简爱英语读后感1
Jane Eyre
Jane was an orphan. She lived in her aunt’s house. Her aunt didn’t like her, so she took her to an orphanage. Jane studied in the orphanage and learned a lot of things. When Jane grew up, she worked as a governess in a big family and taught the child in this family. Bit by bit, Jane and her master Mr Rochester fell in love with each other. But the master had a wife. She was a madwoman. When Jane knew this, she left her teaching post.But she could not forget her master. So, at last, she visited her master. At that time, her master’ house was burnt down and he became handicapped. His mad wife died in the big fire. Jane decided to get married with him and look after him.
Jane Eyre found his real love and she was a happy woman. The most important thing is that Jane believed everybody were equal.
In my mind, though a person’s beautiful face can make others once feel that is attractive .if his or her mind isn’t the same beautiful as the appearance, such as beauty cannot last , when others find that the beauty which had charmed them was only a falsity, it’s not true,
they will not like the person any more. For a long time, only a person’s great virtue, a noble soul, a beautiful heart can be called as an everlsting beauty, just as Kahill Gibran had said, that ‘Beauty is a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted'.There are great differences in our souls, and from that, we can know that whether a man is noble or ordinary, and even obscure, that is, whether he is beautiful or not.
简爱英语读后感2
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.
Francis Bacon said in his essay, ‘Goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin.’
That is to say a person without goodness is destined to lose everything.
Therefore, I, a kind person, want to tell those ‘vermin-to-be’ to learn from the kind Oliver and regain the nature of goodness.
简爱英语读后感3
"Jane Eyre" is the history of British literature as a classic masterpieces, it successfully portrays the history of British literature in the first to love, life, society and religion are independent and proactive attitude and dare to struggle, dare to fight for freedom and equality of women image.
All the women who love foreign literary works like to read Charlotte's Jane Eyre. If we think that Charlotte writes Jane love only to write this lingering love. I think it's wrong. The author is also a woman, living in the middle of the nineteenth Century in the fluctuating UK, when thought had a new start. And the most permeated in Jane Eyre is this idea - the independent consciousness of women. Let us imagine that if Jane's independence has long been strangled in Jirenlixia childhood life; if she does not have the independence, she had and his wife and daughter live together in Rochester, began to have money, and status of new life; if she does not share of purity, we are now in the hands of "Jane Eyre" is no longer touching the tears of the classic. So, I began to think about why Jane Eyre moved us and loved it - it was her independent character and the charm of her heart.
However, we can not help but ask, is this only one step to be independent? I don't think it is. After all, the independence of women is a long process, not overnight. It needs a thorough courage, like Jane then decided to leave Rochester, "the wind rustling Xi Zhuang earth went to the Yi River is so cold, did not return" bold and daring. I think this should be the most critical step, and it should be a decisive step towards independence. Charlotte's Jane Eyre has left her stubborn character and independent personality to us. So she is a successful, happy woman.
《简爱》是英国文学史上的一部经典传世之作,它成功地塑造了英国文学史中第一个对爱情、生活、社会以及宗教都采取了独立自主的积极进取态度和敢于斗争、敢于争取自由平等地位的女性形象。
大凡喜爱外国文学作品的女性,都喜欢读夏洛蒂的《简爱》。如果我们认为夏洛蒂仅仅只为写这段缠绵的爱情而写《简爱》。我想,错了。作者也是一位女性,生活在波动变化着的英国19世纪中叶,那时思想有着一个崭新的开始。而在《简爱》里渗透最多的也就是这种思想――女性的独立意识。让我们试想一下,如果简爱的独立,早已被扼杀在寄人篱下的童年生活里;如果她没有那份独立,她早已和有妻女的罗切斯特生活在一起,开始有金钱,有地位的新生活;如果她没有那份纯洁,我们现在手中的《简爱》也不再是令人感动的流泪的经典。所以,我开始去想,为什么《简爱》让我们感动,爱不释手――就是她独立的性格,令人心动的人格魅力。
然而,我们不禁要问,仅这一步就能独立吗?我认为,不会的。毕竟女性的独立是一个长期的过程,不是一蹴而就的。它需要一种彻底的勇气,就像简爱当年毅然离开罗切斯特一样,需要“风潇潇兮易水寒,壮土一去兮不复返”的豪迈和胆量。我想,这应该才是最关键的.一步,也应该是走向独立的决定性的一步。而夏洛蒂笔下的简爱却把她倔强的性格,独立的个性留给我们一个感动。所以她是成功的,幸福的女性。

Jane Eyre is a portrait of Charlotte Bronte's poetic life. It is a work with autobiographical color. It tells a story of an English woman who has become an orphan since childhood. She always pursues freedom and dignity in all kinds of hardships, insists on herself, and finally gets happiness. From this we can see that the frustrations and pains of life are clouds. Persistence is the key. Victory lies not in the result, but in the spirit. Like Charlotte and Jane Eyre, there is the mental quality of perseverance and struggle against pain. Gain strength, raise self. Let yourself have the courage to open up. Be bold in making progress. Go up the higher steps.
