莎希是一个靠着做拉杜球(一种印度甜点)赚点小钱的家庭妇女，她全心全意照顾着一家四口人(婆婆、丈夫、女儿和小儿子)，家里人少不了她却也对她没那么珍惜，认为她的付出是应该的，也看不太起她连英语也不会。
一次机会，莎希需要只身前往美国纽约去帮助筹备外甥女的婚礼。带着对陌生城市的恐惧(她连英语都不太会)和对家人的不舍，她踏上了去纽约的飞机。
可以想象一个语言不通的城市会给一个人带来多大的困扰，一次简单的点单也无法顺利地进行，最后莎希狼狈地“逃出”了餐厅。
想到种种委屈，莎希不禁伤心地哭了起来，正好看到一个四周英语班，她下定决心花了400美元报了这个班。在这个班里，她认识了来自于世界各地在纽约工作的不同职业的人。不仅学习到了更多的英语，也交到了很多朋友。更意外地收获到了一份来自法国厨师对她的爱慕。一边是老公的习以为常和不珍惜，一边是洛朗毫不吝啬的赞美和表白，在激情和责任之间莎希乱了方寸。恰逢此时丈夫带着孩子也来到纽约。莎希还是选择了家庭。面对洛朗对她的倾诉“无论发生什么，你对我来说永远是最特别的那个人”她表达了她深深的感谢“谢谢你让我懂得如何爱自己，知道原来自己很好”而这边丈夫也意识到莎希变得更加自信有魅力而产生了危机感，开始比以前更珍惜妻子，竟然不自信地问她“你还爱我吗？”[偷笑][偷笑][偷笑]
这部电影借着印度家庭妇女学英语的故事告诉人们尤其是婚姻中油腻的'中年妇女们:当你不喜欢自己的时候，你就会不喜欢周围的一切，这时新的东西就会看起来更有吸引力。但是当你学会爱自己了，那么原来沉积的旧生活便会焕然一新，更加美好。(电影中的台词)

前些年看的话，可能会以女主的视角为主线，看到她处处受到责难进退两难。看多了，就能感觉到每一个冲突点，都是在拍电影，不是很自然，太多了。每个点都在指向“不懂英语不行”。似乎所有人都在嘲笑她。所以，她找到了学习英语的意义，把它变成了一个刚需，就有了内生动力。
话说这孩子教育得也挺失败的，跟他父亲的影响不无关系，跟印度整体的环境不无关系。
人类社会处在一个巨大的进程当中，总有一天，不平等会消失。
我们中国人（汉族）敢于穿着自己民族的服装（是什么？）出现在曼哈顿吗？
小球洒一地的时候，真的感受到了女主那种绝望，这是她此次来美国最大亮点，之前的麻烦和劳作，都是为了让客人尝到小球时那种惊喜和incredible的赞叹，这是她生命的全部意义，现在，没有了。
有没有中国父母能做到被小孩子破坏成那个样子的时候，不发飙？现实生活中是怎样的？印度父母在这种情况下会不责备孩子？表示怀疑。或者，这只是剧情需要，此处教育孩子不是重点。
女主太漂亮。
Every girl can be a princess, even though she lives in a low attic, even though she is in shabby clothes, even though she is not beautiful, nevertheless, she can be a real princess at heart.
A Little Princess is a touching novel written by Frances Hodgson Burnett—a famous novelist and dramatist. It obviously contains lots of fancied plots, but the parts it talks about creating miracles, can really reach the bottom of my heart. The book can bring me into a world that is more than reality while reading it. The extraordinary story makes me ponder a lot and gives me a deep impression that every girl can be a princess.
In my opinion, it is impossible for every rich girl to act like a well-behaved princess, but Sara, the heroine of the novel, did it! She was an imaginative little girl who had such intelligent small face and such perfect manners. Sara was a very nice girl who had a gentle, appreciative ways of saying, such as “If you please” “Thank you” which was very charming. So, not only her teachers and classmates liked her, but also her servants liked her. There was a time when Sara became a poor and pitiful servant insulted by the snobbish headmaster of the school. In spite of this, she had never complained to anyone about the horrible suffering she had endured. Sara was confident, brave, optimistic and kind-hearted just like before and she had never given up her enthusiasm of life. No matter when, Sara acted like a princess, and on account of this, she had accomplished a GREat deal of miracles over and over again.
After reading this outstanding book, I was shocked by Sara, a little girl who suffered such unimaginable pain and tortures, but still had an opposite attitude towards life. What impresses me most is that Sara put on her act of being a princess when she wore thin bottom shoes, wading in the street of London. From my point of view, her spirit of being so strong-minded when she was in hard times is worth admiring.
