Reading ReportThe book which I read is <<British and American Studies>>. Its most parts overlap with the book we learn in class, but they are described in more detail. Its contents include many parts which are hard to list completely. Now I want to talk about the parts I am interested in.About the UK part I like the Section Five: Culture and Social Life of Chapter One. First of all, it is nature to know the concept of the culture. It refers to the patterns of behavior and thinking that people living in social groups of learn, create and share. The historical background of its culture is Normans conquered which had a great influence continued to guide the evolution. Traditionally, the British culture has been characterized by its requirement of decency and civility in doing things and made the English people very careful about what and how to say. Secondly, British families play an important role in British people's culture and social life. After Christianity was introduced into Britain, a valid relationship between husband and wife was that they were not allowed to divorce without permission of the church. It is funny to find that British a married woman had to take her husband's surname historically, just like in ancient China, but differently, this phenomenon still exists in Britain .And the British people believe that parents should take care of their children. If parents cannot provide the necessities of life, an element of equality and independence, the government would take over the responsibility or ask someone else to take care of the children and ensure their needs. Thirdly, it is wildly known afternoon tea is an important component of the English way of life. But do you know the different classes have different routines: the working-class people usually have a “high tea” with hot dishes at about 5 pm. After a high tea, usually nothing more is taken for the evening except a hot drink and some biscuits. The middle-class people normally have an early “light tea” at about 4 or 5 pm. Then they have a main meal know as dinner at 7 or 8 in the evening. To me, all these are attracted to me and it is very funny to compare those to different countries, you also will gain a lot of fun from reading it.About American part I like Section Seven: Holidays. American holidays are an important element of American culture. There are many holidays in the US because different states and ethnic groups usually have different holidays. The holidays nationally-observed include Christmas, Thanksgiving Day, Labor Day, Independent Day, New Year’s Day, and so on. Other important holidays include Halloween, St. Valentine’s Day, Father’s Day, and Mother’s Day and so on. We may know some important holidays, but we may do not know why people hold it and in what ways people celebrate it and on that day people usually do what and so on. Now I want to introduce you something I interested in or I think it is important about several holidays. Christmas Day happens on December 25 historically to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, but we may not know American people may not celebrate or think of Jesus Christ; instead, they may celebrate or think about purely human good will and family togetherness. Onthat day people always say Merry Christmas to each other which is supposed to include warmth, love, hospitality and good will. New Year’s Day is also familiar to us. The celebration begins on New Year’s Eve. Lots of people like to hold big parties at private homes or go to restaurant or clubs, where they can eat big dinner, drink champagne and dance. The largest and most exciting celebration is held in Times Square, New York City, on New Year’s Eve. Since New Year’s Day marks the begging of the year, so some Americans promise to get rid of their bad habits and make efforts to lead a better life in the coming year. With the international communication becoming increasingly frequent, the holidays also be internationalized, so it benefits us a lot to learn some popular holidays held all over the world.As an English major, it is quite necessary for us to handle some knowledge about English speaking countries, such as poltics, culture and history. Because the purpose we learn English is to communicate with English speakers and apply it into our daily life or work. Then if we have extra knowledge besides the textbook, we can communicate with the people comfortably and also that will not offend the person you talked with. You never know what will happen the next minute, too. Maybe the knowledge you owned this moment will help you with wining a friendship or even a job. I know the books I read far away from I need absorbed. If time permits, I will read as much as I can and I will always remember it is never too old to learn.。
