I read a book with a composition of 600, thank you.

book profit

Books are like a sailboat, taking you to the ocean of knowledge; A book, like a treasure, opens it and makes you feel endless happiness.

In the first grade of primary school, I didn't like reading very much. I think that thick book is full of words, which is boring and a waste of time. Once, my mother bought me a thick fairy tale book and told me to read it well at home. I didn't care about the book at first, just pretended to read it and flipped through it. Later, I found the cover of the book very interesting, so I opened the first page curiously, read only a paragraph, and was immediately attracted by the wonderful content in the book. After reading it, I feel like I just ate sugar, and I have an indescribable sweetness and happiness in my heart. From then on, I gradually fell in love with reading.

"How Steel is Tempered" This is a sad book to read. This is a heroic ode. This book describes a legendary figure with the background of Russian October Revolution-Paul? Kochakin. The events described took place in the historical period from 19 15 to the early 1930s. Paul. Kochakin is the central figure created by the author and the most successful fighter image in the book. Under the influence of the old Bolshevik Zhu, he moved from spontaneous fighting to conscious fighting. In the battle, he understood the social roots of life inequality, and that if he wants to overthrow the old world, he must be a "brave and strong class brother" and a "determined steel warrior". In the great struggle to defend the Soviet regime, he realized that a person can only create miracles if he is connected with the motherland. He once said: "I am in favor of revolutionaries who think that personal affairs can't be compared with collective undertakings at all."

Nicholas, the author of this book? Explaining the title of this work, ostrovsky said: "Steel is very strong because it is burned in a fire and cooled to a high degree. Our generation has also been trained in struggles and hard tests and learned never to lose heart in life. " Meanwhile, Nicholas? Ostrovsky's "Paul Spirit" has also influenced people who transcend the boundaries of time and space. Since 1980s, China has entered a new era of reform, opening-up and socialist modernization, which is quite different from Paul's era. We are faced with new situations, new tasks and many new problems to be solved. In real life, we no longer need to launch 17 times a day to capture a castle like Paul, nor do we need to step on frozen mud to build a small railway when we are suffering from typhoid fever. However, in the great journey of building a Socialism with Chinese characteristics, Paul's selfless dedication to the progress and liberation of mankind; Combine lofty ideals with every concrete action, be down-to-earth and work hard; Fearless, tenacious, enterprising and hard-working spirit; The spirit of endless life and struggle is still the strongest voice of the times. In the construction of socialist material civilization and spiritual civilization, this spirit is still our powerful weapon.

Books and I are like a kind of fate, like a rainbow bridge of psychological communication, like an invisible line, caring about each other. Books are my good friends, always accompanying me. ...

Love reading! Let's harvest the beauty of reading together!

"Books are the ladder of human progress." This sentence is absolutely correct. Since we began to learn to read, books have always been our good friends, always bringing us enlightenment and warmth in life. Moved tears and smiles. Has become an indispensable part of our lives.

We have become a new generation of scholars, ambitious and seize the day. After learning textbook knowledge well, we should read a lot of books, Li Bai's elegance and Su Shi's boldness, Lu Xun's coldness and profundity, and Bing Xin's eagerness. Gorky said, "Books make me a happy person." Isn't it? Reading brings us the most meaningful pleasure and the most lasting motivation; Reading brings us peace of mind and spiritual comfort. Friends may leave, but books are the most loyal partners. Time goes by, but reading keeps us young forever!

Books are messengers of spreading human culture. Since the invention of printing, this fact has always existed and will not change for a long time. Touch words with your head, imagine with your brain, and feel with your heart. Books are expensive to read. They are the treasure you hold in your hand and the piety when you open them. When reading, your thoughts wander in the book, your emotions fluctuate in the book, and you can experience any emotion in the book. This is the charm of books.

Like a hungry man jumping on bread, he loves reading, reading touching and noble works, personally educating the great spirit, absorbing the essence of wisdom beyond birth, illness and death, focusing on a broader space and time, and letting the mind communicate the past and the future, the known and the unknown.

There is a story that Russian lomonosov wanted a book most when he was a child. He is the son of a fisherman. During the day, he goes fishing with his father, and at night, he hides in the shed and reads books. One day, lomonosov and his father were fishing at sea. Suddenly, there was a strong wind, the sea raised huge waves, and the sail of the ship was blown off. The situation is very urgent. Desperate, he climbed up along the swaying mast, and soon the sails blown by the wind were firmly tied, and the fishing boat returned to stability. After the gale passed, his father pulled him to his side and said with a smile, "Son, I will reward you for your bravery and buy you a deerskin coat, ok?" Lomonosov shook his head. "Then what do you want?" "I want to buy a book, dad, and nothing else." "Isn't a deerskin coat better than a book?" "Dad, I want a good book with all kinds of knowledge. For example, why do the stars in the sky fall, and why the night is the dawn in the past ... "Father and sailors opened their eyes in surprise. When he grew up, lomonosov became a famous Russian scientist, poet, linguist and historian. His scientific research covers a wide range, involving many fields of natural science. At the same time of scientific research, he also conducted literary creation, linguistics and historical research, leaving many valuable works for future generations.

