300-word encyclopedia of essays after reading famous works

Reading How Steel was Tempered is a lifelong yearning and pursuit. A person without ideals is like a ship without bags in the sea, drifting with the tide. A person with an ideal, but unclear goals, will lead to failure, and even bring disaster to the country and people; A person with ideals but clear goals will make great contributions to the country, the nation and mankind. I didn't understand these things until I read the book How Steel was Tempered. This winter vacation, I spent more than ten days reading this book. I was deeply moved by the noble character and steely will of the protagonist Paul Cochakin, especially because he has a great ideal. That is: "a person's life should be spent like this: looking back, he will not regret wasting his time, nor will he be ashamed of his mediocrity in the past." When he died, he could say that all my life and energy were dedicated to the most magnificent cause in the world and fought for the liberation of all mankind. " Under the control of this ideal, Paul worked hard and forgot his work. His strength has always been harder than steel. In white terror, he gave it to. Send a message and save the revolutionaries from death. For this, he was punished and imprisoned. During the revolutionary war years, he rode a war horse and waved a combat knife, fighting fiercely with the white bandits. In the harsh environment, he struggled with cold, snow and ice, starved and worked hard to build the railway. During the period of peace building, he forgot his work in the factory. What is particularly touching is that he insisted on writing after he became blind. Finally, I finished the masterpiece How Steel was Tempered. This book has been published more than 50 times in more than 30 different languages, and has distributed more than 30 million copies all over the world, affecting generations. It is still deeply rooted in people's hearts. We students also have ideals, and some want to be scientists, teachers, painters and doctors. I think this is a career choice. Ask me what my ideal is, like Paul.

Reflections on Red and Black

Red and Black is the foundation work of European critical realism in19th century. Focusing on the hero's personal struggle experience and ultimate failure, especially the description of his two love affairs, the novel widely shows "the oppressive social atmosphere brought by successive governments to the French people in the first 30 years of the 9th century", and strongly criticizes the darkness of the reactionary aristocrats and churches during the restoration period and the meanness and vulgarity of the bourgeois nouveau riche.

Stendhal is a literary master who is good at reflecting major social problems from love. Even the two loves are closely related to the times, which is a manifestation of class competition at that time. He did have real feelings for Mrs. De renard later, but at first it was out of ordinary people's revenge on powerful people. Therefore, when Lian took Madame de renard's hand for the first time, what he felt was not the happiness of love, but the victory of Napoleon's ambition, which was a "carnival"

If Julien still has some sincere feelings in the process of pursuing Madame de renard, then Julien's love for Miss Mathilde is purely a political competition. Mathilde has both the arrogance and willfulness of aristocratic girls and the profound influence of the French Revolution. She believes that if there is another revolution, it must be a youthful civilian youth like Julian who will dominate the society. Being with Julian is both romantic and romantic.

However, Julian's two love affairs ended in failure. This is because during the restoration period, feudal forces made a crazy counterattack against the civil class. Even if he is not in the circle of the ruling class, that class will never tolerate people like Lian to realize their great ambitions.

"Red and Black" has made outstanding achievements in the modeling of typical characters, symmetrical artistic structure and the use of line drawing techniques in typical environments, while Stendhal is called "the father of modern novels" by critics because of his outstanding talent in psychological description in "Red and Black". Realist writers emphasize the truth of details, but unlike Balzac, Stendhal pays attention to the meticulous and realistic inner activities of characters, rather than the objective environment. The author often explains the characters' actions and surrounding environment in a few words, but his inner activities are eloquent, and his psychological description of love is incisive and touching. It took the author only three pages to learn that Madame de renard wrote a letter to expose her, but the love with Mathilde took hundreds of pages to describe in detail. The joy, pain and excitement of Madame de renard when she fell in love.

Reading red and black is a long process, because time gives writers and works the most selfless and fair evaluation. My reading attitude can't be as reckless as a bestseller, nor can I be as noncommittal as a romantic novel. I am talking to that era with my heart, focusing on exploration and thinking outside history.

