One day, he is asked to accompany and play with an immensely rich and grim lady Miss Havisham, who lives in a large and dismal house, where Pip falls in love with the lady’s adopted daughter, Estella, the moment he meets her. But the girl is very proud and cold to him, because he is a common laboring-boy. Pip determines to become a gentleman. At this very time, an anonymous benefactor helps Pip to receive higher education in London to cultivate him to be a gentleman. But finally his unknown benefactor proves to be an escaped prisoner, Abel Magwitch, who is later caught and hanged by the police. When Pip learns to be a gentleman in London, he looks down upon his relatives and friends like Joe. But Joe pays off Pip’s debts and looks after him when Pip breaks up and falls ill. Pip asks Joe for forgiveness, and Joe forgives him. As Pip has lost his fortune upon Magwitch's death, he is no longer a gentleman. Pip promises to repay Joe and goes to Egypt, where he shares lodgings with Herbert and Clara and works diligently as a clerk. Eleven years later, Pip comes back and meets Estella again, and they are still friends apart.10 sentences that impress me most1. the space interposed between myself and them…geographical and social, solar and lunar”(243)2.

The main clue of the novel is the growth of Pip. Given that this novel is one of the most mature works of Dickens’s later period, it contains D ickens’ deeper observation towards socie ty, which means after Dickens has experienced an enriched human life, he has a deeper understanding of what he has seen or experienced. Thus, the novel can stand for Dickens’s mature opinion with deeper thinking. One of the most consistently praised aspects of the novel, or one of the things that makes it such an extraordinary achievement, is Dickens's masterful depiction of Pip's character. The entire story is presented through this main character's eyes, which allows the reader a great deal of insight into Pip's psychology.。

但《远大前程》告诉我们，金钱虽然满足了他的虚荣，满足了他的物欲，却无法获得艾丝黛拉对他的真爱；他即使成为了所谓的“绅士”而参加各种欢愉的活动，心中却因缺少了亲人对他的关爱而麻木不仁。

