名著神秘花园英语
名著神秘花园英语The Secret Garden is a beloved classic that has enchanted readers for generations with its tale of renewal and the transformative power of nature. Written by Frances Hodgson Burnett and first published in 1911, the novel tells thestory of Mary Lennox, a spoiled and sickly child who is sent to live with her uncle in England after her parents' death.Upon her arrival at the vast and somewhat gloomy Misselthwaite Manor, Mary discovers a neglected garden on the estate. This garden, once a place of joy and beauty, has been locked away and forgotten following the death of her uncle's wife. Intrigued and inspired by the mystery of the garden, Mary embarks on a secret mission to bring it back to life.As the story unfolds, Mary's character develops from a self-centered and lonely child to a compassionate and resourceful young girl. Her journey is aided by new friendships, including the charming Dickon, a local boy with a deep connection to nature, and Colin, her sickly cousin who is believed to be as helpless as the garden itself. Together, they work to restore the garden, a process that mirrors the healing and growth of their own lives.The Secret Garden is not just a story about a physical space; it is a metaphor for the potential within each of us to grow, change, and flourish. The novel explores themes of resilience, the healing power of friendship, and theimportance of connection with the natural world. It is a testament to the idea that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope for rebirth and renewal.The language used in the novel is rich and evocative, painting vivid pictures of the English countryside and the once-forgotten garden. Burnett's descriptions of the garden's revival are particularly enchanting, as she details the budding of flowers and the return of songbirds. The novel's setting becomes a character in its own right, reflecting the emotional landscape of the characters and their journey towards self-discovery and healing.In conclusion, "The Secret Garden" is a timeless masterpiece that continues to resonate with readers of all ages. Its message of hope, the beauty of nature, and the power of friendship and love make it a story that is as relevant today as it was over a century ago. The novel serves as a reminder that even the most desolate of landscapes can be brought back to life with a little bit of care and a lot of heart.。

He pretends madness, he kills bymistake Polonius, Lord Chamberlaine, father of his sweetheart, and is sent on a deadly mission.

The main idea:The speech conveys a sense of world-weariness as well as the author‟s incisive comments on the social reality of his time.Unlike the earlier single-minded avengers, Hamlet lives between action and resolution. He is so contemplative that he examines the nature of the action only to deny its possibility. He considers it better for people to die, but then says nobody knows what happens in the afterlife.3.Argumentative structure:question raised→reasons given and choice made→choice rejected→suspended1.

外国诗人经典名句英语作文
外国诗人经典名句英语作文Title: Classic Lines from Foreign Poets: Insights and Inspirations。
Poetry, often regarded as the language of the soul, transcends boundaries of time, culture, and geography. It's a medium through which human emotions, experiences, and insights find expression. Among the vast tapestry of poetic masterpieces, the verses of foreign poets stand as timeless treasures, resonating across generations and continents. In this essay, we delve into the profound wisdom encapsulated in the classic lines of foreign poets, exploring their significance and enduring relevance.One of the most celebrated foreign poets whose verses continue to captivate hearts and minds worldwide is William Shakespeare. In his renowned play "Hamlet," Shakespeare penned the immortal words, "To be, or not to be: that is the question." These lines encapsulate the existential dilemma faced by the protagonist, inviting readers toponder the nature of existence and the choices that shape our destinies. Beyond the context of the play, these lines serve as a poignant reflection on the human condition, prompting introspection and philosophical contemplation.Moving across the English Channel, we encounter the stirring verses of French poet Charles Baudelaire. In his collection "Les Fleurs du mal" (The Flowers of Evil), Baudelaire explores themes of beauty, decadence, and the complexities of the human psyche. One of his most iconic lines reads, "Always be a poet, even in prose." This injunction speaks to the transformative power ofimagination and the ability to infuse everyday life with poetic sensibility. It reminds us that creativity knows no bounds and that even the most mundane experiences can be imbued with artistry and depth.Turning our gaze towards the Romantic era, we find the evocative poetry of German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. In his magnum opus "Faust," Goethe grapples with themes of knowledge, ambition, and the pursuit of enlightenment. One of the memorable lines from this work is,"Two souls, alas, are housed within my breast." This expression of inner conflict encapsulates the timeless struggle between the noble aspirations of the spirit and the base desires of the flesh. It serves as a reminder of the eternal tension between our