黑布林英语渔夫和他的灵魂50595The Fisherman and His SoulAbout the BookThe Fisherman and His Soul is a short story from Oscar Wilde's collection The Happy Prince and Other Tales. Wilde writes these stories for his children in 1888.The Fisherman and His Soul is the story of a young fisherman. One day he catches a mermaid in his fishing net and he falls in love with her. The fisherman learns he cannot be with the mermaid because he has a human soul. The fisherman then tries to send away his human soul. The fisherman learns from a witch how to send his soul away. He is then free to be with his mermaid. His soul is alone in the world. He travels the world. Each year he comes back to the fisherman and tells him about his travels.One of the themes of the story is temptation. In the story the mermaid tempts the fisherman with stories of the sea. The fisherman tempts the witch to help him send away his soul. And his soul tries to tempt the fisherman to leave the mermaid.But the main theme of the story is love. Love is more important than anything. The soul cannot tempt the fisherman because the fisherman’s love is too strong. And in the end, we discover that you cannot live without love.The Fisherman and His Soul is an exotic story with Oriental and Eastern influences. There are also mermaids, witches and devils. The language is poetic and is full of allegory.1THE MERMAIDEvery evening the young Fisherman goes out on the sea. He throws his nets into the water. When the wind blows from the land, he doesn't catch many fish. But when the wind blows from the sea, he catches lots of fish and he can sell them at the market. One evening the Fisherman's net is very heavy. He thinks, 'Are all the fish in the sea in my net? Or is there a monster in my net?' He pulls and he pulls his net.There are no fish or monsters in his net. But there is a little Mermaid and she is sleeping.The Mermaid's hair is golden. Her body is white. Her tail is silver and pearl. Her ears are like sea-shells and her lips are like sea-coral.Her beauty makes the Fisherman very happy. He leans out of the boat. He takes the Mermaid in his arms. She wakes up when he touches her. She cries like a seagull and she wants to escape. But the Fisherman holds the Mermaid in his arms.‘Please free me,' the Mermaid cries. "I am the only daughter of the King. My father is old and alone. ‘Make me a promise,' says the Fisherman. "I can free you. B please come when I call you. You can sing to me and to the fish. Then my nets can always be full of fish."‘I promise,' cries the Mermaid.The fisherman opens his arms and fees the frightened Mermaid.She swims down under the water.What is not a promise?口A statement in which you say that something will definitely happen.口You will definitely do something.口You will definitely not do something.口You guess something will happen.Every evening the Fisherman goes out on the sea. He calls the Mermaid. She comes out of the water and sings to him. The dolphins swim round and round the Mermaid. The seagulls fly round and round the Mermaid.The Mermaid sings a beautiful song. She sings of the Sea-folk and of the palace of the King. She sings of the gardens of the sea full of coral and fish. She sings of whales, sea lions and seahorses. She sings of sunken ships and of Mermaids holding out their arms to the sailors, calling them into the sea.The Mermaid sings and sings. All the fish come from the bottom of the sea to listen to her. The Fisherman throws his nets into the sea. His nets and boat are full of fish. Then the Mermaid stops singing. She smiles at the Fisherman and she swims back under the sea.Every evening the Fisherman calls the Mermaid. And every evening she sings for him. But she does not come near him. The Fisherman tries to touch her. But she swims back under the Sea.Every evening the Fisherman listens to the Mermaid. Her Song and her voice are sweet to his ears. And the Fisherman forgets his nets and the fish. His eyes are full of love.One evening the Fisherman calls to the Mermaid.'Li ttle Mermaid, little Mermaid, | love you. Can I be your husband?' he says.But the Mermaid shakes her head.'No,' she says. 'You have a human soul. I cannot love you with your human soul. Send away your human soul and I can love you.'The Fisherman thinks, 'I have a soul. But I cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it. I can send it away. Then I can be happy with my little Mermaid.'The Fisherman is full of joy. He stands in his boat. He opens his arms to the Mermaid. ‘I can send my soul away,' he cries. "You can be my wife' and I can be your husband. We can live together at the bottom of the sea. You can show me your kingdom. We can be together."The little Mermaid is very happy. She laughs and hides her face in her hands.‘How can I send my soul away?' cries the Fisherman.'I do not know,' says the little Mermaid sadly. ‘The Sea-folk have no souls.’Then she swims back down under the sea. She is sad now.2 THE PRIESTEarly the next morning the Fisherman goes to the Priest's house.He knocks three times on the door.The fisherman enters the house and kneels on the floor. The Priest is reading.'Father,' he says to the Priest, ‘I am in love with a Mermaid. I can send my soul away. My soul is not important to me. It has no value to me.| cannot see it. I cannot touch it.I do not need it.’‘Are you mad?’ replies the Priest. ‘Of course you need your soul. God gives us our souls to do good things. Human souls are precious. Very precious. Forget the Mermaid. The Sea-folk arelost. Good and evil are the same for them. They have no place in heaven.'The Fisherman is sad. He has tears in his eyes. He stands and says, 'Father, I want to be one of the Sea-folk. I don't want my soul. I want to be with my love. My Mermaid is beautiful, like the stars and the moon. I love her, I don't need my soul. I don't need a place in heaven. Help me. Help me send away my soul.'"Go away! Go away!' cries the Priest. 'You are lost. Lost with your Mermaid.'The Priest sends the Fisherman away and he shuts his door.Fill in the blank.Human souls are important for humans because human souls are precious/ God gives us our souls to do good things.3 THE MERCHANTSThe Fisherman walks to the marketplace. He is sad.The merchants in the marketplace see him. One of the merchants see the fisherman, "What do you have to sell?’‘M y soul.’ answers the Fisherman. 'Please buy it. I cannot use it. I cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it.’But the merchants laugh.‘We cannot buy your soul,' they say. "Your soul has no value for us. Become a slave and we can sell your body. We can dress you in purple and give you a ring. You can become the great Queen's slave.''How strange,' thinks the Fisherman. 'For the priest my soul has great value, but for the merchants it has no value.' And he walks away. He goes to the sea to think.Why does the Fisherman's soul have no value for the merchants?Because the merchants can not sell it.Because his soul is very cheap.Because the merchants sell other goods.Because his soul doesn’t have a price in the market.4 THE WITCHLater the Fisherman remembers a young Witch. His friend knows her. She is good at spells.The Fisherman runs to her cave.‘I want a small thing,' says the Fisherman. 'The Priest says “no" and the merchants laugh. Now I come to you. You can help me and I can pay your price.''What do you want?' asks the Witch. She comes near to the Fisherman.'I want to send my soul away,' says the Fisherman.The Witch grows pale. She hides her face in her blue cloak. "Fisherman, Fisherman,' she says, 'It is terrible to send your soul away.'The Fisherman laughs, 'My soul is not important for me,' he answers. "I cannot see it.I cannot touch it. I do not need it.'‘What can you give me?" asks the Witch. Her beautiful eyes look at the Fisherman. ‘Five pieces of gold’, he say, "my nets, my house and my boat. Tell me how to send my soul away. Then I can give you everything.'The Witch laughs, ‘With my spells I can have gold and silver. Money is notimport ant to me. ’'If you don’t want gold or silver, what can I give you?’ Cries the Fisherman.The Witch touches the Fisherman's hair. Her hand is thin and white. 'Dance with me, Fisherman,' She says. She is smiling.‘Is that all?’! asks the Fisherman.'That is all,' she answers. She smiles again.‘We can dance at sunset,' he says. 'Then you can tell me how to send my soul away.' The witch shakes her head."When the moon is full,' she says. She goes over to the Fisherman and she speaks close to his ear. 'Tonight at the top of the mountain,' she whispers.The Fisherman looks at the Witch.'Wait for me at the top of the mountain, under the tree. When the moon is full, we can dance together.'"Yes,' cries the Fisherman.' Tonight we can dance. It is a small price for me.'He runs back to the town. He is happy.The Witch watches him leave. She goes into the cave. She looks in a mirror. She is angry."Why does he not love me? I am beautiful, too. Why does he love the Mermaid and not me?'Why is the Witch very angry?Because she cannot dance with the Fisherman.Because the Fisherman loves the Mermaid, not her.Because the Fisherman thinks she is ugly.Because the Witch can do nothing for the Fisherman.In the evening the moon rises in the sky. The Fisherman climbs to the top of the mountain. He waits under the tree. He sees the sea below. There are fishing boats on the sea.At midnight the witches come. They fly in the air like bats. They land on the top of the mountain. Then the young Witch arrives. Her red hair blows in the wind. She is wearing a gold dress and a green hat.The Witch walks to the tree. She pulls the Fisherman into the light of the moon. They begin to dance. They dance and dance. Round and round."Faster,' cries the Witch. 'Faster, faster!'Now everything is going round and round. The Fisherman feels frightened. He feels evil in the air. The Witch and the Fisherman are dancing round and round. He hears the Witch laugh.Then a dog barks and the dancers stop."Come!" whispers the Witch to the Fisherman. He follows her. But first he says the holy name.At that moment the witches scream and fly away. The Witch with the red hair also tries to go away. But the Fisherman Catches her and holds her in his arms.Why do the witches scream and fly away?What is happening?Because in calling the holy name the Fisherman is sending their ‘evil’ spirits and powers away.'Free me,' says the Witch.'No,' he answers. 'Tell me the secret.''What secret?' says the Witch. She fights like a wild cat. She wants to be free.'You know,' he replies.He holds her in his arms. She cannot escape.'Am I not beautiful like the daughter of the sea?' she whispers close to the Fisherman's face."Keep your promise. Don't be a false witch,' the Fisherman says.The Witch grows pale.'As you wish,' she says. ‘It is your soul, not mine.'The Witch gives him a little knife.‘What is this for?' the Fisherman asks.The Witch is silent for a few moments. She is afraid. Then she says, 'Man has a shadow'. This shadow is not the shadow of your body. It is the body of your soul. Stand on the seashore with the moon behind you. Then cut away your shadow from your body. Cut away your soul's body. Send your soul away. Then your soul can leave you.'The Fisherman is afraid, too. 'Is this true?' he says.'It is true,' she cries. 'But you can only do it once.' She holds his knees, and she is crying.The Fisherman pushes the Witch away. He puts the knife into his belt and he climbs down the mountain.5 THE SOULThe Fisherman climbs down the mountain. The Fisherman's soul calls to him, 'Don't send me away. Please, don't send me away.''You are not important to me,' says the Fisherman. 'Go away. Go where you want. My love is calling me.'The Fisherman arrives at the seashore. He stands with his back to the moon. He looks at the sea. White arms are calling him. His shadow lies before him. His shadow is the body of his Soul.The Soul speaks again, 'Send me away with your heart.''How can I love my Mermaid with no heart?' replies the Fisherman.'Be kind,' says the Soul. 'Give me your heart.''My heart is for my Mermaid. Go!''Can I not also love?' the Soul tries again.‘Go! You are not important to me,' cries the Fisherman. He takes the little knife and he cuts his shadow away from his feet.The shadow rises and stands before him. The shadow is the same size as the Fisherman.‘Go!' says the Fisherman. "I don't want to see you again.'‘No,' replies the Soul. ‘I want to meet you again.''How?' asks the Fisherman. "You cannot follow me under the sea.’'Every year I can come back to this place,' says the Soul. ‘I can call you and you can come.''OK,' replies the Fisherman. 'I can come.'The Fisherman jumps into the water. The Tritons blow their horns and the little Mermaid comes to meet him. She kisses him. They go down under the water.The Soul watches on the beach. He is all alone.6 THE FIRST YEARThe first year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore. He calls the Fisherman. The Fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’"Come and listen to my story,' says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.The Soul begins his story:I decide to go to the East. Everything in the East is wise. I travel for six days. On the seventh day I come to the land of the Tartars. There are lots of hills and the land is dry and hot. I sit under a tree and watch. People come and go. Then the Tartars go and fight.The moon is high. I see a fire. There are merchants sitting on carpets. There are tents and camels. I go over and the chief merchant stands up and takes out his sword.'Who are you?' he asks me.'I am a Prince. I am running away from the Tartars. I do not want to be their slave,' | answer.The merchant takes my hand and I sit beside him. Then a servant brings me milk and food.Use the Internet to find out about the Tartars.Who are they?Where do they live?In the morning the caravan starts on its journey. | ride on a red-haired camel next to the chief. The men of war walk with their weapons. Eighty mules follow us with all the things we have to sell. There are forty camels in the caravan.We leave the land of the Tartars and we travel to many strange lands.We come to a land where the people curse the moon, We see gryphons guarding their gold on white rocks, dragons sleeping in their caves. We pass mountains with snow. We pass valleys with pygmies shooting arrows. At night we hear wild men beat their drums.We come to the Tower of the apes. We put fruit before the apes. They do not hurt us. We come to the Tower of the serpents. We give them warm milk in bowls. They allow us to pass.Three times on our journey we cross the river Oxus. We Cross on rafts of wood. The river-horses try to fight us. But they see camels and they are afraid.We pay money to the guards of the cities. But they do not open the doors of their cities. They throw bread and cakes over the walls.We arrive at villages and the people run away in fear.On our journey we fight many battles. Many people on the caravan die in battle. And many people on the caravan die of hunger. The survivors start to talk about me. Do I bring bad fortune? I pick up a snake. It bites me but I don't feel anything. Now the people are afraid of me.After four months we arrive at the city of lllel and we knock at the big metal gates. The guards open the gates and we go to the marketplace. The merchants and the servants start to sell theirgoods. The people come and look. On the first day the priests come and buy. On the second day the nobles come and buy. On the third day the craftsmen and slaves come and buy.One day I am walking in the streets of the city. I come to the temple of the city's god. There are priests in yellow clothes. The temple is rose-red with bells on the roof. I sit in front of the temple by a pool of cool water. A priest comes to me.'What do you want?' he asks.'I want to see the god,' I reply."The god is sleeping,' says the priest,'Tell me where, and I can watch him sleep,' I answer.'The god is at a feast,’ he cries.'Give me wine and I can drink with him,' I answer.The priest looks at me, then he takes me by the hand and we go into the temple.In the first room I see a statue. It is made of ebony and it is the size of a man. There is a ruby on its forehead.'Is this the god?' I say to the priest."This is the god,' he answers.'This is not the god! Show me the god,' I shout. And I touch his hand and it becomes small.'Cure me and I can show you the god,' he says.So I breathe on his hand and it becomes normal again. The priest is afraid.In the second room I see another statue. It is made of ivory.It is twice' the size of a man and it is sitting on a jade flower.'Is this the god?' I say to the priest.'This is the god,' he answers.'This is not the god! Show me the god!' I shout. And I touch his eyes and he becomes blind.'Cure me and I can show you the god,' says the priest.So I breathe on his eyes and he can see again. Now the pries is afraid.In the third room there are no statues. But there is a round mirror. The mirror is made of metal and it is on a stone step."Where is the god?" I ask the priest.‘There is no god,’ he answers. ‘This is the Mirror of Wisdom. When you look into it, you can seeeverything in heaven and on earth. But you cannot see your own face. When you look into this mirror, you can see everything and you become wise. Nothing is hidden from you. There are lots of other mirrors in the world but there is only one Mirror of Wisdom. The Mirrors of Wisdom is the god, and we worship it.'I look into the mirror, and I see everything on heaven and on earth. The priest is telling the truth.Then I do a strange thing. I take the mirror and I hide the Mirror of Wisdom. The mirror is in a valley a day's journey from here.This is the end of the Soul's story.Then the Soul turns to the Fisherman and says, "Can I become your soul again? I can become your servant. You can have the Mirror of Wisdom and become wise. You can have Wisdom.'But the Fisherman laughs, "I don't want Wisdom. I want Love,’ he cries. 'The little Mermaid loves me.''No,' says the Soul. "Wisdom is important, too.'I want Love,' answers the Fisherman. He jumps back into the sea.The Soul goes away. He is crying.Do you think the Fisherman chooses well?Which one do you choose? Wisdom or Love?7 THE SECOND YEARThe second year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore.He Calls the Fisherman. The Fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’‘Come and listen to my story,' says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.The Soul begins his story:This time I decide to go to the South. Everything in the South is precious. I travel for six days. On the seventh day I come to the city of Ashter.There are nine gates to this city and there are watch-towers on the walls. In every tower there is an archer with a bow in his hand. At sunrise he hits a gong with his arrow. And at sunset he blows a horn. I try to enter but the guards stop me.'What do you want?' a guard asks me.I am a Dervish,' l answer. 'I am travelling to the city of Mecca.'The guards open the gates and I enter the city.Inside the city there is a bazaar. There are coloured Paper lanterns. The merchants sit on silk carpets. They have straight black beards and golden turbans. They sell perfumes from the islands in the Indian Sea. They sell oils and spices. They sell silver bracelets, earrings and rings, all decorated with precious stones. They sell fine wine from Shiraz. The wine is sweet, like honey. I can hear guitars playing in the tea-houses and the air smells sweet.In the marketplace there are the fruit-sellers. They sell all kinds of fruit: purple figs', yellow melons, red apples, white grapes, red-gold oranges and yellow-green lemons. I see an elephanteating oranges at a stall. Everyone is looking at it and laughing.In Ashter the people are strange. When they are happy, they go to the bird-seller and they buy a bird in a cage. They free the bird from the cage. And their happiness becomes greater. But when they are sad, they take thorns. They hurt themselves with the thorns because they do not want their sadness to go away.One evening I meet some men. They are crying a chair through the bazaar. It is made of bamboo. The windows have beautiful curtains. A beautiful white face looks out at me and smiles. She is Circassian. The men are moving quickly but I follow behind. I want to see the beautiful white face again.They stop at a square white house. The house has no windows. There is a little door, like the door of a tomb. They knock three times and an Armenian looks out. He puts a carpet on the ground.The woman steps out. She turns and smiles at me again.When the moon rises I return to the same place. I look for the house. But it is not there. I do not see the beautiful woman again.On the feast of the New Moon the young Emperor leaves his palace to pray. His hair and beard are colored with rose-leaves. His cheeks are covered with gold dust. The palms of his feet andhands are yellow with saffron.At sunrise he leaves the palace with a silver robe. And at sunset he returns to his palace with a gold robe. The people in the street see him. They lie on the ground and they cover their faces.But I do not. I stand and look at him. The Emperor sees me and stops. He waits for me to obey. But I do not obey. The people tell me to leave the city. But I do not.In the evening I am in the tea-house in the Street of Pomegranates. I am lying on soft cushions on the floor. The Emperor’s guards enter. They take me and they lead me to the palace. They close the doors. They put a chain on the door. There is a great court inside. The walls are white with some green and blue drawings. The pillars are of green marble and the floor is pink.I cross the court. Two veiled women shout at me from a balcony. But the guards move me forward. They open a gate we go into a garden. A nightingale sings from a tree.At the end of the garden there is a little pavilion. Two fat men come to meet us. As they walk, they are eating sweets and fruit from the trees. They and the guards leave me in front of the pavilion and I go in.The young Emperor is lying on lion skins. There is a slave standing behind him. On a table there is big scimitar sword.The Emperor sees me and says, ‘Who are you? Do you know I am the Emperor of this city?'But I do not answer.The Emperor points to the scimitar sword. The slave takes it and attacks me. The sword goes through my body. But it does not hurt me. The slave falls to the floor. He is very afraid. The Emperor jumps to his feet. He tries to attack me but he cannot hurt me, either.The Emperor then kills the slave. Now the slave cannot tell anyone about me.The Emperor looks at me and cries, 'Are you a magician? Why can I not kill you? Leave my city. I cannot be the ruler of the city with you here. Leave the city and I can be the ruler, again.'"Give me half your treasure, ' I answer.' Then I can leave.'The Emperor takes me by the hand. We go out into the garden. We pass the guard and the fat men. They look at me in fear.We enter the palace and go to a large room. The Emperor touches one of the walls and it opens. We walk down a corridor that is lit by many torches. When we arrive at the centre of the corridor,the Emperor says a magic word and a big stone door opens. The Emperor puts his hand over his face to protect his eyes.Inside, the room is full of treasure: pearls, rubies, gold, gold dust, opals, sapphires, jade, emeralds…The Emperor takes his hands away from his face.'This is my house of treasure,’he says. ‘ I can give you half of my treasure. I can also give you camels and camel drivers. Then you must leave. You can leave tonight. Leave before the sun rises.‘l don’t want your treasure,’ I say. ‘I want the Iittle ring on your finger.’‘lt is only a poor ring,' he cries. ‘It has no value. Take half my treasure and leave the city.’What do you think the ring can do?口It is a ring of love.It is a ring of riches.口It is a ring of no value.口It is a ring of wisdom.'No,' I answer. 'I want your ring. I know there is writing inside it. I know it is an important ring. It is the Ring of Riches.'The Emperor is afraid and he says, 'Take all the treasure and leave my city. Take my half of the treasure, too.’Then I do a strange thing. I take the Ring of Riches and hide it. The ring is in a cave a day's journey from here.This is the end cf the Soul's story."Come,' says the Soul to the Fisherman. 'Come with me to the cave. You can have the Ring of Riches. You can have all the riches in the world. You can be rich.'But the Fisherman laughs, 'I want Love, not Riches,' he cries. 'The little Mermaid loves me.'‘No,’ says the Soul. 'Riches are important, too.''No, I want Love,' answers the Fisherman. He jumps back into the sea.The Soul goes away. He is crying.8 THE THIRD YEARThe third year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore. He calls the Fisherman. The fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’'Come and listen to my travels,’ says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.‘I know a city not far from here,’ says the Soul to the Fisherman. ‘There is a beautiful girl there. This girl can dance very well. She dances in her bare feet and with a veil on her face. She is a marvelous dancer. This city is a day’s journey from here.’The fisherman listens to the words of the Soul. He remembers his little Mermaid She has no feet and she cannot dance. The Fisherman wants to see the beautiful dancer.He thinks, ‘It is only a day's journey from here and then I can return to my love.'The Fisherman laughs and stands up in the water. He goes to the shore. He laughs again on the beach. He holds out his arms to his Soul. His Soul cries for joy. He runs to meet the Fisherman and becomes one with him. The Fisherman sees his shadow on the sand. His Soul is part of him, again.'Come, follow me,' says the Soul.The Fisherman and his Soul travel fast. They travel all night and all day. They cometo a city.‘Is this the city?’ the Fisherman asks his Soul. 'Can we see the dancer?’。