Thoughts on Xiangzi Camel

Camel Xiangzi truly depicts the tragic fate of a rickshaw puller in Beijing. Xiangzi came from the countryside. After pulling a rented rickshaw, he decided to buy a rickshaw to pull it himself and become an independent laborer. Hardworking and hard-working, he did not hesitate to use all his strength to achieve this goal. Encouraged and supported by strong confidence, after three years of hard work, he exchanged his blood and sweat for a rickshaw. But before long, the mutinous soldiers of the warlord took his car away. Then the detective of the reactionary government cheated him of his only savings, and the owner escaped the spy's tracking, which made him lose a relatively stable job; Tigress's inevitable "love" for him brought him physical and mental suffering. Faced with repeated blows, he struggled and still stubbornly tried to make greater efforts to realize his life dream. But everything was in vain: he used Tigress's savings to buy a car, and he will sell it soon to take care of Tigress's funeral. His wish is "to be caught forever like a ghost." After many twists and turns, it was finally completely shattered. His favorite happy suicide blew out the last spark of hope in his heart, and he lost any desire and confidence in life. He went from ambition to self-indulgence: Xiangzi, who was originally honest and kind, was crushed by the millstone of life. This tragedy effectively exposed the crime of turning people into ghosts in the old society.

Jane Eyre's thoughts after reading

Is it because I am poor, obscure, plain and short that I have no soul and no heart-you are wrong, my heart is as rich and full as yours!

-Jane Eyre Charlotte

Jane Eyre is a classic handed down from generation to generation in the history of English literature. It has successfully created the first female image in the history of English literature who has an independent and positive attitude towards love, life, society and religion and dares to fight for freedom and equality.

Most women who love foreign literature like reading Charlotte's Jane Eyre. If we think that Charlotte wrote Jane Eyre only to write this lingering love, I think it is wrong. The author is also a woman, living in the turbulent middle of the19th century in England, when her thoughts had a brand-new beginning. It is this idea that permeates Jane Eyre the most. Without that independence, she would have lived with Rochester, who has a wife and a daughter, and started a new life with money and status. If she doesn't have that purity, Jane Eyre in our hands now will no longer be a classic that touches people's tears. So, I began to think about why Jane Eyre moved us so much that we couldn't put it down-it was her independent personality and exciting personality charm.

However, we can't help asking, can we be independent only by this step? I don't think so. After all, women's independence is a long-term process and cannot be achieved overnight. It needs a thorough courage, just as Jane Eyre resolutely left Rochester, and it needs the heroism and courage of "the wind and rain hit Shui Han and the strong soil will never return". I think this should be the most crucial and decisive step towards independence. But Jane Eyre in Charlotte's works made her

Jane Eyre has always been regarded as a classic of independent women. I hope more Jane Eyre will come out in the sun, whether poor or rich; No matter beautiful or plain, everyone has a beautiful heart and a full heart, and can live with an independent personality and a strong personality.

Reflections on the Miserable World

After reading Les Miserables, I was thinking ―― Is this really the tragic world in the book?

Jean Valjean was unhappy when he walked out of the dark prison that had besieged him for 19 years. Everyone suspected him and hated him. The pub refused to let him in and the innkeeper kicked him out. After a long journey, he had nowhere to go, but fortunately, he met the kind bishop Miriam. The kind bishop not only gave him food, but also provided him with a comfortable guest room, and even forgave him when he stole a silver plate and escaped. And presented a pair of expensive silver candlesticks-"You are no longer a bad person, please use these silver plates to be a serious person." I finally believe that people can change people, just as the Bishop deeply influenced Jean Valjean with his generosity and kindness, giving him infinite hope and making him repent thoroughly and start a new life. He was helpful, brave and deeply loved by the people, and suddenly became a respected mayor.

There is also a poor female worker, Fantine, who, in order to make a living, puts her daughter in foster care at the home of the villain Thenardier. Thenardier asked her for the necessary expenses for her daughter's life for various reasons. This kind and simple mother, wallowing in suffering, did not hesitate to sell the most precious hair and teeth for her daughter, and finally gave her life.

When it comes to good and evil, the Bishop, Fantine and later Jean Valjean are all kind people. Even though there are all kinds of tragedies in this world, they still decorate the world with warmth!

In the face of poverty and indifference, some people will be like Thenardier. They are selfish, greedy and mean. When they are tempted by interests, they will cheat and even persecute others. Such people are not uncommon. They will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. For example, in order to save himself, Wang Jingwei did not hesitate to bend his knees to the Japanese and betrayed the nation. The secretary of Chenzhou Municipal Party Committee gave up the collective interests for his own greed; The United States flagrantly launched the oil war against Iraq ... but fortunately, in reality, there is another kind of person. They have aboveboard, selfless and kind hearts. Just like Hong Zhanhui, he can be called an "emissary of love", seeking medical treatment behind his father and taking his sister to study ... He doesn't ask for anything in return, and even helps others when they are in trouble. He is the inheritor of the virtues of the Chinese nation.

Les Miserables not only depicts the life of the lowest people in capitalist society with exquisite writing, but also depicts love, good and evil. I can't help feeling the end of the story-

"Is Jean Valjean really dead?"

No, he erected a kind monument in people's hearts with his life.

