《格列佛游记》英文读后感《格列佛游记》英文读后感（精选33篇）《格列佛游记》英文读后感 1One of the most interesting questions about Gullivers Travels is whether the Houyhnhnms represent an ideal of rationality or whether on the other hand they are the butt of Swifts satire. In other words, in Book IV, is Swift poking fun at the talking horses or does he intend for us to take them seriously as the proper way to act? If we look closely at the way that the Houyhnhnms act, we can see that in fact Swift does not take them seriously: he uses them to show the dangers of pride.First we have to see that Swift does not even take Gullver seriously. For instance, his name sounds much like gullible, which suggests that he will believe anything. Also, when he first sees the Yahoos and they throw excrement on him, he responds by doing the same in return until they run away. He says, I must needs discover some more rational being, even though as a human he is already the most rational being there is. This is why Swift refers to Erasmus Darwins discovery of the origin of the species and the voyage of the Beagle-to show how Gulliver knows that people are at the top of the food chain. But if Lemule Gulliver is satirized, so are the Houyhnhnms, whose voices sound like the call of castrati. They walk on two legs instead of four, and seem to be much like people. As Gulliver says, It was with the utmost astonishment that I witnessed these creatures playing the flute and dancing a Vienese waltz. To my mind, they seemed like the greatest humans ever seen in court, even more dextrous than the Lord Edmund Burke . As this quote demonstrates, Gulliver is terribly impressed, but his admiration for the Houyhnhnms isshort-lived because they are so prideful. For instance, the leader of the Houyhnhnms claims that he has read all the works of Charles Dickens, and that he can singlehandedly recite the names of all the Kings and Queens of England up to George II. Swift subtly shows that this Houyhnhnms pride is misplaced when, in the middle of the intellectual competition, he forgets the name of Queen Elizabeths husband.Swifts satire of the Houyhnhnms comes out in other ways as well. One of the most memorable scenes is when the dapple grey mare attempts to woo the horse that Guenivre has brought with him to the island. First she acts flirtatiously, parading around the bewildered horse. But when this does not have the desired effect, she gets another idea: As I watched in amazement from my perch in the top of a tree, the sorrel nag dashed off and returned with a yahoo on her back who was yet more monstrous than Mr. Pope being fitted by a clothier. She dropped this creature before my nag as if offering up a sacrifice. My horse sniffed the creature and turned away. It might seem that we should take this scene seriously as a failed attempt at courtship, and that consequently we should see the grey mare as an unrequited lover. But it makes more sense if we see that Swift is being satiric here: it is the female Houyhnhnm who makes the move, which would not have happened in eighteenth-century England. The Houyhnhm is being prideful, and it is that pride that makes him unable to impress Gullivers horse. Gulliver imagines the horse saying, Sblood, the notion of creating the bare backed beast with an animal who had held Mr. Pope on her back makes me queezy .A final indication that the Houyhnmns are not meant to be taken seriously occurs when the leader of the Houynhms visits Lilliput, where he visits the French Royal Society. He goes into aroom in which a scientist is trying to turn wine into water (itself a prideful act that refers to the marriage at Gallilee). The scientist has been working hard at the experiment for many years without success, when the Houyhnmn arrives and immediately knows that to do: The creature no sooner stepped through the doorway than he struck upon a plan. Slurping up all the wine in sight, he quickly made water in a bucket that sat near the door .He has accomplished the scientists goal, but the scientist is not happy, for his livelihood has now been destroyed. Swifts clear implication is that even though the Houyhnhmns are smart, they do not know how to use that knowledge for the benefit of society, only for their own prideful agrandizement.Throughout Gullivers Travels, the Houyhnhms are shown to be an ideal gone wrong. Though their intent might have been good, they dont know how to do what they want to do because they are filled with pride. They mislead Gulliver and they even mislead themselves. The satire on them is particularly well explained by the new born Houyhnhm who, having just been born, exclaims, With this sort of entrance, what must I expect from the rest of my life!《格列佛游记》英文读后感 2Dasey was more rose to return to his hometown -- Kansas.She found no brains scarecrow,embroider of iron and cowardly lion.They experienced hardship,came to the city,to see a great jade of otzi.Otzi promised them only kill western witch,achieve their wishes.The more intelligent and brave dasey rose killed evil witch rescued the lion,west,repaired her friend scarecrow and tin man.The great otzi realized they desire,a clever mind scarecrow,who had a kind heart,cowardly lion has thecourage,these are great otzi help them realize.While many Laura dasey and dog toto in southern witches and witch of the north,and finally help returned to her hometown -- Kansas,see a dear aunt and uncle Henrys love.《格列佛游记》英文读后感 3Today, I finished reading the book "the old man and the sea".

