The Great GatsbyI Introduction of AuthorThe Great Gatsby is written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, who was born in 1896 and died in 1940. His first novel Earthly Paradise made a hit and he rose to fame. He published the several novels such as Tender is the Night, Paradise, The Last Giant etc. and over 160 short stories, including Benjamin's Fantasy Trip, Ice Palace, Winter Dream, Sensible and Back to Babylon. On the 81st Oscar A wards ceremony, the film Benjamin Button got three awards, which was adapted from his short story Benjamin's Fantasy Trip.Tender is the Night and The Great Gatsby are listed in the Top 100 novels of 20 century by the United States Academic Community. And the latter even ranks the second. In 1940 at the age of 44 he died of frustration. After his death, some of his interesting writings were put together into a collection entitled The Crack-Up. The Great Gatsby is considered Fitzgerald’s masterpiece. However in 1925 no one predicted the eminence of the novel in the new century—not even Fitzgerald himself. The story of The Great Gatsby is a good illustration.II Introduction of PlotThe novel was told the story of Gatsby by the narrator Nick. Nick is tired of his hometown’ life so that he moves to New Y ork from the Midwest of America. He rents a small house in the suburb that happens tobe next to the Gatsby’s mansion. Five years ago, Gatsby falls in love with a wealthy girl named Daisy, but he is too poor to marry her. When the First World War broke out, Gatsby had to devote himself to the army. Then Daisy is married to a rich young man Tom Buchanan. Determined to win back his lost love, Gatsby has engaged himself in bootlegging and other “shady” activities to make a fortune for the past five years. He buy a mansion just opposite to the Daisy’s house with a river lying in between. Gatsby holds dazzling parties every weekend hoping one day the married Daisy will come. With the help of Nick, the cousin of Daisy, Gatsby meet the Daisy again since five years ago. But now the lady in front of him is no longer what she used to be. She has become a vain, selfish and vulgar woman. Although he knows it, he still clings to the illusion about Daisy. One day, Daisy drives Gatsby’s car after drinking and causes an accident that kills Tom’s mistress. Daisy plots with Tom to shift the blame on Gatsby. Finally Gatsby was shot by the victim’s husband. Only Gatsby's poor father and Nick attend the funeral. Daisy and Tom were on trip to Europe at that time.III Personal InspirationAfter reading, I always wonder why the Gatsby is “great”. In the view of most people, they must take for that Gatsby is silly for his blind love. He just lives in his memory and his imaginary world, which results in his tragedy. And I do think so. But when I come to realization that 1920s wasnamed after “Jazz”and “Money”era, I change my mind. In such a material-driven society, all people are indulged in pleasure and luxury while Gatsby is persistent to pursue his sincere love for Daisy. That’s maybe the reason why he is great.One scene in the book that impresses me most is Gatsby stand by the window, staring at the green light hung at the clock of Daisy’s house under the moonlight. The green light is a symbolism which stands for the dream and hope in Gatsby’s heart. However, the green light is distant and dim which indicates that the dream is bound to be smashed eventually. Gatsby’s self-made experience is so-called “American Dream”. But unfortunately, the dream broke up at last. It’s not the tragedy of individual but of the whole society, the fickle world full of material desire.As far as I’m concerned, the author titling the Gatsby “Great”is to arouse the conscience of the whole society to pursue sincerity rather than the money. Money is a good thing, but not everything. If you are fervent about it, money will finally ruin the most valuable things in your life.IV Classical sentences or paragraphs*We continue struggling forward on the counter-current and was continually pushed back until the return to the past years* Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter -- tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.* God knows what you've been doing, everything you've been doing. You may fool me, but you can't fool God!* He knew women early, and since they spoiled him he became contemptuous of them, of young virgins because they were ignorant, of the others because they were hysterical about things which in his overwhelming self-absorption he took for granted.* Her voice is full of money.* I believe that on the first night I went to Gatsby's house I was one of the few guests who had actually been invited. People were not invited -- they went there.* ...personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures.* Reserving judgements is a matter of infinite hope.* The rich get richer and the poor get -- children.* There is no confusion like the confusion of a simple mind...。

《了不起的`盖茨比》英语读后感1I dont know how long I havent read the original English book.I finally finished reading the Great Gatsby at the end of 20xx. So write down a little personal feeling of reading.In this book, the author narrates the story in the first person voice and tells Gatsbys short life story. He used a "marvelous" modifier, which is a more life-style name. From the perspective of English, "the great" is very well used.Its a great experience to transform from a poor household of unknown origin into a rich man. But the luxury of material in his eyes, are not as important as Daisy. Party constantly, the reception of people who do not know, experience everything, just to be close to her. Mingming is very close to each other, but it seems very far away.Gatsby is a nostalgic person. He thinks that he can go back to the past five years later and live a happy life with Daisys old mirror. However, he overestimates Daisys love for himself. He thinks that she can be happy only when she is with him. In fact, she loves him, but she loves herself more. Gatsby thought that Daisy was too perfect, too idealistic, for fear that she would receive little harm, just like all the people in love, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, and all the shortcomings are advantages. Gatsby, it seems, did not see any shortcomings, only perfect, completely immersed in his own imagination, unable to extricate himself. Love is consistent to this point, so great love, ordinary people cant do