Reflections on Gulliver's Travels

Swift, the author of Gulliver's Travels, was born in Dublin, Ireland, and his father was an Englishman who settled in Ireland. He is a posthumous child and was raised by his uncle. Gulliver's Travels, his masterpiece, was published in 1726. It is regarded as children's literature, but it is actually a satirical novel attacking the corruption of British society at that time.

In this book, the adventures of the hero and the surgeon Gulliver are written, some of which are very scary. In Lilliput, he became a monster, invulnerable, and he still couldn't fill his stomach after swallowing dozens of scalpers. In the giant's kingdom, he became a giant's doll, playing in the palm of his hand and fighting flies and bees; Later, he came to the mysterious flying island country, where people use the power of natural magnets under birds and magnets under the sea floor to move at will. This is also a strange country that can summon ghosts to talk at any time and specialize in some inexplicable research. There is also a country of wisdom, which is deeply shameful. In this upside-down world, there are many incredible stories. Reading and reading, I seem to have entered that fantastic world with Gulliver. I was deeply impressed by the doll-like figures, the tall and mighty giants, the residents of the flying island countries who looked like fish, and Hui Zhi and Hu Ye.

I think the most special thing is the residents of Feidao. Their eyes are on one side, and they are a nation that loves musical instruments. They also have their favorite musical instruments in their clothes. The attendants there must always knock the ministers on the head, otherwise they will always be whimsical ... After reading this book, I admire Gulliver's wisdom, courage and adventurous spirit. He is a different person. As soon as he saw the sea, he couldn't restrain his inner impulse to take risks.

After reading this book, I gradually feel that these books are actually very interesting, so I can't stop reading them. On the contrary, after watching them several times, I like them more and more. Books are the ladder of human progress, and it is everyone's dream to travel in the world of books. Open the book in your hand and plunge into it, and you will find the fun one day.

Reflections on the Education of Love

The title "Education of Love" makes me think about what love is in this pluralistic world. With this in mind, I trudged with an Italian primary school student to find an unknown answer.

Love, like air, is always ignored by us every day because it is invisible. In fact, its meaning has been integrated into life. Just like the love of parents, we just put a new book that children love to read on the shelf. When we cough, the pills are in front of us. We don't forget to see the children before going to bed, which is the deep love we need to embrace with open arms. When we are in trouble, no one supports us, but our parents are still with us. Don't forget to tell you at night: go to bed early. After reading the story of Amway, I realized that all parents in the world love their children deeply. Amway bought a diary that they read and wrote with their parents, and now many students still hang small locks on it. The simplest things are also the most easily overlooked, just like the deep love between parents and children in this broad love, many people can't feel it.

If love is a journey, some people may disagree. But love is an endless and pleasant journey. Just like life, if you treat life as a prison sentence, people will do heavy work in order to get out of prison one day. Then such a life will inevitably make people feel very painful and tired. On the contrary, if you regard life as a trip, it will be very relaxed, and every day will be enriched by understanding and learning new things. So, you just want to go on, and even be enthusiastic, no matter how long it will last. At this point, this feeling has been sublimated into a kind of love, a kind of love for life. I read Education of Love and entered Amway.

If love is a rushing blood and a jumping soul, then I think it is a noble love for the country. It sounds like a slogan, but as a person with conscience, this kind of love should be firmly implanted in our hearts. When reading the touching scene of the Italian people blowing off their legs and soaking their homes for their country, I can't help thinking that our motherland is also soaked with the blood of Chinese sons and daughters. This is also for our country. I can also abandon everything and fight together. I am deeply impressed by this supreme state of love. I don't need to throw my head for my motherland, but our motherland still needs a lot of things. Love is great because it is not only for individuals, but also for the dignity and emotion of the whole nation.

In the education of love, love is compared to many things, which is true and not just these. "What is love?" I don't think there will be a clear answer, but I have finished thinking about love-love is vast, infinite and great.

Old people and their feelings after reading the sea.

"A ship crosses the end of the world and sails for the unknown sea. On the bow, there is a flag, which is still gorgeous despite the wind and rain. On the national flag, Yunlong is dancing and shining-beyond the limit! " The author Hemingway commented on his work The Old Man and the Sea.

The Old Man and the Sea created a classic tough guy image. An old fisherman named Santiago in Cuba went fishing alone. After 48 days of nothing, he caught a huge marlin. This is a big fish that the old man has never seen or heard of. It is two feet longer than his boat. This fish is so powerful that he dragged the boat for two days and nights. These two days and nights have never been experienced by the old man. Tie it to the bow. However, at this time, he met a shark, and the old man fought with the shark to the death. As a result, the marlin was eaten up by sharks, and the old man finally dragged home with only a bare fish skeleton.

