Thoughts About The Sun Also Rises After the World War I,many young people feel upset and corrupt.The protagonist of the novel Jack and Brett are typical examples.They love each but can’t marry because of the impotence of Jack..Then Brett always has affairs with a number of men.Her life,like the lives of many in her generation,is aimless and not fulfilling.Other people,such as Cohn,Bill and Mike are also the member of the Lost Generation.In this article,I will mainly talk about the comment of the social condition and the characteristic of the novel.The Comment of The SocialLost Generation refers to the generation after the World War I,which fill their time with inconsequential and escapist activities,such as drinking,dancing,and debauchery. They don’t have any goals in their lives and just want to get easy and comfortable. Normally,they are pitiful generation.Such as Jack can’t have sex,and Cohn feels shy because he is Jewish.With profound psychological consequences,they ignore love and faith.The reason of the appearance of the Lost Generation are a little complicated.On the one hand,as veteran of World War I,they have the experience of cruel war which give them huge fear in heart.On the other hand,they are sensitive and don’t want to believe other people.Then everyone become ruthless and selfish.Nowadays,we can also find the occasion like this.On the road,when a old lady fall over herself,there maybe few people try to help her because they can believe the lady. What’s more,plenty of boys extremely like to play computer games in dormitory instead to learn more skills.They just want to get happiness whatever it takes.That’s what we should to rethink profoundly.The Characteristic of The NovelOn the whole novel,the greatest characteristic is the simple narrate and deep thought.The author just talk about some small thing in their lives without any comment. For example,although Jack does not say so directly,there are numerous in the novel when he implies that,as a result of his injury,he has lost the ability to have sex.In addition,the author successful to express his deep thoughts with some plots.On thisnovel,the Lost Generation lived an aimless,immoral existence,devoid of true emotion and characterized by casual interpersonal cruelty.After read the novel,readers always try to think a lot about the figure and the story.What’s more,the novel also has great importance to contemporary literature.The smart ways to express thoughts was named as Iceberg Theory and more and more people learn that.It will have greater influence to later ages.My ThoughtsI have read the book for nearly4months.Although there are many words I never see, I always learn them on the Internet.The app“You dao Dictionary”helps me a lot and inspires my excitement to learn English.No pain,no gain.I believe my English will get greater progress with my hard working.In a word,I have learned a lot from it and hope to get another book to read in this term.。

片段赏析
After the coffee and a fine we got the bill, chalked up the same as ever on a slate, that was doubtless one of the quaint features, paid it, shook hands, and went out. "you never come here anymore, Monsieur Barnes," Madame lecomte said. "Too many compatriots" "Come at lunch-time. It is not crowded them." "Good. I'll be down soon." " You are an expatriate. You're lost touch with the soil. You get precious. Fake european standards had ruined you. You drink yourself to death......" "It sounds like a swell life," I said, "Where do I life?"

1. The travel to Paris (Expatriates' Travel)
• “这一代人之所以迷惘，首先是因为他们是无根之 木，在外地上学，几乎和任何地区或传统失却联 系。这一代人之所以迷惘，是因为他们所受的训 练是为了应付另一种生活，而不是战后的那种生 活，是因为战争使他们只能适应旅行和带刺激性 的生活。这一代人之所以迷惘，是因为他们试图 过流放的生活。这一代人之所以迷惘，是因为他 们不接受旧的行为准则，并因为他们对社会和作 家在社会中的地位形成了一种错误的看法。这— 代人属于从既定的社会准则向尚未产生的社会准 则过渡的时期。” （Malcolm Cowley《流放者的 归来》）
3. Interactions between Different Cultures
• Travelers and local people will gaze at each other. • E.g.: Jake and Romero.
• They represent different cultures. Jack likes Romero’s corrida performance because it can demonstrate masculinity and he can gain consolation from watching it. As for Romero, he is very interested in foreign culture, the contact between the 2 people gives benefit to each other.