Can I be your husband?' he says.But the Mermaid shakes her head.'No,' she says. 'You have a human soul. I cannot love you with your human soul. Send away your human soul and I can love you.'The Fisherman thinks, 'I have a soul. But I cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it. I can send it away. Then I can be happy with my little Mermaid.'The Fisherman is full of joy. He stands in his boat. He opens his arms to the Mermaid.‘I can send my soul away,' he cries. "You can be my wife' and I can be your husband. We can live together at the bottom of the sea. You can show me your kingdom. We can be together."The little Mermaid is very happy. She laughs and hides her face in her hands.‘How can I send my soul away?' cries the Fisherman.'I do not know,' says the little Mermaid sadly. ‘The Sea-folk have no souls.’Then she swims back down under the sea. She is sad now.2 THE PRIESTEarly the next morning the Fisherman goes to the Priest's house.He knocks three times on the door.The fisherman enters the house and kneels on the floor. The Priest is reading.'Father,' he says to the Priest, ‘I am in love with a Mermaid. I can send my soul away.My soul is not important to me. It has no value to me.| cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it.’‘Are you mad?’ replies the Priest. ‘Of course you need your soul. God gives us our souls to do good things. Human souls are precious. Very precious. Forget the Mermaid. The Sea-folk are lost. Good and evil are the same for them. They have no place in heaven.'The Fisherman is sad. He has tears in his eyes. He stands and says, 'Father, I want to be one of the Sea-folk. I don't want my soul. I want to be with my love. My Mermaid is beautiful, like the stars and the moon. I love her, I don't need my soul. I don't need a place in heaven. Help me. Help me send away my soul.'"Go away! Go away!' cries the Priest. 'You are lost. Lost with your Mermaid.'The Priest sends the Fisherman away and he shuts his door.Fill in the blank.Human souls are important for humans because human souls are precious/ God gives us our souls to do good things.3 THE MERCHANTSThe Fisherman walks to the marketplace. He is sad.The merchants in the marketplace see him. One of the merchants see the fisherman, "What do you have to sell?’‘M y soul.’ answers the Fisherman. 'Please buy it. I cannot use it. I cannot see it. I cannot touch it.I do not need it.’But the merchants laugh.‘We cannot buy your soul,' they say. "Your soul has no value for us. Become a slave and we can sell your body. We can dress you in purple and give you a ring. You can become the great Queen's slave.''How strange,' thinks the Fisherman. 'For the priest my soul has great value, but for the merchants it has no value.' And he walks away. He goes to the sea to think.Why does the Fisherman's soul have no value for the merchants?Because the merchants can not sell it.Because his soul is very cheap.Because the merchants sell other goods.Because his soul doesn’t have a price in the market.4 THE WITCHLater the Fisherman remembers a young Witch. His friend knows her. She is good at spells.The Fisherman runs to her cave.‘I want a small thing,' says the Fisherman. 'The Priest says “no" and the merchants laugh. Now I come to you. You can help me and I can pay your price.''What do you want?' asks the Witch. She comes near to the Fisherman.'I want to send my soul away,' says the Fisherman.The Witch grows pale. She hides her face in her blue cloak. "Fisherman, Fisherman,' she says, 'It is terrible to send your soul away.'The Fisherman laughs, 'My soul is not important for me,' he answers. "I cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it.'‘What can you give me?" asks the Witch. Her beautiful eyes look at the Fisherman.‘Five pieces of gold’, he say, "my nets, my house and my boat. Tell me how to send my soul away. Then I can give you everything.'The Witch laughs, ‘With my spells I can have gold and silver. Money is not important to me. ’'If you don’t want gold or silver, what can I give you?’ Cries the Fisherman.The Witch touches the Fisherman's hair. Her hand is thin and white. 'Dance with me, Fisherman,' She says. She is smiling.‘Is that all?’! asks the Fisherman.'That is all,' she answers. She smiles again.‘We can dance at sunset,' he says. 'Then you can tell me how to send my soul away.'The witch shakes her head."When the moon is full,' she says. She goes over to the Fisherman and she speaks close to his ear. 'Tonight at the top of the mountain,' she whispers.The Fisherman looks at the Witch.'Wait for me at the top of the mountain, under the tree. When the moon is full, we can dance together.'"Yes,' cries the Fisherman.' Tonight we can dance. It is a small price for me.'He runs back to the town. He is happy.The Witch watches him leave. She goes into the cave. She looks in a mirror. She is angry."Why does he not love me? I am beautiful, too. Why does he love the Mermaid and not me?'Why is the Witch very angry?Because she cannot dance with the Fisherman.Because the Fisherman loves the Mermaid, not her.Because the Fisherman thinks she is ugly.Because the Witch can do nothing for the Fisherman.In the evening the moon rises in the sky. The Fisherman climbs to the top of the mountain. He waits under the tree. He sees the sea below. There are fishing boats on the sea.At midnight the witches come. They fly in the air like bats. They land on the top of the mountain. Then the young Witch arrives. Her red hair blows in the wind. She is wearing a gold dress and a green hat.The Witch walks to the tree. She pulls the Fisherman into the light of the moon. They begin to dance. They dance and dance. Round and round."Faster,' cries the Witch. 'Faster, faster!'Now everything is going round and round. The Fisherman feels frightened. He feels evil in the air. The Witch and the Fisherman are dancing round and round. He hears the Witch laugh.Then a dog barks and the dancers stop."Come!" whispers the Witch to the Fisherman. He follows her. But first he says the holy name. At that moment the witches scream and fly away. The Witch with the red hair also tries to go away. But the Fisherman Catches her and holds her in his arms.Why do the witches scream and fly away?What is happening?Because in calling the holy name the Fisherman is sending their ‘evil’ spirits and powers away.'Free me,' says the Witch.'No,' he answers. 'Tell me the secret.''What secret?' says the Witch. She fights like a wild cat. She wants to be free.'You know,' he replies.He holds her in his arms. She cannot escape.'Am I not beautiful like the daughter of the sea?' she whispers close to the Fisherman's face."Keep your promise. Don't be a false witch,' the Fisherman says.The Witch grows pale.'As you wish,' she says. ‘It is your soul, not mine.'The Witch gives him a little knife.‘What is this for?' the Fisherman asks.The Witch is silent for a few moments. She is afraid. Then she says, 'Man has a shadow'. This shadow is not the shadow of your body. It is the body of your soul. Stand on the seashore with the moon behind you. Then cut away your shadow from your body. Cut away your soul's body. Send your soul away. Then your soul can leave you.'The Fisherman is afraid, too. 'Is this true?' he says.'It is true,' she cries. 'But you can only do it once.' She holds his knees, and she is crying.The Fisherman pushes the Witch away. He puts the knife into his belt and he climbs down the mountain.5 THE SOULThe Fisherman climbs down the mountain. The Fisherman's soul calls to him, 'Don't send me away. Please, don't send me away.''You are not important to me,' says the Fisherman. 'Go away. Go where you want. My love is calling me.'The Fisherman arrives at the seashore. He stands with his back to the moon. He looks at the sea. White arms are calling him. His shadow lies before him. His shadow is the body of his Soul.The Soul speaks again, 'Send me away with your heart.''How can I love my Mermaid with no heart?' replies the Fisherman.'Be kind,' says the Soul. 'Give me your heart.''My heart is for my Mermaid. Go!''Can I not also love?' the Soul tries again.‘Go! You are not important to me,' cries the Fisherman. He takes the little knife and he cuts his shadow away from his feet.The shadow rises and stands before him. The shadow is the same size as the Fisherman.‘Go!' says the Fisherman. "I don't want to see you again.'‘No,' replies the Soul. ‘I want to meet you again.''How?' asks the Fisherman. "You cannot follow me under the sea.’'Every year I can come back to this place,' says the Soul. ‘I can call you and you can come.''OK,' replies the Fisherman. 'I can come.'The Fisherman jumps into the water. The Tritons blow their horns and the little Mermaid comes to meet him. She kisses him. They go down under the water.The Soul watches on the beach. He is all alone.6 THE FIRST YEARThe first year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore. He calls the Fisherman. The Fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’"Come and listen to my story,' says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.The Soul begins his story:I decide to go to the East. Everything in the East is wise. I travel for six days. On the seventh day I come to the land of the Tartars. There are lots of hills and the land is dry and hot. I sit under a tree and watch. People come and go. Then the Tartars go and fight.The moon is high. I see a fire. There are merchants sitting on carpets. There are tents and camels.I go over and the chief merchant stands up and takes out his sword.'Who are you?' he asks me.'I am a Prince. I am running away from the Tartars. I do not want to be their slave,' | answer.The merchant takes my hand and I sit beside him. Then a servant brings me milk and food.Use the Internet to find out about the Tartars.Who are they?Where do they live?In the morning the caravan starts on its journey. | ride on a red-haired camel next to the chief. The men of war walk with their weapons. Eighty mules follow us with all the things we have to sell. There are forty camels in the caravan.We leave the land of the Tartars and we travel to many strange lands.We come to a land where the people curse the moon, We see gryphons guarding their gold on white rocks, dragons sleeping in their caves. We pass mountains with snow. We pass valleys with pygmies shooting arrows. At night we hear wild men beat their drums.We come to the Tower of the apes. We put fruit before the apes. They do not hurt us.We come to the Tower of the serpents. We give them warm milk in bowls. They allow us to pass. Three times on our journey we cross the river Oxus. We Cross on rafts of wood. The river-horses try to fight us. But they see camels and they are afraid.We pay money to the guards of the cities. But they do not open the doors of their cities. They throw bread and cakes over the walls.We arrive at villages and the people run away in fear.On our journey we fight many battles. Many people on the caravan die in battle. And many people on the caravan die of hunger. The survivors start to talk about me. Do I bring bad fortune?I pick up a snake. It bites me but I don't feel anything. Now the people are afraid of me.After four months we arrive at the city of lllel and we knock at the big metal gates. The guards open the gates and we go to the marketplace. The merchants and the servants start to sell their goods. The people come and look. On the first day the priests come and buy. On the second day the nobles come and buy. On the third day the craftsmen and slaves come and buy.One day I am walking in the streets of the city. I come to the temple of the city's god. There are priests in yellow clothes. The temple is rose-red with bells on the roof. I sit in front of the temple by a pool of cool water. A priest comes to me.'What do you want?' he asks.'I want to see the god,' I reply."The god is sleeping,' says the priest,'Tell me where, and I can watch him sleep,' I answer.'The god is at a feast,’ he cries.'Give me wine and I can drink with him,' I answer.The priest looks at me, then he takes me by the hand and we go into the temple.In the first room I see a statue. It is made of ebony and it is the size of a man. There is a ruby on its forehead.'Is this the god?' I say to the priest."This is the god,' he answers.'This is not the god! Show me the god,' I shout. And I touch his hand and it becomes small.'Cure me and I can show you the god,' he says.So I breathe on his hand and it becomes normal again. The priest is afraid.In the second room I see another statue. It is made of ivory.It is twice' the size of a man and it is sitting on a jade flower.'Is this the god?' I say to the priest.'This is the god,' he answers.'This is not the god! Show me the god!' I shout. And I touch his eyes and he becomes blind.'Cure me and I can show you the god,' says the priest.So I breathe on his eyes and he can see again. Now the pries is afraid.In the third room there are no statues. But there is a round mirror. The mirror is made of metal and it is on a stone step."Where is the god?" I ask the priest.‘There is no god,’ he answers. ‘This is the Mirror of Wisdom. When you look into it, you can see everything in heaven and on earth. But you cannot see your own face. When you look into this mirror, you can see everything and you become wise. Nothing is hidden from you. There are lots of other mirrors in the world but there is only one Mirror of Wisdom. The Mirrors of Wisdom is the god, and we worship it.'I look into the mirror, and I see everything on heaven and on earth. The priest is telling the truth.Then I do a strange thing. I take the mirror and I hide the Mirror of Wisdom. The mirror is in a valley a day's journey from here.This is the end of the Soul's story.Then the Soul turns to the Fisherman and says, "Can I become your soul again? I can become your servant. You can have the Mirror of Wisdom and become wise. You can have Wisdom.'But the Fisherman laughs, "I don't want Wisdom. I want Love,’ he cries. 'The little Mermaid loves me.''No,' says the Soul. "Wisdom is important, too.'I want Love,' answers the Fisherman. He jumps back into the sea.The Soul goes away. He is crying.Do you think the Fisherman chooses well?Which one do you choose? Wisdom or Love?7 THE SECOND YEARThe second year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore.He Calls the Fisherman. The Fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’‘Come and listen to my story,' says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.The Soul begins his story:This time I decide to go to the South. Everything in the South is precious. I travel for six days. On the seventh day I come to the city of Ashter.There are nine gates to this city and there are watch-towers on the walls. In every tower there is an archer with a bow in his hand. At sunrise he hits a gong with his arrow. And at sunset he blows a horn. I try to enter but the guards stop me.'What do you want?' a guard asks me.I am a Dervish,' l answer. 'I am travelling to the city of Mecca.'The guards open the gates and I enter the city.Inside the city there is a bazaar. There are coloured Paper lanterns. The merchants sit on silk carpets. They have straight black beards and golden turbans. They sell perfumes from the islands in the Indian Sea. They sell oils and spices. They sell silver bracelets, earrings and rings, all decorated with precious stones. They sell fine wine from Shiraz. The wine is sweet, like honey. I can hear guitars playing in the tea-houses and the air smells sweet.In the marketplace there are the fruit-sellers. They sell all kinds of fruit: purple figs', yellow melons, red apples, white grapes, red-gold oranges and yellow-green lemons. I see an elephant eating oranges at a stall. Everyone is looking at it and laughing.In Ashter the people are strange. When they are happy, they go to the bird-seller and they buy a bird in a cage. They free the bird from the cage. And their happiness becomes greater. But when they are sad, they take thorns. They hurt themselves with the thorns because they do not want their sadness to go away.One evening I meet some men. They are crying a chair through the bazaar. It is made of bamboo. The windows have beautiful curtains. A beautiful white face looks out at me and smiles. She is Circassian. The men are moving quickly but I follow behind. I want to see the beautiful white face again.They stop at a square white house. The house has no windows. There is a little door, like the door of a tomb. They knock three times and an Armenian looks out. He puts a carpet on the ground. The woman steps out. She turns and smiles at me again.When the moon rises I return to the same place. I look for the house. But it is not there. I do not see the beautiful woman again.On the feast of the New Moon the young Emperor leaves his palace to pray. His hair and beard are colored with rose-leaves. His cheeks are covered with gold dust. The palms of his feet and hands are yellow with saffron.At sunrise he leaves the palace with a silver robe. And at sunset he returns to his palace with a gold robe. The people in the street see him. They lie on the ground and they cover their faces. But I do not. I stand and look at him. The Emperor sees me and stops. He waits for me to obey. But I do not obey. The people tell me to leave the city. But I do not.In the evening I am in the tea-house in the Street of Pomegranates. I am lying on soft cushions on the floor. The Emperor’s guards enter. They take me and they lead me to the palace. They close the doors. They put a chain on the door. There is a great court inside. The walls are white with some green and blue drawings. The pillars are of green marble and the floor is pink.I cross the court. Two veiled women shout at me from a balcony. But the guards move meforward. They open a gate we go into a garden. A nightingale sings from a tree.At the end of the garden there is a little pavilion. Two fat men come to meet us. As they walk, they are eating sweets and fruit from the trees. They and the guards leave me in front of the pavilion and I go in.The young Emperor is lying on lion skins. There is a slave standing behind him. On a table there is big scimitar sword.The Emperor sees me and says, ‘Who are you? Do you know I am the Emperor of this city?'But I do not answer.The Emperor points to the scimitar sword. The slave takes it and attacks me. The sword goes through my body. But it does not hurt me. The slave falls to the floor. He is very afraid. The Emperor jumps to his feet. He tries to attack me but he cannot hurt me, either.The Emperor then kills the slave. Now the slave cannot tell anyone about me.The Emperor looks at me and cries, 'Are you a magician? Why can I not kill you? Leave my city. I cannot be the ruler of the city with you here. Leave the city and I can be the ruler, again.' "Give me half your treasure, ' I answer.' Then I can leave.'The Emperor takes me by the hand. We go out into the garden. We pass the guard and the fat men. They look at me in fear.We enter the palace and go to a large room. The Emperor touches one of the walls and it opens. We walk down a corridor that is lit by many torches. When we arrive at the centre of the corridor, the Emperor says a magic word and a big stone door opens. The Emperor puts his hand over his face to protect his eyes.Inside, the room is full of treasure: pearls, rubies, gold, gold dust, opals, sapphires, jade, emeralds…The Emperor takes his hands away from his face.'This is my house of treasure,’he says. ‘ I can give you half of my treasure. I can also give you camels and camel drivers. Then you must leave. You can leave tonight. Leave before the sun rises. ‘l don’t want your treasure,’ I say. ‘I want the Iittle ring on your finger.’‘lt is only a poor ring,' he cries. ‘It has no value. Take half my treasure and leave the city.’What do you think the ring can do?口It is a ring of love.It is a ring of riches.口It is a ring of no value.口It is a ring of wisdom.'No,' I answer. 'I want your ring. I know there is writing inside it. I know it is an important ring. It is the Ring of Riches.'The Emperor is afraid and he says, 'Take all the treasure and leave my city. Take my half of the treasure, too.’Then I do a strange thing. I take the Ring of Riches and hide it. The ring is in a cave a day's journey from here.This is the end cf the Soul's story."Come,' says the Soul to the Fisherman. 'Come with me to the cave. You can have the Ring ofRiches. You can have all the riches in the world. You can be rich.'But the Fisherman laughs, 'I want Love, not Riches,' he cries. 'The little Mermaid loves me.'‘No,’ says the Soul. 'Riches are important, too.''No, I want Love,' answers the Fisherman. He jumps back into the sea.The Soul goes away. He is crying.8 THE THIRD YEARThe third year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore. He calls the Fisherman. The fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’'Come and listen to my travels,’ says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.‘I know a city not far from here,’ says the Soul to the Fisherman. ‘There is a beautiful girl there. This girl can dance very well. She dances in her bare feet and with a veil on her face. She is a marvelous dancer. This city is a day’s journey from here.’The fisherman listens to the words of the Soul. He remembers his little Mermaid She has no feet and she cannot dance. The Fisherman wants to see the beautiful dancer. He thinks, ‘It is only a day's journey from here and then I can return to my love.'The Fisherman laughs and stands up in the water. He goes to the shore. He laughs again on the beach. He holds out his arms to his Soul. His Soul cries for joy. He runs to meet the Fisherman and becomes one with him. The Fisherman sees his shadow on the sand. His Soul is part of him, again.'Come, follow me,' says the Soul.The Fisherman and his Soul travel fast. They travel all night and all day. They come to a city.‘Is this the city?’ the Fisherman asks his Soul. 'Can we see the dancer?’'No,' answers the Soul, 'this is another city. But we can visit it.'They enter the city. They walk through the streets. They pass the jewellery sellers. The Fisherman sees a silver cup.‘Take the silver cup and hide it,' says his Soul.The Fisherman takes the cup. He hides it in his clothes. They leave the city.When they are far from the city, the Fisherman stops. He is angry. He throws the cup away.‘Why do you tell me to take the cup and hide it?' he asks his Soul. ‘It is an evil thing to do.'But his Soul answers him, 'Be at peace, be at peace.'On the evening of the second day they come to another city.‘Is this the city?' the fisherman asks his Soul. "Can we see the dancer?'‘No,’ answers the Soul, ‘this is a different city. But we visit it.'They enter the city. They walk through the streets. They pass the shoe sellers. The Fisherman sees a child standing by a bottle of water.'Hit the child,' says his Soul.The Fisherman hits the child. He hits the child until it cries. Then they run away.When they are far from the city, the Fisherman stops. He is angry."Why do you tell me to hit the child?' he asks his Soul. ‘It is an evil thing to do.'But his Soul answers him, 'Be at peace, be at peace.'On the evening of the third day they come to a city.‘Is this the city?’ The Fisherman asks his Soul. ’Can we see the dancer?’。