Reading Report 2ArticleFor some in China,the aim of travel is to create 15-second videosPerched on cliffs above ariver, Hongyadong is a stilt-house complex in mock-traditional style in the city of Chongqing. Its bars, restaurants and golden neon lights have been a popular draw since it was builtin 2006. Last year the number of visitors surged.The main reason, it seemed, was Hongyadong’s sudden popularity on a social-media app, Douyin, which is used for sharing photographs and 15-secondvideos.Uploading a picture or video from a photogenic spot to sites such as Douyin and Kuaishou is known in China as daka, meaning “punching the card”. The word is also used to refer to the practiceof registering your presence at a location that has already become hot, such as Hongyadong. The aim is not to produce a well-crafted video or beautiful photograph, but simply to show that you have also been to the places that are popular.A subculture has developed of young people who embrace dakaas a lifestyle. So-called daka zu—“daka tribes”— can be found roaming Chongqing and other cities, checking in at as many hot locations as possible within a single day.The daka craze may have practical origins. China’s youngurban professionals have little vacation time. So workers need to make the most of their limited leisure time. Douyin captures the mood with its slogan: “Make every second count.”ViewpointIn recent years, a word “daka”, which means“punching the card” has gone viral.Meanwhile, it contributes to the emergence of Internet popular cities.Every public holiday, these cities will break out a wave of "daka fever". But the aim of this travel is to create 15-second videos or share some photos to WeChat. In this case, I would like to say that the function of “daka” is complex.For these cities, on the one hand, the increase of tourists has brought about positive impacts such as the increase of city popularity and population aggregation, the increase of tertiary industry income such as cultural tourism, and the increase of temporary social jobs; on the other hand, the far overloaded passenger flow has led to poor tourism experience of the people, disorder of urban order, and adverse effects on the protection of ecological and cultural heritage, resulting in public security risks.For those who go to “daka”, on the goo d side, the city that wins praises must have its originality, so people can get a good sense of appreciation. At the same time, sharing the experience of travelling in that city with friends or even strangers can get more attention and improve their charm. On the bad side, the increase of tourist flow in the city will inevitably lead to crowding, and it is possible to see more people than scenery. Moreover, taking a quick look instead of having a excellent and peaceful tour can not make them really feel the beautiful city, but a task. This is no help to the improvement of self-cultural literacy.From my perspective,cities should make more comprehensive management, such as through crowd diversion, closed parks and other ways to ease the pressure of scenic spots. And tourists should also bemore immersed in the beautiful scenery rather than simply taking photos and videos to get attention. Only if everyone of us makes a contribution can we better promote the development of China's tourism.17190113Kaixin Zhu。
英美文学readingreport5篇第一篇:英美文学reading reportReading report on Pride and Prejudice(I)(Chapter1——Chapter12)The first sentence in this book impressed me.It says: “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife”.The meaning is very clear: the foundation of the marriage at that time is not emotion but possession.As far as I considered, people can’t divide people j ust by rich and poor.As a saying goes”all men are created equal.”Everyone is equal on every aspect.Also,one cannot distinguish good and bad just because the beautiful and ugly appearance.Pride and prejudice are our common weakness and shortcomings.Every person actually is easy to be driven by his own subjective impression.So it can comment easily to other people under incorrectness, then it will cause misunderstandings between each other.A person’s first impression can affect many things.But that is not to say the impression would never change, the deeper you get to understand someone, the more objective points you will have on him or her.Just like Elizabeth, after she read the letter from Darcy, she realized that she misunderstood him all the time.How foolish she was, she felt ashamed.Eventually, she changed her opinion towards him.On the other hand, Darcy noticed that if his pride existed, there will be no happy marriage between him and Elizabeth, he changed himself, and he was no longer pride and became gentle and attentive.As the saying goes, “Men cannot be judged by their looks.” Whether life or anything else, one cannot see its essence only from the appearance.Reading report on Pride and Prejudice(II)(Chapter13——Chapter24)A sentence in chapter 18 is interesting.Darcy told Elizabeth: “Mr.Wickham is blessed with such happy manners as may ensure his making friends— whether he may be equally capable of retaining them, is less certain.”The undertone is very clear: Mr.Wickham was not reliable.” And I think that Darcy was a little jealous.By the way, what he said seemed quite reasonable.Many things come easily, but also lose easily.Only when we know how hard-won the thing is will we cherish it.However people always treasure the ones that haven’t obtained, but forget