圣诞颂歌英文读后感 篇1
A Christmas Carol is one of the most famous works of Charles Dickens, who is a Criticism writer in the 19th century. His works mainly reflect the reality. So I like his works very much.
Charles Dickens was born in 1812, England. He had many difficulties during his childhood. However, these experiences enriched his life, at the same time, supporting many writing materials for his writing. He wrote more than 20 novels in all, reflecting the hate to the money and the sympathy to the common people. His works, such as Great Expectations, a Tale 0f Tw0 Cities, were affected by many readers.
This novel told a people who regard money as important as his own life---Scrooge. Even on Christmas Eve, he was also quite mean to everybody. There are five chapters in all. Chapter 1 introduced scrooge’s character and Marley, his friend’s ghost. The language was very beautiful and active. I like this part best. As followed there was a part of word to describe Scrooge: he was a hard man with money, hard as a stone. He was a secret self-contained man; friendless and alone .the coldness inside him froze his old face. His eyes were red. His thin lips were blue. Cold seemed to stiffen his way of walking. The hair on his head and above his eyes was white, white as snow. He carries this coldness with him always wherever he went. This part illustrated Scrooge was a cold man. He grasped the money tightly. As the following story, Scrooge refused his nephew invitation to have the dinner with his family. And he always scolded the Christmas is humbug. He didn’t believe the existence of Christmas and didn’t want to share his happiness and money with others. He had dinner in an inn and then went home. He had rooms in a house which had once belonged to Marley. Scolded sat quietly on the coach. But suddenly there is a big knocker on the door. It was Marley’s ghost. The ghost was bound by the heavy chain and told Scrooge its tragic fate. The ghost told Scrooge that three spirits will come to Scrooge and then faded away.
From chapter 2 to chapter 4, it talked about the three spirits. The first spirit stood for the past. It showed the happy times in the past of Scrooge. In the past Scrooge always said “Merry Christmas” to whoever he met. He loved life and enjoyed everything in his life. In this part the spirit also showed the first work of Scrooge. His boss, Fezziwig, treated them very well on Christmas. But Scrooge gradually changed. He loved money more than his lover. So his lover parted with him. It’s the money that made Scrooge lost many things. The second stands for the present. in this part , Scrooge is a greedy man . He has no mercy to everything and waste of his time. The third spirit stands for the future. In this part, it showed that Scrooge regret what he had done. And Scrooge was impressed at last. He understood money is not the only thing that is worth to reserve. Love and care were important too.
At the last chapter, that is chapter 5, Scrooge changed himself and gave mercy to the poor. And he had dinner with his nephew.
All in all, this story has a perfect end. Form this story, I realized that in this world, money is not everything. We also need love and help.

This is a cartoon about the change. Masters of Scrooge is a miser out of the name, the film at the beginning of the many plots have proved this point. For money, he could reluctantly sacrificial fee and then pay the partner from the eyes of the dead, remove the two pence; his nephew in the face of well-meaning nephew greeting satire hypocrisy, and that there is no money to make money also sent days can not be happy; he can in a loving day, the face of charity fund-raising cold and mocking those who refused. In his world, never just money, only the income and never squeeze, the world of love and warmth, in his opinion worthless, he would live the day to day so stubborn and lonely life, no friends, no greeting, accompanied him, only those who save more more money.
