God is most often conceived of as the supernatural creator and overseer of the universe. Theologians have ascribed a variety of attributes to the many different conceptions of God. The most common among these include omniscience全知, omnipotence全能, and omnipresence 遍在. God has also been conceived as being incorporeal, a personal being, the source of all moral obligations, and the "greatest conceivable existence". These attributes were all supported to varying degrees by the early Jewish Christian philosophers. Most major religions hold God not as a metaphor, but a being that influences our daily life and day-to-day existences.

经但名著阅读《德伯家的苔丝》中英对照《德伯家的苔丝》Tess went down the hill to Trantridge Cross, and inattentively waited to take her seat in the van returning from Chaseborough to Shaston. She did not know what the other occupants said to her as she entered, though she answered them; and when they had started anew she rode along with an inward and not an outward eye.苔丝下了山，走到特兰里奇十字路口，漫不经心地在那儿等着搭乘从猎苑回沙斯顿的马车。
她上车的时候，车里其他的乘客同她说话，她虽然也回答了他们，但并不知道他们说了些什么;他们乘坐的马车又接着上路了，苔丝一路上沉浸在内心的回忆中，对车外的一切视若无睹。
One among her fellow-travellers addressed her more pointedly than any had spoken before: 'Why, you be quite a posy! And such roses in early June!'在和她同乘一辆车的旅客中间，有一个人对她说的话比先前的一些人说的话更直截了当:“唉呀，你简直变成了一束花了～这还在六月初呀，就有这么多好看的玫瑰花了～”Then she became aware of the spectacle she presented to their surprised vision: roses at her breast; roses in her hat; roses andstrawberries in her basket to the brim. She blushed, and said confusedly that the flowers had been given to her. When the passengers were not looking she stealthily removed the more prominent blooms from her hat and placed them in the basket, where she covered them with her handkerchief. Then she fell to reflecting again, and in looking downwards a thorn of the rose remaining in her breast accidentally pricked her chin. Like all the cottagers in Blackmoor Vale, Tess was steeped in fancies and prefigurative superstitions; she thought this an ill omen - the first she had noticed that day.接着，她终于意识到在他们惊异的目光里，她表现出来的是怎样一种滑稽的情形了:胸前戴着玫瑰花;帽子上插着玫瑰花;篮子里也装满了玫瑰花和草莓。

德伯家的苔丝英文鉴赏
德伯家的苔丝英文鉴赏Reaction to Tess of the D’UrbervillesIt’s the second time I have read the novel “Tess of the D’Urbervilles”. I have a great impression on this novel, and its author, Thomas Hardy.Thomas Hardy, born in 1840 in Dorsetshire and died in 1928, was an English novelist and poet. Thomas's father was a stonemason and his mother was interested in literature. Under his mother's influences, Hardy began to write at 22. In 1856, Hardy left school and then he apprenticed under a local architect. After that, he became an assistant to a British architect. In this time, he learned literature and philosophy by his own. In 1867, he returned to his hometown and started to write novels. "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" was one of the two most famous novels which were written in 1890s."Tess of the D'Urbervilles" narrates a story about a country girl, who is innocent, beautiful, bright and plain killing a man after being driven desperate. At the beginning of the novel, Tess helps her father to deliver goods into the town by driving a cart. However, she bumps into a mail cart in the dark night. As a result, the old horse is hurt to death in this accident. So Tess gets into a big trouble. In order to atone for her crime and also to support her family, she goes to work in D'Urbervilles'. During these days, one day Alec rapes her in woods. After losing her virginity, Tess leaves Alec and goes home. She gives birth to a child at home, but unfortunately, the child dies soon. Then, she works in a dairy factory and falls in love with Angel Clare. On their wedding night, Clare knows that T ess has lost her virginity. So, he leaves Tess to Brazil. Poor Tess goes to work in anther factory. After her father'sdeath, the landlord takes back the house. Tess has to go back to Alec, so that her families could have a place to live. One day, Clare returns to look for Tess suddenly when he realizes his false. In great pain, Tess kills Alec with a knife. At the end, Tess is hung to death as a murder.In the novel, Tess is a modern woman idealized by Hardy. In an ideal world of Hardy, Tess is the symbol of beauty and the embodiment of love, representing the Wessex people of all good merits: beautiful, kind, pure, plain, love and tolerance. She dares to sacrifice herself with the hope to have a good life. She has a characteristic feeling of the love and trust. The women’s gentle and brave are melted well in her. Tess is a beautiful woman with temperament, strong will and warm feelin gs. She’s also upright and honesty. Instead of pursuing vanities by marriage, she chooses to pursue freedom basing on self-esteem.However, the end of Tess’s life is pathetic. I felt great sympathy for her. I wonder why this beautiful and pure girl has suc h a pathetic ending. But, this is T ess’s fate. I never believe fate, but I have to doubt my opinions after reading the novel. Every man who has read the novel knows that her life has always been passive. She has tried to revolt her fate only once, but has lost her life. Compared with fate, she is too small, and the tragedy of Tess maybe caused by the age. Dark ages brought the opportunists a lot of money meanwhile it makes the kind people suffer the misfortunes. Although Tess fails in revolting her fate, she is so brave that I want to give her my best respect.To me, she is a brave woman who wants to get rid of the bondage of fate. Tess’s death is superior to her fate, instead of yielding to it, and we need this kind of unyielding soul. But, there are also s ome weaknesses in Tess’s characters. Tess is bold andshe dares to fight against traditional morals to pursue her happiness, but she can’t completely set herself free from traditional morals. It shows the weak side of her characters. She has been criticized by people and persecuted by the traditional morals. And it’s so pathetic that she has always been tortured by the same traditional standard. Thus, the tragic appears deeper.Considering her tragedy, I can’t help asking who is to blame for that. Besides I’ve mentioned above, I think, at least two men have to be responsible for Tess’s tragedy, Aleck and Angel.Maybe, you’ll ask why Angel doesn’t accept the cruel truth that T ess has been raped by Alec and has given birth to a child. Why Angel leaves her? Doe sn’t he love Tess? Well, I’d like to say that he loves Tess so much that he can’t stand her impurity. In his eyes, Tess is beautiful and kind, and she is the symbol of purity. He can’t accept the cruel fact and makes his best to control his love to Tess. He thinks that the girl before him is not Tess, but a girl looks like her. In his mind, the real Tess has died. His heartlessness and abortion of Tess show his hates to the fate.As for Aleck, I don’t want to say more. The tragedy he has brought to Tess is obvious. All he has done to Tess is not out of love, because love is noble, but all he wants to get from Tess is lust. Alec is wealthy and evil. He seduces Tess, and that’s the direct cause of Tess’s tragedy.We all know that another name of this novel is “A Pure Woman”. In Hardy’s eyes, Tess is pure and brave. He shows great sympathy to Tess. At that age, men dominated the society, while women didn’t realize their rights. They are limited by the traditional morals and religion rules. In the novel, Tess is a poor victim, but because of the culture of the society, the other womendon’t show their sympathies to her. They criticize her and fabricate rumors to defame her. It’s such a tragedy that women don’t help women. As a boy, after reading the novel, I feel more sympathy for Tess. I don’t understand the thoughts of those people living in that age, but today, well, men and women are equal.。
