英语的读书笔记 篇一

recently i have read a book named harry potter and the philosopher’s stone. it is a magical novel written by the english writer, j.k.rowline. because of the interesting story and the lively description, it is very popular to the readers all over the world. while reading the book, i was touched deeply. now i write it down and keep it as a reminder.

harry potter, a great man, was born with a scar looking like a lightning as a sign of fighting with voldemort, the most frightful bad wizard who killed harry’s parents. harry’s parents tried their best to protect him from voldemort. at that night, harry’s parents died, voldemort was hurt seriously and harry survived as a legend. the scar indicates the fierceness of the fighting and the greatness of love. because his parents both died, he was adopted by his aunt. his aunt’s family felt very bad about harry who came from a wizard family and his brother-in-law ， dudley, who was spoiled badly by harry’s uncle and aunt, always bullied him, so harry’s childhood was very miserable, and he had to live his birthday alone each year. just like this, harry grew up to 11 years old.

on harry’s 11-years-old birthday, an unusual thing happened and changed his life. he received an admission letter from the magic school, hogwarts. then hagrid, the keeper of keys and grounds at hogwarts, told him how his parents died ， and then brought him to diagon alley, the market for wizards. harry bought some necessary things for school there and started to find himself very famous. after the surprising experience, harry couldn’t wait going to school.

on the correct day, harry came to the magic school which looked like an ancient castle. to harry’s happiness, he made friends with a kind boy named ron weasley and a clever girl named hermione granger. but there was a boy named draco malfoy who was prideful and always picked a quarrel with harry. compared with staying in the aunt’s house, harry was much happier in school. he started to learn the magic which he never knew before and learned how to fly in the sky, how to use the basic conjuration, and even how to play the quidditch game. besides these things, harry received an invisibility cloak, the possession of his father, which made him free to any place.

but behind the peaceful situation, there seemed to be some kind of secret and horrible power around harry. the scar on his forehead hurt more and more frequently and painfully than any time before. harry, ron and hermione accidently found a big dog with three heads in a chamber on the third floor. the bank for wizards, gringotts, which was the safest place except hogwarts, was stolen. the

teacher of defence against the dark arts class, quirrel, always wore a big scarf on his head with no reason and made very disgusting smell. at last, harry, ron and hermione happened to find the secret that the philosopher’s stone which could relive voldemort was hidden in the chamber which the big dog with three heads was watching and doubt that professor severus snape would steal it for voldemort. so they hurried to the chamber and found the big dog sleeping with music. being more sure that someone wanted to steal the philosopher’s stone to relive voldemort, they kept on looking for it. with ron’s and hermione’s help, harry overcame all kinds of obstacles and finally came to the place alone where the philosopher’s stone was hidden. to harry‘s surprise, the person who wanted to steal the philosopher’s stone for vordemort was not professor severus snape but poor stuttering professor quirrel 。what was more horrible that professor quirrel had two faces, one for himself and the other for vordemort ，and that was why he always wore a big scarf on his head. vordemort lived off professor quirrel’s body and controlled him. at the last moment, harry got the philosopher’s stone and almost lost his life to protect it from being used by voldemort. fortunately, the president of hogwarts, dumbledore, came in time, saved harry and destroyed the stone. because of the brave action, harry and his friends won great honor from the school.

there is a proverb in china saying that ‘difficulty is like a spring. if you are strong, then it is weak. but if you are weak, then it is strong.’ facing all kinds of difficulties, harry didn’t run away from them but chose to conquer them bravely. he was the winner of life. life without difficulty dose not exist 。 it just likes that river without rock dose not exist. but because of the rock, the river can sing and looks more interesting. because of the difficulty, the life is more worthy to respect and experience. after reading the book, we should learn the integrity and bravery from harry potter. success belongs to the person who insists on his dream and never gives in to the difficulties. let’s strive together!

In this summer holidays, I read a book called < Great Expectations>， it was written by the Charles Dickens, one of the most famous English writers. He wrote lots of wonderful novels. This book is one of his compositions.

People always like to compare with their friends. It is a big foible of all the people. If other people have a lot of money, we also want to be rich. If all the people around us are poor ， we never mind that we are very poor, too. we will not ashamed because of our folly. This is a social problem.

If we never possess anything, we will not mind we lost some thing. Since we don’t want to be very rich ，we will not feel despond because poor.