it!Daisy is lucky to be betrayed by her husband Tom, full of insecurity and emptiness. Gatsbys appearance, only for her one person, loves her so deeply, in her luxurious tedious life, ignited the spark. However, meeting Gatsby again is more stimulated by Gatsbys rich and luxurious life. Suppose that Gatsby reappears in her life as a poor person, whether she would like to see him more or have more intersections. She is used to the life of a lady, but also the ideological snobbery, the concept of the rich formed from childhood. Although Gatsby is rich, she seems to be an upstart after all. She cant stand afew words of Toms instigation, and the hereditary rich family is more popular with her. Even if Tom betrayed her, she still chose to live with him and dare not step out of the original life circle.When seeing the palm extended by gates to the Daisys house on the other side, when seeing Gatsby as nervous and excited as a child because Daisy is going to Nicks house for afternoon tea, when Gatsby let Daisy say she doesnt love Tom in New York, Daisys indecision and Toms slander of Gatsby, Daisy begged Tom to take her home, and he really sympathized with Gatsby.He loves too humble, in this relationship into too much, can not extricate themselves, stubborn and stubborn. Think of Daisy more than your life. After Daisy accidentally bumped Toms mistress to death, he just waited outside Daisys house to make sure she was safe. His good friend Nick asked him to leave. He had to wait for Daisys phone call, but it was Wilsons shot. But Tom and Daisy still left, when nothing happened, cold and heartless.Gatsbys death may be a better ending, with his dedication to Daisy. Otherwise, its hard to imagine what his life would be like without daisy. In this way, to keep a perfect image in the readers mind for a long time, to imagine each other and toexpect love.I dont want to mention Gatsbys indifference and depression after his death. Only Nick as a spectators final evaluation is the most touching. In his last chat with Gatsby, the sentence "they are rotten crowd, youre worth the whole damn bunch put together" that he left left gave Gatsby a warm feeling in his lonely love seeking life. I was very moved to see it. Gatsbys greatness was recognized and resonated with readers.Such a dedicated and lovely Great Gatsby is believed to be the dream partner in the hearts of all girls. Its enough to have such a person in life. Finally, a picture of Leonardos Gatsby will be posted. If you are interested, you can see the movie.《了不起的盖茨比》英语读后感2The Great Gatsby is a short story published by Francis Scott kifitzgerald in 1925. At the end of the 20th century, the American academic authority selected one hundred of the best novels among the hundred years of English literature. The Great Gatsby ranks the second in the list of Contemporary Classics. The appearance of this novel established Feis position in the history of modern American literature, and was hailed as the symbol of the American jazz age and one of the representative writers of the lost generation.The Great Gatsby is set in the upper class white circle of American society in the 1920s. It is composed of everything I see, experience and feel in the first person. I, Nick, a small poor employee, lived next to the rich man Gatsby, and accidentally broke into the paper addicted upper class society. In the atmosphere of singing and drinking, I was surprised to find the huge secret hidden in Gatsbys heart. No one knows how Gatsby succeeded, how Gatsby became rich, or even how Gatsby looked. But no one does not know Gatsbys name and the banquet he held. Gatsbys heart is to repeat the past and recover the past, his favorite woman in his life daisy. Daisy and millionaire Tom have been married, but unfortunately, her husband has an affair. When the two meet again five years later, Gatsby may still be Romeo, while Daisy is no longer Juliet. Gatsbys stubborn pursuit of heart yearning, but reality has shattered his illusory and almost naive dream with a cold attitude.The author describes a vivid Gatsby for us from the perspective of the third party with a cool and warm style of description of Impressionism, outlines a nearly perfect and accessible dream for us, and provides us with an opportunity to witness the envy of the upper class society, but mercilesslybreaks the charm of the people in front of us with a determined attitude The colorful heart, the end of the story, the coldness of Gatsbys funeral and the noise of the banquet, Gatsbys ardent persistence and Daisys indifference have formed a strong contrast. Although reality has broken the dream, it also makes the living see the hypocrisy and indifference of reality.《了不起的盖茨比》英语读后感3Recently, I just finished reading the Great Gatsby book, and I feel a lot of emotion, because he is not only talking about dreams, society, but also human nature.In the era of everyones pursuit of the "American Dream", a person with a dream to resist seems to have touched heaven for a time, but ultimately defeated fate.When people fall, they end up. The American version of "seeing him rise from Zhulou, seeing his banquet guests, seeing his building collapse".After Gatsbys death, there was no one willing to take care of his affairs or even come to the funeral to send him to the last leg, which was in sharp contrast to the bustling scene of the party in his villa. Maybe you think you cant get anything from this person here, but will you be involved? How sad. Hypocritical human feelings and collective silence are commonfaults of human nature?His former friend said, "we should understand that when we talk about friendship, we should talk about it when we are alive, and when we are dead, there will be no friendship."Compared with what I get from others, maybe I value my conscience more.But in the Great Gatsby, each full of independent human nature is the real human nature of the world. To understand the world, we must first understand human nature. This book is already a good revelation of human nature.I often think of Carnegies weakness in human nature, the whole description of human nature. Say: human being is a high-level animal. In his nature, he is greedy, hateful, and infatuated with all kinds of desires, which is hard to fill, so the world suffers a lot. Just like many middle-aged people nowadays, there are old people and small people, and they still need to pay back the house loan in the middle. They dare not leave their jobs