双城记
为了你，为了你所亲爱的任何人，我愿意做任何事情。倘若我的生命中有值得牺牲的可能和机会，
我甘愿为你和你所爱的人们而牺牲。
就这样被感动了。它是一部波澜壮阔的历史，它是一个感人肺腑的故事，它更是一种纯洁而高尚的爱。它就是狄更斯笔下的《双城记》。全书充溢着扑朔迷离的色彩，作者以一连串引人入胜的故事为框架，以十八世纪法国大革命为背景。在黑暗的资本主义社会里，农民阶级和工人阶级忍受着资产阶级无情的剥削。正如作者所说：“昌盛而又衰微，笃诚而又多疑，光明而又黑暗，这是充满阳光希望的黎明，又是阴暗失望的长夜，人们拥有一切，却两手空空。”而主人公西德尼·卡尔顿、露西·曼内特和查尔斯·达尔内之间真挚的情感，成为这部名著亮丽的一笔。
在小说中，狄更斯成功地塑造了主要人物鲜明的个性。曼内特是个深爱女儿的父亲，在经历磨难后仍宽容地把女儿嫁给仇人的儿子；露西是温柔善良的贤妻良母，为了让丈夫能看自己一眼每天风雨不改地到大墙对面站立两小时；查尔斯是个正直、豁达的.贵族，与露西相爱，为了爱情甘愿放弃爵位与财产。
小说中还有一个人物，就是让人有点憎恶的泰雷兹·德伐日。失去亲人使她活着的唯一意义就是革命胜
以想象的，然而为了发泄积愤却拿侯爵兄弟的儿子及其家人抵罪，她走上了一条与那些伪贵族同样残忍的
道路，于是她的种种行为使她一步步失去了读者的谅解。最后，恶人有恶报，她戏剧性地因为手q走火而
结束了自己充满仇恨的一生。也许这才是她最佳的结局。那些像德伐日那样以复仇为生活唯一目的的人，
即使命运坎坷，也决不能博得人们的同情。
而在整篇小说中，最让我喜欢也是最令人感动的就是律师助手——西德尼·卡尔顿。他一出场就带着一身忧郁，隐去了光芒，总是灰心、失望、冷漠、凄凉。他妥协于周围环境，但有时却又显得格格不入，作为律师助手的他才华出众，却甘心情愿躲在人后，做别人成功的垫脚石，他仿佛亲手筑起了一堵墙，隔绝了名利、社会，默默地逗留在角落里。他与查尔斯长得十分相似，也同样深爱着露西，然而两者命运却截然不同。他羡慕查尔斯，也恨他。可在经历痛苦的煎熬后，他依旧带着诚挚的祝福，愿露西与查尔斯永远幸福，因为“爱比恨更为强有力得多”。这个表面上懒散、放纵的“无用之徒”，内心却是崇高而纯洁的。
终于，他向露西表达了自己的情感。每次读起那段话，难免感到心酸，“我希望你知道你是我灵魂最后的梦。我是在堕落的生活中看见你和你的父亲，还有你所经营的那个甜蜜的家，才恢复了我心中自以为早己死去的往日的梦想。我也因此才感到比任何时候都要凄凉可怜。自从我见到你以后，我才为一种原以为不会再谴责我的悔恨所苦恼。我听到我以为早已永远沉默的往日的声音在悄悄地催我上进…………”
当查尔斯因为家族的犯罪而被无辜判决死刑，西德尼竟然代替他去断头台接受行刑。在生命与爱之间，他选择了后者。他爱露西，为了她的幸福，他为她的爱人献出自己的生命。当他走上断头台的时候，面上依然保持着笑容，他信守对露西的诺言……因为，他的爱便是他的生命。此时此刻，我的脑海中想起了裴多菲的那首诗：“我愿意是急流/山里的小河/在崎岖的路上/岩石上经过/只要我的爱人是一条小鱼/在我的浪花中快乐地游来游去……”
尽管小说以一个意外的“大团圆”收场，但当读者流着眼泪读完该书时，却感到无限的遗憾、心酸。有人说爱情是自私的，但在狄更斯的《双城记》中，我却能深深地感受到一种超脱世俗的最纯洁、最崇高的爱。它隐藏在内心深处，但却无比的深厚；它默默地承受煎熬，为的只是使心爱的人幸福；它总是无私地付出，而不求一点儿的回报。这种爱在无形中上升到一个新境界，永恒地放着凄美而迷人的光彩。
“为了你，为了你所亲爱的任何人，我愿意做任何事情。倘若我的生命中有值得牺牲的可能和机会，我甘愿为你和你所爱的人们而牺牲。”
导语：《双城记》是英国作家查尔斯·狄更斯所著的一部以法国大革命为背景所写成的长篇历史小说。以下是双城记英文版经典段落，欢迎各位的阅读。