The protagonist of this novel is Pip (Handel)。 His parents died when he was a baby. His sister had brought him up ‘by hand’。 His sister married to Joe Gargery, the village blacksmith. They didn’t have much money, and Pip never went to school to study. But he was often very happy 。Because all of his friends are like him. It isn’t very unfortunate to them, this is their lives. But by a chance, Pip helped a convict; he gave much food to him. Then he met Miss Havisham, a very strange old woman and she was very rich.

Four years later, Miss Havisham wants Pip to be removed from his home and educated as a gentleman who expects inherit a fortune when he grow up.

After hearing that 。 Pip started to despise his poor friends. He even feel ashamed because he live with the poor man 。 Pip’s ‘great expectations’ destroyed his life.

This novel told us that we cannot compare with others 。Don’t feel envy at the others money. And if one day you be very rich ， please don’t despise your poor friends.

英文读书笔记 篇三

I first read "Jane Eyre" in eighth grade and have read it every few years since. It is one of my favorite novels, and so much more than a gothic romance to me, although thats how I probably would have defined it at age 13. I have always been struck, haunted in a way, by the characters - Jane and Mr. Rochester. They take on new depth every time I meet them.。.and theirs is a love story for the ages.

Charlotte Brontes first published novel, and her most noted work, is a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story. Jane is plain, poor, alone and unprotected, but due to her fierce independence and strong will she grows and is able to defy societys expectations of her. This is definitely feminist literature, published in 1847, way before the beginning of any feminist movement. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the novel has had such a wide following since it first came on the market. It is also one of the first gothic romances published and defines the genre.

Jane Eyre, who is our narrator, was born into a poor family. Her parents died when she was a small child and the little girl was sent to live with her Uncle and Aunt Reed at Gateshead. Janes Uncle truly cared for her and showed his affection openly, but Mrs. Reed seemed to hate the orphan, and neglected her while she pampered and spoiled her own children. This unfair treatment emphasized Janes status as an unwanted outsider. She was often punished harshly. On one occasion her nasty cousin Jack picked a fight with her. Jane tried to defend herself and was locked in the terrifying "Red Room" as a result. Janes Uncle Reed had died in this room a little while before, and Mrs. Reed knew how frightened she was of the chamber. Since Jane is the narrator, the reader is given a first-hand impression of the childs feelings, her heightened emotional state at being imprisoned. Indeed, she seems almost like an hysterical child, filled with terror and rage. She repeatedly calls her condition in life "unjust" and is filled with bitterness. Looking into the mirror Jane sees a distorted image of herself. She views her reflection and sees a "strange little figure," or "tiny phantom." Jane has not learned yet to subordinate her passions to her reason. Her passions still erupt unchecked. Her isolation in the Red Room is a presentiment of her later isolation from almost every society and community. This powerful, beautifully written scene never fails to move me.

Mrs. Reed decided to send Jane away to the Lowood School, a poor institution run by Mr. Brocklehurst, who believed that suffering made grand people. All the children there were neglected, except to receive harsh punishment when any mistake was made. At Lowood, Jane met Helen Burns, a young woman a little older than Jane, who guided her with vision, light and love for the rest of her life. Janes need for love was so great. It really becomes obvious in this first friendship. Helen later died from fever, in Janes arms. Her illness and death could have been avoided if more attention had been paid to the youths. Jane stayed at Lowood for ten years, eight as a student and two as a teacher. Tired and depressed by her surroundings, Jane applied for the position of governess and found employment at Thornfield. The mansion is owned by a gentleman named Edward Fairfax Rochester. Her job there was to teach his ward, an adorable little French girl, Adele. Over a long period the moody, inscrutable Rochester confides in Jane and she in him. The two form an unlikely friendship and eventually fall in love. Again, Janes need for love comes to the fore, as does her passionate nature. She blooms. A dark, gothic figure, Rochester also has a heart filled with the hope of true love and future happiness with Jane. Ironically, he has brought all his misery, past and future, on himself.

All is not as it seems at Thornfield. There is a strange, ominous woman servant, Grace Poole, who lives and works in an attic room. She keeps to herself and is rarely seen. From the first, however, Jane has sensed bizarre happenings at night, when everyone is asleep 。There are wild cries along with violent attempts on Rochesters life by a seemingly unknown person. Jane wonders why no one investigates Mrs. Poole. Then a strange man visits Thornfield and mysteriously disappears with Mr. Rochester. Late that night Jane is asked to sit with the man while the lord of the house seeks a doctors help. The man has been seriously wounded and is weak from loss of blood. He leaves by coach, in a sorry state, first thing in the morning. Janes questions are not answered directly. This visit will have dire consequences on all involved. An explosive secret revealed will destroy all the joyful plans that Jane and Rochester have made. Jane, once more will face poverty and isolation.