and do not dare to make any changes. There are layers of mountains on their bodies. They cant breathe. The burden is too heavy and they cant take off. After all, human beings are still social animals. They are in a complex social relationship. Its too difficult to be indifferent. They canonly compromise.Born to be human is born to die. Human nature cant stand the test and scrutiny. All of them are the same. Human nature is not worth it, and human life is not worth it. So dont hold too much hope, think about what you want and do what you like to do. However, there are often many people who dont know what they like to do and what they want. Its sad.Gatsbys consistent love for Daisy, in any case, takes Daisy as the first. The most outstanding thing is to stay at Daisys house after the car accident and worry that she will be embarrassed by Tom. Gatsby recognizes his goal and insists on his pursuit in the flashy world. But I have to say that his dream, Daisy, is not worth it. She loves only herself.Maybe it was brainwashed by too many idol dramas and jitangwen before. They have infinite and beautiful reverie and hope for love. They think that there must be someone who loves you as much as love life. But the more they grow up, the more they find out that no, people always love themselves more than others, and they love themselves the most, especially for their little pay. They must be more rewarded than themselves, except for their parents Its funny that when I think about the deep meaning behind it, I dont think its romantic. In fact, I believethere is love in the world, but I just dont believe it will happen to us.However, I am still totally convinced by Gatsbys faithful pursuit of love, even though what he pursues is like the green light that is never accessible, even left behind by him.A lot of life is the process of chasing the green light in his heart. If Gatsby is not so persistent, he will not become Gatsby. This is in line with our real life, and its hard to keep his original mind like Gatsby, even though his dream has been Utopian.In fact, they are very similar to the times we live in. What should we stick to and pursue in our life? I think its worth everyone thinking about their life.The green light of life is often like this. Its the persistence and pure yearning for dreams that support us. When we get close, its not the same thing. But after all, we have tried our best. Although just passing by.【《了不起的盖茨比》英语读后感(精选3篇)】终于写完毕了,希望能够帮助到大家,谢谢!。

了不起的盖茨比英文读后感1I have heard of the famous novel The Great Gatsby for many years. However, until recently have I got the time and mood to read it. As soon as I finish reading, I find my previous unwarranted assumptionof it totally wrong.This is a story about Gatsby and his pursuit for the ‘American dreams’。
During the World War One, the poor soldier Gatsby fell in love with an upper class girl named Daisy. But due to the wide gap between them, Daisy decided to marry Tom, a man of her class, instead of Gatsby. Broken-hearted Gatsby then held the conviction that money was of the greatest importance. He strongly believed in the‘American dreams’, which as we all know, advocates that one can achieve whatever he or she likes through continuous efforts. Hestrived for five years to become a millionaire and bought a villanear Daisy’s to attract her. He was too addicted to his fantasy to realize that Daisy was no longer the lovely girl she used to be. Eventually, he was killed because of her crime.After reading it, something reverberates in my heart. I can’t help thinking of the theme Fitzgerald trying to convey. One thing may be the lonely void of people’s spiritu al world. I am deeply impressed by chapter 3, where a vivid description of a party is given. There were beautiful girls, drunk men, and boisterous crowds there, but none of them perceived the pointless of their lives and thebarren of their minds. To see this phenomenon deeper, there were two circumstances underlying it. The first is the lack of dreams. Some people, especially the people of the upper class, lived an aimless life. They wasted their time and money and took an indifferentattitude towards life. They chased for temporary ecstasy but losttheir identity in eternity, namely Daisy and Tom. The second is the misleading of dreams. Some others like Gatsby, bravely pursued their dreams, yet going to a diverged way unconsciously. They might mix up the concept of a richer life and a happier life, viewing a higher social state and a peaceful fulfilled life as equality. Unfortunately, when they were busy chasing their dreams, everything changed with time. When they were anxious about the to-gets, they ignored whatthey had already had and lost the alert to the constant changes. The excellent use of symbolization illustrates this idea perfectly. The imagery of ‘green light’ is the most important symble whichoccurred three times in the novel. The green-light’s obscure in the mist indicates the dim of Gatsby’s dreams.As far as I am concerned, this story can serve as a reminder for us. To live a meaningful life, we should carefully choose some dreams to pursue. And in the process of fulfilling our dreams, we should always be concious about what we really desire. Anyhow, only by pursuing the proper dreams can we finally get to the deep springs of happiness.了不起的盖茨比英文读后感2The Great Gatsby is the work of Francis Scott Fitzgerald, an American poet and dreamer, published in 1925. This time, it is the work of Li Jihong, a talented translator.In the novel, Gatsby was born in a poor family and fell in love with Daisy when he was young. However, he was unable to marry Daisy because of poverty. The reality made Gatsbys fantasy in his heart disillusioned for the first time. Daisy is a very realistic rich woman, and she immediately married another rich businessman Tom. Later Gatsby became a millionaire by his own efforts and luck. Gatsby was still nostalgic for his former lover after he made his fortune. He just wanted to see the green light at Daisys Wharf and set his home by the sea.At the beginning of the novel, the author uses a lot of ink to describe Gatsbys scene of entertaining guests and friends in the mansion, as well as his feelings after meeting Daisy again. Although Daisys husband Tom was adamant against it, they were still recklessly sweet. Just as they were about to walk to the "happiness Avenue", Daisy accidentally hit a passer-by while driving, which resulted in the death of