Bunyan once in his book named Pilgrim’s Process described a place named ‘Vanity Fair’ where all kinds of vanity are sold, such as houses, lands, honors, preferments, titles,lusts, pleasures and delights of all sorts. As a matter of fact, we are living in such place today. We gradually become the participants of this fair and loyal followers of these hollow things. Espencially our modern grils’ changing view toward marriage, money and social status. They believe that they could easily live a life like a grand lady without making any efforts if they marry a wealthy man. As female college students, how to stick to our own belief and aviod being assimilated by the complex society, Thackeray’s novel Vanity Fair could give us a good instruction. Through the Rebacca’s attitude towards money, social status and marriage, I realize what is most important thing for a female.
Thackeray described the life of ruling classes of England in the early decades of the 19th century, and attacked the social relationship of bourgeois world by satirizing the individuals in the different strata of the upper society. Rebacca(becky) Sharp is a classic example of the money-grubbing instinct. Her only aspiration in life is to gain wealth and position by any means. Thackeray does not regard Rebacca as an exception. Everyone wishes to gain something in the Vanity Fair and acts almost in the same manner as Rebacca.
As an orphan, Rebacca’s birth can easily win our tears. It is an undenible fact that she is quite an ambitious and clever girl. As far as I am concerned, she could easily live a decent life with her own hand. However, because of the society and the innate deficits in her characteristics, she becomes very sophisticate and even tried to suduce her best friend’s brother so that she could win her place in the upper society and other’s admiration. However, for the people in the upper class, Rebacca’s humble birth cuold never be erased even though she married a rich man. In other’s eye, she was just a coquette who was quite good at suducing rich men. Why not use your own hand to create a bright future and win others’ true respect instead of relying on the man’s shoulder.
Rebacca liveed in a society which is ruled by money, everyone was crazy about money, Rebacca was no exception. She held the dream of living a life of a grand lady, wearing luxurious clothes and shining dimonds. In order to realize her dream, she used all kinds of immoral means to win the love of rich men. Finally, she got married with Rawdon Crawley, a good man who will inherit a large sum of money from her ant. However, the old lady refused because Crawley married Rebacca---a woman of low social status. Rebacca and her husband live a quite luxurious life in Pairs even though they could not make the both ends meet. Finally, Mr.Crawley was put in to prison because of heavy debets, while Rebacca started searching for another rich man who can pay for her luxurious bills. Rebacca betrayed her soul in the process of pursuiting money and gradually forgot the meaning of love.
Marriage is a holy thing in everyone’s life, but if you regard marriage as a good method of gaining money and improving your social status, you will suffer a lot from it. Although you live a decent life and gain other’s admiration,you may never be ture happy because you never know what is love and responsibilty. Rebacca’s marriage is a good example. She took a quite easy attitude towords marriage. Her marriage was just a method which helped her get in to the upper class and live a rich life. Ther is no wonder that she was so cruel to her husband and flirted with another rich man when her husband was in the prison. Here I want to mention another female----Amelia, a girl of simple mind. In Rebacca’s mind she was a fool. At first, she held the same view as Rebacca. Her husband’s death in the war made her become a sorrowful widow. Till one day Rebacca told her that her husband once asked Rebaccato run with him. Amelia was angry and married a man who has taken care of her for several years uncomplainly. Amelia is not a cold hearted women, although her dream of being a grand lady had vanished,but she experienced a life of being truly loved. While for Rebacca, she will forever lived in the Vanity Fair and never has the chance to experience this kind of love. In my eye , Amelia is wiser than her.
Rebacca is a tragic female during that period. Although this novel ended with a happy ending--- Rebacca got marriad with Amelia’s brother and inherited a large sum of money, liveed a grand lady’s life ---who dare to say that Rebacca will stop betraying her soul and keep away from Vanity Fair? I would like to give an advice to her and to the grils in our modern society: please keep always from Vanity, and take a correct attitude towards money, social status and marriage. Money is not every in our life. The improvement of our social status needs our own efforts instead of relying on others. Mrriage is a holly thing in our girls’ life, which requires our responsibility and loyalty. Or we will forever live in a hollow world and the dream of vanity will finally destory us.

【参考译文】
寒假期间,我读了一本小说《名利场》,小说的主要情节可以分两条线索。一个线索是死者的穷画家的女儿贝基离开后pingkedun女子寄宿学校,会暂时在富裕家庭爱米丽亚家,但她试图勾引她的哥哥进入上流社会。经过这件事失败了,贝基来到毕脱-克劳莱家的家庭教师,同时她扮演一些可爱的手段如油腻,和合伙与好用。但当皮特提出贝基失去配偶,她已经嫁给了knight的儿子罗。另一个线索写纯洁的女孩阿米莉亚深在警官george osborne的爱,超越一切障碍,终于嫁给他。但是她的丈夫马上就抛弃了她。阿米莉亚是痴情的乔治,即使她丈夫死后,她仍不愿再嫁他人。最后,贝基告诉事实乔治约见自私奔生前,她同意结婚。贝基被遗弃是因为丈夫后来找到了人际关系。她的晚年从另一个情人手里继承了一笔遗产,慈善事业开始变得热情起来。
不得不承认这个故事很真实。名利场里面的人看不清楚,名利场的外面人一样看不清。某人都渴望金钱,地位。一旦你拥有了其中一种,其他人都特别重视你。都宾用一生的爱等到了他所爱的人,他把自己的青春和时间在名利场中的可怜人。但是,最后是好的。我想作者不忍心让好人受苦,善良的人得到了幸福,在名利场里进来了又走了出来。那些贪婪的,自私的,愚蠢的,骄傲的,肆无忌惮的人得到了应有的报应。看着最后几次,有点开心,有点难过。这不仅是小说,这是一个缩影社会。它不仅在英国当时,它也在今天。谁不名利?其他是基于这个。物质生活问题不解决,谁去追求一种神话般的纯理想?因此,大学生学习的目的已成为一项工作,工作就是有一部分能让人以一种特殊的精神看待生活。当然,这并不能替代,我们都是命运的棋子,命中目标个人。考虑自身的.社会地位,考虑如何提高自己的社会地位。人只能去崇拜别人,讲那些显赫的人物,你就去不去作曲,会有人去作曲。
名利场,我们怎么能进来和走出这个地方,怎么面对这个地方,大家都在小说里无知的自私,渴望名利,到头来无所努力。
作者萨克雷描绘了一个栩栩如生的画面的名利场inrealityin小说,生活中是背叛欺骗和敲诈对方,欺骗,势利虚荣等丑陋的行动表现的淋漓尽致。作者最后写道:“哦!虚荣虚荣!我们这个世界上有谁会是幸福的呢?我们必须按照自己的意愿来完成每一件事?但即使所谓的,有谁有满意的布“?
