百万英镑英语读后感 篇1
After reading the novel million pounds by American writer Mark Twain, I think it has written a rule of capitalist society: money is supreme.
For example, the book says that two rich brothers bet a million pound check on "I" to see if "I" can live on the million pound check for 30 days without being put in jail. This is a bet on my life, freedom and dignity. I think it is wrong to do so.
For example, the book says that in the era of "I" life, even now, the capitalist world will always be a world where money is supreme and everything is measured by money. When I had no money, I was just an idle person, but after being rich, I was ranked as the Duke first. Because "I" always wore that rag, I was often ignored by others. When "I" took out the million pound check, they would immediately be elated and treat "I" as if they were a king. I think this view is wrong.
For another example, the book says that many restaurant and shop owners worship the owner of money blindly. When I go to eat or go shopping, the boss will voluntarily credit all the things in the store with the money to "me", and even don't care whether "I" can pay or not. I don't think it's right.
For example, the book says, "I" went to buy clothes. Todd, the service staff, thought he had no money, so he took the worst suit from a pile of clothes that others refused to ask for and gave it to "me". When "I" handed in a million pound check, Todd and the boss quickly took out a suit of Royal Duke's clothes, and did not collect money from "me". I don't think it's right.
In addition, I think, in our life, there are often people who compare with money, for example, students who have more pocket money, whose mobile phone is more advanced, whose schoolbag is more expensive and good-looking, whose game console functions are more than others, and whose price is expensive and so on.
I think that we should be more willing to help others, who read more books, who has more knowledge.
Let's treat people with sincerity and be a person who doesn't take money as the standard!
百万英镑英文读后感 篇2
I knew Mark Twain when i was a middle school student. In my memory, there is an article in my English textbook that written by him. At that time, I pay no attention to Mark Twain. However, i knew more about him after I learned the History and Anthology of American Literature, he appeals to me dearly and deeply. As a result, I read a part of his novels in part time. Here I will introduce Million Pounds to you. Before that, I will give some information about Mark Twain to you. And last, it comes my though.
Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 – April 21, 1910) was an American humorist, satirist, lecturer and writer, better known by the pen name Mark Twain. He was born in Florida, Missouri and brought up in Hannibal, Missouri. After his fathers death in 1847, he was apprenticed to a printer and wrote for his brothers newspaper. He later worked as a licensed Mississippi river-boat pilot. The Civil War put an end to the steamboat traffic and Clemens moved to Virginia City, where he edited the Territorial Enterprise. On February 3, 1863, Mark Twain was born when Clemens signed a humorous travel account with that pseudonym. He often uses exaggerated ways to show his irony.
Mark Twain is most noted for his novels Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. He is also known for his quotations. During his life, Clemens became a friend to presidents, artists, leading industrialists and European royalty. For I love the One Million Pounds Note best, I would introduce it to you.
Is there real free-lunch in the world? Maybe there is! And such kind of “free lunch” strikes the poor and honest young man Henry Adams who has surprisingly got a one-million bank note from the brothers (Roderick & Oliver)。 As a matter of fact, the brothers had made a bet, if a poor, honest and clever people who come knocking on the door received the one million pounds, what will be happening to his life? The elder brother think that he would starve to death because he could not prove that the money belongs to him, will be arousing others suspicion,and even the banks do not let him deposit the money. On the contrary, the younger brother believes that he would live in a very good life. So the brothers lend the one million pounds to Henry Adams, and spent 30 days abroad. From then on, Henry Adams becomes a bright focus of the money-priority society. Later, the lucky young man experiences two sharply different treatments in the tailor shop. In the ball, people from every social class try every chance to show their friendship and flattery to the new millionaire. Adams never has the chance to spend a penny because no one can change the million and he is soon living in a luxurious hotel suite, wearing expensive suits. No one asks him to pay bill, these are forwarded for later payment. He even gets the chance to go to the Party that held by Duke. Fortunately, Henry meets Jane Griffiths and fall in love with this beautiful woman. He also comes across his good friend. The man gives him some advice to earn money. 30 days has passed, Henry Adams asks his girlfriend company him to meet the brothers. Out of his expectation, his girlfriend is the daughter of one of the brothers. And finally he got a very good job from the brother. And he lived a very happy life.