passers-by. The authors use of such dramatic colors is really boastful. Gatsby was willing to give up his life and wealthfor daisy. In sharp contrast to this, Daisy and Tom are selfish and indifferent. They deliberately excuse themselves to go away from home and blame Gatsby for all the accidents. Once again, the realitycoldly shattered his illusory and almost naive dream.At first glance, the title of "amazing" Gatsby, but at the beginning, I had been thinking hard. I just couldnt figure out where he was? Its only after a lot of aftertaste that we have an epiphany.Gatsby is a great man. His greatness lies in his simple and simple view of love. He thinks that love is the world of two people.Gatsby can live a rich and upper class life from poverty to wealth, but he is not moved by money and fame. All his purposes are only to meet Daisy again until his life ends in tragedy. Gatsbys greatness lies in his wish I want to exchange my life for Daisys life. Knowing that we cant do it, I applaud Gatsbys courage again!"The Great Gatsby" is such a story of "the grandiose age, thelast classical love dream" with tragic color!了不起的盖茨比英文读后感3Summer order. Just finished reading "the Great Gatsby", write down the feeling after reading it. To be honest, I dont really understand the meaning of it. Maybe I dont know enough about the American dream and the jazz age.But I still felt the infinite sadness revealed in the novel. At the beginning, I was intoxicated with gold. The lively party scene was in sharp contrast with the funeral of Gatsby that no one except the hero was willing to attend. Even Daisy, the only important person in Gatsbys heart, never sent a telegram to send a flower. How sad!I can only write some miniature of Gatsby and the world I saw. Gatsby is a fool who is loyal to love. He used to be a self disciplined man, but in order to get Daisy, he would not hesitate to walk outside the rules and laws to make himself rich. It seems that Daisy can choose him!Toms arrogance and even the people who attended the party were still full of insults to Gatsby. Daisy chose a rich and powerful man as the marriage object among many suitors (even if she didnt love him so much). The shock and alienation after hearing Gatsbys moneys coming were the choice of those hateful upper class people for that era -- money and power.At the end of the story, he was misunderstood and shot in his own yard. No one came to see him off. Even Daisy didnt come. In the end, wealth and love are empty dreams. How disappointing!Maybe Gatsby, who has dreams in his heart and has been struggling hard, is amazing!At the end of the novel:So we continue to strive forward, sailing against the current, being pushed back until we return to the past.Good evening, Mr. Gatsby.了不起的盖茨比英文读后感4"The great gatsby is a harbor of" American dream "in theliterature writer Fitzgerald's works, Fitzgerald said his own extraordinary, with his parents is different also, don't even think of themselves as the son of parents, he has come from the self Platonic idea.In this article, the hero that gatsby is a unique thought of the people, he also have Platonic love.

He knew his heart to heart with god, must be single-minded, never heart side wu chi.

Of course he is praiseworthy in some places. He can read the love is beautiful, and not like most people associate love and interests. But he really misled by his ideal, he did not see time and occasion, he shouldn't be on the right people also is reluctant to part with the past memories after married. And Daisy this person too vain, too greedy. To some extent, gatesthan the final fate has a lot to do with her.了不起的盖茨比英文读后感5Recently read "the great gatsby, a story of hegemony set up dawn.

第一篇:了不起的盖茨比读后感(英文)What Makes The Great Gatsby Great?Recently, I have read a classical novel, The Great Gatsby, Francis Key Fitzgerald is the author, who is one of the most outstanding writers in 20th century.I think all the plots in the novel are similar to the something happens in the today’s society. The story is told by Nick(Daisy’s cousin),who witnesses a lot the ugly aspects of the society and human characters. Here is the story goes: Tom and Daisy married for a time and live in East Egg. In their opposite, living a very great wealthy man, called Gatsby. He hold parties day and night and get famous for this. Actually, Daisy and Gatsby fell in love a few years ago. At that time, Gatsby was very poor and dispatched into Europe because of war. Then, they broke up and Daisy married Tom, the second-generation rich. Latter, Gatsby comes back with social position and big fortunate, and he continues loving Daisy. At a car accident, Daisy kills the Tom’s mistress. To protect Daisy, Gatsby takes all the responsibility of the accident. Finally, Wilson (the husband of mistress) shoots Gatsby under the instigation of Tom. And Tom and Daisy set foot on Europe’s travelling.I think everyone feels pity for the Gatsby, for his infatuation to Daisy and for his foolish love, like the following two descriptions.①“--Was Daisy driving? ---Yes, he said after a moment, but of course I’ll say I was.”(p154)②“the chauffeur –he was one of Wolfshiem’sprotégés-heard the shoots-”(p172).As we can see Gatsby undertakes the responsibility of the accident and that’s his cold ending. So what makes The Great Gatsby Great?I think the answer also is the image of Gatsby. Because of his profound love to Daisy even though the others become selfish and sophisticated in the society. He devotes himself to making big fortune for expecting Daisy’s return; he take responsibility of car accident at the expense of being put in the prison. Yes, this great man displays something called Profound Love when the society members’hearts becoming colder and colder. And I always feel sympathetic to Gatsby’s consequence. We may say how stupid he is to pay so much to Daisy, but in other words, how persistent he is to his believing about love. He always thinks that all his behaviors can make Daisy change her mind and come back.Gatsby is a tragic hero in the novel, maybe his profound love and strong faith lead to his bad ending. But I always believe this two valuable things are the writer appeals to in that time, also works in today’s. Here’s my understanding to the question What Makes The Great Gatsby Great?第二篇:《了不起的盖茨比》英文读后感The disillusion of the American dream- The Great Gatsby book reviewThe Great Gatsby is the representative work of American writer Francis Scott Fitzgerald.

