I believe that everyone who has seen a tale of two cities will be impressed by the shock. The book by dickens, a famous British writer, is immortal! Classic is classic, no matter how many years later, classics still sending out the bright luster, the ups and downs, whats more, the book story unimaginable a bizarre plot twists and turns, the master is the master, to make you know the story is fictional, but still as the story of the people and things, or moved, or anger, or sadness, or tears, dont you dont admire master ability of fiction.

Dickens in a tale of two cities revealed before the outbreak of the French revolution, the nobility of the ruthless oppression, depending on the masses of poor people mean dog, failure, and finally an outbreak of the French revolution, poor people after long-term brutal oppression, crazy revenge for the noble class, the same ruthless trial authority and the judgment of their lives, blood is blood, blinded by hate glasses, blood excited nerve, head to the ground, but vengeance will solve the problem? Can you live a happy life? This is the question dickens raised in his book. If the authorities have more compassion and more love for the people, so that everyone will not be oppressed, or the revolution will not break out, we must know that the working peoples demands on society are very low and low! The revolution should be a warning to those in power. Worth fortunately, in the 20th century, we this s our authorities, whether China, wen jiabao, or Mr Obama in the United States, they are put forward for all to common prosperity, let everyone enjoy the fruit of social and economic development, they think that favor the rich society not only moral, also a serious threat to social stability.

Love and tolerance is the good idea, because saw a pair of noble brother destroyed the crimes of a poor family, was framed in the bastille 18 years of doctor, doctor angry in prison, he secretly recorded the persecuted, vowed to heaven and earth, accused of aristocrats and their children and grandchildren, until the last one, in the years of imprisonment, the doctor lost his head, do the shoes has become the only sustenance to sustain life. After his release from prison, his father returned to his senses with his daughters deep love for his father. With great love and tolerance, he agreed to the marriage of his daughter.

When with a picture of the ceiling look up court appearance of Mr. Carlton, gives the impression of how unruly and arrogant, although he talented, although he has a heart of precious, but because of the darkness of the society, he chose the debauchery, chose the cynicism, chose the ceremony, Carlton love Lucy how pure and selfless, he chose when Lucy happiness silently blessing, secretly guardian beside her, when Lucy need a bailout, he chose to his own life in exchange for Lucy her husbands life, to ensure the happiness of Lucy, although I do not believe that the world really can have such feelings, but I still deep compassion, pity, Carlton, great respect for his feelings, hope all tender belong to him, to comfort his wounded heart.

The children who were persecuted by the aristocrats, the hatred of the heart, the revenge became the knife axe, the symbol of the vengeance, the death of the goddess of vengeance is not a metaphor for the price of revenge?

Hatred, tolerance, love! This all let us deeply ponder introspection! Carltons words are supposed to be all the best footnote: this age of sin, and bring forth the previous era of nature of sin to offset by themselves, and gradually disappeared, a beautiful peace loving era will be born!

After reading the story, do you still have jingling shoes in your mind? Still in the doctors gloom, sad helplessness and tears of anger? Still in tears for carton? Still sighing for madame Defarge? I think you must be in the doctor family finally happy peace and silent blessing!

The tale of two cities is a historical story, one of Dickens’ long background to the novel is the revolution of France .It portrayed a brutal and bloody story , but it also contained love and friendship.

In the novel, Dickens sarcastically described a typical cruel nobleman-marquis of Evermonde . When he was young he and his brother stole a countrywoman by force and killed her family .What’s worse , he used his power to imprison Dr Manette , a kind and honest man who knew all the things they had done and wanted to disclose their crimes . In order to hide their crimes. Marquis of Evermonde and his brother threw Doctor Manette into prison for 18 years . During these 18 years,Doctor Manette lost his freedom and suffer a great in spirit .

I felt unthinkable that Marquis of Evermonde and his brother killed people just as easily as they killed chickens. They deprived other people’s freedom as they liked and they thought it was normal and unremarkable. They had never realized that they had done something wrong or something improper. Because their nature was cruel and evil, like demons. There is an old saying which means: People who mit too many crimes will kill themselves. After all, there is justice in the world. The demons can’t be rampant forever. Because the world will not forgive them. They will pay their lives for their crimes. Let’s see the consequence of the Marquis,He lay there like a stone with a knife pushed into his heart.” I think it was just what he ought to gain and it is a real exciting scene.

The Marquis’ death was just the beginning of people’s resistance to the nobleman. Gradually more and more people joined in the revolution. One after another nobleman were sentenced to death and their heads were cut down . However, some innocent people were implicated in the revolution. Charles Darney was one of them He was the nephew of Marquis of Evermonde. To the opposite of his uncle, Darney was a kind and independent young man.

Dickens spoke highly of kindness mercy and love in the novel too. This is the other thone of the novel when Doctor Manette was released from prison. It was his daughter Lucie who took care of him and helped him return to normal. During this time, Dr manette and Lucie knew Charles Darney and Sydeny Carton, the two young man fell in love with Lucie at the same time . At last, Lucie married Chares Darney .Dr Manette accepted Darney as his son-in-law although he knew that Darney was the nephew of the man who threw him into prison for18 years. This is the love between father and daughter. And Sydeny Carton , the very great man ,loved Lucie deeply. He promised Lucie that he would do everything for her happiness. He did it truely ,he sacrificed himself instead of Darney who looked the same as him. This is love for lovers . This is the most wonderful thing in the world. It also reminds us that no matter how no matter when there is true love existing. At the end , Lucie, Dr Manette and Darney arrived in England safely.

The tale of two cities is different from other historical fictions. Its characters and main plots are fictional under the real background of the revolution of France. The author made the experience of the fictional charactor Dr Manette as the main plots are plicated, and they are flexuous and dramatic. The structure is plete and rigorous.

Dickens had dear love and hate. He praised those who ought to be praised and attacked those who ought to be attacked. The motivation of the novel maybe just warn the English dominators. But I think we can learn something meaningful from the tale of two cities.

"It was the best of years, it was the worst of years, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness... We go straight to heaven, and we go straight to hell, "and dickens begins the tale of two cities with this sentence.

The beautiful miss manette, after she was an adult, knew that her father was still alive. She has been dealing with her fathers family affairs and property, jarvis. Mr. Lory accompanied her to meet his father. On the way back, the father was taken care of by his daughter, and on the mail ship from France to England, Charles.

"

Carton, from the love of miss manette, was so solemn, so noble, that she spoke of her life and her feelings for her. Miss manette had also given him his best friendship. I cant save you, Mr. Carton? I cant cheer you up -- forgive me again! -- on the right track? Cant I repay your trust? I know its trust. Her sincerity, won the affection of friends, saved her lover and family.

A letter changed the family, leaving the husband dead. Charles. Darnay automatically threw himself into the heat of France and was imprisoned. The father, who had been taken care of by his daughter, became the protector of the whole family. Without law courts and trials, blood flows into rivers, murders, vengeance.

Madame Defarge received the admiration of her husband, and her faithful love. For revenge, she would kill the counts blood. "O freedom, how many SINS are thy name! . Miss pross, "with a passionate love that is often stronger than hate," clung to madame Defarge, and in the struggle, madame Defarge injured her own life. Miss prosss love for miss manette came from miss manettes affection for her. Once again, her love saved her family.

Jarvis. In lory, the typical English gentleman, with his meticulous and emotional restraint, the bachelor was warm and consoled at miss manettes house, and kept his old friend in his life.

Miss manette, like a pearly woman, guarded her family and warmed her friends. Better a virtuous woman than a pearl!

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way

Charles Dickens（1812～1870），one of the greatest novelist in England. I have read his A tale of two cities .And this is the beginning of the book.

“A Tale of Two Cities”, one of Dickens’ works, is a well-known long story. And it has a great influence on the society at that time. When I saw the title at first, I thought it might tell something about the developing process of two cities, which might be no fun. However, after reading it , I found I had been wrong.

It portrays a brutal, bloody and revengeful society as well as love and friendship. It happened before and after the Revolution in France. The ruthless and cruel landowners and noblemen exploited the miserable people who owned nothing, but these poor people worked for others day and night. Noblemen had the power that one word would doubtlessly send others to prison. As time passed by, the noise of the coming-up revolution storm in Paris was growing louder and louder. At last, it was on the fourteenth of July, 1789 that the revolution broke out.

“The Bastille and its officers were in the hands of people, and the people wanted revenge and blood.” The true Freedom of France came. “The Guillotine, the new machine of death, cut off the heads of many, many people—not only the powerful and the cruel, but also the beautiful, the innocent, and the good.” Among the good, there was a man called Darney. Even though his father, wife and friends knew he was innocent, the people thought he was the enemy and would go to the Guillotine.

In spite of a shadow of fear and hate here and there, we can also see the great and kind persons. I think the greatest person is Mr. Manette who had been a prisoner in the Bastille for eighteen years. What he suffered was difficult to imagine, but he was still kind and loved his daughter. He did his best to save his son-in-law, whose father and uncle were the men that had ever sent him to prison. Another great man is the lawyer, Sydney Carton, a friend of Darney. Before Darney went to Guillotine, Mr. Carton changed places with him and he said, “It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever know.” Besides, the story is full of love, including the love between father and daughter, the love between husband and wife, the love among friends and so on. In short, only if you have love in your heart, the life is meaningful. At the same time, the revenge will run away with you, freedom and happiness will be around you.

There is no doubt that Charles Dickens is one of the greatest writers

in English. From this book, I see some true lives and moving stories from the old ages. I think you must feel the same as me that we don’t want to live in that condition. To be frank, we all look forward to living in a peaceful and love situation. Though the present life has improved a lot, there are still wars in some places. All that we need is to solve the problems in peaceful ways instead of by force. So let’s work hard together in order to make our life much more meaningful and happier, make our society more harmonious.

The report of the A Tale of Two Cities.

Recently, I read a tale of two cities. I think that it’s a good novel.

First, I want to introduce the author of this book .His name is Charles Dickens, he is an outstanding writer. He is one of the greatest writers in the 19 century. However, he had a painful childhood. He was arrested when he was 10 years old due to household debt. He had only a few years of learning. So, in his early years, his works are more about the painful children.

双城记英文读后感范文 第七篇

I wrote this after reading this literature, it was so wonderful that I could not restrain my excitement. In particular, when reading the last two or three chapters, the hazy, misty plots slowly seem to have been cleared by the light of the first sunlight and the fog of the fog. No wonder the author, Charles Dickens, said that he was "deeply moved and excited" by the novel and longed to play Sidney carton on the stage himself. Sidney, in my opinion, caton is indeed a can let a person "deeply moved, very excited, though, I began to he didnt play very interested, just a wild gentleman; The scene of the last brother and sister heading off to the guillotine really made me cry. In particular, the final message, which includes the ending of the novel, reveals the character of Sidney carton and the goodness of human nature. "What Ive done is the best and the best thing Ive ever done. What I am about to receive will be the most peaceful and peaceful rest of my life. Its really a tear-jerker.

First, a little personal opinion about the characters.

The first one is jarvis lorry. From the back, he was a dedicated banker who was extremely loyal to the bank and to his friend Alexander manette. He has been at the bank for at least a few decades, and from the authors witty description of "the various dark cabinets in tellsons bank, some elderly old men are working hard. When tellsons, hired a young man in London, they always hide he has been in the old, like a piece of cheese hid him in a dark corner, until he was with complete sets of tellson flavour, full of stains or mold." And you can see that. All that matters to him is the care and help of his old friends. I remember writing in the article that he could put aside his work for an old friend. And the morbidity of her father after lucies marriage made Mr. Lorry very uneasy: "Mr. Lorrys life was as good as ever, and his hopes grew dim, and his mood increased." "And Mr. Lorry, exhausted by his an__ous day and night, fell asleep on duty." "But then he suddenly began to suspect that he was still dreaming." It was to the extent of exhaustion that he could see how deep his friendship was with his friends. And, finally, if it were not for lowry, for they are prepared to travel relatively comfortable through the acceptance, with light behind a terrified woman, a man who fainted, a small child, a delirious elderly, again how also escape not escape from the so-called "people" clutches.