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief,it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way- in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
那是最美好的时代，那是最糟糕的时代；那是智慧的年头，那是愚昧的年头；那是信仰的时期，那是怀疑的时期；那是光明的季节，那是黑暗的季节；那是希望的春天，那是失望的冬天；我们全都在直奔天堂，我们全都在直奔相反的方向--简而言之，那时跟现在非常相象，某些最喧嚣的权威坚持要用形容词的最高级来形容它。说它好，是最高级的；说它不好，也是最高级的。
双城记精彩段落双语赏析2
There were a king with a large jaw and a queen with a plain face, onthe throne of England; there were a king with a large jaw and aqueen with a fair face, on the throne of France. In both countriesit was clearer than crystal to the lords of the State preserves ofloaves and fishes, that things in general were settled for ever.
英格兰宝座上有一个大下巴的国王和一个面貌平庸的王后；法兰西宝座上有一个大下巴的国王和一个面貌姣好的王后。对两国支配着国家全部财富的老爷来说，国家大局足以万岁千秋乃是比水晶还清楚的事。
附：《双城记》文艺评论
《双城记》呈现的世界，是一个善恶交织、爱恨并置，智慧和愚蠢共存，光明和黑暗搏斗的世界。小说暗示，如果前者战胜后者，人类就能迎来希望的春天，就可能奔向天堂，亦即理想社会，也就是小说结尾处英国青年卡尔登的愿景：社会公平、法律公正、人性美好，人们的生活平静而幸福等等。为爱情和友情做出自我牺牲的卡尔登，以及为伸张正义而身陷囹圄的梅尼特医生，正代表了人类的希望。
如果人们像小说中描写的一些人那样以恶抗恶，以残忍对抗残忍，以愚蠢对付愚蠢，那就只能造成恶性循环，使人类在绝望的冬天里徘徊，并最终走向毁灭。“《双城记》警告人们：“只要种下的仍然是掠夺与压迫的种子，那么结出的必然是同类的果实。”（第15章）
很多评论者都提到，狄更斯写《双城记》，是想对当时的英国提出警告。他认为，那时的'英国和大革命前的法国一样，贫富差别巨大，社会极不公正，危机四伏。评论者特别指出，狄更斯警告的不是底层的农民或平民，而是社会精英。不识字的农民和贫困的平民，都不在他小说的读者群之内。他警告的主要是贵族特权阶层的人，社会上有权有势的人，以及文化精英。
《双城记》有什么现世意义呢？tutorabc认为一是不要以暴制暴，尽管社会发展过程中会有一些不和谐的声音，但我们要始终保持自己的初心；二是精英人群要警惕自身道德修养，特别是一些有钱有权的精英要注意自身修养不要过于浮躁。《双城记》内涵丰富，值得一看。

双城记(A tale of two cities)英文读后感2
Crazily, but truthfully, I finished reading the most part of the novel "A Tale of Two Cities" in just one day. Lost in the story, I felt like being together with the characters and experiencing the same exciting events. Soon it came to an end. To tell you my feelings, its infinite sadness and a strong emotion that can drive me to cry.