Jane Eyre, the heroine, was a pure and thoughtful woman. She lived in the bottom of society and suffered all kinds of hardships. But she has a stubborn personality and the courage to pursue equality and happiness. With rich lyrical writing and deep and delicate psychological description, the novel exhibits fascinating and tortuous love experiences of the hero and heroine, and celebrates the freedom from all old customs and prejudices. On the basis of mutual understanding and mutual respect is rooted in the deep love, with a strong shock of the mind force. The most successful thing is to create a woman who dares to resist and dare to strive for freedom and peace. The parents died of typhoid fever and died one month later. The young Jane Eyre was raised at the uncle's parents' house. Uncle Mr. Reed died in the red house after Jane loved XX times subjected to discrimination and abuse of life. On one occasion, Jane was locked up in the red house because of his cousin's assault. Physical pain and spiritual humiliation and fear caused her to suffer a serious illness.
The trials of thousands of setbacks have created our persistent character, forged our strong will, trained our excellent skills and paved the way for our success. In the setback, we save a little bit of strength, step by step towards brilliant. Let us full of "fate by the throat" of the lofty sentiments and aspirations! Challenge setbacks and overcome setbacks!
The confusion was going on, the rebellion was on, the search was taking place, and Jane and Mrs. finally walked into the church school under the bullying of Mrs. Reed and John. But the pain is there, there are many essential things, there are many hidden in the undercurrent of life still need to face the pain. The plight of life, the departure of a good friend, and the public denunciation from Mr. Blok Hester all made her feel the foul air and the pain of the heart in the confused life. Life was at last a progress, and God was a little merciful. In the church school, two years of teacher life was probably a calm backwater for jane. However, in not cheerful, quiet life, but permeated with her strong sense of loneliness and fear, she needs is in the real life of confusion in the free and run, free, cheerful and love.
A strong, simple, rigid and flexible, independent, aggressive woman. She was humble and homely, but she didn't feel inferior. Her contempt for the arrogance of power, laugh at their stupidity, show of self-reliance and good ideal personality. She has a tenacious vitality, never bow to fate.
Once saw a sentence in a certain place: "where the heart is, Su Li in the past, life is like a journey, a reed in the air." Jane's life is like a lonely boat, walking in the boundless tempestuous waves, with her strong defeated fate, to win their own sky!
简爱英语读后感6
I have finished reading Jane Eyre today with a sincere admiration for Jane's love. She is my example. Jane is not beautiful enough, but it is not because it is beautiful, but because it is lovely and beautiful. The elegance of the temperament, the gentle life of the wave of personality, have their own views. These are the most valuable things for women.
I love to see Jane Eyre in the period of learning Rohault De. She tried to inspire me with an upward spirit.
There is a love story with Mr. Rochester, which is the process of true love. It will be enough for a man to have such a great love in his life.
It makes people feel the value and meaning of survival, why people live and how people live.
Book review: we hope that everyone will read such works, in order to improve our self-cultivation, interests, morality, ability of heart.
简爱英语读后感7
Jane Eyre, is a poor but aspiring, small in body but huge in soul, obscure but self-respecting girl. After we close the covers of the book, after having a long journey of the spirit, Jane Eyre, a marvelous figure, has left us so much to recall and to think:
We remember her goodness: for someone who lost arms and blinded in eyes, for someone who despised her for her ordinariness, and even for someone who had hurt her deeply in the past.
