少女时期的姌妮满心向往的是像神话传说纯洁永恒的爱情，当遇到高大英俊，稳重沉静的德·拉马尔子爵（梁茹）后，姌妮自以为找到了理想中的完美爱人，沉浸在巨大的幸福之中。新婚之夜，当姌妮发现梁茹对自己的身体比对自已的灵魂更感兴趣以后，她感到一种梦想被打破的绝望。一种撕裂的剧痛传遍地的全身，而梁茹对她身体上的创痛却视而不见，得到满足以后就倒头大睡。身体的创伤是姌妮爱情幻灭的根源，她感到梦寐以求的幸福化为了泡影，她一生的悲剧也就此拉开了序幕。

蜜月归来，梁茹“仿佛变成另外一个人，就像—个演员扮演完一个角色，现在恢复他平时的面目了。”梁茹接管了姌妮家的财产，压缩开支，对待农民极其刻薄：姌妮家贵族田主的身份俨然被梁茹资本家的气焰淹没，由此姌妮的物质生态失去了平衡，父母也因此气得出走。梁茹逐渐霸出自私、卑鄙、粗暴的真面目。换上土财主一般的装束，以前打动姌妮的光彩和仪表再也不见。夫妻二人关系冷淡，形同陌路，“他很少关心到她，连说话也很难得；任何爱情的影子都突然不见了，夜里到她卧室去已经成为稀有的事情”。这种家庭的冷暴力使姌妮心如止水，在物质生态和精神生态上完全濒临崩溃。

罗萨黎是姌妮的侍女，两人从小一起长大，情同姐妹。罗萨黎未婚生下了—个男孩，却死活不肯说出孩子的生父是淮。一天晚上，姌妮无意中发现自己的丈夫和箩莎丽并排睡在一起。她麻木地奔跑在寒冷的旷野里，一切欢乐巳成泡影，痛苦和绝望充满她的内心。大病一场之后，她的精神彻底崩溃，理想中的忠贞婚姻就此支离破碎。得知自己怀有身孕后，新的生命让她鼓起了生活的勇气、对人生充满了新的希望。情感上的巨大创伤被本能的母性所掩盖，但这对于姌妮并不是幸福生活的一个开端，而是另外一场接踵而至的劫难的开始。

儿子的出生让姌妮感到不可抗拒的巨大喜悦，她沉没在狂热的母爱所带来的无比幸福之中。在冷酷的现实面前，她逐渐变得麻木不仁。对梁茹与福尔维勒伯爵夫人的偷情，冷眼旁观，不闻不问。在一次幽会中，梁茹被愤怒的伯爵推下山崖，与情妇双双毙命。看到梁茹的尸体时，深受刺激的姌妮当场晕倒，早产生下的女孩不幸夭折。于是姌妮为妻的一幕宣告终结。

然而这只是姌妮家庭幻灭的一个开头罢了。唯一的儿子虽然让她对人生有了希望，可正是这种希望让姌妮经受了她一生中最大的打击。丈夫死后，姌妮把自

己的一生完全寄托在儿子波勒身上。溺爱使得波勒骄纵任性，不学无术。他沉迷于赌博和投机生意，抛下自己的母亲．和一个妓女私奔。为了偿还儿子所欠的巨额债务，姌妮四处抵押产业，失去了父亲和姨母，失去了白杨堡那个有她半生回忆的地方。所幸的是姌妮又遇到了善良的侍女罗萨黎，这丫头已是一个很能干的农妇。她的儿子——也就是梁茹的儿子，波勒的哥哥，也是个勤俭耐劳的小伙子。在他们的帮助下，姌妮卖掉了祖传的老屋，买了一套小的新居，就这样开始了新的生活。

安居下来的姌妮却在绝望痛苦中收到了儿子的来信，终于波勒的孩子辗转来到了姌妮的手中，将她从悲伤中拯救，这时候，女主人公不禁感叹——人生，您可看见，它从来不像人们揣想的那么好，也不像那么坏！

是啊，人生不如意十之八九，它总是在不经意中将我们美好的想象打破，让我们变得一蹶不振，但它却并不是一味的让你绝望，在你失去一切的时候，你也许会突然看到曙光，其实只要我们换个角度，人生——依旧美好！

 

第二篇：莫泊桑《一生》英文读后感

My impression after reading Une Vie（一生）Maybe is my own bias and shadow on it, Although I feel a bit disappointed,but I have to say,From this novel I learned not to understand the social reality and humanity's true colours before. I think I am growing up,I can understand the society. The novel's protagonist Yana entered a monastery to study at her twelve.She left to the convent At the age of seventeen.She is a pure ,innocent, and imaginative girl. She began to look forward to the good life and beautiful novel love.she dreamed a prince charming to marry her. Yana lived in a warm family, and was bursting with happiness of the nobility. Her Parents are gentle and simple, and were happy in doing good things.However, Yana is an only child, She accepted her father’s theory about "in all destiny" . she was very tender and gorgeous, You can say, she owned everything but True love . They were fell in love with each other at first sight. Soon the two entered the marriage hall. Because She came from a young girl into a bride, She also can not accept the changes between the moment. And She was also unable to coordinate the conflict between love and sex desire. She was just first awakening interest in the opposite sex. Her innocent input determines the rest of her life with, suddenly she also difficult to accept Viscount’s libido. She had a sensitive heart to be hurt at beginning. But when they went to Corsica for honeymoon, conjugal（夫妻间的） love and lust to achieve coordination. This brief and beautiful days, became her life of precious and happiness. However, Happy life came quickly, left quickly also. Yana’s happiness just likes a shooting star passed away shortly.Just married before long, Even took the refined and cultured mask,exposing his unkind and egoistic. When Honeymoon trip back, He soon grasps the manor and property management, even restricting Yana’s expenses. These facts are exposed the greed and selfishness of him. Besides, Even in the back with his wife and cross his way round maid Rosalie and local fulvi countess. What YaNa wants is just a fall in love at first sight, a considerate husband, A kind of being deeply attached to each other in the marriage and family life. This is every maiden would have justified, the most realistic craving.but all of that were shattered by reality.such a good girl,her whole life ruined by a ungrateful man. how the pathetic life is . In fact, at the beginning,We every maiden like Yana, Longing for love. But often at gorgeous appearance of love, we easily fall in the trap.just as yana did.maybe we all make the mistakes,because we are humanbeings but Immortals. Who would have thought that such a beautiful love will turn into a desperate conspiracy? Perhaps Yana was natural gentle kindness, faced with her husband’s betrayal ,she endure all the time. But if I were she,I would not tolerate such a man to hurt me, I would not to keep silent all the time .in a word,happiness is in our own hand

s .We should tolerate some of the people and things, but not all., Especially for the only memories ofbetrayal of love. Patience and tolerance should be limited. Maybe when yana found Even affair with the maid Rolisa at the first time, Yana with tough attitude to even divorce, maybe her destiny will be changed . It is a unwise action that a woman gives her whole life to a man. A woman always should be left to their own way,women should be more independence. They should not be a slave of love and ruin your own life .i admit that Yana gave up her husband, she focus on her son Paul. Bu She was not so much happiness , From the beginning she was devoted to her kid, and did not let Paul to learn how to independence. so that later he lost the whole family.From Yana's attitude toward her ckid let me learn how to educatemychildren, love children. Your whole life ,it all depends on you to choose how to live.