黑布林英语渔夫和他的灵魂标准化管理处编码[BBX968T-XBB8968-NNJ668-MM9N]The Fisherman and His SoulAbout the BookThe Fisherman and His Soul is a short story from Oscar Wilde's collection The HappyPrince and Other Tales. Wilde writes these stories for his children in 1888. The Fisherman and His Soul is the story of a young fisherman. One day he catches amermaid in his fishing net and he falls in love with her. The fisherman learns he cannot be with the mermaid because he has a human soul. The fisherman then tries to send away his human soul. The fisherman learns from a witch how to send his soul away. He is then free to be with his mermaid. His soul is alone in the world. He travels the world. Each year he comes back to the fisherman and tells him about his travels.One of the themes of the story is temptation. In the story the mermaid tempts the fisherman with stories of the sea. The fisherman tempts the witch to help him send away his soul. And his soul tries to tempt the fisherman to leave the mermaid.But the main theme of the story is love. Love is more important than anything. The soul cannot tempt the fisherman because the fisherman’s love is too strong. And in the end, we discover that you cannot live without love.The Fisherman and His Soul is an exotic story with Oriental and Eastern influences. There are also mermaids, witches and devils. The language ispoetic and is full of allegory.1THE MERMAIDEvery evening the young Fisherman goes out on the sea. He throws his netsinto the water. When the wind blows from the land, he doesn't catch many fish. But when the wind blows from the sea, he catches lots of fish and he can sell them at the market.One evening the Fisherman's net is very heavy. He thinks, 'Are all the fishin the sea in my net? Or is there a monster in my net?' He pulls and he pulls his net.There are no fish or monsters in his net. But there is a little Mermaid and she is sleeping.The Mermaid's hair is golden. Her body is white. Her tail is silver and pearl. Her ears are like sea-shells and her lips are like sea-coral.Her beauty makes the Fisherman very happy. He leans out of the boat. He takes the Mermaid in his arms. She wakes up when he touches her. She cries like a seagull and she wants to escape. But the Fisherman holds the Mermaid in his arms.‘Please free me,' the Mermaid cries. "I am the only da ughter of the King. My father is old and alone. ‘Make me a promise,' says the Fisherman. "I can freeyou. B please come when I call you. You can sing to me and to the fish. Thenmy nets can always be full of fish."‘I promise,' cries the Mermaid.The fisherman opens his arms and fees the frightened Mermaid.She swims down under the water.What is not a promise?口A statement in which you say that something will definitely happen.口You will definitely do something.口You will definitely not do something.口You guess something will happen.Every evening the Fisherman goes out on the sea. He calls the Mermaid. She comes out of the water and sings to him. The dolphins swim round and round the Mermaid. The seagulls fly round and round the Mermaid.The Mermaid sings a beautiful song. She sings of the Sea-folk and of the palace of the King. She sings of the gardens of the sea full of coral and fish. She sings of whales, sea lions and seahorses. She sings of sunken ships and of Mermaids holding out their arms to the sailors, calling them into the sea.The Mermaid sings and sings. All the fish come from the bottom of the sea to listen to her. The Fisherman throws his nets into the sea. His nets and boatare full of fish. Then the Mermaid stops singing. She smiles at the Fisherman and she swims back under the sea.Every evening the Fisherman calls the Mermaid. And every evening she singsfor him. But she does not come near him. The Fisherman tries to touch her. But she swims back under the Sea.Every evening the Fisherman listens to the Mermaid. Her Song and her voice are sweet to his ears. And the Fisherman forgets his nets and the fish. His eyes are full of love.One evening the Fisherman calls to the Mermaid.'Li ttle Mermaid, little Mermaid, | love you. Can I be your husband?' he says. But the Mermaid shakes her head.'No,' she says. 'You have a human soul. I cannot love you with your human soul. Send away your human soul and I can love you.'The Fisherman thinks, 'I have a soul. But I cannot see it. I cannot touch it.I do not need it. I can send it away. Then I can be happy with my little Mermaid.'The Fisherman is full of joy. He stands in his boat. He opens his arms to the Mermaid.‘I can send my soul away,' he cries. "You can be my wife' and I can be your husband. We can live together at the bottom of the sea. You can show me your kingdom. We can be together."The little Mermaid is very happy. She laughs and hides her face in her hands.‘How can I send my soul away?' cries the Fisherman.'I do not know,' says the little Mermaid sadly. ‘The Sea-folk have no souls.’Then she swims back down under the sea. She is sad now.2 THE PRIESTEarly the next morning the Fisherman goes to the Priest's house.He knocks three times on the door.The fisherman enters the house and kneels on the floor. The Priest is reading. 'Father,' he says to the Priest, ‘I am in love with a Mermaid. I can send my soul away.My soul is not important to me. It has no value to me.| cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it.’‘Are you mad?’ replies the Pr iest. ‘Of course you need your soul. Godgives us our souls to do good things. Human souls are precious. Very precious. Forget the Mermaid. The Sea-folk arelost. Good and evil are the same for them. They have no place in heaven.'The Fisherman is sad. He has tears in his eyes. He stands and says, 'Father, I want to be one of the Sea-folk. I don't want my soul. I want to be with my love. My Mermaid is beautiful, like the stars and the moon. I love her, Idon't need my soul. I don't need a place in heaven. Help me. Help me send away my soul.'"Go away! Go away!' cries the Priest. 'You are lost. Lost with your Mermaid.' The Priest sends the Fisherman away and he shuts his door.Fill in the blank.Human souls are important for humans because human souls are precious/ God gives us our souls to do good things.3 THE MERCHANTSThe Fisherman walks to the marketplace. He is sad.The merchants in the marketplace see him. One of the merchants see the fisherman, "What do you have to sell?’‘M y soul.’ answers the Fisherman. 'Please buy it. I cannot us e it. I cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it.’But the merchants laugh.‘We cannot buy your soul,' they say. "Your soul has no v alue for us. Become a slave and we can sell your body. We can dress you in purple and give you a ring. You can become the great Queen's slave.''How strange,' thinks the Fisherman. 'For the priest my soul has great value, but for the merchants it has no value.' And he walks away. He goes to the sea to think.Why does the Fisherman's soul have no value for the merchants?Because the merchants can not sell it.Because his soul is very cheap.Because the merchants sell other goods.Because his soul doesn’t have a price in the market.4 THE WITCHLater the Fisherman remembers a young Witch. His friend knows her. She is good at spells.The Fisherman runs to her cave.‘I want a small thing,' says the Fisherman. 'The Priest says “no" and the merchants laugh. Now I come to you. You can help me and I can pay your price.' 'What do you want?' asks the Witch. She comes near to the Fisherman.'I want to send my soul away,' says the Fisherman.The Witch grows pale. She hides her face in her blue cloak. "Fisherman, Fisherman,' she says, 'It is terrible to send your soul away.'The Fisherman laughs, 'My soul is not important for me,' he answers. "I cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it.'‘What can you give me?" asks the Witch. Her beautiful eyes look at the Fisherman.‘Five pieces of gol d’, he say, "my nets, my house and my boat. Tell me how to send my soul away. Then I can give you everything.'The Witch laughs, ‘With my spells I can have gold and silver. Money is not import ant to me. ’'If you don’t want gold or silver, what can I give you?’ Cries the Fisherman.The Witch touches the Fisherman's hair. Her hand is thin and white. 'Dance with me, Fisherman,' She says. She is smiling.‘Is that al l?’! asks the Fisherman.'That is all,' she answers. She smiles again.‘We can dance at sunset,' he says. 'Then you can tell me how to send my soul away.'The witch shakes her head."When the moon is full,' she says. She goes over to the Fisherman and she speaks close to his ear. 'Tonight at the top of the mountain,' she whispers. The Fisherman looks at the Witch.'Wait for me at the top of the mountain, under the tree. When the moon is full, we can dance together.'"Yes,' cries the Fisherman.' Tonight we can dance. It is a small price for me.'He runs back to the town. He is happy.The Witch watches him leave. She goes into the cave. She looks in a mirror. She is angry."Why does he not love me? I am beautiful, too. Why does he love the Mermaid and not me?'Why is the Witch very angry?Because she cannot dance with the Fisherman.Because the Fisherman loves the Mermaid, not her.Because the Fisherman thinks she is ugly.Because the Witch can do nothing for the Fisherman.In the evening the moon rises in the sky. The Fisherman climbs to the top of the mountain. He waits under the tree. He sees the sea below. There arefishing boats on the sea.At midnight the witches come. They fly in the air like bats. They land on the top of the mountain. Then the young Witch arrives. Her red hair blows in the wind. She is wearing a gold dress and a green hat.The Witch walks to the tree. She pulls the Fisherman into the light of the moon. They begin to dance. They dance and dance. Round and round."Faster,' cries the Witch. 'Faster, faster!'Now everything is going round and round. The Fisherman feels frightened. He feels evil in the air. The Witch and the Fisherman are dancing round and round. He hears the Witch laugh.Then a dog barks and the dancers stop."Come!" whispers the Witch to the Fisherman. He follows her. But first hesays the holy name.At that moment the witches scream and fly away. The Witch with the red hair also tries to go away. But the Fisherman Catches her and holds her in his arms. Why do the witches scream and fly away?What is happening?Because in calling the holy name the Fisherman is sending their ‘evil’spirits and powers away.'Free me,' says the Witch.'No,' he answers. 'Tell me the secret.''What secret?' says the Witch. She fights like a wild cat. She wants to be free.'You know,' he replies.He holds her in his arms. She cannot escape.'Am I not beautiful like the daughter of the sea?' she whispers close to the Fisherman's face."Keep your promise. Don't be a false witch,' the Fisherman says.The Witch grows pale.'As you wish,' she says. ‘It is your soul, not mine.'The Witch gives him a little knife.‘What is this for?' the Fisherman asks.The Witch is silent for a few moments. She is afraid. Then she says, 'Man has a shadow'. This shadow is not the shadow of your body. It is the body of your soul. Stand on the seashore with the moon behind you. Then cut away yourshadow from your body. Cut away your soul's body. Send your soul away. Then your soul can leave you.'The Fisherman is afraid, too. 'Is this true?' he says.'It is true,' she cries. 'But you can only do it once.' She holds his knees, and she is crying.The Fisherman pushes the Witch away. He puts the knife into his belt and he climbs down the mountain.5 THE SOULThe Fisherman climbs down the mountain. The Fisherman's soul calls to him,'Don't send me away. Please, don't send me away.''You are not important to me,' says the Fisherman. 'Go away. Go where you want. My love is calling me.'The Fisherman arrives at the seashore. He stands with his back to the moon. He looks at the sea. White arms are calling him. His shadow lies before him. His shadow is the body of his Soul.The Soul speaks again, 'Send me away with your heart.''How can I love my Mermaid with no heart?' replies the Fisherman.'Be kind,' says the Soul. 'Give me your heart.''My heart is for my Mermaid. Go!''Can I not also love?' the Soul tries again.‘Go! You are not important to me,' cries the Fisherman. He takes the little knife and he cuts his shadow away from his feet.The shadow rises and stands before him. The shadow is the same size as the Fisherman.‘Go!' says the Fisherman. "I don't want to see you again.'‘No,' r eplies the Soul. ‘I want to meet you again.''How?' asks the Fisherman. "You cannot follow me under the sea.’'Every year I can come back to this place,' says the Soul. ‘I can call you and you can come.''OK,' replies the Fisherman. 'I can come.'The Fisherman jumps into the water. The Tritons blow their horns and thelittle Mermaid comes to meet him. She kisses him. They go down under the water. The Soul watches on the beach. He is all alone.6 THE FIRST YEARThe first year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore. He calls the Fisherman. The Fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’"Come and listen to my story,' says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.The Soul begins his story:I decide to go to the East. Everything in the East is wise. I travel for six days. On the seventh day I come to the land of the Tartars. There are lots of hills and the land is dry and hot. I sit under a tree and watch. People come and go. Then the Tartars go and fight.The moon is high. I see a fire. There are merchants sitting on carpets. There are tents and camels. I go over and the chief merchant stands up and takes out his sword.'Who are you?' he asks me.'I am a Prince. I am running away from the Tartars. I do not want to be their slave,' | answer.The merchant takes my hand and I sit beside him. Then a servant brings me milk and food.Use the Internet to find out about the Tartars.Who are they?Where do they live?In the morning the caravan starts on its journey. | ride on a red-haired camel next to the chief. The men of war walk with their weapons. Eighty mules follow us with all the things we have to sell. There are forty camels in the caravan. We leave the land of the Tartars and we travel to many strange lands.We come to a land where the people curse the moon, We see gryphons guarding their gold on white rocks, dragons sleeping in their caves. We pass mountains with snow. We pass valleys with pygmies shooting arrows. At night we hear wild men beat their drums.We come to the Tower of the apes. We put fruit before the apes. They do nothurt us.We come to the Tower of the serpents. We give them warm milk in bowls. They allow us to pass.Three times on our journey we cross the river Oxus. We Cross on rafts of wood. The river-horses try to fight us. But they see camels and they are afraid.We pay money to the guards of the cities. But they do not open the doors of their cities. They throw bread and cakes over the walls.We arrive at villages and the people run away in fear.On our journey we fight many battles. Many people on the caravan die in battle. And many people on the caravan die of hunger. The survivors start to talkabout me. Do I bring bad fortune? I pick up a snake. It bites me but I don't feel anything. Now the people are afraid of me.After four months we arrive at the city of lllel and we knock at the big metal gates. The guards open the gates and we go to the marketplace. The merchants and the servants start to sell theirgoods. The people come and look. On the first day the priests come and buy. On the second day the nobles come and buy. On the third day the craftsmen and slaves come and buy.One day I am walking in the streets of the city. I come to the temple of the city's god. There are priests in yellow clothes. The temple is rose-red with bells on the roof. I sit in front of the temple by a pool of cool water. A priest comes to me.'What do you want?' he asks.'I want to see the god,' I reply."The god is sleeping,' says the priest,'Tell me where, and I can watch him sleep,' I answer.'The god is at a feast,’ he cries.'Give me wine and I can drink with him,' I answer.The priest looks at me, then he takes me by the hand and we go into the temple.In the first room I see a statue. It is made of ebony and it is the size of a man. There is a ruby on its forehead.'Is this the god?' I say to the priest."This is the god,' he answers.'This is not the god! Show me the god,' I shout. And I touch his hand and it becomes small.'Cure me and I can show you the god,' he says.So I breathe on his hand and it becomes normal again. The priest is afraid.In the second room I see another statue. It is made of ivory.It is twice' the size of a man and it is sitting on a jade flower.'Is this the god?' I say to the priest.'This is the god,' he answers.'This is not the god! Show me the god!' I shout. And I touch his eyes and he becomes blind.'Cure me and I can show you the god,' says the priest.So I breathe on his eyes and he can see again. Now the pries is afraid.In the third room there are no statues. But there is a round mirror. The mirror is made of metal and it is on a stone step."Where is the god?" I ask the priest.‘There is no god,’ he answers. ‘This is the Mirror of Wisdom. When you look into it, you can seeeverything in heaven and on earth. But you cannot see your own face. When you look into this mirror, you can see everything and you become wise. Nothing is hidden from you. There are lots of other mirrors in the world but there is only one Mirror of Wisdom. The Mirrors of Wisdom is the god, and we worship it.'I look into the mirror, and I see everything on heaven and on earth. Thepriest is telling the truth.Then I do a strange thing. I take the mirror and I hide the Mirror of Wisdom. The mirror is in a valley a day's journey from here.This is the end of the Soul's story.Then the Soul turns to the Fisherman and says, "Can I become your soul again?I can become your servant. You can have the Mirror of Wisdom and become wise. You can have Wisdom.'But the Fisherman laughs, "I don't want Wisdom. I want Love,’ he cries. 'The little Mermaid loves me.''No,' says the Soul. "Wisdom is important, too.'I want Love,' answers the Fisherman. He jumps back into the sea.The Soul goes away. He is crying.Do you think the Fisherman chooses well?Which one do you choose? Wisdom or Love?7 THE SECOND YEARThe second year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore.He Calls the Fisherman. The Fisherman rises from the deep water and says,‘Why do you call me?’‘Come and listen to my story,' says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.The Soul begins his story:This time I decide to go to the South. Everything in the South is precious. I travel for six days. On the seventh day I come to the city of Ashter.There are nine gates to this city and there are watch-towers on the walls. In every tower there is an archer with a bow in his hand. At sunrise he hits a gong with his arrow. And at sunset he blows a horn. I try to enter but the guards stop me.'What do you want?' a guard asks me.I am a Dervish,' l answer. 'I am travelling to the city of Mecca.'The guards open the gates and I enter the city.Inside the city there is a bazaar. There are coloured Paper lanterns. The merchants sit on silk carpets. They have straight black beards and golden turbans. They sell perfumes from the islands in the Indian Sea. They sell oils and spices. They sell silver bracelets, earrings and rings, all decorated with precious stones. They sell fine wine from Shiraz. The wine is sweet, like honey. I can hear guitars playing in the tea-houses and the air smells sweet. In the marketplace there are the fruit-sellers. They sell all kinds of fruit: purple figs', yellow melons, red apples, white grapes, red-gold oranges and yellow-green lemons. I see an elephanteating oranges at a stall. Everyone is looking at it and laughing.In Ashter the people are strange. When they are happy, they go to the bird-seller and they buy a bird in a cage. They free the bird from the cage. And their happiness becomes greater. But when they are sad, they take thorns. They hurt themselves with the thorns because they do not want their sadness to go away.One evening I meet some men. They are crying a chair through the bazaar. It is made of bamboo. The windows have beautiful curtains. A beautiful white face looks out at me and smiles. She is Circassian. The men are moving quickly but I follow behind. I want to see the beautiful white face again.They stop at a square white house. The house has no windows. There is a little door, like the door of a tomb. They knock three times and an Armenian looks out. He puts a carpet on the ground.The woman steps out. She turns and smiles at me again.When the moon rises I return to the same place. I look for the house. But itis not there. I do not see the beautiful woman again.On the feast of the New Moon the young Emperor leaves his palace to pray. His hair and beard are colored with rose-leaves. His cheeks are covered with gold dust. The palms of his feet andhands are yellow with saffron.At sunrise he leaves the palace with a silver robe. And at sunset he returnsto his palace with a gold robe. The people in the street see him. They lie on the ground and they cover their faces.But I do not. I stand and look at him. The Emperor sees me and stops. He waits for me to obey. But I do not obey. The people tell me to leave the city. But I do not.In the evening I am in the tea-house in the Street of Pomegranates. I am lying on soft cushions on the floor. The Emperor’s guards enter. They take me and they lead me to the palace. They close the doors. They put a chain on the door. There is a great court inside. The walls are white with some green and blue drawings. The pillars are of green marble and the floor is pink.I cross the court. Two veiled women shout at me from a balcony. But the guards move me forward. They open a gate we go into a garden. A nightingale singsfrom a tree.At the end of the garden there is a little pavilion. Two fat men come to meet us. As they walk, they are eating sweets and fruit from the trees. They andthe guards leave me in front of the pavilion and I go in.The young Emperor is lying on lion skins. There is a slave standing behind him. On a table there is big scimitar sword.The Emperor sees me and says, ‘Who are you? Do you know I am the Emperor of this city?'But I do not answer.The Emperor points to the scimitar sword. The slave takes it and attacks me. The sword goes through my body. But it does not hurt me. The slave falls tothe floor. He is very afraid. The Emperor jumps to his feet. He tries toattack me but he cannot hurt me, either.The Emperor then kills the slave. Now the slave cannot tell anyone about me.The Emperor looks at me and cries, 'Are you a magician? Why can I not kill you? Leave my city. I cannot be the ruler of the city with you here. Leave the city and I can be the ruler, again.'"Give me half your treasure, ' I answer.' Then I can leave.'The Emperor takes me by the hand. We go out into the garden. We pass the guard and the fat men. They look at me in fear.We enter the palace and go to a large room. The Emperor touches one of the walls and it opens. We walk down a corridor that is lit by many torches. When we arrive at the centre of the corridor,the Emperor says a magic word and a big stone door opens. The Emperor puts his hand over his face to protect his eyes.Inside, the room is full of treasure: pearls, rubies, gold, gold dust, opals, sapphires, jade, emeralds…The Emperor takes his hands away from his face.'This is my house of treasure,’he says. ‘ I can give you half of my treasure. I can also give you camels and camel drivers. Then you must leave. You can leave tonight. Leave before the sun rises.‘l don’t want your treasure,’ I say. ‘I want the Iitt le ring on your finger.’‘lt is only a poor ring,' he cries. ‘It has no value. Take half my treasure and leave the city.’What do you think the ring can do?口It is a ring of love.It is a ring of riches.口It is a ring of no value.口It is a ring of wisdom.'No,' I answer. 'I want your ring. I know there is writing inside it. I know it is an important ring. It is the Ring of Riches.'The Emperor is afraid and he says, 'Take all the treasure and leave my city. Take my half of the treasure, too.’Then I do a strange thing. I take the Ring of Riches and hide it. The ring is in a cave a day's journey from here.This is the end cf the Soul's story."Come,' says the Soul to the Fisherman. 'Come with me to the cave. You can have the Ring of Riches. You can have all the riches in the world. You can be rich.'But the Fisherman laughs, 'I want Love, not Riches,' he cries. 'The little Mermaid loves me.'‘No,’ says the Soul. 'Riches are important, too.''No, I want Love,' answers the Fisherman. He jumps back into the sea.The Soul goes away. He is crying.8 THE THIRD YEARThe third year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore. He calls the Fisherman. The fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’'Come and listen to my travels,’ says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.‘I know a city not far from here,’ says the Soul to the Fisherman. ‘There is a beautiful girl there. This girl can dance very well. She dances in her bare feet and with a veil on her face. She is a marvelous dancer. This city is a day’s journey from here.’The fisherman listens to the words of the Soul. He remembers his little Mermaid She has no feet and she cannot dance. The Fisherman wants to see the beautiful dancer. He thinks, ‘It is only a day's journey from here and then I can return to my love.'The Fisherman laughs and stands up in the water. He goes to the shore. He laughs again on the beach. He holds out his arms to his Soul. His Soul cries for joy. He runs to meet the Fisherman and becomes one with him. The Fisherman sees his shadow on the sand. His Soul is part of him, again.'Come, follow me,' says the Soul.。

