1. 簡愛
Oliver Twist, one of the most famous works of Charles Dickens』, is a novel reflecting the tragic fact of the life in Britain in 18th century.
The author who himself was born in a poor family wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks of those cruel criminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneath the narrow and dirty streets in London.
The hero of this novel was Oliver Twist, an orphan, who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime. He suffered enormous pain, such as hunger, thirst, beating and abuse. While reading the tragic experiences of the little Oliver, I was shocked by his sufferings. I felt for the poor boy, but at the same time I detested the evil Fagin and the brutal Bill. To my relief, as was written in all the best stories, the goodness eventually conquered devil and Oliver lived a happy life in the end. One of the plots that attracted me most is that after the theft, little Oliver was allowed to recover in the kind care of Mrs. Maylie and Rose and began a new life. He went for walks with them, or Rose read to him, and he worked hard at his lessons. He felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime and hardship and poverty.
How can such a little boy who had already suffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is the nature of goodness. I think it is the most important information implied in the novel by Dickens-he believed that goodness could conquer every difficulty. Although I don』t think goodness is omnipotent, yet I do believe that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded.
For me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person. Goodness is to humans what water is to fish. He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person. On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, 『The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose』, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person. People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself.
To my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity. They look down on people』s honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted. As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others. On the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit. In their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility. If they cannot get profit from showing their 『kindness』, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down. They are one of the sorts that I really detest.
Francis Bacon said in his essay, 『Goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin.』
That is to say a person without goodness is destined to lose everything. Therefore, I, a kind person, want to tell those 『vermin-to-be』 to learn from the kind Oliver and regain the nature of goodness.

Wuthering Heights——《呼嘯山莊》
You'll pass the churchyard, Mr Lockwood, on your way back to the Grange, and you'll see the three graverestones close to the moor. Catherine's, the middle one, is old now, and half buried in plants which have grown over it. On one side is Edgar Linton's, and on the other is Heathcliff's new one. If you stay there a moment, and watch the insects flying in the warm summer air, and listen to the soft wind breathing through the grass, you'll understand how quietly they rest, the sleepers in that quiet earth.
您回畫眉山莊的路上會經過教堂墓地,洛克伍德先生,您可以看見靠近荒原的三個墓碑。中間凱瑟琳的已經很舊了,被周圍生長的雜草掩蓋住了一半。一邊是艾加•林頓的,另一邊是西斯克里夫的新墓碑。如果您在那兒呆一會兒,看著在溫暖夏日的空氣里紛飛的昆蟲,聽著在草叢中喘息的柔風,您就會知道在靜謐的泥土下,長眠的人在多麼平靜的安息。

The Scarlet Letter——《紅字》
The founders of a new colony, whatever Utopia of human virtue and happiness they might originally project, have invariably recognised it among their earliest practical necessities to allot a portion of the virgin soil as a cemetery, and another portion as the site of a prison. In accordance with this rule, it may safely be assumed that the forefathers of Boston had built the first prison-house somewhere in the vicinity of Cornhill, almost as seasonably as they marked out the first burial-ground, on Isaac Johnson's lot, and round about his grave, which subsequently became the nucleus of all the congregated sepulchres in the old churchyard of King's Chapel. Certain it is that, some fifteen or twenty years after the settlement of the town, the wooden jail was already marked with weather-stains and other indications of age, which gave a yet darker aspect to its beetle-browed and gloomy front. The rust on the ponderous iron-work of its oaken door looked more antique than any thing else in the New World. Like all that pertains to crime, it seemed never to have known a youthful era. Before this ugly edifice, and between it and the wheel-track of the street, was a grass-plot, much overgrown with burdock, pig-weed, apple-peru, and such unsightly vegetation, which evidently found something congenial in the soil that had so early borne the black flower of civilised society, a prison. But, on one side of the portal, and rooted almost at the threshold, was a wild rose-bush, covered, in this month of June, with its delicate gems, which might be imagined to offer their fragrance and fragile beauty to the prisoner as he went in, and to the condemned criminal as he came forth to his doom, in token that the deep heart of Nature could pity and be kind to him.
