Book report of reading <Animal farm> <Animal farm> is one of the representative works of George Orwell. It is a successful anti Utopian work, which alludes to politics with simple and understandable language. George Orwell's creation of animal farm is not accidental, but closely related to his personal experience. Born in the British colony of India, George Orwell was full of sympathy for the oppressed people since his childhood. After witnessing the dark political disputes, he thoroughly saw the current situation of Spain under the rule of the Soviet Union. It was full of autocracy and persecution covered by the surface of democracy and progress. Therefore, he hopes to alert the world through his works. <Animal farm> was born in this period. ‘The creatures looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which is which. ‘For many years, the animals living in the farm had a dull life. They couldn't stand the days when they were enslaved by human beings and finally launched an uprising. They drove away the farm owner and became the owner of the manor themselves. At first, all the activities in the farm were in order. Under the leadership of Napoleon and Snowball (pigs), all the animals obeyed the rules and worked diligently. But Napoleon, who symbolizes a politician who always pursues power but loses its original intention, designed to get rid of snowball in order to gain power. From then on, everything changed completely. The life of animals began to be harder than in the past. Huge amounts of work worn them out and they can only barely get enough to eat. In order to consolidate his rule, Napoleon launched a campaign of cleansing and killed a numberof animals who tried to resist. In order to improve productivity, he let animals build windmills several times but never produce any food by his own labour. Napoleon has satisfied his ambition, but the animal farm no longer belonged to the animals. In the end, Napoleon and human were both sitting on the table playing cards. The author's sentence "pigs and men, can’t tell which is which" is really meaningful and worth thinking.Animals think that as long as they get rid of Jones, they can not only win freedom and equality but also live to their content. However, the real situation is that they have become the tools of Napoleon's dictatorship, and there is no freedom and equality at all. This is the same as human society.Every kind of animal in animal farm represents specific people, some are politicians pursuing fame and wealth, some are calm and objective wise men, some are hard-working models, some are talkative speakers. The author seemingly wrote about animals with different personalities but used them to reflect people in real society.Readers may have different understanding about this story. I highly recommend this book for its undoubtedly a classic novel. Although this is a seemingly simple story about the uprising of a group of animals, from the story of animals, we can see the human social phenomenon reflected in the story. Maybe we are similar in many places, whether animal or human.。
动物庄园英语的作文"Animal farm" is a British writer George Orwell's works, the content of this book is very interesting, but seemingly camouflage in the fairy tale story, mapping connotation is actually very profound and thought-provoking, so we need to carefully taste.The story is very simple, tells the story of a farm animal from human host oppression, resistance in the two pigs named Snowball and Napoleon led off farm animals, to achieve a "in power" desire. But soon the revolutionary pigs broke up, and one of the leaders of the snowball was declared by Napoleon as the enemy of the revolution. Napoleon, the leader of the pig, has gained more and more power to become the new privileged class. The slight discontent of the animals would lead to bloody cleansing, and Napoleon would eventually become a farmer like exploiter, and the animals would return to their former misery.The animals in the farm symbolize different roles and classes. A male horse boxer but diligent and capable of ignorance, although feel contradictory thoughts andbehaviors of pigs, but could not clear, the more hard work to his paralysis, symbolizes the desire for equality with the grass-roots democracy; herd is the ignorance of the masses, blindly deny everything for Napoleon, Napoleon said is correct; the donkey Benjamin represents the thinking of intellectuals, it is still oppressed that farm, just exploiters into Napoleon from farmers, the doings of Napoleon skeptical wise but themselves, so life is still low-key, cautious. And hens, cats, and so on. They all represent different classes.In this revolution, farm animals are poor. They are like people on the bottom of society. They don't have lofty ideals or ambitions to create a better future. They just want to improve their lives. Pigs tell animals to build windmills to improve their lives, but in the end they can't even live up to their standard of living. The reason is that the fruits of labour are more exploited, because animals think that what they do is for themselves. The boxer shouted, "I'll work harder." I threw myself into my labor until I ran out of my life and sold it to the slaughterhouse. The exploitation of animals by animals is more deceptive than the exploitation of animals, deception undermines theresistance of animals, and the prohibition of singing the song of the livestock of England is also aimed at eliminating the resistance of animals. Without resistance, authoritarian rule becomes easy and long. The so-called "freedom" has become a thorough joke, they are only in the plight of silent struggle. As Zhang Yanghao - "shanpoyang - Tongguan huaigu" said: "Xing, people suffering; death, suffering people."Orwell tells people with an allegory: "a post revolutionary regime, if there is no democratic supervision, there is no rule of law, must be alienated, it must go to his opposite.". The revolution always begins with anti despotism, as the old and young school says when it comes to animals: "the root of all evil lies in the absolute rule of man."". In fact, democracy requires no high quality, no need for knowledge, just a sense of responsibility. Only the people are really aware that they need it, and true democracy will come true.。