One more figure is Lucy. Her own appearance has already determined that she is a compassionate and weak and strong woman. For her father, who had been imprisoned for eighteen years, she helped him through difficult times with her love. First back to her father to help him out of the bondage of the body, for the father of the deep into his mind is not on a regular basis the suffering of the memory, only she can the fastest, the most gentle comfort living fathers uncertain heart, this is a helpless old friends lowry. There is to testify in court, she fairly with affection, "in the face of such compassion, so moving youth and beauty, at this time the mood of the defendant, than face all the people watching more uncomfortable." And so on, and so forth; When she finally kissed her husband, she stuck to it, as strong as anyone who faced tragedy. She was still a bit of a backer, but she was the embodiment of love.

She said that her father had to be mentioned. Alexander manettes life is worth considering, how much injustice, how much experience, how much trauma, all make us think. After being cared for by his daughter, he was equally able to give back to his daughter. He finally showed the story of a father who cared about his daughter with love. Likewise, I think he has his great misfortune. It, life is very rough, and eventually to really bring happiness for the daughter, relapse, full house for his work, is at this time, he felt old and helpless. One tragedy leads to another.

For darnay, the man, in general, pursued his mothers philosophy and "set off a series of events" (which is not a repudiation of him). He was also a kind man, and because of this he went back to his family and he was in trouble. This is also the result of a complex set of causes.

One of the most legendary and tearful is Sidney carton. The appearance of "always looking at the ceiling" shows his dissolute, and later we find out that he is really an annihilated talent, who is unable to dissolve into the society at that time. Inner feelings also very noble, is ultimately fulfilled the rival in love (lets just say so, but they havent think they really like the story of the relationship between the bucket over, well, here also see his calm, may be installed? If it is, it means he has a lot of talent. Thats an admirable person. He didnt care what he did when he escaped, but he was the only one who knew what to do and what not to do. The death of darnay and his wife, in memory of his death is a matter of god! Finally he met in his sisters, on the execution ground, comfort, encouragement, his sister, is a look at all the detachment of life, the novel also wrote "that night, the city of Paris about him, say on the calendar year, Laura pavilion the most calm. Many also say that he has a holy face, like a prophets prophet. The character of the book is very exciting, such as in going to jail for up to jailbreak before and after Mr Lowry confessed, "caton into the yard, there alone for a moment, looked up at her house lights. He blessed him softly and said, goodbye forever, and vanished into the darkness. While I was reading this, I was vaguely aware that something was wrong, but I could not think of anything that would change because of the fact that he had told him to wait for him. This sentence is a little sad, want to make a person cry but not let a person cry out of taste. This is the description of cartons heart, beneath the surface of the light, the heart of a man who is devoted to the love of others.

The villain, especially madame Defarge, can be said to be an old man of revenge under the guise of the people. Her most common movement was knitting, without saying a word, but everything was in her heart, and she remembered it on her knitting. People like this have a feeling of fear of her, a cold, unhuman embodiment. The Jacques three around them, the vengeful woman, and so on, were all in a state of confusion, only to feel the pleasure of cutting off the heads of others. They did not, at all, have the same kind of consciousness as madame DE senor, but the desecration of life, from their messy appearance and corrupt manners. He wanted to overthrow the king, but there was a certain amount of affection for the old master he had served before. His wife said to her, her husband, "honest want to save the doctor a" visible, hair, still can hardly is neutral, but it forced him to host a begin, he is living in the contradiction, may be affected by his revenge heart strong wife.

Suspense, the novel is full, it is the more see more understand, like a stream seriatim together, finally became a great river pentium, make a person more see more exciting, more want to see. For example, the most prominent is the second chapter 6 "hundreds of people" and chapter 7, "marquis master in the city" has nothing to do, if the chapter 7, alone can also be a novel. Until later see that he is to reach in life, then saw Lucy, then saw his relationship to the old physician, and finally with the doctors letter, complex relationships take in everything in a glance, to expound characters relations, has a good supporting role. Undoubtedly, the last two chapters are the climax, the most exciting part. The last brother and sister were more than I had imagined, and the authors arrangement clearly highlighted carton, who was a symbol of justice. Now, calm down and think about why all the siblings are locked inside. I think the most fundamental reason is that this revolution in the authors eye itself is chaotic, there is no human rights, crazy people just follow their own will, that ultimately leads to tragedy.

After all, this work is a good and evil confrontation, the victory of good, an exciting end. Let us ponder whether the revenge is worth doing, but the revenge of madame DE sendai is not made in a day, in response to the dead brother, sister, and father; It is the brand of class struggle that inevitably forms the concept of revenge and makes her cold character. At the end of the day, there is a certain responsibility for all aspects, and the social environment is an inseparable factor.

Generally speaking, this is a very good novel.

It was easy for him to give the impression of slovenliness, depression, and greed, but he changed his clothes with Charles in an emergency, through a jailer, to Charless prison. Consequences, Charles was sent out of the French, but were guillotined caton, he said a words: before death is what I do now I have done the best, the most good things in life; What I am about to receive is the quietest and most peaceful rest of my life.

I read a tale of two cities, the reason is that there are a lot of net friend recommendation online, they all said it was a very touching book, Ill download on the net with curiosity, finished part feels good, just write this entry.

The tale of a tale of two cities is a profound depiction of the turbulent times of the day, and the love of women who have sacrificed their lives for historical realities.

It is said on the Internet that the tale of a tale of two cities is a story of two men and a woman, but I feel that the man does not know what the author really means. s DE, in my opinion, a hatred and French aristocrat, Lucy, Charles and Sydneys feelings, is just to show who caused the war, why things. In fact, people have to be tolerant to others, even if the big things can be small and small. I remember one thing that happened to me: once, I accidentally lost my classmates book, and I thought she would pay me for it. I didnt think that when I spoke to her, she not only did not scold me, but also told me that I could not forget the whole thing in the future, so I should form good habits. Well, maybe this is the attitude between people.

In this work, I see a lot of different people. Honest good yet suffered persecution horse knight doctor, loyal lowry, appearance indifference, inner passion, dissolute and selfless Sidney, inhuman DEs wife, cruel and wicked fremont brothers el... There is a complex hatred in it, but it creates more hatred, and this complicated act is vividly presented in front of us, and we seem to be back to the era of the irrational. Some people complain that being born in this century is a bad thing, to be born in the past, at least to be a martyr. In fact, this idea is wrong. We should make contribution to modern life in modern times. And have all kinds of people in the world, they all have different personalities, we who dont cry because it is the character of the weird and dont make friends with him, also dont believe that the people around, maybe he is one of them want to harm you.

What I like most about a tale of two cities is Sidney, the lawyers assistant. Carlton. His first appearance was different, and when the people in the courtroom looked casually at the ceiling, one of his notes revealed the plot behind the case. Him with a melancholy, in an appearance as a lawyer, he is talented, but is reluctant to hiding behind the somebody else, do others stepping stone of success, he built his own hands and a wall, cut off from fame and wealth. He once said, "I am a desperate coolie. I dont care about anyone in the world, and nobody CARES about me."

Yes, we should not aspire to be famous, so we can not learn more knowledge. Maybe you can be a stepping stone to others, and you can learn more knowledge from others. We can see his strengths and weaknesses, learn his strengths, and throw away his weaknesses.

Recently I read a novel called A Tale of Two Cities. The novel is based on the French Revolution. It was 1775,both England and France were on the verge of Revolution .England's king ,George Ⅲ,was having trouble with his American colonies .And France 's king ,LouisⅩⅥ, was too concerned with his own wealth to worry about his people .

Therefore, neither king noticed the changes taking place in his country .They didn't realize ,or care ,that the peasants were hungry and unhappy .They never thought that anything was wrong with the way things were .They were wealthy ,and they thought only of themselves.

But the peasants were tired of being treated unfairly. They were tired of watching the kings waste money while their own children starved. So, in both London and Paris, the lower classes prepared to revolt .They were ready to force the kings to make a change.

Then one day in July of 1789, the Revolution began in France .Armed peasants ran through the streets of Saint Antoine .Their leader, Ernest Defarge continued to pass out weapons. The men cheered and waved their weapons in the air .Then, they marched toward the Bastille.

The novel also talks the story of two men, Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton., who look similar but are very different in personality. Darnay is a romantic French aristocrat, his uncle is the Marquis St.

Evremonde. The Marquis is infamous for his cruelty. While is a cynical English barrister. However, the two are in love with the same woman, Lucie Manette.

Charles Darnay is not cruel like his uncle has been. When he knew his servant is in danger, he went to France at once to defend him. He had promised his mother that he would help the peasants. He had a hard time traveling through France. When he finally reached Paris, he was taken prisoner. In my point of view, Charles Darnay is innocent, he is not cruel.

The other one is Sydney Carton.

In my opinion, he is a wonderful man. He once said,‘I am not worthy of your love, but I want you to know that I wish for your happiness. I hope that we will able to remain close friends. Miss Manette, I would give my life for you. Never forget that, Lucie.’ Eventually, he was to die in Charles Darnay’s place. Because Charles Darnay is Lucie’s husband, and they led a happy life. In order to help Lucie live a enjoyable life, he was to die in Charles Darnay’s place.

From the novel 'A tale of two cities '.I learn much ,not only the Revolution in two different cities ,but also the deep relationship between people .I'm impressed by Mr. Manette's tough spirit ,never give in to difficulties .Even though he had been imprisoned a long time ,he struggled to live. He was also an upright man .When his son -in -law was arrested by the Revolutionists, strongly defended Charles Darnay ,hoped that the Revolutionists could release Charles Darnay .

Lucie Manette gives me a deep impression .At the beginning of the novel, I learn that her father had passed, but then,Mr. Lorry told her that her father was still alive. Because Lucie 's father was imprisoned for a long time .Her mother begged the king to help her ,but he gave no reply .She suffered terribly when her husband disappeared ,so she told her daughter that her father had died .But she never stopped looking for Lucie's father .The king was of no help ,and she never found even one clue .Two years after his disappearance ,she died .

I am deeply impressed by the other characters in the novel.

is also a good man ,at the first of the novel ,when he met Miss Lucie ,and told her that her father was still alive .Besides ,he helped her

to find her father in Paris .On the way to Paris ,they experienced many difficulties .But didn't give up helping Miss Lucie and Lucie 's father .As far as I concerned ,it not only show his hospitality but also show his hatred to the European royal.

In Paris, the Marquis St. Evrémonde, Darnay's uncle, is returning from an audience with Monseigneur, one of the 'greatest lords in France', when his coach runs over and kills the son of the peasant Gaspard; he throws a coin to Gaspard to compensate him for his loss; in the assembled crowd is the implacable tricoteuse, Madame Defarge. He throws the money back, enraging the Marquis and leading him to exclaim that he would willingly kill any of the peasants of France.

If I were a peasant at that time in England or France,I would join in the revolution with no hesitation .All man are equal .The king of country should concern his people whether they are starving or homeless .We can learn much from history in our country or in other countries ,only when the leader of the country cares much about his people's life can the country be stronger .People are the base of the country ,without people ,country can not be stronger and can not develop.

The tale of two cities is a historical story, one of Dickens’ long background to the novel is the revolution of France .It portrayed a brutal and bloody story , but it also contained love and friendship.

