characters: the little prince, the pilot, the rose, the fox, the snake, etc.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 se nsation 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.on his all-alone journey, the little prince meets different kinds of people, which includes a king, a conceited man, a tippler, a businessman, a lamplighter and a geographer. from these people he gets a conclusion that the grown-ups are very odd. following the instruction of the geographer, he descends in the sahara, on the earth.traveling on the earth, the little prince, who sees a garden of five-thousand roses, is overcome with astonishment and sadness, as he considers his rose is unique in the universe before. at that time a fox appears. the fox, who tell the little prince about the meaning of the word ―tame‖, becomes his new friend. at the time to say farewell, the fox makes him know that his rose is unique because she is his rose and tamed by him. from that the little prince begins to treasure friendship and be responsible to his rose.at the anniversary day of his descent of the earth, rejecting the pilot’s advice, he goes back to his own planet by bite of a snake. ―it’s too far. i can not carry this body with me. it’s too heavy.‖ he said. he tells his friend, the pilot, he must be responsible for his rose, so he has to go back. at the end the author doesn’t tell us the ending directly. maybe it’s more significant for us to imagine, and for more, think over.one of the important characters is the rose. growing on the planet, she is very beautiful, but her coquetry and vanity suffer the little prince a lot. in spite of they love each other, he soon becomes unhappy. on the time of his departure, he just knows she certainly loves him. the character of the little prince actually represents the children, and their native thoughts and deeds. on the contrary, the inhabitants on the other planets, such as the king, the businessman and the conceited man, they also reflect the defects in the grown-up’s world. the real theme of this fairy-tale with a little sadness, i guess, is the consequence of pure love and friendship in our lives, but not others ―matters of consequence‖ of the grown-ups.unbelievable, this little book moved me a lot. i seldom think about the true meaning of love and life before. well, now i can say, with my short sixteen-year’s life experience, it’s like the stars in the sky that lit my heart. the little prince is not only an ordinary fairy-tale for children, but also for grown-ups, and our teenagers. nevertheless, when i read this book, i feel a little sad – about ourselves, whom are losing more and more innocence.five questions:q1: in what kinds of occasion that the pilot makes the acquaintance of the little prince?a1: the pilot has an accident with his plane in the desert of sahara, without any mechanics or passengers. the first night, when sleeping in the sand, he is awakened by a little odd voice calling him to draw him a sheep. then he sees a most extraordinary small boy stand there. in that case he makes the acquaintance of the little prince.q2: why the little prince become doubt about the flower after a piece of time?a2: the flower begins very quickly to torment the little prince with her vanity. for instance, she always force herself cough a little so that he should suffer from remorse just the same. in spite of all the good will that is inseparable from his love, has soon come to doubt her.q3: why the little prince plunge in to deep dejection when he visits the tippler’s planet?a3: the tippler is drinking there. when the little prince asks why he drink, he says so he might forget. when the boydemands what he forget, he says he forget that he is ashamed. when the little prince asks what he ashamed of, he says he forget the ashamed of drinking. the circulated answer seems to be absurd and ridiculous. so the little prince plunges in to deep dejection.q4: what’s the meaning of the word ―tame‖ that the fox tells the little prince?a4: ―tame‖, is an act too often neglected, which means to establish ties. according to the fox, to him now, the little prince is nothing more than a little boy, and he is nothing more than a fox, like the others. they both have no needs of each other, but if the little prince tames him, they will need each other. theywill be unique in each other’s worlds.q5: why the little prince knows that the rose of him is unique in the world at last?a5: because his rose is not like the other five-thousand roses planted in the garden. he thinks in herself all alone she is more important that all he hundreds of others. because it is she he has watered. it is she that he has put under the glass globe; because it is she that he has sheltered behind the screen; because it is for her that he has killed the caterpillars, except the two or three that they save to become butterflies; because it is she that he has listened to, when she grumbles, or boasts, or even sometimes when she says nothing; because she is his rose.