《远大前程》英文读后感作文 1I think there are three themes revealed in the novel Great Expectations.
1.women are fragile. That is not because those women are in lack of will, but that they need surviving abilities and that of self-survival and struggle against destiny. They always turn to men. That can be called “hero saving the beauty”. This notion originated in the Greek tales but is still adopted successively. The only difference between them lies in the plot and structure. Estella is adopted and trained to break men?s hearts by Miss Havisham. Havisham revenges men and marries Estella to an unworthy guy though Pip deeply loves Estella. Nothing can be bitterer than see his lover married to another guy for a man. Pip really fell into the despair of losing Estella. However, Estella suffers a lot and begins to regret for her initial choice for her spouse and begins to treasure.
2.Facing destiny, women are physically and intellectually inferior to men. Actually it does not mean they have an inferior intelligence, but that it seems so. Or we can say that both men and women have the same potential of intelligence, but women never show a lot. God creates everyone equally, but not everyone is granted the same approaches to success or achievements. Women are restricted to families, which restricts them from showing a lot. They can cook food well, which is one standard for their excellence but not the one for male. The novel goes this way since it implies the male consciousness. The ordinary intelligence of women in marriage and love is exposed completely. Havisham is abandoned on her wedding day, but she keeps the room like the day she got married, while on the other hand she tries every means to revenge men. Bearing these two conflictive thoughts in mind, Havisham certainly fails to live her own life out of the control or influence from male.
3.The discipline for women ]. A feminist De Bufuwa says: “One is called woman because she is ?made? not ?born?.” Culturally woman is the product of society and the result of its strict restrictions. Those women who do not obey the disciplines are not regarded as gracious or good women by social criteria, which emphasizes on families, the responsibilities for their husbands and their dependence on men. In Great Expectations, Estella and Havisham?s misfortunes are closely attached to love and marriage. They try to revenge men and but they cannot leave men. Estella leaves Pip, but at last she comes back to him. And Havisham keeps thinking about her marriage day and her husband. So in Dickens?s novel, women are decent on surface, but failed in heart.
Every period has an outstanding feature, which make descendants linger in mind. To learn this novel can help us in understanding better women?s efforts to stand up. Society presses public to believe that maleplays a dominant role. Havisham can symbolize a feminist but what then? She needs a male accompany. Her ending somewhat is tragic but Estella harvests through a long time, but anyway she wins in depending man and leading a pleasant life.
《远大前程》英文读后感作文 2Recently, I have finished reading Great Expectations, which is widely considered as the
masterpiece of Dickens. The historic background of this book is Victorian Period which was the time when British was governed by Queen Victoria. The hero of the book is Pip, who was living in a blacksmith family. Someday, he met Magwitch, who was a convict, and he helped him. To show his gratitude, Magwitch gave Pip a good fortune and Pip led a totally different life after he got the money. However, Pip lost all of his money and fame because of his enemies’ plot at the last and become ordinary people at the last.
Dickens is famous for his novel such as Great Expectations, the Tale of Two Cities, Oliver Twist and so on. He always creates some people in lower class and show their different qualities. In Great Expectations, he tried to show us the conflict between different classes in Victorian Period by telling us the story of Pip. After Pip got the money, he left his friends and family to city, and then he learned to raise his social state. However, he was a child born in a blacksmith family and there’s a wide gap between him and the upper class. Finally, he lost all of his great expectations and went back to his hometown as ordinary people. Fortunately, he met his lover, Estella, in Satis House and they left there together at the end of the story.
In the book, my favorite character is Joe, Pip’s brother in law. He was a blacksmith and belonged to the lower social class. However, he possessed some good qualities that made him noble. For example, though Joe didn’t know any word, he thought highly of Pip when Pip tried to write him a letter. What’s more, Pip’s sister always considered Pip as the burden of their family but Joe always believed that his brother can become successful. No matter how unkindly he was treated, Joe was always family to others. Undoubtedly, it’s Joe’s noble quality that prevents Pip from becoming someone snobbish.
In my opinion, the story of Pip is really attractive while the writing style is also special. For example, Dickens used simile and metaphor for many times in his book. When Joe visited Pip, Dickens wrote that Joe had taken his hat as a bird’s nest with egg in. I think it’s hard to show the inner world of characters as well as feeling because those things are really abstract. On the other hand, if we write it directly, that may be boring and childish. And by using simile, Dickens transforms the abstract feeling into visual language, with which we can use our imagination to enjoy the story much more easily. I think that we can also make good use of Dickens’s outstanding skills to improve our writing.
After reading “Great Expectations”, many people complained that the class difference will always result in tragedy and they think that we should try to destroy those barriers. However, I think the massage that Dickens wants to deliver is that we should always be friendly, warm-hearted and optimistic. With these qualities, we can always lead a happy and comfortable life like Joe even though we don’t have much money.