Let me introduce you to how celebrities read!

And the American writer Jack? London, which has experienced hardships, cherishes the opportunity to learn. When he came across a book, he didn't pry it open with a sleigh and steal some things inside. Instead, he put his teeth into the book's throat like a hungry wolf, sucking its blood, swallowing its meat and biting its bones violently! Until all the fibers and muscles in that book became a part of him. Look, that's how he reads!

When we concentrate on studying a course or delving into a subject, if we consciously extend the tentacles of wisdom to the adjacent knowledge fields, it will inevitably produce a different artistic conception. As a link in the familiar knowledge chain, unexpected new discoveries are likely to be made. For those books of related majors, if time and energy permit, you might as well read them. It doesn't matter if you don't understand them for a while. Some valuable revelations may be produced in the middle. Infiltration learning will broaden our horizons, activate our thinking and greatly improve learning efficiency. Isn't this a way?

"Half an acre of square pond, day put * * *. Ask where the canal is so clear because there is a source of living water. " Students, let's drink this "source of living water", climb the ladder of human progress, become a rich man of knowledge, a giant of spirit, and become a builder and pillar of the motherland in the 2/kloc-0 century.

Reflections on "If you give me three days of light"

In the 20th century, a unique individual life shocked the world in a brave way. She is Helen Keller, a woman who lives in the dark but brings light to mankind, a weak woman who has spent 88 spring and autumn years but survived 87 years dull, silent and speechless. However, it is such a person who is claustrophobic in the world of blind and deaf people. He graduated from Degilliff College of Harvard University, spent all his life running around and set up a charity for the disabled, and was selected as one of the top ten American hero idols in the 20th century by Time magazine. Creating this miracle depends on an indomitable heart. Helen accepted the challenge of life, embraced the world with love, faced difficulties with amazing perseverance, finally found light in the dark, and finally extended her loving hands to the world. "If people live every day as if it were the last day of their lives, it would be great, which would better reflect the value of life. However, the use and enjoyment of time is limited. " If everyone can make full use of every day, it will be a happy thing! Three days of light is only a short moment in life for ordinary people. For Helen, who is blind, this is unimaginable. In real life, there are always some people who lament that fate is unfair to them and complain that God has not given them clever talent and superhuman wisdom, which has made them famous in one fell swoop. I don't know that the real society depends on knowledge, and it is impossible for people without knowledge to have a place in society. If we can study hard and let knowledge occupy our brains, we can lay a cornerstone for the future road! Let's bring light to the dark world and hope to the hopeless world!

Let's take a look at Helen Keller's three-day schedule! On the first day, I want to meet someone. Their kindness, gentleness and friendship make my life worth living. First of all, I hope to stare at the face of my dear teacher, Mrs. Anne Sullivan Macy, for a long time. When I was a child, she came to me and opened the outside world for me. I will not only see the outline of her face in order to treasure it in my memory, but also study her appearance and find vivid signs of her tenderness and patience out of sympathy. This is how she accomplished the arduous task of educating me. I hope to see in her eyes the strong character that can make her stand firm in the face of difficulties and the sympathy for all mankind that she often reveals to me. "

On the second day with vision, I will get up at dawn and watch the night turn into a moving miracle during the day. I will look up at the magnificent panorama of dawn with awe, and at the same time, the sun will wake up the sleeping earth. On this day, I will take a quick look at the world, past and present. I want to see the miracle of human progress, the endless changes over thousands of years.

The next morning, I will greet the dawn again, eager to find new happiness, because I believe that for those who can really see, the dawn of every day must be a new beauty that will be repeated forever. According to the deadline of my imaginary miracle, this will be the third and last day I can see. I won't have time to spend on regrets and desires, because there are too many things to see. On the first day, I dedicated myself to my friends, both alive and lifeless. The next day, I saw the history of human and nature. Today, I will spend my time in the current daily world and go to places frequented by people who are busy with their lives. Where can I find so many activities and situations like new york? So this city became my destination. She hopes to have three days of light to feel the world and make her familiar with everything around her. Helen Keller wants to see too many things, but it's just a beautiful dream.