We remember her pursuit of justice. It’s like a companion with the goodness. But still, a virtuous person should promote the goodness on one side and must check the badness on the other side.
We remember her self-respect and the clear situation on equality. In her opinion, everyone is the same at the God’s feet. Though there are differences in status、property and also in appearance, but all the human being are equal in personality.
We also remember her striving for life, her toughness and her confidence…
When we think of this girl, what she gave us was not a pretty face or a transcendent temperament that make us admire deeply, but a huge charm of her personality.

Book report on ‘Jane Eyre’
Jane Eyre, one of the most famous works of Charlotte Bronte’s, is an inspiring story about a miserable girl who pursue freedom, independence and true love. The story of the independent minded Jane and her love affair with Mr. Rochester opened up new dimensions for women both as writer and generations of feminists. Jane Eyre, the tough girl, really impresses me very much.
One of Jane’s impressive and admiring personalities is her self-respect. She wasn’t beautiful, and the ordinary appearance didn’t make others feel good of her. And some others even thought that she was easy to look down on and to tease. But as Jane had said: ‘Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!’ This is the idea of self-respect in Jane Eyre’s mind. God hadn’t given her beauty and wealth, but instead, God gave her a kind mind and a thinking brain. Her idea of self-respect impresses me so much and let me feel the power inside her body.
The other gorgeous personality I value very much is her selfless love. After leaving Thornfield with a broken heart, Jane experienced quite a lot. She refused the proposal of St. John, a handsome priest who helped her a lot when she was starving. Later, Jane inherited a wealth of fortune from her uncle which she shared with her three cousins. But when hearing that Mr. Rochester had lost his eyesight and made his body serious injured while saving his mad wife in a conflagration during which his wife died and all his property was destroyed, Jane returned to Thornfield immediately and devoted her love to Mr. Rochester. What a great decision for her to go back! If I were Jane, I couldn’t promise to get married with Mr. Rochester who is in such a terrible situation. However, Jane did with all her heart!
I like the novel very much, especially the character ‘Jane Eyre’ who is a great woman in my mind. Jane makes me realize the importance of self-respect and understand what the true love is. In this sophisticated society, we may not avoid being contaminated, but we can remind ourselves of Jane Eyre and try to be an independent and strong-minded person who treasures self-esteem and true love.
简爱英语读后感9
‘WE ARE EQUAL!’ When these three words came out of the plain-looking girl’s mouth, the whole world was shocked.
We have good reason to be shocked——deprived of family happiness from an early age, with neither beauty nor wealth to speak of, Jane Eyre seems to be never destined to bee the heroine shining in the spotlight we often read about in romances——but is there really such a thing called destiny? At least Jane doesn’t think so. She is not pretty; she is not rich; she is a mere ordinary governess, so what? As an individual human existence, she has dignity as well as anyone else, so she deserves the chance to love and to be loved as well as anyone else! Despite her short, delicate body, her soul is not the least weaker than others’——even greater than most of them. The moment she said the three powerful words to Mr. Rochester proudly and steadily, her pale face must have been sparkling with sacredness, which would have made her the most beautiful woman ever, because the beauty of independence is eternal. With this spirit of independence she not only gained herself love, respect and happiness but also proved to the world that nobody is second class——unless you believe yourself to be.
Hundreds of thousands of ordinary girls that usually get neglected in life——me included——love and admire Jane deeply because she inspires and encourages us to strive for our life goals against all odds bravely. She is a role model, an idol in our hearts but at the same time a friend, a big sister next door who’s not at all cold and distant, always ready and willing to stand by our side whenever we are in trouble. Every time when I feel inferior, puzzled and lose faith in myself and the strength to carry on the life path already chosen, Jane, my dear friend’s determined face and forceful words on that serene summer night would emerge inside my mind, which never failed to relight my fire of passion. Oh, how I long to be like her.
