowardly Lion wanted to be brave, but when they met the river, he carried other friends to jump across it.And the Tin Man wanted a heart, he said he couldn’t love, but he didn’t want to hurt any animal.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 rave.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.篇三:小王子英语读后感
This story’s name is “The little prince”。As it known to all, we will encounter a lot of difficulties, even hardships.Different people may have different ways to deal with them.After reading The Little Princess, I am deeply impressed by Sara’s way to deal with difficulties.The Little Princess was written by Frances Hodgson Burnett, a famous novelist and dramatist.Sara, the heroine of the novel, was born in a rich family.In order to get a better education, her father took her from India to London so that she could go to the best school.Because Sara was kind-hearted, generous and most of all—rich, she was loved by everyone.All went well until her father died in an accident.Everything changed completely.She didn’t understand why the teachers and classmates treated her so badly.Even the principal who used to be fond of her, made her work 16 hours a day.Sara’s miserable life began.When I finished reading the book, I was shocked by what the unimaginable pain Sara had suffered after her father’s death.She used to be a happy, worriless, and rich Princess, but now she was a lonely and poor servant.She had to work very hard without any rest but only had little food.Besides she had to endure the unfriendly and even rude ways that her classmates treated her.All teachers and students in the school looked down upon her.The most important fact is that Sara had lost the love and care of her parents.What a mighty pain!If you were Sara, could you stand such pain? Needless to say,an 11 years old girl, even if it were an adult,he might not put up with it.But to my surprise, Sara faced it bravely.Despite of the torture of the principal and all those pressures above, she still was optimistic towards life.By reading this novel, I felt inspired and think much.When we meet such difficulties, what should we do? Some people always complain that the fate is unfair to them.Some people can’t sustain the hardships and choose to give up.Few of them even try to commit suicide because they lack the courage to overcome it.Compared with Sara—an eleven years old girl who can treat the pressure of life with optimistic spirit, these people’s performances are sounded so lamentable.Why can’t they make it?However, what impress me most are her characteristics and the thought of her “being a real princess.” This “real princess” does not mean luxury palaces, beautiful clothes and the apple of the others’ eyes, but being kind, generous and having good manners.It is unnecessary for “a real princess” to be strong in body, but she must be strong in will.Sara is a real princess in my heart all the time, whether she was rich and wore beautiful clothes in the classroom or she was cold and hungry in the attic, just because she had the good characters and kind heart.The story went on.Fortunately, a friend of Sara’s father found her and told her that her father left a great sum of money to her.I pray and believe that every good person in the world deserve a good result, and of course, we are the same.

英语小说读书笔记
there are two opposite gangs named socs and greasers.kids whose backgrounds are very rich are called socials, we name it as socs.the poor kids are called greasers, because their hair are covered with grease and they often wear greasy clothes.there are full of
contradiction between them.the main character is ponyboy, he is the youngest greaser, and he hates the socs because he always gets jumped by them.darry and sodapop are his elder brothers, and they both
dropped out of school to work in order to raise money for ponyboy ‘s study.through seeing a movie together with a rich but kind girl, cherry, ponyboy realizes that not all socs are bad.johnny is his best friend, he used to be very weak, but after being jumped by 4 socs, he becomes mad and usually brings a switchblade with him, and if there is anyone who wants to play tricks on him, he will kill that one.suddenly, in a week, johnny dies in a fire, bob(his friend)is kill by someone unwillingly, dally(the most violent greaser)kill himself because johnny’s death.ponyboy grows a lot, realize the love of his families and friends, and promises to be a good man, and not fight anymore..this is really a heroic story, and i learnt a lot from it..first of all, i realized that we shouldn’t assess anyone just by knowing about his background.in the book, ponyboy thought that life was unfair-socs always win, greasers always lose.socs could easily go to college, but greasers sometimes must drop out of school to work for their livings.so he hated socs as if from his birth.but he gradually realized that some socs are kind, but some greasers are alike a hood.so we should also know people deeply before judging them, and believe the truth more than our subjective things.secondly, no matter how our backgrounds and families are, we should have kind and brave hearts.in the story, ponyboy saw many greasers crime and fight just because of their identify, he thought that was totally wrong.even his dying friend, johnny told him to
stay gold which means to be kind, simple and pure in a serious health condition.on the other hand, ponyboy thought gresers have the same rights as socs, and he never lowered his head in front of socs.there are also something good about love.at the beginning,ponyboy thought that dally, his eldest brother fully concentrated on working and making money, but never cared about him and sodapop, and he was dislike a young man anymore, more like an adult.but once ponyboy was sick very seriously, he saw dally crying for the first time when he was asleep-going-to-waken-up.and when they were having a rumble with a gang of socs, he was always covered with his two elder brothers.from that, he knew his small family would never be short of love, and his brothers loved him much more than he could imagine.in my real life, when my teachers and parents are strict with me, i shouldn’t think that they don’t love me, it is just another, more deep way to love.the writer wrote this book when he was only a teenager as
fourteen-going-to-fifteen, in the same age as me.so it is more easy for me to get close to him and understand him.but he truly
experienced all i experienced and something i have never imagined.so i should learn something good from him, and keep away from thing bad he had done.this book really taught me a lot, and i will spare no efforts to do the good things it bring to me!