"Suffering is a stepping stone to genius ..." It is suffering that makes Helen Keller's strong character. As a blind, deaf and disabled person, she has a healthy psychology beyond ordinary people. She expressed her thirst for knowledge and sincere love for mankind with what she could feel and imagine. She warned others with her own personal experience that a healthy mind is the most basic condition for human success, and a healthy person can't achieve anything without a healthy mind. Mentally healthy people, even if they are physically disabled, will not complain about the fate, will not accept and yearn for the pity of others, and will reach the other side of the ideal with their strong perseverance.

A philosopher once said, "Courage exists in the soul, not in a strong body." This is a true portrayal of Helen. Those who have seen "If Give Me Three Days of Light" should know her misfortune. In the eyes of ordinary people, what will be gained from such an unfortunate life? However, Helen has created one miracle after another: she was not only admitted to Harvard University, but also wrote 14 works in her life. She also traveled in many ways and set up many charities all over the United States, which a normal person can't do. Cherish the reality to have a future. This is the value of "cherishing" and the dialectics of life. Compared with Helen, many of us may feel ashamed. Because although we have a healthier body than her, we often make the mistake of "seeing but not seeing much", just as she said. Or we suffer for what we "have lost", or worry about what we can't get, but we don't cherish what we really "have" and don't know how to grasp it well.

In the face of adversity, Helen stood up strongly. She is really physically and mentally disabled. As for self, it has good conditions, but it lacks perseverance. Therefore, this article gave me the greatest inspiration:

First, try your best to finish everything. A famous person once said, "What's not easy? It is not easy to insist on doing what you should do every day. What's not simple? It is not easy to do everything best. " Please think about this problem. If you only have three days of light, how will you use your eyes? Thinking that after three days, the sun will never rise in front of your eyes again, how will you spend those precious three days? Where will you put your eyes?

Second, we should have an optimistic attitude. In the face of great blows and difficulties, Helen didn't complain about others, but faced them with optimism to gain confidence. The following story also illustrates this point. Two scholars with equal grades went to Beijing to catch the exam. When they were on the road in the middle of the night, they met the funeral procession and passed the coffin. The former is very worried and thinks this is not a good sign. The latter thought: coffins, coffins, officials and wealth. So the latter won the first prize. But the former is unknown on the list, and this story can better explain that optimism is one of the important factors for success.

Reflections on Ugly China

First article

Pay great attention to this title, the ugly words are particularly dazzling! Why can't everyone admit ugliness? I can only say that friends who have read this book will use two words to describe it-"shocking"! ! It has been three years since the bestseller in 2004, and most of the contents of this book are still vaguely printed in my mind. It was written by Bai Yang 20 years ago. Sadly, it was not really published in the mainland until 20 years later, and now I am more or less stimulated by this book! I didn't work in a travel agency that year, so I chose to be a part-time tour guide in Heyuan and help my sister look after the store when I was free. I was bored to death when I was looking at the shop. I just hold this ugly book and read it every day when I have time. My sister said that I should not always be addicted to this book. Many things written in it are extreme, for fear that I will become extreme after reading it. Indeed, now I think about things, look at things and be a man. In fact, I want BT more than before! Since reading this book, my view of the whole society has changed 360 degrees! My sister once commented in this book: China people never like telling the truth and love to lie, because in China, there is no freedom of speech, not before, not now and never will! Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, as a China person, I should defend myself when others accuse us of doing something wrong! But now, I don't think so! I always think that if others are good, they should study! Good habits should be carried forward, bad habits should be corrected and taken as a warning! This is not to say that I am unpatriotic after reading this book. Here, I want to make it clear that I am a citizen who loves the motherland very much! I have to admit that my education is authentic China culture, and I have to admit that I accept foreign culture more easily! ! ! I saw an advertisement on CCTV in the early days. I don't know if you have seen it in front of the computer screen now. It's a program made by Park Cunxi. The slogan is: welcome the Olympic Games, count the fresh air and stress civilization! After reading this advertisement repeatedly, I think that I sometimes take my guests out to travel, see the domestic guests and the quality of all aspects, and combine this book, which is really touching! In real life, it is true. There are piles of rubbish on the tour bus! The workload of drivers is heavy again. Although the driver is obliged to clean and clean up the sanitation inside the car after driving, it is much more difficult to have more than 40 tourists in the car! I'm exhausted after driving all day! Even with such hard work and careful cleaning! Therefore, I still support the driver's work! As a result, I finally thought of a way to deal with tourists. As soon as I got on the bus, I emphasized the health problem, that is, as long as anyone is found to have garbage and sundries under his seat, we will give this tourist the highest honor of the year: the title of garbage king! ! Please supervise each other! As long as you say so, everyone is conscious, but the most important thing is to attach a sentence: thank you for your cooperation! Going to the scenic spot and entering the ticket office of the scenic spot, I don't like queuing, the messy order, I am used to it, speechless, and it is helpless to shout loudly! ! ! When we arrived at the restaurant, it was clearly agreed in the car that 10 people would have a table, and everyone could combine freely. As a result, many people still can't find a place to sit, alas! Hotel room allocation, agreed, is to write the room number to the team leader by name, which is convenient for everyone! It happened that some people, when they arrived at the hotel lobby, were afraid that they would not get a good room, so they grabbed it and got the room card! In the car, the tour guide was explaining, but some guests were impatient and said, stop it, it's too noisy! I can't even get the minimum respect, depressed! ! As for the concept of time, most China tourists have no concept of time. If they agreed on a concentrated time, the result was that they waited for one person for an hour! There are many phenomena that you can't get used to, so you can only bear them silently! Dear friends, next year's Beijing Olympic Games will be a great event for the Chinese nation and a prosperous time for international sports. I am convinced and confident that through next year's Olympic Games, most people in China will see their ugly side and make great changes, because there are good ones and bad ones to compare. Many people from various countries and regions and different cultures have flooded into China, allowing people to accept and feel unconditionally, so as to see their many shortcomings clearly! Since then, China has really made greater progress! Friends, let's look forward to it together!