In the novel, Dickens sarcastically described a typical cruel nobleman—marquis of Evermonde . When he was young he and his brother stole a countrywoman by force and killed her family .What’s worse , he used his power to imprison Dr Manette , a kind and honest man who knew all the things they had done and wanted to disclose their crimes . In order to hide their crimes. Marquis of Evermonde and his brother threw Doctor Manette into prison for 18 years . During these 18 years,Doctor Manette lost his freedom and suffer a great in spirit .

I felt unthinkable that Marquis of Evermonde and his brother killed people just as easily as they killed chickens. They deprived other people’s freedom as they liked and they thought it was normal and unremarkable. They had never realized that they had done something wrong or something improper. Because their nature was cruel and evil, like demons. There is an old saying which means: People who commit too many crimes will kill themselves. After all, there is justice in the world. The demons can’t be rampant forever. Because the world will not forgive them. They will pay their lives for their crimes. Let’s see the consequence of the Marquis,’’He lay there like a stone with a knife pushed into his heart.” I think it was just what he ought to gain and it is a real exciting scene.

The Marquis’ death was just the beginning of people’s resistance to the nobleman. Gradually more and more people joined in the revolution. One after another nobleman were sentenced to death and their heads were cut down . However, some innocent people were implicated in the revolution. Charles Darney was one of them He was the nephew of Marquis of Evermonde. To the opposite of his uncle, Darney was a kind and independent young man.

Dickens spoke highly of kindness mercy and love in the novel too. This is the other thone of the novel when Doctor Manette was released from prison. It was his daughter Lucie who took care of him and helped him return to normal. During this time, Dr manette and Lucie knew Charles Darney and Sydeny Carton, the two young man fell in love with Lucie at the same time . At last, Lucie married Chares Darney .Dr Manette accepted Darney as his son-in-law although he knew that Darney was the nephew of the man who threw him into prison for18 years. This is the love between father and daughter. And Sydeny Carton , the very great man ,loved Lucie deeply. He promised Lucie that he would do everything for her happiness. He did it truely ,he sacrificed himself instead of Darney who looked the same as him. This is love for lovers . This is the most wonderful thing in the world. It also reminds us that no matter how no matter when there is true love existing. At the end , Lucie, Dr Manette and Darney arrived in England safely.

The tale of two cities is different from other historical fictions. Its characters and main plots are fictional under the real background of the revolution of France. The author made the experience of the fictional charactor Dr Manette as the main plots are complicated, and they are flexuous and dramatic. The structure is complete and rigorous.

Dickens had dear love and hate. He praised those who ought to be praised and attacked those who ought to be attacked. The motivation of the novel maybe just warn the English dominators. But I think we can learn something meaningful from the tale of two cities.

双城记英文读后感范文 第十四篇

A tale of two cities is one of dickenss most important masterpieces. Long before writing a tale of two cities, dickens is very concern on the French revolution, reread the British historian, Carlyles "French revolution" and other scholars about the work. His keen interest in the French revolution began with fears of a serious social crisis lurking in Britain at the time. At the end of 1854, he said: "I believe that dissatisfaction like smoke fire up worse than, this special like the public before the French revolution for the first time, its danger, for one thousand kinds of reasons, such as poor harvest, the nobility of bossy and incompetent the already tense situation last to defeat in war, overseas and domestic events and so on -- into that have never seen a terrible fire." It can be seen that the motive for the creation of a tale of two cities is to use the historical experience of the French revolution as a reference to the British ruling class. At the same time, through the extreme portrayal of the revolutionary terrorist, also to harbor resentment, attempting to violence against the tyranny of the masses, warned that fantasy for the status quo of social contradictions increasingly deepen to find a way out.

Starting from this purpose, the novel profoundly revealed before the French revolution deeply intensified the social contradictions, strongly criticized aristocracy dissolute brutal, and deep sympathy for the lower peoples suffering. The work pointed out that there is a limit to the endurance of the people. Under the brutal rule of the aristocracy, the people were forced to rise up against their livelihood. Such resistance is justified. The novel also depicts the spectacular scenes of the people attacking the bastille and displaying the great power of the people. However, the author stands in the position of bourgeois humanitarianism, namely, against the tyranny of the cruel oppression of the people, and against the violence of the revolutionary people against the tyranny. In dickenss book, the whole revolution was described as a catastrophe of destruction, a merciless punishment for the evil aristocracy, and the blind murder of innocent people.

The novel shapes three kinds of characters. A kind of feudal aristocracy, represented by the marquis brothers of erfrimont, whose "only unshakable philosophy is oppressing people", is the object of the authors pain and flagellation. Another group is the revolutionary masses, such as the stone couple. It must be noted that their image is distorted. Such as cutting stone wife, Diana, she was born in peasant, insulted, persecution of the feudal nobles with great hatred, the author deeply sympathize with her misery, really appreciated her strong personality, before and after the revolution, excellent talents and extraordinary leadership ability; But when the revolution went deeper, it turned her into a cruel, fierce, narrow-minded Nemesis. Especially when she went to the doctors house to hunt for lucie and lucie, she was more of a bloodthirsty maniac. In the end, the author let her die under her gun, clearly expressing a negative attitude. The third category is idealized characters, which are the authors example of humanitarian solutions to social conflicts and the triumph of love over hate, including the menet, darnay, laurel and calden. Doctor menet was killed by the marquis brothers, and he had a deep hatred for the marquis. But for the love of his daughter, he could abandon the old hatred. Darnay was the nephew of the marquis, who was greatly aware of the guilt of his family, and of abandoning the title and property, and was determined to make atonement with his own actions. This is a reflection of the characters, a victim of the tyranny of the aristocracy, tolerance; One was the heir to the noble marquis, who advocated benevolence. Among them was lucie, the daughter and wife. Under the bonds of love, they form a happy family of mutual understanding and affection. This is clearly the way the author envisages a solution to the social conflict, contrary to the violent revolution, which is not practical.

The tale of a tale of two cities is different from the general historical novel, its characters and main plot are fictional. During the French revolution broad real background, the author clues to give priority to with fictional characters meini, doctors experience, the unjust charge three independent each other, love and revenge and interconnected stories interweave together, intricate plot, intricate plot. The author adopts the technique of flashback, narration, foreshadowing and foreshadowing, so that the structure of the novel is complete and tight, the plot twists and turns intense and dramatic, and shows excellent artistic skills. The tale of a tale of two cities is solemn, melancholy and full of sorrow, but lacks the humor of early works.

双城记英文读后感范文 第十五篇

"This is the best of times and the worst of times." The first sentence of a tale of two cities is quoted numerous times. But I guess the man who knows this sentence and the novel "tale of two cities" tells a story, and does not know why. If you want to understand the original meaning of this sentence, and why you write this classic sentence, it is natural to read the original.

"In short, that era is so similar to todays." This sentence actually explains the two questions of the above classic sentence: why do you say that, and to whom? This is one of the reasons why the novel was born, dickens hope that through such a novel, by describing the French revolution brought disaster to the people to express their own worry, warn the dangerous situation at the same time. A revolutionary history, two cities representing two countries, a few wind and rain people, constitute the main elements of the novel.

Although the tale of a tale of two cities is a classic novel, it is considered to be the authors view of history because it explicitly states that the revolutionary background is the French revolution. And that is the focus of countless controversies over the novel. In the novel, dickens showed the cruelty of the aristocracy, but also showed the irrational destruction of the revolutionary masses. The revolution, he argued, was a kind of oppression that replaced another kind of oppression, and a bloodbath that was a direct and heavy one instead of another. A series of depictions of the storming of the bastille and of the mob - bloody, brutal, cunning, malevolent - is the most striking aspect of the novel.

Dickens has devoted a great deal of ink to the evil of the mob, showing his abhorrence of the mob and, in a certain degree, the hatred of the revolution. Of course, as a humanist, dickens also points out the cure for the world: love. This kind of love, embodied in the novel includes family love, love, friendship and such private feelings, also includes the abandonment of the aristocracy, the salvation of the kind of fraternity. Among them, the most brilliant is the description of cartons love.

I like carton very much. In fact, carton was the embodiment of dickens, and dickens was the first to think of the man and the spirit of his body to conceive the novel. So, what was carton like? The novel describes: "the sun is sad and mournful, and the rising of sorrow, the sight unseen, is nothing worse than this man. He is talented and emotional, but he has no opportunity to show his talent. He cant do anything, and he cant make his own happiness. He knew his problem, but he resigned himself to his fate, and he wasted all his time, year after year.

It is a young man who has lost his talent and youth. The novel does not appear to have been explained, since he has appeared in the first place, and has not written much about his family background. Personally, this man represents dickens himself, so he does not need to describe too much - the fall of carton comes from his frustration with the deteriorating society. He went up to the guillotine and said, "I see the evil of this age, and the evil of the former times, which has caused this evil, and I have gradually died for my SINS."

Pessimists - caton, was rejected by his friends meet with difficulties, in the love of a womans husband is about to be guillotined in when he suddenly appeared, be dont save the situation, do price with his own life, in the Nick of time to make a replace plan to rescue his beloved womans husband.

It is not the love of Christ, who has redeemed his sin and died. In fact, in the novel, carton did indeed say, in the biblical tone, "the resurrection is in me, the life is in me, and the man who believes in me, though dead, will rise again. And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. This is the medicine that dickens prescribed for "the worst of times", but it is, after all, an ideal. It is said that the tale of a tale of two cities is an immortal work without Sidney. The e__stence and behavior of carton, the novel loses its value and brilliance.

双城记英文读后感范文 第十七篇

“It was the best of times， and it was the worst of times。 It was the age of wisdom， and it was the age of foolishness。 It was the epoch of belief， and it was the epoch of incredulity。 It was the season of light， and it was the season of darkness。 It was the spring of hope， and it was the winter of despair。 We had everything before us， and we had nothing before us。 We were all going direct to Heaven， and we were all going direct the other way。 In short， the period was so far like the present period。 That some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received， for good or for evil， in the superlative degree of parison only。 ”

With the beginning of above words， Dickens told us a love story called “A Tale of Two Cities”， which is one of his most important representative works。 The novel profoundly exposed the society contradiction before the French Revolution， intensely attacks the aristocratic social class is dissolute and cruel， and sincerely sympathizes with the depressed classes。 The novel also described many magnificent scenes like the revolt people attacked Bastille and so on， which displayed people's great strength。

The novel has portrayed many different people。 Doctor Manette is honest and kind but suffers the persecution actually ， Lucie is beautiful and gentle ，Charles is graceful and noble，Lorry is upright and honest ，Sydney is semblance of indifferent， innermost feelings of warm， unconventional but also selfless and lofty，Miss Pross is straightforward and loyal，Evremonde brothers are cruel and sinister。 The plex hatred is hard to solve， the cruel revenge has made more hatreds， loves rebirth in the hell edge， but take the life as the price。

Among many different kinds of people in the story， it is Sydney Carton who impressed me most。

I can’t describe my feeling at the first sight of him。 To tell the truth， he was not eye-catching at that time。 When the readers were immersed in the meeting between Lucie and Charles， he only played a little role as a lawyer who had the same face with Charles and extricated him from accusation through this point。

Then they went to drink。 Without scruple， Carton expressed his dislike to Charles。 Yes， they had the same face。 But they were different。 Carton was a little lawyer， while Charles was a successful man。 Carton was quite free and easy， while Charles was graceful and noble。 In fact， they were absolutely two distinctive men except for their appearance。 Certainly， what Carton cared about was not the wealth or the position， but the love of Lucie。 He realized that Lucie loved Charles， so he was barely out of control at that time。

Every time I read this part， I could feel his sincerity and broad-minded。 By no means would he say a lie。 He must tell you what he thinks in the heart。 It is Sydney Carton， a true man。

