Chapter5 Summary: Jane arrived at a school at Lowood.The living condition there was really poor.Girls there only had a little food to eat and some of it couldn’t be called as “food”.But there was a teacher called Miss Miller who cared about the girls, ordering extra bread and cheese for them.Feelings: I wonder why on earth there was a school like that in the past.What kind of parents would send their children to hell on earth? I am worried about Jane right now.Chapter6 Summary: Helen was a friend of Jane when she was at school.There was a teacher called Miss Scatcherd who was always directed against Helen.She scolded Helen whenever she had a chance.But Helen was pretty positive towards these.She believed that since life was short, we should be happy.Feelings: Helen had a strong character as a kid.I think that must due to her early experience as an orphan.She could face anything peacefully.Many adults can’t do that in my opinion.Chapter7 Summary: Mr.Brocklehurst announced to all the girls in the school that Jane was a liar and he warned them against her.But Helen trusted her and gave her courage.Feelings: It’s rude to say bad things about others no matter in front of them or behind their backs.Mr.Brocklehurst’s behavior can be really hurtful.Chapter8 Summary: Miss Temple was another person who chose to believe Jane.She asked Mr.Lloyd whether Jane’s side of story was true.As Mr.Lloyd convinced Jane’s word, Miss Temple announced to the school that Jane was innocent of Mr.Brocklehurst’s charges against her.Feelings: Miss Temple is that kind of person who gives you a light of hope when you are truly down.It’s a great luck to have such a person be your side and support you.I think Miss Temple will influence Jane throughout her lifetime.Chapter9 Summary: Typhoid fever struck Lowood when spring came.Thus, many of the students were kept apart.Helen was also ill, not typhoid but with consumption.Knowing Helen might die soon, Jane couldn’t help tiptoeing to the room Helen

Chapter14 Summary: One evening, Rochester sent for Jane and Adele after dinner.Suddenly, because she was staring at him, Rochester asked Jane if she thought he’s handsome.Without thinking, she gave an honest answer: no.Rochester told her that he’s feeling chatty tonight, and ordered Jane to chat with him about something.While Jane and Rochester had been talking, Adele had run out to try on one of the dresses that were among her new presents from Rochester.When she comes back and frolics around in the dress, she looks just like her mother.Feelings: I don’t know why but I just feel that the whole conversation between them is super intense and kind of awkward to me...Chapter15 Summary: One day when Mr.Rochester and Jane were wandering in the garden, Mr.Rochester talked about Adele’s mother, Celine Varens.That evening, Jane finds Rochester asleep in his bed with the curtains and his bedclothes on fire, and she puts out the flames and rescues him.Feelings: I feel like the relationship between Jane and Mr.Rochester is changing-I see something about love.Chapter16 Summary: Mrs.Fairfax told Jane that Mr.Rochester was taking a trip to Mr.Eshton’s house which was filled with girls who were fond of Mr.Rochester, especially Blanche Ingram, Lord Ingram’s daughter.After hearing this, Jane was pretty sure that Mr.Rochester would not be with her no matter what, so she became really sad.Feelings: I don’t think Mr.Rochester is that kind of guy who only cares about money and beauty to be honest.And if he has feelings for Jane, he may marry her.Chapter17 Summary: Everyone spends the three days making frantic preparations for all the guests.When they rode up, some in carriages and some on horses, a beautiful woman in a purple dress was riding beside Rochester.It’s Blanche Ingram!The visitors enter, and Jane sat with Adele, half-listening to their noise and trying to keep Adele from running down and bothering them.Blanche and Rochester sang a song, and Jane wanted to leave, but she’s mesmerized by Rochester’s voice.As soon as he finished, she slipped out into the hallway.Rochester came out after Jane and asked why she didn’t come and talk to him in the drawing room.He wanted her to come back, but he could tell she’s about to cry, so he let her go.Feelings: Now I am more than sure that Jane was in love with Mr.Rochester

《簡(jiǎn)愛》英文版讀后感
Oliver Twist, one of the most famous works of Charles Dickens’, is a novel reflecting the tragic fact of the life in Britain in 18th century.The author who himself was born in a poor family wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks of those cruel criminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneath the narrow and dirty streets in London.The hero of this novel was Oliver Twist, an orphan, who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime.He suffered enormous pain, such as hunger, thirst, beating and abuse.While reading the tragic experiences of the little Oliver, I was shocked by his sufferings.I felt for the poor boy, but at the same time I detested the evil Fagin and the brutal Bill.To my relief, as was written in all the best stories, the goodness eventually conquered devil and Oliver lived a happy life in the end.One of the plots that attracted me most is that after the theft, little Oliver was allowed to recover in the kind care of Mrs.Maylie and Rose and began a new life.He went for walks with them, or Rose read to him, and he worked hard at his lessons.He felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime and hardship and poverty.How can such a little boy who had already suffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is the nature of goodness.I think it is the most important information implied in the novel by Dickens-he believed that goodness could conquer every difficulty.Although I don’t think goodness is omnipotent, yet I do believe that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded.For me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person.Goodness is to humans what water is to fish.He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person.On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose’, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person.People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself.To my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity.They look down on people’s honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted.As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others.On the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit.In their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility.If they cannot get profit from showing their ‘kindness’, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down.They are one of the sorts that I really detest.Francis Bacon said in his essay, ‘Goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin.’
