假期閒著沒事兒，讀了讀小王子，由於為了學英語，所以是讀的英文版的。所以感想也是硬著頭皮一個英文單詞一個英文單詞敲出來的，敲出來後，實在不想寫中文版的了，所以求助網易有道大大，翻譯出來的，這樣的中文版難免有拗口之處，還請諸位看官見諒。也算是「醜文共賞」了。哈哈！
誒對了，英文後面是中文哈~
In the beginning of the winter vacation, Iprinted a book called 「The Little Prince」. My original intention was to memorysome unknown English words, to enrich my vocabulary and to improve my Englishreading. But now, after reading the book, I find what I really obtain is farmore than the words. I indeed benefit a lot. It happens that my little brotherlived in my home these days, what he says and what he does make me shocked and astonishedsometimes, which causes me to think about the present children. So, I decide towrite this article. The following is how I feel, including the feeling aboutthe book and dedication(獻辭) to my childhood memories.
On the title page, the writer writes thissentence, 「I ask the indulgence of the children who may read this book fordedicating(獻給) it to agrown-up. All grown-ups were once children.」 It can be seen from this that thisbook is written to grown-ups(成年人) more than tochildren. But I think it is really a pity I have not read this book when I wasa child. Fortunately, even now it is not too late.
In my opinion, this book is a masterpieceabout childhood, including the thinking about social reality. The teller of thetale, Antoine De Saint-Exupery(聖埃克蘇佩裡), is a pilot, who had an accident with his plane in the Desert ofSahara. And in Sahara he met the protagonist(主人公) ofthe story, the little prince, from a planet called Asteroid(小行星) B-612. Then they have a series of funny talking.
There has lived 「a little prince」 ineveryone’s heart since they came to this world. However, some are dead, evenwhen they are children, yet some are still alive. It’s very difficult to keep thesoul young. In fact, many people think that their life are boring. Because theyrepeat their life day by day. A year has 365 days, but their year only has oneday. Their life is monotonous(單調的,乏味的), like the king, the conceited man, thetippler, the businessman and the lamplighter in the book. I think they losttheir individuality(個性).
However, what are mentioned above isbecoming more and more general in children in today’s China. I think mostlybecause the parents are too anxious, who don’t hope the child lose at thestarting line. Even they hope their children are able to become mature as soonas possible, for which they feel satisfied. I can’t make judgments whether isgood or not. Because the social competition is cruel, and I’m not parent so Ican’t understand their heart. But I always think that what a sorrow matter isthat they can’t experience the happy adventures in my childhood.
I think my childhood is happy.
When I was a child, I lived with my grandmain countryside, because my parents are busy in their restaurant and have notime to look after me. Without my parents』 discipline(管教), I was very free. Flying kites,playing with pets, piling up snowmen, hide and seek and so on, there are manyfunny things I and my friends can do. What impresses me most is the visit of a haunted house(鬼屋). There was adilapidated adobe house(荒廢的土坯房) on my way to school.And it is said that there was a ghost in the house. Finally one day, I and twofriends plucked up the courage to visit the ghost. However, we didn’t find anyghost, only found some spider webs(蜘蛛網). And the housewas really dark and shabby, as well as it made a shrill sound when the windblown, which looks like haunted(鬧鬼的). We didn’t comeaway empty-handed(一無所獲). We found some bullet casings(彈殼) in the soil, possibly left in the war, which surprised us much.And then, we kept the secret that there was no ghost in the house, in order tomake the house belongs to only three of us goblin(哥布林,小鬼).
In the summerholiday, my second elder brother would come to my grandma’s for living somedays. The most interesting game we play was catching the grasshopper(螞蚱), cricket(蛐蛐兒) and even mantis(螳螂) with a 「knife」. Wealways could catch a lot of them in a hot afternoon, when our grandma wasworking in the farm. But now, the little guys are much less than before. And itis really a joke that I dare not to(不敢) touch thoselittle creatures after 12 years, which is really ironic(諷刺的), declaring the end of my childhood.
I have raisedmany dogs, among them, there are two ones impressing me very much. One hasname, yet the other has not. There were some days when my dog stayed in myuncle’s home. However, my uncle was out on business for some days. So, the dogwas left unattended(無人照顧). And I didn’t have a key. So, I was very worriedabout my dog. Did he feel thirsty or hungry? Did he have a good night? Andwould he die? I dared not to think. My dad found me sad, so he drove me towhere my uncle lived to take the key, which took much time. I felt so happybecause I didn't think my father would go with me. But he did. Then we drove tomy uncle’s home. And we took the dog to home. But what happened next is reallyreally sorrowful. My parents gave the dog little food to prevent him fromeating himself to death. However, I stealthily(偷偷地) gavehim many food. Unfortunately, he was dead on the next day’s morning. Sincethen, every time I think about it, I would blame myself. The second dog is asheepdog(牧羊犬), called 「da huang」, because his fur wasyellow. He is very clever and robust(健壯的). When dad wasfeeding him, he could stand on his hind leg(後腿),putting his paws on dad’s shoulder and blowing hot air to dad’s face. When hewas two years old, he was so robust that my parents thought he was dangerous. So,they sold it to a factory to guard the entrance. After that, my dad once tookme to have look at him. Unfortunately, the factory sold it to another one whichwe didn’t know. Eventually, we never find him since then. I don’t know whathappened to him. However, since then, every time I see other dog, da huang’simage come to my mind, two ears standing up spiritedly, two eyes sparkling and tonguebeing stuck out. From then on, I never raised a dog.
Years may wrinklethe skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear,self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust. This is what Ilearn from 「the little prince」. Youth is the pursuit. To pursue beauty, libertyand try to understand the meaning of life, which keep one’s soul young. And thatis great.
May the littleprince be with me forever.