《远大前程》英文读后感作文 3Class one Student No.10 Name: Anna Wang Great Expectation was written by Charles Dickens (1812-1870), one of the most popular writers of all the time, who created some of the best-known characters in English literature. Great Expectation is similar to David Copperfield in that it is the story of a boy growing up.
Pip has lost his parents when he was fifteen years old. He was brought up by his sister and her husband--Joe Gargery, a blacksmith who takes Pip on as an apprentice, teaches him his trade and makes friends with him. One day before Christmas, when Pip went to the churchyard where his parents were buried, he met an escaping convict-- Abel Magwitch. Pip brought cakes for the hungry man, which touched Abel deeply, although he was caught by police. After the Christmas, Pip was invited to play with Estella, a beautiful girl adopted by Miss Havisham. Miss Havisham was the richest man in the village. But she was very strange. She was dressed a bridal veil all the whole life after her fiancé left her at the wedding day, taking her a large amount of property. So she lived in the revenge and hated all the men. She treated Estella as a tool to take revenge on all man. When Pip met Estella, he loved her, so did Estella. But Estella knew she was just a tool to carry out the revenge plan of Miss Havisham, so she pretended to be proud, indifferent and look down upon Pip- a relative of a poor blacksmith, which broke Pip’s heart. As a consequence, Pip was determined to become a real gentleman who is in possession of money, good manners, luxurious life and a great expectation for Estella’s sake. Under the help of a stranger who donated a lot of money to him, Pip left Joe and the village, and went to London to live a luxurious life to learn to how to become a real gentleman. Pip started to waste money, look down upon other poor people, even including Joe, his brother-in-law and best friend! Gradually, Pip lost himself in the whirlpool of money, although he has had a large number of debts. As the same time, Estella has become more and more beautiful, graceful and brilliant. She walked in the crowd of men and married one of them as the Miss Havisham’s wish, which really tore Pip into pieces. And, as the same time, the mysterious benefactor of Pip came out. He is Abel- the escaping convict whom Pip has helped. When he escaped from the prison again, he earned much money and wanted to pay back Pip in that way. But Abel soon was caught by police and died. The properties he gave to Pip also were confiscated by police. Pip fell from the heaven to hell. He couldn’t stand it. As a result, he had a serious ill.
After receiving a letter describing the bad situation of Pip, Joe came to London to look after Pip in spite of the bad attitude Pip ever towards him. After recovering, Pip realized his wrong. He decided to be a gentleman by his own endeavor. So he came back to the small village and spared no efforts to make business with his friend--Herbert. Several years later, Pip met Estella again at the old house of Miss Havisham. After knowing her husband has died and the real reason why Estella didn’t choose him before, Pip made a proposal to her. At last, the two lovers were in together and Pip found his real great expectation at the end.
When I finished reading the novel, I also take consideration to the question “what a real great expectation is?” In my opinion, great expectation not means money, luxurious life provided by others, even the benefactors are your parents. It is our own dreams that we want to realize by our own efforts. Great expectation may be the further study, a respectable degree, a good job, a warm family or something else. But we must know that our future and great expectation must be mastered by our own. We should working for them, fighting for them, even dying for them, whatever. Only when we got what we want by our own endeavor, can we say we have had a great expectation.
《远大前程》英文读后感作文 4Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was the most famous novelist of the Victorian era in England, the most important classical writer in the history of English literature after Shakespeare, and one of the most outstanding representatives of British critical realism writers. He created a wealth of works throughout his life and made unique contributions to the development of realism novels in Britain and Europe.
Great Expectations "is one of the most representative works of Dickens late period. Edgar Johnson highly praised this novel, stating that" the structure and language of Great Expectations are the most perfect among all Dickens works. "This novel tells the story of a young man who dreams of pursuing an illusory and elusive" Great Expectations, "but ultimately his fantasy is shattered. The novel vividly depicts how, due to his pursuit of money and high society life, the once innocent and kind protagonist Pip gradually becomes vain and ungrateful. The appearance of his "benefactor" forces him to face reality again, and in a series of changes, he ultimately returns to the beauty of human nature; During Pips journey from a boy with shallow aspirations to becoming a truly profound and meaningful gentleman, Dickens dynamically explores the changes in good and evil in human nature. In this novel, he uniquely depicts the universal themes of youth growth in 19th century literature, and deeply criticizes sin and greed, capitalism, and the corruption of human nature by money. The novel also created many vivid character images, who together forged the success of this masterpiece.
《远大前程》英文读后感作文 5Great Expectations "is a long novel completed by Dickens in his late creative period.
