《最后一片叶子》英文读后感 篇一
The Last Leaf is a short story written by O Henry, Settled in Greenwich Village. Its depicts characters and themes are typically of O Henry’s work.
Johnsy has fallen ill and is dying of pneumonia. She watches the leaves falling from the window of her room, and decides that when the last leaf drops, she will die, too. To encourage her, Mr. Behrman painted the last leaf in a stormy night but he died of pneumonia because of his efforts in the storm.
This is a sad story about sacrifice as well as a moving story about hope. Likewise, we can learn about something from this story, something that totally different from each other.
Everyone has a certain purpose that support all his life, and we call it hope. Hope means an oasis to a man walking in the desert. From Johnsy’s recovery, there’s no doubt that hope is her holy light which points out her direction.
Meanwhile, everything should be paid off, including kindness. Maybe we can consider Johnsy’s recovery as an exchange with Mr. Behrman’s sacrifice. No wonder it will be a cruel comparison, but it is an universal routine in the world. In addition, it warns us not to let ourselves have our own way without limitation.

《最后一片叶子》英文读后感 篇三
“Hills Like White Elephants”, one of Hemingway’s terrific works, is a story that happens at a train station in the Ebro River valley of Spain. An American and his girlfriend are drinking beers and having a conversation when they are waiting for the train. In the dialogue, the young man’s attempt of convincing the girl Jig to take an operation has caused a lot of arguments. Though they are not explicit about what this operation really is, I consider this operation an abortion.
The conversation between them suggests that they are talking about an abortion. In the text, the man says it is an awfully simple operation and “it is just to let the air in” (Hemingway, 373). “To let the air in” is a process of vacuum aspiration in America in the 1920s, which is commonly used as a method of induced abortion. What is more, in their argument, Jig says, “Once they take it away, you never get it back”(Hemingway, 374). The man also makes it clear that he does not want anyone else but her. And this statement indicates a third person is involved. What could be the thing taken away in an operation that you may still want it back? Who could come to get in their life if the girl does not take the operation? All we can come up with is a baby. The man does not want a baby before they settle down, before he is ready to take the responsibility of raising a family. And Jig is still struggling about whether to take this operation or not in their debates. So this is an operation to take the unexpected baby away---abortion.
Sceneries between the two lines of the rails are also indications of their two different choices in pregnancy. On one side, there is no shade and no trees but only barren land stretching toward the hills. On the other side, the land is covered with green, fertile fields and river. Barren is used to describe a woman who is unable to produce children while fertile represents female’s capability of producing babies. If Jig agrees to take the operation, then the baby will no longer exist and thus making her barren. But if she chooses not to, then she will be consider as a fertile woman who is able to produce babies. That is to say the two totally opposite views symbolize their dilemma of the pregnancy --- infertile or fecund, undergo the abortion or not.
The title of this story itself is a metaphor implying this is an abortion. White elephant denotes something that is completely burdensome, although it may be precious enough. And here in this text, the white elephant is the symbol of a baby—valuable but troublesome. There is no doubt that the baby is a treasure. But the fact is that they are a young couple traveling around the world without a place to settle down. They have neither enough time nor energy to take care of a baby. Even if they don’t have to worry about those material conditions, they are not psychologically ready yet. Problems like “requirements of being qualified parents” has never occurred in their minds. Based on both physical and psychology circumstances of the young couple, we can see that the baby is precious but also a burden. Hence the white elephant here is an intimation of an abortion.
The phrase “to let the air in” makes it quite clear that this is an abortion. And during their debates, we can get to know someone is involved in this young couple and the American is trying to get away from this third person by requesting Jig to take the operation. Furthermore, the two different landscapes on the two sides of the rails is also foreshadowing us the outcome of Jig’s choice. Take it, she is barren. Reject, fertile. And the white elephant becomes emblematic of a baby that could be a sweet burden in their life. This symbol strengthen the operation that has been talked about in the whole story is an abortion. With all these factors integrated together, we can conclude this is an abortion.

