追风筝的人英文读后感 篇1
Its a moving story and a mixture of love,fear,guilty,atonement and so on.For a lont time,it makes the books we read lost their color.
The first time I read a book written by an Afghan atuhor named Khaled Hosseini ,it told a story between two boys.A rich boy Amir at the age of 12 and his servant Hasan were brotherly loved.Nevertheless,afer a kite game,something miserable happened.Amir feel grievous and guilty for his cowardice and he cannot confront Hansan,using something contempitable to let Hansan and his father leave his home.Not long,Afghanistan broke ou a war,Amir and his father had to fled to America.After his grown- up,he cannot forgave what he had done to Hansan before.And to atone for himself,he returned his hometown,which was destoryed badly by the war……
Maybe all of us more or less had done something as Amir did before,we are too young to understand others feelings when we broke their heart into pieces.We may feel guilty and miserable for waht we have done.But there is no use to cry over spilt milk.What we really should do is to face the reality and like Amir,to atone for ourselves.
追风筝的人英文读后感 篇2
This is a wonderful, beautiful epic of a novel. Set in Afghanistan and the United States between the 1970s to the present day, it is a heartbreaking tale of a young boy, Amir, and his best friend who are torn apart. This is a classic word-of-mouth novel and is sure to become as universally loved as The God of Small Things and The Glass Palace.
Twelve year old Amir is desperate to win the approval of his father Baba, one of the richest and most respected merchants in Kabul. He has failed to do so through academia or brawn, but the one area where they connect is the annual kite fighting tournament. Amir is determined not just to win the competition but to run the last kite and bring it home triumphantly, to prove to his father that he has the makings of a man. His loyal friend Hassan is the best kite runner that Amir has ever seen, and he promises to help him - for Hassan always helps Amir out of trouble. But Hassan is a Shia Muslim and this is 1970s Afghanistan. Hassan is taunted and jeered at by Amirs school friends; he is merely a servant living in a shack at the back of Amirs house. So why does Amir feel such envy towards his friend? Then, what happens to Hassan on the afternoon of the tournament is to shatter all their lives, and define their futures.
The Kite Runner of Khaled Hosseinis deeply moving fiction debut is an illiterate Afghan boy with an uncanny instinct for predicting exactly where a downed kite will land. Growing up in the city of Kabul in the early 1970s, Hassan was narrator Amirs closest friend even though the loyal 11-year-old with "a face like a Chinese doll" was the son of Amirs fathers servant and a member of Afghanistans despised Hazara minority. But in 1975, on the day of Kabuls annual kite-fighting tournament, something unspeakable happened between the two boys.
Narrated by Amir, a 40-year-old novelist living in California, The Kite Runner tells the gripping story of a boyhood friendship destroyed by jealousy, fear, and the kind of ruthless evil that transcends mere politics. Running parallel to this personal narrative of loss and redemption is the story of modern Afghanistan and of Amirs equally guilt-ridden relationship with the war-torn city of his birth. The first Afghan novel to be written in English, The Kite Runner begins in the final days of King Zahir Shahs 40-year reign and traces the countrys fall from a secluded oasis to a tank-strewn battlefield controlled by the Russians and then the trigger-happy Taliban. When Amir returns to Kabul to rescue Hassans orphaned child, the personal and the political get tangled together in a plot that is as suspenseful as it is taut with feeling.
The son of an Afghan diplomat whose family received political asylum in the United States in 1980, Hosseini combines the unflinching realism of a war correspondent with the satisfying emotional pull of master storytellers such as Rohinton Mistry. Like the kite that is its central image, the story line of this mesmerizing first novel occasionally dips and seems almost to dive to the ground. But Hosseini ultimately keeps everything airborne until his heartrending conclusion in an American picnic park.
追风筝的人英文读后感 篇3
I have seen the novels name --the Kite Runner many times from the Internet,when it comes to "the novels moved you most".With curiosity,I downloaded it.When reading the novel,from the beginning to the end,I felt a heavy stone of sorrow on my heart.
It is a story about friendship,about fault and atonement,about the good and evil of human natual.
The narrator of the story,Amir ,is born in a rich family.Hassan is his servant as well as close friend.They both lose mother from birth and grow up like brothers.
From Hassan ,I see the most kind and beautiful soul.He never means to hurt anyone.he protects Amir bravely and has a broad mind to endure what Amir do to him.With the promise to run the kite,he hands the last cut kite to Amir though he has insulted by the bully,Assef. for lifetime,he cherishes the friendship,even he dies of protecting Amirs house."For you,a thousand times over"he does as he says…
If Hassan can be described as an angel, then Amir is just a person.when he is a boy,he is badly want fathers love and care.he will be jealous,he will fear and be cowardly.When he sees Hassan insulted by Assef,he is so scared that he only hides and watches.he sees what happened but keeps it as a secret.In order to escape the guilt,he makes another fault, making Hassan leave by framing Hassan .Years past, he is still haunted by betraying his childhood friend.