My initial contact was with high school English textbooks. The English teacher explained to us the grammatical structure between words and sentences, circled the subject verb object in long sentences, and vividly explained the excerpt to us. Adding a touch of artistic atmosphere to the tense senior year life.
This is a great work with profound social significance and strong practical significance.
The protagonist of the novel, Pip, is an orphan who grew up at his sisters house. His initial dream was to become a blacksmith like his brother-in-law.
When Pip was working at the landlord Havishams house, he fell in love with the landlords adopted daughter Estella, which aroused his desire to become a superior. Estellas biological father fled and was accidentally rescued by Pip. The fugitive who made a fortune abroad sponsored Pip to receive a higher education in London and gave him a sum of money. Soon after, Estella married someone else and became a fugitive.
Also arrested due to the incident, Pip, who was full of ambition, suffered a emotional blow and his property was confiscated, so he had to wander overseas to make a living. Later, Pip returned to his home country, Estellas husband passed away, and the two troubled lovers finally came together, leaving the landlords decadent old house.
When the temptations of money and status intertwine into a persons life, they either sublimate or fall. Life is long and short, everything will pass and leave its mark. Even if ruthlessly thrown into the valley of life like Pip, perhaps this is the starting point of another mountain peak.
《远大前程》英文读后感作文 6Last semester, our teacher of British History in Film and Television showed us a movie called Great Expectations. A while ago, I borrowed this book from the library and read it carefully. After reading it, I have many thoughts.
In this book, the protagonist Pip is an orphan. If it werent for a chance invitation from Miss Havisham to meet the indifferent Estella, his wish might just be to become a blacksmith. But from then on, his dream of becoming a gentleman was constantly entangled in his heart. Later, he got $20, went to a cloth store to make a gentlemans outfit, and went to London to live in Huberts house. He began to become vain. So much so that when his brother-in-law came to see him in shabby clothes, he felt ashamed. As a result, his life in London left him heavily in debt and did not get better. The relatives who sponsored him to come to London brought him back to childhood memories, and he realized how happy his original life was, all because of his vanity.
After reading this book, I fell into contemplation. I felt sorry for Pips loss of a poor and happy life due to vanity. At the same time, I kept telling myself not to abandon what I originally had because of vanity and pursue dreams that were like a bucket of bubbles that could break with a rub. Cherish what you have and not be influenced by others, because those who influence you may be harming you.
《远大前程》英文读后感作文 7The Chinese and English versions of Great Expectations were found in my husbands bookshelf, and I read them carefully under the name of Charles Dickens. It took two weeks of spare time to finish reading. Reading a few sentences of English before going to bed every night gradually calms my heart in the story, leading me into a peaceful and leisurely state. It can be said that this is a great bedtime book.
The narrative and description at the beginning of the story are extremely ordinary, but as I read further, I find the plot more exciting and the ideas cleverly conceived. Especially when one mystery after another is revealed, it makes people suddenly realize and cannot help but exclaim in amazement.
Pip, who was timid and innocent in his childhood, met a queen like girl. He began to look down upon his birth and living environment. He is looking forward to his great future and dreams of becoming a Londoner, a true gentleman. But his inherent kindness also led him to secretly help his friends. When learning that your benefactor is a fugitive, do your best to protect him, even if you lack money, and no longer use your benefactors money. In the end, he lived an ordinary and happy life through his own efforts.
This book shows us that the environment can change a persons destiny, but human nature also affects the environment. Everyone dreams of having a great future, but being able to live an ordinary life through ones own efforts is a kind of happiness!
The wonderful idea is the highlight of this novel. The story revolves around Pip, connecting numerous characters and reflecting the different realities of society. Just like Lao Shes "Rickshaw Boy", the narrative and description never leave the male protagonist, but still appear novel, exciting, and rich in flavor.
《远大前程》英文读后感作文 8Among the few English original works I have read (Cowherd, Tess, Pride and Prejudice, Small Town Devils, etc.), Dickens "Great Expectations" is the best.
From a linguistic perspective, there are vivid parallelism and inverted sentence structures; Subtle and meticulous psychological description, very precise and beautiful adjectives.
Due to space limitations in the plot, it is naturally not possible to go through twists and turns, but the protection of the persons identity and Joes marriage really scared me.
In addition, the portrayal of the characters personalities is truly vivid: Pips youthful maturity and emotional sensitivity; Herberts enthusiasm and sincerity; Joes honest discussion; Wemmicks work at home is two faced, Mr. Jaggers shrewdness, efficiency, and even a little bit cold-blooded; The neurosis brought by Miss Havishams dark past and Estellas aloofness and arrogance.
