Book report of A Farewell to the ArmsA farewell to the arms told us a story about love and war. During the war between Italy and Austria, the hero Henry offered to join the army and became an ambulance driver. Several months later, he came across the heroine, Catherine. For that time, Henry only wanted to have her, but did not love her at all. However, Catherine was a serious and cautious girl. She would not do that even if it is a kiss. Later, Henry left Catherine for the front. Then he got wounded. When he was receiving treatment at hospital, Catherine gave him considerate care and it was then that Henry fell in love with Catherine. However, good time was always easy to loose. Henry recovered and went back to the war. Catherine has already been pregnant. Things did not go very well. The war was extremely complicated. Henry was suspicious of betrayer of the war, so the policemen wanted to arrest and kill him. Henry succeeded in escaping and headed for Catherine. With the help of their friends, both of them arrived at a safe place. They lived a wonderful life. But, when Catherine had the delivery, she and their baby were both dead. Henry’s mind was empty and sad. Everything had gone.Upon this novel, Hemingway described an excellent character of Catherine. A girl who was brave enough to serve at the front, wise enough to control herself, loyal enough to wait for her beloved one and optimistic enough to go through all the obstacles.The reason why she was at the front was for her former lover. In spite of the danger and difficulties, she waited for him. From here, we can see Catherine was pretty brave and adamant. She was willing to sacrifice herself for her Mr. Right.The first time Catherine met with Henry, she was kind of fond of him even though Henry did not take it seriously. Catherine controlled herself and did not have relationship with Henry. At this [point, she was wise and cautious. They were good qualities for girls at that time. Few girls can do this during war time.What’s more, as for a woman who perhaps had a baby by herself, it took great courage. But Catherine never felt afraid because of her love of Henry. She herself overcame many difficulties. What the girl behaved was different from girls in that period of time. She was an excellent girl.At that very day of her delivery, there must have been unthinkable pain. Most people would cry and shout loudly. While, Catherine, this larruping girl, was quite optimistic. She did not need the solace of Henry. On the contrary, she comforted Henry not to be nervous. The willpower of Catherine was strong enough to support her and she also wanted to use her willpower to console Henry.When she was at death’s door, she said that,” please, promise me, you won’t be with other women! ”Catherine suddenly said,”oh, what am I saying? I don’t want that. I want you to be happy. I want you to be with other women.” The words seemed antinomy, while, in fact, they delivered the same meaning. Catherine deeply fell in love with Henry. The love was difficult to describe with words.It was the villainous war destroyed the happiness and love! It was a great tragedy.W ords:Chilly 寒冷的squeeze压榨definitely明确地newsletter实事通讯liar说谎者Sentences:1.The river was very clean. Y ou could see through to the stones at the bottom.

ThebookreportofT...第一篇:The book report of The Great Gatsbay1《了不起的盖茨比》英文读书报告The book report of The Great GatsbayBy F.Scott.FizgeraldThe Great Gatsbay is written by American author F.Scott.Fizgerald, who is considered a member of the “lost generation” of the Twenties.It was first published on 1925.The following is the main plot of the novel.A young man named Nick Caraway, who came to New York City in string of 1922.He became involved in the life of his neighbour at Long Island, jay Gatsbay revealed to Nick, that he fell in love with his cousin Daisy before the war.At that time, he is poor.However, Daisy married Tom Buchanan, a rich but boring man of good social position.But Gatsby was still in love with her.In Gatsby's opinion, daisy was a beautiful and charming that he had never seen.But I think she was also fickle, shallow, hypocritical.She was love with money, easy, and material luxury because she seemed to love Gatsby, but just appearance.Although I know the real Daisy, Gatsby did not know her clearly.This is the main reason why Gatsby could not get what he wanted.Becoming wealthy is the most important for rge fortune was from distributing illegal alcohol and trading in stolen securities.After getting money, Gatsby got luxurious possessions.“And a marble swimming pool, and more than forty acres of lawn and garden, it was Gatsby mansion.” Besides,Gatsby went to Oxford University to get further study in order to make him more elegant and noble.He changed since his New Haven years.Now he was a study straw-haired man of thirty with a rather hard mouth and a supercilious manner.Two shiningarrogant eyes has established dominance over his face and gave him the appearance of always learning aggressively forward.Not even the effeminate swank of his riding clothes could hide the enormous power of that body-he seemed to fill those glistening boots until he strained the top lacing, and you could see a great pack of muck shifting when his shoulder moved under his thin coat.It was a body capable of enormous beverage-“ a cruel body” in Nick's eyes.Gatsby held sumptuous parties every weekend at his mansion.The party is almost unbelievably luxurious.He made friends who have outstanding fame and high position.Due to natural instincts-vanity, Daisy began to sob helplessly;;I did love him true, but I loved you too." when Gatsby tried to convince her to leave Tom.Gatsby lost Daisy because he had no money, but he still loved her.It was the blinding love that killed him.Daisy, driving Gatsby's car, hit and killed T om's mistress, Myrtle Wilson, Gather knew the truth, but he kept silent to protect her.Afterwards, Tom told Myrtle's husband that it was Gatsby killed his wife.Then Wilson murdered Gatsby and committed suicide.After Gatsby''s dying, almost no people including those who usually attended his parties came to his funeral.Nick was left to arrange Gatsby's funeral, attended only Gatsby's father and the former guests.The woman who ever allowed Gatsby to take the blame for killing Myrtle rather than attend his funeral moved away with her husband finally, leaving no contact address.Gatsby is the typical American youth in the twenties.He regarded Daisy as the symbol of the youth, money and status deeply.He thought innocently: he can receive the last love, his dream after having money.It was a pity.He had misunderstood the girl he loved and the boring society on the surface.So he would never made his dream come true.But, he tried his best.