In yet another Christmas Eve, he returned to his home alone, locked the door when the door but was startled by the ghost of terror, the next in a series of strange is scared to let him know what to do. Died seven years ago to become a partner to find the ghost of his painful past to regret his actions and told Scrooge still have the opportunity to change, saying that three ghosts will come to him, and then disappear . Scrooge shaken quickly encountered the first ghost, that is his past, the ghost of the past with his back to his childhood Christmas, the film is here at last out of the horror film of the color and the wonderful story full turn . He saw a child riding a snowmobile and good partners happy running; he saw sitting in that school alone their own classroom; he saw his sister had been concerned; he saw his former teacher; he saw his acquaintance with his girlfriend . Everything is so beautiful, when these memories fresh in our memory when Scrooge cute smile, this is the beginning of the hateful old man movie very different, in fact, in his heart, the memories are still there, he can still remember, only the interests of these good years and buried in the depths of the soul, so he did not remember. Then the ghost of the past brought him the day he and his wife separated, the young Scrooge was growing up, life and social pressure make him more afraid of poverty, he began to become more and more emphasis on money, have begun to slowly lose sight of their lover, when she was angry he was not allowed to put forward when the dissolution of marriage, facing her, "Do you still pursue a legacy of poor parents did not leave the girls?" The question, he speechless indifference can only be looked at love to leave. It is also since then become a real Scrooge miser, since the love for money are able to give, and what should he go to nostalgia. Sit in the old Scrooge looked at it all, after all, difficult to face, angry, fighting the fire back to the past now. Video here, the inside of Scrooge has played some small changes, and the next story, then let him make greater changes.
Back home after Scrooge soon to see the second ghost, that is his now. Now the soul of humor make him the perspective of looking down from heaven, the whole world, let him take a look at the human good and evil, joy and bitterness, and took him to a strange house staff Klein, when he saw because of his harsh Clay strange result because of the family money, only when Christmas Eve to eat roast duck; when he saw the result because of his bitter sweet little Raimi can not heal when the lame; Christmas dinner table when he heard strange Klein thanks to him, his cold heart finally has a trace of warmth, he was ashamed, and regretted that he knew, that he's cold and mean to others has brought so much harm, and later the scene of his nephew home also let him know he's mean to bring the majority of people only hate and ridicule, and only his dear nephew and loyal staff has done on his choice to forgive, in this between love and hate, he began gradually understand the meaning of life. Then the soul is now brought him to the end of life by the ghost of the future take him to his death in the world, no compassion, no one is sad, there are only cursing and ridicule, he was more painful to look after Because of his own sarcastic to volunteer Klein led the children unfortunately dead strange ending, finally, the ghost of the future brought him before a grave, to see the name and the date on the gravestone, he finally know that the Christmas dead man is his own, face the harsh reality, he finally began to truly reflect on his living from the heart, because the money he had lost too much, missed too much, hurt too much, in the face of death , he finally understood how my life should've been, he regretted and struggled, and vowed from the past, present and future all in the lessons learned and re-change yourself. This time, Scrooge has really changed in the future ghosts and he opened a small joke, threw his "death" of the coffin. When Scrooge awoke, they were pleasantly surprised to find himself still alive, glad to have hand, foot and dance together, with the most enthusiasm to meet the new day, he no longer mean the money, buy a turkey and generous people peculiar to the Clay family, hugging his servants, to ask forgiveness to the philanthropist and donated money to his nephew to spend a beautiful Christmas at home, to pay staff and to help take care of Raimi. Plot and the film series here at the beginning of the harsh bitter Scrooge in sharp contrast, in this sense, Scrooge is indeed dead, dead is the soul of the mean, and now he is new, generous, kind-hearted Scrooge, he began his new life, and all this, just his attitude changed it.
Videos in this with love and peace in a perfect ending, I was deeply moved. Throughout the whole film, they must express and show, and what we need in life and experience to face many problems, and our right attitude towards life. From an objective point of view, we are all stingy Scrooge that, stubbornly cling to something, perhaps the money, it may be power, status, fame … … to protect those who do not represent their own things, too many people Select a cold, closed, treachery, hatred, they closed the door to communication with the outside world really, and then, some people choose to completely self-closing, while others choose to false face to face the world. Thus, the world started to become dirty, or more precisely in the eyes of those who get dirty, because in their world, long lost love. This is our sorrow, we foolishly thought was to get them happy, but the fact is we are wrong, we take advantage of these things, we lost more, and those who are lost, it is precisely The most important thing in life. As the eyes of Scrooge's past, he was also a young man full of love and kindness, he has a warm family, beloved wife, good friends, kind of the boss, in his first few decades of life, Every Christmas, he flies makes sense, since that time, he also innocence. Coming back to our own, too, grew up with their own, began to study, work, life has been the pressure, we have gradually lost their innocence, loss of the kind of carefree, reckless life, right , growing up is not so self-willed, is to shoulder their responsibilities, but we can not lose people because of the nature of growing up in that warm things for their love, care for others, social care, this world is built on personal basis, and to false face to the world, the world is false; to love the world face to face, the world is full of love. From Christmas Eve to Christmas, Scrooge in their past experience, present and future, his eyes the whole world has changed, the original boring, cruel world becomes filled with love and joy, but in fact the world and not changed, only change Scrooge himself.