黑布林英语阅读渔夫和他的灵魂读后感"The Black Plum: Reflection on the Fisherman and his Soul"The Black Plum is a beautifully written short story by the acclaimed author Oscar Wilde. It tells the tale of a fisherman who catches a mysterious black plum in his net and is warned by his wife not to eat it, as it is said to be cursed. However, the fisherman cannot resist the temptation and eats the plum, which leads to a series of tragic events.The story explores themes of temptation, desire, and the consequences of giving in to our basest instincts. The fisherman's decision to eat the plum symbolizes the human tendency to pursue what we desire, even when we know it may lead to harm. This reflects the age-old question of whether we are ultimately in control of our actions or whether we are driven by our emotions and desires.The fisherman's journey after eating the plum is filled with regret and sorrow as he realizes the price he must pay for his indulgence. His soul is tormented by the guilt of his actions, and he is haunted by the consequences of his decision. This represents the struggle we all face when we give in to our desires and must face the repercussions of our choices.The fisherman's eventual redemption comes in the form of forgiveness and atonement for his sins. Through this process, he is able to find peace and redemption, showing that it is never too late to turn away from temptation and seek forgiveness for our actions.Overall, The Black Plum is a powerful and thought-provoking story that delves into the complexities of human nature and the consequences of our actions. It serves as a reminder to always consider the consequences of our choices and to strive for redemption and forgiveness when we fall prey to temptation.。