第二篇:了不起的盖茨比读书报告“The American Dream”reflected in The Great GatsbyThe Great Gatsby is a novel by the American author F.Scott Fitzgerald.The first time I finished reading it, I treated it as a love tragic story.Gatsby’s love for Daisy was so deep that he loved her for so many years and finally died because of her.However, it is a pity that Daisy was a fickle, shallow girl who only loved money, ease and material luxuty.I feel sorry for Gatsby’s love for a unworthy girl.In fact, the novel involves a much larger and less romantic scope.I came to realize it after knowing more about F.Scott Fitzgerald’s works and the background of the story.The Great Gatsby actually symbolized the disillusion of the American Dream.It shows a vivid picture of the 1920’s with its surface prosperity a nd underlying sadness.The 1920’s is a decade when Americans worship money and ease of life instead of the original American Dream that dreaming of a better, richer and happier life for all citizens of every rank.The tragedy of Gatsby is an example of the failure of the American Dream.It can be analyzed from people’s pursuit of money, status and love.Money was of great importance during that period of time.It can be found from every aspect of people’s life.Firstly, money was a necessity for love and marriage.Gatsby was penniless when Daisy fell in love with him.They could not get married without money.Thus, Gatsby left to make money for his love.However, Daisy didn’t wait for him but married Tom, an arrogant, hypocritical man who had no moral qualms but money.From it we can see that Daisy chose money, not love.Secondly, people can do anything for money.For example, in order to make money, Gatsby chose to smuggle alcohol and do other criminal activities.These activities were of high risks, but Gatsby was willing to do them for money.Thirdly,money was more important than family kinship.At the funeral of Gatsby, his father didn’t show much sorrow for his son’s death, but were more proud of his son’s wealth.In his eye’s, money was more important than his son.Finally, money could make a normal person a celebrity.At the beginning of the novel, the author spent a lot of ink to describe the gorgeous mansion Gatsby lived, the luxurious car he owned, and the grand parties he held.These things made Gatsby popular in the town and these things all came from money.From above it can be concluded that money was the very pursuit of people in that period of time.Status was also a very important thing people try to pursue.Firstly, it can be reflected from Gatsby’s love for Daisy.Why did Gatsby loved Daisy but not other girls? This was because to Gatsby, Daisy represented the paragon of perfection—she has the aura of charm, wealth, sophistication, grace, and aristocracy that he longed for as a child in North Dakota.All her characters were endowed by her status.Secondly, in the novel, the town was divided into East Egg and West Egg.People like Daisy and Tom lived on the East Egg presented American aristocracy(families with old wealth), and people like Gatsby lived in the West Egg presented newly rich industrialists and speculators.Fitzgerald portrays the newly rich as being vulgar, gaudy, ostentatious, and lacking in social graces and taste.Gatsby, for example, lives in a monstrously ornate mansion, wears a pink suit, drives a Rolls-Royce, and does not pick up on subtle social signals, such as the insincerity of the Sloanes’ invitation to lunch.In contrast, the old aristocracy possesses grace, taste, subtlety, and elegance, epitomized by the Buchanans’ tasteful home and the flowing white dresses of Daisy and Jordan Baker.Thus, it can be concluded that the newly rich admired thearistocracy’s status.Gatsby’s pursuit for Daisy also reflected the American Dream.Daisy was beautiful, charmingand grace, but she was also shallow, bored and sardonic.In reality, therefore, Daisy falls far short of Gatsby’s ideals.Daisy proves her real nature when she chooses Tom over Gatsby in Chapter VII, then allows Gatsby to take the blame for killing Myrtle Wilson even though she herself was driving the car.Finally, rather than attend Gatsby’s funeral, Daisy and Tom move away, leaving no forwarding address.With the pursuits corrupted, Gatsby's American dream is inevitably doomed.Gatsby died in line with the disillusionment of the American Dream.Furthermore,Gatsby is merely a typical representative of the thousands of Americans in 1920s.Through the archetypal story of Gatsby, Fitzgerald tells us that the distorted and perverted American dream in 1920s is doomed a disillusionment. 第三篇:了不起的盖茨比读书报告2104070593 2010级王丹Book ReportThis semester, I read a book which is named The Great Gatsby.The Great Gatsby was published in 1922 by F.Scott Fitzgerald.At first glance, the novel appears to be a simple love story, but further examination reveals Fitzgerald's masterful scrutiny of American society during the 1920s and the corruption of the American dream.The author is F.Scott Fitzgerald.Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was born on September 24, 1896, and named after his ancestor Francis Scott Key, the author of The Star-Spangled Banner.Fitzgerald was raised in St.Paul, Minnesota.Though an intelligent child, he did poorly in school and was sent to a New Jersey boarding school in 1911.Despite being a mediocre student there, he managed to enroll atPrinceton in 1913.Academic troubles and apathy plagued him throughout his time at college, and he never graduated, instead enlisting in the army in 1917, as World War I neared its end.Fitzgerald was the most famous chronicler of 1920s America, an era that he dubbed “the Jazz Age.” Writt en in 1925, The Great Gatsby is one of the greatest literary documents of this period, in which the American economy soared, bringing unprecedented levels of prosperity to the nation.Prohibition, the ban on the sale and consumption of alcohol mandated by the Eighteenth Amendment to theConstitution(1919), made millionaires out of bootleggers, and an underground culture of revelry sprang up.He published the novel Tender is the Night, Paradise, The Last Giant and so on.Published over 160 short novels, for example Benjamin's Fantasy Trip, Ice Palace, Winter Dream, Sensible.Back to Babylon and so on.In the 81st Oscar Awards ceremony got three Oscar-winning films Benjamin Button is based on his short novel Benjamin's Fantasy Trip adaptation.The twentieth century, the United States academic community selected 100 the best novels in the river of English literature.The Great Gatsby and Tender is the Night are the list.And The Great Gatsby is second.The Great Gatsby shows us a vivid picture of the 1920s with its superficial prosperity and underlying sadness.The failure of American dream and the crisis of value are well reflected in characters and the details of the novel.In The Great Gatsby,Fitzgerald skillfully employed the contrastive techniques in terms of scenes,characters as well as dream and reality.These techniques not only deepen the tragic theme, but also imparted the text a brand-new interpretation and profound artistic glamour.The novel is told us the story of Gatsby by Nick’ tone.Nick is tired ofhis hometow n’ life and came to New York.Rent a small house in the suburb of West Egg.He is Daisy's cousin.The Gatsby is his neighbor, living in luxurious Gatsby mansion.He and Daisy love each other when Gatsby was young.But because of his poor family they were broken up.Then he joined the First World War.While Daisy married torich Kids T om.Five years later, Daisy and her family move to the West from Chicago.Nick started have close contacts with them.Gatsby accumulated great wealth throughillegal means in the five years.Follow Daisy came to New York.Opposite Daisyhome he bought the villa-Gatsby Mansion.In order to attract married Daisy to meet.He held a large part at the villa every weekend.Vain hope to arouse the lost lovebetween them.An occasional opportunity let Gatsby knew that Nick is Daisy's cousin.Asked him arrange a meeting with Daisy.Then they often make date.He gradually found Daisy's vanity, vulgar and selfish.Gatsby's pink dream finally has been broken, but he still insisted it.Still retain any illusion about Daisy, and even lead to histragedies.One day Daisy was in a drunken driving Gatsby's car ran over and caused an accident that killed Tom's mistress.And plan a plot with Tom and cruel to put the blame on Gatsby.Resulting in the victim's husband suddenly burst into the house and shot Gatsby.The murderer eventually also killed himself.And Daisy and Tom were traveling to Europe.Only Gatsby's poor father and Nick attend at the funeral.The story ends up with the Gatsby become victim for selfish and cruel of Daisy.The story begins in 1920s –was named by “jazz” and “money” era.The novel use Nick’ tones tell thestory.Happened as if is Nick’ experience.It is use a unique literary vision and new performance style profoundly revealed the burst reason about American Dream at Jazz and Money Age.After war The US economic prosperity age, the life style trends to money worship are expressed most vividly.But it was under the cover of the selfishness and indifference of human nature.The reason why are Gatsby great because he was sincere and persistent waiting for and pursuing his love at heart.When the social is popular that people indulging pleasure and pride luxury.However, in material-driven environment, whether it is Gatsby, Daisy or Tom.They pursuit, devotion and transfer for love are close linked to money and status.The Great Gatsby is ranked second in the Modern Library’s list of the 100 best novels of the 20th century.But everyone has the different criteria on good books.One point of good books is, I think, when you eat it the taste is what you need.The good books tell you clearly something that lurks in your brain dimly.So you will feel very good if you resonate with the character in books.Another point of good books is, after you have eaten it the taste is so good that you want to eat it again.The good book is amusing and thought inspiring.The Great Gatsby also has a lot of puns and symbolisms.Finally, I hope everyone can be himself.Don’t lose your spirit.As far as I amconcerned even though you love someone, you should not accommodate yourself to him or her too much.Just be yourself.Only if he or her love you sincerely can you have a happy life in the future.