Jane Eyre, it’s one of my favorite English novels. Another one is Pride and prejudice. The two ladies, Jane and Elizabeth, are some kind of similar. Both of them are independent, long for true love, and defend against the old rules. They don’t have beautiful face, but they have beautiful minds.
When story began, Jane was a little girl living with her aunts and cousins. They didn’t like her, scolded her, treated her just like a nursemaid, and even locked her in the Red House. Later, she was sent to the Lowood School, where she met Helen, her friend. As time went by, the little poor girl grew up. Then she became a governess for a ten-year-old girl at Thornfield, where she met Mr. Rochester, her master. As a governess at Thornfield, she tasted the pleasures and pains of love. She fell in love with Rochester but had to leave him for some reasons. She found shelter at Moor House, where she focused on teaching and rejected Mr. River’s marriage. At the end, Jane returned to Thronfield after Mr. Rochester was blind. They have a quiet wedding:
“I know what it is to be love and be loved. No woman has ever been closer to her husband than I am to Edward. I am my husband’s life, and he is mine. We are always together, and have never had enough of each other’s company.”
Jane had a bad childhood, but it didn’t affect her much. She read books behind the thick curtain; she got education for eight years in poor condition; she was intelligent, sensible and wise. At the relationship with Edward Rochester, she was quite calm. The governess with her beautiful, pure and
frank soul, move Edward. Rochester was rich, clever but a little weird. Jane thought she didn’t really know him and never sure whether he was serious or joking. So she kept a distance with him. Fortunately, she came across the distance and expressed her love to Mr. Rochester:
“Do you think I can watch another woman become your bride? Do you think I’m a machine, without feelings? Do you think, because I’m small and poor and plain, that I have no soul and no heart? Well, you’re wrong! I have as much soul and heart as you. It’s my spirit that speaks to your spirit! We are equal in the sight of God!”
I think when you heard of these words, you would stand at Jane’s side definitely. And that’s love I long for. In our real life, there are many examples that ladies lose themselves and become dependent after marriage. They give up their careers and the husband and kids become their center. For another instance, some ladies get married to the man they don’t love but possess a lot. They regard their husbands as ATMs. For the former, they lose themselves in marriage; for the latter, they do exchange with marriage. Besides, some graduates fall in love with others due to loneliness. You can see such lovers break up upon several months. They do not take love seriously; they do not prepare to love somebody; even, they do not know what love is and how to love. They just pretend to know.
I’ve heard the words: who is a real man? A real man is the one you stay with but you can be yourself. When I was in high school, a Chinese poem
named To the Oak, impressed me a lot. I have to say, that’s the love I appreciate.

I recently read the long-admired "childhood in my college," a novel by Soviet writer gorky's most famous autobiographical trilogy.
This book mainly describes the difficult life experience of gorky himself in childhood, youth and youth. He was born at the age of four and lost his father at the age of four. His childhood was spent in his grandfather's house, and his grandfather often beat him. He is often ridiculed by others, but he does not let go, he does not complain, he is not sad, but he is willing to forge ahead with an enterprising heart. He had to sell his beloved book and leave the school class to buy medicine for his kindly grandmother. At the age of eleven, his mother died, and he became an orphan. In order to make a living, alisha was forced to enter the world. He had been a shoe-store boy, had been a baby-sitter, had been a dishwasher on a ship, had worked as a handyman in the holy works. He had done what the boss had done to him, and he had seen so many ugly things around him. But I'm glad that none of this has intimidated alisher, making him a stronger, braver, more upright person. Under the very miserable conditions of his life, he still loved literature and often went hungry and kept reading. He didn't get originally want to go to college, but I learned a lot in university of "social" famous university less than knowledge, broadened horizons, raise the consciousness, finally grow up to be a revolutionary intellectuals.
I admire the indomitable spirit of alyosha and admire the spirit of literature. Children also feel ashamed at the same time, we now have the care of their parents and teachers to teach, but due to lack of "wind and rain baptism," many of our classmates a little difficulty in learning life at ordinary times can be difficult to deal with. At the same time, many of us have good learning conditions, but we don't want to study hard. At the moment, I know what we should cherish this moment is perfect life, cherish this moment a good study time, following the example of golgi, strong and optimistic, strive forward, after be brought up.