格列佛游记读后感英文
格列佛游记读后感英文第2篇：《格列佛游记》英文读后感第3篇：格列佛游记英文读后感Don’t be a Yahoo Originally accomplished by an English writer Jonathan Swift in 1726, and later on adapted for a film by Charles Sturridge and a cartoon by Peter R.Hunt, Gulliver’s Travels is such a famous satirical novel that influences both adults and children.The editionI read is one of the adaptations, published by Oxford University.I was completely absorbed in its fantastically designed plot and the deep meaning it conveys to my mind.The author, Jonathan Swift, is an English satirist, statesman and poet.He was born in a poor family in Ireland and was brought up by his uncle.When he grew up, he became a private secretary in Moore Park with other’s help.The master of the park was an experienced politician and philosopher.There’s no doubt that he gave a huge impact on Swift.During those years, Swift went through so much that after he left the park, he spared no effort to fight for freedom and independence for Irish people.The Gulliver’s Travels, wrote by the year 1726, exposing the darkne of the society at that time.The leading character—Gulliver, who travels to the imaginary lands of Lilliput, Brobdingnag, Laputa and the country of the Houyhnhnms, hadexperienced much during the expedition.All of these four voyages brought new opportunities and future to Gulliver’s life, and these are also for satirizing the way of the English.The first voyage is to Lilliput where people are extremely small, so Gulliver is a giant to Lilliputians.Lilliputians seem friendly but actually they are very ridiculous and stupid, the king even wanted to kill Gulliver because he made water to put out a fire to save the queen’s life.The second voyage is to Brobdingnag which is absolutely different from Lilliput.Gulliver is like a Lilliputian in Europe and he began to understand how a very small creature feels before a giant.Luckily, his master is very kind to him.But the king laughed at his country, which is famous for its beautiful places, its brave and honest people and criticized its inhuman, cruel ideas about murdering people.The third voyage is to putans are strange-looking and their main interests are music and mathematics.They pay little attention to others, so it’s very difficult to talk with them.Gulliver also went to the Glubdugdribb and Luggnagg nearby.In a visit to Glubdugdribb, Gulliver was able to call ghosts to answer his questions.In Luggnagg, he learnt something about Stuldbrugs, who are miserable for their long lives with poor heath.The last voyage is to the country of Houyhnhnms, which is controlled by horses.Gulliver felt happy with these sensible, gentle creatures, which never lied or stole, ina country which had no disease, no crime, and no wars.But at last, he had to leave.On returning to England, Gulliver felt disappointed with other humans, including his children and wife.He found himself is so stupid to think that he could bring reason and truth into their lives and thoughts.So he told others to keep away from him.As the narrator said “human are all Yahoos and Yahoos they will remain”.Yahoo, described as an ugly animal, is a reflection of human beings.Yahoos had human faces and they also so violently fond of the pieces of gold or silver that they dig for days to get them out of the ground, and hide them jealously from other yahoos.This is really an action of human.I don’t like people who are always thinking about how to attack other countries and kill tens of thousands of people who have never hurt them.They do these only with the purpose of conquering more lands.As far as I’m concerned, if we think like the horses in Houyhnhnms, don’t let lies, crimes and wars exist, our world would be more beautiful and peaceful.In a word, don’t be a Yahoo!第4篇：格列佛游记英文读后感Gulliver's Travel格列佛游记英文读后感（原创，人格保证）"When bending my eyes downward as much as I could, I perceiveda human not six inches high!" I haven't read this book since I read it as a child, and it was amazing how much of it had stuck with me, and how vividly.Gulliver's Travels is one of the most exciting adventures novels.I like reading the adventure stories ,and I read many books,but Gulliver's Travels is one of the most exciting fantasy adventures ever written.Gulliver's Travels are broken up into four parts.The first two parts are the most famous, where Gulliver visits is a land in which he is a giant and another in which it is filled with giants。

格列佛游记读后感英语作文（大全五篇）