Mark Twains short story of “one million pounds note” is a very good work. The article satires the thoughts of “money is everything,” “money is omnipotent,” and expose the ugly face of capitalist society. As we all know, the root of the story was the bet of the brothers. What is the bet actually? Where does the attraction of the bank note lie in?
As far as i am concerned, the One Million Pounds Note takes an interesting, satirical look at the hypocrisy stemming from class distinction in England. England is a country where class and wealth are given extreme significance, especially among the rich. The novel shows the hypocrisy that existed among these people, how the rich are quick to change face when they find out that youre a man of wealth and how within the next moment they revert back to their condescending selves when all wealth is lost. The story was based on the main theme by emphasizing on the hypocrisy of the upper class society but at the same time it also creates a balance that prevents the novel from being a mockery of the British society. The love story appears at the right time and there is plenty of comedy to keep one entertained. The ending is a little predictable but the director does an overall good job by rounding it up and presenting his points.
In my heart, Herry was so luckily, not everyone can get the chance to use the million. I am so envious of the “lucky” of the heroine, but at the same time I would like to think that the reason why people carry favor with him is just that they attract too much important to money, isnt it? Money worship is shameful and should not be reaping more! Money is not omnipotent, and in the world, there are many things that more important than money.
百万英镑英文读后感 篇3
我仔细拜读了美国着名作家马克·吐温的名着《百万英镑》,一翻开书,里面幽默的故事情节就深深的吸引了我。
《百万英镑》主要讲了亨利因游艇开得太远而迷失了方向,被一艘帆船救起。抵达伦敦后,亨利不仅衣衫褴褛,而且身无分文,却意外地收到一对兄弟为了打赌而“借”他的一百万英镑。人们对这位罕见富翁,竟拼命地拉拢他,从免费吃饭,免费买衣服,到免费住宿,人们千方百计地讨好他,并不断提高他的社会地位,一直到了除王室外最高的公爵之上!不光如此,他还得到了一位好妻子和三万英镑的银行利息,最后还从两兄弟那儿得到了一份很好的工作,过着非常幸福的生活。他成了家喻户晓的名人,看到这儿,我也情不自禁羡慕这位幸运的主人公。
我细细一想,之所以人们千方百计地想讨好这位百万富翁,是因为人们见钱眼开,认为“金钱就是一切”。比如服装店的托德见“我”衣衫褴褛,就想把“我”轰走,可是看到一百万英镑,态度马上改变了,不停地为“我”打造各种衣服,甚至连话也说不清了。金钱不是万能的,世界上还有许多比金钱更重要的东西。拜金主义是多么可耻,马克·吐温写这本书并非仅仅为了幽默而博人一笑,更重要的是他将严肃的主题通过幽默的手法表现出来,这本书对“金钱就是一切”的想法进行了讽刺,揭穿了资本主义社会的丑恶面容。
很多读者都跟我一样深受这本名着的迷恋,这不仅是因为马克·吐温的作品中充满大众的朴实的语言,文字清新有力,带有诙谐滑稽的基调,读起来生动有趣、引人入胜,也是因为这位浑身散发着幽默智慧的美国名作家能用夸张和讽喻的修辞方法把美国社会的种种黑幕进行无情地揭露和鞭挞,给人留下独特的艺术风格。
百万英镑英文读后感 篇4
今天,我读了《百万英磅》。它描述了一个流落伦敦的美国人身无分文,两个富有的兄弟借给了他一张一百万英镑的支票。他先去饭店吃饭,老板开始对他很刻薄,而当他拿出那张百万英镑的大钞时,老板的态度一下子180度的转弯。为什么当你变得有钱了,别人对你的态度就不一样了?然后,他又去了服装店买衣服,没人理睬他,当他拿出那张百万英镑的大钞时,店员就马上是另外一副态度了。为什么有钱人就有人巴结,没有钱了就会遭人冷落呢?当他有一张百万英镑的钞票时,一个个陌生人却会像哈巴狗一样围着你转,讨好你。
有时候,妈妈打扮得漂漂亮亮去商场,服务员阿姨就是不厌其烦地给妈妈拿衣服,围着妈妈团团转,即使不买也会满脸堆笑地说:“谢谢光临。”;如果妈妈穿得随随便便就出门,服务员就会爱理不理,不冷不热的样子。为什么会这样呢?