I was shocked when the big secret reveals: Hassan is Amirs half brother,the son of his father and a sevants wife! Amirs father lives a torturing life,he is torn into two parts.He cant give Hassan the love in the name of a father,which is unfair to Hassan.That explains why he seems care little about Amir …
Knowing the truth,Amir has a painful struggle at the first,and finally chooses the right way,a way of atonement.He rescues Hassans orphan ,Sorhab,from Assefs hand.At that time,he faces up to Assefs fists,being a man not cowardly.Having gone though a lot of difficulties,he finally brings Sorhab to American.But Sorhab is emotional damaged by adversity.Amir make efforts to revive the little heart.At the end of the story,Sorhab shows a lopside smile,which delights Amir much.Amir run kite for Hassans son,and says what Hassan once said,"for you, a thousand times over".The snow will be melt,and the spring is coming…The ending is not clearly told,but full of hope.
I like the author written style.Theres paragraghs of internal monologues,warm memorys , sad plots,horrible war scenes…the words,sentences always catch me tightly,make me think,make me cry…Now if someone ask me what novels impressed me most,The Kite Runner will be an answer.
It is the first time I have seen a novel in English.It is hard for me to insist on reading as there are so many words I have to look up.But it really benefit me in some way.
1、我抬起头，望见两只红色的风筝，带着长长的蓝色尾巴，在天空中冉冉升起。它们舞动着，飞越公园西边的树林，飞越风车，并排漂浮着，如同一双眼睛俯视着旧金山，这个我现在当成家园的城市。突然间，哈桑的声音在我脑中响起：为你，千千万万遍。哈桑，那外兔唇的哈桑，那个追风筝的人。
2、湖水澄蓝，波平如镜，阳光照在湖上熠熠生辉。
3、我们还追逐过路的游牧部落，他们经由喀布尔，前往北方的层峦叠嶂。我们能听到他们的牧群走近的声音，绵羊咩咩，山羊咩咩，还有那叮当做响的驼铃。
4、天空一碧如洗，万里无云。白晃晃的雪花刺痛我的眼睛。我捧起一把新雪，塞进嘴里，四周静谧无声，只有几声乌鹊的'啼叫传进耳里。
5、阿富汗人是独立的民族，阿富汗人尊重风俗，但讨厌规则，斗风筝也是这样。规则很简单，放起你的风筝，割断对手的线，祝你好运。
6、我们爬山那座山，靴子踩在泥泞的雪花上吱嘎吱嘎响，寒风微微拂动树枝，吹过山坡上的灌木丛。而下面，水流在山谷淌动，传来阵阵微弱的声音。
7、我不记得那是何年何月的事情。我只知道记忆与我同在，将美好的往事完美地浓缩起来，如同一笔浓墨重彩，涂抹在我们那已经变得灰白单调的生活画布上。
8、我躺在泥土路一边，下面是怪石嶙峋的坑壕，我望着清晨灰蒙蒙的天空，为空气感恩，为光芒感恩，为仍活着感恩。
9、在他打造、谋划、奋斗、烦恼、梦想了一切之后，他的生命只剩下这几点的东西，一个不争气的儿子和两个手提箱。
10、美国是河流，奔腾前进，往事无人提起。我可以蹚进这条大川，让自己的罪恶沉在最深处。让流水把我带向远方，带往没有鬼魂，没有往事，没有罪恶的地方。
11、我能见到他发自内心的微笑，辽阔如同喀布尔的夜空，那些白杨树沙沙响，蟋蟀在花园啾啾叫的夜晚。
12、爸爸毕生都在和熊搏斗。痛失正值芳年的妻子，独自把儿子抚养成人;离开他深爱的家园，他的祖国遭受贫穷、屈辱。而到了最后，终于来了一只他无法打败的熊。但即使这样，他也绝不妥协。
13、听到这些，我才明白自己的生活、身上的秉性有多少是来自爸爸，才知道他在人们的生命中留下的烙印。终我一生，我是“爸爸的儿子”。如今他走了，爸爸再也不会替我引路了，我的自己走。
14、我驱车前往金门公园，独自沿着公园北边的斯普柯湖边散步，那是个美丽的星期天下午，太阳照在波光粼粼的水面上，数十艘轻舟在旧金山清新的和风吹拂中漂行。
15、骑驴才知道驴难骑。
16、明月半弯，银光暗淡，我伫立，抬头望着星辰遍布的夜空。蟋蟀隐身黑暗中啾啾鸣叫，风拂过树梢。
17、而我抬头，公园闪闪发光，铺满的雪多么新鲜，白得多么耀眼，令我目眩神迷。雪花无声地洒落在白色的枝头上，现在我闻到了芜青拌饭的香味、还有桑葚干、酸橙子、锯屑和胡桃的气味。一阵雪花飞舞的寂静盖住了所有声音。然后，远远地，有个声音穿透这片死寂，呼喊我们回家……”。