新殖民地的開拓者們,不管他們的頭腦中起初有什麼關於人類品德和幸福的美妙理想,總要在各種實際需要的草創之中,忘不了劃出一片未開墾的處女地充當墓地,再則出另一片土地來修建監獄。根據這一慣例,我們可以有把握地推斷:波士頓的先民們在谷山一帶的某處地方修建第一座監獄,同在艾薩克.約朝遜①地段標出頭一塊壟地幾乎是在同一時期。後來便以他的墳塋為核心,擴展成王家教堂的那一片累累墓群的古老墓地。可以確定無疑地說,早在鎮子建立十五年或二十年之際,那座木造監獄就已經因風吹日曬雨淋和歲月的流逝而為它那猙獰和陰森的門面增加了幾分晦暗凄楚的景象,使它那橡木大門上沉重的鐵活的斑斑銹痕顯得比新大陸的任何陳跡都益發古老。象一切與罪惡二字息息相關的事物一樣,這座監獄似乎從來不曾經歷過自己的青春韶華。從這座醜陋的大房子門前,一直到軋著車轍的街道,有一片草地,上面過於繁茂地簇生著牛蒡、茨藜、毒莠等等這類不堪入目的雜草,這些雜草顯然在這塊土地上找到了共通的東西,因為正是在這塊土地上早早便誕生了文明社會的那棟黑花——監獄。然而,在大門的一側,幾乎就在門限處,有一叢野玫瑰挺然而立,在這六月的時分,盛開著精緻的寶石般的花朵,這會使人想像,它們是在向步入牢門的囚犯或跨出陰暗的刑徒奉獻著自己的芬芳和嫵媚,藉以表示在大自然的深深的心扉中,對他們仍存著一絲憐憫和仁慈。

A Tale of Two Cities——《雙城記》
They said of him that it was the most peaceful face ever seen there. What passed through Sydney Carton's mind as he walked those last steps to his death? Perhaps he saw into the future...
'I see Barsad, Defarge, the judges, all dying under this terrible machine. I see a beautiful city being built in this terrible place. I see that new people will live here, in real freedom. I see the lives for whom I give my life, happy and peaceful in that England which I shall never see again. I see Lucie when she is old, crying for me on this day every year, and I know that she and her husband remember me until their deaths. I see their son, who has my name, now a man. I see him become a famous lawyer and make my name famous by his work. I hear him tell his son my story.
It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far far better rest than I go to, than I have ever known.'
人們談論他說他的臉是在那種地方見過的最平靜的臉。當西德尼·卡登邁著最後的步伐向死亡走去時,他的腦海中想到了什麼呢?也許他看到了未來……
「我看到巴薩德、德法熱、法官們都在這個可怕的機器下面死去。我看見一個美麗的城市正在這片可怕的土地上建立起來。我看到新一代的人民將在真正的自由中生活。我看到我為之付出生命的人們,他們幸福安寧的生活在我再也見不到的英國。我看見路西年老的時候,每一年的這一天都會為我哭泣,我知道她和她的丈夫會一直到死都記著我。我看見他們的兒子,有著和我一樣的名字,現在長成了一個男人。我看見他成了一位的律師並通過他的工作而使我揚名四方。我聽見他給他的兒子講起我的故事。
我做的是一件很好的事。它遠遠好過我所做的所有的事。它將是一個很好的長眠,遠比我所知道的要好。」
7. 有哪些英文名著值得讀的
1、《熱與塵》Heat and Dust
作者:[英]露絲·普拉瓦爾·傑哈布瓦拉
介紹:五十年,兩代女性,印度的溽暑與煙塵中,相異而別樣的愛與糾葛。英國文學最高獎項布克獎獲獎作品。
(7)每周名著閱讀英語擴展閱讀:
1、要想提高英語,有一項內容是萬萬不可忽視的—單詞。不管你在「聽說讀寫」下了多少苦功夫,只要詞彙量少,那便很難有質的進步。所以想要提高英語的第一點便是「背單詞」。
2、這里給大家簡單介紹下三種核心背單詞法。
(1)閱讀記憶
顧名思義,閱讀記憶指的是通過閱讀英文文章與資料來記憶單詞。在閱讀過程中,可以按照將生詞圈出、反復研讀句子、勾畫片語、了解替換詞彙、搞定熟詞辟義(如husband名詞作為丈夫、動詞作為節儉地)的順序對單詞進行記憶。
優點:能通過語境,從文章中了解單詞實際及具體的用法;印象深刻;比較有趣
缺點:不能在短期內快速增加詞彙量
(2)詞根、詞綴、詞源、字母學規律
英語單詞中大約有三分之二的單詞含有詞根詞綴,通過詞根詞綴來記憶可以解決掉大部分單詞。通常情況下,一個詞的前綴表示肯定、否定、數字以及方向;後綴確定詞性;而詞根則表示該詞的意義。相比之下,詞源與字母學規律的記憶更適用於單音節詞彙的記憶。