【雾都孤儿】here i am sitting on a couch alone, thinking about what i have just finished reading with tears of sadness filling my eyes and fire of indignation filling my heart, which revived my exhausted soul that has already been covered by the cruelty and the selfishness of the secular world for a long time. it is truly what i felt after reading oliver twist, written by the prominent british author charles dickens.the resonance between me and the book makes me feel not only the kindness and the wickedness of all the characters in the novel, but what this aloof society lacks, and what i lack deep inside. these supreme resources i’m talking about right now are somewhat different from minerals, oil that we usually mention. they’re abstract like feelings, and some kinds ofspiritual stimulation that all of us desire anxiously from one another —— love and care.those charitable figures whom dickens created in the novel are really what we need in life. they showed love and care to others, just as the gentle rain from the sky fell upon the earth, which was carved into my heart deeply.mr. brownlow is one such person.the other day he had one of his elaborate watches stolen by two skilled teenage thieves, artful dodger and charley bates, and thought naturally it was oliver, who was an orphan and forced to live with a gang of thieves, that had done it because he was the only one near by after the theft had taken place. being wrathful, he caught oliver, and sent him to the police station where the ill-tempered, unfair magistrates worked. fortunately for him, oliver was proved innocent by one onlooker afterwards. with sympathy, mr. brownlow took the injured, poor oliver to his own home. there oliver lived freely and gleefully for some months as if he were mr. brownl ow’s own son. one day, however, mr. brownlow asked oliver to return some books to the bookseller and to send some money for the new books that he had already collected. the thief oliver once stayed with kidnapped him. after that he disappeared in mr. brown low’s life. searching for a while, mr. brownlow had to believe the fact that he had run away with his money. but dramatically, they came across each other again a few years later. without hesitation, mr. brownlow took oliver home for the second time not caring if he had done something evil.perhaps most of us would feel confused about mr. brownlow’s reaction. but as a matter offact, this is just the lesson we should learn from him. jesus said in the bible. ―forgive not seven times, but seventy-times seve n.‖ why is that? because forgiveness is our ability to remove negative thoughts and neutralize them so our energy may be spent on doing what we came here for. we cannot move forward in our future if past issues cloud our thinking. stop put mr. brownlow into the list of your models. always give people a second chance no matter what they might have done. that’s also a substantial part of loving and caring others.then there are mrs. maylie and rose, oliver’s other benefactors. maybe the reason they loved and cared oliver wasnot because of forgiveness. in my point of view, it was trust. they had faith in oliver when he was considered to be a filthy burglar who tried to break the front door of maylie’s at midnight. but this wasn’t how these two ladies saw the whole thing. they denied oliver’s crime immediately and listened attentively to oliver’s own description of his miserable life. they were deeply touched by oliver’s strong perseverance and astonishing vitality. accordingly, they remedied oliver’s body and heart and turned him into a different boy. he began to wear appropriate and clean suits which were tailor-made for him and receive education.as far as we can see, it is trust that helps us all live together without precaution. sometimes trust can even lead us to miracles, which we often expect to come about, so why not trust? trust yourself, trust others, and you’ll salute miracles every single day.in the novel, though the young oliver again and again fell for conspiracies of those hideous thieves, who tried to torture oliver’s body and poisoned oliver’s heart intensely, he always lived on and tried hard to seek for his own life. then i realized what supported him all through were actually beliefs. in most cases, what you believe is what you’ll become. believe that you are unlimited, that you can do anything you commit to doing, and when you do, your accomplishments will know no bounds. you control your beliefs and that is how you ultimately control your life. it’s all dictated by your attitude.in the final analysis, love and care contain numerous forms, there are love of forgiveness, love of trust, etc. but they all come from your beliefs in life. when someone tells you he’s deceived you, forgive him anyway, when someone tells you what he’s done, tru st him anyway, and when you face adversities while chasing your dreams, think about your beliefs, then what hinders you will become a piece of cake in no time.so find out ―olivers‖ in your life and do as mr. brownlow and mrs. maylie do: love them and care them, which cost nothing but save much. they eich those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. they can be certain smallest words or actions, but the memory of them sometimes last forever.charles dickens said:―love makes the world go around.‖ these immortal words have inspired and will keep on inspiring us to chant the melody of love and to say the prayer of care forevermore. let us, therefore, enjoy life and treat other people lovingly. these principles are the roots and foundations of beliefs supporting this article and our mission together.