钱!真得那么重要吗?我觉得钱挺重要的。如果金钱不重要,为什么大人都要炒股赚钱?为什么大人们都要买彩票?每个人都想成为百万富翁,过上一种自己向往的生活。如果能成为百万富翁,就可以做很多自己喜欢做得事,比如:帮助许多需要困难的人,去自己喜欢的国家游玩,给爸爸妈妈买一套漂亮的大房子住;如果没有那样的运气,我也会和爸爸妈妈一起,快快乐乐的生活着。
金钱是万能的吗?我觉得不是。钱可以买来高档的住宅,却不能买到家的温暖;钱能满足我们物质上的需求,却不能让我们的精神得到满足……钱的确可以满足我们的很多需要。但都不是最最重要的。现在,我和爸爸妈妈都住在奶奶家,那里的房子很小,居住的人很杂,房子周围都是随处可见的生活垃圾,每天看到这些都会让我很难过。但是当关起门,家却变成了我们的天堂!这里装满了爸爸妈妈、爷爷奶奶对我的爱!这里永远不会缺少笑声!爷爷奶奶每天起早贪黑的下地,只为让我吃上新鲜没有农药的蔬菜;爸爸总是不停地给我的书柜添加新的书本,鼓励我多看书,当我打开书的时候,这里就变成了最美的地方;房间里总是飘荡着妈妈温柔的声音:儿子,该睡觉了;宝贝,起床上学了;儿子……这些都不是靠金钱能换到的,却是我最珍贵的!
爸爸曾经跟我说:做一个内心真正快乐的人比做一个有钱人强得多。因为你没钱也很快乐呀。内心的快乐比物质上的快乐更加的珍贵!不是每个人都能成为有钱人,不是所有有钱人都是快乐的。但是如果你是一个快乐的人,那么,没钱又有什么关系呢?因为我照样能快快乐乐的活着。
百万英镑英文读后感 篇5
《百万英镑》是一个很有趣的短篇小说,读了《百万英镑》后,我有很多感想。
《百万英镑》主要讲的是两兄弟打了一个“如果一个穷人得到百万英镑会怎样做”的赌。他们就给了一个贫穷而诚实的人一张一百万英镑的钞票。
人们对这个一夜暴富的人很惊讶,不断提高他的地位。他还有了一个美丽的妻子,过着幸福的生活。
我的感想是,过去的人们看不起穷人,觉得帮助穷人自己什么好处都没有,还对穷人很冷淡。可是一见到有钱人就对他很客气、热情。这种情况就表现出了过去的人们都是金钱至上,有钱的人就有地位,受人们尊重。可是没钱的人就没有地位,别人也看不起他们。我觉得这种情况是非常不好的,不是只有有钱的人能受到尊重,每个人都有权利得到别人的尊重。同时,帮助穷人也是快乐的事。当你尽自己的能力帮助了别人后,内心会有一种说不出的喜悦和开心。我觉得人们还是应该帮助穷人。另外,我还觉得不应该金钱至上,以貌取人。金钱虽然很重要,但并不是万能的!