Why didn't Hemingway let the old man win in the end? In the words of the old man in the novel, "people are not born to be defeated" and "people can be destroyed, but they cannot be defeated." This is the philosophy that The Old Man and the Sea want to reveal. There is no denying that everyone will have defects. When a person admits this defect and tries to overcome it instead of giving in to it, no matter whether he finally catches a complete marlin or an empty skeleton, the old fisherman is a winner who dares to challenge his own defect and his own courage and confidence. Judging from the secular victory, the old fisherman is not the final winner, because although he defeated the marlin at first, the marlin was eventually eaten by the shark. He just returned to the shore with the skeleton of the marlin, that is to say, the shark is the winner. However, in the eyes of idealists, the old fisherman is the winner, because he has never compromised with marlins and sharks.

Human nature is tenacious, and human beings have their own limits, but it is precisely because people like the old fisherman have repeatedly challenged and surpassed the limits that the limits have been expanded again and again, and greater challenges have been placed in front of human beings again and again. In this sense, a hero like the old fisherman Santiago deserves our eternal respect no matter whether he succeeds or fails in challenging the limits, because he brings us the noblest self-confidence of mankind!

Life is an endless pursuit. Its road is long, difficult and full of bumps, but as long as you bravely meet the challenge with a confident heart, he will always be a real winner!

Read Pride and Prejudice.

This is a romantic and realistic love. Without romance, love will lose its beautiful color. However, this novel is full of considerations about the right family and wealth in marriage.

Elizabeth is very uneasy about the influence of her family behavior, so Darcy suggests that Mr. Bingley leave Jane. Later, after a contest between reason and emotion, she confided her heart to Elizabeth in contradiction. So what is love? That kind of pure love, desperate love, pure love as white as snow, is really like a mirror, or just a beautiful fantasy and pursuit in people's hearts, but in real life people always look for the best balance between the two.

Elizabeth is full of affection for Wickham when she knows his true face, but her period says that such a young man will not be happy because he has no property and no stable income. Elizabeth accepted this view and actively restrained her feelings. Hehe, this is not to discredit Elizabeth, but only to show us a real and rational Elizabeth, a smart and rational girl.

Darcy inherited his ancestral business and lived a carefree life, which was highly respected in the upper class. In that position, all the virtues are not exaggerated. He is generous and helpful. These things are very helpless and enrich his image, but there is no comment on him.

There is an interesting detail description. Elizabeth and her uncle and aunt, Mr./Mrs. Gardiner, met Darcy by chance while visiting Pemberley-Darcy's estate. From then on, Elizabeth was very satisfied with the relationship between Mr. Gardiner and Mr. Darcy. She thinks Darcy should know that not all his relatives are boring people. This kind of psychological description is really interesting. Elizabeth already cares about Darcy's feelings. If not, she is satisfied. Besides, does Elizabeth have a little vanity, which makes her more lovely instead of hurting her loveliness! Who doesn't have any?

In the pursuit of love, we must strengthen our faith, don't make hasty decisions because of money, fame or other reasons, and insist on finding true love. If some shortcomings of the other party are unbearable and unchangeable, we must resolutely choose to give up; Of course, we should cherish each other and don't change our decision because of some words from others. Happiness should be managed by ourselves.

Thoughts on Reading A Dream of Red Mansions

A Dream of Red Mansions is based on Jia, Shi, Wang and Xue, with the fierce struggle between feudalism and rebels around Jia Baoyu's life path as the main line and the tragedies of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu as the main content. Through the vivid description of the decline process of the feudal family represented by Jiafu, it profoundly exposed and criticized the darkness and decay of the feudal society, and further pointed out that the feudal society had reached the point of "luck"

A Dream of Red Mansions vividly describes the whole life of China feudal society in the first half of the 8th century. The book has a large scale, rigorous structure, vivid characters and beautiful language, and has some obvious artistic characteristics, which is worth tasting and appreciating by future generations.

The author of the novel makes full use of all the excellent traditional techniques of China's calligraphy, painting, poetry, songs, music and other literature and arts, and shows a social tragedy, such as Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu reading The West Chamber, Daiyu burying flowers, Baochai catching butterflies, Qingwen making up the autumn, Baoqin Li Xue and Daiyu burning manuscripts. , but also in the characterization, such as Lin Daiyu's floating posture, poetic eyebrows. Handsome literary talent ... These are all cultivated by the author with the rich artistic accomplishment of China's excellent traditional culture, which makes her always have a special charm full of poetry and painting in the group of Twelve Woman, and the fragrance of oriental culture spreads.