During the World War One, the poor soldier Gatsby fell in love with an upper class girl named Daisy. But due to the wide gap between them, Daisy decided to marry Tom, a man of her class, instead of Gatsby. Broken-hearted Gatsby then held the conviction that money was of the greatest importance. He strongly believed in the‘American dreams’, which as we all know, advocates that one can achieve whatever he or she likes through continuous efforts. He strived for five years to become a millionaire and bought a villa near Daisy’s to attract her. He was too addicted to his fantasy to realize that Daisy was no longer the lovely girl she used to be. Eventually, he was killed because of her crime. I can’t help thinking of the theme Fitzgerald trying to convey. One thing may be the lonely void of people’s spiritual world. I am deeply impressed by chapter 3. There were two circumstances underlying it. The first is the lack of dreams. Some people, especially the people of the upper class, lived an aimless life. They wasted their time and money and took an indifferent attitude towards life. They chased for temporary ecstasy but lost their identity in eternity, namely Daisy and Tom. The second is the misleading of dreams. Some others like Gatsby, bravely pursued their dreams, yet going to a diverged way unconsciously. They might mix up the concept of a richer life and a happier life, viewing a higher social state and a peaceful fulfilled life as equality. Unfortunately, when they were busy chasing their dreams, everything changed with time. W they ignored what they had already had and lost the alert to the constant changes. As far as I am concerned, this story can serve as a reminder for us. To live a meaningful life, we should carefully choose some dreams to pursue. And in the process of fulfilling our dreams, we should always be concious about what we really desire. Anyhow, only by pursuing the proper dreams can we finally get to the deep springs of happiness.第四篇:《了不起的盖茨比》英文读后感We Die for Our Dreams——Comments on The Great Gatsby It was in a book of Murakami Haruki that I knew The Great Gatsby for the first time. He said that The Great Gatsby was a fantastic fiction so that I immediately developed a strong interest in it. At that time I wondered that what masterpiece would be worth such compliments from an excellent writer like Murakami Haruki. It must be more than a masterpiece.I read The Great Gatsby several years ago when I was in senior high school. Actually I was reading it for fun, the reason of which is obvious that under the great pressure of schoolwork I wouldn’t spare one more hour to receive another boring sermon from anybody. However, I found it wasn’t that attractive as I imaged so I quitted reading it after getting the superficial main idea of it. Gatsby was decisive and stupid; his dream lover Daisy was vulgar and ruthless; Daisy’s husband, accordingly, was a total jerk. There are neither admirable characters nor exciting plot at all. It was definitely a masterpiece but wasn’t my cup of tea. As time passed by, I realized that even the same person tended to develop an extremely different opinion towards the very book. Now I read it all over again and I found something deep and thought-provoking about it.Gatsby was described as an arrogant and tasteless businessman who was quite wealthy. He held parties almost every night to gather those so-called rich and genteel people. However, his real purpose was to meet his first lover—Daisy who had already married another rich and famed man. As he wished, he got to meet Daisy and found that she was still in love with him. But he didn’t realize that Daisy wasn’t what she used to be. She was no longer that innocent girl who waited for her lover, full of joy and wishes. In the end, Gatsby died for Daisy, the woman he had loved for lifetime. With little guilt or sorrow, Daisy quickly got rid of the whole mess and moved onsmoothly as if nothing has happened, as if there has never been such a man named Gatsby who was in deep love with her and died for her. Gatsby’s love story was filledwith cheat and cupidity. The statement that Gatsby and Daisy were in love with each other was merely a misconception. Or rather, they used to be in love for a short period but in the end, time changed everything and true love turned out an absurd lie.From another perspective, neither of them is to blame in this tragedy named love. Daisy was a typical woman of that time, who had pretty face as well as empty brain, married a rich man, spent their life going for various parties and immoderate shopping, and turned a blind eye to their husbands’stuff. They had original pureness and rosy dreams which finally were eroded by the onrush of depraved age. And Gatsby was just a man who was still stuck in previously romance and tried his best to earn back his lover. He was oriented, diligent and sometimes kind-hearted. He had the courage to chase his dream while most people didn’t, though his attempt ended up nothing.Somebody said that be prepared for the nothing stuff and nowhere land, and keep walking with dreams. Maybe this makes sense to some extent. Even if we can predict the end in the very beginning, we will still orient ourselves in the thick fog and move ahead until death.第五篇:《了不起的盖茨比》英文读后感Pursuit for dreams—after reading The Great GatsbyI have heard of the famous novel The Great Gatsby for many years. However, until recently have I got the time and mood to read it. As soon as I finish reading, I find my previous unwarranted assumption of it totally wrong.This is a story about Gatsby and his pursuit for the ‘American dreams’. During the World War One, the poor soldier Gatsby fell in love with an upper class girl named Daisy. But due to the wide gap between them, Daisy decided to marry Tom, a man of her class, instead of Gatsby. Broken-hearted Gatsby then held the conviction that money was of the greatest importance. He strongly believed in the ‘American dreams’, which as we all know, advocates that one can achieve whatever he or she likes through continuous efforts. He strived for five years to become a millionaire and bought a villa near Daisy’s to attract her. He was too addicted to his fantasy to realize that Daisy was no longer the lovely girl she used to be. Eventually, he was killed because of her crime.After reading it, something reverberates in my