《格列佛游记》英语读后感 1
One 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 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》英语读后感 3
During the summer vacation, I read Gullivers Travels. In the novel, Gulliver, who loves sailing and adventure, travels around the world, and has experienced great and small adventure and interesting adventure with acrid irony and humor, strange imagination and exaggeration.
I was deeply attracted by the strange stories of the country of adults and the country of Lilliputians in my travel notes. However, in 1710, Gulliver sailed in North America, met the country of Huiyin on a desert island by chance, and met the king of Huiyin with kindness and honesty.
There are no such words as "lying" and "cheating" in the language of Huiyin State, and people do not understand their meaning. They do not understand what is "doubt" and what is "distrust". In their country, everything is real and transparent.
I envy Gulliver for being lucky to go to Huiyin, where we are pursuing and yearning for an ideal place. You dont need to worry about the truth of others words here. In the real society, some people use rhetoric to cheat others hard-earned money; Some people even abandon their biological parents for money
I also hope that one day our society will be like Huiyin, where children will no longer have doubts in their eyes, and education and reality will be unified. I am willing to work hard for this, and I hope that everyone can start from me and around me, so that this society can be more sincere and less hypocritical.
《格列佛游记》英语读后感 4
Recently, I read a book called Gullivers Travels, which is really eye opening. Do you want to know how wonderful it is?
Gulliver, the hero of the novel, earns money on the ship as a doctor. He does not care about every detail and always cares about others. He is modest and eager to learn, and always works hard to learn languages that he cannot.
He hoped very much that he could learn from the kindness and kindness of Houyhnhnms. He likes this kind of horse very much, even more than his children. Because he felt at ease with the horse.
Once, when he left Gele Dazhui and went to Lagenag to meet the king, the soldiers outside the palace made a request to Gulliver that surprised him. Because to see the king, Gulliver had to crawl on the palace steps and lick the floor with his tongue. After some inner struggle, Gulliver did. In that country, Gulliver was not the only one who suffered such treatment, so were the princes and ministers.
After reading this story, I was thinking, will there be dust in his mouth? How can I talk to the king? Do you want to brush your teeth first? I remember that in the TV, when ministers visited the king, they walked in. I never saw such a thing. This is really an eye opener! There are many strange and interesting stories in this book, which are worth reading.

After reading this book After Gullivers Travels, the most famous satirical novel, it was known that the authors detailed descr iption of various strange experiences in Lilliputian, Giant and other places was due to the complicated social conditions in Britain at that time. So the author used his rich imagination to conceive wonderful and dreamy pictures, satirizing the darkness of British society at that time, which was humorous and convincing. Gulliver, the hero, receives different treatment every time he goes to a country, and he has witnessed various strange phenomena. Each scene is described in detail, with rich imagination and strange conception. It is interesting and fascinating to read.
Gulliver has successively traveled to Lilliput, Giant and Houyhnhnms. In Lilliput, he can play with kings and civilians; In the giant country, he can only be controlled by others like a child everywhere; But what impressed me most was the last country Gulliver went to, the Houyhnhnms, where Ma became a symbol of wisdom.
He met Houyhnms with kindness, honesty and friendship. There was no "lying", no "doubt", and no "cheating". In their country, everything was real and transparent. Gulliver had a good time in Houyhnhnms.
Here, Gulliver and his Houyhnhnma horse owner started a long conversation and discussion, which also made his owner understand why people cheat and cheat, and why we face moral degradation and spiritual collapse. This is also the key to this book. Through Gullivers experience, the author just wants to find a prescr iption to cure the human soul.
After listening to my introduction, do you already like this book? Lets go into the strange world!
《格列佛游记》英语读后感 6
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.

I like the chapter of Lilliput best. Gulliver is in the Lilliputian Kingdom, just like a mountain. He can trample several Lilliputians to death if he is not careful.
A meal needs hundreds of people to cook. He can also let Lilliputians dance on his palm! When Lilliputian meets foreign enemies, the king asks Gulliver for help. Gulliver happily agrees. Lilliputian wins the war with the advantage of Gulliver, who is tall and strong.
However, Gulliver disagreed with the kings request to occupy the failed country. From the book, I found that Gullivers Travels not only wrote strange fairy tales, but also satirized.