所以金钱买不来真情，也买不来快乐。

英文原著阅读报告greatexpectations远大前程第一篇：英文原著阅读报告 great expectations 远大前程Great ExpectationsIntroductionThe novel I read this time is “Great Expectations” written by Charles Dickens(1812-1870).He is the greatest representative of English critical realism.Dickens was bornin a poor family.At the age of 12, his father was put in prison and young Dickens was sentto work in a factory.From 1827 to 1829, Dickens worked as a clerk in a low firm and lateras a newspaper reporter.Dickens was horned by the Queen of England three months beforehis death on June 9, 1810.The words of his grave read as follows “by his death, one ofEngland’s greatest writers is lost to the world.”He has many maste rpieces, such as “A tale ofcities” “David Copperfield” “Hard time” “Oliver Twist” and so on.“Great Expectations”is one of his masterpieces.The story in this book happened in middle of 19 century and itreflects the gap between the rich and the poor in the capitalistic society.The summary of the bookThis story tells us about a young man who wished for the unreal/imaginary lives, andeventually his hope was extinguished by the real life.Pip was an unfortunate boy.Hisparents both died when he was a baby.He was brought upby his elder sister and herhusband Joe Gargery.Joe was kind to Pip and he also wanted Pip to be a good blacksmith.But the emergence of Estella has changed his life.He fell in love with Estella and he wanted to be a gentleman for her.Then a mysterious person came to help him to realize his greatexpectations.At first Pip thought that it was Miss Havisham, a strange woman made plansfor him.But at last, it proved that an escaped convict who he had helped when he was alittle boy was his benefactor.When the escaped convict was arrested again, his expectationswere at an end.Finally he realized that he only wanted to be a gentleman but he had ignoredhis old friends.He came to the real life again eventually.After suffering so many pains heand Estella came together at last.My view on this story“Great Expectations”, I think there is an irony included in this title.It relates to some unrealistic dreams.From this novel, I have learnt a lot.Firstly, I pick up several lessons from Pip.One can have great dreams, but we should achieve our dreams by our own effort instead of depending on other people.In this story, Pip had an unrealistic dream.He didn’t want to be a poor blacksmith like Joe.He wanted to be upper class people, to be a gentleman and he imagined that there was someone had made a plan for him.It is true that Abel Magwitch helped him secretly.But when Abel Magwitch was arrested, it put an end to Pip’s great expectations.He had nothing left.And in this book, Herbert and Pip form a poignant contrast.Herbert made great efforts to realize his dreams.In the end, his business was doingwell, and his company had offices overseas.Therefore, we should realize that if we want to achieve something or fulfill one of our ambitions, we must make efforts by ourselves.There is no one in the world that makes plans for us.And there is no short cut for success.Secondly, I have learned from Pip’s experience that we should be grateful to others.We know that Pip was brought up by his sister and Joe.And Biddy was also friendly to him when he was at home.But when he was helped by a mysterious person, he moved to London to learn being a gentleman.He began to be proud and look down upon those people at home.He wanted to forget his poor life and his poor friends.But when h is “great expectations” were ruined, it was still those people who helped him out of trouble.However, when he began to realize it, his sister has died;it was too late to say thanks to her.What I want to say is that no matter how successful we are, we should not be proud;we should not forget the people who had helped us, and return for them.If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is this: give it now.Don’t hesitate until it is too late to give our thanks.Thirdly, I also learn some lessons from Miss Havisham, She is a woman full of hatred, and she lived in hatred for so many years.She brought Estella up in order to revenge on man.I think what she did is not worth at all.On one hand, she was not in real happiness, although she revenged on other people.On the other hand, she had ruined Estella’s life.In addition, she also made other men miserable.As for as I’m concerned, if I was Miss Havisham, I will choose another different kind of life.I will make myself live better than before to prove that I can live better without that man.From her experience, I think we should learn to forgive,learn to give up some bad things that had happened.No matter what had happened in the past, we should not be always lost in the pastand we are supposed to look forward, and continue our new life.There is no doubt that if she had chosen a positive way, she will have a satisfactory life.What’s more, when it comes to Estella, I want to say that we should live our own life, and do not only live up to others’ expectations.We kno w that, Estella was brought up by Miss Havisham to revenge on man.She did everything that Miss Havisham told her.We can say that she was “made” by Miss Havisham, and she was proud, cold.At last, following Miss havisham’s requirements she married to a man s he didn’t love at all.I think she lived an unhappy life.She only did as other people told her.And she didn’t do something what she liked.I think this kind of life is meaningless.We should have our freedom.It occurred to me that nowadays, parents have high expectations on their children.They decide so many things for their children without getting their children’s permission.I think children should have their choice of life.Parents should not put their children into cage.It is wise for them to set their children free to look for their own sky.In a word, from this book, I have learnt how to be myself, how to realize my dreams and how to live my own life.第二篇：远大前程(英文)Great Expectations——远大前程In thistterm , I read a book called 《 Great Expectations》, it was written by Charles Dickens, one of the most famous English writers.He wrote lots of wonderful novels.This book is one of his compositions.People always like to compare with their friends.It is a big foible of all the people.If other people have a lot of money, we also want to be rich.If all the people around us