格列佛游记读后感英语作文（大全五篇）第一篇：格列佛游记读后感英语作文My thought after reading “Gulliver's travels” This book ,whose name is “Gulliver's travels”, written with satire and humor spice, strange imagination and exaggeration, describes Gulliver who loves sailing adventure everywhere around the world, has experienced large and small, thrilling and interesting adventure.In Lilliput, he became a huge monster, invulnerable, even though swallow dozens of head of cattles ,he will still not fill his stomach;in Brobdingnag, he has become a doll of giants, which was played in the palm of giants' hands, and fight against flies and bees;later, he came to the mysterious flying island, where people use the power of the lower part of birds and the force of a magnet at the bottom of the seabed, to move follow their own bent, meanwhile ,it is also a strange country where ghost can be summoned at any time to engage in some special communication, and people make rather baffling study;also in the Houyhnhnms which is a shame , where things upside down ,there are many of the more unbelievable stories took place there.As reading, I dream I with The Gulliver together get into a fantasy world of that.Those little people who like doll, tall and mighty giants, like a flying fish flying island residents, as well as the Houyhnhnms' people and Jehu, left me deep impression, and make me so surprised and happy.Meanwhile ,in this story hero Gulliver at the face of the crisis, witty, brave, and resourceful, gets out of the danger time after time.As far as I am concerned ,this is what we are supposed to learn, no matter what difficulties we encounter and however difficult question need we solve, we must keep calm, have positive response to overcome the trouble wemeet!We should apply the spirit that don't fear of difficulties to study and life!第二篇：格列佛游记英语读后感格列佛游记英语读后感Gulliver’s Travel is a fairy tale written by Jonathan Swift.It’s a very interesting story full of imagination.Besides, the description is vivid and appealing, when I read it I feel like I’m traveling with the hero in the story.Jonathan Swift was born in Ireland, but his parents are English.He has written many books such as A Tale of A Tub and The Battle of Books, respectively criticizes and attacks the corruption of religion and prejudice of scholar authority.His Drapier’s letters reveals the attempt of England to destroy the economy of Ireland.For this reason, English government awarded 300pounds for catching Swift.However, nobody in Ireland betrayed him.Swift died in 1745, and he said in his testament that he would give all his property to the charity.Gulliver’s Travels tells a story of Captain Gulliver’s unique experience.Gulliver has a strong desire of traveling around the world since he grew up.However, when he became a captain, he travels not between different countries but between strange places we never imagine.The first time, his boat encountered a storm and he swan to the shore.When he woke up he found himself surrounded by small men later he realized he had come to the country “Liliput”，which was a country of small men.In the country, the people treated him very friendly, they gave him food and drink and wine.He? lived happily and he was nice to them as ter, the king asked him to help fight the other country Blefuscu for a very amusing reason: people there break their eggs at the big end while people in Liliput break eggs on the small end.Gulliver helped the king win the battle andsoon after that he went home.The second time, he set sail and met a fierce storm again.This time he found a land which was a country named Broadingnag.It was a country of giants.You can guess his whereabouts.The huge people treated him as a pet.They put him on show, give speech and do sword drill, till he was tired ter he was sent to the Queen, the Queen liked him very much and had him dine with her everyday.But life was not easy for him.Nevertheless, something interesting happened.When he wanted to read, he had to climb up on the book and walk from left to right to read a line.Imagine that scene I couldn’t help laughing.Another story is playing the piano.He had to strike the keys hard with his first.People comment the book as a satire to England even to the whole Europe.In detail, that is, the first experience use the amusing reason of war to criticize the parties and religion of England, the second experience satirizes the boast and conceit of the whole Europeans.Nevertheless, in my opinion, I only see the vivid portrayal and th e interesting imagination.Maybe it’s because it’s the first time I read the story and know not so much about the background and situation of the author and his society, but the story really impresses me.I like the exotic experience of Gulliver, and I like Swifer’s imagination.A masterpiece which can influence generation after generation surely has its reason, maybe for the profound understanding of history, maybe for the description of people’s life.This novel may have something to do with sarcasm, but to me, at least by now, is a pure fantasy and a wonderful fairy tale.第三篇：格列佛游记读后感《格列佛游记》是一本十分著名的小说，大家在读过以后有什么感悟呢？以下是小编收集的格列佛游记读后感五篇，仅供大家阅读参考！格列佛游记读后感一这个暑假，我读了一本书，名叫《格列佛游记》。

格列佛游记读后感英语300字《格列佛游记》读后感Reflections on "Gulliver's Travels""Gulliver's Travels," a satirical novel by Jonathan Swift, takes readers through a series of fantastical adventures in different lands. The story, although filled with humor and irony, carries profound messages about human nature and society.What struck me most about this book is its exploration of power, politics, and the human condition. Through Gulliver's encounters with the Lilliputians, the Brobdingnagians, and other bizarre creatures, Swift commentary on the absurdities and follies of human society becomes apparent. The novel also highlights the importance of courage, perseverance, and rational thinking in the face of adversity.Reading "Gulliver's Travels" left me with a renewed sense of wonder and curiosity about the world.