The story is set in London and Paris at the time of the great French Revolution. It shows the causes of revolution and its effects on peoples day-to-day lives. Before the revolution, the King and the aristocracy treated their people cruelly in France. The common people were extremely poor and miserable. The crops in the fields were poor as if even the land shared the misery of the people. And there were so heavy taxes that all the villagers had nothing to hand over at last. On the other hand, the aristocracy made their will as the law by using money and gold. There were no justice, no equality and no fairness. Just as what happened to Dr Manette,he wrote to the Minister to show the crime what Marquis Evremonde had done, resulting in himself being arrested and sent to the prison Bastille without any reason.
Then this situation of darkness was needed to be changed. As people such as the Defarges prepared and arranged, at length the Revolution came to break out. When the Bastille was captured and the King was tried and put to death as well as many other aristocrats, things didnt go on as what they had been expected. The situation stayed the same, or even worse. The prisoners from the Bastille were set free while more prisons were filled with people who had done no wrong again. People who once lived on the bottom of class took the charge now and their heart had been full of evil. The only thing they wanted to do was to revenge. And these so-called "patriots" would like to see more and more innocent prisoners going to the guillotine and thats their joy. As the novel wrote,” In everything they did were merciless, for they had been hardened in the fires of suffering and the touch of pity could make no mark on them".
Equality and fairness is what people seek,which led to the French Revolution.As a consequence,neither equality nor fairness was got after the revolution.And thats the tragedy of the history.I was heavyhearted when reading what Sydney Carton said before death and I burst into tears finally.

双城记(A tale of two cities)英文读后感4
My Opinions About A Tale of Two Cities
A Tale of Two Cities was written by Charles Dickens, who was born in Portsmouth, England in 1812. As the second of eight children, Dickens had to go to work at the age of twelve to support his poor family, and he lived a difficult childhood. This troublesome time scarred him deeply and provided him with substantial material for such stories as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations. Though just accepted only little education, Dickens became a famous writer through his struggling self-learning and extremely hard work, and he was the representative writer of realism in the 19th century.
Charles Dickens lived in the period of transition between feudalism and capitalism, when the industrial revolution originated in England swept through Europe. As large numbers of workers invaded into urban centers to earn a living, the bourgeois took advantages of the surplus of labor by keeping wages low. The poor thus remained poor, and often lived in a narrow and filthy environment. Dickens’ writing depicted various directions about this society, and provided a keen, sympathetic chronicle of the plight of the urban poor.
A Tale of Two Cities mainly about the great atrocities of French aristocrats compelled the poor citizens to resist violently. Doctor Manette spent eighteen years as a prisoner in Bastille because he intended to expose the atrocity after learning that
Marquis Evrémonde killed a beautiful farmwife and her younger brother because of his brother’s lust. After Doctor Manette was free again, his daughter Lucie got married with Charles Darnay, Marquis Evrémonde’s nephew, but chose to live in England because he could not accept the cruel injustices of the French social system and the snobbish and cruel values of his uncle. However, Marquis Evrémonde continued his atrocities. After his crazy carriage crushed over a farmer’s little baby as if nothing happen, he was killed at night. A revolutionary storm was brewing. Mr. and Mrs.Defarge were the revolutionaries in the poor Saint Antoine section of Paris. They wanted to kill all French aristocrats, including Charles Darnay. Mr.Defarge used to be Doctor Manette’s servant, so he was kind to Manettes, while his wife’s heart burned with longing for revenge. At last, Charles Darnay was judged to death, But Sydney Carton, a lawyer who loved Lucie deeply, willing to die instead of Darnay, as they had similar appearance.
From my personal point of view, the person A Tale of Two Cities described astounded me very much. Some of them were cruel, crazy and reasonless, while some of them were kind, moral and had own mind.
Sydney Carton was the person I thought the most. He was a smart attorney, without his help, Mr. Stryver could not solve any cases. But he was lazy, alcoholic, and cared nothing and nobody, he even could not find any interests in his own life, it seems that he lived just for wasting life. But he loved Lucie deeply. Finally, he
became a hero, because he sacrificed his life to save Darnay. I didn’t know why the author spent so many words to form such a strange guy at frist, he used his life to love Lucie, after all. But now, I caught it. Perhaps the terrible Carton symbolized the terrible old France, and his change in the end shown that everything could change, including the old France, a new and fine society would replace the violence.
