Reflections after reading "The Old Man and the Sea", "Morning Flowers and Evening Flowers", "Journey to the West", and "Water Margin"
Although the story of "The Old Man and the Sea" is short, it has a profound meaning. It tells the story of the old fisherman Santiago who finally found a heavy fish on the 85th day after not catching any fish for 84 consecutive days. More than 1,500 pounds of salmon, and began a three-day and three-night fight before the big fish finally came to the surface exhausted and was killed by him.
1000-word review of "The Old Man and the Sea"
p>. On the way back, he was repeatedly attacked by sharks. When he finally returned to Hong Kong, only the head, tail and a spine were left.
This is a classical tragic novel with profound implications and a symphony of heroism. Hemingway said: "I tried to describe a real old man, a real child, the real sea, a real fish and many real sharks. However, if I can write realistically enough, they can also represent many other things. "The old man Santiago described in the story is an unlucky man who hasn't caught a fish for 84 days, and other fishermen regard him as a loser. But this seemed to herald the beginning of a battle. Sure enough, on the 85th day, he really found a 1,500-pound salmon. Knowing that the opponent was stronger than him, he was still determined to fight to the end. He said to Big Fish: "I will stay with you to the end!", and finally won. After the old man worked hard to catch the fish, the test was not over. Because the fish was so big and long, he had to tie it to the side of the boat. On the return trip, the bloody smell of the big fish attracted shark attacks again and again. So he used all his personal means to fight back. The harpoon was taken away by the shark, and he tied the knife to the oar and stabbed it randomly. The knife broke, and he used a short stick. The short stick was also lost, so he used the tiller to hit it. Although all the fish and meat were bitten off, nothing could destroy his will. God seems to have taken pity on such a great old man. He brought misfortune to him again and again. In the end, his tenacious will failed to achieve good results. When he returned to Hong Kong, only the fish head, tail and a spine were left. bone.
Why didn’t Hemingway let the old man win in the end? Doesn't this better reflect the greatness of the hero? The old man’s story not only symbolizes the relationship between man and nature, but also the indestructible spirit of the entire human race. Although he failed in reality, he was a winner in spirit. His tenacious fighting spirit showed the nobility and dignity of man. Looking at all of life, who has not experienced failure? No matter how successful the person is. The reasons for failure can vary, but failure is always an unbearable blow. If you go to sea again, you will have hope of victory. I think this dangerous life environment and this tenacious attitude towards life are the reasons why this work becomes more and more attractive.
After reading it
"The Old Man and the Sea" 》Reflections after reading 1000 words》(). Life is an endless pursuit. In the story, the old man once said: "But people are not born for failure. A person can be destroyed, but he cannot be defeated." This sentence reminds me of Beethoven's "Destiny" Symphony", Beethoven once said: "I can be destroyed, but I cannot conquer." They illustrate the meaning of heroes and the meaning of life. This sentence in the article also clarifies the idea of the article: people must face failure bravely. From this aspect, this book is not a fable or a fairy tale, but a realistic work. Victory is no longer important in this novel. What is important is the value of a person's life. The old man dares to challenge the limit and surpass it again and again. We have to admire him. What he brings to mankind is a kind of self-confidence and a kind of strength. of spiritual power.
"The Old Man and the Sea" has given me a lot of life inspiration. What is failure? Failure means falling down and mustering up the courage to get up again. Fall down and get up again. Never lose hope in life and never lose your dream in life. What is a hero? A hero is a person who dares to face setbacks, challenge setbacks, defeat himself, and overcome setbacks. Only those who have the courage to fulfill their dreams that may have failed many times are considered heroes. I really like Hemingway's "The Old Man and the Sea", and I also understand that Hemingway's life also had many ups and downs. He experienced wars, diseases and mental torture. In fact, he survived bravely time and time again. Unfortunately, in the end, he chose to live in the future. He ended his life by committing suicide. Maybe he had his own reasons, but he went against the explanation of failure and hero in "The Old Man and the Sea", which is a pity.
Failure is not terrible.
The scary thing is that you give in to failure. Once you give in, all your dreams will not come true. This has a very important meaning in real life. I think life is like an old man going out to sea to fish, and he will face it bravely. Even if we do not succeed, we will not leave regrets in life because of our lack of effort. We will be strong in life, and our lives will be wonderful because of our efforts.
After reading the book "The Old Man and the Sea", I feel that I have gained the courage and strength to overcome difficulties. No matter how many thorns and setbacks there are in the future education road, I believe that as long as I have the old man’s unyielding quality, I will definitely be a strong person in life. "The Old Man and the Sea" is a book worth reading carefully, just like Gorky's "Petrel", it can help us gain courage and strength before the storm comes. It allows us to face with confidence no matter what difficulties we encounter, persist to the end, never shrink back, and shout to the world "I am a hero!"

