简爱读后感英文版 篇1

One hundred and sixty years ago, when Charlotte Bronte created Jane Eyre, she could have never thought that it would become eternal. As a matter of fact, in the world of today, there are tens of

thousands of Jane Eyre, each living in a reader’s heart, breathing with him the same air and sharing with him the same happiness and sorrow. Her rich mental world has become an inexhaustible resource of spiritual power. From Jane Eyre, people who are timid and shy get confidence and self-respect; people who feel imprisoned get independence and freedom; people who are lonesome get love and care. However, what I get from Jane Eyre is the courage of inner questioning and self exploring.

Who is Jane Eyre? As the story extends, more and more things are added to the answer. From the beginning, we know that Jane is a young orphan raised by Mrs. Reed, her cruel, wealthy aunt. From her experience at the Lowood School, we found Jane a plain-featured but intelligent and honest girl. Her courage to fight with all the hardships, oppression and inequality makes a deep impression on us. When she meets Rochester and St. John, Jane shows us both her passion for love and her sticking to her principles of justice, human dignity and morality.

While we are getting to know more about Jane Eyre, she is also exploring herself. When she leaves Gateshead, the little girl doesn’t know what to expect in the future. She has endured so much unfair treatment that all she desires is freedom. However, when Jane gets freedom, she finds herself yearning for new experiences, which can change her life of loneliness and neglect. She follows her innermost feelings and accepts a governess position at a manor called Thornfield, where she falls head over heels in love with her employer, Rochester.

Then it comes to the most important decision that Jane has to make in her life. Rochester already has a wife, but Jane wonders how she could ever find another man who values her the way Rochester does. To leave, or to stay, Jane is caught in a dilemma. At this moment, Jane closes her eyes and looks into her soul. I can well remember the words she says to herself: “I care for myself. The more solitary, the more friendless, the more unsustained I am, the more I will respect myself.” Guided by her soul, she flees temptation and leaves Thorfield. The second test comes when St. John urges Jane to accompany him to India as his wife. In many ways, the proposal tempts her, but it also means sacrificing passion altogether and devoting herself wholly to principles. Where to go? Again, Jane softly touches her innermost feelings. Who am I? What am I longing for? Is it pure freedom, or passion of love, or principles? From Gateshead to the Lowood, from the Lowood to Thorfield, from Thorfield to Moor House then to Ferndean, Jane has finally got the answer. Having gone through all these years, Jane no longer goes to extremes. What she is seeking for throughout her life is a kind of perfect balance between moral duty and earthly pleasure, between obligation to her spirit and attention to her body. Jane knows herself well and thus can have the strength to hold her own bliss in hand.

Jane Eyre sets us a perfect model of inner questioning and self exploring. How about us?

Looking back on the development of Jane Eyre’s character, we can see clearly the important role inner questioning and self exploring has played. “What you are you do not see, what you see is your shadow.” Self-knowledge is a hard process that everyone must go through. There are times when we are overwhelmed by all kinds of desires and lose ourselves in the crowded world. There are times when we

just follow what others are doing and abandon our own dreams. To be specific, when asked why you are at school, how many students can honestly say that their answer well reflects their soul?

Actually, it is the question that my Grandpa asked me one day. We were working together in the garden, talking about my school life. I told him that as senior three students, we often have to burn midnight oil. “You are working hard!” he smiled, and then looking me in the eye, he asked, “But do you know what you are studying for?” I stammered. At that moment, I was completely at a loss. What am I studying for? Is it simply for getting a good score in exams or entering a good university and then finding a good job and leading a comfortable life? I feel confused. Grandpa patted on my shoulder, “You know something? Every brilliant life is different. What kind of life do you yearn for, my dear?”

I didn’t answer Grandpa. Only then did I realize how little I knew about myself. I have never before questioned myself what I really want. I thought about Jane Eyre. She is always exploring and questioning herself. That is why she is able to make her perfect life.

Jane Eyre gives me the strength. Now it’s time for me to look into my soul to see who I am and what I am longing for. I will no longer wander around, the moment my soul answers me with her deepest voice. I will fix my eyes on the road ahead, my own road, and keep going. I will hold my brilliant life in hand.

简爱读后感英文版 篇3

ane Eyre,is a poor but aspiring,small in body but huge in soul,obscure but self-respecting girl.After we close the covers of the book,after having a long journey of the spirit,Jane Eyre,a marvelous figure,has left us so much to recall and to think:

We remember her goodness:for someone who lost arms and blinded in eyes,for someone who despised her for her ordinariness,and even for someone who had hurt her deeply in the past.

We remember her pursuit of justice.It’s like a companion with the goodness.But still,a virtuous person should promote the goodness on one side and must check the badness on the other side.

We remember her self-respect and the clear situation on equality.In her opinion,everyone is the same at the God’s feet.Though there are differences in status、in property and also in appearance,but all the human being are equal in personality.

We also remember her striving for life,her toughness and her confidence…

When we think of this girl,what she gave us was not a pretty face or a transcendent temperament that make us admire deeply,but a huge charm of her personality.

Her story makes us thinking about life and we learn much from her experience,at least,that is a fresh new recognition of the real beauty.

简爱读后感英文版 篇4

Oliver Twist, one of the most famous worksof Charles Dickens’, is a novel reflecting the tragic fact of the life inBritain in 18th century.

The author who himself was born in a poorfamily wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks ofthose cruel criminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneaththe narrow and dirty streets in London.

The hero of this novel was Oliver Twist, anorphan, who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime. He sufferedenormous pain, such as hunger, thirst, beating and abuse. While reading thetragic experiences of the little Oliver, I was shocked by his sufferings. Ifelt for the poor boy, but at the same time I detested the evil Fagin and thebrutal Bill. To my relief, as was written in all the best stories, the goodnesseventually conquered devil and Oliver lived a happy life in the end. One of theplots that attracted me most is that after the theft, little Oliver was allowedto recover in the kind care of Mrs. Maylie and Rose and began a new life. Hewent for walks with them, or Rose read to him, and he worked hard at hislessons. He felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime andhardship and poverty.

How can such a little boy who had alreadysuffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is thenature of goodness. I think it is the most important information implied in thenovel by Dickens-he believed that goodness could conquer every difficulty.Although I don’t think goodness is omnipotent, yet I do believe that those whoare kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded.

For me, the nature of goodness is one ofthe most necessary character for a person. Goodness is to humans what water isto fish. He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person. On thecontrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘The fragrance always stays in the handthat gives the rose’, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and usefulperson. People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also getsgratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people hehas helped and himself.

To my disappointment, nowadays some peopleseem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity. They look down onpeople’s honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to bewarm-hearted. As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in troubleand seldom offer to help others. On the other hand, they attach importance tomoney and benefit. In their opinion, money is the only real object whileemotions and morality are nihility. If they cannot get profit from showingtheir ‘kindness’, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and evenhit 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 characterof the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, nobetter than a kind of vermin.’

That is to say a person without goodness isdestined 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.
