The Call of the Wild
It is a book written by Jack London , one of my favourite American writers , who intends to reflect the characteristics of humanity especially in the the period of gold rush by the image of an dog called Buck.Before entering the college , I have read the chinese vision of the book.And recently , I watched the film based on it.It is really wonderful.So I choose the book again.As far as I am concerned , the book can be divided into 3 parts in general.In the firsr place , Buck lived in a happly life.He is the lovely pet of the Miller.He can get sufficient food everyday.We can even say that he has the same status as our human.To some degree , I am jealous of him as he does not have to worry about anything.All that he needs to do is to be loyal to his master.It is an easy thing.However , happy time is always short.In the second place , Buck experienced much difficulity just as that we human have to suffered.First of all , Buck was stolen by the gardener and sold out under the lure of money.Then he began his journey to the north which was against his willingness.However, He have no choice but to obey the new violent master after his being beaten by him.He tried to fight against him but in vain.As a result , he became more frail on the contrary.Then he came to realize the principle of “law of the jungle” , which was applied to the primitive society.However, I think it is still ture more or less in modern society.Next, he became more aware of the priciple as he was not the only one that was raised by the Perrault and Francois.He had a lot of companies , some of which were friendly while others were not.At that time , Spitz was the group leader.He was not in harmony with him.However , Buck was clever.He beared all these suffering and defeated Spitz in the end.But then , he encountered a curl master Hal who was impatient and wanted to kill the hard-toiled dogs.Thanks to Thornton , he was survived.Then they continued their journey.There life was hard ,but he can felt the warmth given to him by Thornton.Then one day , he heard the call of the wolf.He was shocked and wanted to go with him , however , he is unwilling to leave Thornton alone.For example , “he for two days and nights never left camp, never let Thornton out of his sight.He followed him about at his work, watched him while saw him into blankets at night and out of them in the morning…"(Chapter VII).I was deeply moved by him.However , at last, Thornton was killed by Indians.It was a pity.In the third place , it was the call of the wild.Buck almost have nothing that can not give up and went to live with the wolves eventually.Is it a good thing or bad ? I can not tell.I feel that things are really really complicated.But I just want to dig out a true meaning of life.we human are animals in essence.we are just advanced amimals.Nowadays , people are all living under their masks.what do you think of this phenomenon ? Is it right or wrong ? certainly , there is no so-called correct answer.Despite of everything , I think we should be at least more straightforward and candid to others than before and answer the call of wild that is to say , simplicity
and purity(in my opinion).In all , I conceive that I may have some different or even opposite thoughts the next time when I read the book again.Anyway , I do love the brave , strong and sincere Buck.

The call of the wild
It tells a story about a gigantic dog who was called Buck.It was stolen from a rich and comfortable home by the man who was in debt.Then buck was forced to learn to survive as an Alaskan sled dog(阿拉斯加雪橇犬).Buck encountered his true owner John Thornton who is very friendly and kindhearted after a long terrify life.Finally, John’s incidental death break Buck’s last tie to the man and drives him into the call of the wild.In this story, Buck and John simply adopt themselves to answer the call of the wild.Buck will eventually leave John one day even if the incidental death does not happen to John.Buck just wanted to help his master finish the gold-rush-trip when the wild comes to his mild.‘From then on, night and day, never put a halt, in desperation, he burst into long stretch of fight, did not to stay him(John)’.Buck wished to remember John’ image forever.I could not hold my tears bursting.Can a real man devote himself to loyalty and friendship in such a way? On the other hand, John Thornton is not only a dog-lover but also a brave and venturous man.He is so straightforward and simple that makes him an accommodating man.Once he firmly roots a goal into his heart, it seems that nothing could prevent him from accomplishing it except death.I do not know whether the persistence is the most vital element to make a man successful, but what I know is that you are not far away from success once you occupy it.It is Jack London who let us into the animated wild from the hustle-and-bustle and from desperate city.There, I merely cannot deny the attraction of Buck’s bark, which enlightens me to pursue another lost half of the nature in mankind, and to dig out a true meaning of life.What is the essence of human beings? What is the civilization to us? Do we need to look back at where we came from? Is it good or bad for us to speak out what we think and to do what the consciences demand us to? It is thought-provoking.

第四篇:《野性的呼唤》英文读后感
A Review of The Call of The Wild After reading The Call of The Wild, I have a lot of feelings.First, the dogs in the book are all loyal to their masters.For example, a man makes a wager with Thornton over Buck's strength and devotion.Buck wins the bet by breaking a half-ton sled out of the frozen ground, then pulling it 100 yards by himself.In addition, all dogs have sense of honor.They are all proud of being sled dogs, and devote themselves to the work.For example, Dave, who is going to die, still insists on working.“Sick as he was, Dave resented being taken out, grunting and growling while the traces were unfastened and whimpering broken-heartedly when he saw Sol-leks(another dog)in the position he had held and served so long.For the pride of trace and trail was his, and, sick to death, he could not bear that another dog should do his work.”