第四篇:了不起的盖茨比读书报告A Book Report of The Great GatsbyBy Li LiF.Scott Fitzgerald.The Great : Penguin Books Ltd, 2007187 Pages.Fiction.The Great Gatsby is told us a tragic story in which how Gatsby tries his best for his dreams of love and life but finally he also fails in face of the reality by Nick’s tone.Background InformationThe Great Gatsby is the most famous masterpiece of Fitzgerald’s.It’s also the master piece of American realism fiction in the early period of the 20th century.This work was written in 1925 by Fitzgerald.This period is called jazz age, it’s also the most exuberant period of the a uthor’s creativity.In this period, World War I has already ended up(1918)before Great Depression(1929)arrived.The traditional Puritan ethics crumbled and hedonism began to be popular.With Fitzgerald’s words, ‘this is a miracle of the era, an era of art, a miserly time, but also is a era full of taunt’.Fitzgerald called the age as the jazz age, so he is called ‘the poet laureate’ in this jazz age.As he himself also enjoyed this era warmly, he keenly felt this era for the romantic desire, the surface of the luxury of emptiness and behind is helpless, and in his works these emotions were reflect ed heartily.In his works, the delicate affection quarrel of the young people who are in and out of the golf course, country club and luxurious residence of the high society is an eternal theme, and the leading roles’ frustration and disappointment by money dispelling are everywhere.The Great Gatsby describes a story to represent the desire of the young and idealism.It involves the mercurial feelings including confusion and loss all the time.Fitzgerald thinks it’s the fate of the people’s fate in that era.Plot SummaryEvaluationThe Cause of Miriam’s Tragedy:1.Social cause2.The isolated living environment3.The influence of religion4.Paul and the interference of Mrs.Morel第五篇:了不起的盖茨比英文读书报告[小编推荐]Book Report of The Great GatsbyThe introduction about the author:Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald(September 24, 1896 – December 21, 1940)was an American author of novels and short stories, whose works are the paradigm writings of the Jazz Age, a term he coined himself.He is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.Fitzgerald is considered a member of the “Lost Generation” of the 1920s.He finished four novels: This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, Tender Is the Night, and the most famous one is The Great Gatsby.Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that treat themes of youth and promise along with despair and age.The Great Gatsby was first published in 1925, and it has been republished in 1945 and 1953.There are two settings for the novel.The first setting is on Long Island's North Shore and the second major setting is in New York City.The book is set within the year 1922 from the spring to the autumn.Summary of this book: Nick Carraway, a Midwesterner who had graduated from Yale, moved to New York in the summer of 1922 to learn about the bond business.He rented a house in the West Egg district of Long Island, a group who had made their fortunes too recently to have established social connections and who were prone to garish displays of wealth.Nick’s next-door neighbor in West Egg was a mysterious man named Jay Gatsby, who lived in a gigantic Gothicmansion and threw extravagant parties every Saturday night.Nick was unlike the other inhabitants of West Egg—he was educated at Yale and had social connections in East Egg, a fashionable area of Long Island home to the established upper class.Nick drove out to East Egg one eveningfor dinner with his cousin, Daisy Buchanan, and her husband, Tom, an erstwhile classmate of Nick’s at Yale.Daisy and Tom introduced Nick to Jordan Baker, a beautiful, cynical young woman with whom Nick began a romantic relationship.Nick also leart a bit about Daisy and Tom’s marriage: Jordan told him that Tom had a lover, Myrtle Wilson, who lived in the valley of ashes, a gray industrial dumping ground between West Egg and New York City.Not long after this revelation, Nick travelled to New York City with Tom and Myrtle.At a vulgar, gaudy party in the apartment that Tom kept for the affair, Myrtle began to taunt Tom about Daisy, and Tom responded by breaking her nose.As the summer progressed, Nick eventually garnered an invitation to one of Gatsby’s legendary parties.He encountered Jordan Baker at the party, and they met Gatsby himself, a surprisingly young man who had a remarkable smile and called everyone “old sport.” Gatsby asked to speak to Jordan alone, and through Jordan, Nick later leart more about his mysterious neighbor.Gatsby told Jordan that he knew Daisy in Louisville in 1917 and was deeply in love with her.He spent many nights staring at the green light at the end of her dock, across the bay from his mansion.Gatsby’s extravagant lifestyle and wild parties were simply an attempt to impress Daisy.Gatsby now wanted Nick to arrange a reunion between himself and Daisy, but he was afraid that Daisy would refuse to see him if she knew that he still loved her.Nick invited Daisy to have tea at his house, withouttelling her that Gatsby would also be there.After an initially awkward reunion, Gatsby and Daisy reestablished their connection.They begin an affair.After a short time, Tom grew increasingly suspicious of his wife’s relationship with Gatsby.At a luncheon at the Buchanans’ house, Gatsby stared at Daisy with such undisguised passion that Tom realized Gatsby is in love with her.Though Tom involved in an extramarital affair, he was deeply outraged by the thought that his wife could be unfaithful tohim.He forced the group to drive into New York City, where he confronted Gatsby in a suite at the Plaza Hotel.Tom asserted that he and Daisy had a history that Gatsby could never understand, and he announced to his wife that Gatsby was a criminal—his fortune came from bootlegging alcohol and other illegal activities.Daisy realized that her allegiance was to T om, and Tom contemptuously sent her back to East Egg with Gatsby, attempting to prove that Gatsby could not hurt him.When Nick, Jordan, and Tom drove through the valley of ashes, however, they discovered that Gatsby’s car h ad struck and killed Myrtle, Tom’s lover.They rushed back to Long Island, where Nick leart from Gatsby that Daisy was driving the car when it struck Myrtle, but that Gatsby intended to take the blame.The next day, Tom told Myrtle’s husband, George, that Ga tsby was the driver of the car.George, who had leapt to the conclusion that the driver of the car that killed Myrtle must have had been her lover, found Gatsby in the pool at his mansion and shoots him dead.He then fatally shot himself.Nick staged a small funeral for Gatsby, ended his relationship with Jordan, and moved back to the Midwest to escape the disgust he felt for the people surrounding Gatsby’s life and for the emptiness and moral decay of life among thewealthy on the East Coast.Nick reflected th at just as Gatsby’s dream of Daisy was corrupted by money and dishonesty, the American dream of happiness and individualism had disintegrated into the mere pursuit of wealth.Though Gatsby’s power to transform his dreams into reality made him “great,” Nick reflected that the era of dreaming—both Gatsby’s dream and the American dream—was over.。