Truly, every girl is a princess coming into common life. The “princess” I mean is not a princess living in the palace and being regarded as the apple of everyone’s eye. As the matter of fact, the “princess” is at heart. I am in the belief that every ordinary girl in the world can be a princess. The way for a girl to be a princess is quite simple. Just suppose! You can suppose yourself to be a princess, and go about your business confidently without caring how the others would treat you. If you want to have more resemblance to a princess, be more kind and try your best to help the people in need. The most important thing you are supposed to do is that to feel like a real princess at any occasion, particularly when you are involved with enormous melancholy. Do not feel the conditions you faced are extremely wretched and attempt to get rid of the feeling of hopelessness and uneasiness. The less you look like a princess, the more you need to feel like a princess at heart.
Every girl can be a princess if she can do all I mentioned, no matter she is rich, beautiful or not. To speak truthfully, I cannot do as well as Sara. However, I will exert myself on being a princess mentally.
Do not feel depressed any more, to be a well-thought-of princess like Sara. You can do it, because Every Girl Can Be A princess.
每个女孩都可以成为公主,虽然她生活在一个低的阁楼,虽然她是在破旧的衣服,即使她不漂亮,但是,她可以是一个真正的公主的心。
一个小公主是一个感人的小说写的弗朗西斯霍奇森Burnett-a著名的小说家和剧作家。显然,它包含许多虚构的情节,但部分谈到创造奇迹,真的可以到达心底。这本书能让我变成了一个比现实世界更在阅读它。非凡的故事让我思考了很多,给了我一个深刻的印象,每个女孩都可以成为公主。
在我看来,每一个富有的女孩不可能像一个行为端正的公主,但莎拉,小说的女主人公,做到了!她是一个富有想象力的小女孩有这样聪明的小脸上,这样完美的礼仪。莎拉是一个非常漂亮的女孩有一个温柔的,欣赏的方式说,如“请”“谢谢”这非常迷人。不仅如此,她的老师和同学喜欢她,而且她的`仆人喜欢她。曾经有一段时间,萨拉成为了贫穷和可怜的仆人侮辱了势利的校长的学校。尽管如此,她从未向任何人抱怨她经历了可怕的痛苦。莎拉是自信,勇敢,乐观,善良,就像之前,她从来没有放弃她的生活热情。无论何时,莎拉就像一位公主,因为这,她完成了大量的奇迹一次又一次。
读完这本优秀的书,我震惊莎拉,一个小女孩遭受难以想象的痛苦和折磨,但仍有一个相反的生活态度。让我印象最深刻的是,萨拉穿上她的公主,当她穿薄底鞋,涉水在伦敦的街头。从我的观点来看,她的精神意志坚强的她在困难时期值得欣赏。
真的,每一个女孩都是公主进入共同生活。“公主”我的意思是说不是一个公主住在皇宫,被视为每个人的的掌上明珠。事实上,“公主”的心。我相信世界上每一个普通的女孩可以是一个公主。为一个女孩是公主非常简单。只是假设!你可以假设自己是一个公主,自信地去做自己的事不关心别人如何对待你。公主如果你想有更多的相似之处,更善良,尽你最大的努力去帮助那些需要帮助的人。最重要的事情你应该做的是,觉得自己像一个真正的公主在任何场合,特别是当你涉及巨大的忧郁。不觉得你面临的情况非常可怜,试图摆脱绝望和不安的感觉。你看起来像个公主越少,你越需要感觉自己像个公主一样的心。
每个女孩都可以成为公主如果她能做所有我提到的,不管她是富裕,美丽的或不。如实说,我不能做以及莎拉。然而,我将发挥自己作为一个公主的精神。
不要感到沮丧,是一个受尊敬的公主像莎拉。你能做到,因为每个女孩都可以成为公主。
高中英语读后感：《傲慢与偏见》
Many people simply regard Pride and Prejudice as a love story, but in my opinion, this book is an illustration of the society at that time. She perfectly reflected the relation between money and marriage at her time and gave the people in her works vivid characters. The characters have their own personalities. Mrs. Bennet is a woman who makes great efforts to marry off her daughters. Mr. Bingley is a friendly young man, but his friend, Mr. Darcy, is a very proud man who seems to always feel superior. Even the five daughters in Bennet family are very different. Jane is simple, innocent and never speaks evil of others. Elizabeth is a clever girl who always has her own opinion. Mary likes reading classic books. (Actually she is a pedant.) Kitty doesn’t have her own opinion but likes to follow her sister, Lydia. Lydia is a girl who follows exotic things, handsome man, and is somehow a little profligate. When I read the book, I can always find the same personalities in the society now. That is why I think this book is indeed the representative of the society in Britain in the 18th century.
The family of gentleman in the countryside is Jane Austen’s favourite topic. But this little topic can reflect big problems. It concludes the stratum situation and economic relationships in Britain in her century. You can find these from the very beginning of this book.
The first sentence in this book is impressive. It reads: “It is a truth well known to all the world that an unmarried man in possession of a large fortune must be in need of a wife”. The undertone is very clear: the foundation of the marriage at that time is not emotion but possession.
People always think that Austen was an expert at telling love stories. In fact, the marriage in her book is not the result of love, but the result of economic needs. After reading this book, I know the truth is that a poor woman must be in need of a husband, a wealthy man.