"The happiness of man waits until the end, before he is born and before the funeral, no one has the right to say that he is happy" -- the self-ordering of yu hua's short story, "to live". I love this book, because every time when reading this book, I will feel all of the difficulties faced by actually doesn't consider as what, people are always so, if he did not feel the real pain, he would be naive to think he is facing great difficulties, so he was upset and frustrated. Reading this book gives me great courage to pursue the happiness I want.
"What is happiness? This is what a person is pursuing from life to death, which is also the value of a person's life, but there are still many people who can't find the happiness they want. And I read "living" after the feeling of the book to talk about my "happiness" some ideas!
What is life for? Or just live to live? Alive, is the most basic nature gives us the potential, the two simple words is full of desire for the life and the pursuit of happiness, but the reality is often gives us too much suffering, boring and mediocrity. And we have to bear it little by little, to take on the responsibilities that life has given us, and to find the flower of happiness that belongs to us after we have done it again and again. Because it is hard to come by, it is more eager and cherishing. Party name
On the edge of poverty, happiness can still be found, and behind the glamour, happiness may still be the same. Happiness lies not in the environment you are in, but in the state of mind you create, not in what you have, but in what you feel inside. To do things according to our own heart, happiness can be very simple, happiness is the heart of the achievement of our happy life.
There is nothing wrong with the pursuit of happiness, but we forget our blessings when we are in a hurry. We all seem to be in such a state at the moment: we are always busy, we are always on our way, we think we will be happy at some end. So in the pursuit of this cannot stop, we are deeply tired, but have never pursued the happiness we hoped for. This life is a process, if we are in a hurry, "the pursuit of happiness, but forget the little drops of life, so we are happy or not, all already did not have the feeling. So when you're running, slow down and enjoy the sights and people, you'll probably get something different.
There is no lack of beauty in life, only a lack of eyes to find beauty; There is no lack of happiness in life, just a lack of awareness of happiness. Let us fly the heart and feel the happiness!

one of the most interesting questions about gullivers travels is whether the houyhnhnms represent an ideal of rationality or whether on the other hand they are the butt of swift's satire. in other words, in book iv, is swift poking fun at the talking horses or does he intend for us to take them seriously as the proper way to act? if we look closely at the way that the houyhnhnms act, we can see that in fact swift does not take them seriously: he uses them to show the dangers of pride.
first we have to see that swift does not even take gullver seriously. for instance, his name sounds much like gullible, which suggests that he will believe anything. also, when he first sees the yahoos and they throw excrement on him, he responds by doing the same in return until they run away. he says, "i must needs discover some more rational being," even though as a human he is already the most rational being there is. this is why swift refers to erasmus darwins discovery of the origin of the species and the voyage of the beagle-to show how gulliver knows that people are at the top of the food chain. but if lemule gulliver is satirized, so are the houyhnhnms, whose voices sound like the call of castrati. they walk on two legs instead of four, and seem to be much like people. as gulliver says, "it was with the utmost astonishment that i witnessed these creatures playing the flute and dancing a vienese waltz. to my mind, they seemed like the greatest humans ever seen in court, even more dextrous than the lord edmund burke" . as this quote demonstrates, gulliver is terribly impressed, but his admiration for the houyhnhnms is short-lived because they are so prideful. for instance, the leader of the houyhnhnms claims that he has read all the works of charles dickens, and that he can singlehandedly recite the names of all the kings and queens of england up to george ii. swift subtly shows that this houyhnhnms pride is misplaced when, in the middle of the intellectual competition, he forgets the name of queen elizabeths husband.
swifts satire of the houyhnhnms comes out in other ways as well. one of the most memorable scenes is when the dapple grey mare attempts to woo the horse that guenivre has brought with him to the island. first she acts flirtatiously, parading around the bewildered horse. but when this does not have the desired effect, she gets another idea: "as i watched in amazement from my perch in the top of a tree, the sorrel nag dashed off and returned with a yahoo on her back who was yet more monstrous than mr. pope being fitted by a clothier. she dropped this creature before my nag as if offering up a sacrifice. my horse sniffed the creature and turned away." it might seem that we should take this scene seriously as a failed attempt at courtship, and that consequently we should see the grey mare as an unrequited lover. but it makes more sense if we see that swift is being satiric here: it is the female houyhnhnm who makes the move, which would not have happened in eighteenth-century england. the houyhnhm is being prideful, and it is that pride that makes him unable to impress gullivers horse. gulliver imagines the horse saying, sblood, the notion of creating the bare backed beast with an animal who had held mr. pope on her back makes me queezy .
a final indication that the houyhnmns are not meant to be taken seriously occurs when the leader of the houynhms visits lilliput, where he visits the french royal society. he goes into a room in which a scientist is trying to turn wine into water (itself a prideful act that refers to the marriage at gallilee). the scientist has been working hard at the experiment for many years without success, when the houyhnmn arrives and immediately knows that to do: "the creature no sooner stepped through the doorway than he struck upon a plan. slurping up all the wine in sight, he quickly made water in a bucket that sat near the door" .