Book Report : The Diary of a NobodyThe greatness of George and Weedon Grossmith's masterpiece of comic irony ,The Diary of a Nobody ,was first published in 1892.It presents the details of English suburban life through the protagonist Charles Pooter' diary. The small-minded but essentially decent suburban world he inhabits was both ordinary and interesting, or to be precise, he found interesting things from the ordinary life and that is why I enjoy this book. The author makes me understand the true meaning of life —— life is never short of beauty, but an eye of notice.It is said that Victorian literature, in general, truthfully represents the reality and spirit of the age. The high-spirited vitality, the down to earth earnestness, the good-matured humor and unbounded imagination are all unprecedented. I think this book The Diary of a Nobody which was published in Victorian times is just a good example.The "nobody" of the title is a city clerk Mr.Pooter who, inflated with pomposity well above his top hat, decided to record the daily routine of his family and friends for posterity. His diary began one week after he and his wife Carrie moved into their new house. Though it consists of mundane mishaps and misunderstandings and looks disorganized, we still can find the thread of the story through the whole reading. I make some collations: Settling Down in New Home (daily life, making new friends, attending the ball, working and interpersonal relationship), The Arrival Home of his Son Lupin ( worring about son's job, Lupin finding a job, Lupin's secret engagement, Lupin getting a new job), Promotion and an Increase in Salary (his devotion to his company, reward of getting a house). After all the ups and downs of the life of a nobody, all's well that ends well, as Mr.Pooter writes in the last capture of the diary ——One of the happiest days of my life. In that capture, Mr. Perkupp, his boss, said: "Mr. Pooter, I will purchase the freehold of that house, and present it to the most honest and most worthy man it has ever been my lot to meet." Mr.Pooter’s life's goal is to become a gentleman, and I think, of course, he finally reached, not in vain.Pooter is house-proud, scrupulous in duty, alive to social niceties and given to the occasional punning witticism. The last trait I think is the most outstanding and absorbing. Pooter makes the occasional joke--usually unappreciated byothers. A time or two Pooter laughs so hard at his own merriment, for example, he once made a joke which he thought was one of the best jokes he has ever made. He said "Gowing's always coming and Cumming's always going" ( Gowing and Cumming are his friends).This is the word play, a kind of "English Sense of Humor". Humor has infiltrated every aspect of English people's life, so two overwhelming themes in English comedy are word play and self-depreciation, and the word play in this book is everywhere. In addition, the humor of this book endures because there are so many people like Mr.Pooter in this world.The another reason why I like this book and Mr. Pooter so much is that he is really a nobody like us and he also has shortcomings, but what’s the most important, he makes no disguise of his embarrassment and is so unpretentious. Here is a dialogue from Mr. Pooter’s diary:—"Hulloh, Pooter, why your trousers are too short!" (Gowing, who, with his usual taste, greeted Pooter .)—"Very likely, and you will find my temper 'SHORT' also."( Mr.Pooter simply said. )—"That won't make your trousers longer, Juggins. You should get your missus to put a flounce on them."Maybe many people wonder that it is a waste of time to enter other’s insulting observations in their own diaries. On the contrary, I think this is where Mr.Pooter is lovely.Though Pooter likes making some innocuous jokes, his thought sometimes is full of philosophy, which is presented in the following statement ——"half the pleasures of life were derived from the little struggles and small privations that one had to endure at the beginning of one's married life. Such struggles were generally occasioned by want of means, and often helped to make loving couples stand together all the firmer." The power of expressing one's thoughts with simplicity and lucidness like this is also of much importance in our daily life. Viewing from this aspect, Mr. Pooter had his own opinion and treatment about marital status. Though he was a staid old man, sometimes he was romantic and knew how to please his wife. One time, fearing disagreeables at home after the "tiff" that morning, he sent a telegram to Carrie (his wife), telling her he was going out to dine and she was not to sit up. Then he bought a littlesilver bangle for Carrie. Next day, Carrie was very pleased with the bangle, which he left with an affectionate note on her dressing-table before going to bed. I was moved and touched deeply when I read this. I believe a common love like them, and I am looking for. Several days ago I with two friends watched “If You Are the OneⅡ”at the cinema, one of the lines in it that “Marriage consists in a wrong choice and a long marriage persists in it” was thought-provoking, I think.Besides, what impresses me includes