But it’s not that I totally believe in her life story, by which I mean I don’t think the story of hers can happen to anybody. To me, it’s somewhat like a fairy tale that begins with ‘long long ago’ and ends with ‘ever after’, in which the prince and princess, though having suffered much in the process of getting together, would always end up in a harmonious marriage and enjoy all the best life has to offer. Being an obscure girl herself, the author Charlotte Bronte was so generous as to have provided our dear Jane a Mr. Rochester who loves her just the way she is, appreciates her unique character and a kindhearted family (later proved to be her relatives) that took her in when she was helpless and offered her a job to support herself. In reality, not every Jane Eyre can meet the proper people at the right time, just as not every ugly duckling can turn into a graceful swan——it may depend on a matter of luck. If you are too obsessed with fairy tales, you are very likely to feel disappointed and deceived by the not-so-perfect everyday life. But what are fairy tales for? We love to read them and we tend to believe in them even though we know they are not real. Sometimes we do need a little romantic daydream as seasonings in the routine of life, and we also need an ideal to believe in, a creed to live by, and a northern star to show us directions on the long journey.
That’s maybe what Jane Eyre is for——it gives numerous mon girls a possibility to look forward to, a life to reach for, and above all, a positive attitude to face all odds to encounter. Perhaps we can’t all have her luck, but we can have her independence, confidence, persistence, the courage of standing up to fight for ourselves against those seemingly taller than us, and the faith that we can finally win because WE ARE EQUAL.
简爱英语读后感10
《Jane Eyre》 Written by Charlotte Bronte 《Jane Eyre》is the greatest love story ever told and is a literary work which has a long history . 《Jane Eyre》explains such an attitude: human beings’ value equals to self-esteem plus love.
The author of 《Jane Eyre》――Charlotte Bronte and the author of 《Wuthering Heights》――Emily Jane Bronte are sisters. Although they lived under the same circumstances, they owned totally different characters. Charlotte Bronte is gentler than Emily Jane Bronte. She was so poor when she was young and she nearly could not feel her parents’ love, in addition that she was not attractive and was very short, so all of these reflected her self-humiliation. She had a strong sense of self-esteem, and she often compensated the self-humiliation of her self-esteem.
She described Jane Eyre, in fact, she wrote herself. Jane Eyre was as common as Charlotte Bronte, and she kept going after a kind of free, bright and beautiful life because of her self-esteem. However, the two sisters passed away in their golden times. It seems the God who doesn’t like them that he punished them and destroyed them. What a pity! The main idea of《Jane Eyre》is to build a strong and independent woman according to describe a complicated love story between Jane Eyre and Mr Rochester. Jane Eyre was born in a poor family and she lost her parents in her early age. Therefore, she had to depend on others for a living. She bore her aunt’s abandon, her sister’s disgust as well as her brother’s insult. However, she did not despair, and she did not self-destruction.
On the contrary, she stuck to struggle with everything and achieved the success at last. It is a power of love. Unfortunately, in her daily life of the school, she was often insulted and scolded by the Providers and always bore the physical and spiritual torments. But she did not give up but made a great progress. Finally, she obtained her teachers and classmates’ understanding. Shortly, Jane Eyre came across another difficulty that was she fell in love with Rochester. Her strong personality made her maintain the personal dignity. When she faced her rival in love Yinggelamug, she was not inferior to the aggressive girl. Similarly, in the face of Rochester, she never felt shameful owe to she is a family teacher. The other way round, she considered they were equal and should be respected by others.
It is because of her integrity, noble, pure and soul without secular social pollution. Rochester was moved by her greatest respect and deeply in love with her. He was sincere, so she accepted him. Later, Jane Eyre found Rochester had a wife, so she decided to leave him without any hesitation. It shows her self-esteem again. At last, when Jane knew that Rochester was disabled and blind in order to rescue his wife, she returned to his embrace again. From this book, it can be reflected in the emergent shape of a female image in the industrial revolution era. Novel design a very bright end. Although Rochester ruined the estate, he became a disability, but we see that Jane Eyre was no longer in contradiction between self-esteem and love. She satisfied herself and Rochester in the end. From all the things, I believe nothing’s gonna change the love for everyone, it is mere confidence. Novel tells us that the best life is human beings’ dignity and love, the outcome of the novel arranged heroine a perfect life. Although I feel that this conclusion is too perfect, even this in itself marked a shallow, but I still respect the author for such a good life ideals — is the dignity and love, after all, in today’s society, people often require money to pay the help.