After a short time， he can’t resist himself going to see Lucie。 But when he stepped into the small forest， he saw Lucie and Charles getting together happily。 He didn’t rush towards them， however， he returned without a word。 Though he had a period of depression after that， he was clear who Lucie loved was not him。 So what he only would do was to bless her。

Some days later， he came to meet Lucie again。 He still told Lucie about his love， although he knew it was useless。 He just wanted her to know it， as he said，“I want you to know that you are my last dream in my life。 ”

Many times， love is a thing about only one person。 “I love you。”------It’s my business， not yours。

So when Carton showed his deep love to Lucie， I suddenly felt that this man was so lovely and deserved to beloved。

“Remember always there’s a man who could give his life to you， or anyone you love。” Carton left with these words。 But all of these seemed a sign of misfortune。

From then on， I came to understand how profound his love was。 No doubt that it is the most moving love words in the world。 Although you don’t love me， I am still there for you or your beloved though thick and thin。

But I knew in this story， Carton was bound to a tragic role。 So when I saw he only left a view of his back in her wedding， there was a plex mood appearing slowly in my heart。

Some years passed。 When Lucie appeared in the front of Carton， she became a mother。 This time， Lucie’s face was filled with anxiety。 Because Charles was in prison and would be killed soon。 What lead to this was the plicated and filthy past。

From the point， the dirty of society was reflected。 It was the sorrow in that period。 But they must pay for this sorrow。 So it was the time that Carton achieved his permission。 “I told you once， for you I would do anything。 I will。 ” He said。

At the last moment， he and Charles exchanged。 That they had the same face helped them at the second time。 When Lucie and her family left without knowing the truth， Carton， instead of Charles， went to be killed。

How can we evaluate his action? We can’t say anything about it because all what he did was out of love。

As he said to the young girl who panied him before died， “If we have no fear， we can be calm all the way。” He was so calm to greet what would be ing soon， for she would get her happiness and he loved her forever。

“It is a far， far better thing that I do， than I have ever done; it is a far， far better rest that I go to than I have ever known。” With her face rising before his eyes， he went to execution ground calmly。

It is “A Tale of Two Cities”， also a tale of Sydney Carton。

I wrote this after reading this literature, it was so wonderful that I could not restrain my excitement. In particular, when reading the last two or three chapters, the hazy, misty plots slowly seem to have been cleared by the light of the first sunlight and the fog of the fog. No wonder the author, Charles Dickens, said that he was "deeply moved and excited" by the novel and longed to play Sidney carton on the stage himself. Sidney, in my opinion, caton is indeed a can let a person "deeply moved, very excited, though, I began to he didn't play very interested, just a wild gentleman; The scene of the last brother and sister heading off to the guillotine really made me cry. In particular, the final message, which includes the ending of the novel, reveals the character of Sidney carton and the goodness of human nature. "What I've done is the best and the best thing I've ever done. What I am about to receive will be the most peaceful and peaceful rest of my life. It's really a tear-jerker.

First, a little personal opinion about the characters.

The first one is jarvis lorry. From the back, he was a dedicated banker who was extremely loyal to the bank and to his friend Alexander manette. He has been at the bank for at least a few decades, and from the author's witty description of "the various dark cabinets in tellson's bank, some elderly old men are working hard. When tellson's, hired a young man in London, they always hide he has been in the old, like a piece of cheese hid him in a dark corner, until he was with complete sets of tellson flavour, full of stains or mold." And you can see that. All that matters to him is the care and help of his old friends. I remember writing in the article that he could put aside his work for an old friend. And the morbidity of her father after lucie's marriage made Mr. Lorry very uneasy: "Mr. Lorry's life was as good as ever, and his hopes grew dim, and his mood increased." "And Mr. Lorry, exhausted by his anxious day and night, fell asleep on duty." "But then he suddenly began to suspect that he was still dreaming." It was to the extent of exhaustion that he could see how deep his friendship was with his friends. And, finally, if it were not for lowry, for they are prepared to travel relatively comfortable through the acceptance, with light behind a terrified woman, a man who fainted, a small child, a delirious elderly, again how also escape not escape from the so-called "people" clutches.

One more figure is Lucy. Her own appearance has already determined that she is a compassionate and weak and strong woman. For her father, who had been imprisoned for eighteen years, she helped him through difficult times with her love. First back to her father to help him out of the bondage of the body, for the father of the deep into his mind is not on a regular basis the suffering of the memory, only she can the fastest, the most gentle comfort living father's uncertain heart, this is a helpless old friends lowry. There is to testify in court, she fairly with affection, "in the face of such compassion, so moving youth and beauty, at this time the mood of the defendant, than face all the people watching more uncomfortable." And so on, and so forth; When she finally kissed her husband, she stuck to it, as strong as anyone who faced tragedy. She was still a bit of a backer, but she was the embodiment of love.

She said that her father had to be mentioned. Alexander manette's life is worth considering, how much injustice, how much experience, how much trauma, all make us think. After being cared for by his daughter, he was equally able to give back to his daughter. He finally showed the story of a father who cared about his daughter with love. Likewise, I think he has his great misfortune. It, life is very rough, and eventually to really bring happiness for the daughter, relapse, full house for his work, is at this time, he felt old and helpless. One tragedy leads to another.

For darnay, the man, in general, pursued his mother's philosophy and "set off a series of events" (which is not a repudiation of him). He was also a kind man, and because of this he went back to his family and he was in trouble. This is also the result of a complex set of causes.

One of the most legendary and tearful is Sidney carton. The appearance of "always looking at the ceiling" shows his dissolute, and later we find out that he is really an annihilated talent, who is unable to dissolve into the society at that time. Inner feelings also very noble, is ultimately fulfilled the rival in love (let's just say so, but they haven't think they really like the story of the relationship between the bucket over, well, here also see his calm, may be installed? If it is, it means he has a lot of talent. That's an admirable person. He didn't care what he did when he escaped, but he was the only one who knew what to do and what not to do. The death of darnay and his wife, in memory of his death is a matter of god! Finally he met in his sister's, on the execution ground, comfort, encouragement, his sister, is a look at all the detachment of life, the novel also wrote "that night, the city of Paris about him, say on the calendar year, Laura pavilion the most calm. Many also say that he has a holy face, like a prophet's prophet. The character of the book is very exciting, such as in going to jail for up to jailbreak before and after Mr Lowry confessed, "caton into the yard, there alone for a moment, looked up at her house lights. He blessed him softly and said, 'goodbye forever,' and vanished into the darkness. While I was reading this, I was vaguely aware that something was wrong, but I could not think of anything that would change because of the fact that he had told him to wait for him. This sentence is a little sad, want to make a person cry but not let a person cry out of taste. This is the description of carton's heart, beneath the surface of the light, the heart of a man who is devoted to the love of others.

The villain, especially madame Defarge, can be said to be an old man of revenge under the guise of the people. Her most common movement was knitting, without saying a word, but everything was in her heart, and she remembered it on her knitting. People like this have a feeling of fear of her, a cold, unhuman embodiment. The Jacques three around them, the vengeful woman, and so on, were all in a state of confusion, only to feel the pleasure of cutting off the heads of others. They did not, at all, have the same kind of consciousness as madame DE senor, but the desecration of life, from their messy appearance and corrupt manners. He wanted to overthrow the king, but there was a certain amount of affection for the old master he had served before. His wife said to her, her husband, "honest want to save the doctor a" visible, hair, still can hardly is neutral, but it forced him to host a begin, he is living in the contradiction, may be affected by his revenge heart strong wife.

Suspense, the novel is full, it is the more see more understand, like a stream seriatim together, finally became a great river pentium, make a person more see more exciting, more want to see. For example, the most prominent is the second chapter 6 "hundreds of people" and chapter 7, "marquis master in the city" has nothing to do, if the chapter 7, alone can also be a novel. Until later see that he is to reach in life, then saw Lucy, then saw his relationship to the old physician, and finally with the doctor's letter, complex relationships take in everything in a glance, to expound characters relations, has a good supporting role. Undoubtedly, the last two chapters are the climax, the most exciting part. The last brother and sister were more than I had imagined, and the author's arrangement clearly highlighted carton, who was a symbol of justice. Now, calm down and think about why all the siblings are locked inside. I think the most fundamental reason is that this revolution in the author's eye itself is chaotic, there is no human rights, crazy people just follow their own will, that ultimately leads to tragedy.

After all, this work is a good and evil confrontation, the victory of good, an exciting end. Let us ponder whether the revenge is worth doing, but the revenge of madame DE sendai is not made in a day, in response to the dead brother, sister, and father; It is the brand of class struggle that inevitably forms the concept of revenge and makes her cold character. At the end of the day, there is a certain responsibility for all aspects, and the social environment is an inseparable factor.

Generally speaking, this is a very good novel.

It turns out that the French people I've been bemoaning are not as perfect as I thought they were, and in this book they show more of the evil nature of their revolution.

"A tale of two cities" is hailed as the most outstanding representative of the French revolution, and I think the biggest reason may be because it is different. Unlike other works, such as Carlisle's "the French revolution", dickens was more concerned with the joys and sorrows of the people at the bottom. In those days, though, the little figures themselves did not draw the world's attention. But the author's keen capture of these little figures and the great revolution is inextricably linked, and arguably the French revolution itself was inspired by the power of the little people.

The French revolution was a mark of blood in human history. In that chaotic era, full of uncertainty; In such a state of disorder, all human nature is revealed. A tale of two cities by the French revolution as the background, through to race hatred between civilians and conflict, the author want to convey the dickens -- - unable to wash away hatred, blood cannot replace love -- - more aristocratic tyranny to civilians caused pain will not heal, because blood civilians to hatred cannot replace love for lost relatives. In the story, Dr Menet was freed from prison to live with his daughter in London.

Five years later, they testified in court for the French youth, Charles Darnay, who married darnay in love. In 1792, the French revolution broke out and the scene moved to France. Darnay, who had been arrested and sentenced to death for being a descendant of the aristocracy, had been in love with Lucy's English youth, Sidney, at the critical moment. Carton took the guillotine for him. Carden is one of the most attractive and complex characters in the book. Decadent, negative, at school, he only writes homework for classmates; After society, even with all the talent, it still chose to work for another lawyer. But beneath his cold exterior, there was a deep tenderness.

With this a welcome tenderness and love for Lucy, cardan made a significant decision - - instead of the guillotine dyer that -- - with his own life in exchange for another person's life, in return for a family's happiness and smile. It was the act of carden guarding Lucy, sacrificing for love, how noble it was in that great age, even in modern times! Compared with the tenderness and love of the representative, Mrs. Dofstone was a symbol of bloodshed and bloodshed. The death of a loved one in the hands of darnay's father and uncle, she lived for a lifetime of hatred; For the death of darnay's family, he had no need of it, and at last he was killed by a fire. The bloodlust of Mrs. Dauphin was a terrible shock, but it also made people sigh the power of hate, and make the woman who should be happy and happy to be the Nemesis. At the end of the eighteenth century, France was burned into asurra hell by this perverse and vengeful flame. Lessons and meanings cannot be forgotten by the years. If we can't get something out of it, the same tragedy will happen again. Two hundred years later, we hope that we can create a new century of true equality, freedom and fraternity in this generation.