格列佛游记英文观后感After reading ＂Gulliver's Travels"， I was deeply impressed by Jonathan Swift's vivid imagination and sharp satire This novel is not just an adventure story but also a profound reflection on human society and human natureThe protagonist, Lemuel Gulliver, embarks on several extraordinary voyages, each taking him to a strange and fantastical land In Lilliput, where the people are tiny, he discovers the pettiness and absurdity of power struggles The tiny Lilliputians fight over trivial matters like which end of an egg to break, and this absurdity mirrors the equally petty and often meaningless disputes among humans in our own world Their obsession with power and status, despite their minuscule size, shows that human vices are not dependent on physical stature but are deeply rooted in our natureIn Brobdingnag, the opposite occurs Gulliver is the tiny one among giants Here, Swift contrasts the physical enormity of the Brobdingnagians with their simple, virtuous, and wise nature This contrast makes us question our assumptions about size and significance Are we, in our ＂normal" size, any more intelligent or virtuous than those who are either smaller or larger than us? It forces us to look beyond appearances and consider the true value of wisdom and moralityThe flying island of Laputa and the land of the Houyhnhnms also offer unique perspectives Laputa represents the absurdity of theoretical knowledge divorced from practical application, and the selfabsorbedintellectuals who float above the realities of life The Houyhnhnms, on the other hand, are noble and rational horses, while the humanlike Yahoos are depicted as brutish and vile This inversion challenges our notions of what it means to be civilized and intelligentSwift's satire is not only humorous but also cutting He uses these fantastical settings and characters to expose the follies and vices of human society, such as war, corruption, greed, and vanity Through Gulliver's experiences, we see how power corrupts, how pride blinds, and how ignorance limits our progressThe book also makes me think about the nature of exploration and discovery Gulliver's travels are not just physical but also intellectual and moral He is constantly challenged by the new and the unfamiliar, and through these challenges, he （and we, the readers) are forced to reevaluate our beliefs and values It reminds us that true exploration is not just about visiting new places but about opening our minds and hearts to new ideas and ways of thinkingIn conclusion, ＂Gulliver's Travels" is a timeless classic that continuesto resonate with readers of all ages It is a reminder of our flaws and potential, and a call to be more critical, more compassionate, and more wise in our dealings with the world and each other It is a book that makes us laugh at the absurdity of human behavior while also encouraging us to strive for betterment Reading it has been a thoughtprovoking and enriching experience that I will carry with me for a long time。

英语格林佛游记读后感英语《格列佛游记》读后感英文版："Gulliver's Travels" is a masterpiece of Jonathan Swift, a British writer. It is a famous travel-themed satirical novel. The plot is mainly about the journeys of Lemuel Gulliver, a surgeon, to four countries, Lilliput, Brobdingnag, Laputa and Houyhnhnmland. Through Gulliver's experiences in these four countries, the novel reflects the corruption and vice of the ruling class in the first half of the 18th century in England.It is also noteworthy that the author uses rich satirical and imaginative means to describe the strange and extraordinary things in the novel, which deeply reflects the meaningless party struggle in the British Parliament at that time, the corruption and avarice of the ruling class, and its criticism of the cruelty of colonial warfare. At the same time, it also eulogizes the heroic struggle of the colonized people to some extent.The book was first published in England in 1726 and was immediately popular with readers. It has been translated into dozens of languages and is widely read all over the world. In China, it is also one of the most influential foreign literary works and is listed as a compulsory reading book for new curriculum standards. Three films based on its content have been released on the big screen since 1977.As an AI language model, I have no visual ability and can't see movies. But I can tell you that "Gulliver's Travels" is a time-honored classic with deep cultural value. If you are interested in it, you can read it or watch the movie to experience its unique charm.。