But Blackberry was not an ordinary fisherman, he had a special gift - he could talk to animals.One day, while out at sea, Blackberry heard a voice calling for help. He looked around and saw a dolphin trapped in a net. Without hesitation, Blackberry jumped into the water and freed the dolphin. The grateful dolphin thanked Blackberry and promised to help him whenever he needed it.From that day on, Blackberry's catches were always plentiful. The dolphin would guide him to where the fish were, making his job much easier. But Blackberry never forgot to show his gratitude - he always treated the animals with kindness and respect.One day, a rich merchant came to the village and offered to buy Blackberry's dolphin for a large sum of money. ButBlackberry refused, knowing that the dolphin was his friend and not just a means to make money. The merchant was furious and vowed to ruin Blackberry's reputation.But no matter what the merchant did, Blackberry's luck never ran out. The animals of the sea protected him and helped him overcome all obstacles. In the end, the merchant realized the error of his ways and asked Blackberry for forgiveness.The story of Blackberry the fisherman and his soul teaches us an important lesson - to always be kind and respectful to others, no matter their social status or appearance. It's not about how much money you have or how famous you are, but about the relationships you build and the difference you make in the world.So let's all be like Blackberry, the fisherman with a heart of gold, and remember to always treat others with kindness and compassion. Who knows, maybe one day a dolphin will come to our rescue too!篇2Once upon a time, there was a blackberry English fisherman named John.