From the present and future in Scrooge saw because of his harsh to others and bring their own injury, the relationship between people is mutual, if you mean to others, and even death when you lose the time no one will feel sad for you. We are now done, have determined their own future, the film half, Scrooge cried request to change all that, he already knows his future is now caused by the behavior. Admittedly, Scrooge is lucky in his imminent death the night before, he got the guidelines, those guidelines through the redemption that he won, he deeply repented of their past behavior, and vowed to make changes. However, this is animation, in reality, we seldom have the opportunity to meet a saint, let him guide us to the lost lives, we can only rely on their own, always review your life, and the areas where poor corresponding changes, so as not to allow themselves a few years back and regret your life. In addition, the film's plot makes me feel a profound meaning, remember, when the soul is now dead, his feet hidden in two terrible children, he told Scrooge, there are two people in this world, a is called ignorance, called greed, we must always guard against them. Yes ah, ignorance and greed, is it not the failure of many people life is it? It is because of ignorance and greed, people will go to firmly grasp something, to the neglect of the most valuable wealth of human nature; also because of ignorance and greed, people will be faced with the hypocrisy of this world, stubbornly that the world is their eyes that way. So, means that too many tragedies.
Finally talk about death. Video makes sense for the elaboration of death, seeing the past and present, the future of the soul went with him after the death of Scrooge's world, but also at that time, Scrutton Wizards thoroughly done their penance in the past, He finally realized that, in the end of life, not take what is, no matter what you stick in the world the moment you leave, you can take away, probably only fond memories of their lifetime the. So, why not let your life be meaningful, some of it? When Scrooge after his death in that pleasantly surprised to find himself still alive, I think I have seen the words "What is happiness, when you see early in the morning when you are alive, that is happiness." When we have a life, cherish it all in front of it, not to order some of the things they do not own the tenacity of the people around this world a little more love and care, so that life will be more meaningful .
Time flies, time is good, change the face of life, we need is grateful and cherished. Life is an attitude, as long as the mentality has changed, everything will get better, to change, just a moment. This article would like to remind ourselves and to those who are immersed in the solitude autistic, life lost, no direction, then let your life on the road in the future, broader and better.
Best wishes, give you
圣诞颂歌英文读后感 篇3
This past December, I read Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol for the first time. Of course, I have seen the story done on stage a number of times (mostly as a child)， and the various movies are a yearly Christmas tradition. (My favorite is Albert Finney's portrayal in the early 1970's British musical version "Scrooge.") But despite being very familiar with the story itself through stage and film, and despite having bought a copy of the book some years back, I had never taken the time to sit down and read the story.
So, having bought a new edition of the book after Christmas last year, I finally sat down in December and began the original story.
It was absolutely sublime!
As much as I love the film and stage adaptations of the story, the book was just wonderful. So full of color and imagination and description - you could fairly feel the 19th century London cold, the piles of apples and oranges on the street carts, the hawkers calling out to passers-by bundled head-to-toe in woolen coats and boots.
This really is the quintessential Victorian Christmas story. I suppose I'm only about 170 years late in determining that, but now that I have read the story, I can see why it was such an instantaneous hit with readers. It was so successful during his lifetime, in fact, that Dickens began a tradition of writing Christmas stories every year. The edition of A Christmas Carol that I purchased last year has two other Dickens Christmas stories in it as well, although I have not yet dived into those two.
