聖誕歡歌英文讀後感

　　篇一：聖誕歡歌英文讀後感

　　The spirit of Christmas Carol is to give, to forgive, and to love others. I get this message from the story A Christmas Carol , which is written by Charles Dickens, a famous English writer in the 19th century. It is about a miserly Englishman named Ebenezer Scrooge, who met three ghosts in a night and then became the best old man in England.

　　The change happened in this way: Ebenezer Scrooge was a greedy and lonely man. He wanted to spend all his days working so as to make more money. He had a clerk called Bob Cratchit, and he also wanted him to work all day long without raising his salary. As Scrooge never felt that he had made enough money he never felt happy, not even on Christmas. Bob did not feel happy either, because he had to work all the year round with no weekends, holidays, not even Christmas, yet still being unable to support his family with his small salary.

　　On one Christmas Day, when Scrooge went home after work, there was something strange happening in his house. After he sat down on his sofa to have a tea, a ghost appeared before him. It was Scrooge”s old partner, Marley! Scrooge was frightened. The ghost of Marley was chained up by a long iron chain. He told Scrooge that he needed to change his bad ways otherwise he would also be chained up when he died with even a much longer chain. He also told Scrooge that there would be three ghosts coming to vist him that night. And then the ghost left him and went away.

　　When the clock struke twelve, the ghost of Christmas Past appeared. It took him to his boyhood. He was a lonely and unfortunate boy. Every one forgot him, even his family. Only his younger sister remembered him. This made Scrooge remember that he had sent a boy away, who was singing Christmas Carol in front of his office yesterday. He felt really sorry for the boy.

　　When the clock struke one, the ghost of Christmas Present appeared. It took him to Bob”s house. Although Bob”s family were not very rich, they still had a good Christmas party. They drank for each one”s health. But when they came to drink for Scrooge”s health, everyone looked sad. They thought Scrooge was good for nothing. Then the ghost took him to Scrooge”s nephew”s house. They were having a Christmas party too. They were talking about Scrooge. They thought Scrooge was a miser who did not use his money to do anything good. Scrooge made a reflection on how to spend his money doing good deeds after he heard this.

　　Soon the clock struk two and the ghost of Christmas Future came. It took Scrooge to a funeral house. It was his own funeral but no one was sorry for him. This made Scrooge know that if he did not change his miserly ways, he would have an awful result and a miserable death. No one would miss him when he died. This trip gave Scrooge a good warning and he became a generous and kind man ever since the next day. He sent a turkey to Bob and gave to the poor. Most importantly, he gave Bob a pay-rise!

　　The spirit of Christmas is to give, to forgive, and to love others. A man who gets a lot of money but with no generosity will never live a happy life. He will spend a life of unhappiness and grievence. But a poor man with a generous heart will live his life in happiness and laughter. We need to forgive others when they hurt you or harm you, just like what Scrooge”s nephew did in the story. He forgave Scrooge when Scrooge said something which hurt him a lot. We also need to love others, just like what Scrooge did at the end of the story. He sent a big turkey to Bob and gave him a pay-rise. Let us be generous and kind, both to the poor and the strangers, our friends and neighbors. In that way we will live a happy and lovely life in the world!

　　A Christmas Carol

　　A Christmas Carol is one of the most famous works of Charles Dickens, who is a Criticism writer in the 19th century. His works mainly reflect the reality. So I like his works very much.

　　Charles Dickens was born in 1812, England. He had many difficulties during his childhood. However, these experiences enriched his life, at the same time, supporting many writing materials for his writing. He wrote more than 20 novels in all, reflecting the hate to the money and the sympathy to the common people. His works, such as Great Expectations, a Tale 0f Tw0 Cities, were affected by many readers.

　　This novel told a people who regard money as important as his own life---Scrooge. Even on Christmas Eve, he was also quite mean to everybody. There are five chapters in all. Chapter 1 introduced scrooge”s character and Marley, his friend”s ghost. The language was very beautiful and active. I like this part best. As followed there was a part of word to describe Scrooge: he was a hard man with money, hard as a stone. He was a secret self-contained man; friendless and alone .the coldness inside him froze his old face. His eyes were red. His thin lips were blue. Cold seemed to stiffen his way of walking. The hair on his head and above his eyes was white, white as snow. He carries this coldness with him always wherever he went. This part illustrated Scrooge was a cold man. He grasped the money tightly. As the following story, Scrooge refused his nephew invitation to have the dinner with his family. And he always scolded the Christmas is humbug. He didn”t believe the existence of Christmas and didn”t want to share his happiness and money with others. He had dinner in an inn and then went home. He had rooms in a house which had once belonged to Marley. Scolded sat quietly on the coach. But suddenly there is a big knocker on the door. It was Marley”s ghost. The ghost was bound by the heavy chain and told Scrooge its tragic fate. The ghost told Scrooge that three spirits will come to Scrooge and then faded away.

　　From chapter 2 to chapter 4, it talked about the three spirits. The first spirit stood for the past. It showed the happy times in the past of Scrooge. In the past Scrooge always said “Merry Christmas” to whoever he met. He loved life and enjoyed everything in his life. In this part the spirit also showed the first work of Scrooge. His boss, Fezziwig, treated them very well on Christmas. But Scrooge gradually changed. He loved money more than his lover. So his lover parted with him. It”s the money that made Scrooge lost many things. The second stands for the present. in this part , Scrooge is a greedy man . He has no mercy to everything and waste of his time. The third spirit stands for the future. In this part, it showed that Scrooge regret what he had done. And Scrooge was impressed at last. He understood money is not the only thing that is worth to reserve. Love and care were important too.

　　At the last chapter, that is chapter 5, Scrooge changed himself and gave mercy to the poor. And he had dinner with his nephew.

　　All in all, this story has a perfect end. Form this story, I realized that in this world, money is not everything. We also need love and help.