the ones thathave already had.We won't be conscious of how important something is until the moment we lose it.Why do not we cherish all now have, as long as think about it, you'll know that your life is very good, love their families, teachers and classmates.In fact, our life is very simple.He who is in constant pursuit of happiness will never find it because happiness is not something tangible that one can easily grab but rather a state of mind.True happiness lies in contentment.Another sentence in chapter18 impressed me.Elizabeth said “It is particularly incumbent on those who never change their opinion, to be secure of judging properly at first.”I think this sentence is suitable for the kind of people who is stubborn.Just like me.Reading report on Pride and Prejudice(III) (Chapter25——Chapter36)In chapter31, there is a sentence which impressed me.Elizabeth said: “There is a stubbornness about me that never can bear to be frightened at the will of others.My courage always rises at every attempt to intimidate me.”It showed that Elizabeth had the special character, whichpeople did not have in the 18th century.It is often says, different personalities bring us different kinds of result.And as a general rule, pleasant and humble personality will definitely give better result.Fate changes if we change our personality.A simple example is Elizabeth.She struggled for her own happiness, which needs courage and persistence.And she was strong-minded and makes her own decisions.And this is the same with girls today.She exceeded her time with her thought.Generally speaking, one’s first impression can affect many things indeed, but it does not mean that the impression would never change.The deeper you get to understand someone, the more objective points you will have on him or her.As Elizabeth, after she read the letter from Darcy, she realized that she misunderstood him all the time.How foolish she was, she felt ashamed.Eventually, she changed her opinion towards him.On the other hand, Darcy noticed that if his pride existed, therewill be no happy marriage between him and Elizabeth, he changed himself, and he was no longer pride and became gentle and attentive.Reading report on Pride and Prejudice(IV) (Chapter37——Chapter48)There a sentence in chapter40 is impressive.It said:“ Mr.Darcy has not authorized me to make his communication public.On the contrary, every particular relative to his sister was meant to be kept as much as possible to myself”It showed that Darcy was a very helpful and kind-hearted man.And Elizabeth just was attracted by this kind of character.She is motivated by her feelings not by material things.As far as I considered, one cannot distinguish good and bad just because the beautiful and ugly appearance.Elizabeth hated Darcy because of Darcy's arrogance generating by wealth and Wicker’srumors.Without complete understanding, she prejudice against him.As the saying goes, ”Men cannot be judged by their looks." Whether study, life or anything else, one cannot see its essence only from the appearance.After reading the book, I could not help asking myself: Is it another fairy tale of another Cinderella? Could it be possible that a noble man like Darcy would marry a humble girl in reality? Could there be a man just as handsome, gentle and considerate as Mr.Darcy? I may easily tell it is rarely possible!However, literature can do us a great favor when our dreams can not realize.That is to say, when the need in reality can not be satisfied or the dream cannot be lived out, literature is another way of continuing our dreams.Reading report on Pride and Prejudice(V)(Chapter49——Chapter61)It’s a romantic love story indeed, but at the same time, the author didn’t confine her aim just to telling love stories.In fact, in most cases, the marriage in her book was not the result of love, but the result of economic needs.There a sentence in chapter 59 is interesting.Elizabeth told Jane: “It has beencoming on so gradually, that I hardly know when it began.But I believe I must date it from my first seeing his beautiful grounds at Pemberley.” This sentence obvious is ajoke.Because, when Elizabeth loathed Darcy, she had already known that he had a lot of property.Therefore, she changed her mind just because of the garden, which seems very funny.Money, love, appearance and so on are considered when involved with marriage.Elizabeth and Darcy consider more about morality than simply the financial factor as well as the appearance of each other.Therefore, even though there is still gap between theirsocial statuses, the marriage of them is sweet and happy.As far as I am concerned,girls are supposed to struggle for their own happiness, which needs courage and persistence.They ought to be strong-minded and make their own decisions.And this is the same with girls today.However, in modern society, although the marriages of economic needs have decreased rapidly, the concept of “money determines everything” is still rooted in some people’s mind.A lot of parents try hard to interfere their children’s cation background, possessions, jobs remains the main reason that may influence one’s marriage.Marry for money is still a big problem in our society. 