heart. I can’t help thinking of the theme Fitzgerald trying to convey. One thing may be the lonely void of people’s spiritual world. I am deeply impressed by chapter 3, where a vivid description of a party is given.There were beautiful girls, drunk men, and boisterous crowds there, but none of them perceived the pointless of their lives and the barren of their minds. To see this phenomenon deeper, there were two circumstances underlying it. The first is the lack of dreams. Some people, especially the people of the upper class,lived an aimless life. They wasted their time and money and took an indifferent attitude towards life. They chased for temporary ecstasy but lost their identity in eternity, namely Daisy and Tom. The second is the misleading of dreams. Some others like Gatsby, bravely pursued their dreams, yet going to a diverged way unconsciously. They might mix up the concept of a richer life and a happier life, viewing a higher social state and a peaceful fulfilled life as equality. Unfortunately, when they were busy chasing their dreams, everything changed with time. When they were anxious about the to-gets, they ignored what they had already had and lost the alert to the constant changes. The excellent use of symbolization illustrates this idea perfectly. The imagery of ‘green light’is the most important symble which occurred three times in the novel. The green-light’s obscure in the mist indicates the dim of Gatsby’s dreams.As far as I am concerned, this story can serve as a reminder for us. To live a meaningful life, we should carefully choose some dreams to pursue. And in the process of fulfilling our dreams, weshould always be concious about what we really desire. Anyhow, only by pursuing the proper dreams can we finally get to the deep springs of happiness.。

本巴读后感800字英文回答:After reading "The Great Gatsby", I was deeply moved by the story and the characters. The novel, written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, is set in the 1920s and explores themes of wealth, love, and the American Dream. It follows thelife of Jay Gatsby, a mysterious and wealthy man who throws extravagant parties in the hopes of winning back his lost love, Daisy Buchanan.One of the things that struck me about the book is Fitzgerald's beautiful and descriptive writing style. He paints a vivid picture of the Roaring Twenties, with its glitz and glamour, but also exposes the dark underbelly of the era. The characters in the novel are all flawed intheir own ways, which makes them more relatable and human. For example, Gatsby's obsession with Daisy and his willingness to do anything to win her back is both romantic and tragic.Another aspect of the book that I found interesting is the exploration of the American Dream. Gatsby is the epitome of the self-made man, who rises from poverty to wealth and success. However, his pursuit of the American Dream ultimately leads to his downfall. This theme resonates with me, as it reflects the pursuit of material wealth and social status that is prevalent in our society today.Overall, "The Great Gatsby" is a thought-provoking novel that delves into the complexities of human nature and the pursuit of happiness. It serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of obsession and the emptiness of the American Dream. The characters and their struggles are relatable, and the writing style is captivating. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys character-driven stories and wants to explore deeper themes.中文回答:《了不起的盖茨比》这本书让我深受感动。
大奖章的读后感受50字Reading "The Great Gatsby" has left a profound impact on me. The novel delves into the themes of love, wealth, and the American Dream, and it has prompted me to reflect on the complexities of human nature and the pursuit of happiness. The characters in the story are deeply flawed, yet their struggles and desires are relatable, making the novel a thought-provoking and emotionally resonant read.One of the most striking aspects of "The Great Gatsby" is its exploration of the illusion of the American Dream. The characters in the novel are all chasing after their own versions of success and happiness, but ultimately find themselves disillusioned and unfulfilled. This theme resonates deeply with me as I consider the societal pressures and expectations that often drive people to pursue material wealth and status, only to find that these things do not bring true happiness. The novel serves as a poignant reminder of the emptiness that can accompany the relentless pursuit of the American Dream.Additionally, the novel's portrayal of love and relationships is both heartbreaking and thought-provoking. The characters' romantic entanglements are marked by passion, betrayal, and longing, and their experiences serve as a stark commentary on the complexities of human emotions. Through their interactions, the novel highlights the waysin which love can be both transformative and destructive, and how it can ultimately shape the course of our lives. As I reflect on the characters' relationships, I am remindedof the fragility of love and the ways in which it can both uplift and devastate us.Furthermore, "The Great Gatsby" offers a compelling commentary on the corrupting influence of wealth and privilege. The opulence and extravagance of the characters' lives stand in stark contrast to the moral decay and disillusionment that permeate the novel. The characters' relentless pursuit of wealth and status ultimately leads to their downfall, serving as a cautionary tale about the destructive power of greed and excess. This aspect of the novel has prompted me to consider the ways in which wealthcan corrupt and distort our values, and the importance of maintaining a sense of integrity and humility in the face of material success.Moreover, the novel's exploration of the human capacity for self-deception and reinvention is both fascinating and unsettling. The characters in "The Great Gatsby" are adept at constructing facades and projecting idealized versions of themselves to the world, yet beneath the surface, they are plagued by insecurities and disillusionment. This aspect of the novel has prompted me to reflect on the ways in which we all engage in self-deception and the ways in which we present ourselves to others. It serves as a sobering reminder of the masks we wear and the innerturmoil that often lies beneath the