So I highly recommend this book. If you have seen any or most of the various Scrooge movies that have been made over the years, much of the book will be familiar, but there are a few scenes here and there that I have never seen re-enacted in a play or a movie, including a trip out to a mining colony on the coast of England, and a hovering ride over the English Channel to view Christmas on a Navy ship.
Even after all these years of watching movies and plays based upon this story, I was still moved, emotionally, while reading this book, particularly during the scenes with the Cratchit family. And at the end, I almost felt a tear well up when Scrooge showed up on his nephew's doorstep for Christmas Lunch.
To end, let me quote one of the more poignant passages from the book. The Ghost of Christmas Present has just reminded Scrooge of his harsh words about how if the poor are going to die "then they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population." The Ghost quoted the same phrase after Scrooge expressed concern about whether or not Tiny Tim would die. The Ghost goes on to say the following:
"Man," said the Ghost, "if man you be in heart, not adamant, forbear that wicked cant until you have discovered What the surplus is, and Where it is. Will you decide what men shall live, what men shall die? It may be, that in the sight of Heaven, you are more worthless and less fit to live than millions like this poor man's child. Oh God! To hear the Insect on the leaf pronouncing on the too much life among his hungry brothers in the dust."
That last line, in particular, strikes a powerful chord. How relevent, 170 years downstream, and in another country, for the self-righteous protestations of the wealthy American!
圣诞颂歌英文读后感 篇4
A christmas carol is one of the best-known works of charles Dickens, who is a criticism writer in the 19th century. His works mainly reflect the reality and A christmas carol, with no exception, mirrors westerners#39; lives on christmas.
The novel tells an old man who regards money as his own life---Ebenezer Scrooge. Even on christmas Eve, when the family gets together and people bless each other, he is still quite mean to everybody. It is not until three ghosts#39; coming to reveal his childhood, present and future that he realizes how important to be good to others and what christmas means. The ghosts of the past, present and future visit Scrooge and help him see how his behaviour has impacted on his life, and the way that he is treated by other people as a consequence. At the end of the novel, Scrooge is no longer the one he has been.
From the novel I#39;ve learned what the inherent meaning of christmas is, which results in my thinking about how to treat others.
christmas is to western countries what Spring Festival is to china. Although both festivals are designed to celebrating the coming year, they have their distinctive characters. I used to assume that christmas is merely about Santa claus, gifts, or big meal. Now I have realized christmas is also the time to put away one#39;s hatred and to treat others well sincerely. For instance, Bob, Scrooge#39;s clerk, toasts the longevity and health of Scrooge though Scrooge gives him so little money that he can hardly make ends meet. Bob and his families live in poverty; however, they know gratitude and amicability. Hence they lead a full-of-laughter life. In contrast, wealthy as he is, Scrooge is as dismal as the dark night. To be friendly——a spirit of christmas——is one of the differences between christmas and Spring Festival. Nowadays an increasing number of young chinese have been taking a fancy to christmas as if it were a most fashionable symbol. But how many of them recognize what christmas means indeed? I think there is no point in celebrating christmas without knowing the christmas culture.
As for the protagonist, Scrooge, he is a representative of those who go to extreme to earn money so that he ignores love-----love for friends, for soul mate, and for people in need. To some extend, Scrooge is lucky in that he meets three ghosts and avoids ending up in being a wandering ghost like his partner, marley.
Scrooge finally becomes a man with great heart. whereas, there are still Scrooges in our present society. Especially in china, the richer they are, the more reluctant they are when it comes to doing charity. Although it is not obligatory for the rich to donate money, the world needs all people#39;s love, no matter who you are. Last but not the least, happiness does not lie in what you have gained but what you have dedicated.
To sum up, A christmas carol rethinks the relationship among people, convincing readers that human beings should be kind to each other.