He thought back to the day he caught the magical blackberry fish and remembered the promise he had made to set it free.John went back to the lake and released the blackberry fish. As soon as he did, he felt a weight lift off his shoulders. He knew that he had done the right thing, and he vowed to live a more humble and honest life.From then on, John focused on helping others and giving back to his community.

It makes me think about how we should be open to making friends with anyone, even if they are different from us.The book also teaches us the importance of being kind and caring for others. Tom takes care of the blackberry and makes sure it is safe and happy. This shows me that we should always look out for our friends and make sure they are okay.Another thing I liked about the book is how it shows that anything is possible if you believe in yourself.

Together, they went on a journey to find the witch who had cursed Blackberry.

黑布林英语渔夫和他的灵魂The Fisherman and His SoulAbout the BookThe Fisherman and His Soul is a short story from Oscar Wilde's collection The HappyPrince and Other Tales. Wilde writes these stories for his children in 1888.The Fisherman and His Soul is the story of a young fisherman. One day he catches amermaid in his fishing net and he falls in love with her. The fisherman learns he cannot be with the mermaid because he has a human soul. The fisherman then tries to send away his human soul. The fisherman learns from a witch how to send his soul away. He is then free to be with his mermaid. His soul is alone in the world. He travels the world. Each year he comes back to the fisherman and tells him about his travels.One of the themes of the story is temptation. In the story the mermaid tempts the fisherman with stories of the sea. The fisherman tempts the witch to help him send away his soul. And his soul tries to tempt the fisherman to leave the mermaid.But the main theme of the story is love. Love is more important than anything. The soul cannot tempt the fisherman because the fisherman’s love is too strong. And in the end, we discover that you cannot live without love.The Fisherman and His Soul is an exotic story with Oriental and Eastern influences. There are also mermaids, witches and devils. The language is poetic and is full of allegory.1THE MERMAIDEvery evening the young Fisherman goes out on the sea. He throws his nets into the water. When the wind blows from the land, he doesn't catch many fish. But when the wind blows from the sea, he catches lots of fish and he can sell them at the market.One evening the Fisherman's net is very heavy. He thinks, 'Are all the fish in the sea in my net? Or is there a monster in my net?' He pulls and he pulls his net. There are no fish or monsters in his net. But there is a little Mermaid and she is sleeping.The Mermaid's hair is golden. Her body is white. Her tail is silver and pearl. Her ears are like sea-shells and her lips are like sea-coral.Her beauty makes the Fisherman very happy. He leans out of the boat. He takes the Mermaid in his arms. She wakes up when he touches her. She cries like a seagull and she wants to escape. But the Fisherman holds the Mermaid in his arms.‘Please free me,' the Mermaid cries. "I am the only daughter of the King. My father is old and alone. ‘Make me a promise,' says the Fisherman. "I can free you.B please come when I call you. You can sing to me and to the fish. Then my nets can always be full of fish."‘I promise,' cries the Mermaid.The fisherman opens his arms and fees the frightened Mermaid.She swims down under the water.What is not a promise?口A statement in which you say that something will definitely happen.口You will definitely do something.口You will definitely not do something.口You guess something will happen.Every evening the Fisherman goes out on the sea. He calls the Mermaid. She comes out of the water and sings to him. The dolphins swim round and round the Mermaid. The seagulls fly round and round the Mermaid.The Mermaid sings a beautiful song. She sings of the Sea-folk and of the palace of the King. She sings of the gardens of the sea full of coral and fish. She sings of whales, sea lions and seahorses. She sings of sunken ships and of Mermaids holding out their arms to the sailors, calling them into the sea.The Mermaid sings and sings. All the fish come from the bottom of the sea to listen to her. The Fisherman throws his nets into the sea. His nets and boat are full of fish. Then the Mermaid stops singing. She smiles at the Fisherman and she swims back under the sea.Every evening the Fisherman calls the Mermaid. And every evening she singsfor him. But she does not come near him. The Fisherman tries to touch her. But she swims back under the Sea.Every evening the Fisherman listens to the Mermaid. Her Song and her voice are sweet to his ears. And the Fisherman forgets his nets and the fish. His eyes are full of love.One evening the Fisherman calls to the Mermaid.'Li ttle Mermaid, little Mermaid, | love you. Can I be your husband?' he says.But the Mermaid shakes her head.'No,' she says. 'You have a human soul. I cannot love you with your human soul. Send away your human soul and I can love you.'The Fisherman thinks, 'I have a soul. But I cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it. I can send it away. Then I can be happy with my little Mermaid.'The Fisherman is full of joy. He stands in his boat. He opens his arms to the Mermaid.‘I can send my soul away,' he cries. "You can be my wife' and I can be your husband. We can live together at the bottom of the sea. You can show me your kingdom. We can be together."The little Mermaid is very happy. She laughs and hides her face in her hands.‘How can I send my soul away?' cries the Fisherman.'I do not know,' says the little Mermaid sadly. ‘The Sea-folk have no souls.’Then she swims back down under the sea. She is sad now.2 THE PRIESTEarly the next morning the Fisherman goes to the Priest's house.He knocks three times on the door.The fisherman enters the house and kneels on the floor. The Priest is reading. 'Father,' he says to the Priest, ‘I am in love with a Mermaid. I can send my soul away.My soul is not important to me. It has no value to me.| cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it.’‘Are you mad?’ replies the Priest. ‘Of course you need your soul. God gives us our souls to do good things. Human souls are precious. Very precious. Forget the Mermaid. The Sea-folk arelost. Good and evil are the same for them. They have no place in heaven.'The Fisherman is sad. He has tears in his eyes. He stands and says, 'Father, I want to be one of the Sea-folk. I don't want my soul. I want to be with my love. My Mermaid is beautiful, like the stars and the moon. I love her, I don't need my soul. I don't need a place in heaven. Help me. Help me send away my soul.' "Go away! Go away!' cries the Priest. 'You are lost. Lost with your Mermaid.' The Priest sends the Fisherman away and he shuts his door.Fill in the blank.Human souls are important for humans because human souls are precious/ God gives us our souls to do good things.3 THE MERCHANTSThe Fisherman walks to the marketplace. He is sad.The merchants in the marketplace see him. One of the merchants see the fisherman, "What do you have to sell?’‘My soul.’ answers the Fisherman. 'Please buy it. I cannot use it. I cannot see it.I cannot touch it. I do not need it.’But the merchants laugh.‘We cannot buy your soul,' they say. "Your soul has no value for us. Become a slave and we can sell your body. We can dress you in purple and give you a ring. You can become the great Queen's slave.''How strange,' thinks the Fisherman. 'For the priest my soul has great value, but for the merchants it has no value.' And he walks away. He goes to the sea to think.Why does the Fisherman's soul have no value for the merchants?Because the merchants can not sell it.Because his soul is very cheap.Because the merchants sell other goods.Because his soul doesn’t have a price in the market.4 THE WITCHLater the Fisherman remembers a young Witch. His friend knows her. She is good at spells.The Fisherman runs to her cave.‘I want a small thing,' says the Fisherman. 'The Priest says “no" and the merchants laugh. Now I come to you. You can help me and I can pay your price.' 'What do you want?' asks the Witch. She comes near to the Fisherman.'I want to send my soul away,' says the Fisherman.The Witch grows pale. She hides her face in her blue cloak. "Fisherman, Fisherman,' she says, 'It is terrible to send your soul away.'The Fisherman laughs, 'My soul is not important for me,' he answers. "I cannot see it. I cannot touch it. I do not need it.'‘What can you give me?" asks the Witch. Her beautiful eyes look at the Fisherman.‘Five pieces of gold’, he say, "my nets, my house and my boat. Tell me how to send my soul away. Then I can give you everything.'The Witch laughs, ‘With my spells I can have gold and silver. Money is not important to me. ’'If you don’t want gold or silver, what can I give you?’ Cries the Fisherman.The Witch touches the Fisherman's hair. Her hand is thin and white. 'Dance with me, Fisherman,' She says. She is smiling.‘Is that all?’! asks the Fisherman.'That is all,' she answers. She smiles again.‘We can dance at sunset,' he says. 'Then you can tell me how to send my soul away.'The witch shakes her head."When the moon is full,' she says. She goes over to the Fisherman and she speaks close to his ear. 'Tonight at the top of the mountain,' she whispers.The Fisherman looks at the Witch.'Wait for me at the top of the mountain, under the tree. When the moon is full, we can dance together.'"Yes,' cries the Fisherman.' Tonight we can dance. It is a small price for me.'He runs back to the town. He is happy.The Witch watches him leave. She goes into the cave. She looks in a mirror. She is angry."Why does he not love me? I am beautiful, too. Why does he love the Mermaid and not me?'Why is the Witch very angry?Because she cannot dance with the Fisherman.Because the Fisherman loves the Mermaid, not her.Because the Fisherman thinks she is ugly.Because the Witch can do nothing for the Fisherman.In the evening the moon rises in the sky. The Fisherman climbs to the top of the mountain. He waits under the tree. He sees the sea below. There are fishing boats on the sea.At midnight the witches come. They fly in the air like bats. They land on the top of the mountain. Then the young Witch arrives. Her red hair blows in the wind. She is wearing a gold dress and a green hat.The Witch walks to the tree. She pulls the Fisherman into the light of the moon. They begin to dance. They dance and dance. Round and round."Faster,' cries the Witch. 'Faster, faster!'Now everything is going round and round. The Fisherman feels frightened. He feels evil in the air. The Witch and the Fisherman are dancing round and round. He hears the Witch laugh.Then a dog barks and the dancers stop."Come!" whispers the Witch to the Fisherman. He follows her. But first he says the holy name.At that moment the witches scream and fly away. The Witch with the red hair also tries to go away. But the Fisherman Catches her and holds her in his arms.Why do the witches scream and fly away?What is happening?Because in calling the holy name the Fisherman is sending their ‘evil’spirits and powers away.'Free me,' says the Witch.'No,' he answers. 'Tell me the secret.''What secret?' says the Witch. She fights like a wild cat. She wants to be free.'You know,' he replies.He holds her in his arms. She cannot escape.'Am I not beautiful like the daughter of the sea?' she whispers close to the Fisherman's face."Keep your promise. Don't be a false witch,' the Fisherman says.The Witch grows pale.'As you wish,' she says. ‘It is your soul, not mine.'The Witch gives him a little knife.‘What is this for?' the Fisherman asks.The Witch is silent for a few moments. She is afraid. Then she says, 'Man has a shadow'. This shadow is not the shadow of your body. It is the body of your soul. Stand on the seashore with the moon behind you. Then cut away your shadow from your body. Cut away your soul's body. Send your soul away. Then your soul can leave you.'The Fisherman is afraid, too. 'Is this true?' he says.'It is true,' she cries. 'But you can only do it once.' She holds his knees, and she is crying.The Fisherman pushes the Witch away. He puts the knife into his belt and he climbs down the mountain.5 THE SOULThe Fisherman climbs down the mountain. The Fisherman's soul calls to him, 'Don't send me away. Please, don't send me away.''You are not important to me,' says the Fisherman. 'Go away. Go where you want. My love is calling me.'The Fisherman arrives at the seashore. He stands with his back to the moon. He looks at the sea. White arms are calling him. His shadow lies before him. His shadow is the body of his Soul.The Soul speaks again, 'Send me away with your heart.''How can I love my Mermaid with no heart?' replies the Fisherman.'Be kind,' says the Soul. 'Give me your heart.''My heart is for my Mermaid. Go!''Can I not also love?' the Soul tries again.‘Go! You are not important to me,' cries the Fisherman. He takes the little knife and he cuts his shadow away from his feet.The shadow rises and stands before him. The shadow is the same size as the Fisherman.‘Go!' says the Fisherman. "I don't want to see you again.'‘No,' replies the Soul. ‘I want to meet you again.''How?' asks the Fisherman. "You cannot follow me under the sea.’'Every year I can come back to this place,' says the Soul. ‘I can call you and you can come.''OK,' replies the Fisherman. 