双城记英文读后感范文 第二十三篇

Recently I read a novel called A Tale of Two Cities。 The novel is based on the French Revolution。 It was 1775，both England and France were on the verge of Revolution 。England's king ，George Ⅲ，was having trouble with his American colonies 。And France 's king ，Louis， was too concerned with his own wealth to worry about his people 。

Therefore， neither king noticed the changes taking place in his country 。They didn't realize ，or care ，that the peasants were hungry and unhappy 。They never thought that anything was wrong with the way things were 。They were wealthy ，and they thought only of themselves。

But the peasants were tired of being treated unfairly。 They were tired of watching the kings waste money while their own children starved。 So， in both London and Paris， the lower classes prepared to revolt 。They were ready to force the kings to make a change。

Then one day in July of 1789， the Revolution began in France 。Armed peasants ran through the streets of Saint Antoine 。Their leader， Ernest Defarge continued to pass out weapons。 The men cheered and waved their weapons in the air 。Then， they marched toward the Bastille。

The novel also talks the story of two men， Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton。， who look similar but are very different in personality。 Darnay is a romantic French aristocrat， his uncle is the Marquis St。

Evremonde。 The Marquis is infamous for his cruelty。 While is a cynical English barrister。 However， the two are in love with the same woman， Lucie Manette。

Charles Darnay is not cruel like his uncle has been。 When he knew his servant is in danger， he went to France at once to defend him。 He had promised his mother that he would help the peasants。 He had a hard time traveling through France。 When he finally reached Paris， he was taken prisoner。 In my point of view， Charles Darnay is innocent， he is not cruel。

The other one is Sydney Carton。

In my opinion， he is a wonderful man。 He once said，‘I am not worthy of your love， but I want you to know that I wish for your happiness。 I hope that we will able to remain close friends。 Miss Manette， I would give my life for you。 Never forget that， Lucie。’ Eventually， he was to die in Charles Darnay’s place。 Because Charles Darnay is Lucie’s husband， and they led a happy life。 In order to help Lucie live a enjoyable life， he was to die in Charles Darnay’s place。

From the novel 'A tale of two cities '。I learn much ，not only the Revolution in two different cities ，but also the deep relationship between people 。I'm impressed by Mr。 Manette's tough spirit ，never give in to difficulties 。Even though he had been imprisoned a long time ，he struggled to live。 He was also an upright man 。When his son -in -law was arrested by the Revolutionists， Dr。Manette strongly defended Charles Darnay ，hoped that the Revolutionists could release Charles Darnay 。

Lucie Manette gives me a deep impression 。At the beginning of the novel， I learn that her father had passed， but then，Mr。 Lorry told her that her father was still alive。 Because Lucie 's father was imprisoned for a long time 。Her mother begged the king to help her ，but he gave no reply 。She suffered terribly when her husband disappeared ，so she told her daughter that her father had died 。But she never stopped looking for Lucie's father 。The king was of no help ，and she never found even one clue 。Two years after his disappearance ，she died 。

I am deeply impressed by the other characters in the novel。

Mr。Lorry is also a good man ，at the first of the novel ，when he met Miss Lucie ，and told her that her father was still alive 。Besides ，he helped her

to find her father in Paris 。On the way to Paris ，they experienced many difficulties 。But Mr。Lorry didn't give up helping Miss Lucie and Lucie 's father 。As far as I concerned ，it not only show his hospitality but also show his hatred to the European royal。

In Paris， the Marquis St。 Evrémonde， Darnay's uncle， is returning from an audience with Monseigneur， one of the 'greatest lords in France'， when his coach runs over and kills the son of the peasant Gaspard; he throws a coin to Gaspard to pensate him for his loss; in the assembled crowd is the implacable tricoteuse， Madame Defarge。 He throws the money back， enraging the Marquis and leading him to exclaim that he would willingly kill any of the peasants of France。

If I were a peasant at that time in England or France，I would join in the revolution with no hesitation 。All man are equal 。The king of country should concern his people whether they are starving or homeless 。We can learn much from history in our country or in other countries ，only when the leader of the country cares much about his people's life can the country be stronger 。People are the base of the country ，without people ，country can not be stronger and can not develop。

Today, I finally read the book of two cities by the British writer Charles Dickens. After reading this book, I was in a long mood.

Novels in the 18th century French revolution as the background, the story will be in Paris, London, link up the two big cities, a narrative horse nate doctor is full of love and adventure, interspersed with the noble's cruelty, people's anger, trial spy... It mainly reveals the social order of the British and French in that period, and the life of the nobles and the ordinary people.

The book focuses on the fact that poor Dr Manette, who had been imprisoned in the bastille for 19 years by the aristocracy, had his daughter taken to live in England. In court, the father and daughter met the French nobleman darley and the poor master carton. Later, manette's daughter Lucy and darley married, and after ten years of happy family life, caton also gave Lucy a promise to make Lucy happy.

The people living in poor and helpless, cold and hunger, the plight of poor sickness repeatedly, suffered oppression, their hearts a backlog of deep and deep hatred of nobility, finally triggered the French revolution to overthrow the regime, for freedom. After the outbreak of the French revolution, darley went to France to defend his innocent servant, but he was arrested for being a French aristocrat. And carton, in order to make the promise of lucie's life happy, used him to be similar to darley, and, before he was sentenced to death, he replaced him with Dudley, and replaced him with the guillotine.

The dark ages have passed, the days of hope and light have come, and the darkness is terrible! At first, the world belongs to the king, and later, the world belongs to the people. On July 13, 1789, the people stormed the bastille, where political prisoners were held; On January 21, 1793, the revolution brought king Louis xvi to the guillotine, which symbolized the end of feudal rule. On 20 February 1793, the first republic of France was established.

The 18th century, full of darkness and oppression, is gone, and the miserable life of the people is over. We have ushered in the 21st century, which is to be bathed in hope, and the long years from that era to today are as brief as they were yesterday. I think that the spirit of carton is worthy of our study, he is affectionate, he keeps his promise, in order to fulfill his promise to Lucy, at all costs, including precious life.

The people of today will never let history repeat itself, nor will history repeat itself. Let us live each day and make our 21st century more glorious!

双城记英文读后感范文 第二十六篇

A Tale of Two Cities is one of Dickens’s masterpieces; the story is an exposure of the contradiction before France Revolution-the appealing of “Liberty, Equality, Fraternity” by France lower class.

The main clue of the novel is based on the terrible experience of Dr. Manette, the plot is very complex, attracting, and exciting. Lying at the heart of which we can see the themes from different people.

Sydney Carton

When I read the chapter pertaining to interrogation on Charles Darney, intuition tells that the lawyer assistant who feels at ease with his eyes fixed on the ceiling must be a very special man, which turned out to be right when I finished the whole book. He seems indifferent about everything, even his love. He is brilliant but he thinks otherwise, or rather, he thinks he is inferior to others. Even his master thinks that if he worried about this or that, he would make a great success. Feeling of humbleness is the fatal point leading the loss of his beloved one. If Lucie Manette lives with him, he thinks, she would sustain much hardship. At the end of the story, he sacrifices his life for his love willingly.

Many people say that love is selfish and egocentric, but the temperament of Sydney Carton tells us that love can be sublime and pure. Through this, Dickens tells us loving someone doesn’t mean you should live together with him or her. You can help your beloved one silently, even sacrifice for love. This is universal fraternity, I think, which is the sublimation of normal love. And also, Dickens may indicate that true love really exists, regardless of the situation is full of commotion or not.

Charles Darney

He’s born at a family of royal lineage-the son of Marquis. Regret and abomination fill in his mind for the cruelty and the crime his family have done to the poor. He determines to quit the right of inheritance of his family and moves to England to acting as a French teacher. When he comes back to France, his notorious and sadistic uncle who holds the succession of the family doesn’t welcome him. His uncle is doomed to death because of his cruelty. When he returns to England, he proposes marriage to Lucie Manette. He knows his proposal may not be accepted by , for he is the son of the enemy of . After the France Revolution breaks out, he returns to France again to save a servant. But unfortunately, he’s cast into prison.

Lucie Manette

She goes to France with Jarvis Lorry to take her father back, she shows great sympathy to Sydney Carton, and she prayed his husband would get an early deliverance from captivity.

She is a kind-hearted lady made of love and sympathy; she is also the incarnation of elegance.

As a victim of the gloom society, he lives a miserable and contradictory life. After releasing from prison, the only thing he does is making shoes, which become worse when he comes across a harsh situation. He loves his daughter just as she does to him, even when he knows that Charles Darney is the son of his enemy, he allow the proposal. And when he notices his daughter was totally down to know the fact that her husband was put into prison, he promise to her that he will rescue him out. He spares no effects to do that, in vain, though.

From this person, Dickens may tells that love between the lower-class family members are as pure as crystal.

Jarvis Lorry

An elderly manager at Tellsons Bank and a dear friend of Dr. Manette. He is very loyal to Dr. Manette. He accompanies them all the time without considering his own life.

Couple Defarge

They’re the leader of the revolution. Ernest Defarge, to some extent, is a good man. He was the servant of , he provides accommodation for him. But his wife, Madame Defarge, is really a wicked woman. She knits all the time, she wants to kill all the people who lead a richer or happier life just out of envying and revenge. The result turns out to be dramatic: she’s killed by herself as a consequence that the gun goes off by accident.

Resurrection maybe is the main theme in the novel. Dickens here implied that he doesn’t agree the upper class treat the poor badly, meanwhile, he doesn’t agree the lower-class to overthrow the upper class. He hopes that they can live in harmony with each other. Underneath the lines, Dickens wants his readers to be careful that the same sort of revolution that so damaged France wont happen in Britain, which is shown to be nearly as unjust as France. But his warning is addressed not to the British lower classes, but to the aristocracy. He repeatedly uses the metaphor of sowing and reaping; if the aristocracy continues to plant the seeds of a revolution through behaving unjustly, they can be certain of harvesting that revolution in time. The lower classes do not have any agency in this metaphor: they simply react to the behavior of the aristocracy. In this sense it can be said that while Dickens sympathizes with the poor, he identifies with the rich: they are the books audience, its "us" rather than its "them". Crush humanity out of shape once more, under similar hammers, and it will twist itself into the same tortured forms. Sow the same seed of rapacious license and oppression over again and it will surely yield the same fruit according to its kind.

双城记英文读后感范文 第二十七篇

“It was the best of times, and it was the worst of times. It was the age of wisdom, and it was the age of foolishness. It was the epoch of belief, and it was the epoch of incredu-lity. It was the season of light, and it was the season of darkness. It was the spring of hope, and it was the winter of despair. We had everything before us, and we had nothing before us. We were all going direct to Heaven, and we were all going direct the other way. In short, the period was so far like the present period. That some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of parison only. ”

With the beginning of above words, Dickens told us a love story called “A Tale of Two Cities”, which is one of his most important representative works. The novel profoundly exposed the society contradiction before the French Revolution, intensely attacks the aristocratic social class is dissolute and cruel, and sincerely sympathizes with the depressed classes. The novel also described many magnificent scenes like the revolt people attacked Bastille and so on, which displayed peoples great strength.

The novel has portrayed many different people. Doctor Manette is honest and kind but suffers the persecution actually , Lucie is beautiful and gentle ,Charles is graceful and noble,Lorry is upright and honest ,Sydney is semblance of indifferent, innermost feelings of warm, unconventional but also selfless and lofty,Miss Pross is straightforward and loyal,Evremonde brothers are cruel and sinister. The plex hatred is hard to solve, the cruel revenge has made more hatreds, loves rebirth in the hell edge, but take the life as the price.

Among many different kinds of people in the story, it is Sydney Carton who impressed me most.

I can’t describe my feeling at the first sight of him. To tell the truth, he was not eye-catching at that time. When the readers were immersed in the meeting between Lucie and Charles, he only played a little role as a lawyer who had the same face with Charles and extricated him from accusation through this point.