many interesting games they played at that time, such as "Whist with a dummy", "Dominoes", "Consequences", "Cutlets", "Muggings", "Game of marbles", "Monkeys" and so on. These games add luster to boring life, which proves the humor sense of Englishmen again and the realism of the book. While I was reading this book, I was always thinking the fact that the more advanced society and technology, the less time we spend with our families and friends. People always take it for granted that they can go back to hometown through the developed transportation network whenever they want, but they finally find that the days they stay with families are too few to be counted. On the other hand, friends are easy to approach but sometimes we spend more time surfing internet than chatting and playing simple games with friends. In a word, I admire the life of Mr. Pooter and his friends.I like Mr. Pooter's motto —— "Home, Sweet Home", just as he said "What's the good of a home, if you are never in it ? " Yes, that is true. I think this motto must reflect the author's opinion, and probably the sweet home is exactly the source of creation.Qian Zhongshu once enjoyed this book and recommended it highly, because he pursued a kind of tranquil life, which echos with this book's theme ——the art to being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things. I guess maybe his book Fortress Beseiged was influenced by this book's humor. If you want to experience the happiness of a nobody and come into contact with British humor, the book of The Diary of a Nobody will be a good choice.。

给爸爸写一封大一经历的英语作文80词全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1Dear Daddy,I can't believe I'm already done with my first year of college! It feels like just yesterday I was packing up my room and you were helping me move into the dorms. This whole experience has been such a whirlwind of new things. I've learned and grown so much, and I wanted to tell you all about it.Move-in day was crazy! There were cars and boxes everywhere, and my little dorm room looked so tiny with all my stuff crammed into it. My roommate Lily seems really nice though. She's from the city and has bright blue hair. We've gotten along great so far. We decorated our room with twinkly lights and put up loads of pictures to make it feel cozy.In the first few weeks, I was so nervous about everything - finding my classes, meeting new people, keeping up with all the work. But I quickly settled into a routine. My classes are fascinating but a lot more work than high school. I have sooo much reading to do for each one. Writing papers is hard too,since the expectations are much higher than writing a book report back home. I have to analyze everything so deeply.The dining halls are decent, but I miss your cooking so much, Dad! The food is pretty boring and repetitive. I've been trying to cook for myself sometimes in the little shared kitchen, but it's not the same as your gourmet meals. I've lost a little weight from all the walking between classes too. This campus is huuuge!I've joined a couple clubs to make friends and take study breaks. My favorite is the Art Club where we work on all kinds of cool projects - painting, pottery, you name it. I've made some good friends there who are really talented artists. We go to all the campus art shows and exhibits together. I also joined an intramural soccer team which is a blast, even though I'm not very good. At least I get some exercise!On the weekends, we've explored the town surrounding campus a bunch. There are cute local coffee shops, bookstores, and thrift shops that we love browsing through. A few timeswe've taken buses into the bigger city nearby for day trips to the museums, parks, and restaurants there. One weekend a bunch of us went to an outdoor concert on campus which was so much fun!Now that the weather is warm again, the campus is absolutely beautiful. Everything is in bloom and the trees look like fluffy green clouds. I love exploring the shady paths and finding hidden gardens or courtyards to relax in between classes. On sunny days, you can find me sprawled out on a grassy quad, soaking up some rays while I do my reading.I can't wait for you and Mom to come visit for Parents' Weekend in the fall! I'm going to give you the full tour of everywhere I go - my favorite study spots, hangouts, you'll see it all. We can go into the city together too. I'm counting down the days!Well, I could ramble forever about all my college adventures, but I'd better wrap this up now. Thanks again for all your support and for helping make this possible, Dad. I've learned so much, both in the classroom and just about life in general. I've become more independent and grown so much as a person. I'll be home before you know it, but in the meantime, I'm soaking up every moment here. Can't wait to tell you more!Love you tons,Your College Kid篇2Dear Dad,I hope this letter finds you in good health. I wanted to tell you about my experiences in my first year of college. It has been an amazing journey full of new experiences and challenges.Firstly, I have made so many new friends from different parts of the world. We have had lots of fun together, exploring the campus, studying, and hanging out. We even formed a study group to help each other with our assignments.The courses are quite challenging, but I have been working hard and getting good grades. I particularly enjoy my science and literature classes. The professors are really helpful and make learning interesting. I also joined a club called "Young Innovators," where we work on projects and come up with creative ideas.Living away from home has been a big change for me. I have learned how to manage my time effectively and take care of myself. Cooking meals and doing laundry were a bit challenging at first, but I have become more independent and responsible.Apart from academics, I have also participated in extracurricular activities.

