I read the Chinese version of “Camille” a few years ago. At that time I was deeply moved by the main character Marguerite Gautier. “Camille” or “The Lady of the Camellias” by Alexandre Dumas, fils, is the story of Marguerite Gautier, a young courtesan, or kept woman, in Paris in the mid 1800's, and how she falls in love with a young man, Armand Duval, and then tries to escape from her questionable past. Unfortunately, it comes back to haunt her and she ends up returning to that life and dies painfully and alone, but with the knowledge that she was a noble woman at heart. When I first began to read the book, I did not care for Marguerite or her attitude or lifestyle, but as I got further into the narrative, I realized that her saucy attitude was a front to cover the lonely woman that she really was. She felt used, abused and unloved, until the gentle Armand Duval came into her life and showed her that he loved her as a person and not for what she could do for him. It must have taken great courage for Marguerite to leave the life she had lived for so long, knowing all along that it was probably too good to be true and would not last indefinitely. And it also showed that Marguerite really loved Armand Duval for she could even change herself for him.
However, happiness didn’t last for long. When M. Duval, Armand's father, came to her, pleading for her to leave Armand to save both Armand's reputation and that of his younger innocent sister, Marguerite saw a way to become pure of heart, if not in body. She felt that it was her duty, because she loved Armand so much, to do this even though it meant giving up her own happiness and hurting Armand temporarily. She reluctantly returned to her former life, knowing that.some day Armand would forgive her. Sadly, she died in debt and basically alone, except for her one female friend, Julie Duprat, who helped her during her illness. She had her journal sent to Armand after her death, explaining why she had made the choices she had. I think Dumas's last few lines about Marguerite being the exception, not the rule were quite true, and I also agreed with his view that while her lifestyle could not be condoned, we as a society assume that all of these type of women are cold and heartless, while this may not always be the case. A person can make the wrong choices in life when they are young, and try to redeem themselves, but sometimes past situations prevent them from changing their lives, even though they desperately wish to do so. This applies to both men and women in many different types of circumstances: involvement in crime; drug or alcohol abuse; gambling; prostitution; financial problems; poor marriage choices; etc. And this is the fact, which exists in the whole society.
As far as the other characters in the book, I think Marguerite was right in saying that no one truly cared about her, but only wanted something from her, the only exceptions being Armand and Julie Duprat. Of course, the Comte de G. and Comte de N. wanted her body and appearance. The
Duke needed to “wake up and smell the coffee” and realize that she could never replace his dead daughter. If he truly cared, he could have helped her leave her lifestyle without “keeping” her himself. And lastly, Prudence was a blood-sucking leech who used Marguerite almost worse than the men. I also think she was jealous of the fact that Marguerite had so much more courage than herself and someone truly loved her.
Last morning, when tiding my bookshelf, I took this book out of the shelf, and a dried flower flew away from the book. It was pale blue, very transparent, with thin fine veins. a dried flower flew away from the book. It was pale blue, very transparent, with thin fine veins. I held it against the morning light and blew on it. The soft breeze carried it away. Camille is just like the camellia, she could never escape from the destiny of withering. But it wasn’t her fault; it’s because of the evil of Capitalism and the hideousness of that society.
Suddenly, I remembered a saying: “Women are like the flowers”. Those pretty women are like those beautiful flowers; their delicate beauty makes people feel they are the miracle of life. However, even the God envies their beauty. It seems that beautiful women always have tragic endings. As we are normal persons, even we can see the hideousness of humanity that results in their fate of withering, we can at most ask quietly in our hearts: Where have those beautiful flowers gone? Where have they gone?