寒假期间我读了《格列佛游记》这本书,仔细阅读着其中有趣、惊险的故事,仿佛真的把我带入格列佛所游历的世界。
书中的主人公格列佛是个爱好出游的人,他渴望着周游世界,走遍世界的每个角落。也许正是他那无畏的探索精神,才让我们也领略到了这奇特的四个国家吧。
令我印象最深的是“小人国和大人国”了。利立浦特的居民们虽然都是一般人手掌那么大的人,但他们却十分的勤奋和聪明。格列佛为这个国家出了不少力,最后却遭到了朝廷中人的弹劾,被迫离开这个国家。这从某个角度体现了当时英国政府的昏暗等等。在大人国,格列佛又从小矮人的角度仰视人类,讽刺了某些人类的.一些不好的习性。
在慧嘶马国中,格列佛结识了具有仁慈、诚实和友谊美德的慧嘶马。在慧嘶国的语言中没有“撒谎”和“欺骗”这样的字眼,他们不懂什么叫“怀疑”、什么是“不信任”,在他们的国度里一切都是真实的、透明的,是人们所追求和向往的地方。在这里,你不需要考虑别人说话的真假,因为他们不知道说谎是什么。我也好向往去那种地方呀!我希望我们的社会能在我们一代代的努力下,成为像慧因国那样的社会!
这部小说真实地描绘出了一幅格列佛出游的图画,同时让我看到了社会上美好的一面与黑暗的一面。
《格列佛游记》英语读后感 9
Gullivers Travels can be said to be the novel I have read the most times, because I have been reading this book since primary school. Its not like a novel, because it doesnt make me read a novel. Of course, how I look at it depends on how I feel at different ages.
When I was in primary school, I didnt know much about novels. Generally speaking, I read fairy tales or fables. Therefore, when I saw Gullivers Travels, I thought it was an interesting adventure fairy tale, so I bought it. However, because of this, I saw something interesting in it.
I looked at it like other stories. When I saw rope skipping on the rope, I thought it was a special game. When I saw it, it was interesting to see that Lilliputians used this to choose their official positions. When I finished reading Gulliver, I told my classmates Gullivers story in school and recommended the book to others.
Many people went to buy Gullivers Travels, which even the teacher thought was incredible. Later, the teacher understood what I had told them, and didnt say anything but smiled.
When I was in primary school, Gullivers Travels was a required reading, so I was glad I had read it. But later, through the teachers introduction to us, I understood what I had not seen - it was a satire. But I still dont understand half of it. Why does an interesting fairy tale become a satire, A novel satirizing human society? Although I still understand something through the introduction, I still cant accept this form of symbol.
Later, when I came to junior high school, I gradually understood the meaning of Gullivers Travels and many things that I had never known before. When I read Gullivers Travels again, I read it with a feeling of exclusion, because I understand that the content is an image of ugly things, a satire on things, so I dont want to think about it.
But I didnt think that when I knew I would read this book, how would I look at it? Why dont I look at this book that I have seen enough before with such eyes now? Because of growth, growth may bring us maturity and stability, but it also takes away innocence and carefree. This may be the change of human nature, and no one can escape.
Gullivers Travels gave me a view at different times, perhaps witnessing my growth and transformation day by day. We all have different views on things, but perhaps sometimes we have to think about it. If it is a different time, will we still look at things with the same eyes?
Perhaps what we should learn from this book is not satire, but to understand the passage of the world.
《格列佛游记》英语读后感 10
My favorite book is adventure novels. These days, I finally got my wish and read Gullivers Travels, which has benefited me a lot.
This book is about the surgeon Gullivers love of adventure. Once when he went to sea, he entered the "Villain Country" by mistake, was warmly treated, but was almost framed. It was not easy to escape, but fell into the "Giant Country" again, and was forced to perform everywhere.
Fortunately, we met a kind king, so that we could be peaceful. Unexpectedly, Pingdi was brought to a flying island by an eagle. When I finally got home, I was thrown into the "Huiyin Country" by my companions because I went to sea again. Horses are the most rational animals here. After many hardships and joys, he finally returned to his motherland and the so-called "civilized country" of mankind.
Gullivers Travels brings me into a vivid and magical world with wonderful imagination. I seem to have experienced the disputes in Lilliput with Gulliver; Countless funny stories encountered together in the Giant Kingdom as a rare thing; Feel the incomprehensible strange people and science together on the island; I fell in love with the peaceful and serene country of Huiyin... After reading this book, I seem to have made a journey around the world, which is thrilling, hilarious, exhausted, serious and dignified... Its really fascinating.
What attracted me most about this book was that the author used humor to bring satire to the extreme. The book is full of the world in the authors imagination, but it vividly reflects the drawbacks of the real society.
Isnt that what happens in the Lilliputian and Giant countries? People are desperate for money and power, so there will be hatred, envy, frame up, war and other undesirable phenomena. Lets also look at the country of Huiyin. Instead of letting human beings full of desire be the rulers, we let the unrestrained, benevolent, kind and rational horses be the rulers, preaching all kinds of virtues to us.