higher ideals and our human frailties.Crossing the Atlantic, we encounter the profound verses of American poet Emily Dickinson. Renowned for her introspective lyricism and enigmatic style, Dickinson's poetry delves into themes of nature, mortality, and the mysteries of existence. In one of her most famous lines, she writes, "Because I could not stop for Death – Hekindly stopped for me." This haunting portrayal of death as a gentle escort resonates with readers, inviting contemplation on the inevitability of mortality and the passage of time. Dickinson's exploration of the eternal themes of life and death continues to fascinate and inspire readers around the world.In the realm of Spanish poetry, the words of Pablo Neruda shine brightly as beacons of passion and beauty. Amaster of love poetry, Neruda's verses pulse with sensuality, longing, and a deep reverence for the natural world. In his collection "Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair," Neruda writes, "I want to do with you what spring does with the cherry trees." This vivid imagery evokes the transformative power of love, likening it to the rejuvenating embrace of springtime. Neruda's celebration of love in all its forms speaks to the universal human experience of longing and connection.In conclusion, the classic lines of foreign poets serve as windows into the depths of the human experience,offering insights that transcend linguistic and cultural barriers. Whether exploring the existential quandaries of Shakespeare, the aesthetic ideals of Baudelaire, the philosophical inquiries of Goethe, the introspective musings of Dickinson, or the passionate lyricism of Neruda, these poets remind us of the enduring power of poetry to illuminate the human soul. As we continue to journey through the vast landscape of world literature, may we find solace, inspiration, and enlightenment in the timeless verses of these poetic luminaries.。
高中英语经典范文5篇
高中英语经典范文5篇The high school years are a formative time for many students as they navigate the challenges of adolescence and prepare for the next stage of their academic and personal lives The study of English literature can be a particularly rewarding component of the high school curriculum providing students with the opportunity to engage with timeless works that explore the human experience through the power of language In this essay we will examine five classic English essays that have long been considered essential reading for high school studentsOne of the most renowned English essays is "Self-Reliance" by Ralph Waldo Emerson published in 1841 In this seminal work Emerson extols the virtues of individualism and nonconformity urging readers to trust their own instincts and reject the stifling conformity of society Emerson's powerful rhetoric and philosophical insights have resonated with generations of high school students who are grappling with questions of identity and the pressure to conform "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds" Emerson writes "with consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do" Throughthis essay Emerson encourages readers to march to the beat of their own drum to cultivate their unique talents and perspectives rather than meekly following the crowdAnother classic English essay that has long been a staple of high school curricula is "Civil Disobedience" by Henry David Thoreau published in 1849 In this work Thoreau argues passionately for the right of the individual to disobey unjust laws and to take a moral stand against the tyranny of the state Thoreau drew inspiration from his own act of civil disobedience when he refused to pay taxes to a government that was supporting the institution of slavery and the Mexican-American War which he viewed as an unjust conflict Thoreau's essay has resonated with generations of high school students who are grappling with questions of social justice and the role of the individual in effecting political change "That government is best which governs least" Thoreau famously declares urging readers to resist the overreach of state power and to courageously uphold their moral convictionsThe 20th century saw the emergence of a new generation of English essayists who brought a more personal and introspective voice to the genre One of the most celebrated examples is "Once More to the Lake" by E B White published in 1941 In this essay White reflects on a summer vacation to a lakeside cabin that he had visited as a child evoking powerful memories and exploring the complex relationshipbetween past and present the fleeting nature of time and the enduring power of nostalgia White's lyrical prose and keen observational skills draw the reader into his personal experience as he grapples with the realization that despite the passage of decades little has changed at the lake "The small waves were the same waves I had known since I was a child" he writes "I felt the same damp moss underfoot and saw the same water-soaked sticks and dead leaves floating by the same way" Through this essay White encourages high school students to reflect on their own cherished memories and to consider how the past continues to shape the presentAnother classic 20th century English essay that has long been assigned in high school classrooms is "The Death of the Moth" by Virginia Woolf published in 