英语小说读后感---A Rose for Emily

《献给爱米丽的一朵玫瑰花》A Rose for Emily by William Faulkner “A Rose for Emily” is a short story by American author William Faulkner first published in the April 30, 1930 issue of Forum.This story takes place in Faulkner's fictional cit
A Rose for Emily——Rousing Our Sorrowful Emotion for Emily
--------Response to A Rose for Emily
After finishing reading this thought-provoking novel, several questions occurring to my mind, for example why does she chose to ruin her own life in the almost sealing house, I just feel sad for the poor Emily from my heart because she could have a brilliant and sunny, happy and merry, enviable and enjoyable life with her family members.However, the bilateral influences of both his father’s education and her compensations about the attitude to the world outsides totally destroy her life and the life of some innocent persons.What we could do is just rousing our sorrowful emotion for the unbelievable Emily.Thinking over this tragedy carefully, it is of no difficulty for us to realize on point that our sorrowful emotion is deserved to Emily in origin and that her life is inevitably unfortunate because of her continual fear for the outside world and her persistent opinion of in-house being safe.Her death is not the end of the event, not the end of reader’s thinking.At the end of the story, the narrator mentions the body of Homer Barron in Emily’s house, which gives explanation to all puzzled scenes arranged above, such as Emily buying the poison, she keeping in the house, her servant being mute and so on.All of things could be linked together as the beads are threaded in one line.We should feel sorrow for the poor Emily when she struggles in the formal education in mental lonely.She has an aspiration for the common and normal life, not the life locked in the terrible house with the friend of loneliness, not the life discarded in the horrible house with the friend of tediousness, not the life littered in the abandon house with the friend of discrimination.She was just a soldier in her in visible war of two contradictory minds, one being out for the dreamy life and the other being in for the safe forever.The appearance of Homer Barron brings the expectation of the new, exciting, hopeful life to Emily.She did enjoy the life with Barron for a certain time as a result of her belief that her brilliant future depends on the Barron.These lead to the tragedy gradually.In my opinion, Emily is really innocent and how stupidly she gambles her future!If she wasn’t addicted in her lover with some rational sense, she will also come out from in-side to out-side and go on enjoy the beautiful life.Unluckily, she chooses
another road of her life when Barron plans to leave away.We should rouse sorrow for the poor Emily when she chooses the wrong way to deal with difficulty with the originally in-side mind that is the winner of the mental war of In-side and Out-side.She turns back to the in-side minds that her father nurtures and even develops this in-side minds because of her irritation and disappointment of the out-side minds.In her eye of the little and innocent girl, the in-side mind is much better than the cheating out-side mind and the in-side mind is , in final, the most safe way to live, at least, there being no cheats in the only-one-existing world.She wants to take Barron in out-side into in-side, thus only by killing her lover can she bring him into the isolated world separated from the normal world.She keeps her secret keeping no trace of other any person, and making her servant mute.Her mind of safe-in –side makes her crazy and leads the abnormal life.What happens to Emily is just rousing our sorrowful emotion for her, the poor woman