Choose between poor and rich is the main factor to choose whether love or not. Few will abandon the wealth because of love like Jane Eyre. So it is like a cup of ice that cleans up every reader’s mind, while causing readers, especially female readers’ resonance.
简爱英语读后感11
I first read "Jane Eyre" in eighth grade and have read it every few years since.
It is one of my favorite novels, and so much more than a gothic romance to me, although that's how I probably would have defined it at age 13.
I have always been struck, haunted in a way, by the characters - Jane and Mr.
Rochester.
They take on new depth every time I meet them...and their's is a love story for the ages.
Charlotte Bronte's first published novel, and her most noted work, is a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story.
Jane is plain, poor, alone and unprotected, but due to her fierce independence and strong will she grows and is able to defy society's expectations of her.
This is definitely feminist literature, published in 1847, way before the beginning of any feminist movement.
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the novel has had such a wide following since it first came on the market.
It is also one of the first gothic romances published and defines the genre.
Jane Eyre, who is our narrator, was born into a poor family.
Her parents died when she was a small child and the little girl was sent to live with her Uncle and Aunt Reed at Gateshead.
Jane's Uncle truly cared for her and showed his affection openly, but Mrs.
Reed seemed to hate the orphan, and neglected her while she pampered and spoiled her own children.
This unfair treatment emphasized Jane's status as an unwanted outsider.
She was often punished harshly.
On one occasion her nasty cousin Jack picked a fight with her.
Jane tried to defend herself and was locked in the terrifying "Red Room" as a result.
Jane's Uncle Reed had died in this room a little while before, and Mrs.
Reed knew how frightened she was of the chamber.
Since Jane is the narrator, the reader is given a first-hand impression of the child's feelings, her heightened emotional state at being imprisoned.
Indeed, she seems almost like an hysterical child, filled with terror and rage.
She repeatedly calls her condition in life "unjust" and is filled with bitterness.
Looking into the mirror Jane sees a distorted image of herself.
She views her reflection and sees a "strange little figure," or "tiny phantom." Jane has not learned yet to subordinate her passions to her reason.
Her passions still erupt unchecked.
Her isolation in the Red Room is a presentiment of her later isolation from almost every society and community.
This powerful, beautifully written scene never fails to move me.
Mrs.
Reed decided to send Jane away to the Lowood School, a poor institution run by Mr.
Brocklehurst, who believed that suffering made grand people.
All the children there were neglected, except to receive harsh punishment when any mistake was made.
At Lowood, Jane met Helen Burns, a young woman a little older than Jane, who guided her with vision, light and love for the rest of her life.
Jane's need for love was so great.
It really becomes obvious in this first friendship.
Helen later died from fever, in Jane's arms.
Her illness and death could have been avoided if more attention had been paid to the youths.
Jane stayed at Lowood for ten years, eight as a student and two as a teacher.
Tired and depressed by her surroundings, Jane applied for the position of governess and found employment at Thornfield.
The mansion is owned by a gentleman named Edward Fairfax Rochester.
Her job there was to teach his ward, an adorable little French girl, Adele.
Over a long period the moody, inscrutable Rochester confides in Jane and she in him.
The two form an unlikely friendship and eventually fall in love.
Again, Jane's need for love comes to the fore, as does her passionate nature.
She blooms.
A dark, gothic figure, Rochester also has a heart filled with the hope of true love and future happiness with Jane.
Ironically, he has brought all his misery, past and future, on himself.
All is not as it seems at Thornfield.
There is a strange, ominous woman servant, Grace Poole, who lives and works in an attic room.
She keeps to herself and is rarely seen.
From the first, however, Jane has sensed bizarre happenings at night, when everyone is asleep .There are wild cries along with violent attempts on Rochester's life by a seemingly unknown person.
Jane wonders why no one investigates Mrs.
Poole.
Then a strange man visits Thornfield and mysteriously disappears with Mr.
Rochester.
Late that night Jane is asked to sit with the man while the lord of the house seeks a doctor's help.
The man has been seriously wounded and is weak from loss of blood.