寒假開始的時候，我列印了一本名為《小王子》的書。我的初衷是記憶一些陌生的英語單詞，豐富我的詞彙量，提高我的英語閱讀水平。但是現在，在讀了這本書之後，我發現我真正得到的不僅僅是文字。我確實受益匪淺，我的弟弟現在住在我家裡，他的所作所為有時讓我感到驚訝，有點不像他這個年齡的樣子，頗為早熟，這讓我想到了現在的孩子們。所以，我決定寫這篇文章。以下是我的感受,包括對這本書的感覺和對我童年的追憶。
在書的扉頁上,作者寫了這句話,「對那些讀過這本書的孩子們，我祈求他們的諒解，因為這本書是獻給成年人的。所有的成年人都曾經是孩子。「這可以從中看到這本書更是寫給成年人的。但是我覺得很遺憾，我小時候沒有讀過這本書。幸運的是，現在還不算太晚。
在我看來，這本書是關於童年的傑作，包括對社會現實的思考。故事的講述著，法國作家聖埃克蘇佩裡,是一名飛行員，他的飛機曾在撒哈拉沙漠出現故障。在撒哈拉沙漠，他遇到了主人——小王子,從一顆行星被稱為小行星B - 612。然後他們進行了一系列有趣的談話。
自從人們來到這個世界，每個人心中都有一個「小王子」。然而，有些人已經死了，即使他們是孩子，也有一些還活著。保持心靈的年輕是很困難的。事實上，很多人認為他們的生活很無聊。因為他們日復一日地重複著他們的生活。一年有365天，但一年只有一天。他們的生活是單調乏味的,像書中的國王、自負的人、酒鬼、商人、點燈用具。他們失去了他們的個性。
然而，上面所提到的在當今中國的兒童中變得越來越普遍。我想主要是因為父母太焦慮了，他們不希望孩子輸在起跑線上。甚至他們也希望自己的孩子能夠儘快成熟，這樣他們就會感到滿足。我無法判斷這是好是壞。因為現在的社會競爭是殘酷的，我不是父母，所以我無法理解他們的心情。但我一直認為，他們無法體驗我童年時經歷的快樂，該是多麼令人悲傷。
我想我的童年是快樂的。
當我還是個孩子的時候，我和奶奶住在鄉下，因為我的父母在他們的餐館裡忙著，沒有時間照顧我。沒有我父母的管教，我很自由。放風箏，和寵物玩耍，堆雪人，捉迷藏等等，我和我的朋友們可以做很多有趣的事情。讓我印象最深刻的是探訪「鬼屋」。在去學校的路上，有一個破舊的土坯房屋。據說房子裡有個鬼。終於有一天，我和兩個小夥伴鼓起勇氣去看鬼。然而,我們沒有發現任何鬼,只發現了一些蜘蛛網(蜘蛛網)。房子真的很黑暗的,破舊的，當風吹過來的時候，它會發出刺耳的聲音，看起來就像鬧鬼。我們一無所獲。但是我們發現一些埋在土裡的子彈殼，可能是在戰爭的時候留下的，這讓我們吃驚。然後, 為了使房子只屬於我們三個小鬼，對鬼屋沒有鬼的事情我們一直保密。
在暑假裡，我的二哥都會來我奶奶家住幾天。最有趣是我們捉螞蚱,板球蛐蛐兒,甚至螳螂螳螂與「刀」。在一個炎熱的下午，當我們奶奶在地裡幹活的的時候，我們總是能抓住他們。但是現在，那些小傢伙們比以前少了很多。真的是一個笑話——我12歲後再也不敢碰這些小東西，也挺諷刺，似乎宣告了我童年的結束。
我養過很多狗，其中有兩個給我留下了深刻的印象。一個有名字，另一個沒有。有幾天我的狗住在我大伯家。然而，我的大伯有事好幾天不在家。所以,沒人照顧狗狗。我沒有鑰匙。所以，我很擔心我的狗。他感到渴了還是餓了?他今晚過得好嗎?和他會死嗎?我不敢想。我爸爸發現我一直悶悶不樂，所以他帶我到大伯住的地方去拿鑰匙，這費了很長時間。我感到很高興，因為我不認為我爸爸會和我一起去，但是他去了。然後我們開車去大伯家。我們把狗帶回家。但是接下來發生的事情真的很悲哀。我的父母給了狗一點點東西吃，以免他吃得太多撐死了。然而,我暗地裡偷偷地給了他很多食物。不幸的是，第二天早上他就死了。從那以後，每當我想起這件事，我就會責怪自己。第二個狗是牧羊犬,稱為「大黃」,因為他的毛是黃色的。他是非常聰明的，健壯的。爸爸餵他的時候,他可以站在他的後腿上，把爪子放在爸爸的肩膀，嘴裡向爸爸的臉呼出熱氣。當他兩歲的時候，他過於兇猛，爹娘都認為他很危險。所以，他們把它賣給了一個工廠來看門。在那之後，我爸爸曾經帶我去看他。不幸的是，工廠把它賣給了另一個我們不知道的。從那以後，我們再也找不到他了。我不知道他出了什麼事。然而，從那以後，每當我看到別的狗，大黃就會浮現在我的腦海，兩隻耳朵直立起來，兩隻眼睛閃閃發光，舌頭伸得長長得。從那以後，我再也沒有養過狗。
歲月悠悠，衰微只及肌膚；熱忱拋卻，頹廢必致靈魂。憂煩，惶恐，喪失自信，定使心靈扭曲，意氣如灰。這就是我從《小王子》中學到的東西。青春是追求。追求美，自由，試著去理解生命的意義，它使人的靈魂年輕。這如此偉大。一個人老去的那一天，是他不再追求得那一天。
願小王子在我心裡永駐！