Animal Farm is a novel written by George Orwell in 1945.On the surface it is only a fairy tale,but actually the novel has a profound background,it is based on the historical events from the Russian October Revolution in 1917 to Stalin era,and every character is representing a real man in the Soviet Union.Thus the novel is regarded as a criticism on the politics and has been banned for many years.The story began with Old Major’s meeting.He was an old pig but also the spiritual leader of the farm,he said to all the animals that human was parasites who always oppressed them and therefore they should revolt,all animals were excited about these.After Old Major’s death,two young pigs,Snowball and Napoleon,became the new leaders,finally drove the owner,Mr Jones,away from the farm and changed it name to “Animal Farm”,made Seven Commandments.Since then animals here had a happy life,but it didn’t last long,soon afterwards,Snowball was declared to be the enemy of the farm and was expelled.So,Napoleon became the only leader,he began to purge the farm with his dogs,kill the animals who spoke ill of him,and no privilege he had promised before became reality.Animals remained thinking that they have a better life than the time of Mr.Jones,but in fact nothing has changed except the ruler.Years pass,pigs walked upright and wore clothes,they had no differences between human and even held a dinner party with them to celebrate abolition of revolutionary traditions.Everything went back to before.After reading the whole story,I think of the famous saying,”Power corrupts,absolute power corrupts absolutely.”Napoleon indeed had some political talent and he actually did good to the farm at the beginning,but once he got in thecenter of power,the weakness in his personality has been magnified and became more evident.In order to control the farm on his own,he used a merciless trick to chase his fellow,Snowball,away.After Napoleon became the dictator of the farm,he wanted to have a better enjoyment,so he broke all the commandments and exploited the laboring animals crueler.while doing these,he let his follower,Squealer, to tell the animals what the pigs do are beneficial to the farm.The most tragical character in the story is the horse,Boxer.He included all the good qualities in laboring class:strong,loyal,dedicated and devoted his whole life into the construction of the farm.But when he badly hurt because of overwork,Napoleon sold him for money to buy himself whiskey.The plot makes me feel despairing,a most devoted,long-suffering worker became the victim of the dictator’s material desire.Therefore,we could see that the bottom of society is so poor,these harmless people even become the opposite to the ruling class,as Mr. Pilkington said in the last chapter,”If you have your lower animals to contend with,we have our lower class.”In the end,the pigs who used to be the leader of the revolution,is as same as their enemy in the past,human,and maybe a new round of revolution will begin.。
动物农场读后感AnimalFarm(合集5篇)第一篇:动物农场读后感 Animal FarmThoughts after Reading Animal FarmIt’s really a good luck to have the opportunity to read the well-known novel Animal Farm by the introduction of my English teacher Wang Ling and surfing the Internet.Although I only learned chapter two in my English book, I generally understood what the story wanted to tell us.Animal Farm is a political allegory fable.The story happened on a farm somewhere in England.In the beginning, the oldest pig Old Major called on the animals to rebel against their master Mr.Jones who maltreated them.During the revolution, the animals drove away Mr.Jones.The pigs, which acted as leaders, promised freedom and equality for all animals.But the most powerful pig Napoleon began to exercise a harsh rule, eliminating history and fooling the animals.In this way the pigs enjoyed privileges of the ruling class and suppressed and exploited other animals through various cunning means, which was sheer totalitarianism, while freedom and equality were nowhere to be found.When it comes to politics, I have got to refer to Chinese Communist Party and our government and our homeland, China.There is no doubt that our party liberated the Chinese from feudalism and imperialism.There is no doubt that our party left us away from war.There is no doubt that our party led the Chinese living in a rich way.But I still want to say something exist in our country in order to make my homeland much more democratic and trustworthy.Recently, we heard many reports about “the event of Wang”, most of these reports were untrue, which led us feel puzzled.At this time, the government spokesman told us all the reports about this event were not thereality.In my opinion, it was really a joke.Because from the spokesman, we could conclude that he knew the truth.Why didn’t you tell us the truth now that you knew all? Some officials said that we Chinese enjoyed making up rumour, I thought the government also had th e responsibility.Because we didn’t know truth, we had to guess.Two weeks ago, when I chatted with some friends in QQ group, I asked, “What do you think of Bo’s leaving of Chongqing?” Some suggested me not discuss politics.Then I asked “Why?” One of them sa id that I had to be careful because your QQ number might be closed forever when discussed politics.One guy said to me, “You are still too young.” which made me think a lot.As a university student, I think it is our responsibility and duty to concern our country and our politics.Now, we should fear talking about politics!That’s all the thought after I read Animal Farm.What I think of is to make our country much more democratic and much our government much more trustworthy.It seems I still too young daring write this kind of article.Frankly, I hope my beautiful, dear and respectful teacher not hand in this piece of paper to school. 