He leaves by coach, in a sorry state, first thing in the morning.
Jane's questions are not answered directly.
This visit will have dire consequences on all involved.
An explosive secret revealed will destroy all the joyful plans that Jane and Rochester have made.
Jane, once more will face poverty and isolation.
Charlotte Bronte's heroine Jane Eyre, may not have been graced with beauty or money, but she had a spirit of fire and was filled with integrity and a sense of independence - character traits that never waned in spite of all the oppression she encountered in life.
Ms.
Bronte brings to the fore in "Jane Eyre" such issues as: the relations between men and women in the mid-19 century, women's equality, the treatment of children and of women, religious faith and hypocrisy (and the difference between the two), the realization of selfhood, and the nature of love and passion.
This is a powerhouse of a novel filled with romance, mystery and passions.
It is at once startlingly fresh and a portrait of the times.
Ms.
Bronte will make your heart beat faster, your pulse race and your eyes fill with tears.

Jane Eyre, is a poor but aspiring, small in body but huge in soul, obscure but self-respecting girl. After we close the covers of the book, after having a long journey of the spirit, Jane Eyre, a marvelous figure, has left us so much to recall and to think:
We remember her goodness: for someone who lost arms and blinded in eyes, for someone who despised her for her ordinariness, and even for someone who had hurt her deeply in the past.
We remember her pursuit of justice. It’s like a companion with the goodness. But still, a virtuous person should promote the goodness on one side and must check the badness on the other side.
We remember her self-respect and the clear situation on equality. In her opinion, everyone is the same at the God’s feet. Though there are differences in status、in property and also in appearance, but all the human being are equal in personality.
We also remember her striving for life, her toughness and her confidence…
When we think of this girl, what she gave us was not a pretty face or a transcendent temperament that make us admire deeply, but a huge charm of her ersonality.
Actually, she wasn’t pretty, and of course, the ordinary appearance didn’t make others feel good of her, even her own aunt felt disgusted with it. And some others even thought that she was easy to look down on and to tease, so when Miss Ingram met Jane Eyre, she seemed quite contemptuous, for that she was obviously much more prettier than ‘the plain and ugly governess’. But as the little governess had said: ‘Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!’ This is the idea of equality in Jane Eyre’s mind. God hadn’t given her beauty and wealth, but instead, God gave her a kind mind and a thinking brain. Her idea of equality and self-respect impress us so much and let us feel the power inside her body.
In my mind, though a person’s beauty on the face can make others once feel that one is attractive and charming, if his or her mind isn’t the same beautiful as the appearance, such as beauty cannot last for, when others find that the beauty which had charmed them was only a falsity, it’s not true, they will like the person no more. For a long time, only a person’s GREat virtue, a noble soul, a beautiful heart can be called as AN EVERLASTING BEAUTY, just as Kahill Gibran has said, that ‘Beauty is a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted’. I can feel that how beauty really is, as we are all fleshly men, so we can’t distinguish whether a man is of nobleness or humbleness, but fleshly men, so we can’t distinguish whether a man is of nobleness or humbleness, but as there are great differences in our souls, and from that, we can know that whether a man is noble or ordinary, and even obscure, that is, whether he is beautiful or not.
Her story makes us thinking about life and we learn much from her experience, at least, that is a fresh new recognition of the real beauty.

Recently, I have reading the book "Jane Eyre”。 Although I forgot some details in the book, Jane gave me deeply impression, I admire her very much. After that the teacher also told us to put the play in to a movie, and then we all can touch each hero’s soul in the book. The play it mainly tell us how Jane is growing up when suffering from great difficulties and painless. whats more, it is impressed me that she still love her master even if he is blind at last due to rescue his mad wife.
And I like the Classic lines what Jane said to Mr. Rochester :"Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?--a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!--I have as much soul as you,--and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you.
I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh;--it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at Gods feet, equal,--as we are!" its so beautiful, Jane is a girl who will never lose confidence in life and always sensible when handling with some motional problems. Jane was huge in my heart. She can control her life and fate. She knew how to continue her life and she got it!
Maybe after what she told me I have known that what love is and how to love and to be loved! The book is a book worth of reading, so all in all let’s enjoy it!