格列佛游记英文读后感 1 Gulliver’s Travel is a fairy tale written by Jonathan Swift. It’s a very interesting story full of imagination. Besides, the description is vivid and appealing, when I read it I feel like I’m traveling with the hero in the story.Jonathan Swift was born in Ireland, but his parents are English. He has written many books such as A Tale of A Tub and The Battle of Books, respectively criticizes and attacks the corruption of religion and prejudice of scholar authority. His Drapier’s letters reveals the attempt of England to destroy the economy of Ireland. For this reason, English government awarded 300pounds for catching Swift. However, nobody in Ireland betrayed him. Swift died in 1745, and he said in his testament that he would give all his property to the charity.Gulliver’s Travels tells a story of Captain Gulliver’s unique experience. Gulliver has a strong desire of traveling around the world since he grew up. However, when he became a captain, he travels not between different countries but between strange places we never imagine.The first time, his boat encountered a storm and he swan to the shore. When he woke up he found himself surrounded by small men later he realized he had come to the country “Liliput”，which was a country of small men. In the country, the people treated him very friendly, they gave him food and drink and wine. He? lived happily and he was nice to them as well. Later, the king asked him to help fight the other country Blefuscu for a very amusing reason: people there break their eggs at the big end while people in Liliput break eggs on the small end. Gulliver helped the king win the battle and soon after that he went home.The second time, he set sail and met a fierce storm again. This time he found a land which was a country named Broadingnag. It was a country of giants. You can guess his whereabouts. The huge people treated him as a pet. They put him on show, give speech and do sword drill, till he was tired out. Later he was sent to the Queen, the Queen liked him very much and had him dine with her everyday. But life was not easy for him. Nevertheless, something interesting happened. When he wanted to read, he had to climb up on the book and walk from left to right to read a line. Imagine that scene I couldn’t help laughing. Another story is playing the piano. He had to strike the keys hard with his first.People comment the book as a satire to England even to the whole Europe. In detail, that is, the first experience use the amusing reason of war to criticize the parties and religion of England, the second experience satirizes the boast and conceit of the whole Europeans. Nevertheless, in my opinion, I only see the vivid portrayal and the interesting imagination. Maybe it’s because it’s the first time I read the story and know not so much about the background and situation of the author and his society, but the story really impresses me. I like the exotic experience of Gulliver, and I like Swifer’s imagination. A masterpiece which can influence generation after generation surely has its reason, maybe for the profound understanding of history, maybe for the description of people’s life. This novel may have something to do with sarcasm, but to me, at least by now, is a pure fantasy and a wonderful fairy tale.格列佛游记英文读后感 2 On this holiday, I read a book called Gullivers travels. Theauthor of the book is the best satirical expert and politician in Britain in the early eighteenth Century - Jonathan Swift.The first place in Gullivers adventures was the villain. There he was able to drag the entire naval fleet with one hand, a large number of chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, and lots of barrels of wine at a meal. In order to send the giant to the capital, he used five hundred craftsmen, countless ropes, nine hundred big men, fifteen thousand big royal horses, and so on. In a small country so that all competition and war inevitably seem small petty. With the height of heel partisan divide, "high-heeled party" and "low with Party infighting, neighboring countries not only irreconcilable opposed to; want to conquer and enslave each other, but also should eat egg debate where head knock like trifles" principles "problem.Giant in the country, he has become giants of the doll, was playing in the palm of your hand, and fight against flies and birds; later, he came to the mysterious flying island, people here use the flying island of the lower part of the natural magnet and the seabed under the force of a magnet, want to move, this is also a at any time, engage in some special summoned the ghost of dialogue rather baffling the study of the strange country.I admire the hero to honor to Hui from country to country, Hui from country to country is the pursuit of the ideal situation and yearning, here you dont need to worry about other people say is true, but in reality, there are so many things we dont want to see someone with blandishments cheat other peoples hard-earned money, people and children profiteering and some people even sacrifice their all for money. No wonder our parents and teachers have taught us to be vigilant and not to be deceived. This is very difficult to unite with others, who help others and love others. When I meet someone who is in trouble, I want to lend a helping hand. I hesitate. When someone comes to help me out, I cant accept it. All this makes me feel miserable, contradictory and at a loss what to do. Isnt it sad that it prevents me from "loving" other people and also "missing" other peoples love?I am looking forward to the day when our society is like the kingdom of Hui, the childrens eyes no longer have doubts, and education and reality are united.