I couldn’t forget how eager Mrs. Bennet wants to marry off her daughters. If you want to know why she is so crazy about these things, I must mention the situation in Britain at that time. Only the eldest son had the privilege of inheriting his father’s possessions. Younger sons and daughters who are used to luxurious lives have no choice but marry a man or woman in possession of a large fortune to continue their comfortable lives. Thus, we can see that getting married is a way to become wealthier, particularly for women without many possessions. Jane Austen told us that money and possession determined everything, including marriage and love in her century.
In “Pride and Prejudice”, the sister of Mr. Bingley strongly opposed his plan of marrying Jane because the Bennets don’t have many possessions and their social positions are much lower than them. From this, we can see there are a lot of obstacles for a not very rich woman to marry a wealthy husband. The society, the relatives would not allow them to get married.
In modern society, although the marriages of economic needs have decreased rapidly, the concept of “money determines everything” is still rooted in some people’s mind. A lot of parents try hard to interfere their children’s marriages. Education background, possessions, jobs remains the main reason that may influence one’s marriage. Marry for money is still a big problem in our society. We can’t help thinking: can money determine everything?
Austen left this problem for us to think. The genius of Jane Austen lies in this perfect simplicity, the simplicity that reflects big problems. Although Austen was only 21 when she wrote “Pride and Prejudice”, her sharp observation of social lives makes the style of this book surprisingly mature and lively. The plots in her works are always very natural. The development of the plot is as inevitable as a problem in mathematics. I think the depth of Pride and Prejudice is the reason that makes this book prominent and classic. Today, her book still can be the guide telling us the economic relationships both at her time and in modern time.
【参考译文】
很多人只是把傲慢和偏见看成是一个爱情故事，但在我看来，这本书是当时社会的一个例证。她完美地反映了当时金钱与婚姻的关系，并赋予了她作品中人物的生动形象。人物有自己的个性。Bennet夫人是一个努力与女儿结婚的女人。宾利先生是一个友好的年轻人，但他的朋友，达西先生，是一个非常骄傲的人，似乎总是觉得优越。连Bennet家的五个女儿都很不一样。简单纯，天真，从不说别人的恶。伊丽莎白是个聪明的女孩，总是有自己的见解。玛丽喜欢阅读经典书籍。(其实她是一个书呆子。)凯蒂没有自己的意见，而是喜欢跟她的妹妹，丽迪雅。丽迪雅是一个女孩，跟随异国的东西，英俊男子，并不知何故有点挥霍。当我读这本书时，我总能在社会上找到相同的人格。这就是为什么我认为这本书确实是第十八世纪英国社会的代表。
农村绅士家庭是简奥斯丁最喜欢的话题。但这个小话题能反映大问题。总结了19世纪英国的地层状况和经济关系。你可以从这本书的开头找到这些。
这本书的第一句话令人印象深刻。它写道：“这是一个众所周知的事实，一个未婚男子拥有大量财富必须有一个妻子”。低音是非常明确的：当时的婚姻的基础不是感情而是占有。
人们总是认为奥斯丁是讲爱情故事的能手。事实上，她书中的婚姻不是爱情的结果，而是经济需要的结果。读完这本书，我知道一个贫穷的女人一定需要一个丈夫，一个有钱人。
我无法忘记Bennet太太多么渴望娶女儿为妻。如果你想知道她为什么对这些事情如此着迷，那我必须提到当时英国的情况。只有大儿子有继承父亲财产的特权。年轻的儿子和女儿谁习惯了奢侈的生活，除了嫁给一个男人或女人拥有大量的财富，继续他们舒适的生活。因此，我们可以看到，结婚是一种致富的方式，特别是对于没有很多财产的女人。简奥斯丁告诉我们，金钱和占有决定了一切，包括她的世纪里的婚姻和爱情。
在《傲慢与偏见》，宾利先生的姐姐强烈反对他和简结婚的`计划因为bennets没有太多的财产和社会地位比他们低得多。由此我们可以看出，对于一个不太富有的女人嫁给一个有钱的丈夫有很多障碍。社会上，亲戚们都不允许他们结婚。
在现代社会中，尽管经济需求的婚姻迅速下降，“金钱决定一切”的概念仍然植根于一些人的头脑。很多父母努力干涉孩子的婚姻。教育背景、财产、工作仍是影响婚姻的主要原因。为钱结婚仍然是我们社会中的一个大问题。我们不禁思考：金钱能决定一切吗?
奥斯丁离开这个问题让我们思考。简奥斯丁的天才在于这种完美的简单，反映了大问题的简单性。虽然奥斯丁在《傲慢与偏见》中只有21岁，但她对社会生活的敏锐观察使这本书的风格出奇地成熟和生动。她作品中的情节总是很自然的。情节的发展与数学中的问题一样不可避免。我认为傲慢和偏见的深度是使这本书突出和经典的原因。今天，她的书仍然可以指导我们的经济关系，在她的时间和现代时间。