第二篇:英美文学Analysis of Robinson Crusoe2009级师范三班刘静Robinson Crusoe is written by Defoe(1660 ~ 1731), known as the father of English novel and the periodical literature.He is the father of the English novel and periodical literature, who was born in a family which was against the Anglican Protestant.His father is a businessman, doing business.His article influenced the later development of journal articles and newspaper.Because the speech, he was repeatedly arrested.At the age of 59 Defoe began writing fiction as a novelist, show remarkable ability.Robinson Crusoe Robinson is Defoe's first novel, is also one of the most famous novels.It is based on a British seaman on a deserted island alone for 4 years in exile records and creation.Robinson is the heroine of Defoe works in accordance with their ideals and created the character, he killed out of doing business, living on a desert island for 28 years, overcome all sorts of unimaginable difficulties.He start empty-handed, develop the island, not only to their own survival, and create a new world.He was a pioneer in the image, a real assetclass hero.In this figure embodies the western ocean civilization tradition, with the outward development of curiosity, desire to conquer and spirit of adventure, praised the strength quality and working spirit.The novel opens English realistic novel road.In this novel, there are so many about the Wonderful part, but two points impress: one is the author of the narrative language easy to understand.In front of the book, the author use a lot of space to introduce Robinson in the sea to sea before, whether does not listen to parents' guide, but follow the guidance of the soul, the careful psychological description, the author description most incisive.Two is a fascinating story, the protagonist of nearly thirty years of life vividly in front of us, let our eyes as if emerging from a young life.Robinson Crusoe is to let a person look after all that the most primitive, most of my books, not only because it is the wonderful, and it gives us the modern enlightenment.The most qualities I learn from Robinson Crusoe is not his hard-working and brave, but his amazing mental capacity.One can imagine, a single large living alone on a desert island life ten years, no one to accompany him, even the most basic, and a person simply talk for a while to do.The deserted island there is no house, no rice, can only rely on his own hard to create a piece of heaven and earth.The first nonwhite character to be given a realistic, individualized, and humane portrayal in the English novel, Friday has a huge literary and cultural importance.Recent rewritings of the Crusoe story, like J.M.Coetzee’s Foe and Michel Tournier’s Friday, emphasize the sad consequences of Crusoe’s failure to understand Friday and suggest how the tale might be told very differently from the native’s perspective.Besides his importance to our culture, Friday is a key figure within the context of the novel.Friday’s sincere questions to Crusoe aboutthe devil, which Crusoe answers onlyindirectly and hesitantly, leave us wondering whether Crusoe’s knowledge of Christianity is superficial and sketchy in contrast to Friday’s fullunderstanding of his own god Benamuckee.In short, Friday’s exuberance and emotional directness often point out the wooden conventionality of Crusoe’s personality.Despite Friday’s subjugation, however, Crusoe appreciates Friday much more than he would a mere servant.Crusoe does not seem to value intimacy with humans much, but he does say that he loves Friday, which is aremarkable disclosure.Crusoe may bring Friday Christianity and clothing, but Friday brings Crusoe emotional warmth and a vital ity of spirit that Crusoe’s own European heart lacks.This novel shows that we need to believe ourselves, where there is a will, there is e our hands, then see a new world.What is more, we are not only live ourselves in the world, we need to care about others.Be brave, andnever lose hope.第三篇:英美文学《英美文学》复习方法一、找到《英美文学》的辅导书,例如《自考一本通》《自考直通车》等类型的汉语版辅导书。

Reading is an essential part of our lives. It not only broadens our knowledge but also enriches our inner world. Today, I would like to share my reading report with you.The book I chose for this report is "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee. This classic novel is set in the American South during the 1930s and revolves around the Finch family and their experiences with racism, injustice, and moral growth. The story is narrated by Scout Finch, a young girl, and through her eyes, we witness the harsh realities of life in the segregated society of Maycomb, Alabama.One of the most striking aspects of the book is its exploration of moral courage. Atticus Finch, Scout's father, is a lawyer who defends a black man, Tom Robinson, who is falsely accused of raping a white woman. Despite facing hostility and threats from the townspeople, Atticus remains steadfast in his belief in justice and equality. His unwavering moral courage serves as a powerful example for his children and the readers.Another theme that resonated