'I can come.'The Fisherman jumps into the water. The Tritons blow their horns and the little Mermaid comes to meet him. She kisses him. They go down under the water. The Soul watches on the beach. He is all alone.6 THE FIRST YEARThe first year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore. He calls the Fisherman. The Fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’"Come and listen to my story,' says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.The Soul begins his story:I decide to go to the East. Everything in the East is wise. I travel for six days. On the seventh day I come to the land of the Tartars. There are lots of hills and the land is dry and hot. I sit under a tree and watch. People come and go. Then the Tartars go and fight.The moon is high. I see a fire. There are merchants sitting on carpets. There are tents and camels. I go over and the chief merchant stands up and takes out his sword.'Who are you?' he asks me.'I am a Prince. I am running away from the Tartars. I do not want to be their slave,' | answer.The merchant takes my hand and I sit beside him. Then a servant brings me milk and food.Use the Internet to find out about the Tartars.Who are they?Where do they live?In the morning the caravan starts on its journey. | ride on a red-haired camel next to the chief. The men of war walk with their weapons. Eighty mules follow us with all the things we have to sell. There are forty camels in the caravan.We leave the land of the Tartars and we travel to many strange lands.We come to a land where the people curse the moon, We see gryphons guarding their gold on white rocks, dragons sleeping in their caves. We pass mountains with snow. We pass valleys with pygmies shooting arrows. At night we hear wild men beat their drums.We come to the Tower of the apes. We put fruit before the apes. They do not hurt us.We come to the Tower of the serpents. We give them warm milk in bowls. They allow us to pass.Three times on our journey we cross the river Oxus. We Cross on rafts of wood. The river-horses try to fight us. But they see camels and they are afraid.We pay money to the guards of the cities. But they do not open the doors of their cities. They throw bread and cakes over the walls.We arrive at villages and the people run away in fear.On our journey we fight many battles. Many people on the caravan die in battle. And many people on the caravan die of hunger. The survivors start to talk about me. Do I bring bad fortune? I pick up a snake. It bites me but I don't feel anything. Now the people are afraid of me.After four months we arrive at the city of lllel and we knock at the big metal gates. The guards open the gates and we go to the marketplace. The merchants and the servants start to sell theirgoods. The people come and look. On the first day the priests come and buy. On the second day the nobles come and buy. On the third day the craftsmen and slaves come and buy.One day I am walking in the streets of the city. I come to the temple of the city's god. There are priests in yellow clothes. The temple is rose-red with bells on the roof. I sit in front of the temple by a pool of cool water. A priest comes to me.'What do you want?' he asks.'I want to see the god,' I reply."The god is sleeping,' says the priest,'Tell me where, and I can watch him sleep,' I answer.'The god is at a feast,’ he cries.'Give me wine and I can drink with him,' I answer.The priest looks at me, then he takes me by the hand and we go into the temple. In the first room I see a statue. It is made of ebony and it is the size of a man. There is a ruby on its forehead.'Is this the god?' I say to the priest."This is the god,' he answers.'This is not the god! Show me the god,' I shout. And I touch his hand and it becomes small.'Cure me and I can show you the god,' he says.So I breathe on his hand and it becomes normal again. The priest is afraid.In the second room I see another statue. It is made of ivory.It is twice' the size of a man and it is sitting on a jade flower.'Is this the god?' I say to the priest.'This is the god,' he answers.'This is not the god! Show me the god!' I shout. And I touch his eyes and he becomes blind.'Cure me and I can show you the god,' says the priest.So I breathe on his eyes and he can see again. Now the pries is afraid.In the third room there are no statues. But there is a round mirror. The mirror is made of metal and it is on a stone step."Where is the god?" I ask the priest.‘There is no god,’ he answers. ‘This is the Mirror of Wisdom. When you look into it, you can seeeverything in heaven and on earth. But you cannot see your own face. When you look into this mirror, you can see everything and you become wise. Nothing is hidden from you. There are lots of other mirrors in the world but there is only one Mirror of Wisdom. The Mirrors of Wisdom is the god, and we worship it.'I look into the mirror, and I see everything on heaven and on earth. The priest is telling the truth.Then I do a strange thing. I take the mirror and I hide the Mirror of Wisdom. The mirror is in a valley a day's journey from here.This is the end of the Soul's story.Then the Soul turns to the Fisherman and says, "Can I become your soul again? I can become your servant. You can have the Mirror of Wisdom and become wise. You can have Wisdom.'But the Fisherman laughs, "I don't want Wisdom. I want Love,’ he cries. 'The little Mermaid loves me.''No,' says the Soul. "Wisdom is important, too.'I want Love,' answers the Fisherman. He jumps back into the sea.The Soul goes away. He is crying.Do you think the Fisherman chooses well?Which one do you choose? Wisdom or Love?7 THE SECOND YEARThe second year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore.He Calls the Fisherman. The Fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’‘Come and listen to my story,' says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.The Soul begins his story:This time I decide to go to the South. Everything in the South is precious. I travel for six days. On the seventh day I come to the city of Ashter.There are nine gates to this city and there are watch-towers on the walls. In every tower there is an archer with a bow in his hand. At sunrise he hits a gong with his arrow. And at sunset he blows a horn. I try to enter but the guards stop me.'What do you want?' a guard asks me.I am a Dervish,' l answer. 'I am travelling to the city of Mecca.'The guards open the gates and I enter the city.Inside the city there is a bazaar. There are coloured Paper lanterns. The merchants sit on silk carpets. They have straight black beards and golden turbans. They sell perfumes from the islands in the Indian Sea. They sell oils and spices. They sell silver bracelets, earrings and rings, all decorated with precious stones. They sell fine wine from Shiraz. The wine is sweet, like honey. I can hear guitars playing in the tea-houses and the air smells sweet.In the marketplace there are the fruit-sellers. They sell all kinds of fruit: purple figs', yellow melons, red apples, white grapes, red-gold oranges and yellow-green lemons. I see an elephanteating oranges at a stall. Everyone is looking at it and laughing.In Ashter the people are strange. When they are happy, they go to the bird-seller and they buy a bird in a cage. They free the bird from the cage. And their happiness becomes greater. But when they are sad, they take thorns. They hurt themselves with the thorns because they do not want their sadness to go away.One evening I meet some men. They are crying a chair through the bazaar. It is made of bamboo. The windows have beautiful curtains. A beautiful white face looks out at me and smiles. She is Circassian. The men are moving quickly but I follow behind. I want to see the beautiful white face again.They stop at a square white house. The house has no windows. There is a little door, like the door of a tomb. They knock three times and an Armenian looks out. He puts a carpet on the ground.The woman steps out. She turns and smiles at me again.When the moon rises I return to the same place. I look for the house. But it is not there. I do not see the beautiful woman again.On the feast of the New Moon the young Emperor leaves his palace to pray. His hair and beard are colored with rose-leaves. His cheeks are covered with gold dust. The palms of his feet andhands are yellow with saffron.At sunrise he leaves the palace with a silver robe. And at sunset he returns to his palace with a gold robe. The people in the street see him. They lie on the ground and they cover their faces.But I do not. I stand and look at him. The Emperor sees me and stops. He waits for me to obey. But I do not obey. The people tell me to leave the city. But I do not.In the evening I am in the tea-house in the Street of Pomegranates. I am lying on soft cushions on the floor. The Emperor’s guards enter. They take me and they lead me to the palace. They close the doors. They put a chain on the door. There is a great court inside. The walls are white with some green and blue drawings. The pillars are of green marble and the floor is pink.I cross the court. Two veiled women shout at me from a balcony. But the guards move me forward. They open a gate we go into a garden. A nightingale sings from a tree.At the end of the garden there is a little pavilion. Two fat men come to meet us. As they walk, they are eating sweets and fruit from the trees. They and the guards leave me in front of the pavilion and I go in.The young Emperor is lying on lion skins. There is a slave standing behind him. On a table there is big scimitar sword.The Emperor sees me and says, ‘Who are you? Do you know I am the Emperor of this city?'But I do not answer.The Emperor points to the scimitar sword. The slave takes it and attacks me. The sword goes through my body. But it does not hurt me. The slave falls to the floor. He is very afraid. The Emperor jumps to his feet. He tries to attack me but he cannot hurt me, either.The Emperor then kills the slave. Now the slave cannot tell anyone about me.The Emperor looks at me and cries, 'Are you a magician? Why can I not kill you? Leave my city. I cannot be the ruler of the city with you here. Leave the city and I can be the ruler, again.'"Give me half your treasure, ' I answer.' Then I can leave.'The Emperor takes me by the hand. We go out into the garden. We pass the guard and the fat men. They look at me in fear.We enter the palace and go to a large room. The Emperor touches one of the walls and it opens. We walk down a corridor that is lit by many torches. When we arrive at the centre of the corridor,the Emperor says a magic word and a big stone door opens. The Emperor puts his hand over his face to protect his eyes.Inside, the room is full of treasure: pearls, rubies, gold, gold dust, opals, sapphires, jade, emeralds…The Emperor takes his hands away from his face.'This is my house of treasure,’ he says. ‘ I can give you half of my treasure. I can also give you camels and camel drivers. Then you must leave. You can leave tonight. Leave before the sun rises.‘l don’t want your treasure,’ I say. ‘I want the Iittle ring on your finger.’‘lt is only a poor ring,' he cries. ‘It has no value. Take half my treasure and leave the city.’What do you think the ring can do?口It is a ring of love.It is a ring of riches.口It is a ring of no value.口It is a ring of wisdom.'No,' I answer. 'I want your ring. I know there is writing inside it. I know it is an important ring. It is the Ring of Riches.'The Emperor is afraid and he says, 'Take all the treasure and leave my city. Take my half of the treasure, too.’Then I do a strange thing. I take the Ring of Riches and hide it. The ring is in a cave a day's journey from here.This is the end cf the Soul's story."Come,' says the Soul to the Fisherman. 'Come with me to the cave. You can have the Ring of Riches. You can have all the riches in the world. You can be rich.'But the Fisherman laughs, 'I want Love, not Riches,' he cries. 'The little Mermaid loves me.'‘No,’ says the Soul. 'Riches are important, too.''No, I want Love,' answers the Fisherman. He jumps back into the sea.The Soul goes away. He is crying.8 THE THIRD YEARThe third year passes and the Soul comes back to the seashore. He calls the Fisherman. The fisherman rises from the deep water and says, ‘Why do you call me?’'Come and listen to my travels,’ says the Soul.The Fisherman comes near. He lies in the water. He leans his head on his hand and listens.‘I know a city not far from here,’ says the Soul to the Fisherman. ‘There is a beautiful girl there. This girl can dance very well. She dances in her bare feet and with a veil on her face. She is a marvelous dancer. This city is a day’s journey from here.’The fisherman listens to the words of the Soul. He remembers his little Mermaid She has no feet and she cannot dance. The Fisherman wants to see the beautiful dancer. He thinks, ‘It is only a day's journey from here and then I can return to my love.'The Fisherman laughs and stands up in the water. He goes to the shore. He laughs again on the beach. He holds out his arms to his Soul. His Soul cries for joy. He runs to meet the Fisherman and becomes one with him. The Fisherman sees his shadow on the sand. His Soul is part of him, again.'Come, follow me,' says the Soul.The Fisherman and his Soul travel fast. They travel all night and all day. They come to a city.。

