《简·爱》英语书评：

Jane Eyre gives me much useful inspiration after reading it. I respect Jane Eyre’s independence and I am most impressed by the true love between jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester who was a poor blind man, twenty years older than her.

Jane Eyre never felt herself inferior as a tutor before Mr. Rochester and gained an equal status. She had lofty sentiments and was pure in mind. She had not been contaminated by common customs, so Mr.Rochester was attracted by her independent personality and falling love with her.

In the story, Jane Eyre dismissed the chaise and driver with the double remuneration, which reflected her determination to come back to Mr. Rochester. She did not know whether Mr. Rochester was really there, but she still groped about in the twilight and came to the desolate house.

She missed him that much. She only hoped that Mr Rochester let her live with him even if she found Mr Rochester blind and mutilated.

Mr rochester became extremely excited when he heard and felt his beloved Jane was still living. He suggested that Jane marry one of the other young men because he thought himself as a sightless block. But he also showed his jealousy when Jane talked about St. John’s proposing marriage. All in all, Mr. Rochester was always loving Jane deeply.

Mr. Rochester once exclaimedJane,Jane!Janeand Jane heared Rochester’s voice calling to her. Her voice replied,I am coming. Wait for me I think these are the call of love and the answer of love.

Later on, after their marriage, Mr.Rochester miraculously regained his sight and lived happily with Jane.

Personally, love can fasten the hearts of lovers tightly. Love is beyond time and space and the miracle of love can lead prayers to become reality.

简爱读完后给了我很多有用的启发。我尊重简爱的独立性，最让我印象深刻的是简爱和比她大二十岁的可怜的盲人罗切斯特先生之间的真爱。

简爱在罗切斯特先生面前，从来不觉得自己作为导师自卑，获得了平等的地位。她有高尚的情操，心地纯洁。她没有被世俗的风俗所污染，所以罗切斯特先生被她独立的个性和对她的爱所吸引。

故事中，简爱以双倍报酬解雇了贵妃和司机，体现了她重回罗切斯特先生身边的决心。她不知道罗切斯特先生是否真的在那里，但她还是在暮色中摸索着来到了那座荒凉的屋子。

她是那么的想念他。她只希望罗切斯特先生让她和他住在一起，即使她发现罗切斯特先生又瞎又残。

当罗切斯特先生听到并感觉到他心爱的简还活着时，他变得非常兴奋。他建议简嫁给另外一个年轻人，因为他认为自己是个盲人。但当简谈到圣约翰的求婚时，他也表现出嫉妒。总而言之，罗切斯特先生一直深深地爱着简。

罗切斯特先生曾大声喊叫简，简！简和简听到罗切斯特的声音在呼唤她。她的声音回答说，我来了。等我我想这些是爱的呼唤和爱的回答。

后来，他们结婚后，罗切斯特先生奇迹般地恢复了视力，和简幸福地生活在一起。

就个人而言，爱情可以将恋人的心牢牢固定。爱是超越时空的，爱的奇迹可以使祈祷成为现实。

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.

Li Lei 1、若没有一定写作功底，语法掌握不到位的话，往往会在译成英文时出现语法错误或严重的中国式句式结构（毕竟外国和中国的文化有差异，按照中国式的翻译意思会有偏差）2、比较浪费时间；3、若碰到某个句子用中文写得很流畅而英文却不知如何表达时，那就会很烦躁，进而带来不必要的紧张情绪；其实只要平时多积累一些固定搭配的短语、连词，写作时用上去，且用上一些比较灵活的句子（从句、被动句、倒装句等），多练练，写作直接用英语写是没什么问题的。