The second article

The ugliness of China people, like the spirit of Ah Q, is basically the psychological feature of every China person. Just like our faces, they have China characteristics.

Writing a book written 20 years ago must be out of date. After all, things have changed. After all, many remarks in the book are no longer suitable for today's social situation. However, there are still many things that have not changed. In the final analysis, it is the national inferiority. After all, it is a "glorious tradition" left over from thousands of years. It's not that reform can change it. What's more, in these twenty years, many new bad habits have mushroomed. Therefore, for China people in the 2nd/kloc-0th century, The Ugly China still has profound educational significance.

I think the fundamental reason why China people are ugly is that they are too hypocritical and love face, so that they haven't had the courage to face their diseases for thousands of years. Even though there is a trend of cancer, they still call themselves "a great country" and "a country of etiquette" blindfolded and try their best to cover up their shortcomings. You say that China has shortcomings because your living environment is not as good as that of China. Or maybe you are worried that the rise of China will swallow up your poor little country, so you want to do everything possible to undermine the confidence of our descendants of the Dragon before that.

What astronauts can only see the Great Wall, and what China people are the two smartest people in the world, tied with Jews? To tell you the truth, I really feel blushing. Take these false things to narcissism, let your vanity be greatly satisfied, and let yourself become a strong person in your own world.

Many people in China have heard such a joke. A father and son are on the bus. After sitting for a while, the child whispered to his father, "Dad, someone stole the wallet." The father hurriedly and carefully motioned the child not to talk, as if he had seen nothing. When I got off the bus, my father suddenly found that my wallet was missing, so he blamed the child for not looking at it, but the child said, "Dad, I just told you that someone stole my wallet. Didn't you let me talk? That man stole your wallet! " This is a wonderful satire on China's education system.

In China, parents have instilled in their children the theory that "you must hide when you meet bad people", which makes the technical content of thieves on the street lower and lower, because even if they are found stealing, no one will come forward to uphold justice. 1VS 1Thief has a good chance of winning, not to mention that most of the victims are women.

At home, we are all from China, so we can forget it if we don't help, because after all, we are all "our own" and there is no need to "kill each other". Then we should unite when we go out, hehe, it's just a good wish. I have a friend who goes to school in England. She told me that in Britain, she would rather do the experiment in a group of local people with racial discrimination than in a group of people from China, because at least there is no need to worry about the problem that the other party would rather fail the experiment than disclose their knowledge, because the experiment will involve their own unknown fields.

A good tradition is essential for a nation and a country to gain a foothold in the world. Germans killed Jews because they were too smart, but Japanese invaders invaded China only to find that China was easy to bully. One Japanese is a worm and three Japanese are dragons; One from China is a dragon, and three from China are worms. Selfishness, suspicion, pedantry ... how can a nation with so many shortcomings move forward? Just like our modified minivan running on expressway, it has been seriously overloaded. If you want to make great strides, you must get rid of these burdens Ugliness, like a mirror, directly hits the hearts of Chinese people, the ugliest and darkest place. Mr. Bai Yang has given us a prescription. What we should do next depends on ourselves. If we want to fundamentally eradicate the bad habits of China people, we can only take ugliness as a mirror in our later life and always examine whether there are still those ugly problems in ourselves. If you have it, change it, and if you don't, you will be crowned.

