第一篇：the Call of the Wild英文读后感
Abstract: I read The Call of the Wild during May Day, a novel by Jack London who was an American author.Buck, a domesticated dog living at a ranch in the Santa Clara valley of California is the novel's central character.Unfortunately, he is stolen by the gardener and sold into the brutal existence of an Alaskan sled dog.He reverts to atavistic traits.Buck has to adjust to, and survive, cruel treatments and fight to dominate other dogs in a harsh climate.He sheds the veneer of civilization, relying on primordial instincts and lessons he learns, to emerge as a leader in the wild at last.While reading the story of Buck, I shed tears of sorrow and sympathy, and was moved by great courage and the bravery he has shown in the face of every challenge.The only thing I can do is to cheer for him in silence and wish he can be stronger to fight with difficulties.From Buck, what I have learnt is to fight bravely and intellectually until the last minute in my life.And that is a great asset we should learn to gain.I choose the book to finish my book report just because I appreciate Buck very much.Key words: brave, perseverance, The Call of the Wild, survival, fighting
First of all, I would like to mention the author Jack London when I share my views of The Call of the Wild.London was a passionate
advocate of unionization, socialism, and the rights of workers and wrote several powerful works dealing with these topics such as his dystopian novel The Iron Heel, his non-fiction exposé The People of the Abyss, and The War of the Classes.[1]From his works, we can easily see that Jack London writes books in a way of realism and naturalism.Also the reflection of naturalism is manifested in The Call of the Wild.With The Call of the Wild published in 1903, it made a reputation for London.As early as 1908 the novels was adapted to film and it has since seen several more cinematic adaptations.The book secured London a place in the canon of America literature.The Call of the Wild is one of the masterpieces of Jack London, which was combined with his experiences in the north when he was engaged in looking for gold.[3]
The story was written as a frontier adventure and in such a way that it worked well as a serial., it is good episodic writing that embodies the style of magazine adventure writing popular in that period.“It leaves us with satisfaction at its outcome, a story well and truly told,” As Doctorow points out he said.As we can know(if you have read the book), Buck has a lot of excellent quality, such as loyalty, powerful, intelligence and valiant fighting.At the same time, Buck is thankful.He will return for
someone who is good to him.Just like John Thornton, a man had saved his life and became his ideal master, Buck saves the guy’s live and protect him in all time.“For a long time after his rescue, Buck did not like Thornton to get out of his sight.”, ”At such times he would shake off sleep and creep through the chill to the flap of the tent, where he would stand and listen to the sound of his master’s breathing.”[4] You have to admit that you also feel warmly when you across these sentence.Here, I feel Buck’s endless love for his master.When John Thornton was killed, for the first time in his life he allowed passion to usurp cunning and reason, and it was because of his great love for John Thornton that he lost his head.I do not think Buck will go back forest if John Thornton did not lose his live.Perhaps this is one aspect that Buck does better than most people.As far as I am concerned, you can lose everything, but a thankful heart.Heart of appreciation is of great significance in our lives.A grateful heart is full, it is happy!
After a long honed metaphor, in the face of harsh persecution or against without weakness and fearless, Buck became stronger.Buck’s response to the call of the wild was actually the continued the process of mining process of their own potential.To survive, he fights with the cold weather;to survive, he fights with other dogs;
to survive, he fights with human.With the fierce struggle and the ability to quickly adapt to the environment, he turns to be the strong.You would admire that Buck is excellent to pursuit life himself.However difficult, he pulls through in the end.He is the last winner.There is something we can learn from Buck’s world.The law of club is one of them.When Buck was forced to sell the new owner, he tried to fight in his own way to show his unwilling.However, the law of club forced him to surrender the principles of the master.Of course it is wise of him to do so.It makes readers feel he is not a dog, because it owns the quality and characteristics we human have.No one would be so stupid that he still try it on the occasions of weak.Even in the true world of human, many people will choose to show themselves forbearing and conciliatory for the sake of the common good.They would not parade their superiority and strive to outshine others.I really appreciate it when Buck acts likes that he is tame to avoid the club.Now, here comes the theme of the book.The themes are conveyed through London's use of symbolism and imagery which, according
to Labor, vary in the different phases.The imagery and symbolism in the first phase, to do with the journey and self-discovery, shows physical violence, with strong images of pain and blood.[2]
In this novel, London wants to tell us that Buck is a symbol of the stronger.He reflects the world through the description of the dog world.In his eyes, Buck is a man who is brave and honest instead of a dog.Here the strongest man takes all, and strength alone knows conflict, weakness is below even defeat, and is born vanquished.So buck must be adhered to it at all times.Once he surrenders or is knocked down, he would be the underdog and governed by others or even be killed.Actually, the primary theme of the story is of survival and a return to primitivism.But we can grasp more in Buck’s world.Personal speaking, based on Buck’s tough life in the nature, it is easy to associate with my future life in society.All kind of unknown difficulties is waiting for me.I am not sure if I can perform as well as Buck, but I certainly believe that I will try my best to face the challenges on the road of my life.What I want to be is the female strong, maybe not the strongest one.But I am able to calmly deal with my life, and that is enough.