Charlotte Brontes heroine Jane Eyre, may not have been graced with beauty or money, but she had a spirit of fire and was filled with integrity and a sense of independence - character traits that never waned in spite of all the oppression she encountered in life. Ms. Bronte brings to the fore in "Jane Eyre" such issues as: the relations between men and women in the mid-19 century, womens equality, the treatment of children and of women, religious faith and hypocrisy (and the difference between the two)， the realization of selfhood, and the nature of love and passion. This is a powerhouse of a novel filled with romance, mystery and passions. It is at once startlingly fresh and a portrait of the times. Ms. Bronte will make your heart beat faster, your pulse race and your eyes fill with tears.

我第一次读《Jane Eyre》是在第八年级，从那以后每隔几年读一次。这是我最喜欢的小说之一，对我来说不仅仅是一部哥特式浪漫小说，尽管我可能在13岁时就定义了它。我一直被一些人物、简和罗切斯特先生所困扰。他们每次见到我都会有新的深度……这是一个千古的爱情故事。

夏洛蒂·勃朗特最早出版的小说，以及她最著名的作品，是一部半自传体的故事。简是普通的、贫穷的、孤独的、无保护的，但由于她强烈的独立性和坚强的意志，她长大了，能够违抗社会对她的期望。这无疑是女权主义文学，在1847出版，在任何女权运动开始之前。也许这就是为什么小说从第一次上市以来就有如此广泛的追随者的原因之一。它也是最早出版的哥特式浪漫小说之一。

Jane Eyre是我们的叙述者，他出生在一个贫穷的家庭。她的父母在她很小的时候，小女孩死了，被派去与她的叔叔和阿姨里德在盖茨黑德生活。简的叔叔真的很关心她，公开地表达了他的感情，但列得太太似乎讨厌这个孤儿，溺爱她溺爱自己的孩子，却忽视了她。这种不公平的待遇强调了珍妮作为一个不受欢迎的局外人的地位。她经常受到严厉的惩罚。有一次，她那讨厌的表妹杰克和她吵架了。简试图保护自己，结果被锁在可怕的“红色房间”里。简的Uncle Reed刚才在这间屋子里死了，列得太太知道她对这个房间有多害怕。由于简是叙述者，给读者一个第一印象，孩子的感情，她被监禁的情绪状态加剧。事实上，她几乎像一个歇斯底里的孩子，充满了恐惧和愤怒。她一再称她的生活状况“不公正”，充满了痛苦。看着镜子，简看到了自己扭曲的形象。她看着自己的倒影，看到一个“奇怪的小人物”或“微小的幻影”。简还没有学会将她的激情归因于她的理智。她的激情仍在不停地爆发。她在红色的房间隔离是对她以后的隔离从几乎每一个社会和社区。这个强大的，美丽的书面场景从来没有移动我。

列得夫人决定把简带到洛伍德学校，可怜的机构，由Brocklehurst先生， 所有的孩子都被忽视了，除了犯错误时受到严厉的惩罚。在Lowood，简遇到了海伦·彭斯，一个年轻的女人，比简年长一点，他指导她与视觉、光和她的余生的爱。简对爱的需求是如此之大。这首友谊真的变得很明显了。海伦后来死于发烧，在简的怀里。如果对青年人给予更多的关注，她的病和死亡本来是可以避免的。简住在Lowood十年了，八个学生和两个老师。累了，在她周围的郁闷，简申请家庭女教师的地位和在桑菲尔德找到工作。豪宅是由一位叫爱德华·罗切斯特拥有。她的工作是教他的病房，一个可爱的法国小女孩，阿黛勒。在一个长时期的喜怒无常，神秘莫测的罗切斯特向简和她在他。这两个人形成了不太可能的友谊，并最终坠入爱河。同样，简对爱的需要也随之而生，她的热情也同样如此。她绽放。一个黑暗、哥特式的人物，罗切斯特也有一颗充满真爱的希望和简未来的幸福。具有讽刺意味的是，他把自己所有的苦难、过去和未来都带到了自己身上。