< p>"Morning Blossoms Plucked at Dusk", just like its alternative name, this popular masterpiece was written by Mr. Lu Xun in his twilight years. When I am old and tired, when I recall every bit of my childhood, I still have the same taste as before, and I think it must have a different flavor. The flowers that bloom in the morning will look more delicate in the morning light. When picked when the sun sets, they will lose their beauty and fragrance when they are just in full bloom. However, the sunset adds a charm to them, with a subtle fragrance. Under the guidance of the wind, it makes people think about it. It's like tasting a delicacy, chewing it carefully, and the innocence of childhood remains in your heart, slowly spreading.200 words:
Mr. Lu Xun is an outstanding thinker of the Chinese nation. Many of his works are not only a portrayal of his unique life process, but also a reflection of the psychological process experienced by the entire nation. Reading "Morning Blossoms Plucked at Dusk" allowed me to step into the window of Lu Xun's own memory. From the author's own ideological level, I could watch the writer's childhood memories and youth process.
Of course childhood is beautiful. From the author's poetic description of the Baicao Garden, I seemed to follow his mood happily back to that childlike, green, and vibrant yard, experiencing the carefreeness of a child getting along with nature. No worries.
Even if you go to school and have a rigid teacher who reads some difficult sentences, you can't suppress the romance and innocence of children breaking off plum blossoms and looking for cicadas to shed.
The author’s childhood pleasures also included the desire and satisfaction of painting and watching plays.
I envy the author for having such a colorful childhood, which we children who grew up in the city cannot experience. Everything in the article is so fresh and vivid to me.
Not only that, after reading this book, I also understood the value of friendship, the stupidity of the Qing government at that time, and the hatred of the people towards the government, which really benefited me a lot.

"Picking Up Flowers in the Morning and Evening" is a classic work by Lu Xun. I read this book during the winter vacation, and it touched me very much.
Lu Xun’s works can be said to be unique. His works are neither secretive nor full of gorgeous words and phrases. But it attracts readers more, as if it is telling you a story.
For example, Fan Ainong’s eyeballs are more white than black, and he always seems to look at people with contempt. For example, "But I still saw the word "big" placed all over the bed." This is Lu Xun's special technique when describing people's appearance, characteristics and habits. He can vividly express a person's characteristics and add humor.
Whether it is praise or criticism of others or various opinions about that person, Lu Xun wrote them openly. Therefore, I prefer his articles. For example, "Ah Chang and the Classic of Mountains and Seas". The content is roughly like this: My eldest mother is my nanny. At first, I hated her, especially her Qieqiechacha, and she slept very poorly, but she also knew many interesting etiquettes, which made me impatient. . Afterwards, she told me the cruel story of "Changmao" oppressing the people. I admired his great power. Then, when I desperately longed for "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", Ah Chang bought it for me. I was in awe of her again. Finally, she passed away, and I prayed for her silently. This article highlights Ah Chang's simplicity through my changing attitude towards her time and time again.
"Morning Blossoms Picked Up at Dusk" is very thought-provoking. It reflects various bad habits of feudal society: there are stories about people eating blood steamed buns and eating human flesh.
People's superstition, old-fashioned, foot-binding, mutual deception, etc. were strongly criticized by Lu Xun, and I couldn't help but feel sad for those people.
Today, China still has many bad habits. I think I will change them and build a better motherland.
When it comes to "Journey to the West", everyone will definitely remember some of the fragments by heart. I am the same. I once again took out the slightly yellowed "Journey to the West" on the bookshelf and couldn't put it down. After a cup of fragrant tea, I didn't even turn a few pages. Following Grandpa Wu Chengen's wonderful descriptions, I was attracted by the plot. I was deeply moved after reading "Journey to the West". The twists and turns of the plot and the bizarre experiences of Tang Seng and his disciples left a deep impression on me. The author of this book, Luo Guanzhong, tells readers the story of Monk Tang and the other three disciples who went through many hardships and conquered demons and went through ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties to obtain the true scripture. "Journey to the West" shows people a colorful world of gods and demons, and everyone is amazed by the author's rich and bold artistic imagination. However, any literary work is a reflection of a certain social life. "Journey to the West" is an outstanding representative of the novels about gods and demons. Through the illusory world of gods and demons in "Journey to the West", we can see the projection of real society everywhere. Sun Wukong is the first protagonist in "Journey to the West" and a very amazing hero. He has infinite abilities, is not afraid of anything, and has an unyielding spirit of resistance. He has the extraordinary demeanor of a great hero, but also has the disadvantage of loving compliments. He is witty, brave, witty and playful. And his greatest characteristic is his courage to fight. Dare to fight against the supreme Jade Emperor, and the reputation of the "Monkey King" will be known; Dare to fight against monsters and monsters, never let go of a monster with piercing eyes, never show mercy to monsters under the Ruyi Golden Cudgel; Dare to fight against all difficulties Fight, never retreat and bow your head. This is Sun Wukong, a glorious mythological hero. Sun Wukong's righteous, bold and indomitable fighting spirit and superb skills are the nemesis of monsters. His fearless spirit that sweeps away all monsters reflects the wishes and demands of the