Love the lives we liveRecently, I read a novel written by Jack London, Love of life, which is one of the most representative novels of him. The novel was mainly narrated that in the mid of the 19th century, many people all left their works to discover treasure in Virginia, and in the gold rush, many people were almost become a millionaire overnight, but there was still some people was not rich, they even experienced some terrible stories. There were two gold-diggers in this novel, and they went to pan for gold in a hopeful mentality, but at last, they all gave up their gold only for the living. The man, bill, gave up his friend and chose to seek the road to go back with a bag full of gold, but the reason was that his friend found his broken body. When they lived with hungry, cold and hopelessness in the wilderness, they made a decision what was giving up gold. Later, we can see the man fight against the difficulties such as natural, bear and wild wolf. Finally, he was saved by some members of a scientific expedition on the whale-ship BEDFORD.After I read the novel, I was moved, also got something useful and significant. At first, nothing was more important than our lives for us when we faced difficulties. Also, from the novel, I knew, we should learn how to control our desire not to follow Bill’s road, brought much gold but lost his life. Secondly, we should be filled with confidence and courage all the time, and learnt how to settle the problems when we faced critical situations. No matter when or what happened in our life, we should keep the hope, because only if we do like this, we can be live like the survival in the novel. Finally, learn to stick to. If there were only the slightest chance to live, we should have stuck it in our hands. Only in this way, we can be successes. And I want to mention the sentences in the novel’s beginning. “This out of all will remain; they have lived and have tossed: So much of the game will be gain, though the gold of the dice has been lost.”As college students, it's common that we all worried about our daily routine. We spent our lives with much pain, with tears, with complaints. We pursue one more thing to do. But we have never cared about no food to eat one day, also we never careabout no house to live in one day. But we were complaining about our real life all the time. Maybe all of us live with pressure from our life like the gold digger, but how should we face the pressure, pursue and achieve our dreams in a sane attitude? I got the answer from the man’s experience, it was that we all need sturdy relives need face loneliness happily and need learn to accept or reject. And I think all of us were panning gold in our lives, so that we will experience lots of difficulties in the road, at the same time, we need to learn to live with and overcome difficulties. So I want to say, after reading this novel, I hope all of us can be satisfied with our reality life and Love our lives, this is the valuable enlightenment brought by the novel love of life.567。
Book Report of Sons and LoversWhen I read Sons and Lovers, I feel so amiable and reminiscent. Because some of the extracts in this major novel bring me back to my childhood. As for me, childhood just like a colorful dream, full of curiosity and fantasy; childhood also like the seasoning packet that remind me the sense of the joys and sorrows of life.I believe most of the people will remember the carefree primary school time when be mentioned their childhood. When I read the description about the environment of Hell Row: "Hell Row was a block of thatched, bulging cottages thar stood by the brookside on Greenhill Lane...And the cottages of theses coal-farms and homes,straying over the parish, formed the village of Bestwood." Through I grow up in the city, and do not know exactly how the countryside look like.Yet in my memory, there is a scenic spot near my primary school similar to the description of Hell Row. At that time, this place became our paradise, because little boys and girls always played games there when they finished school. The alleys between the cottages was long and interlaced, so we often played hide-and-seek together. We did not go home until our parents got off their work and took us home. However, the broad road and modern houses replaced this "paradise" when I in grade four. Looking at the bulldozers crashed the cottages and the ruins, I shed my tears and felt very sad, because I lost my paradise forever. Sometimes the beautiful scenery of my paradise would come out in my dream, the cottages, the deep alleys, the old trees and wild flowers, the lovely dogs and cats, and you-- my little friends.... All this precious memories will deeply hide in my heart.When I read the content about the quarrel take place on Arthur, Billy Pillins, , Paul, Alice, Emmie Limb and Eddie Dakin this six children. The writer write:" the six would fight, hate with a fury of hatred, and flee home in terror." I think everyone have the similar experiment that quarrel with our friends or siblings when we were young. No matter how bitter the quarrel is, they would be friends with each other again at last.I remember when I was a little girl, I quarrelled with my best friend who called JiangYan . The reason why we quarrel is that she pushed me and I broken her favorite cup when we play game at her home. She cried and asked me to pay for it, but I refuse her and complain about her fault. And then we did not talk to each other any more. Several days later, we realized we were wrong, we apologized to each other. I bought a new cup for her, and she also sent me a nice dolls. After that the games went on again.... After Jiang Yan moved to the new house, I also move to the new house, then we lost tach to each other. But still miss her, my dear friend. I hope that I will meet you again in somewhere.Although some beautiful things disappear from our life, we should keep your face always to the sunshine and the sadness will fall behind you. Although time and distance separate us, we still remember the purest friendship and blessing. Although childhood is far away from me, but the precious memories would remain my heart forever!ReferenceD. H. Lawrence. Sons and Lovers. Yilin Press, 1996。