Then they went to drink. Without scruple, Carton expressed his dislike to Charles. Yes, they had the same face. But they were different. Carton was a little lawyer, while Charles was a successful man. Carton was quite free and easy, while Charles was graceful and noble. In fact, they were absolutely two distinctive men except for their appearance. Certainly, what Carton cared about was not the wealth or the position, but the love of Lucie. He realized that Lucie loved Charles, so he was barely out of control at that time.

Every time I read this part, I could feel his sincerity and broad-minded. By no means would he say a lie. He must tell you what he thinks in the heart. It is Sydney Carton, a true man.

After a short time, he can’t resist himself going to see Lucie. But when he stepped into the small forest, he saw Lucie and Charles getting together happily. He didn’t rush towards them, however, he returned without a word. Though he had a period of depression after that, he was clear who Lucie loved was not him. So what he only would do was to bless her.

Some days later, he came to meet Lucie again. He still told Lucie about his love, although he knew it was useless. He just wanted her to know it, as he said,“I want you to know that you are my last dream in my life. ”

Many times, love is a thing about only one person. “I love you.”--It’s my business, not yours.

So when Carton showed his deep love to Lucie, I suddenly felt that this man was so lovely and deserved to beloved.

“Remember always there’s a man who could give his life to you, or anyone you love.” Carton left with these words. But all of these seemed a sign of misfortune.

From then on, I came to understand how profound his love was. No doubt that it is the most moving love words in the world. Although you don’t love me, I am still there for you or your beloved though thick and thin.

But I knew in this story, Carton was bound to a tragic role. So when I saw he only left a view of his back in her wedding, there was a plex mood appearing slowly in my heart.

Some years passed. When Lucie appeared in the front of Carton, she became a mother. This time, Lucie’s face was filled with an__ety. Because Charles was in prison and would be killed soon. What lead to this was the plicated and filthy past.

From the point, the dirty of society was reflected. It was the sorrow in that period. But they must pay for this sorrow. So it was the time that Carton achieved his permission. “I told you once, for you I would do anything. I will. ” He said.

At the last moment, he and Charles exchanged. That they had the same face helped them at the second time. When Lucie and her family left without knowing the truth, Carton, instead of Charles, went to be killed.

How can we evaluate his action? We can’t say anything about it because all what he did was out of love.

As he said to the young girl who panied him before died, “If we have no fear, we can be calm all the way.” He was so calm to greet what would be ing soon, for she would get her happiness and he loved her forever.

“It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known.” With her face rising before his eyes, he went to execution ground calmly.

It is “A Tale of Two Cities”, also a tale of Sydney Carton.

Recently, I read a tale of two cities. I think that it’s a good novel.

First, I want to introduce the author of this book .His name is Charles Dickens, he is an outstanding writer. He is one of the greatest writers in the 19 century. However, he had a painful childhood. He was arrested when he was 10 years old due to household debt. He had only a few years of learning. So, in his early years, his works are more about the painful children. He criticized the black of capitalism and had the sympathy for the poor. Now, let me introduce this novel. The background of this book is the French revolution. Before the revolution, the young doctor .Manette witnessed the guilty of the French marquis. So he was arrested in the Bastille by the marquis. After two years, his wife died. His daughter Lucie was send to London by his friends Lorry and adopted by the Miss Pross who is a maidservant. After 18 years, he was released from the Bastille and was taken care by his old servant Defarge. His daughter wanted to take his father to London. In the travel, she met the son of the marquis Charles Darnay who hated the guilty of his father and uncle. Then they loved each other. And now, Charles Dannay’s father had died, so manette wanted to forget the painful memory and hoped his daughter happy. So he agreed with them. In 1789, France break the revolution. All of the marquises was send to the guillotine. Because the Darnay was a marquis. So the Defarge read the report which was written by the doctor. Then Dannay was sentenced to death. Now Carton who always hidden loved Lucie went to the prison and he pretended Dannay. So Dannay escaped the prison. And carton was killed. However Madame Defarge still not gave up. She wanted to killed Dannay’s wife Lucie and their young child; finally she was burned by the pross.

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.

In the ordinary in the novel, I saw a lot of different people, honest good matei, doctors, Lucy beautiful generous, elegant noble, loyal Charles lowry, distorts the life of Germanys wife, appearance indifference, inner passion Sidney, gracious miss PuLuoShi, cruel and wicked Mr Howe brothers.

In this book the author distorts the history, uglifies the feudal aristocracy, the fact is not completely. Many scenarios, such as the horse knight doctors have imprisoned blank warrant, are risking their lives to save Charles still, a doctor, the leader of the people of Britain for fear of the other countries, said: "the French nobility oppress people". In order to buy off chert, with high status and wealth, he did not lose his money, and he improved the story of the tireless efforts of the oppressed.

The main expression is love and kindness, reflecting good and evil boobs, love and hate, and finally the author says, "love always conquers hate". Evil is always a flash in the pan, and all must die with the evil one, and the good is everlasting.

It reveals the social aspect of England comprehensively; The darkness of parliamentary politics, the doting of the ruling institutions, the evils of the money society, the poverty of the masses.

With a story to deal with their contemporaries called for the authorities and the public, tyranny would cause violence, crisis near in the day, the rich should have merciful, bleeding can cause more more blood flow.

A Tale of Two Cities was written by Charles Dickens, who was born in Portsmouth, England in 1812. As the second of eight children, Dickens had to go to work at the age of twelve to support his poor family, and he lived a difficult childhood. This troublesome time scarred him deeply and provided him with substantial material for such stories as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations. Though just accepted only little education, Dickens became a famous writer through his struggling self-learning and extremely hard work, and he was the representative writer of realism in the 19th century.

Charles Dickens lived in the period of transition between feudalism and capitalism, when the industrial revolution originated in England swept through Europe. As large numbers of workers invaded into urban centers to earn a living, the bourgeois took advantages of the surplus of labor by keeping wages low. The poor thus remained poor, and often lived in a narrow and filthy environment. Dickens’ writing depicted various directions about this society, and provided a keen, sympathetic chronicle of the plight of the urban poor.

A Tale of Two Cities mainly about the great atrocities of French aristocrats compelled the poor citizens to resist violently. Doctor Manette spent eighteen years as a prisoner in Bastille because he intended to expose the atrocity after learning that

Marquis Evrémonde killed a beautiful farmwife and her younger brother because of his brother’s lust. After Doctor Manette was free again, his daughter Lucie got married with Charles Darnay, Marquis Evrémonde’s nephew, but chose to live in England because he could not accept the cruel injustices of the French social system and the snobbish and cruel values of his uncle. However, Marquis Evrémonde continued his atrocities. After his crazy carriage crushed over a farmer’s little baby as if nothing happen, he was killed at night. A revolutionary storm was brewing. Mr. and were the revolutionaries in the poor Saint Antoine section of Paris. They wanted to kill all French aristocrats, including Charles Darnay. used to be Doctor Manette’s servant, so he was kind to Manettes, while his wife’s heart burned with longing for revenge. At last, Charles Darnay was judged to death, But Sydney Carton, a lawyer who loved Lucie deeply, willing to die instead of Darnay, as they had similar appearance.

From my personal point of view, the person A Tale of Two Cities described astounded me very much. Some of them were cruel, crazy and reasonless, while some of them were kind, moral and had own mind.

Sydney Carton was the person I thought the most. He was a smart attorney, without his help, Mr. Stryver could not solve any cases. But he was lazy, alcoholic, and cared nothing and nobody, he even could not find any interests in his own life, it seems that he lived just for wasting life. But he loved Lucie deeply. Finally, he became a hero, because he sacrificed his life to save Darnay. I didn’t know why the author spent so many words to form such a strange guy at frist, he used his life to love Lucie, after all. But now, I caught it. Perhaps the terrible Carton symbolized the terrible old France, and his change in the end shown that everything could change, including the old France, a new and fine society would replace the violence.

Then, Charles Darnay. He was worthy of esteem or respect. He displayed great virtue in his rejection of his uncle, Marquis Evrémonde. Money and power meant nothing to him, if they came from exploitation and oppression. Even though he had to inherit his uncle’s bequest, he left them to the poor and lived in London throught his own effort. When he realized that he must go back to Paris to help Gabelle, one of his servants, and make right the wrong his uncle had done, he acted without hesitation because he knew that was his duty. He even refused Carton’s help after he was judged to death. I thought, Charles Darnay was a shiny diamond in that cruel and violent society, and he was a hope, the hope of equality and peace.

Third, . How crazy this woman was. Nobody could stop her steps toward revenge, except the death. Although it said that wherever there is oppression, there is resistance, I didn’t agree with totally. Her resistance was inhumane, insensible and endless. For just as the aristocracy’s oppression had made an oppressor herself, so will her oppression, in turn, make oppressors her victims. In the end of the novel, her death by a bullet from her own gun. It shown the author’s belief that inordinate retaliated lust would destroy one own self.

On the whole, A Tale of Two Cities is a successful novel. It shows us oppression and resistance, violence and terror, revolution and vengeance, love and friendship.

I am lucky enough to live in the 21st century, when peace and development are pursued all along. Nowadays, there also are many problems and dissensions among this world, but violence does not the best way problems are solved. Violence just creates more problems, something every sensible person knows. What we need are talks and communication. The time A Tale of Two Cities mentions has gone, we should do enough preparation to adapt the coming age.

The tale of two cities is a historical story， one of Dickens’ long fictions。The background to the novel is the revolution of France 。It portrayed a brutal and bloody story ， but it also contained love and friendship。搞笑说说大全

In the novel， Dickens sarcastically described a typical cruel nobleman—marquis of Evermonde 。 When he was young he and his brother stole a countrywoman by force and killed her family 。What’s worse ， he used his power to imprison Dr Manette ， a kind and honest man who knew all the things they had done and wanted to disclose their crimes 。 In order to hide their crimes。 Marquis of Evermonde and his brother threw Doctor Manette into prison for 18 years 。 During these 18 years，Doctor Manette lost his freedom and suffer a great in spirit 。

I felt unthinkable that Marquis of Evermonde and his brother killed people just as easily as they killed chickens。 They deprived other people’s freedom as they liked and they thought it was normal and unremarkable。 They had never realized that they had done something wrong or something improper。 Because their nature was cruel and evil， like demons。 There is an old saying which means: People who mit too many crimes will kill themselves。 After all， there is justice in the world。 The demons can’t be rampant forever。 Because the world will not forgive them。 They will pay their lives for their crimes。 Let’s see the consequence of the Marquis，’’He lay there like a stone with a knife pushed into his heart。” I think it was just what he ought to gain and it is a real exciting scene。

The Marquis’ death was just the beginning of people’s resistance to the nobleman。 Gradually more and more people joined in the revolution。 One after another nobleman were sentenced to death and their heads were cut down 。 However， some innocent people were implicated in the revolution。 Charles Darney was one of them He was the nephew of Marquis of Evermonde。 To the opposite of his uncle， Darney was a kind and independent young man。

Dickens spoke highly of kindness mercy and love in the novel too。 This is the other thone of the novel when Doctor Manette was released from prison。 It was his daughter Lucie who took care of him and helped him return to normal。 During this time， Dr manette and Lucie knew Charles Darney and Sydeny Carton， the two young man fell in love with Lucie at the same time 。 At last， Lucie married Chares Darney 。Dr Manette accepted Darney as his son-in-law although he knew that Darney was the nephew of the man who threw him into prison for18 years。 This is the love between father and daughter。 And Sydeny Carton ， the very great man ，loved Lucie deeply。 He promised Lucie that he would do everything for her happiness。 He did it truely ，he sacrificed himself instead of Darney who looked the same as him。 This is love for lovers 。 This is the most wonderful thing in the world。 It also reminds us that no matter how no matter when there is true love e__sting。 At the end ， Lucie， Dr Manette and Darney arri保护地球的标语

ved in England safely。

The tale of two cities is different from other historical fictions。 Its characters and main plots are fictional under the real background of the revolution of France。 The author made the experience of the fictional charactor Dr Manette as the main clue。The plots are plicated， and they are flexuous and dramatic。 The structure is plete and rigorous。

Dickens had dear love and hate。 He praised those who ought to be praised and attacked those who ought to be attacked。 The motivation of the novel maybe just warn the English dominators。 But I think we can learn something meaningful from the tale of two cities。

Impression after reading Ode to a nightingale

After reading Ode to a nightingale, I felt my blood boiled, I was on fire and full of enthusiasm and just could not calm down. It is so romantic and I had been touched so much. In fact, although the title of the poem is “Ode to a nightingale”, throughout the poem, it has basically little words describing the nightingale directly however the writer mainly uses the graceful image of nightingale to express his own feelings. It is said that a nightingale will die on a full moon night. And at midnight, it will fly to the highest rose-tree, and uses the thorn scratch its chest, then makes out a sonorous sound, singing loudly until the blood of the heart dries and reds the roses on the branches. Meanwhile this sound of singing seems like could penetrate everywhere and everything and keep an eternal life. I see the energy and hope of life and a bright future, and suddenly get courage and become positive. I think the poem makes me feel in that way.