優點:短期內能迅速突破單詞數量;有效記憶
缺點:難以使用到自己的語句中;記憶過程枯燥;容易忘記
(3)聯想
編故事、編口訣、利用諧音法等聯想方式幫助記憶詞彙。如前段時間網路上流行的thank you(三克油)、twohands(偷漢子)等,都屬於聯想記憶的范疇。
優點:避免記憶詞彙時出現枯燥與乏味的狀態
缺點:不是所有單詞都能使用這一方式記憶
4、背單詞很重要的一點就是反復,每天都要將之前背過的單詞再復習鞏固一遍,不然很容易在刷完一遍後發現真正記住的沒幾個詞。

My hobby is reading. I read story books, magazines, newspapers and any kind of material that I find interesting. This hobby got started when I was a little boy. I had always wanted my parents to read fairy tales and other stories to me. Soon they got fed up and tired of having to read to me continually. So as soon as I could, I learned to read. Soon I could read simple fairy tales and other stories. Now I read just about anything that is available. Reading enables me to learn about so many things that I would otherwise not know. I learned about how people lived in bygone days of magic and mystery. I learned about the wonders of the world, space travel, human achievements, gigantic whales, tiny viruses and other fascinating things of our world. Books provide the reader with so much information and facts. They have certainly helped me in my daily life. I am better equipped to cope with living. Otherwise I would go about ignorantly learning things the hard way. So I continue to read. Besides being more informed about the world, I also spend my time profitably. It is indeed a good hobby. 我叫劉帥跇,我的父母希望我能人如其名,憑借真才實學「瀟灑走世界」。
人們常說:人小鬼大。我雖然入學年齡小,但我一直嚴格要求自己,積極向上,關心班級,熱愛集體,入學六年來,年年被評為學校的「三好學生」、「優秀幹部」和「學習小標兵」。
我的性格活潑開朗 、 樂觀向上,是一個陽光女孩。我的學習成績優異,卻不是一個「書獃子」。通過競聘,我連續三屆當選為學校少先大隊的大隊委員及大隊長,並且積極「參政議政」, 成為 老師的得力助手。我的愛好廣泛:小提琴 、 古箏 、 乒乓球 、 舞蹈 、 聲樂 、 繪畫 、 書法等等,它們不僅使我的業餘生活多姿多彩,而且不斷增強我的自信心與榮譽感:小提琴和古箏均獲得了九級證書,在葫蘆島市首屆少兒聲樂、器樂大賽中奪得一項金獎和一項銅獎。在葫蘆島市青少年乒乓球錦標賽上取得第四名的好成績。我既是遼寧省首屆小歌手大賽的第三名,參加了遼寧電視台的演出,又獲得了葫蘆島市「故事大王」的稱號。
我喜歡讀書,歌德曾說過:「讀書是和高尚的人談話。」 高爾基爺爺也告訴我們:「熱愛書籍吧,因為它是知識的源泉。」我在學齡前就開始閱讀兒童版的「四大名著」,在媽媽的引導下,我正在鑽研兒童版的《資治通鑒》和《論語》。我也喜歡英語,要「瀟灑走世界」,當然少不了這個法寶。我還是葫蘆島市廣播電台「少兒芳草地」欄目的特約小記者,每周都要到電台錄制節目。
雖然眾多的愛好和社會活動擠佔了我的大部分業余時間, 但是這並沒有成為我停滯不前的借口。「書山有路勤為徑」,我不僅各科成績在學校名列前茅,還在 2005 年全國小學生奧林匹克英語競賽中一舉奪魁,獲得一等獎。對了,中英文演講也是我的強項,每次都是前兩名,了不起吧!
我每時每刻都對自己充滿信心,雖然取得了不少成績,但從不驕傲。我很善於交流,也喜歡交朋友;我喜歡音樂,也喜愛小品;我喜歡卡通,也喜愛武俠;我既看還珠格格,也看法制在線 …… 唉!我真是一個矛盾的多面體。不過,這樣你們大家才能看到一個多姿多彩的我啊!
今年我已是畢業班的學生了,學習任務會更加繁重,但是我仍然會滿懷熱情地承擔起少先大隊大隊長的重擔,用我的聰明才智為實驗二小錦上添花,讓同學們的校園活動更加豐富多彩!