一切似乎并非在桑菲尔德。有一个奇怪的，不祥的女仆人，Grace Poole，生活和工作在阁楼的房间。她保持沉默，很少被人看见。然而，从第一天起，简就感觉到了晚上在每个人都睡着的时候发生的奇异的事情，一个似乎不认识的。人在疯狂地呼唤着罗切斯特的生活。简想知道为什么没有人去调查Poole太太。然后一个陌生男子拜访Thornfield和神秘消失罗切斯特先生。那天深夜，简被要求和那个男人坐在一起，而家里的主人在寻求医生的帮助。那个人受了重伤，因血液流失而虚弱。他在早上第一件事是坐在马车上，状态很糟。简的问题没有直接回答。这次访问将对所有有关人员造成可怕的后果。一个爆炸性的秘密将摧毁简和罗切斯特所做的所有欢乐计划。简将再次面临贫穷和孤立。

夏洛蒂·勃朗特的女主人公Jane Eyre，不得已与美或金钱增光，但她有火一般的精神和充满了诚信和

Jane Eyre in my eyes

Several years ago, when I was a little girl I have already read the novel Jane Eyre. At that time, I was attracted by the touching story. But today, after watching the movie, I was moved by Jane, the adamant, independent, brave and honest girl. Why did we say Jane was an adamant and independent girl? Let’s look at her childhood. Her parents died when she was a little girl, so she was brought up by her aunt Mrs. Reed, an acute and ruthless woman. Jane led a very bad life in her house. They treated her as badly as a ragtag. But Jane didn’t surrender. Later, she was sent to Lowood school，an orphan school. In there she didn’t get what she had been expecting——simply being regarded as a common person, just the same as any other girl around. Mr. Brocklehurste even asked Jane to stand on the chair and vilipended her in front of all the students. But Jane didn’t yielded. And her only friend Helen died, Jane was very sad, but she was not depressive all the time. Instead, she studied and worked energetically. At last, she became a teacher of logwood, and later became the family teacher of Adele. From her experience, we could found that Jane was independent; she changed her fate by herself. She suffered more than other girls at her age. She was independent both in physically and mentally.

Jane was brave. She dared to say no to Mr. Brocklehurst, cut her beautiful hair with Helen, and pull the horse for Mr. Rochester. What’s more, she dared to accepted Mr. Rochester’s love and pursuit of her own happy life. Though she said:“ Do you think because I am poor, obscure, and little. I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!—I have as much soul as you—-and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it was hard for you to leave me, as it is not for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh; it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as it both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God’s feet,。 In her opinion, everyone is the same at the God’s feet. God hadn’t given her beauty and wealth, but instead, God gave her a kind mind and a thinking brain. These words expressed complete1y Jane ’s rebellious spirit．She told him her own feeling, and emphasized that they were equal.

As we know, there was strict distinguish in social stratum at that time. Mr. Rochester was in the high society, but Jane was only a family teacher. They were in quite different social stratums. What’s worse, in that society，people’s sense of love was on thebasis of money．For the sake of money they could marry anyone even though the husband or the wife was an idiot on their eyes，

money was everything，money was marriage. But unfortunately Jane was very poor. That’s to say, Jane should receive much rumor from society. In fact, she didn’t afraid of it. On the contrary, she accepted with no hesitation. When she knew Rochester’s wife was dead and he was blind, she went to look after Rochester determinedly. She didn’t care about anything else. And I still remember at the party, all the people from the high society laughed at Jane, they looked down upon Jane. She kept silent though her heart was very exciting. And to their surprise, Miss Ingrain was proved to be a loser, Jane defeated her though Jane had no property and beauty．Jane’ s plainness， poverty, position and disposition were contrasted to Ingrain obviously．Jane drove away those aristocrats from competitive stage．High position and great wealth showed by noble class was put aside．Jane got glorious victory．

Jane was self-respected and self-love. When she knew Rochester had a mad wife and she was still alive. Jane left. She couldn’t bare an incomplete love. She left her lover Rochester with contradiction and pain. Though she still loved him very much. She chose another road, which was endless. She was kind and strict to the moral concept. She couldn’t accept herself do something against the morality. She was self-respect.