surface.Finally, "The Great Gatsby" has left me with a profound sense of melancholy and introspection. The novel's tragic and bittersweet conclusion serves as a poignant reminder of the fleeting nature of life and the inevitability of loss and disillusionment. As I contemplate the fates of the characters and the themes of the novel, I am left with adeep sense of empathy and introspection. The novel has prompted me to consider the transient nature of happiness and the ways in which we grapple with the complexities of human existence.In conclusion, "The Great Gatsby" is a deeply moving and thought-provoking novel that has left a lasting impression on me. Its exploration of love, wealth, and the American Dream has prompted me to reflect on the complexities of human nature and the pursuit of happiness. The novel's themes of disillusionment, love, and the corrupting influence of wealth have resonated deeply with me, and I am left with a profound sense of introspection and empathy. "The Great Gatsby" is a timeless and emotionally resonant work that continues to provoke deep reflection and contemplation.。
人教版高中英语必修二第五单元作文的范文全文共10篇示例,供读者参考篇1Hello everyone, today I want to talk about the fifth unit of the second volume of the high school English textbook. This unit is all about culture shock and the differences between Eastern and Western cultures. It's super interesting!First of all, let's talk about what culture shock is. It's like when you go to another country and things are so different from what you're used to that you feel confused or even shocked. For example, in some countries, people eat with chopsticks instead of forks and knives. That would be so strange for me!In the unit, we also learned about the differences in communication styles between Eastern and Western cultures. In Western cultures, people are more direct and may say exactly what they mean. But in Eastern cultures, people may be more indirect and use hints or body language to express themselves. It's cool to learn about these differences because it helps us understand and appreciate other cultures.Overall, I really enjoyed learning about culture shock and the differences between Eastern and Western cultures in this unit. It's important to be open-minded and respectful of other cultures, even if they are different from our own. I can't wait to learn more about different cultures in the future! Thank you for listening to my summary of the unit, and I hope you enjoyed it too. Bye!篇2Title: My Adventure in The Great GatsbyOh my goodness, guys!

It's a wild ride, let me tell you!After reading The Great Gatsby, I learned a lot about the 1920s and how society was back then.

It's all about the Industrial Revolution.The Industrial Revolution was a really big deal because it changed the way people worked and lived. Before the Industrial Revolution, people did a lot of manual labor and things were made by hand. But then, machines were invented that could do the work faster and better. This changed everything!One of the key inventions of the Industrial Revolution was the steam engine. It made it possible for machines to run on their own power, without needing people to turn them. This led to the growth of factories and the mass production of goods. It also led to the rise of cities and a new way of life for many people.Another important aspect of the Industrial Revolution was the impact on society. There were big changes in the way people worked and where they lived. Many people moved from the countryside to the cities to find work in the factories. This led to overcrowding and poor living conditions for many people.Overall, the Industrial Revolution had a huge impact on society and the way we live today. It's really interesting to learn about how it all started and how it changed the world. I hope you enjoyed hearing about it as much as I enjoyed telling you!篇5Hiiii! Today I wanna tell you about the English essay I wrote for my high school class. The topic was all about how technology makes our lives easier. Omg, I was so excited to write this one because I love using my phone and computer all the time!So, in my essay, I talked about how we can do so many things with technology like chatting with friends, watching videos, and even doing homework online. I remember mentioning how apps and websites can help us find information super fast and make studying more fun.I also wrote about how technology helps us stay connected with our family and friends, even if they live far away. I love using video calls to talk to my grandma and she always tells me how happy she is to see my face on the screen.I ended my essay by saying that although technology is awesome, we still need to find a balance and not spend too much time on our devices. It's important to go outside, play sports, and hang out with friends in real life too.I got a good grade on my essay and my teacher said I did a great job explaining my ideas. I'm so proud of myself and can't wait to write more essays in the future! Yayyy for technology!篇6Title: My Thoughts on Nature ConservationHi everyone! Today I want to talk about nature conservation. In our English class, we have learned about how important it is toprotect the environment. I think it's super important to take care of nature because it gives us so many good things like clean air, fresh water, and beautiful landscapes.One way we can help protect nature is by reducing, reusing, and recycling. We can use less plastic and paper, and instead, bring our own reusable bags and bottles. We should also recycle things like cans and bottles instead of throwing them away.Another way to help nature is by planting trees and flowers. Trees give us oxygen and help clean the air. Flowers provide food for bees and butterflies. We can also pick up trash when we see it on the ground to keep our environment clean.I also think it's important to learn more about animals and how we can protect them. Some animals are endangered, which means they are in danger of disappearing forever. We should try to help them by not destroying their habitats and by not hunting them.In conclusion, nature is amazing and we should do our best to protect it. Let's work together to make the world a better place for all living things. Thank you for listening to my thoughts on nature conservation!