Then, Charles Darnay. He was worthy of esteem or respect. He displayed great virtue in his rejection of his uncle, Marquis Evrémonde. Money and power meant nothing to him, if they came from exploitation and oppression. Even though he had to inherit his uncle’s bequest, he left them to the poor and lived in London throught his own effort. When he realized that he must go back to Paris to help Gabelle, one of his servants, and make right the wrong his uncle had done, he acted without hesitation because he knew that was his duty. He even refused Carton’s help after he was judged to death. I thought, Charles Darnay was a shiny diamond in that cruel and violent society, and he was a hope, the hope of equality and peace.
Third, Mrs.Defarge. How crazy this woman was. Nobody could stop her steps toward revenge, except the death. Although it said that wherever there is oppression, there is resistance, I didn’t agree with Mrs.Defarge totally. Her resistance was inhumane, insensible and endless. For just as the aristocracy’s oppression had made an oppressor Mrs.Defarge herself, so will her oppression, in turn, make oppressors her victims. In the end of the novel, her death by a bullet from her own gun. It shown the
author’s belief that inordinate retaliated lust would destroy one own self.
On the whole, A Tale of Two Cities is a successful novel. It shows us oppression and resistance, violence and terror, revolution and vengeance, love and friendship.
I am lucky enough to live in the 21st century, when peace and development are pursued all along. Nowadays, there also are many problems and dissensions among this world, but violence does not the best way problems are solved. Violence just creates more problems, something every sensible person knows. What we need are talks and communication. The time A Tale of Two Cities mentions has gone, we should do enough preparation to adapt the coming age.
双城记(A tale of two cities)英文读后感5
This holiday, I used my spare time to read dickenss "a tale of two cities", also have some understanding, I will write down my feelings.
1. Plot arrangement.
The plot of this book is very mysterious, and the author concatenates all kinds of clues, as mentioned in the article, "weaving" becomes the novel. The greatest feature of the novel is the complexity of the characters, such as the relationship between Dr Manette and danan; The relationship between Mrs D urberge and dannan - the two relations directly led to the final tragedy. And the relationship between Mr. Lorry and Mr. DE hair, and the relationship between the pass and the spy, and so on. These complex figures link the work of this book.
One of the most distinctive chapters of the book is a conversation with a little girl before his death, which thoroughly reveals that the revolutionary masses are too crazy and that the good will live on for ever.
2. Characters.
The most important character in the book is Charles daran (evmond). He was a very conflicted man, and he hated his father and uncle very much, but he had to support the whole family business. So when the old servant wrote to him, he had to return to France. He was a kind man, possessed of the civility of a nobleman, and when he met his uncle, he made it clear that he could not persecute the people. At the same time, he gave up the privileges of the nobility, which was a good deed.
Sydney Carton was also an important figure. I have never liked this casual, lazy character in the first half of the novel. But in the process of reading later, I found him to be an aggressive and resourceful person. Although it is "friend", but actually caton and south relationship is not so good, but for the sake of the family happiness drops of life, caton willing to the guillotine, let fled south, and the embodiment of the eternal good. In the article, carton died "like a prophet".
Mr And Mrs D arge also belong to the books focus. He was a good man, and he took Dr Manette, and told his wife after the revolution that he would accept it. She was an avenger, and she had been persecuted by the evremonde brothers, so she wanted to kill all the French aristocrats. Of course, because of her violent behaviour, she died in the hands of miss pross.
3. Writing features.
This novel is very humorous, and the author has been using dialectical relations and repeated techniques to achieve this effect. Therefore, this touching novel can still be read with great laughter.
One of the features of the article is that the last author "helps carton express his feelings". The author used catons language to show the end of the article, telling people that "kindness is forever in the world".
Thats how I read the novel.