Emotionally speaking, Pips feelings towards Estella can be understood as what you cant get is the best . From the initial contempt and insult, to the later arrogance and disdain, and finally to letting go of everything and becoming friends, this should be the main emotional thread in the article. Regarding the understanding of "future", does becoming an educated gentleman and entering high society mean happiness and a bright future? In the end, it was all empty, and we still had to rely on workhard to dowell.
If you want to choose an English novel to read, then Great Expectations is really not to be missed.
《远大前程》英文读后感作文 9Everyone has heard of the British writer Dickens! He is a famous great writer! I greatly admire him, so I have read several of his books. Not long ago, I bought another copy of Great Expectations and after reading it, I was very touched.
Great Expectations "mainly tells the story of orphan Pip, who was raised by his sister and brother-in-law and lived a poor but warm life. In order to win the love of the beautiful and arrogant wealthy woman Estella, he decided to become a wealthy gentleman in high society. By chance, he once helped a fugitive become wealthy and secretly sponsored him to study in London, where he entered the upper echelons of society. Pip seemed to have a broad road ahead, with his great future waiting for him. So he began to despise his own background and his relatives who were struggling in life. After being rejected from pursuing Esther, the fugitive who supported him was arrested and all his property was confiscated. Pip was once again abandoned by the upper class. He learned from his mistakes, reconsidered his life, and finally realized what true life is. After many years, Pip, who was self-sufficient, returned to his hometown and gained his hard-earned family and love.
The whole novel is written truthfully and profoundly, with ups and downs in the plot, full of infectiousness, especially the section where the "bright future" disappears in the blink of an eye, and the image of middle-aged Pip who has gone through ups and downs in human relationships afterwards, which I will never forget. It also taught me a life lesson: when we achieve success in life, we must not be proud. Perhaps one day, you will be like Pip, with a bright future ahead of you and disappear in a flash. And from Pip, I see what kind of life and what kind of future is truly a great future. Its the same in our lives, you must remember it!
Great Expectations "is a good book, you should also read it!
《远大前程》英文读后感作文 10Great Expectations "is a late work of Dickens, and I feel it is also his most mature work. The title of this book made me realize that it was ironic after reading it.

At the beginning, when Pip was still a child, he was so naive, easily trusting, and compassionate. However, Pips fate was to meet a queen like girl who would deeply influence his life. He began to look down on himself and feel inferior about his family environment and background. "And when I think of this mansion, there is no sunshine in my heart! At the same time, I am even more disgusted with my own behavior and look down on my family." This is a great way to blend emotions. In such a terrifying room, Pip completely looks down on himself. Is he possessed by a demon.
After a long period of time, the characters began to change, and under the authors pen, the entire piece was written very naturally. In the end, everyone lived an ordinary and real life. What a perfect ending!
In Chapter 17, it is said that the enemys attack was ineffective and they suppressed a group of prisoners. Among these prisoners happened to be Old Uncle Zhong. The captain of Xiaogazihe District was very angry when he saw it. At this moment, the district captain thought of leading the enemy to the west, where the firepower was strong and he could be rescued by chance. However, there was a cabinet stronghold there. Xiaogazi thought to himself, "Let me go," and with the consent of the district captain, he went.
In this chapter, the author fully embodies Xiao Gazis bravery, which is highly admirable.

《远大前程》英文读后感作文 12The first time I read a complete English novel, even though I didnt read the entire English version. Great Expectations "is one of the works of the famous British critical realism novelist Dickens. Reading this book Great Expectations was purely a chance encounter, and before reading it, my own state was not good, very restless, confused, and negative. Just like the protagonist Pip in the book, I urgently hope to change my current state, hope for a bright future, hope for someone to help me get rid of poverty, hope for wealth, hope for myself to live the life I want, and hope that the people I care about can also care more about me. At least, it can change ones current unsatisfactory state! Reading, reading, I realized that I was too similar to the protagonist Pip in the text. In front of people of status and status like Havisham and Estella, I longed for the respect of others.
Yes, Pip in the early stages of Great Expectations is too similar to his past self or even his current self. In the early stage, Pip disliked his sister who had nurtured him; When I visited Miss Havishams house and was humiliated by Miss Estella, Pips feelings reminded me of his childhood peers bullying him. If I could be tolerant of my peers carelessness when they were young, perhaps my vanity would not be so strong. After reading this novel, I realized that I had never transcended "vanity". Thinking about my current impetuous state, why I have come to where I am today, why I have no goals in my life so far, why I feel that the path is not what I want, why I feel bored in my work, and where my happiness lies in these years and now. Perhaps all these difficulties are due to ones own vanity, which has hurt ones supposed happiness and led to repeated inability to grasp the present. We should seize the present, always be grateful, and strengthen our inner strength.