第二篇:动物农场读后感《动物农场》读书报告姓名:班级: 学号:联系方式:一、作者简介:乔治·奥威尔(1903年6月25日-1950年1月21日),英国著名小说家、记者和社会评论家。

动物庄园(Animal Farm)简介:Since its publication in 1946, George Orwell's fable of a workers' revolution gone wrong has rivaled Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea as the Shortest Serious Novel It's OK to Write a Book Report About. (The latter is three pages longer and less fun to read.) Fueled by Orwell's intense disillusionment with Soviet Communism, Animal Farm is a nearly perfect piece of writing, both an engaging story and an allegory that actually works. When the downtrodden beasts of Manor Farm oust their drunken human master and take over management of the land, all are awash in collectivist zeal. Everyone willingly works overtime, productivity soars, and for one brief, glorious season, every belly is full. The animals' Seven Commandment credo is painted in big white letters on the barn. All animals are equal. No animal shall drink alcohol, wear clothes, sleep in a bed, or kill a fellow four-footed creature. Those that go upon four legs or wings are friends and the two-legged are, by definition, the enemy. Too soon, however, the pigs, who have styled themselves leaders by virtue of their intelligence, succumb to the temptations of privilege and power. "We pigs are brainworkers. The whole management and organisation of the farm depend on us. Day and night, we are watching over your welfare. It is for your sake that we drink that milk and eat those apples." While this swinish brotherhood sells out the revolution, cynically editing the Seven Commandments to excuse their violence and greed, the common animals are once again left hungry and exhausted, no better off than in the days when humans ran the farm. Satire Animal Farm may be, but it's a stony reader who remains unmoved when the stalwart workhorse, Boxer, having given his all to his comrades, is sold to the glue factory to buy booze for the pigs. Orwell's view of Communism is bleak indeed, but given the history of the Russian people since 1917, his pessimism has an air of prophecy.《动物庄园》(Animal Farm)亦译作《动物农场》、《动物农庄》。
阅读动物农场有感英语作文Animal Farm: A Reflection on Power, Corruption, and Revolution。
George Orwell's "Animal Farm" is a masterpiece that delves deep into the human condition, exploring themes of power, corruption, and the cyclical nature of revolution. Through the allegorical depiction of animals taking over a farm and establishing their own governance, Orwell provides a sharp critique of totalitarian regimes and the dangers of unchecked power. The story serves as a warning against the manipulation of ideals for personal gain and the erosion of democratic values.The novel begins with the animals of Manor Farm overthrowing their oppressive human master, Mr. Jones. Led by the pigs, notably Snowball and Napoleon, the animals establish a set of commandments based on principles of equality and fraternity. Initially, the farm prospers under the new leadership, and it appears as though the animalshave achieved the utopia they envisioned.However, as time progresses, the pigs, especially Napoleon, begin to consolidate power and betray the very principles they once advocated for. Through cunning propaganda and the rewriting of history, Napoleon manipulates the other animals, slowly transforming the farm into a dictatorship under his rule. The once democratic and egalitarian society devolves into a hierarchy where the pigs reign supreme, exploiting the other animals for their own benefit.Orwell's portrayal of the pigs' ascent to power mirrors the rise of totalitarian regimes throughout history. The corruption and moral decay that ensue serve as a cautionary tale, illustrating the dangers of apathy and the importance of vigilance in preserving democracy. The manipulation of language and the distortion of truth by the pigs highlight the ease with which authoritarian leaders can deceive and control a populace, stifling dissent and fostering aculture of fear.Moreover, "Animal Farm" underscores the inevitability of revolutions being co-opted by those hungry for power. The pigs' betrayal of their fellow animals and the establishment of a tyrannical regime expose thevulnerability of revolutions to corruption from within. Orwell suggests that without constant scrutiny and a commitment to democratic principles, revolutions can easily devolve into new forms of oppression, perpetuating a cycle of tyranny and injustice.The character of Boxer, the loyal and hardworking cart-horse, symbolizes the exploited proletariat who are deceived by those in power. Despite his unwavering dedication to the farm and the pigs' cause, Boxer is ultimately betrayed and sent to his death when he becomes too old to work. His tragic fate serves as a poignant reminder of the disposable nature of individuals in totalitarian societies, where human life is valued solely for its utility.In conclusion, "Animal Farm" is a powerful critique of the pitfalls of revolution and the corrupting influence ofpower. Orwell's insightful allegory resonates with readers across generations, challenging us to remain vigilant against the erosion of democratic values and the manipulation of truth by those in authority. The novel serves as a stark reminder of the fragility of freedom and the constant struggle required to preserve it. As Orwell aptly puts it, "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."。