Cao Xueqin truly reproduces the complexity of the characters in A Dream of Red Mansions, which makes us feel that the characters in the works are as real as those in life. Jia Baoyu in A Dream of Red Mansions "can't say that he is virtuous, stupid, kind, evil, aboveboard, wicked, intelligent and talented, vulgar and ordinary", which makes people comment. The heroine of an ideal beauty is just like this. Even the notorious Rainbow Xifeng didn't write her as "all bad", but mixed some "loveliness" with "abomination", thus showing various contradictory and complicated actual situations and forming a kind of "charming truth" in her character.

The author is good at revealing its unusual aesthetic significance through the artistic description of seemingly ordinary daily life, and even some unwritten and unrecorded social habits and details are vividly portrayed in A Dream of Red Mansions.

The outstanding achievements of A Dream of Red Mansions in ideological content and artistic skills have not only become the "insurmountable peak of China's novel literature" at home, but also attracted the attention and research of scholars in many countries internationally. Some French critics praised Cao Xueqin's keen vision of Proust, Tolstoy's sympathy, Miao Sai's clever humor, Balzac's insight and his ability to reproduce the top-down stratum of the whole society.

Reflections on "If you give me three days of light"

Mark Twain once said: "There were two strange people in the19th century, one was Napoleon and the other was Helen Keller." I recently read a book about Helen-if I have three days to see, after reading this book, I am deeply shocked by Helen's spirit! Helen said in the book: "Knowledge gives people love, light and wisdom. It should be said that knowledge is happiness, because with knowledge, we will feel the pulse of human activities in history, otherwise we will not understand the music of human life! " Indeed, the power of knowledge is infinite, and it is knowledge that makes Helen create these miracles on earth! Helen is unlucky, but she is lucky. It is because of her knowledge that she is so lucky. After she lost sight and hearing 19 months, she lost communication and contact with the world. This young life doesn't know how to dispel the isolation. She was eccentric and rude until her Sullivan teacher came into her life and taught her to read. Be able to communicate with people. As soon as lonely Helen came into contact with knowledge, she realized that only knowledge could pave a bright road. When Helen realized the first word she knew, she began to have a strong desire for knowledge and the world, and began to read and read hungrily, just like a sponge constantly drawing knowledge from life itself. She studied German, Latin, French and other languages in an unimaginable monotonous life, read many literary and philosophical masterpieces, and absorbed the ideological essence of those great men and wise men. She compared learning to climbing a strange mountain, a dangerous peak, and then climbing after falling down. Every time she made a little progress, she was encouraged and gradually saw a wider world, until the bright clouds, the depths of the blue sky and the peak of hope! This knowledge, like a rainbow, lights up the lamp in Helen's heart, illuminates her inner world and builds a bridge between Helen and the world! In the book, Helen describes the natural scenery with delicate brushwork, which makes it hard to believe that it was written by a blind and deaf person; She went horseback riding, boating, swimming, sledding and even boating alone on a moonlit night to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lotus pond under the moon. She visited museums, "listened" to concerts and even "enjoyed" operas ... I believe she must feel the world with her heart and enjoy life with her heart. She lives a happier, fuller and more meaningful life than us normal people! It was knowledge that gave her the courage to live, and it was knowledge that gave her the strength to accept the challenges of life, so that she faced difficulties with amazing perseverance and finally found the light of life in the dark. It was knowledge that gave her a new belief: the real environment is terrible, but human beings should hold hope and continue to struggle. What is the meaning and value of life? Man's life is short. We never seem to think or dare to imagine the future world. We live and work lazily every day. When we are in trouble, we complain about the injustice of heaven. So year after year, day after day, time flies like water, and the past days will not reappear. When we look back, is it worth nostalgia? Is it memorable? If each of us lights the lamp in our hearts with knowledge, I believe the world will be bright! Helen explained the meaning of life with her hard and happy life. Her life is a miracle of mankind, and her autobiography makes me ashamed and alert. Why do only deaf people in this world cherish the restored hearing? Only the blind will cherish the happiness of seeing the light of day? Let's cherish every day of our lives, enrich our lives and enjoy them! Helen said, "The purpose of my efforts to acquire knowledge is to contribute to society." How powerful knowledge is, it can turn a disabled person into a person who is beneficial to human beings and society. If each of us, like Helen Keller, regards the thirst for knowledge as the pursuit of life in our lifetime, and with this pursuit, we can live every day with friendliness, vitality and eagerness. Helen's life is a life of living in darkness, but it brings light to mankind. She proved the courage of human beings to overcome life with actions, leaving the world an unforgettable song of life!