1942 In this poignant meditation on mortality Woolf observes a moth fluttering against a window pane struggling to maintain its grip on life until it succumbs to the inevitable Woolf's lyrical prose and keen eye for detail draw the reader into this intimate encounter with the natural world as she contemplates the fragility of life and the relentless march of time "The body relaxed and ceased to be a separate thing" Woolf writes "It became a part of the mist" Through this essay Woolf encourages high school students to ponder the universal human experiences of loss and impermanence and to cultivate a greater appreciation for the natural worldThe final classic English essay we will examine is "The Myth of Sisyphus" by Albert Camus published in 1942 In this philosophical treatise Camus explores the concept of the absurd the fundamental disconnect between the human desire for meaning and the inherent meaninglessness of the universe Camus uses the myth of Sisyphus the figure from Greek mythology condemned to eternally roll a boulder up a hill only to watch it roll back down as a metaphor for the human condition "The workman of today works every day in his life at the same tasks and this fate is no less absurd" Camus writes "But it is tragic only at the rare moments when it becomes conscious" Through this essay Camus encourages high school students to grapple with existential questions about the purpose of life and to find ways to find joy and meaning in the face of an indifferent universeIn conclusion these five classic English essays have long been considered essential reading for high school students They tackle a diverse range of themes and perspectives but all share a common thread in their ability to captivate and challenge the reader through the power of language Whether exploring the virtues of individualism the moral imperative of civil disobedience the enduring pull of nostalgia the fragility of life or the absurdity of the human condition these essays have the power to inspire deep reflection and meaningful dialogue in the high school classroom。
小王子英语读后感高一
小王子英语读后感高一The Little Prince is a timeless classic that has captivated readers of all ages for generations. As a high school first-year student reading this beloved tale in English for the first time I was struck by the profound wisdom and universal truths it conveys through the eyes of an innocent child. The story's deceptive simplicity belies the deep philosophical questions it grapples with regarding the nature of human existence and our relationships with others.One of the central themes that resonated strongly with me was the idea of seeing with the heart rather than just the eyes. The Little Prince's encounter with the fox teaches him that what is essential is invisible to the physical eye that is often distracted by superficial appearances. The fox explains "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly what is hidden from view." This lesson is powerfully illustrated when the prince tames the fox and forms a deep bond with him simply by spending time together and getting to know one another.In our modern world so often dominated by technology and instantgratification I found this message particularly poignant. We can become so fixated on the outward trappings of status and success that we lose sight of the truly meaningful connections and inner qualities that give life its richness and purpose. The Little Prince's childlike wonder and capacity for genuine, unhurried engagement with the world around him stands in stark contrast to the preoccupations of the conceited, self-absorbed adults he encounters. His ability to see beyond the obvious and appreciate the hidden depth of things is a powerful reminder to slow down, be present, and attune ourselves to the subtle essences that matter most.Another theme that deeply resonated with me was the prince's search for belonging and the meaning of true friendship. As he travels from planet to planet, he encounters a series of eccentric and self-absorbed grown-ups who are trapped in their own limited perspectives. It is only when he meets the fox that he begins to understand the true nature of friendship - a mutual commitment, a willingness to be vulnerable, and a sharing of one's authentic self. The prince's final goodbye to the fox, where he is told "You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed," is a poignant testament to the depth of their bond and the prince's newfound understanding of the responsibilities that come with caring for another.In our increasingly disconnected world where online relationshipscan so often be shallow and transactional, this depiction of genuine friendship feels all the more vital. The Little Prince's ability to form a deep connection with the fox, to be present with him, and to ultimately accept the pain of their separation, speaks to the kind of relational courage and emotional intelligence that I believe we must cultivate in order to combat the alienation and isolation so pervasive in modern life. His journey reminds us that true belonging is not something that can be obtained, but rather something that must be actively created through the exchange of our authentic selves.Finally, I was deeply moved by the story's exploration of mortality and the acceptance of loss. When the prince encounters