In other words, in Book IV, is Swift poking fun at the talking horses or does he intend for us to take them seriously as the proper way to act? If we look closely at the way that the Houyhnhnms act, we can see that in fact Swift does not take them seriously: he uses them to show the dangers of pride.First we have to see that Swift does not even take Gullver seriously. For instance, his name sounds much like gullible, which suggests that he will believe anything. Also, when he first sees the Yahoos and they throw excrement on him, he responds by doing the same in return until they run away. He says, "I must needs discover some more rational being," even though as a human he is already the most rational being there is. This is why Swift refers to Erasmus Darwins discovery of the origin of the species and the voyage of the Beagle-to show how Gulliver knows that people are at the top of the food chain. But if Lemule Gulliver is satirized, so are the Houyhnhnms, whose voices sound like the call of castrati. They walk on two legs instead of four,and seem to be much like people. As Gulliver says, "It was with the utmost astonishment that I witnessed these creatures playing the flute and dancing a Vienese waltz. To my mind, they seemed like the greatest humans ever seen in court, even more dextrous than the Lord Edmund Burke" . As this quote demonstrates, Gulliver is terribly impressed, but his admiration for the Houyhnhnms is short-lived because they are so prideful. For instance, the leader of the Houyhnhnms claims that he has read all the works of Charles Dickens, and that he can singlehandedly recite the names of all the Kings and Queens of England up to George II. Swift subtly shows that this Houyhnhnms pride is misplaced when, in the middle of the intellectual competition, he forgets the name of Queen Elizabeths husband.Swifts satire of the Houyhnhnms comes out in other ways as well. One of the most memorable scenes is when the dapple grey mare attempts to woo the horse that Guenivre has brought with him to the island. First she acts flirtatiously, parading around the bewildered horse. But when this does not have the desired effect, she gets another idea: "As I watched in amazement from my perch in the top of a tree, the sorrel nag dashed off and returned with a yahoo on her back who was yet more monstrous than Mr. Pope being fitted by a clothier. She dropped this creature before my nag as if offering up a sacrifice. My horse sniffed the creature and turned away."It might seem that we should take this scene seriously as a failed attempt at courtship,and that consequently we should see the grey mare as an unrequited lover. But it makes more sense if we see that Swift is being satiric here: it is the female Houyhnhnm who makes the move, which would not have happened in eighteenth-century England. The Houyhnhm is being prideful, and it is that pride that makes him unable to impress Gullivers horse. Gulliver imagines the horse saying, Sblood, the notion of creating the bare backed beast with an animal who had held Mr. Pope on her back makes me queezy .A final indication that the Houyhnmns are not meant to be taken seriously occurs when the leader of the Houynhms visits Lilliput, where he visits the French Royal Society. He goes into a room in which a scientist is trying to turn wine into water (itself a prideful act that refers to the marriage at Gallilee). The scientist has been working hard at the experiment for many years without success, when the Houyhnmn arrives and immediately knows that to do: "The creature no sooner stepped through the doorway than he struck upon a plan. Slurping up all the wine in sight, he quickly made water in a bucket that sat near the door" .He has accomplished the scientists goal, but the scientist is not happy, for his livelihood has now been destroyed. Swifts clear implication is that even though the Houyhnhmns are smart, they do not know how to use that knowledge for the benefit of society, only for their own prideful agrandizement.Throughout Gullivers Travels, the Houyhnhms are shown to be an ideal gone wrong. Though their intent might have been good, they dont know how to do what they want to do because they are filled with pride. They mislead Gulliver and they even mislead themselves. The satire on them is particularly well explained by the new born Houyhnhm who, having just been born, exclaims, "With this sort of entrance, what must I expect from the rest of my life!"