【呼啸山庄】many people in the world are trying to find a perfect companion.some of these may marry and not know what their new husband or wife is like.this kind of situation often leads to separation or hostility. other situations may develop between two friends that stem from jealousy, desire for revenge, uncaring parents, etc. emily bront?s wuthering heights displays several characteristics of destructive relationships. three of these are uncaring parents, marriage without knowing the person, and jealousy.this element of destructive behavior may stem from an unhappy marriage in which the husbands or wives dont know each other. this had happened between isabella and heathcliff. isabella did not really know heathcliff when she married him, but after she had married him she saw that heathcliff was not a gentleman at all. to declare her feelings she wrote is heathcliff a man? if so, is he mad? and if not, is he a devil? i shant tellmy reasons for making this inquiry; but i beseech you to explain, if you can, what i have married ...(125). another example of this is when catherine married edgar linton. although she had been happy at the beginning of the marriage, she thought having parties all the time was going to be fun. yet, after a while, she became bored. she also realized that she loved heathcliff more than edgar and would always love heathcliff.this enlightenment created separation between edgar and catherine during the final hours of cathys life. anadditional marriage which was made that was doomed was the one between catherine and linton. because this was a forced marriage, cathy had not yet learned all she could aboutlinton.because she did not know until after the marriage that linton was selfish and inconsiderate, she became distressed and grew isolated in the house.these three failed marriages described in this novel show that knowing the person you will marry is very important.while these marriages took place,jealousy also took a hold in some relationships. one exampleof this is when mr. earnshaw starts to favor heathcliff over his own son, hindley. because of this, hindley becomes jealous of young heathcliff and sets out to make heathcliffs life a nightmare. hindleys jealousy becomes evident when he says ,... be damned you beggarly interloper! and wheedle my father out of all he has; only afterwards show him what you are, imp of satan.(35). jealousy was also found very notably in the relationship between heathcliff and edgar linton.【篇三：英文名著读后感1500词】英文名著读后感1500词oliver twist, one of the most fam ous works of charles dickens’, is a novel reflecting the tragic fact of the life in britain in 18th century.the author who himself was born in a poor family wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks of those cruelcriminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneath the narrow and dirty streets in london.the hero of this novel was oliver twist, an orphan, who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime. he suffered enormous pain, such as hunger, thirst, beating and abuse. while reading the tragic experiences of the little oliver, i was shocked by his sufferings. i felt for the poor boy, but at the same time i detested the evil fagin and the brutal bill. to my relief, as was written in all the best stories, the goodness eventually conquered devil and oliver lived a happy life in the end. one of the plots that attracted me most is that after the theft, little oliver was allowed to recover in the kind care of mrs. maylie and rose and began a new life. he went for walks with them, or rose read to him, and he worked hard at hislessons. he felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime and hardship and poverty.how can such a little boy who had already suffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? the reason is the nature of goodness. i think it is the most important information implied in the novel by dickens-he believed that goodness could conquer everydifficulty. although i don’t think goodness is omnip otent, yet i dobelieve that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded.for me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person. goodness is to humans what water is to fish. he who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person. on the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘the fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose’, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person. people receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself.to my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt theexistence of the goodness in humanity. they look down on people’s hones ty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted. as a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others. on the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit. in their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility. if they cannot get profit from showing their ‘kindness’, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down. they are one of the sorts that i really detest.fra ncis bacon said in his essay, ‘goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin.’that is to say a person without goodness is destined to loseeverything. therefore, i, a kind person, want to tell those‘vermin-。