《最后一片叶子》英文读后感 篇六
This story’s name is “The little prince”. As it known to all， we will encounter a lot of difficulties， even hardships. Different people may have different ways to deal with them. After reading The Little Princess， I am deeply impressed by Sara’s way to deal with difficulties. The Little Princess was written by Frances Hodgson Burnett， a famous novelist and dramatist. Sara， the heroine of the novel， was born in a rich family. In order to get a better education， her father took her from India to London so that she could go to the best school. Because Sara was kind-hearted， generous and most of all—rich， she was loved by everyone. All went well until her father died in an accident. Everything changed pletely. She didn’t understand why the teachers and classmates treated her so badly. Even the principal who used to be fond of her， made her work 16 hours a day. Sara’s miserable life began.When I finished reading the book， I was shocked by what the unimaginable pain Sara had suffered
after her father’s death. She used to be a happy， worriless， and rich Princess， but now she was a lonely and poor servant. She had to work very hard without any rest but only had little food. Besides she had to endure the unfriendly and even rude ways that her classmates treated her. All teachers and students in the school looked down upon her. The most important fact is that Sara had lost the love and care of her parents.What a mighty pain! If you were Sara， could you stand such pain? Needless to say， an 11 years old girl， even if it were an adult， he might not put up with it. But to my surprise， Sara faced it bravely.
Despite of the torture of the principal and all those pressures above， she still was optimistic towards life. By reading this novel， I felt inspired and think much. When we meet such difficulties， what should we do? Some people always plain that the fate is unfair to them. Some people can’t sustain the hardships and choose to give up. Few of them even try to mit suicide because they lack the courage to overe it. Compared with Sara—an eleven years old girl who can treat the pressure of life with optimistic spirit， these people’s performances are sounded so lamentable. Why can’t they make it?However， what impress me most are her characteristics and the thought of her “being a real princess.” This “real princess” does not mean luxury palaces， beautiful clothes and the apple of the others’ eyes， but being kind， generous and having good manners. It is unnecessary for “a real princess” to be strong in body， but she must be strong in will. Sara is a real princess in my heart all the time， whethe
r she was rich and wore beautiful clothes in the classroom or she was cold and hungry in the attic， just because she had the good characters and kind heart. The story went on. Fortunately， a friend of Sara’s father found her and told her that her father left a great sum of money to her. I pray and believe that every good person in the world deserve a good result， and of course， we are the same.
《最后一片叶子》英文读后感 篇七
I have never been to Troy， but David Maule made me feel as if I were standing on the high wall of Troy， watching the fierce war. Thanks to this British author， who adapted the famous Homer’s poem into a lively story， I found it easier to understand this story.
Though the story happened over 3000 years ago in a remote place， I was deeply fascinated by it. The mysterious plot is one of the reasons why I loved The Story of Troy so much， yet I am more interested in the human heroes of the war.
Hector was the eldest son of king of Troy， Priam. He was not only a real hero of Trojan， but was regarded the highest moral hero in Greek classic by later historians.
The war started because of the mischief of his brother， Paris， whom he didn’t appreciate. However， since Hector was the mander of the Trojan army， he was obliged to fight with all force. It was really a tragedy that such a valiant man died in the duel with another great warrior， Achilles.
It is natural to see death in a war. As a famous Chinese parable says， “A life can be as slight as a piece of feather， or as weighty as Mount Tai.” Sometimes， one’s glory walks hand in hand with one’s doom. Achilles was such a typical person. His personal charm made The Story of Troy more attractive.
He was so crucial because his every appearance in a war encouraged his fellow soldiers and terrified the enemies. Actually， Achilles was half-god who was almost invincible in people’s mind. That’s why his name was memorized long after his death.
Besides the two great men， the wisdom of Odysseus also proved him to be a great hero. He didn’t want to attend the war because he was happily married and had a lovely son. However， since his country was allied to Mycenae， he had to take the mand given by the king of Mycenae.
I’m quite sure that the story of the wooden horse is widely known， however， few people know who thought of the brilliant idea， that’s why I admired Odysseus so much because he was the person who got the idea. Thanks to the horse， the ten-year war came to an end at last. If you want to know how the wooden horse worked， just read the book.
The ancient Greeks believed that the gods and goddesses also played important roles in the origin， process and ending of the whole story.
The story of the golden apple was such an example.
When Eris， the goddess of argument and disagreement， threw out the golden apple to a wedding ceremony on Mount Olympus， a dispute happened. Hera， the queen of gods， Athena， the goddess of wisdom， and Aphrodite， the goddess of love and beauty， were all involved in the argument for the apple.
None of them was willing to give way， so they turned to Paris for a final judgment. Tempted by Aphrodite’s beauty and promise， Paris handed the apple to her. To keep her word， Aphrodite helped him to get Helen， the most beautiful woman in the world， as his wife. That was the cause of the war.
Paris’s choice obviously annoyed the other two goddesses. So during the war， they helped the Greek alliance army while some other gods， such as Apollo and Aphrodite， guarded Troy.
When Paris dueled with Helen’s former husband Menelaus， Aphrodite saved Paris when he was about to be finished off.
After the duel between those two people， there was a truce between the Greek alliance and Troy. However， both Hera and Athena were not happy to see it.
Hera pursued her husband ZEUS:“ Now， will you send Athena to make the Troyjans break the peace?”(Page 22) Then with Zeus’s permission， Athena went down to start the war again and finally she brought the Greeks to success.
From the whole story， we can see that in ancient Greeks’ view， gods sometimes played a much more important role in their life. However， with the rapid development of science， we have learned that the Greek gods never existed. This is why a recent movie of Troy has not mentioned a single god.
Everything happened due to men’s ambition， love， loyalty or jealousy. With those emotion and people’s effort， we human beings can acplish wonders and be master of the world.
God are of less importance than they used to be. Nonetheless， the gods and goddesses made The Story of Troy more mysterious and marvelous.
I have learnt from the book more than the wonderful story of history， love and war. I believe that human can determine their destiny by their own. I highly remend this book to my friends with the same interest.

《最后一片叶子》英文读后感 篇十
"last leaf" this article is my "childrens literature" on the see. when i finished reading the article, i who had a deep admiration for the artists talent and the kind of self-sacrificing spirit.
what happened was this: so a good friend of jones, unfortunately, contracted pneumonia, in their residence out of the window there is a cluster of ivy, through the baptism of wind and rain, and its leaves have disappeared into obscurity. jones think when the last one leaves off the ivy-ray later, her life, coming to an end. so this can not be racking their brains to dispel the idea of her, only to the downstairs, mr. berman for help. berman is a painter, he knew that after a wet and windy night, in the ivy leaves off the light, when girls think that their certain death, when the old painter to allow girls to rekindle the fire of hope, he braved the wind and rain to leaves painted on the wall, for which he contracted pneumonia and died.