with me is the loss of innocence. As Scout and her brother Jem navigate through the complexities of the adult world, they encounter prejudice, cruelty, and the harsh realities of life. This loss of innocence is a universal experience that many readers can relate to, and it serves as a poignant reminder of the injustice and inequality that exist in the world.Moreover, the character development in the novel is remarkable. Scout's growth from a naive, tomboyish girl to a more understanding and empathetic individual is beautifully portrayed. Her interactions with Boo Radley, a reclusive neighbor, and the lessons she learns from Atticus and Calpurnia, the family's housekeeper, contribute to her emotional and moral development.In addition, the writing style of Harper Lee is captivating. The vivid descriptions of the Southern landscape, the authentic dialogue, and the evocative storytelling make thenovel a compelling read. The author's ability to convey complex themes and emotions through the eyes of a young girl is truly remarkable.In conclusion, "To Kill a Mockingbird" is a thought-provoking and timeless masterpiece that continues to resonate with readers of all ages. Its exploration of moral courage, loss of innocence, and character development makes it a profound and impactful work of literature. I highly recommend this book to anyone who values powerful storytelling and profound insights into the human experience.In summary, "To Kill a Mockingbird" is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that continues to resonate with readers. Its exploration of moral courage, loss of innocence, and character development makes it a profound and impactful work of literature. I highly recommend this book to anyone who values powerful storytelling and profound insights into the human experience.In conclusion, "To Kill a Mockingbird" is a timeless classic that offers valuable lessons about morality, empathy, and the human experience. I believe that everyone can benefit from reading this remarkable novel.。
怎样写读书报告一、读书报告有没有一定的格式对初学写读书报告的同学来说,老师会介绍一般的格式给他们,让他们有所遵循。
只要有书名、有作者,其它可集中读后感来写。
最花费笔墨的是内容概要,其作用是让别人知道你看过这本书。
至于写读后感的方式却是多种多样,没有任何规范。
可以写成很抒情的散文,很尖锐的评论,很精辟的分析,很周详的比较……要看书的性质,也要看你感想的性质。
二、写读书报告的第一步写读书报告的第一步是一面看书一面写,不论有什么感想,疑问和见解,都随即把它们写下来。
如果书是自己的,可以直接写在书上;如果书不是自己的,就要准备一本读书札记簿,写在本子上。
书看完了,把自己写下来的那些感受浏览一次,就会发现几个重要可以发挥的。
把这几个重点列出来,有时间的话,把书有选择地再看一遍,以便你想论述的重点,找寻更多的资料或例证。
有需要时,还可以再找其它有关的书籍来补充你的论点。
这样,你阅读的收获会丰富得多,你写的读书报告也会有分量得多。
三、不要只读一本书要把一本书的读书报告写好,除了对这本书要有较透彻的了解之外,还要对作者、对作者所处的时代,对这本书写作的背景有所了解。
如果有条件的话,最好能同时找到其它有关的书来看,包括:1、作者的传记;2、作者其它作品;3、别人对这本书的研究;4、其它作者的回顾或有关著作(如巴金的《回想录》与杨绛的《干校十记》等)。
当然不是每一个人都有条件或需要这样做,但能够这样做,写出来的读书报告一定扎实得多,丰厚得多。
四、赞扬与批评初学写读书报告,大多拜倒在作品之前,大大夸奖一番。
可是赞扬与批评都需要见地,公式化的赞美之词:内容丰富,描写细腻,刻画入微,感人肺腑,文章清丽……全是废话。
赞要赞到作品的节骨眼上,最好是这本书独有的、最突出的优点。
批评当然比赞扬更难,因为写读书报告的人学养往往逊于作者,要能指出一本书的缺点,而又能言之成理,使人信服,实在并非易事。
但不容易并不表示不可以这样做,如果做得到,这篇读书报告会更容易受到欣赏。
Reading ReportFor Extensive Reading CourseNumber:1111902421Term:2012-2013 2Name:徐欢Date: 2013.5.13My feelings of The Scarlet LetterEveryone was talking about the thing that Mistress Prynne was standing a space of three hours on the platform of the pillory,Mistress Prynne must wear a mark of shame upon her bosom.Meanwhile,a young clergyman called Mr. Dimmesdale,he is very nervous,it gives us a hint.When I read this sentence"It is too deeply branded.ye cannot take it off.And wound that I might endure his agony as well as mine."I know the young clergyman is the little girl's father,Dimmesdale has no enough brave to speak out the secret and Prynne decides to take all the responsiblilities.We all know that Chillingworth actually was Prynne's husband,but he asked Prynne never to tell anyone.Chillingworth cannot encounter the dishonour that besmirches the husband of a faithless woman.They do not love each other at all.Chillingworth asked Prynne not to tell anyone the secret especially the man who Prynne loved.The main characters of the novel that the author figures elaborately all have special functions.Hester,the heroine of the novel,is an intelligent,strong-willed and kind-hearted young woman.Dimmesdale,an admirable and respectful minister of the town people,functions mainly as a contrast to Hester.They have contradiction.Actually I think Prynne could free to return to her birth place with her daughter,but she chooses to live there,the Puritan settlement,we can regard that she loves the man ,and do not want to leave there.The years pass and Hester's daughter Pearl grows into an impetuous little girl.Hester has moved with Pearl into a small cottage on the outskirts of town and makes her living by embroidering and sewing clothing for the townspeople.On the other hand,this punishment gives Hester a special position to observe and think about the society.She tries her best to help the poor.However,her lover,who lacked courage to confess his sin publicly, gradually ruined his health.At the same time,Chillingworth disguised himself as a doctor and stayed in Dimmesdale’s home.Actually Chillingworth has suspected Dimmesdale to Hester's lover.He tries to make friends with Dimmesdale and let him tell the secret. He finally discovers a wound on