The Life And Adventures Of Robinson Crusoe
It seemed to be such a coincidence that the night after I finished reading The Life And Adventures Of Robinson Crusoe, I was to dine in a restaurant distinctly related to the book itself. This restaurant was no other than the famous American-styled “Friday ’s. ” The reason for mentioning this restaurant is quite straightforward to all the gentlemen, ladies and children who have read the novel and enjoyed it, which is the fact that this restaurant was, most likely, named after the American Native in Robinson Crusoe, called Friday. This restaurant offers very exceptional service, for instance when the waitresses are asked to order dishes they kneel rather than stand, which, unlike the other restaurants I have been to, makes it easier for the customers to hear them speak. Moreover, Friday’s friendly services to the customers help them to make better choices when ordering dishes. I remembered when I went to Friday ’s last time; the waitress kindly described the items on the menu with precise details. It turned out that the combo I initially wanted was designed to be shared among a large group, not to be eaten by one person. I think this restaurant shows many commendable features similar to that of Friday. Friday brought emotional warmth to the people around him with his appealing personality. I think it was this personality that affected Crusoe and made him say that he loved Friday when Crusoe didn ’t express love for his parents, brothers, sisters, or even his wife. “When he espied me, he came running to me, laying himself down again upon the ground, with all the possible signs of an humble, thankful disposition, making many antic gestures to show it to let me know how he would serve me as long as he lived.” This was what Friday did after Crusoe had rescued him from the two savages chasing him. It was easy for me to see why Crusoe had loved Friday. After sometime, Crusoe and Friday were to rescue Friday’s father. When Friday reunited with his father, the scene was easy to move anyone: “It would have moved anyone to tears to have seen how Friday kissed him, embraced him, hugged him, cried, laughed, halloed, jumped about, danced,
sung; and then sung and jumped about again, like a distracted creature. It was a good while before I could make him speak to me.” This is my favourite chapter in the whole book. It is hard to see why Friday is an ex-savage when he can have personalities more praiseworthy than many civilized people, viz. Crusoe himself. “When he (Friday went to him (Friday’s father, he would sit down by him, open his breast, and hold his father’s head close to his bosom, half an hour together, to nourish it; then he took his arms and ankles, which were numbed and stiff with the binding, and rubbed them with his hands.” Furthermore, Friday’s expression of loyalty in asking Crusoe to kill him rather than leave him is more heartfelt than anything Crusoe ever says or does.
Crusoe, on the absolute contrary, seems incapable of deep feelings, as shown by his account of leaving his family—he never shows any emotions. After a moving lecture from Robinson’s father about his future, he still decided to follow his own wandering ambition. Careless was he about the wishes of his parents to keep him alive and prosperous, as he was the only child left in the family. When he came back from the island which he had lived on for twenty eight years, he found that it had been too late to tell his parents that he was still alive, but yet again he did not feel sorry for them; he also did not feel sorry for the two people who had to live in misery for nearly thirty years under the allusion all of their sons were dead. He had the same feelings for his wife: when he was married, he said it was “not either to my disadvantage or dissatisfaction”, implying that it was also neither to his advantage nor his satisfaction. Moreover, after his wife died, Robinson did not think of looking after the three children they had, but went back to the island, which he had lived on for twenty-eight years. It was on this trip which Robinson Crusoe revisited “His Island ” as he called it. I feel that Robinson ’s indifference to his family is almost emotionally cruel.
Before had clearly shown the contrast between Crusoe’s and Friday’s personalities, as when Friday, in his joyful reunion with his father, displayed far more emotion toward his family members than Crusoe, whereas Crusoe never mentions missing his family or dreams about the happiness of seeing them again. I think Defore is very successful in introducing Friday as part of the novel, it makes the whole novel seem much more complete and gripping to the reader, as well as proving that Defoe’s ideology of racism is civilized unlike many other Europeans at that time; natives and savages are not worse than others but can perhaps even be more modern and civilized. Those are the reasons of why I like The Life And Adventures Of Robinson Crusoe and Friday.
如何度过大学生活英文作文【二】
This is a story about a special and unreserved woman who has been exposed to a hostile environment but continuously and fearlessly struggling for her ideal life. The story can be interpreted as a symbol of the independent spirit.
It seems to me that many readers’ English reading experience starts with Jane Eyer. I am of no exception. As we refer to the movie “Jane Eyer”, it is not surprising to find some differences because of its being filmized and retold in a new way, but the spirit of the novel remains----to be an independent person, both physically and mentally.