And the author of Ode to nightingale is John Keats who is a Romantic Poet from UK. He was born at a poor family in the end of 18 century in London. In 1818, when Keats was 23 years old he got tuberculosis while also was deeply in love with Miss Fannie Boone. Just under such a terrible condition which between agony, poverty and sweetness, Keats was quite enthusiastic, full of grief and indignation and kept the desire for life in his heart. Therefore, he wrote the poem Ode to a Nightingale on a sober night and companied with the loud sound of the birds.

It is acknowledged that the poet was in difficulties and tied out however at this time he heard the nightingale’s loud singing like an inspiring ring. His heart was moved by such sound of singing. I remember the poem was written like this, “That I may drink, and leave the world unseen, and with thee fade away into the forest dim. Fade far away, dissolve, and quite forget what thou amongst the leaves hast never known, The weariness, the fever, and the fret Here, where men sit and hear each other groan; Where palsy shakes a few, sad, last grey hairs.” The soft night and beautiful surroundings make Keats feel comfortable and enjoyable. Even though he does not know the names of the flowers, he feels them by heart and soul. What’ more, he absorbs in this world and hope he can always live in such a place where is far from that dark society. Ode to a Nightingale has a clear feature of romance, Keats uses perfect metaphors, gorgeous and quite fluent words to express his strong ideas and deep desire to free world. And I consider the British romance style reaches perfection from Keats.

This holiday, I used my spare time to read dickenss "a tale of two cities", also have some understanding, I will write down my feelings.

1. Plot arrangement.

The plot of this book is very mysterious, and the author concatenates all kinds of clues, as mentioned in the article, "weaving" becomes the novel. The greatest feature of the novel is the complexity of the characters, such as the relationship between Dr Manette and danan; The relationship between Mrs D urberge and dannan - the two relations directly led to the final tragedy. And the relationship between Mr. Lorry and Mr. DE hair, and the relationship between the pass and the spy, and so on. These complex figures link the work of this book.

One of the most distinctive chapters of the book is a conversation with a little girl before his death, which thoroughly reveals that the revolutionary masses are too crazy and that the good will live on for ever.

2. Characters.

The most important character in the book is Charles daran (evmond). He was a very conflicted man, and he hated his father and uncle very much, but he had to support the whole family business. So when the old servant wrote to him, he had to return to France. He was a kind man, possessed of the civility of a nobleman, and when he met his uncle, he made it clear that he could not persecute the people. At the same time, he gave up the privileges of the nobility, which was a good deed.

Sydney Carton was also an important figure. I have never liked this casual, lazy character in the first half of the novel. But in the process of reading later, I found him to be an aggressive and resourceful person. Although it is "friend", but actually caton and south relationship is not so good, but for the sake of the family happiness drops of life, caton willing to the guillotine, let fled south, and the embodiment of the eternal good. In the article, carton died "like a prophet".

Mr And Mrs D arge also belong to the books focus. He was a good man, and he took Dr Manette, and told his wife after the revolution that he would accept it. She was an avenger, and she had been persecuted by the evremonde brothers, so she wanted to kill all the French aristocrats. Of course, because of her violent behaviour, she died in the hands of miss pross.

3. Writing features.

This novel is very humorous, and the author has been using dialectical relations and repeated techniques to achieve this effect. Therefore, this touching novel can still be read with great laughter.

One of the features of the article is that the last author "helps carton express his feelings". The author used catons language to show the end of the article, telling people that "kindness is forever in the world".

Thats how I read the novel.

双城记英文读后感范文 第三十八篇

I have recently seen Dickenss "the tale of Shuangcheng".

The revolution is good and bad. In the case of oppression and exploitation become aggravated, the revolution is right. Blood for blood, is the oppressed of the heartfelt voice, is the cry of the soul. When Mrs. Defarges family was destroyed, she was right to revenge, and she wanted to retaliate against the wicked, and not to blame. But retaliatory retaliation for a kind - hearted person like Charles is a deep thought. The fire should not continue to burn, retaliation should not be unrestricted, it is worth thinking. In fact, not only the French Revolution, all the revolutions have been overheated. In many cases, class opposition is blind and unjustified. The indiscriminate indiscriminate killing of a black tornado like Li Kui, like, not as long as the people of Liangshan, the Lun axe cut off line, there is no reason. You know, there are good people in the enemy, and we have bad eggs inside. Dogmatism in dealing with things, can only make things bad, only add to evil.

Good and evil are constantly transformed. A rich villain bully you, he is wrong, but if you think that all the rich are bad, then you are wrong. Some aristocratic class oppressed the masses, and he was guilty, but if all aristocrats were blinded to a revolutionary object blindly, they made a mistake.

Revolutionaries are not always right. Under the oppression and persecution, revolt is justified, to ride on his head domineering people thrown, this is right. However, after the others with their revolution overturned, timing, and riding on someone elses head. When the revolutionaries became sinners. In a word, the oppressor is a crime, whether you are a revolutionary or a revolutionist.

No matter what age, Vendetta is evil, disregard for human life is evil whether you are in any name.

Filial piety to parents, love for others, always right, this is in line with human nature. Heartless, disloyalty, loving love, no matter how the times advocate, you should obey.

Dogs can eat shit, but people cant do it. Can those fanatics can do evil, but the man should not do so in any case.

"It was the best of times, and it was the worst of times. It was the age of wisdom, and it was the age of foolishness. It was the epoch of belief, and it was the epoch of incredulity. It was the season of light, and it was the season of darkness. It was the spring of hope, and it was the winter of despair. We had everything before us, and we had nothing before us. We were all going direct to Heaven, and we were all going direct the other way. In short, the period was so far like the present period. That some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of parison only. "

With the beginning of above words, Dickens told us a love story called "A Tale of Two Cities", which is one of his most important representative works. The novel profoundly exposed the society contradiction before the French Revolution, intensely attacks the aristocratic social class is dissolute and cruel, and sincerely sympathizes with the depressed classes. The novel also described many magnificent scenes like the revolt people attacked Bastille and so on, which displayed peoples great strength.

The novel has portrayed many different people.

The plex hatred is hard to solve, the cruel revenge has made more hatreds, loves rebirth in the hell edge, but take the life as the price.

Among many different kinds of people in the story, it is Sydney Carton who impressed me most.

I can’t describe my feeling at the first sight of him. To tell the truth, he was not eye-catching at that time. When the readers were immersed in the meeting between Lucie and Charles, he only played a little role as a lawyer who had the same face with Charles and extricated him from accusation through this point.

Then they went to drink. Without scruple, Carton expressed his dislike to Charles. Yes, they had the same face. But they were different. Carton was a little lawyer, while Charles was a successful man. Carton was quite free and easy, while Charles was graceful and noble. In fact, they were absolutely two distinctive men except for their appearance. Certainly, what Carton cared about was not the wealth or the position, but the love of Lucie. He realized that Lucie loved Charles, so he was barely out of control at that time.

Every time I read this part, I could feel his sincerity and broad-minded. By no means would he say a lie. He must tell you what he thinks in the heart. It is Sydney Carton, a true man.

After a short time, he can’t resist himself going to see Lucie. But when he stepped into the small forest, he saw Lucie and Charles getting together happily. He didn’t rush towards them, however, he returned without a word. Though he had a period of depression after that, he was clear who Lucie loved was not him. So what he only would do was to bless her.

Some days later, he came to meet Lucie again. He still told Lucie about his love, although he knew it was useless. He just wanted her to know it, as he said,"I want you to know that you are my last dream in my life. "

Many times, love is a thing about only one person. "I love you."It’s my business, not yours.

So when Carton showed his deep love to Lucie, I suddenly felt that this man was so lovely and deserved to beloved.

"Remember always there’s a man who could give his life to you, or anyone you love." Carton left with these words. But all of these seemed a sign of misfortune.

From then on, I came to understand how profound his love was. No doubt that it is the most moving love words in the world. Although you don’t love me, I am still there for you or your beloved though thick and thin.

But I knew in this story, Carton was bound to a tragic role. So when I saw he only left a view of his back in her wedding, there was a plex mood appearing slowly in my heart.

Some years passed. When Lucie appeared in the front of Carton, she became a mother. This time, Lucie’s face was filled with anxiety. Because Charles was in prison and would be killed soon. What lead to this was the plicated and filthy past.

From the point, the dirty of society was reflected. It was the sorrow in that period. But they must pay for this sorrow. So it was the time that Carton achieved his permission. "I told you once, for you I would do anything. I will. " He said.

At the last moment, he and Charles exchanged. That they had the same face helped them at the second time. When Lucie and her family left without knowing the truth, Carton, instead of Charles, went to be killed.

How can we evaluate his action? We can’t say anything about it because all what he did was out of love.

As he said to the young girl who panied him before died, "If we have no fear, we can be calm all the way." He was so calm to greet what would be ing soon, for she would get her happiness and he loved her forever.

"It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known." With her face rising before his eyes, he went to execution ground is "A Tale of Two Cities", also a tale of Sydney Carton.

I felt unthinkable that Marquis of Evermonde and his brother killed people just as easily as they killed chickens。 They deprived other people’s freedom as they liked and they thought it was normal and unremarkable。 They had never realized that they had done something wrong or something improper。 Because their nature was cruel and evil， like demons。 There is an old saying which means: People who mit too many crimes will kill themselves。 After all， there is justice in the world。 The demons can’t be rampant forever。 Because the world will not forgive them。 They will pay their lives for their crimes。 Let’s see the consequence of the Marquis，’’He lay there like a stone with a knife pushed into his heart。” I think it was just what he ought to gain and it is a real exciting scene。

The Marquis’ death was just the beginning of people’s resistance to the nobleman。 Gradually more and more people joined in the revolution。 One after another nobleman were sentenced to death and their heads were cut down 。 However， some innocent people were implicated in the revolution。 Charles Darney was one of them He was the nephew of Marquis of Evermonde。 To the opposite of his uncle， Darney was a kind and independent young man。

Dickens spoke highly of kindness mercy and love in the novel too。 This is the other thone of the novel when Doctor Manette was released from prison。 It was his daughter Lucie who took care of him and helped him return to normal。 During this time， Dr manette and Lucie knew Charles Darney and Sydeny Carton， the two young man fell in love with Lucie at the same time 。 At last， Lucie married Chares Darney 。Dr Manette accepted Darney as his son-in-law although he knew that Darney was the nephew of the man who threw him into prison for18 years。 This is the love between father and daughter。 And Sydeny Carton ， the very great man ，loved Lucie deeply。 He promised Lucie that he would do everything for her happiness。 He did it truely ，he sacrificed himself instead of Darney who looked the same as him。 This is love for lovers 。 This is the most wonderful thing in the world。 It also reminds us that no matter how no matter when there is true love existing。 At the end ， Lucie， Dr Manette and Darney arrived in England safely。

The tale of two cities is different from other historical fictions。 Its characters and main plots are fictional under the real background of the revolution of France。 The author made the experience of the fictional charactor Dr Manette as the main clue。The plots are plicated， and they are flexuous and dramatic。 The structure is plete and rigorous。

Dickens had dear love and hate。 He praised those who ought to be praised and attacked those who ought to be attacked。 The motivation of the novel maybe just warn the English dominators。 But I think we can learn something meaningful from the tale of two cities。

My Opinions About A Tale of Two Cities

A Tale of Two Cities was written by Charles Dickens, who was born in Portsmouth, England in 1812. As the second of eight children, Dickens had to go to work at the age of twelve to support his poor family, and he lived a difficult childhood. This troublesome time scarred him deeply and provided him with substantial material for such stories as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations. Though just accepted only little education, Dickens became a famous writer through his struggling self-learning and extremely hard work, and he was the representative writer of realism in the 19th century.