篇7Hello everybody! Today I want to talk about the fifth unit of our high school English book, which is all about culture shock. So, what is culture shock? Well, it's when you go to a new place and feel kind of confused or maybe even uncomfortable because things are so different from what you're used to.I remember when I went on a trip to Japan with my family. At first, I was so excited to see all the cool gadgets and try the delicious food. But then I realized that people there don't really talk to strangers on the street, which is something I'm not used to at all! I felt a bit lonely and misunderstood at first, but then I started to understand that it's just part of their culture.In this unit, we also learned about different ways to deal with culture shock, like keeping an open mind, asking questions, and trying to learn about the new culture. I think these are really important things to remember when we travel to new places or meet people from different backgrounds.So, let's remember to always be respectful and open-minded when we encounter new cultures. Who knows, we might just learn something really cool and make some new friends along the way!That's all for now. Thanks for listening!篇8Hello everyone! Today I want to tell you about the fifth unit of our high school English textbook, which is all about culture shock. Do you know what culture shock is? Well, it's when you feel confused or surprised by the different customs and ways of life in a new country or culture.In this unit, we learn about different aspects of culture shock, like language barriers, food differences, and social customs. We also learn about how to deal with culture shock and adapt to a new culture. It's really important to be open-minded and respectful of other cultures, even if they are different from our own.One way to overcome culture shock is to learn about the culture before you visit a new country. This can help you understand why people do things a certain way and avoid misunderstandings. It's also important to be patient and willing to try new things.

So next timeyou travel to a new place, remember to keep an open mind and embrace the differences. Who knows, you might even make some new friends along the way!That's all for now, see you next time!篇9OK!

Today I want to share with you my thoughts on the fifth unit of the high school English book. This unit is all about different cultures around the world and how they influence our lives.First of all, I really enjoyed learning about the customs and traditions of different countries. It's so cool to see how people in other parts of the world celebrate holidays or greet each other. For example, in Japan, they bow to show respect, while in India, they put their hands together and say "Namaste."I also learned a lot about the history and geography of different regions. Did you know that the Great Wall of China isover 13,000 miles long? That's so amazing! And I never knew that the pyramids in Egypt were built over 4,000 years ago.Another thing I found interesting was how different countries have different food and clothing.

After Reading the Great Gatsby
11英语师范1班吴菁
I saw the famous movie “The Great Gatsby” before reading its book. As soon as I finish reading, I found myself totally touched by this story.
This is a story about Gatsby and his pursuit for his “American dreams”. During the World War Ⅰ, the poor soldier Gatsby fell in love with an upper class girl named Daisy. However, Gatsby realized the wide gap between them and he is too poor to marry her. Meanwhile, Daisy married Tom, a man of her class. Although reluctantly, but I think she did not try to fight for her love to Gatsby; maybe she did not love him that much. Broken-hearted Gatsby then held the conviction that money was of the greatest importance. He strongly believed in the ‘American dreams’, which advocates that one can achieve whatever he or she likes through continuous efforts. In order to get her back, he tried to become rich and educated. He strived for five years to become a millionaire and bought a mansion near Daisy’s. He had parties every weekend to attract Daisy to come. Finally they met each other under the help of Nick. But he found that the girl was not the Daisy in his dream and Gatsby had a sense of loss. Eventually, he was killed because of her crime.
After reading it, I can’t help thinking of the main character Gatsby and I feel sorry for him, his lonely void of spiritual world. I am deeply impressed by chapter 3, where a vivid description of a party is given. There were beautiful girls, drunk men, and boisterous crowds there, but all of them led the pointless lives and cannot realized the barren of their minds. To see this phenomenon deeper, there were two circumstances underlying it. The first is the lack of dreams. Some people, especially the people of the upper class. They wasted their time and money and took an indifferent attitude towards life. They chased for temporary ecstasy but lost their identity in eternity, such as Daisy and Tom. The second is the misleading of dreams. Some others like Gatsby bravely pursued their dreams, yet going to a diverged way unconsciously. They might mix up the concept of a richer life and a happier life. Unfortunately, when they were busy chasing their dreams, everything changed with time. The excellent use of symbolization illustrates this idea perfectly. The imagery of “green light” is the most important symbol which occurred three times in the novel. The green-light’s obscure in the mist indicates the dim of Gatsby’s dreams.
From his life, we can see the lives of some Americans. They have a dream, and they work very hard, but at last, they have a sense of loss. In term of Gatsby, his love to Daisy is all to him. He worked hard to get wealthy for her; he held party for her, and even died for her. Gatsby thought Daisy in his dream is a beautiful and innocent girl, and she will love him forever, even he was poor, even she married to Tom. But actually, Daisy had changed. She became selfish and meretricious. She did not want to give up Tom, a wealthy man. I think it is not worthy for Gatsby to love her, death may be a perfect way for Gatsby to relieve.
I hold the view that this story can be a reminder to us. To live a meaningful life, we should carefully choose some dreams to pursue. And in the process of pursuing our dreams, we should always be conscious about what we really desire.。