To sum up, Jane was a charming girl 。What she attracted us was not the beautiful face, lovely figure, and sweet voice 。But

her brave heart, intelligent brain and adamant character. So we didn’t surprise that Mr. Rochester chose Jane as his bride instead of Miss Ingrain. Because Jane was much mature and richer in soul. As a girl, I should learn from Jane. Especially in the materialistic society we should be in charge of our own fate. Don’t depend on others all the time. We should be independent 。Don’t lead a luxurious life and in hope of marring a rich man, thinking that your husband would change your fate, your social position. That’s silly. We should realize that only depend on your own struggle then you could really charge your fate. What’s more, we need to be self-respect and self-love. As far as I am concerned, as a girl if you don’t respect and love yourself, so how do you require others to respect you? In short, we need to learn from Jane Eyre.

英文读书笔记 篇六

The Scarlet Letter offers an extraordinary insight into the norms and behavior of the 17th century if American Puritan society. The basic conflicts and problems of its main characters, however, are familiar to readers in the present. The female protagonist, has borne a child out of wedlock and has been jailed for over three months and sentenced to wear a symbol of her adultery, a scarlet "A" on her dress at all times. It concerns about the moral, emotional and psychological effect of the sin on people in general. It’s not simply a love story or a story of sin. The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne uses the scarlet letters to symbolize the harshness of Puritan society, showing how they brand sinners for life.

The story happened in Boston about 200 years ago. It narrates love affairs between three persons. The punished woman. Hester Prynne and his husband. Who called himself Roger Chillingworth 。 He is an old misshapen man and a doctor. Hester does not love him at all. Another man is a young minister, Dimmesdale, who has a high position among ministers and is highly respected among his people in town. Hester and Dimmesdale love each other. But their love is forbidden in that time 。 It is sinful. Due to this,Hester is punished by society with a letter A on her chest, which considered an evil, a shame.

In this novel, the mainline seems to be around the letter A. Hester is brave enough to face the cruel reality. She is always with a mind of courage. She has been alone with her child for so long ， with litter communication. Shame! Hopelessness! Loneliness! Hester has to wear the letter A day after day, seven years as for punishment and ill fame.

When a woman has lived through a difficult experience, her character changes a great deal. If she be all tenderness, she will die. If she survive, the tenderness will leave her 。Hester’s charitable deeds and quiet humility have earned her a reprieve from the scorn of the community. The letter on her chest represents her work on earth ， always helping others, without expecting any thanks. Never afterwards, does that scarlet letter leave her chest. The townspeople no longer view the letter as a punishment ， but rather as representing her great strength and bravery and thy say it means "Able"。

But Arthur Dimmesdale, his sin against Hester and Pearl is that he will not acknowledge them as his wife and daughter in the daylight. He keeps his dreadful secret from all those under his care in the church for seven years for fear that he will lose their love and will not be forgiven. He is too weak to admit his sins. He suffers from mysterious heart trouble, seemingly caused by psychological distress. What’s worse, he is an advisor to the townspeople about their sins.

After Mr. Dimmesdale’s death ， no one changes more in appearance than Roger Chilling worth. All his strength and energy has been used to harm his patient 。 This unhappy man has made his aim in life to add to the suffering of the young minister. When the evil old man no longer has such a purpose, the devil takes him back to the hell 。 It is a curious subject of observation, however, whether hatred or love are not of the same place. Each takes a great deal of emotion from one person. The two feelings seem basically the same, expect that one is smiled upon by God, while the other is worshipped by the devil.

英文读书笔记 篇七

Today, I read "eternal eyes" and "if I give me three days of light" I think that though man is dead cant be reborn. But the perfect organ can be passed down, and our organs can live, and we can experience a new life. In this way, our death is meaningful. Some people say to them, but after the death of the body but to the crematorium. At the end of the day, there was no meaning. Not only missed them, even good organs also wasted. If I die, I will donate my perfect organs to those who need help. As long as they are happy, I will be happy, too.

If you give me three days of light, this article tells me: Helen Kellers concern for health and the desire for a pair of perfect eyes are very strong. Although he was unfortunate to lose sight and hearing, his understanding of life was far more than ordinary people. A blind man and a deaf man have become a famous writer! Helen Kellers life is full of courage and strength. We should learn from him and learn the spirit that he is brave enough to face difficulties and challenges, and this spirit will be passed on forever. Let the spirit of Helen Keller record a glorious history.

Yes! People tend to be like this: things that have something no longer cherish, things that do not have to pursue. Maybe we should put the external things a little bearish, think now happy wonderfull life, think today is the last day of life, that day will be a wonderful crosssubstantially.

Finally, I would like to answer Helen Kellers question: if I have only three days of light, I will let my eyes look at the beautiful world. The three days of this precious day will be the best memories of my life.
