小妇人英语读后感

Little Women

Before I read this book, I had watched a cartoon movie made by Japan. So I have a strong interest on it.

It all begins in the dead of winter; The Christmas Season. The coldest one of all, were the war has made fuel for heating very scarce. While her husband is off at war, Marmee is left alone to raise their four daughters: Jo, Meg, Beth, and Amy.

On Christmas Eve, Marmee has just arrived home from passing out food to the less fortunate with a letter from her husband, the girls' father. The all gather together around the fire to read the letter. Afterwards, the girls are teary eyed. Marmee kisses them and they are off to bed.

Jo is longing to become a writer. So, every night she stays up late writing the script for soap operas. As morning comes she is the last one awake. The table is set, and food prepared for their Christmas feast.

As dusk falls, the girls are all up in the attic acting out Jo's play, which she reads from the local (fake) newspaper. As they are

performing, their rich, next-door neighbors grandson watches from the window.

The 2 oldest girls: Jo and Meg, get ready to attend the Christmas Ball. While Jo is curling Meg's hair, there is a strange smell to the air. Amy screams, Megs hair is being singed. They continue digging through the old clothes bin for a pair of white gloves.

One of the prominent themes in Little Women is the coming of age or maturation of the girls. During the course of the novel we see them grow in many ways -- physically, intellectually, and especially emotionally. One question which readers must ask themselves is

whether the views the characters have on the coming of age process are shared by Alcott. If they aren't, what are Alcott's views and how do they differ from those of the women in her story?

It is interesting to examine the last half of Chapter 20,

"Confidential." Jo addresses the maturation issue as she speaks with Marmee of the situation between Meg and Mr. Brooke. The possible love between these two represents one of the very important aspects in coming of age for a teenage girl. Jo treats this natural process as if it were some sort of disease, however. Jo cannot understand why Meg would want to stop behaving "like a sensible creature" (p.202), and refers to love as "such nonsense."

 

第二篇：《小妇人》读后感

不要让乌云遮住太阳

——读《小妇人》有感

江都市实验小学 六（九）班 王子钒

轻轻合上《小妇人》这本书，我被书中的主人公们感动了。四个相亲相爱的姐妹，用他们不同的方式努力着，奋斗着，朝自己的梦想进发。

四个女孩中，我最喜欢二姐乔，因为她热情、大方、敢爱敢恨。虽然乔不及大姐梅格漂亮，也没有妹妹贝丝多才多艺，但她有一个伟大的梦想——成为一名作家。

成长之路总是充满着坎坷与艰辛。一天，巧合三妹艾米大吵了一架，艾米一气之下竟烧掉了乔花了几个月时间呕心沥血写的小说，而且不妙的是，那是这本书唯一的稿子！乔只要这件事后大发雷霆，发誓“一辈子也不理那个恶毒的女人”。艾米十分后悔，她感到自己如果再不道歉就再也没有人爱她了。于是她决定向乔道歉，可伤心至极的乔怎么也不愿意原谅她。乔觉得：艾米做的事情太恶劣，应该受到惩罚。最后，在马奇太太的劝导下，两人才握手言和，重归于好。

马奇太太对乔说：“亲爱的，无论是你还是艾米，亦或是家里的所有人，他们都是善良的，都是相爱的。记住：别让愤怒的乌云遮住了太阳，互相原谅，互相帮助，明天再重新开始。”看到马奇太太的这番话，我心中感慨万千：亲人朋友之间总是会有一些问题和摩擦，难免会产生些矛盾。我至今还记得，有一次我和好朋友顾颖因为一件鸡毛蒜皮的小事而大吵了一架，绝交了半个多学期，这半个多学期里说的话还没有我们现在一天说的话多。我们因为一件小事闹了半个学期的别扭，而文中的艾米则是烧掉了乔的心血和精神支柱。心胸宽广的乔在几天后就原谅了艾米的任性，我和顾颖却隔了半个多学期才和好。我们就像马奇太太所说的，都被愤怒的乌云遮住了心中的太阳。现在回想起来，真是追悔莫及，也算是童年生活中一个无法磨灭的阴影吧

看完这一章我多么希望世界上的所有人都能拨开那片乌云，让灿烂的阳光照进人们的心房。这样，我们的世界就会变得更加和谐美好，就不会再有那么多纠纷了。