he live with the poor man.Pip’s ‘great expectations’ destroyed his life.This novel told us that we cannot compare with others.Don’t feel envy at the others money.And if one day you be very rich , please don’t despise your poor fr iends.第三篇：远大前程英文读后感远大前程英文读后感一：Great Expectations“Great expectations” is one of Dicken’s most maturest works.After Dicken had experienced large part of meaningful life, he had a deeper cognition for people, environment, as well as the life which he had gone through.And all the mature cognitions are included in this writing---Great expectations.pip was brought up by his sister who was unpleasant as well as crude and her friendly blacksmith husband—Joe.Joe himself had arranged a common hard but satisfied path for pip to go through, and on the other hand, pip beheld this as his highest goal to achieve.But the two things which he had experienced later had changed hispursue and his fate as well.Met Abel Magwith（an escaped convict）in the swamp, and unwillingly helped him out of danger by stealing food from his own home.If say that had changed his attitude for material life, then, his introduction to Miss Havisham, an aging woman who had been jilted at the alter and Estella who had been brought up by Havisham only to revenge for her own pain had brought vast shock for his world of spirit.Aspiring to be a gentleman despite his humble born, pip fortunately or unfortunately received a fund of wealth from an unknown source and being sent to London with a lawyer.From then on, he became a gentleman without question at the price of losing everything.The title of this book is ‘Great expectations” which make an impression on us that the character would have great expectations just as the title goes.But in fact this title has a tone of sarcastic on the other way around.This story full of quirkiness from the very beginning to the end, the relations among characters are anfractuous as well which actually attracted me a lot.One of the paragraphs, which I appreciate most implicatively as well as beautifully expresses the feeling between pip and Estella.“We are friends,” said I, rising and bending over her, as she rose from the bench.‘And will continue friends apart.” Said Estella.I took his hand in mine, and we went out of the ruined place;and, as the morning mists had risen long ago when I first let the forge, so, the evening mists were rising now, and in all the broad expanse of tranquil light they showed to me, I saw no shadow of another parting from her.At the view of language, this works had achieved a step o f highest, Dicken had made this writing plain and fluent as well, which surely can attract lots of readers and high comments.To be frank, I really impressed by this art of beauty.So I like Dicken’s works very much.远大前程英文读后感二：To be simpleAfter reading the whole book of “Great Expectations” written by Charles Dickens, I can’t find suitable words to express my thoughts completely.First of all, I am attracted by the excellent literary talent of Charles Dickens.The descriptions of the details are just right for the foundation of the background.The design of the story also brings me shock.To me, it is not only a good story, but also a lesson of the life that I am experiencing.But, what I have learnt from the book is not the main idea that Charles Dickens wanted to show.What impresses me deeply is only a supporting role —pared with the life of pip, what Joe has experienced is so ordinary.He is an ordinary blacksmith, an ordinary husband, an ordinary brother, an ordinary friend, even an ordinary person!However, just such an ordinary person brings me a great special feeling.In his world, life is so simple.He is far away from the complex world which is polluted by the ugly soul of people.May be, “kind-hearted” is the biggest adv antage of him, which is also the biggest shortage of him in his daily life.Different from all the other figures in the book, Joe’s life is so simple and his thoughts also stay pure after he experiences whatever sufferings that life gives him.In my opinion, his childhood is miserable.What he has experienced must be unhappy and sorrowful.He grows up in such a family, meets so much violence（May be, in that period, it is common）。

great expectation的内容介绍《Great Expectations》是英国著名小说家查尔斯·狄更斯的代表作之一，被誉为英国文学史上最重要的小说之一。

小说以主人公皮普为中心，讲述了自然生长的力量和人性的复杂性，深入挖掘了人类内在的贪欲、虚荣、自尊心、恐惧、爱与恨等各种情感。

小说主人公皮普被描绘为一个孤独、痛苦的孤儿，他相信自己注定不会幸福。

然而在一个偶然的机会下，他得到了一个“慈善家”的资助，重新获得了自尊心和自信。

随着小说的发展，他爱上了被资助人家庭女儿艾丽莎，但是爱情之路却充满了磨难和阻碍。

除了爱情经历，小说还涉及了艾丽莎父亲的仇恨，皮普养父的秘密，以及其他多样化的题材和情节。

在小说主题上有许多争议。

许多学者认为《Great Expectations》是关于人性内在的冲突和成长的独立之旅；同时也是一部关于阶级和社会晋升的描写，涉及了英国社会中不同阶层的隔阂和人们对财富的渴望。