Jane Eyer was a born resister, whose parents went off when she was very young, and her aunt，the only relative she had，treated her as badly as a ragtag. Since Jane’s education in Lowwood Orphanage began, she didn’t get what she had been expecting——simply being regarded as a common person, just the same as any other girl around. The suffers from being humiliated and devastated teach Jane to be persevering and prize dignity over anything else.As a reward of revolting the ruthless oppression, Jane got a chance to be a tutor in Thornfield Garden. There she made the acquaintance of lovely Adele and that garden’s owner, Rochester, a man with warm heart despite a cold face outside. Jane expected to change the life from then on, but fate had decided otherwise: After Jane and Rochester fell in love with each other and got down to get marry, she unfortunately came to know in fact Rochester had got a legal wife, who seemed to be the shadow following Rochester and led to his moodiness all the time ----Rochester was also a despairing person in need of salvation. Jane did want to give him a hand, however, she made up her mind to leave, because she didn’t want to betray her own principles, because she was Jane Eyer. The film has finally got a symbolist end: Jane inherited a large number of legacies and finally returned. After finding Rochester ’s misfortune brought by his original mad wife, Jane chose to stay with him forever.
I don’t know what others feel, but frankly speaking, I would rather regard the section that Jane began her teaching job in Thornfield as the film’s end----especially when I heard Jane’s words “Never in my life have I been awaken so happily. ” For one thing, this ideal and brand-new beginning of life was what Jane had been imagining for long as a suffering person; for another, this should be what the audiences with my views hoped her to get. But the professional judgment of producing films reminded me to wait for a totally different result: There must be something wrong coming with the excellence----perhaps not only should another section be added to enrich the story, but also we may see from the next transition of Jane’s life that “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you would get.”