Charles Dickens lived in the period of transition between feudalism and capitalism, when the industrial revolution originated in England swept through Europe. As large numbers of workers invaded into urban centers to earn a living, the bourgeois took advantages of the surplus of labor by keeping wages low. The poor thus remained poor, and often lived in a narrow and filthy environment. Dickens’ writing depicted various directions about this society, and provided a keen, sympathetic chronicle of the plight of the urban poor.

A Tale of Two Cities mainly about the great atrocities of French aristocrats compelled the poor citizens to resist violently. Doctor Manette spent eighteen years as a prisoner in Bastille because he intended to expose the atrocity after learning that

Marquis Evrémonde killed a beautiful farmwife and her younger brother because of his brother’s lust. After Doctor Manette was free again, his daughter Lucie got married with Charles Darnay, Marquis Evrémonde’s nephew, but chose to live in England because he could not accept the cruel injustices of the French social system and the snobbish and cruel values of his uncle. However, Marquis Evrémonde continued his atrocities. After his crazy carriage crushed over a farmer’s little baby as if nothing happen, he was killed at night. A revolutionary storm was brewing. Mr. and were the revolutionaries in the poor Saint Antoine section of Paris. They wanted to kill all French aristocrats, including Charles Darnay. used to be Doctor Manette’s servant, so he was kind to Manettes, while his wife’s heart burned with longing for revenge. At last, Charles Darnay was judged to death, But Sydney Carton, a lawyer who loved Lucie deeply, willing to die instead of Darnay, as they had similar appearance.

From my personal point of view, the person A Tale of Two Cities described astounded me very much. Some of them were cruel, crazy and reasonless, while some of them were kind, moral and had own mind.

Sydney Carton was the person I thought the most. He was a smart attorney, without his help, Mr. Stryver could not solve any cases. But he was lazy, alcoholic, and cared nothing and nobody, he even could not find any interests in his own life, it seems that he lived just for wasting life. But he loved Lucie deeply. Finally, he

became a hero, because he sacrificed his life to save Darnay. I didn’t know why the author spent so many words to form such a strange guy at frist, he used his life to love Lucie, after all. But now, I caught it. Perhaps the terrible Carton symbolized the terrible old France, and his change in the end shown that everything could change, including the old France, a new and fine society would replace the violence.

Then, Charles Darnay. He was worthy of esteem or respect. He displayed great virtue in his rejection of his uncle, Marquis Evrémonde. Money and power meant nothing to him, if they came from exploitation and oppression. Even though he had to inherit his uncle’s bequest, he left them to the poor and lived in London throught his own effort. When he realized that he must go back to Paris to help Gabelle, one of his servants, and make right the wrong his uncle had done, he acted without hesitation because he knew that was his duty. He even refused Carton’s help after he was judged to death. I thought, Charles Darnay was a shiny diamond in that cruel and violent society, and he was a hope, the hope of equality and peace.

Third, . How crazy this woman was. Nobody could stop her steps toward revenge, except the death. Although it said that wherever there is oppression, there is resistance, I didn’t agree with totally. Her resistance was inhumane, insensible and endless. For just as the aristocracy’s oppression had made an oppressor herself, so will her oppression, in turn, make oppressors her victims. In the end of the novel, her death by a bullet from her own gun. It shown the

author’s belief that inordinate retaliated lust would destroy one own self.

On the whole, A Tale of Two Cities is a successful novel. It shows us oppression and resistance, violence and terror, revolution and vengeance, love and friendship.

I am lucky enough to live in the 21st century, when peace and development are pursued all along. Nowadays, there also are many problems and dissensions among this world, but violence does not the best way problems are solved. Violence just creates more problems, something every sensible person knows. What we need are talks and communication. The time A Tale of Two Cities mentions has gone, we should do enough preparation to adapt the coming age.

The French people I have been so inclined to lament are not so perfect as I thought they were, and in this book they show more of the evil nature of their revolution.

A Love and Hate in A Tale of Two Cities Many have grown fond of the tale involving the noble， former Fr ench aristocrat， who had virtually unmatched (except maybe in boo ks) good fortune。 First， his life was saved by the pitiful testimony of a beautiful young woman。 Anyone would gladly have married th is beautiful too-good-to-be-true-woman he wedded。 It is later seen， however， that this man should have married her even if she were u gly as sin。 This was not the case though， and he married a beautif ul woman， who had an admirer who was a dead ringer for her hus band， was a loser， and would give his life to keep her from pain， all of which really es in handy when her hubby is on his way to the guillotine。 This is not the story of a man with multiple gua rdian angels， but rather that of a character in Charles Dickens' nove l A Tale of Two Cities。 A skeptic could easily see this as an unbe lievable， idealistic and overrated novel that is too far-fetched。 An u nbiased reader， however， can see

that this is a story of love and ha te， each making up the bare-bones of the novel so that one must l ook closely to see Dickens' biases， attempts at persuasion， and unbe lievable plot-lines， some of which are spawned from Dickens' love and hate， and some of which love and hate are used to develop。

The more lifeless of the characters we are supposed to like--the Ma nettes， Darnay， Lorry-- play their parts in the idyllic fashion Dicken s and like-minded readers want， a fashion made inflexible by circu mstances and purposes。 "Circumstances and purposes" refers in larg e part to Dickens' state of mind and objective。 Dickens' intrusive， u nusually editorial point of view， with references to "I" and deviatio ns from narration for monologue， reveals the novel's slavery to the teachings of his morals--or perhaps his own slavery to the morals o f his time and Protestantism。 Therefore， can Lucie be any different from the supportive， wholly feminine wife and mother she is? Not if Dickens' is to stick to his obligation， or perhaps obstinate purpos e， of moral teachings。 With that aside， what is to be said of Dickens' teaching， his presen tation of love and hate? They both have one thing in mon: the characters representing each are unmistakable at a mile away。 The moment Lucie Manette is put before

the reader's eyes， her tumblin g blond locks， her bright blue eyes， her seventeen-year-old， slight， p retty (but not sexy!) figure and all， he knows that， not only will sh e not be a villainous， unlikable character， but she will be the epito me of the good， beautiful woman (and later housewife)， the one Di ckens thought every women should be。 At this young woman's intr oduction with Mr。 Lorry， she curtseys to him， and Dickens wastes

no time in pointing out that "young ladies made curtseys in those days"。 The introductory scene climaxes at fair Lucie's fainting， one that， to some， puts her unflawed position into question， although to Dickens， it reinforces it。 At the other side of this moral lecture are the Defarges。 Call Dicke ns a master for embodying qualities， but here are another flawless pair--flawlessly evil， and sentenced to evil from the moment we see Madame Defarge's "watchful eye that seldom seemed to look at a nything， a large hand heavily ringed， a steady face， strong features， and great posure of manner"， a stark contrast to the slight， fai nting figure of Mada-- or rather， Miss Manette。 To further turn us against good old Madame Defarge， Dickens has her using a toothpi ck publicly in her opening scene， an activity dainty Miss Manette wouldn't dream of。 Finally， we mustn't forget the setting。 Lucie ma y have been born in France， but she defected to England， and trave led from London to meet Mr。 Lorr

y。 Madame Defarge was a Frenc hwoman， born and living amongst peasants who drank wine scoope d off of mud。 She probably was not taught Dickens' (and his prima ry English audience's) Protestant morals in her Catholic nation， and certainly did not manifest them。

In arguably the book's first touching scene (some say it's the one where Carton is on his way to the guillotine)， Lucie goes through much trouble to coax her father from his insanity， laying her head on his shoulder， and trusting a man she had never met。 When Mad ame Defarge sought vengeance for the cruel injustice mitted ag ainst her kin， she looked to destroy not only the innocent descende nt of the culprit， but his family-- an old man， a young woman， an d a little girl。 These two characters' love and hate are unconditional and total。 Did this have to be so? Could not Madame Defarge ha ve showed one bit of femininity， of human kindness? Could Lucie not have stolen a contemptuous glance at her persecutors? Not with Dickens at the helm。 Lucie and Defarge are created with a convic tion， and once Dickens' plot was laid， the blinders he put on his c haracters allowed only one route。 Perhaps it was a primitive style， but modern characters are painted more realistically， with human w eaknesses and

more variability。 Did it have to be so? Could Dicken s have captured more readers， especially in the long run， if he had pursued more varying actions in his characters， as well as more h umanness and believability? Does this point to Dickens as a flawed writer， with little imagination and ability? Another factor that must be considered is our inability to criticize a n English--or English-living--character， or to find a modicum of res

pectability in a French one， with two exceptions。 One is the young woman who is beheaded just before Sydney Carton。 She is the en emy of an enemy， she is going to be killed， and she allows Dicke ns to teach another moral using Sydney Carton。 Why not have her happy to die for the benefit of her countrymen， while not trembling as she ascends to her death， thereby depriving the mon enemy of a small victory? With the modern trend of political correctness and anti-racism， a Tale of Two Cities written today would never le ave the word processor。 Jerry Cruncher is about the most sinful of the English (aside from a spy but， remember， he defected to Franc e)， and he repents by the end， which counts for another moral fro m Dickens。 In Dickens' time， racism was not regarded as it is toda y， and so if he wanted to use the French Revolution to send a me ssage to the population， it was his right， but he may have taken thi s too far for some。 Today， Lucie Manette would by no means be taken seriously as

a believable， even likable character。 She persists in fainting at particul arly stressful moments， but when her husband is before a heartless， bloodthirsty jury， she looks brave and strong just for him。 In cont ext， this was a screaming contradiction， but one that Dickens requir ed to portray his Eve。 It is much easier to believe Madame Defarg e's hate than her opposition's love。 Defarge's sister was raped and

murdered mercilessly and her brother was killed by a pair heartless "noblemen"。 It is much easier to understand Defarge's taste for blo od than the condition of Manette， who， after practicing as a pet ent doctor and acting normally for years， experiences a recurrence of his mental condition simply because his wonderful daughter has left for two weeks， although he has two dear friends nearby。 Charles Dickens has built an enduring story enjoyed by millions， w hich is loved by experts and critics today although it would be im mediately butchered if written by a modern author。 It is a love stor y loved by its creator， but wholly unbelievable。 It is actually doom ed by its own idealism and unrealistic characters。 As a hate story， i t is much more petent， although also using this for its own pur poses。 One can draw one's own conclusions and ideas from such a book， but facts are facts。
