我最喜爱的书《红楼梦》英文简介 PPT
The most famous method the author used in this book is the homophonic allusion（谐音）. We can see this performance everywhere.
For example, the 贾宝玉 voiced like 假宝玉，the 林黛玉 voiced like 怜待玉，the name of the four miss in mansion house of Jia called元 迎探惜,is voiced like原应叹息and so on.
The gift weak makes her a negative person and always thinks things with a native attitude. But we should admit that , lindaiyu is a beautiful girl ,and full of knowledge . The poetry She loves jiabaoyu and their love are Platon love(柏拉图式的恋爱）. She is a fool in love(情痴)。She is bored for love ,lived for love and died for love. As the book said in the first ,she is bored to pay a debt of gratitude。
There are many beautiful poets in this book. Such as Five beautiful songs(五美吟）, qiuchuangfengyuxi（秋窗 风雨夕） and so on. there are also many delicious food in the book, like Fried quail, Pheasant soup, Ham and bamboo shoots soup and Crab dumplings and so on.

红楼梦林黛玉-陈晓旭英语PPT
Willows and elms, fresh and verdant, Care not if peach and plum blossom drift away; Next year, though once again you may peck the buds, From the beam of an empty room your nest will fall. Each year for three hundred and sixty days, The cutting wind and biting frost contend. How long can beauty flower fresh and fair? In a single day wind can whirl it to its end. 柳丝榆荚自芳菲，不管桃飘与李飞。 桃李明年能再发，明年闺中知有谁? 三月香巢初垒成，梁间燕子太无情。 明年花发虽可啄，却不道人去梁空巢也倾。 一年三百六十日，风刀霜剑严相逼。 明媚香妍能几时，一朝飘泊难寻觅。
Flower Funeral Song As blossoms fade and fly across the sky, Who pities the faded red, the scent that has been? Softly the gossamer floats over spring pavilions, Gently the willow fluff wafts to the embroidered screen. A girl in her chamber mourns the passing of spring, No relief from anxiety her poor heart knows, Hoe in hand she steps through her portal, Loath to tread on the blossom as she comes and goes. 花谢花飞飞满天，红消香断有谁怜? 游丝软系飘春榭，落絮轻沾扑绣帘。 闺中女儿惜春暮，愁绪满怀无释处。 手把花锄出绣闱，忍踏落花来复去。

大卫·霍克斯译的《枉凝眉》 Hope Betrayed One was a flower from paradise, One a pure jade without spot or stain. If each for the other one was not intended, Then why in this life did they meet again? And yet if fate had meant them for each other, Why was their earthly meeting all in vain? In vain were all her sighs and tears, In vain were all his anxious fears: All,insubstantial,doomed to pass, As moonlight mirrored in the water Or flowers reflected in a glass. How many tears from those poor eyes could flow, Which every season rained upon her woe?

贾宝玉：荣国府衔玉而诞的公子，前世真身为赤霞宫神瑛侍 者，现世贾政与王夫人之次子。
他作为荣国府的嫡派子孙，出身不凡，聪明灵秀，阖府捧为掌上明珠，对他寄 予厚望，他却走上了叛逆之路，痛恨八股文，批判程朱理学，给那些读书做官 的人起名“国贼禄蠹”。他不喜欢“正经书”，却偏爱《牡丹亭》《西厢记》 之类的“杂书”。他终日与家里的女孩们厮混，爱她们美丽纯洁，伤悼她们的 薄命悲剧。
作者简介
他蔑视权贵，远离官场，过着贫困如洗的艰难日子。曹雪芹 素性放达，爱好广泛，对金石、诗书、绘画、园林、中医、 织补、工艺、饮食等均有所研究。他以坚韧不拔的毅力，历 经多年艰辛，终于创作出极具思想性、艺术性的伟大作品— —《红楼梦》。曹雪芹移居北京西郊后，生活更加穷苦， “满径蓬蒿”，“举家食粥酒常赊”。 乾隆二十七年（1762年），幼子夭亡，他陷于过度的忧伤 和悲痛，卧床不起。乾隆二十八年（1763年）除夕（2月12 日），因贫病无医而逝。关于曹雪芹逝世的年份，另有乾隆 二十九年除夕（1764年2月1日）、甲申（1764年）初春之 说。
好句赏析
"两弯似蹙非蹙笼烟眉，一双似喜非喜含情目，态生两靥之愁，娇袭一身之病。泪光点点， 娇喘微微。闲静似娇花照水，行动如弱柳扶风。心较比干多一窍，病如西子胜三分。”
这句写林黛玉。这个只是虚的表面描写，用词自是如王维诗化般的语言，并不能很深刻 的揭示出林黛玉的性格。