What ’s more, this film didn’t end when Jane left Thornfield. For Jane Eyer herself, there should always be somewhere to realize her great ideal of being independent considering her fortitude, but for Rochester, how he can get salvation? The film gives the answer tentatively: Jane eventually got back to Rochester. In fact, when Jane met Rochester for the first time, she scared his horse and made his heel strained, to a certain extent, which meant Rochester would get retrieval because of Jane. We can consider Rochester’s experiences as that of religion meaning. The fire by his frantic wife was the punishment for the cynicism early in his life. After it, Rochester got the mercy of the God and the love of the woman whom he loved. Here we can say: human nature and divinity get united perfectly in order to let such a story accord with the requirements of both two sides. The value of this film may be due to its efforts to explore a new way for the development of humanism under the faith of religion.

人生，始终充满战斗激情。
——惠特曼
你也许想过：生命是宝贵的，人生很短，那人的一生应该怎样度过呢？我确实也思考过这个问题。
我认为：人的一生，绝对不能虚度！
首先，每个人在年轻时应当励志。
孙中山先生说过：“吾志所向，一往无前，愈挫愈奋，再接再厉”如果我们有了志向，那么我们也就有了奋斗的动力，同时又有了青春活力。
《格言联璧》中有这样一断话：“志之所趋，无远勿届，穷山复海不能限也。志之所向，无坚不入，锐兵固甲，不能御也。”一个有志向的青年人，才算得上一个真正的`青年人！孔子十五岁励志做学问，三十岁有所成就。
我们绝对要有志向，要有对未来的目标，而不是“当一天和尚撞一天钟”。
现在网络上流行一个词，叫“佛系”。
我们应该佛系吗？答案当然是否定的！我们青年人必须斗志昂扬！我们要为自己而活，为自己而励志，也要为祖国而活，为祖国而励志！唯有这样，我们的生命才是值得的，我们才没有白白浪费这大好时光。
有了志向，就要付诸行动。
我们绝对不能纸上谈兵，光是空想。
而奋斗，是无止息的，生命不息，奋斗不止。
比如如果你励志做一名科学家，你就需要从小学、初中开始好好学习，考上好高中，进而考上好大学。
而有一个误区：考上大学就不需要努力了。
实则不然，我们需要不断提升自己，让自己更加优秀，学无止境。
如果我们一直奋斗下去，无论年龄如何，总是有活力的。
人活着，应当修养品格。
罗曼。
罗兰说过：“没有伟大的品格，就没有伟大的人。”佛桑德斯说过：“品格能决定人生，它比天资更重要。”一个人只有有了高尚的品格，才能立身处世，才会受人尊敬。
一个拥有如金子般闪闪发光品格的人，心里也是敞亮的，心情也是快乐的。
我读过《钢铁是怎样炼成的》，最喜欢里面的这句话：“一个人的一生应该是这样度过的：当他回首往事的时候，他不会因为虚度年华而悔恨，也不会因为碌碌无为而羞耻。”所以我为了不虚度一生，会立下志向并为之奋斗，并修养品格。
少年们，青年们，未来将是我们的时代！愿我们每个人都能不虚度年华！

餐桌上的爱
奶奶在老家，一听说“我”这个许久不见到的“大孙子”今天上午要到这儿了，立马失去了往日的愁思，高兴得溜到厨房，磨亮了刀子，又是鸡，又是买饮料，忙活了大半个时辰，刚忙活完，擦了把汗，便坐下来休息，板凳还没坐热呢，又听到了我那可爱的声音：“奶奶！我回来啦！”奶奶又高兴地跑了出去，把我接进屋来，一见时间不早了，便说：“开饭喽！”话音刚落，就将我报道了椅子上，我便喝起了饮料，爷爷拿出了他的“五粮液”喝上了几杯。趁着我上厕所，爷爷奶奶将鸡汤中几块骨头捞了出来，放在自己的地方，又将我这儿的一部分骨头弄到自己这儿，又夹了一块鸡肋，等我回来后，装做吃得津津有味，还时不时的念叨：“快吃呦！不然要被吃光喽！”我一听，急得连忙一口气吃了两块。
这不是白酒
一天，我拿着装了雪碧的杯子对爷爷说：“爷爷，来点雪碧吧！”爷爷说：“我喝白酒。”我便想：这东西有雪碧好喝吗？
有一次，我和爷爷去赶集，听见两个六旬老头儿在谈话，具体说什么已记不大清，只记得站右边的拿着一瓶白酒对另一个说：“侃！牛盘山二锅头！我儿子买给我的'，很贵嗒！而且还很辣！”另一个说道：“我不信！除非你给我尝尝！”“切！就知道你会说这句话，我才不给呢.”于是，我又想：白酒里没有辣椒呀，为什么他们说辣呢？于是，一股强烈的愿望在我的心中生根、发芽——尝白酒！
终于有一次好机会，我蹑手蹑脚地走向那瓶白酒，然后小心翼翼地打开盖子，用舌尖小心地碰了一下酒，“咦？怎么没味？”我感到奇怪，好奇心牵引着我，终于，我壮着胆子喝了一口……没感觉，又喝了一口，然后使出浑身解数去努力地感受着，总算感受到了这一丝的辣味，“着白酒和白开水差不多嘛！”现在我才知道，爷爷在酒里加水喝，时装做给我看的。我感到了一丝愧疚。
意外的惊喜
在老家呆了好久，终于要离开了，在离开的前一天，我和爷爷去最后一次上街赶集了。在买东西时，一辆酷酷的玩具车映入我的眼帘，我很想要，爷爷说：“大孙子，买了这个就没钱买菜了，以后再买吧。”我便依依不舍得离开了。爷爷买完菜后，手上紧紧捏着36元钱——玩具车的价格。
下午，爷爷有一阵子不在家，奶奶说是给我去买零食了，要留着回昆山的路上吃。
我和爷爷分别了，奶奶与我回昆山了，临走时，爷爷用“贪婪”地目光紧盯着我，想要将我牢记在心……在车上，我找零食时，看到了那天我在超市看中的那辆36元的玩具车，我捧着玩具车，流下了一行行晶莹的泪珠……
那一段在老家度过的时光，我永生难忘！