B o o k R e p o r t o f A n i m a l F a r m动物庄园读后感集团标准化小组:[VVOPPT-JOPP28-JPPTL98-LOPPNN]B o o k R e p o r t o f A n i m a l F a r mAnimal farm is the first book I choose to read among the list of BBC Top 100 Novels. The book has aroused strong reaction and became famous since the date it was published. It reveals human reality by telling animals’ story in funny but extremely ironic way.The story begins with a meeting held in one night by the animals in farm. Because of the great dissatisfaction of their owner, animals decide to have a revolution, chasing away the farmers and realize the equality among animals. They make definitions about “friends” and “enemy”, elect the leader- an old pig, who died soon after the meeting and is taken place by two other pigs named “Snowball” and “Napoleon”, and enacted Seven Commandments. The days at the beginning are harmonious. But soon there’s a split between two leaders- Snowball is declared enemy of the revolution. What’s worse, leader pigs abuse their powers and gain benefits for themselves, becoming exploiters as human.It seems ridiculous for animals to have a revolution and for pigs to govern the farm. But when we put it into human’s society, the story makes sense. In fact it reflects on the revolution happened in Soviet in 20th century. Animalism is similar to Socialism, which emphasizes equality a lot, but actually inequality at all. Extreme equality is tend to get into an embarrassing situation like “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” Napoleon isalso the reflection of Soviet’s leader Si Dalin, who was famous for his arbitrariness and toughness in the history and expelled Trotsky (Snowball reflects on Trotsky).The revolution of animals is based on being treated unfairly by human. Because their enthusiasm and hatred, they success at the beginning. However, they do not know how to remain a steady regime. The key of keeping a regime is to set restrictions to the power. In other words, to legislate. The responsibility and rights of both government and citizens should be showed obviously in the law.Another opinion I have learnt from the book is that, we ought to be tough when tracing our goals. And we shouldn’t give up to our desires. In the book, in the end pigs become something very like human who they were against at first. And in reality, if we don’t keep a clear mind to control our desires and remember what kind of people we want to be, we will be lost and become people that we usedto hate.To make a conclusion, George Orwell makes the reveal of politics and humanity in a vivid and simple story, from which readers think much about the history and society.。
What if Boxer betrayed Napoleon
Animal Farm is a novel written by George Orwell , published in England on 17 August 1945. This is always regarded as an allegorical and dystopian novel which satires the revolution of Soviet Union. Orwell used vivid words to describe the revolution and development is the animal farm.
The animals had strong dissatisfaction with the famers, so under the lead of pigs, through the revolution, they drove the original owner Jones away. The pigs Napoleon and Snowball became the core leadership. They reformed the farm's name as Animal farm, and lead mechanism in order to prove that "All animals in this farm are equal" which is the core of "Seven Commandments of Animalism". At first they did happy and peaceful, however, the peaceful days didn't last long. As the contradiction between Napoleon and Snowball becomes sharper and sharper, animals couldn't find their animalism back. The police which was against humankind is now changed. animals' lives become harder. But as the result of their blind worship of Napoleon, they could' t think deeply. In the end, the animal farm becomes another kind of "Manor farm".
What if Boxer betrayed Napoleon
The horse Boxer plays an important role in the story. He is not only a loyal horse, but also an ignorant and blind horse. He followed his leader without any doubt. His mottoes are "I will work harder" and "Napoleon is always right", He is the most hard working and loyal one is animal farm, even until his retirement, he still works as youth. He never gets any payment as his leader promised. At the end, he died and his leader secretly sold him to butchery for money. As we can see, Boxer represents of the invisible labor who are
being carried out by powerful person. Boxer has dedication, loyalty and a huge capacity for labor, but it lacks of intelligence , so it becomes easy control. But one day when it recognize that it shouldn't have been treated in this cruel way, does Boxer betray Napoleon's rule? Boxer won't crave the attention of human beings and loves being groomed and pampered as Mollie did. His betrayal will makes chaos in the farm for he is the most important labor. However as I image, Boxer makes rebellion but eventually the next leader is not he, and other wise and ambitious animals will come from the corner to pursue this leader position, as like what happened in Qin dynasty. This kind of betrayal is of which Napoleon 's afraid, so he always brainwash his followers and at last even reemploy Moses to spreads stories of Sugarcandy Mountain.。