《格列佛游记》英语读后感 11
Gullivers Travels is one of the most interesting books I have ever seen. The reason why I like this book is that it makes me feel isolated from the world when I read it, and also makes me experience unprecedented interest and unimaginable stimulation.
When reading, you can not only accumulate vocabulary, but also relax your mood and relieve pressure. It can be said that it is a perfect book.
The author of this book is from England. This book is a long satirical novel in travel style, which was first published in 1726. This book takes Rimmel Gulliver as the main character to narrate the experience of arriving at Lilliput, Lord, Flying Island and Houyhnhnms in the first person. Each island has its own different customs and languages.
Gulliver, the hero with strong language talent and survival talent, arrived in some incredible countries due to some special accidents. In these countries, Gulliver learned the languages, customs and habits of different countries by his instinct for survival.
Each country will let Gulliver fall into despair again and again, but he survived miraculously. This adventure not only tempered Gullivers spirit, but also made him realize the vastness of the world.
After reading this book, I also felt the difficulty of living and the happiness of my present space, which benefited me for life!
《格列佛游记》英语读后感 12
British writer Jonathan; Swifts Gullivers travels, the novel describes the adventures of Gulliver with a keen irony and humor, fantastic imagination and exaggeration, and travels around the world four times, experiencing great and small adventure. The first voyage with lefou road in distress, escape, drift left to Lilliput, is bound to the king. However, the gentle performance of Gulliver gradually won the favor of the king and the people, and he gradually became familiar with the customs of the small country. Later in Gullivers help to defeat the same is Lilliput "but Fugu Si" Gulliver to exterminate Blefuscu Empire, the emperor was not happy. At this time, the empress palace fire in Gullivers wisdom, pee put out the fire, who knows but let the queen was very angry.
So, to get rid of Lilliput and gulliver. Gulliver heard the wind, quickly fled to the Empire of Blefuscu, later returned safely to england. The second time, Gulliver went to the adult state, before in the small country, Gulliver is a monster, but now, he is not even an ant in adults! Because he is a special type in the adult state, and was received as a small thing in the suitcase, brought to the town show exhibition. Later, after three years, Gulliver to accompany the king tour frontier. Because of Gullivers homesick, and pretended to be sick, came to the seaside and breathe the fresh air. But the eagle in the sky took him live in the box for a turtle hung up.
The next few eagle in the air battle, the box fell into the sea, a ship was passing found Gulliver, after being rescued, he sailed back to England. But the heart of Gullivers travel around the world is not destroyed, in the third Gulliver went to the flying island, visited in Laputa and Glubbdubdrib, who looks abnormal, strange clothing, all be in a brown study. In the Academy of science, designers are engaged in the study of some subject result be a wild legend, the land desolate, the collapse of the housing, the people had no food, no clothes. In the people on the island, he is good at master magic, necromancy, they learned, found the historical truth is powerful in the world to deceive. Gref also visited La NEGELE Kingdom, see a man of immortality "sitelubu". After leaving the country, Gulliver came to Japan, and then went back to england.
He ironically tells British characteristics at that time: "greed, the party struggles, hypocrisy, no letters, cruelty, anger, resentment, jealousy, lust, crazy, sinister and ambitions." He sarcastically described the bizarre phenomenon of human animal upside down: Ma became rational carrier, while the others into a dirty, smelly urine dashing, greedy for inferior animal yehuda. He talks about human nature, is willing to be enslaved by money, not extravagant waste, that is, greed. The author not only satirize the British society at that time, but I think it is more important to decide the whole human society. Alemayehu represents human beings, while the hero is so disgusted with Alemayehu. All the lines of the book reveal the authors dissatisfaction with the society.
On the other hand, the heros life in the Hui country and Hui Yuan is the most unforgettable. Their country does not have words of evil, like deceit, doubt, cunning, and so on. So their society will not be deceived, suspected, cunning, framed, conspiracy, bribery...... That world is a place full of happiness and happiness. So that when the hero left there, he shed sad tears.
After reading Gullivers travels, we can not help but examine ourselves. Do we have the shadow of these stubborn roots?.
Although our society does not decline as the United Kingdom at that time, but where to go or not. Petty theft, littering, vandalism. Its all around us. Murder, drug smuggling, brutal crazy. Its not surprising that we often see things on tv.
Such a turbid society is something we need to clarify. Now we cant do anything spectacular, but we can do what we can do. Even lower your head, pick up a piece of garbage, write an environmental article, call friends relatives...... This is something we can easily do.