双城记(A tale of two cities)英文读后感6
A tale of two cities in this paper, the human nature thought what I touch, such as Charles Dickens wrote, he to his "sacred goal" and give up the position and property, and this in "resurrection" Xia He leave Christopher, as high; In order to save him into knowing unusually dangerous prison, he was the "stack" tiger, to "the lofty spirit is worth learning, not afraid of hard, dont give the evil forces, for the sake of the truth, regardless of life to save people, and I really admire him.
In the ordinary in the novel, I saw a lot of different people, honest good matei, doctors, Lucy beautiful generous, elegant noble, loyal Charles lowry, distorts the life of Germanys wife, appearance indifference, inner passion Sidney, gracious miss PuLuoShi, cruel and wicked Mr Howe brothers.
In this book the author distorts the history, uglifies the feudal aristocracy, the fact is not completely. Many scenarios, such as the horse knight doctors have imprisoned blank warrant, are risking their lives to save Charles still, a doctor, the leader of the people of Britain for fear of the other countries, said: "the French nobility oppress people". In order to buy off chert, with high status and wealth, he did not lose his money, and he improved the story of the tireless efforts of the oppressed.
The main expression is love and kindness, reflecting good and evil boobs, love and hate, and finally the author says, "love always conquers hate". Evil is always a flash in the pan, and all must die with the evil one, and the good is everlasting.
It reveals the social aspect of England comprehensively; The darkness of parliamentary politics, the doting of the ruling institutions, the evils of the money society, the poverty of the masses.
With a story to deal with their contemporaries called for the authorities and the public, tyranny would cause violence, crisis near in the day, the rich should have merciful, bleeding can cause more more blood flow.

The report of the A Tale of Two Cities
Recently, I read a tale of two cities. I think that it’s a good novel.
First, I want to introduce the author of this book .His name is Charles Dickens, he is an outstanding writer. He is one of the greatest writers in the 19 century. However, he had a painful childhood. He was arrested when he was 10 years old due to household debt. He had only a few years of learning. So, in his early years, his works are more about the painful children. He criticized the black of capitalism and had the sympathy for the poor. Now, let me introduce this novel. The background of this book is the French revolution. Before the revolution, the young doctor .Manette witnessed the guilty of the French marquis. So he was arrested in the Bastille by the marquis. After two years, his wife died. His daughter Lucie was send to London by his friends Lorry and adopted by the Miss Pross who is a maidservant. After 18 years, he was released from the Bastille and was taken care by his old servant Defarge. His daughter wanted to take his father to London.

双城记(A tale of two cities)英文读后感8
"This is the best of times and the worst of times." The first sentence of a tale of two cities is quoted numerous times. But I guess the man who knows this sentence and the novel "tale of two cities" tells a story, and does not know why. If you want to understand the original meaning of this sentence, and why you write this classic sentence, it is natural to read the original.
"In short, that era is so similar to todays." This sentence actually explains the two questions of the above classic sentence: why do you say that, and to whom? This is one of the reasons why the novel was born, dickens hope that through such a novel, by describing the French revolution brought disaster to the people to express their own worry, warn the dangerous situation at the same time. A revolutionary history, two cities representing two countries, a few wind and rain people, constitute the main elements of the novel.
Although the tale of a tale of two cities is a classic novel, it is considered to be the authors view of history because it explicitly states that the revolutionary background is the French revolution. And that is the focus of countless controversies over the novel. In the novel, dickens showed the cruelty of the aristocracy, but also showed the irrational destruction of the revolutionary masses. The revolution, he argued, was a kind of oppression that replaced another kind of oppression, and a bloodbath that was a direct and heavy one instead of another. A series of depictions of the storming of the bastille and of the mob - bloody, brutal, cunning, malevolent - is the most striking aspect of the novel.
Dickens has devoted a great deal of ink to the evil of the mob, showing his abhorrence of the mob and, in a certain degree, the hatred of the revolution. Of course, as a humanist, dickens also points out the cure for the world: love. This kind of love, embodied in the novel includes family love, love, friendship and such private feelings, also includes the abandonment of the aristocracy, the salvation of the kind of fraternity. Among them, the most brilliant is the description of cartons love.