格列佛游记英文读后感 5 In this winter vacation, I read a book called Gullivers travels. This book is a famous satirical novel written by swift, a famous British satirist (I only know this later). When I bought the book, I knew the general contents of the book, because I had read the essence of the book before. There are many fantastic contents in this book. Its clearly a fantasy, but its portrayed so truthfully by the author. It seems that the author has made great efforts in creating this book. This book, written in the first person, describes the fantastic experience of a doctor named Gulliver. The doctor liked to explore the sea, but the bad luck seemed to follow him all the way -the ship capsized, the pirates met, or the crew mutinied. However, due to these misfortunes, he came to four magical islands. On the four islands he came to, either the people on the island were very small, or the people on the island were very big, and there was also an island where there were no people but horses. All in all, these islands are unimaginable. What left me the most profound influence is "Lilliputian country". The people on this island are surprisingly small. High is only as high as one finger. On this island, Gulliver is regarded as a giant. Lilliputian is not a whole, it is divided into many pieces. Like our world, people are divided. As a result, wars are often waged there. Gulliver helped his "King" to defeat the enemy many times and was greatly praised by the king. However, one day, the princesss bedroom caught fire. The fire was very fierce. Gulliver was in a hurry and doused the fire with a bubble of urine. This made the princess very angry. The king read that he was a "meritorious minister" in Gulliver and pardoned his "crime". But the princess kept pestering him and had to put him to death. So, she came up with a vicious idea - now prick Gullivers eyes, and gradually reduce his food until he finally starved to death. Gulliver knew the news. So he took a boat all night and ran away. If Gulliver were me, I would not run away! I would punch the damnedPrincess hundreds of meters, and then throw her into the sea! Kill all those ungrateful people! Even if their "firepower" was no stronger, I would not be subdued. After letting them all pay the price, just leave! In fact, this kind of jealousy also exists in our class - Zhang Tianyis gang beating is a good example - which should be the first in the class, so we were beaten violently. This kind of jealousy should not exist. If I were, I wouldnt plead for the dead midget! Gulliver has also been to the "flying island country", which floats in the air by a large magnet. People on the island are always afraid. What are you afraid of?The earth should be destroyed for various reasons. They are afraid of collision with the earth, rupture of the ozone layer, depletion of the suns energy, expansion of the sun, and swallowing up the earth I think that even if its the end of the world, theres no way for you to avoid it. Since theres no way to avoid it, its better to live happily. Dont think about those things. Thinking about them is consuming your brain cells! And the last island he came to was only horse. The horse here was more spiritual, had its own language, and lived in peace without war. Its very different from the villain in front. This makes the author envious. Its just as good to pretend to be in our world. Unfortunately, it is impossible Gulliver, the doctor, impressed me deeply. His fantastic experience has inspired us a lot and made us understand many things we didnt understand. This book is of great value to watch.格列佛游记英文读后感 6 “Gullivers Travels,” the author of Swift was born in Dublin, Ireland, his father was a British settlement in Ireland.He is a posthumous child, dependent adult by his uncle.His masterpiece “Gullivers Travels,” published in 1726, was regarded as a childrens literary works, but it is actually attacked, the British social degradation and corruption of satirical writing.In this book, write a hero, a surgeon, Gullivers adventures, some of them breathtaking.In Lilliput, he became a monster, invulnerability, a few dozen head of cattle are

specially engaged in some baffling The study of strange countries;also deeply embarrassed the country of the Hui Yin, in the Sagittarius-turvy world, there are many incredible stories.Reading reading,

books.The book is that peoples progress, and in the world of surf is everyones dream.Open the hands of the book, go headlong into a one day will find the fun.格列佛游记英文读后感7 Don’t be a Yahoo Originally accomplished by an Englishwriter Jonathan Swift in 1726, and later on adapted for a film by Charles Sturridge and a cartoon by Peter R.Hunt, Gulliver’s Travels is such a famous satirical novel that influences both adults and children.The editionI read is one of the adaptations, published by Oxford University.I was completely absorbed in its fantastically designed plot and the deep meaning it conveys to my mind.The author, Jonathan Swift, is an English satirist, statesman and poet.He was born in a poor family in Ireland and was brought up by his uncle.When he grew up, he became a private secretary in Moore Park with other’s help.The master of the park was an experienced politician and philosopher.There’s no doubt that he gave a huge impact on Swift.During those years, Swift went through so much that after he left the