the snake who promises to send him back to his home planet, the prince must grapple with the reality of his own death. Yet rather than recoiling in fear, the prince approaches this inevitability with a quiet dignity and grace. He reflects "All grown-ups were once children... but only few of them remember it." In this moment, the prince demonstrates a level of wisdom and emotional maturity that transcends his apparent youth, showing us that the true mark of adulthood lies not in chronological age, but in one's ability to face life's most difficult truths with courage and equanimity.This acceptance of mortality is beautifully juxtaposed with the prince's tender relationship with the rose he left behind on his home planet. His bittersweet farewell to the rose, and his acknowledgmentthat "It is the time you have spent on your rose that makes your rose so important," poignantly captures the ephemeral nature of life and the preciousness of the connections we form. In a world that so often trivializes death and tries to shield us from its reality, The Little Prince reminds us of the vital role that loss, grief, and the acceptance of impermanence play in cultivating a deeper, more meaningful existence.As a high school first-year student, I found The Little Prince to be a profound and transformative reading experience. Its deceptively simple narrative belies the richness of its themes and the universality of its insights. From the importance of seeing with the heart, to the true nature of friendship and belonging, to the acceptance of mortality, this timeless tale has left an indelible mark on my understanding of myself and the world around me. I am grateful to have encountered this masterpiece in my formative years, and I know that its lessons will continue to resonate with me for years to come.。

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful. Once upon a time the little hen went with the little cock to the nut-hill, and they agreed together that whichsoever of them found a kernel of a nut should share it with the other. Then the hen found a large, large nut, but said nothing about it, intending to eat the kernel herself. The kernel, however, was so large that she could not swallow it, and it remained sticking in her throat, so that she was alarmed lest she should be choked. Then she cried, "Cock, I entreat thee to run as fast thou canst, and fetch me some water, or I shall choke." The little cock did run as fast as he could to the spring, and said, "Stream, thou art to give me some water; the little hen is lying on the nut- hill, and she has swallowed a large nut, and is choking." The well answered, "First run to the bride, and get her to give thee some red silk." The little cock ran to the bride and said, "Bride, you are to give me some red silk; I want to give red silk to the well, the well is to give me some water, I am to take the water to the little hen who is lying on the nut-hill and has swallowed a great nut-kernel, and is choking with it." The bride answered, "First run and bring me my little wreath which is hanging to a willow." So the little cock ran to the willow, and drew the wreath from the branch and took it to the bride, and the bride gave him some water for it. Then the little cock took the water to the hen, but when he got there the hen had choked in the meantime, and lay there dead and motionless. Then the cock was so distressed that he cried aloud, and every animal came to lament the little hen, and six mice built a little carriage to carry her to her grave, and when the carriage was ready they harnessed themselves to it, and the cock drove. On the way, however, they met the fox, who said, "Where art thou going, little cock?" "I am going to bury my little hen." "May I drive with thee?" "Yes, but seat thyself at the back of the carriage, for in the front my little horses could not drag thee." Then the fox seated himself at the back, and after that the wolf, the bear, the stag, the lion, and all the beasts of the forest did the same. Then the procession went onwards, and they reached the stream. "How are we to get over?" said the little cock. A straw was lying by the stream, and it said, "I will lay myself across, and you shall drive over me." But when the six mice came to the bridge, the straw slipped and fell into the water, and the six mice all fell in and were drowned. Then they were again in difficulty, and a coal came and said, "I am large enough, I will lay myself across and you shall drive over me." So the coal also laid itself across the water, but unhappily just touched it, on which the coal hissed, was extinguished and died. When a stone saw that, it took pity on the little cock, wished to help him, and laid itself over the water. Then the cock drew the carriage himself, but when he got it over and reached the other shore with the dead hen, and was about to draw over the others who were sitting behind as well, there were too many of them, the carriage ran back, and they all fell into the water together, and were drowned. Then the little cock was left alone with the dead hen, and dug a grave for her and laid her in it, and made a mound above it, on which he sat down and fretted until he died too, and then every one was dead.
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful. 80. The Death of the Little Hen