That is to say a person without goodness is destined to lose everything.Therefore, I, a kind person, want to tell those ‘vermin-to-be’ to learn from the kind Oliver and regain the nature of goodness.
第四篇:《簡(jiǎn)愛》英文讀后感
Jane Eyre 讀后感
Every time I read the story, I will be shocked deeply from my spirit.Or it’s just the relief.What I must admit is that I just want to make up for my lack of English literature, but I was attracted by it, touched by the main character of the story.Jane Eyre is a poor but aspiring, small in body but huge in soul, obscure but self-respecting girl.After we close the covers of the book, after having a long journey of the spirit, Jane Eyre, a marvelous figure, has left us so much to recall and to think.Jane was an ordinary girl without charming appearance, but she fell in love with her employer deeply.At first, she buried the love in her heart.When walking after the tea or dinner, she tried to appear that nothing had happened, but she always opened her memory to miss what they got along with each other.She also tried her best to fins out the marriage between Mr Rochester and Miss Englame.While, Rochester just appeared to be close to Englame, his favorite love was Jane.Actually, they loved each other very much;the words which Rochester said to Jane touched me.“Sometimes you just give me a particular feeling, and to those who use their beauty to stay with me, I find out that they don’t have the spirit as well as heart.I will be gentle and faithful forever.” As a common girl, I think Jane also moved by the words.It was thought that Jane and Mr Rochester would live a happy life, but it was stopped by a sudden accident.Jane left Rochester because his crazy wife showed up.Then the crazy woman died, Rochester blinded after saving his crazy wife.Rochester became poor in the fire, he lived in a wooden house among the forest alone.At this moment, Jane came back.Eventually, they lived together happily.Jane pursues the independent and the fair between woman and man.Though she has a hard experience, she loves her life, besides;she takes the love to the people who need it.In order to pursue a fair, true love, she even gave up her love which she is desired for.In my heart, Jane is a girl with love and reality;she tries her best to live better.Her life is beautiful as the stars.Maybe in our general idea, it just is a love story.But on my individual level, it is perfect after I read it my times.And the moved story teaches me how to treat my life, the environment surrounding, and my feelings and how to treat people around us.Love, friendship, relationship are the great value to human beings.Learning how to love others, thank others is important.I admire and appreciate Jane.While we can’t ignore another character, Helen, a girl has the love the same as Jane.Helen is an angel in my heart.She is not extraordinary because she gives up the real life completely which makes her a high degree.She is cute, however, the angel in our heart are all cute.When Jane was abused by others, she found Helen’s eyes were strange, at last she understand that it was the true brave.Jane was just able to comfort herself with it, she couldn’t step into the spirit of Helen’s heart, and it was the difference between them.It also suggested that a little girl who could behave like this was really admirable.While, her destination or her home, is the heaven.Helen died at a very young age, but all her life was wonderful.When I woke up from my dream, I tried my best to seek the words and descriptions about Helen.Somehow I couldn’t receive the message that she died.To make me relief was that I ignored a detail.In the book on the gravestone of her described her “Resurgam”.The meaning of the Latin is “l(fā)iving again”.Then I was comfortable.I like the two characters in the story.We are satisfied with the final result because life needs light.We always like to search comfort from the book that it don’t exist in the reality.The world is full of various tragedies, if all the results are not wonderful, we can not find the hope.After read the book, we remember her goodness: for someone who lost arms and blinded in eyes, for someone who despised her for her ordinariness, and even for someone who had hurt her deeply in the past.I am like a companion with Jane went through a period of seemingly ordinary but again not mediocre life.Actually the life of Jane isn’t on a grand and spectacular scale, but she experiences an extraordinary way.Though a little bitter, she will be happy under the care of angel.Generally speaking, this is our life.In fact, one has endless thoughts for the life.I always think in a difficult situation, if and when the hardships of this life is done, if and when the road of time no longer curves, if and when I try my best to walk to the end, will I be able to see the blinding sunlight? For the most important meaning in life is that, struggling through your trials you realize the value of your life, while taking away all the bitter misfortunes.Only then will we see the true radiance of the golden sun.