《初一渔夫和他的灵魂》是黑布林（Herman Melville）的一部小说，主要讲述了一个渔夫在海上捕捞鲸鱼的故事。

这部小说深入探讨了人类个体与整体、灵魂与现实的关系，引发了人们对自我、生活和社会的思考。

在本文中，我将从不同角度深入分析《初一渔夫和他的灵魂》，并共享我的个人观点和理解。

一、《初一渔夫和他的灵魂》中渔夫的内心挣扎在小说中，渔夫作为主要人物，经历了种种困境和挣扎。

他在追逐鲸鱼的过程中，不仅面临着与自然界的搏斗，更面临着内心深处的挣扎。

渔夫所面对的不仅仅是鲸鱼，更是他内心的恐惧、欲望和迷失。

这种内心挣扎在现实生活中也常常发生，我们是否能够与内心的恐惧和欲望和解，是一个值得深思的问题。

渔夫在捕捞鲸鱼的过程中，不仅仅是对自然界的挑战，更是对自己内心深处的探索。

他渴望取得成功，但又害怕因此失去自己的灵魂。

这种内外在的冲突使得渔夫的生活充满了挑战和矛盾，也引发了对灵魂和现实的思考。

三、对自我的认知和追求通过《初一渔夫和他的灵魂》，我们不禁思考：渔夫追求的成功是否能带来内心的平静和满足？他是否能够实现对自我的认知和追求？这也引发了我们对自我认知和追求的思考。

在当今社会，成功往往被定义为物质财富和地位的取得，而忽视了内心世界的探索和满足。

《初一渔夫和他的灵魂》提醒我们，与其盲目地追求外在的成功，不如先思考自己内心的真正需求和渴望。

总结与回顾通过对《初一渔夫和他的灵魂》的深度分析，我们深刻地认识到了人与自然、灵魂与现实之间的关系。

在现实生活中，我们也常常面临内心的挣扎和现实的碰撞。

我们需要在追求成功的不忽视内心世界的探索和满足。

只有与自己的内心和解，我们才能获得真正的幸福和满足。

黑布林英语渔夫和他的灵魂读后感300The Black Bream Fisherman and His Soulful Reading ExperienceThe salty breeze caressed my face as I stood on the weathered wooden dock watching the sun dip below the horizon casting a warm glow over the gently lapping waves of the bay A flock of seagulls soared overhead their cries mingling with the distant hum of the fishing boats returning to shore for the day I closed my eyes and allowed the familiar sights and sounds of the coastal town to wash over me transporting me back to a time long ago when I first encountered the story of the black bream fisherman and his soulful reading experienceIt was a cool autumn afternoon many years ago when I stumbled upon a tattered paperback in the window of the local used bookshop The worn cover and yellowed pages immediately piqued my curiosity and I couldn't resist stepping inside to retrieve the book and lose myself in its pages As I flipped through the weathered tome I was captivated by the tale of a simple fisherman whose life was forever changed by the power of the written wordThe story followed the life of Jiro a weathered yet gentle soul who had spent his entire life fishing the bountiful waters of the bay His days were a rhythmic dance of casting his nets mending his lines and hauling in his daily catch a routine that had become as familiar to him as the tides that ebbed and flowed around him Though his life was modest Jiro found great joy and solace in the quiet moments spent alone on his small wooden boat watching the sun rise and set over the glimmering wavesOne day as Jiro was tending to his fishing gear a young woman approached him on the dock She was a newcomer to the town acity-dweller who had come to the coast in search of inspiration for her writing She introduced herself to Jiro and struck up a conversation inquiring about his life as a fisherman Jiro was hesitant at first unused to such direct interaction with strangers but there was something about the woman's warm smile and genuine curiosity that soon put him at ease Over the course of several chance encounters the woman and the fisherman formed an unexpected friendship bonding over their shared love of the natural world and the simple pleasures of lifeOne afternoon the woman presented Jiro with a weathered old book a collection of philosophical essays that had been passed down through her family for generations She explained that the book hadbeen a source of great comfort and inspiration to her and she hoped that Jiro might find it equally enlightening Jiro graciously accepted the gift though he was skeptical about his ability to comprehend the complex ideas contained within its pages After all he was a simple man with little formal education his days spent in solitude on the water rather than poring over tomes in a libraryYet as Jiro began to read the book something remarkable happened The words on the page seemed to come alive speaking directly to his soul the profound insights and timeless wisdom resonating with him in a way he had never experienced before He found himself utterly captivated losing track of time as he became immersed in the ideas explored within the weathered pages The fisherman who had once been content with the simple rhythms of his daily life now found himself grappling with deep questions about the nature of existence the meaning of life and the pursuit of true happinessIn the weeks and months that followed Jiro's daily routine began to shift He still spent his mornings on the water casting his nets and hauling in his catch but now he would return to shore earlier than usual eager to continue his reading diving deeper into the philosophical treatises that had so enraptured him His friends and neighbors grew concerned worried that the fisherman had become consumed by this newfound obsession But Jiro paid them little mind for he had discovered a wellspring of knowledge and insight thathad forever altered his perspective on the worldAs the seasons changed and the years passed Jiro's reputation as a thoughtful and introspective man began to grow within the small coastal community People would often seek him out on the dock curious to hear his thoughts on the books he had been reading and the ideas that had so captivated him Some were skeptical of the fisherman's sudden intellectual awakening while others were intrigued finding themselves unexpectedly drawn into philosophical discussions under the glow of the setting sunJiro in turn found great joy in sharing his newfound knowledge imparting the wisdom he had gleaned from his reading to anyone who would listen He took particular delight in engaging the young people of the town encouraging them to look beyond the confines of their daily lives and to embrace the boundless possibilities of the mind He spoke passionately about the transformative power of literature the ability of the written word to open one's eyes to new ways of seeing the world and to challenge long-held beliefs and assumptionsIn his later years Jiro's reputation as a sage and mentor only grew as he continued to devour book after book sharing his insights and observations with all who would listen His small wooden boat became a gathering place for the intellectually curious a floatingoasis of learning and discourse where the fisherman would hold court regaling his companions with tales of his philosophical awakening and the profound impact it had had on his lifeAnd so it was that the simple black bream fisherman who had once been content with the quiet rhythms of his daily life on the water became a beacon of wisdom and enlightenment within his community a living embodiment of the transformative power of the written word His story serves as a testament to the idea that knowledge and understanding can be found in the most unexpected of places and that the pursuit of truth and meaning can take us on the most remarkable of journeys if only we have the courage to open our minds and embrace the unknown。