无论从哪个方面来看，小说都展现了狄更斯对于人性的独到洞见和深刻观察。

此外，《Great Expectations》的叙述方式引人入胜。

小说以第一人称陈述的方式，视角主要集中于皮普身上。

小说语言优美，表现技巧高超，结合了讽刺、幽默和悲剧的元素，从而使人物形象生动而又真实。

同时，小说的结构也是令人印象深刻的。

细节和驱动剧情的事件紧密相连，每一章节都让人想去追寻下一段故事，产生了强烈的阅读欲望。

总之，《Great Expectations》是一部不容错过的经典小说。

它描绘了人性的深处，揭示了社会的弊病，还勾画了一个富有想象力的世界。

这部小说流露出了狄更斯对于人性的深刻洞察和对于文学的独到理解，是一部流传至今的经典之作。

《远大前程》读后感《远大前程》是英国著名批判现实主义小说家狄更斯晚年最具代表性的作品之一。

狄更斯出生于英国，早年的生活穷困潦倒，凭借自己的刻苦努力成为著名的作家。

狄更斯的作品擅长揭露资产阶级的黑暗并且语言幽默、刻画人物细致入微。

读狄更斯的《远大前程》我深深体会到作者对资产阶级社会的下人们以金钱为万物的丑恶行径的批判，以及社会贫富差距极大影响下人们的种种扭曲行为。

但是我又感受到作者对社会丑恶的一面进行批判的同时又对人性中善良的一面进行了赞扬。

这本书给我印象最深的是狄更斯幽默的语言，细致的画面描写，还有书中错综复杂的爱与恨。

《远大前程》主要叙述了一个出身贫寒的小男孩皮普机缘巧合得到了一个有钱人的资助，由此他到伦敦过上了奢华的上流社会生活。

在他没有得知他真正资助人的身份时，一直以为郝维仙小姐是他的资助人。

皮普认为郝维仙小姐对他很好，为了成全埃斯苔娜（郝维仙小姐的养女）与自己的爱情便无私的资助他，让他成为与郝维仙一样的上流社会的人。

由于资助合同中规定他不能在自己未成年时期询问自己的监护人贾格斯关于自己资助人的任何消息，所以他心安理得的度过了几年奢华的生活。

在这几年中皮普由一个善良、淳朴的孩子变的虚荣、忘恩负义。

但没变的是他一直深爱着埃斯苔娜。

但当他得知自己的资助人是当年自己由于恐惧帮助的一个名为马格韦契的罪犯时，内心变得痛苦不堪，他不想让“上流社会的人”得知自己有钱的真正理由，同时又认为与埃斯苔娜结婚这件事永远不可能实现了随着马格韦契被抓，皮普的“远大前程”也就随之东流。

但这也时皮普生命中的另一个转折点，皮普从此变得不在虚荣，通过自己的努力过上了幸福的生活，最终也和自己深爱的埃斯苔娜结婚了。

虽是读书，可是我总觉得书中的一幕幕就好像亲眼看到似的，因为狄更斯的描写太细致了，而且具有很强的画面感。

我拿下面这两段做例子，感受狄更斯的写作手法。

“她穿的衣服都是上等料子制的，缎子、花边、还有丝绸，全是白色的。

她穿的鞋也是白色的。

远大前程《远大前程》英文读后感作文篇一：《远大前程》英文读后感作文I think there are three themes revealed in the novel Great Expectations.1.women are fragile. That is not because those women are in lack of will, but that they need surviving abilities and that of self-survival and struggle against destiny. They always turn to men. That can be called “hero saving the beauty”. This notion originated in the Greek tales but is still adopted successively. The only difference between them lies in the plot and structure. Estella is adopted and trained to break men?s hearts by Miss Havisham. Havisham revenges men and marries Estella to an unworthy guy though Pip deeply loves Estella. Nothing can be bitterer than see his lover married to another guy for a man. Pip really fell into the despair of losing Estella. However, Estella suffers a lot and begins to regret for her initial choice for her spouse and begins to treasure2.Facing destiny, women are physically and intellectually inferior to men. Actually it does not mean they have an inferior intelligence, but that it seems so. Or we can say that both menand women have the same potential of intelligence, but women never show a lot. God creates everyone equally, but not everyone is granted the same approaches to success or achievements. Women are restricted to families, which restrictsthem from showing a lot. They can cook food well, which is one standard for their excellence but not the one for male. The novel goes this way since it implies the male consciousness. The ordinary intelligence of women in marriage and love is exposed pletely. Havisham is abandoned on her wedding day, but she keeps the room like the day she got married, while on the other hand she tries every means to revenge men. Bearing these two conflictive thoughts in mind, Havisham certainly fails to live her own life out of the control or influence from male.3.The discipline for women ]. A feminist De Bufuwa says: “One is called woman because she is ?made? not ?born.” Culturally woman is the product of society and the result of its strict restrictions. Those women who do not obey the disciplines are not regarded as gracious or good women by social criteria, which emphasizes on families, the responsibilities for their husbands and their dependence on men.