The impression of Pride and Prejudice
The book《 Pride and Prejudice》 iswrittenby Jane Austen , a famous English writer.I still remember the first sentence in this
book.It reads :“It is a truth well known to all the world that an unmarried man in possession of a large fortune must in need of a wife.” The undertone is very clear : the foundation of the marriage at that time is not emotion but possession.Love seems to be a perpetual theme all the time.And the main story in the book Pride and Prejudice is not a exception.The writer tells us her views and attitudes about love and marriage in this book.The novel mainly tells us a love story between Elizabath and Mr.Darcy.It is at a ball that Elizabeth meets Mr.Darcy for the first time and his pride and supercilious behaviors has left Elizabeth a terrible impression.This is the reason why Elizabeth's prejudice towards him begins.Besides this
reason ,there are two other incidents strengthens Elizabeth's prejudice.The first is that Wickham
speaks ill of Mr.Darcy, which makes Elizabeth thinks him is unworthy to making acquaince of.The second is that Elizabeth regards Darcy is the person who
separates her sister Jane and Mr.Bingley.But with the plots developing ,Darcy has changed himself and become no longer pride ,he also helps Jane and Bingley's reunion.All these factor change
Elizabeth's attitude towards Darcy.Eventually , Elizabeth and Darcy become a couple and lead a happy life from then on.After reading this novel, I realize the
author—Jane Austen’s attitudes and viewstowards love and marriage: is unpractical to get married just for property, wealth and social status while would it be without caring about these elements.Marriage should be based on a real love and it is not a game!You can not just enjoy it without prudent
considerations.There is a gap which is called pride and prejudice between Elizabeth and Darcy , for they possess different society status and amount of property.But the ending which the author arranges that Elizabeth and Darcy break all the obstacles and
become a love couple suggests that true do exist no matter how different the background ,the status is.And I think this book will arouse people’s awareness of the importance of true love in a marriage.

The Necklace: Reflections and Confessions of Human’s Vanity
“What would have happened if she hadn’t lost that necklace? Who knows? Who knows? How strange and changeful is life!How small a thing is needed to make or ruin us!” This is what impressed me most in “The Necklace” written by Guy de Maupassant.I love the story not only due to the incredibly wonderful ending, but also because of the exquisite description of the weakness of humanity.In his story, Guy de Maupassant creatively reveals Mathilde Loisel's dreams of a wealthy, splendid lifestyle.Mathilde's lifetime of misery and despair is solely caused by her own selfish acts.And her vain obsession all ended up ruining her life.Vanity is defined as excessive pride, especially in your appearance.In Mathilde's case, the “excessive pride” in her looks and charm caused her to feel as if she deserved a higher ranking social class and the wealth.When she wore the necklace to the party, she wanted to give the illusion that she was something that she was not.Vanity caused Mathilde to fantasize about her life and surroundings-to live in a world of illusion, rather than reality.Her life was affected in a negative way because of her obsession with vanity.It is so sad that she honestly felt successful the night of the dinner, just because of her looks and her surroundings.What a distorted
view of true happiness and fulfillment!Neither an elegant dress or a
beautiful piece of jewelry can make a person who they are.A caring and
loving person has to be unselfish.Mathilde Loisel definitely lacked a
caring and loving personality.The only person she proved to love was
the person she wanted to be.Had Mathilde not spent so much of her life
selfishly, she and Mr.Loisel could have had a lifetime of happiness.The
most ironic and interesting piece of the story is the conclusion.Their
lives were ruined for no reason.Had she told Mrs.Forrestier the truth
about the lost necklace, she would have known that the necklace was
just costume jewelry.Actually, it’s a tragedy made by herself, for she
was conquered by the evil of her heart.In pursuit of vanity may lead to the loss of ourselves.Accept who
we are and to be to true to ourselves or else it will contribute to
constant unhappiness.Happiness or misfortune, it all depends.