Dimmesdale's chest,he sures that Dimmesdale isHester's lover.Chillingworth's character changes noticeably. He becomes a demon-like presence in Dimmesdale's life.Dimmesdale get more and more people respect.At the same time,Dimmesdale's health declined quickly.He suffered the pain on the spirit.Hester notices this change in Chillingworth and confronts him.and that Chillingworth intends to make Dimmesdale's life a living hell. Hester understands the gravity of the situation and decides to tell Dimmesdale who Chillingworth really is. Hester decides that, for the sake of Dimmesdale's sanity, she must warn him about Chillingworth's character,her husband.Hester meets Dimmesdale and reveal the secret and beg him to forgive himself.They finally decides to escape the Europe together.However the wish was destroyed by Chillingworth.Dimmesdale declares his secrets in the public,he tells everyone that he is Pearl's father and he is Hester's lover.Everyone in the town was shocked and the minster fell onto the scaffold and died after telling the secret.Everyone was shocked because Dimmesdale is a respectful minster.After the excitement, the people of the town have differing ideas of how what they saw on Dimmesdale's . They saw the scarlet letter "imprinted in the flesh." Some thought Dimmesdale had inflicted the torture upon himself, some felt that Chillingworth had caused it to appear with the aid of his magic and herbs. Still others felt "that the awful symbol was the effect of the ever-active tooth of remorse, gnawing from the inmost heart outwardly, and at last manifesting Heaven's dreadful judgment by the visible presence of the letter."After his death,Chillingworth died soon because he left with no object in his ter,Hester and Pearl disappeared.This made the story of scarlet letter grow into a legend.Many years later,Hester suddenly returned to the town alone and resumed her charity work.Until the time of her death,she still wore the scarlet letter on her breast.Whereas,it was no longer the symbol of shame but the symbol of able and angle. She receives lavish gifts and letters with armorial seals from far-away places, possibly from a lover. Hester loves Pearl and it is also the evidence of that shame.Hester buys lots of beautiful clothes and dressed her as a pearl.She wants Pearl to reach everyone's acknowledge.She gives her daughter the best fundamental situation.However,she was afraid to see her daughter's eyes,because it reminds herthat she has violated the law.She was also afraid to let her daughter embark on her own way.To some extend,she was very contradictive.Originally Hester is brave and enthusiastic,but she gradually becomes silent.Hester rarely communicates with others,she becomes silent amd calm.She never denys his crimes from the very beginning to the end.She always remains to be silent and she knows others exclude her and her daughter.Dimmesdale fall in hot love with Hester,although he chooses to flinch,he did not get comfort other than get pain in his spirit.On the contrary,the pain get more and more intense,While Dimmesdale doesn't dare to confess it publicly,it makes him feel guilty and suffer endless physical and spiritual torment,death is the only thing that can relieve him.Through the different fates of Hester and Dimmesdale,we can see the central idea that the author wants to present to us,namely ,the relationship between sin and humanity.Chillingworth is the negative figure and the most malevolent role in the novel. His revenge and desire to hurt others stands in a great contrast to Hester and Dimmesdale's love.Any harm that may come from the young lovers' deed is inadvertant,while Chillingworth intends to hurt them.In my opinion,The title of a book The Scarlet Letter ,has a profound meaning.Originally,it intends to mark Hester as an adulterer,it is a symbol of shame.But at the end of the story,it becomes a powerful social identity of Hester.She changed the meaning of the scarlet letter in people's mind through her own effort: accepting the assigned identity and reconfrigurating it with quiet perseverance and inner strength.It tells us that ,when we face humiliation or difficulty,what attitude we take is very important.To accept it or to escape it,that is the question.Only by facing it directly and dealing with it bravely,can we beat and overcome it.In this process,we would gradually develop a mature mind and an independent charater.So,rather than say that the scarlet letter is a shame to Hester,it is better to say that the scarlet letter shapes Hester and makes her a real woman.No one knows for sure where Pearl has gone, though Hester is seen sewing an opulent baby's gown definitely not meant for a Puritan household. Hester died after years and"a new grave was delved, near an old and sunken one, in that burial-ground beside which King'sChapel has since been built. It was near that old and sunken grave, yet with a space between, as if the dust of the two sleepers had no right to mingle. Yet one tombstone served for both."The tombstone reads: "On a Field, Sable, the Letter A, Gules." Sable is black, Gules is the traditional name for red in heraldry.。