park, he spared no effort to fight for freedom and independence for Irish people.The Gulliver’s Travels, wrote by the year 1726, exposing the darkness of the society at that time.The leading character—Gulliver, who travels to the imaginary lands of Lilliput, Brobdingnag, Laputa and the country of the Houyhnhnms, had experienced much during the expedition.All of these four voyages brought new opportunities and future to Gulliver’s life, and these are also for satirizing the way of the English.The first voyage is to Lilliput where people are extremely small, so Gulliver is a giant to Lilliputians.Lilliputians seem friendly but actually they are very ridiculous and stupid, the king even wanted to kill Gulliver because he made water to put out a fire to save the queen’s life.The second voyage is to Brobdingnag which is absolutely different from Lilliput.Gulliver is like a Lilliputian in Europe and he began to understand how a very small creature feels before a giant.Luckily, his master is very kind to him.But the king laughed at his country, which is famous for its beautiful places, its brave and honest people and criticized its inhuman, cruel ideas about murdering people.The third voyage is to putans are strange-looking and their main interests are music and mathematics.They pay little attention to others, so it’s very difficult to talk with them.Gulliver also went to the Glubdugdribb and Luggnagg nearby.In a visit to Glubdugdribb, Gulliver was able to call ghosts to answer his questions.In Luggnagg, he learnt something about Stuldbrugs, who are miserable for their long lives with poor heath.The last voyage is to the country of Houyhnhnms, which is controlled by horses.Gulliver felt happy with these sensible, gentle creatures, which never lied or stole, in a country which had no disease, no crime, and no wars.But at last, he had to leave.On returning to England, Gulliver felt disappointed with other humans, including his children and wife.He found himself is so stupid to think that he could bring reason and truth into their lives and thoughts.So he told others to keep away from him.As the narrator said “human are all Yahoos and Yahoos they will remain”.Yahoo, described as an ugly animal, is a reflection of human beings.Yahoos had human faces and they also so violently fond of the pieces of gold or silver that they dig for days to get them out of the ground, and hide them jealously from other yahoos.This is really an action of human.I don’t like people who are always thinking about how to attack other countries and kill tens of thousands of people who have never hurt them.They do these only with the purpose of conquering more lands.As far as I’m concerned, if we think like the horses in Houyhnhnms, don’t let lies, crimes and wars exist, our world would be more beautiful and peaceful.In a word, don’t be a Yahoo!格列佛游记英文读后感8 My Opinions on Gulliver’s Travels Jonathan Swift Recently I read a novel called “Gulliver’s Travels’.As far as I am concerned, it is a very fantastic book and it gives people an adventurous feeling to read the novel.Before I read the novel, I reallydidn’t know anything about the author of this novel.But after I have read the novel, I learned that the author of this novel is Jonathan Swift, who was born in 1667.According to what I learned from the book,I know the novel through spicy Satires and Humors, quirky imagination and exaggeration, describes the passion for Gulliver’s sailing adventure.In my opinion, there is a certain connection between the background of the novel and the social conditions.Take this novel ,for example, the background of the novel is based on the social reality in England of that time.If I have the chance, I would like to be a man like Gulliver, because I am greatly inspired by his courage.Gulliver is the person, who travels several lands.Today I will share one of his voyages with you.The voyage is to Lilliput.People of the lands of Lilliput are very small, it seems like the ant to us, and so Gulliver in the place is very big.The local people regard him as a monster.From the chapter of the novel, we can learn that people of Lilliput are of great kindness in giving Gulliver food and drink.While he was eating, they had prepared a platform to carry him to the capital city.Five hundred men built a special wooden platform with twenty－two wheels．Nine hundred of the strongest men worked for about three hours to lift him on to the platform．But he has experienced much, not only happy things but also unhappy things.As a reader of this novel, I can imagine how exciting the voyage was through the words written by the author.At last ,I hope I could have the chance to travel the world like Gulliver.I eagerly want to live in a magic land ,I think it must be exciting.In fact ,I more hope our classmates can help and understand each other like characters of the novel.And make our class more harmony ,make us more happy.Thank you!。