第五篇:簡(jiǎn)愛英文讀后感
簡(jiǎn)愛英文讀后感:
This is a story about a special and unreserved woman who has been exposed to a hostile environment but continuously and fearlessly struggling for her ideal life.The story can be interpreted as a symbol of the independent spirit.It seems to me that many readers’ English reading experience starts with Jane Eyer.I am of no exception.As we refer to the movie “Jane Eyer”, it is not surprising to find some differences because of its being filmized and retold in a new way, but the spirit of the novel remains----to be an independent person, both physically and mentally.Jane Eyer was a born resister, whose parents went off when she was very young, and her aunt,the only relative she had,treated her as badly as a ragtag.Since Jane’s education in Lowwood Orphanage began, she didn’t get what she had been expecting——simply being regarded as a common person, just the same as any other girl around.The suffers from being humiliated and devastated teach Jane to be persevering and prize dignity over anything else.As a reward of revolting the ruthless oppression, Jane got a chance to be a tutor in Thornfield Garden.There she made the acquaintance of lovely Adele and that garden’s owner, Rochester, a man with warm heart despite a cold face outside.Jane expected to change the life from then on, but fate had decided otherwise: After Jane and Rochester fell in love with each other and got down to get marry, she unfortunately came to know in fact Rochester had got a legal wife, who seemed to be the shadow following
Rochester and led to his moodiness all the time----Rochester was also a despairing person in need of salvation.Jane did want to give him a hand, however, she made up her mind to leave, because she didn’t want to betray her own principles, because she was Jane Eyer.The film has finally got a symbolist end: Jane inherited a large number of legacies and finally returned.After finding Rochester’s misfortune brought by his original mad wife, Jane chose to stay with him forever.I don’t know what others feel, but frankly speaking, I would rather regard the section that Jane began her teaching job in Thornfield as the film’s end----especially when I heard Jane’s words “Never in my life have I been awaken so happily.” For one thing, this ideal and brand-new beginning of life was what Jane had been imagining for long as a suffering person;for another, this should be what the audiences with my views hoped her to get.But the professional judgment of producing films reminded me to wait for a totally different result: There must be something wrong coming with the excellence----perhaps not only should another section be added to enrich the story, but also we may see from the next transition of Jane’s life that “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you would get.”(By Forrest Gump’s mother, in the film “Forrest Gump”)
What’s more, this film didn’t end when Jane left Thornfield.For Jane Eyer herself, there should always be somewhere to realize her great ideal of being independent considering her fortitude, but for Rochester, how he can get salvation?
The film gives the answer tentatively: Jane eventually got back to Rochester.In fact, when Jane
met Rochester for the first time, she scared his horse and made his heel strained, to a certain extent, which meant Rochester would get retrieval because of Jane.We can consider Rochester’s experiences as that of religion meaning.The fire by his frantic wife was the punishment for the cynicism early in his life.After it, Rochester got the mercy of the God and the love of the woman whom he loved.Here we can say: human nature and divinity get united perfectly in order to let such a story accord with the requirements of both two sides.The value of this film may be due to its efforts to explore a new way for the development of humanism under the faith of religion.Life is ceaselessly changing, but our living principles remain.Firmly persisting for the rights of being independent gives us enough confidence and courage, which is like the beacon over the capriccioso sea of life.In the world of the film, we have found the stories of ourselves, which makes us so concerned about the fate of the dramatis personae.In this era of rapid social and technological change leading to increasing life complexity and psychological displacement, both physical and mental effects on us call for a balance.We are likely to find ourselves bogged down in the Sargasso Sea of information overload and living unconsciousness.It’s our spirit that makes the life meaningful.Heart is the engine of body, brain is the resource of thought, and great films are the mirrors of life.In
dubitably, “Jane Eyer” is one of them.