people. He represents a force of justice and shows the people's belief in victory over all difficulties. Speaking of Zhu Bajie, his ability is far inferior to that of Sun Wukong, let alone glorious and tall, but this image is also portrayed very well. Zhu Bajie is a comic figure. He is honest, honest, powerful, and dares to fight monsters. He is Sun Wukong's first right-hand man. But he is also full of problems, such as being fond of food, taking advantage of others, being a womanizer, and being afraid of difficulties. He often retreats and always thinks about Gao Laozhuang's wife. Sometimes he likes to tell lies, but he is clumsy and clumsy. He also said it was unreasonable; from time to time, he provoked Tang Monk to recite the tightening curse to make Sun Wukong suffer; he even hid some private money and stuffed it in his ears. He has many faults, which are the bad habits of small private owners. The author's criticism of Zhu Bajie's shortcomings is very harsh, but also well-intentioned. He is not a negated character, so people do not dislike Zhu Bajie, but on the contrary, they find him very real and lovely. Although his master, Tang Seng, does not have Sun Wukong's ability, Zhu Bajie's agility, Sha Monk's diligence, or White Dragon Horse's foot power, he has good conduct, can recite the scriptures, is not afraid of being "cut to pieces by a thousand cuts," and has a firm belief; Sha Monk and Bai Longma Although Longma doesn't have any great abilities, he is diligent and hardworking, and he is willing to be a good logistics person and does not want to be in the limelight. These four characters each have their own characteristics and personalities, which form a sharp contrast. This makes me have to admire the author's superb writing skills. Perhaps the author's ability to portray characters is his subtlety. Among them, my favorite is Sun Wukong. Because of his vast supernatural powers and superb skills, he protected Tang Monk all the way and successfully obtained the scriptures. He became a hero in my mind. Moreover, he also has a rebellious mentality and his brave spirit of daring to fight against powerful forces, which I admire very much. The book says that Master Tang Seng and his apprentice endured eighty-one tribulations, which reminds me of their persistence, fearlessness, and perseverance. This is indeed a spirit worth learning from. When I think about my failure to give up halfway and end at the end, I can’t help but feel ashamed why I couldn’t persevere like them in the first place. Maybe this is what I am missing, as long as I can finish something from beginning to end, no matter whether I succeed or fail, as long as I try my best, this is also a success for me! Because I did it and persisted until the end.
The book "Water Margin" tells the story of the 108 heroes headed by Song Jiang who gathered in Liangshanpo, were recruited by the court, and then defeated the Liao soldiers, and finally wiped out the rebels, but were murdered by traitors. A heroic story. After reading the whole book, there are only two words that linger in my mind: loyalty and righteousness. Loyalty means doing your best to your motherland, your relatives and friends around you. Song Jiang faced all kinds of threats. Under the temptation, he is still loyal to his motherland, which is loyalty; after Lin Chong was forced to go to Liangshan, Lin Chong's wife preferred death to the humiliation of Gao Qiu's son, and finally hanged himself. This is also loyalty. In today's society, I believe many Everyone can do the word "loyalty", but few people can do the word "righteousness". The word "righteousness" includes too much content. In "Water Margin", the 108 heroes are Brothers, go through fire and water for your friends, go through life and death, just for the word "righteousness"; to eliminate violence for the people, go through life and death, just for the word "righteousness". It can be seen that although a "righteousness" only has three strokes, sometimes But it takes a person's life to write it. In real life, almost anyone can give up their seat to someone, but not everyone can do it to save people in danger. Because it requires considerable courage, even It is the determination to exchange one life for another. Righteousness can be interpreted as justice. A person with a strong sense of justice is a person with noble spirit. How many heroes have sacrificed their lives for justice throughout the ages. Is it because they are not afraid of death? They work for justice , they can risk their lives for the truth, because their strong sense of justice clearly tells them what they should not do and what is worth fighting for with their lives. A person without a sense of justice will not understand these. Because his justice His senses have been swallowed up by numbness, the passion for struggle has been frozen, but his soul has been assimilated by some ugly things in society. I still clearly remember that there was a black man among the heroes in "Water Margin", he was reckless by nature and had a violent temper. , often conflicts with others over trivial matters, and even causes homicides. But he is able to see injustice and draw a sword to help, which makes those guys who are heartless. In real life, although there are no such thrilling events, " The word "righteousness" permeates our lives. To express loyalty to friends is a small righteousness. To treat people or things that you have never met with a righteous eye is a righteousness in a practical sense. Our Chinese nation is a As a nation of righteousness, when Japan invaded China, many revolutionary martyrs with lofty righteousness used their blood and determination to fight to the death to achieve today's prosperous motherland. Dong Cunrui sacrificed his life to blow up the bunker, and Huang Jiguang blocked the enemy's machine gun with his chest. These are the continuation of the righteousness of the descendants of Yan and Huang, and are the lingering glory in Chinese history. A person can not believe in God, but he cannot not believe in "holy". At present, the most important task of our youth is to bring our motherland Build more prosperity. Therefore, this is also the foundation of our national justice. Let us believe in this "sacred" and use our own hands to maintain this "sacred".