The historic background of this book is Victorian Period which was the time when British was governed by Queen Victoria. The hero of the book is Pip, who was living in a blacksmith family. Someday, he met Magwitch, who was a convict, and he helped him. To show his gratitude, Magwitch gavePip a good fortune and Pip led a totally different life after he got the money. However, Pip lost all of his money and fame because of his enemies’ plot at the last and e ordinary people at the last.Dickens is famous for his novel such as Great Expectations, the Tale of Two Cities, Oliver Twist and so on. He always creates some people in lower class and show their different qualities. In Great Expectations, he tried to show us the conflict between different classes in VictorianPeriod by telling us the story of Pip. After Pip got the money, he left his friends and family to city, and then he learned to raise his social state. However, he was a child born in a blacksmith family and there’s a wide gap between him and the upper class. Finally, he lost all of his greatexpectations and went back to his hometown as ordinary people. Fortunately, he met his lover, Estella, in Satis House and they left there together at the end of the story.In the book, my favorite character is Joe, Pip’s brother in law. He was a blacksmith and belonged to the lower social class. However, he possessed some good qualities that made him noble. For example, though Joe didn’t know any w ord, he thought highly of Pip when Pip tried to write him a letter. What’s more, Pip’s sisteralways considered Pip as the burden of their family but Joe always believed that his brother can e successful. No matter how unkindly he was treated, Joe was always family to others. Undoubtedly, it’s Joe’s noble quality that prevents Pip from ing someone snobbish.In my opinion, the story of Pip is really attractive while the writing style is also special. For example, Dickens used simile and metaphor for many times in his book. When Joe visited Pip, Dickens wrote that Joe had taken his hat as a bird’s nest with egg in. I think it’s hard to show the inner world of characters as well as feeling because those things are really abstract. On the other hand, if we write it directly, that may be boring and childish. And by using simile, Dickens transforms the abstract feeling into visual language, with which we can use our imagination to enjoy the story much more easily. I think that we can also make good use of Dicke ns’s outstanding skills to improve our writing.After reading “Great Expectations”, many people plained that the class difference will always result in tragedy and they think that we should try to destroy those barriers. However, I think the massage that Dickens wants to deliver is that we should always be friendly,warm-hearted and optimistic. With these qualities, we can always lead a happy and fortable life like Joe even though we don’t have much money.篇三：《远大前程》英文读后感作文Class one Student No.10 Name: Anna Wang Great Expectation was written by Charles Dickens (1812-1870), one of the most popular writers of all the time, who created some of the best-known characters in English literature. Great Expectation is similar to David Copperfield in that it is the story of a boy growing up.Pip has lost his parents when he was fifteen years old. He was brought up by his sister and her husband__Joe Gargery, a blacksmith who takes Pip on as an apprentice, teaches him his trade and makes friends with him. One day before Christmas, when Pip went to the churchyard where his parents were buried, he met an escaping convict__ Abel Magwitch. Pip brought cakes for the hungry man, which touched Abel deeply, although he was caught by police. After the Christmas, Pip was invited to play with Estella, a beautiful girl adopted by Miss Havisham. Miss Havisham was the richest man in the village. But she was very strange. She was dressed a bridal veil all the whole life after her fiancé left herat the wedding day, taking her a large amount of property. So she lived in the revenge and hated all the men. She treated Estella as a tool to take revenge on all man. When Pip met Estella, he loved her, so did Estella. But Estella knew she was just a tool to carry out the revenge plan of Miss Havisham, so she pretended to be proud, indifferent and look down upon Pip- a relative of a poor blacksmith, which broke Pip’s heart. As a consequence, Pip was determined to e a real gentleman who is in possession of money, good manners, luxurious life and a great expectation for Estella’s sake. Under the help of a stranger who donated a lot of money to him, Pip left Joe and the village, and went to London to live a luxurious life to learn to how to e a real gentleman. Pip started to waste money, look down upon other poor people, even including Joe, his brother-in-law and best friend! Gradually, Pip lost himself in the whirlpool of money, although he has had a large number of debts. As the same time, Estella has e more and more beautiful, graceful and brilliant. She walked in the crowd of men and married one of them as the Miss Havisham’s wish, which really tore Pip into pieces. And, as the same time, the mysterious benefactor of Pip came out. He is Abel- the escaping convict whom Pip has helped. When he escaped from the prison again,he earned much money and wanted to pay back Pip in that way. But Abel soon was caught by police and died. The properties he gave to Pipalso were confiscated by police. Pip fell from the heaven to hell. He co uldn’t stand it. As a result, he had a serious ill.After receiving a letter describing the bad situation of Pip, Joe came to London to look after Pip in spite of the bad attitude Pip ever towards him. After recovering, Pip realized his wrong. He decided to be a gentleman by his own endeavor. So he came back to the small village and spared no efforts to make business with his friend__Herbert. Several years later, Pip met Estella again at the old house of Miss Havisham. After knowing her husband has died and the real reason why Estella didn’t choose him before, Pip made a proposal to her. At last, the two lovers were in together and Pip found his real great expectation at the end.When I finished reading the novel, I also take consideration to the que stion “what a real great expectation is?” In my opinion, great expectation not means money, luxurious life provided by others, even the benefactors are your parents. It is our own dreams that we want to realize by our own efforts. Great expectation may be the further study, a respectable degree, agood job, a warm family or something else. But we must know that our future and great expectation must be mastered by our own. We should working for them, fighting for them, even dying for them, whatever. Only when we got what we want by our own endeavor, can we say we have had a great expectation.。