& lt& lt Anne of Green Gables >:> Reaction to a book or an article

I recently read a book-Anne of Green Gables.

After reading this book, I was deeply moved and felt that it was really a touching story about friendship, responsibility and love. In the book, Matthew and Marilla, brothers and sisters of Green Gables farmhouse, decide to adopt a boy. Unexpectedly, due to a mistake, the orphanage sent a dreamy and talkative red-haired girl-Anne. Her unique personality made her get into trouble frequently, which made people laugh, changed her brothers and sisters and affected their love. Anne was smart and diligent, and passed the university by her own efforts, but she gave up her studies in order to take care of Marilla.

After reading this book, I deeply fell in love with this girl who loves fantasy and has personality. She is immersed in her beautiful fantasy all day. In her imagination, cherry blossom is her ice queen, and apple is her girl in red; Laughing in naughty streams under snow and ice; She also imagined her shadow and echo as two close friends and told them what was on her mind ... Looking at Anne's naive and romantic fantasies, I felt that I was brought into a wonderful world by Anne, where I felt another kind of magic and happiness. In fact, I am also a girl who loves fantasy, and I often have many beautiful and sweet dreams. I like to look up at the white clouds in the sky, and I am a white cloud before I know it; I like small animals and often talk to them kindly, making my mother laugh that I am a silly goose ... Now, I have found a girl Anne who loves fantasy more than me, and I want to make friends with her.

Annie is an orphan. Her life experience and experience are unfortunate, but she has not been defeated by this misfortune and pain. She is optimistic and positive. With her own efforts, she won the Queen's School and the Avery Scholarship. She used her own efforts to make her dreams come true one by one. Think about myself. Every time I encounter a math problem, I want to shrink back and stop thinking, so these "roadblocks" also block my way forward. Anne certainly doesn't want to make friends with such people, so I will be like Anne, not afraid of difficulties, overcome these "obstacles" and realize my dreams as soon as possible.

Annie is like a bright lamp, which illuminates the direction of my efforts and lights up my heart! Annie, let's be good friends!

Reflections on Homer's Epic

Homer's epic was officially written in the 6th century BC. Includes two epics, one is Iliad (translated as Ilion) and the other is Odessa (translated as Odyssey). The content of the epic originated from a 10 year war between achaean in southern Greece and Trojans in northern Asia Minor at the end of 12 BC. After the war, many legends circulated among the people. Legend praises the heroic deeds that emerged in the war in the form of short songs, which are intertwined with ancient Greek mythology. They are passed down from generation to generation by folk singers. Every festival, they sing in the family residence. From the 9th century BC to the 8th century BC, Homer, a blind poet (from the 9th century BC to the 8th century BC), based on short songs, processed it into a ballad book, which was officially written in the 6th century BC. From the 3rd century BC to the 2nd century BC, scholars in Alexandria edited and researched it completely, which is the Homer epic we see today. Homer's epic is the earliest and most important work in European literature, which provides rich materials and inspiration for later generations and contributes to the birth of countless masterpieces.

The theme of Homer's epic is to depict the hero's decisiveness, courage and strength, and to show the hero's wisdom. At the beginning of the Iliad, the poet said that "Achilles' anger is my theme", and the epic takes this as the main line to organize and sort out materials, focusing on praising the noble qualities of clan heroes. More than two-thirds of the poem is about Achilles' refusal to participate in the war, which leaves enough room for the images of other heroes. No matter diomedes and Aeneas in the Greek army or hector in the Trojan army, their bravery and good fighting skills are reflected in this part, and this writing laid the foundation for finally highlighting Achilles' unparalleled strength. Once Achilles entered the war, the situation immediately reversed, and hector was killed. Naturally, he showed the highest bravery.

Odysseus highlighted the wisdom of Odysseus, a Greek impression, and showed the struggle between the ancient Greeks and nature through his thrilling drifting experience, which contained many ancient myths. The first half of Odysseus is about meeting at sea, which is full of romance. The second half is about family life, full of realism. If he strays into Giant Island by mistake, he will kill the cyclops, the son of Poseidon, with wisdom, and bring his great courage and wisdom into full play. When he returned to the palace, he did not jump into the arms of his wife and children defenseless, but carefully worked out a plan to retaliate against the children of the nobles who proposed marriage.

Epic is written in natural and plain spoken language, and uses a lot of Homeric metaphors, which is fresh, strange and expressive. The secular depiction of characters is simple and clear, and a few strokes outline vivid characters. And the technique of side contrast is used.