book report英语模板I recently finished reading a fascinating book, and I felt compelled to share my thoughts on it. The book, titled "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald, is a classic piece of American literature that explores themes of wealth, love, and the pursuit of the American Dream. It tells the story of Jay Gatsby, a wealthy and mysterious man who throws lavish parties in hopes of winning back the love of his life, Daisy Buchanan.最近我读完了一本令人着迷的书,我感到有必要分享一下我的想法。
这本书的题目是《了不起的盖茨比》,作者是F·斯科特·菲茨杰拉德,是一部探讨财富、爱情和追求美国梦主题的经典美国文学作品。
它讲述了杰·盖茨比这个富有而神秘的男人,他举办盛大的派对,希望能够重新赢回他心爱的女人黛西·布坎南的心。
One of the aspects of "The Great Gatsby" that I found most intriguing was its exploration of the idea of the American Dream. Gatsby is a character who embodies the belief that with enough wealth and determination, one can achieve anything they desire.However, as the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Gatsby's pursuit of the American Dream ultimately leads to his downfall.《了不起的盖茨比》中让我最感兴趣的一个方面是它对美国梦这一概念的探讨。
Book Report of Dear Life陈明慧英二03140216Dear Life is a short story collection by Canadian writer Alice Munro,published in 2012 by McClelland and Stewart.Dear life consists of 14 short stories,most of the stories in the book had previously been published elsewhere.Amundsen,Corrie,Dear life,Gravel,Haven and Leaving Maverly were all originally published in The New Yorker.Dolly was first published in Tin House.The author Alice Munro born in July 10th 1931,is a Canadian author writing in English.Munro is the recipient of many literary accolades,including the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature for her work as“master of the contemporary short story”,and the 2009 Man Booker International Prize for her lifetime body of work.Munro’s work has been described as having revolutionized the architecture of short stories,especially in its tendency to move forward and backward in time.Her stories have been said to “embed more than announce,reveal more than parade”.The book Dear Life also won the 2012 Trillium Book Award,which is an annual book prize sponsored by the Government of Ontario,Canada.Dear Life collected 14 short stories,the 14 stories can be divided into two parts.The first 10 stories are fictions,but the last 4 stories are not fully fictions.They form an separate unit.The last 4 stories have autobiographical in feeling,although sometimes they do not completely narrate the facts.Munro said that Dear Life was her last work and the last 4 stories showed what she wanted to say the first,the last and the most closest things about her life.The stories in Dear Life all happened in small towns located in Ontario,the time period was set between 1940s and 1960s.The characters in each story are the most ordinary people.Every life in those stories started off ordinary,but they soon became bored of it,they fought,they struggled,they wanted to change,and it came to a point that they woke up to realize that what they have done was unnecessary.Maybe it sparkled, but all the efforts they made were just vanished passion.And most importantly the plot in Munro’s stories is secondary,events seldom happens,the basis of those stories is accurate and delicate details,which would bring you moments of insight during the reading.Pride gave me the deepest impression among those 14 stories.I think it is the most Munro’s story.The stories happened shortly after World War II.The main male character had cleft lip and a little bit stutter,the main female character is a innocent woman who used to live a extremely rich life.The whole story is about how they got familiar with each other and their relationship.By the end,the woman wanted their relationship to become closer,but the man thought she was too good for him.The last scene was the woman planned to go to vacation,went to help the man move,they was looking at cute skunks run across the backyard under the warm sunshine.The last line is “we were as glad as we could be”.I like all the things that happened in this story,small town’s anonymous individuals lived neither sad nor happy lives, for some inexplicable reasons they didn’t seize the chance to make achange.It was not that they didn’t want to change,they just struggled at the wrong time.Alice Munro’s small town describes typically Canadian, by no means bucolic or cultivated. Instead, these towns are just ordinary—plain, flat, and non-stimulating, but there is never a lack of stories. The town life she depicts is also like this—it follows an ordinary track, so common that it seldom offers surprises, but when it does, it makes you wonder just for a while before life goes on.True, many enjoy this town life, but many would not tolerate its monotony. Life loses its color when it becomes too predictable. A peaceful pond needs to be startled at times, otherwise it will soon turn into a dead end.They try to create something new,but by the end they will always realize that life is so beautiful when it is ordinary.I like the characters in Munro’s life and their stories,because I can see my own shadow in it.Particularly I like how Munro developed the plots,when it hit me and gave me an unexpected result,it made me think about what is life really about.My conclusion is that life is ordinary,no life forms can be not ordinary,the most interesting part of life is to fight with it and enjoy the process,that would make your life meaningful.So dear,go back to enjoy your life.。