great expectation观后感100字摘要：1.电影《Great Expectations》的基本情节介绍2.主人公Pip的成长历程及心路变化3.影片中的主题和寓意4.个人对电影的观后感及启示正文：看过电影《Great Expectations》后，我深感这部作品充满了戏剧性与人生哲理。

故事讲述了主人公Pip从一个贫穷的孤儿，成长为一位有教养、有身份的绅士的过程。

在这个过程中，Pip历经磨难，明白了人生的价值并非仅仅在于金钱与地位，而在于真诚的感情和内心的善良。

电影中，Pip的命运发生了两次重大转折。

第一次是童年时，他遇到了一位神秘的富翁Miss Havisham的遗嘱执行人，获得了接受教育的机会。

第二次是在成年后，Pip得知自己的财富来源并非Miss Havisham，而是那位曾经帮助过他的囚犯Magwitch。

这两次经历使Pip深刻体会到了命运的无常，也让他明白了真爱的可贵。

影片中的主题和寓意非常丰富。

首先，它揭示了当时英国社会的阶级偏见和贫富差距。

Pip在追求财富和地位的过程中，逐渐发现自己内心的空虚，最终回归真实的自我。

其次，电影强调了人性的善良和真诚感情的重要性。

在Pip的成长历程中，他遇到了许多对他产生深远影响的人物，如Miss Havisham、Magwitch、Joe Gargery等。

他们让Pip明白了真正的幸福并非来自于金钱和地位，而是来自于内心的善良和对他人的关爱。

看完这部电影，我深刻感受到了人生的无常和命运的无情。

在我们追求物质生活的同时，不能忽视内心的成长和情感的满足。

财富和地位并非人生的全部，真正的幸福是我们用真诚和爱心去感受的。

同时，电影也提醒我们要珍惜身边的每一个人，他们的陪伴与关爱才是我们人生中最宝贵的财富。