Both loyalty and honor are based on love which is what touches me deeply.Because of love to Thornton, Buck does such thing that seems impossible to accomplish.Because of sense of honor, Dave insists on working till he dies.And through Buck’s experiences living in the wild, Jack London wants to tell us that the world is dominated by those who are much stronger and more powerful than common people, and only the stronger ones could exist.This is the law of club and fang.Buck gradually realizes the law and begins to obey the law after he is stolen and taken to the wild.The savage environment which is full of tricks, dangers and deaths turns him to be more powerful and cunning.Finally, he becomes the leader of his team.Similar to the wild, our society becomes crueler and crueler, and living in the society becomes harder and harder.If you want to exist, to have a good life, you should be tough enough to stand the sufferings;you should keep alert, watch and learn;you should make yourself stronger than others.This is the law of living.As we know, Buck answers the call of and returns to the wild finally.In my opinion, the call is not from the wild though Buck often hears the howl of the wolves.Instead, it is from the bottom of Buck’s heart.The call is the will or the instinct which makes him want to be himself: A wolf.I think every one of us has a call in our hearts.The call is our dream, goal or something we really want to do.However, under the pressure of society, we often have to give up our dreams or goals, and do things we are unwilling to do.So we should learn something from Buck: Just follow the call, and be yourself!
第五篇:野性的呼唤英文读后感
Goethe said, “Reading good books is like a conversation with the man of noble.”Only if will you learn something about the writer,Jack London,you can follow the idea of his book, The Call of the Wild.Jack London was a very famous realistic writer.He was also a strong sailor and a war correspondent.He was born in 1876,San Francisco, California.It is believed that he is the illegitimate son of an astrologer whose name was William Chaney.His family was poor----no fixed occupations, and no fixed residence.So Jack had to take some time off to work and support his family.Jack’s extensive life experiences is very difficult.When he was 20, Jack entered the University of California.But he dropped out of school after only one semester because he didn’t have enough money to pay the tuition fee.In 1897, he went to Alaska to join the Gold Rush.Although didn’t getting much gold, he found lots of ideas for his books and stories.Then he went back home and began to write.In 1900, he put out of his first novel----The Son of the Wolf,shocking the literary circle.From then on, with many of his new short novels published he began to have a place in the American literature world.Later Jack became the best-selling, highest paid and most popular American author of his time.Fifty-one of his books and hundreds of his articles had been published.His most notable books include The Call of the Wild which was published in 1903, belongs to the type which is about the life of the polar region.It is the book that we are talking about.His writings have been translated into many languages and to many of his works were widely read among the world.Most of his works are full of positive emotions including energetic, enjoying, enthusiastic, exhilarated and brave, and full of hardworking.As his writings were warmly welcomed and he became rich and famous when he was under thirty.But Jack London was not a happy man.In poor health.He took his own life in 1916.He was then only forty years old.Now let’s back to this book.It is a novel about a dog named Buck, a St.Bernard and Scotland shepherd dog hybrids.The difference is that Buck was the dog who didn’t live in human’s mythology nor as friend with men in human’s social.He was a dog living in a frozen and snow-covered land.He was a dog who shocks readers’ mind.Buck lived in a judge’s family in the southern,enjoying a rich life,accepting people's respect.But all his life changed after people found gold in the north.Burk faced his first rude treatment.He was sold to a guy in the red sweater.Then he was beaten and be in dead faint once again.After many times fell down he knew that there would have no way out to freedom in front of these people.I think the violence he faced was the key to his wild,to learn the low of jungle.If the key was the violence,the main body of the lesson was the life Buck leaved with his friends.It made the wild hidden in Buck gradually awake.Burk was soldagain.This time he joined in a sledding team.He got lots of ways of being while living with his new partners.Dog Parker taught him how to steal food to fill the stomach.In fact no one want to steal if one can make end one’s meet.From Dog Beeley he learned how to find water on the snow-land.Now I have to refer to a Dog Pitts who was the leader of the sledding team.It rememberd Buck the slaying skills.Buck was an enemy of Pitts,so he was offen defied by Pitts.At first,Buck forbore.On the one hand,he was learning how to live in the snow-land,learning how to slay.On the other hand,his red-bloody was resurrected by the Dog Pitts.Finally he beat Pitts.Once the wild rose,the call from the wild attracted Buck day and night.The call of the wild is spine-chilling,but Buck echoed happlily and excitedly.During a hunting Buck found it’s interesting when he killed others.Finally,he became the King of the Wolf after he fought with many a wolf in the forest.The way to success of Buck is like a man’s transformation.He finally became a king of the wild from a cute puppy dog is because of his loyalty, patience and ambition.The Loyalty.Loyalty is dogs first advantage,Buck is no exception.Because of his loyalty he could live to meet his the most anticipated master.The loyalty to his master gave him a way to improve himself,so he could be a king dog finally.The patience.Buck had a great patience.It made him change the role and help him quickly adapt to the new environment.He patient all the violence.Finally he defeated the last king-dog.The ambition.Maybe the ambition is not a commendatory term,but there will not be a more appropriate word to describe him.With his ambition,Buck didn’t reconciled to be a third-class dog.So he won,though he paid the bloody price,to be the king-dog.He was driven to be the best by his ambition.Maybe the the intensity of competition and social cruelty is the wild of human beings in modern world.It is wild that brings the desire to conquer all the world.Like Buck,when all the things in the world told him there are only 2things—to conquer and be conquered, the indomitable spirit from the heart was recalled cause he knew that it was the way of being.In today's competitive world the line that separates a hit from a flop is thin.Man can never stop to have a little hesitate.We can only valiantly accepted the challenge,then conquer it.But the wild is not only bloodiness,it also brings deep friendship.When Buck’s last master John died,he cried into the air,sadly and loyalty.The love between Buck and John is the other side of the wild.What I want to say is life and the world is complex,the complexity is because of its wild—the original ingredient of the world.It brings the world to life and push it to the hell.It is WILD.It has loyal,it has cunning;it has love,it has enmity;it brings life,it destroys one’s life.Let it go,it is the real life,beautiful and flossy.It will live on and never leave.That is the WILD.