I like carton very much. In fact, carton was the embodiment of dickens, and dickens was the first to think of the man and the spirit of his body to conceive the novel. So, what was carton like? The novel describes: "the sun is sad and mournful, and the rising of sorrow, the sight unseen, is nothing worse than this man. He is talented and emotional, but he has no opportunity to show his talent. He cant do anything, and he cant make his own happiness. He knew his problem, but he resigned himself to his fate, and he wasted all his time, year after year.
It is a young man who has lost his talent and youth. The novel does not appear to have been explained, since he has appeared in the first place, and has not written much about his family background. Personally, this man represents dickens himself, so he does not need to describe too much - the fall of carton comes from his frustration with the deteriorating society. He went up to the guillotine and said, "I see the evil of this age, and the evil of the former times, which has caused this evil, and I have gradually died for my SINS."
Pessimists - caton, was rejected by his friends meet with difficulties, in the love of a womans husband is about to be guillotined in when he suddenly appeared, be dont save the situation, do price with his own life, in the Nick of time to make a replace plan to rescue his beloved womans husband.
It is not the love of Christ, who has redeemed his sin and died. In fact, in the novel, carton did indeed say, in the biblical tone, "the resurrection is in me, the life is in me, and the man who believes in me, though dead, will rise again. And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. This is the medicine that dickens prescribed for "the worst of times", but it is, after all, an ideal. It is said that the tale of a tale of two cities is an immortal work without Sidney. The existence and behavior of carton, the novel loses its value and brilliance.

"A tale of two cities" is hailed as the most outstanding representative of the French revolution, and I think the biggest reason may be because it is different. Unlike other works, such as Carlisles "the French revolution", dickens was more concerned with the joys and sorrows of the people at the bottom. In those days, though, the little figures themselves did not draw the worlds attention. But the authors keen capture of these little figures and the great revolution is inextricably linked, and arguably the French revolution itself was inspired by the power of the little people.
The French revolution was a mark of blood in human history. In that chaotic era, full of uncertainty; In such a state of disorder, all human nature is revealed. A tale of two cities by the French revolution as the background, through to race hatred between civilians and conflict, the author want to convey the dickens -- - unable to wash away hatred, blood cannot replace love -- - more aristocratic tyranny to civilians caused pain will not heal, because blood civilians to hatred cannot replace love for lost relatives. In the story, Dr Menet was freed from prison to live with his daughter in London.
Five years later, they testified in court for the French youth, Charles Darnay, who married darnay in love. In 1792, the French revolution broke out and the scene moved to France. Darnay, who had been arrested and sentenced to death for being a descendant of the aristocracy, had been in love with Lucys English youth, Sidney, at the critical moment. Carton took the guillotine for him. Carden is one of the most attractive and complex characters in the book. Decadent, negative, at school, he only writes homework for classmates; After society, even with all the talent, it still chose to work for another lawyer. But beneath his cold exterior, there was a deep tenderness.
With this a welcome tenderness and love for Lucy, cardan made a significant decision - - instead of the guillotine dyer that -- - with his own life in exchange for another persons life, in return for a familys happiness and smile. It was the act of carden guarding Lucy, sacrificing for love, how noble it was in that great age, even in modern times! Compared with the tenderness and love of the representative, Mrs. Dofstone was a symbol of bloodshed and bloodshed. The death of a loved one in the hands of darnays father and uncle, she lived for a lifetime of hatred; For the death of darnays family, he had no need of it, and at last he was killed by a fire. The bloodlust of Mrs. Dauphin was a terrible shock, but it also made people sigh the power of hate, and make the woman who should be happy and happy to be the Nemesis. At the end of the eighteenth century, France was burned into asurra hell by this perverse and vengeful flame. Lessons and meanings cannot be forgotten by the years. If we cant get something out of it, the same tragedy will happen again. Two hundred years later, we hope that we can create a new century of true equality, freedom and fraternity in this generation.
