英語(yǔ)小說(shuō)讀書(shū)筆記
There are two opposite gangs named Socs and Greasers. Kids whose backgrounds are very rich are called socials, we name it as Socs. The poor kids are called Greasers, because their hair are covered with grease and they often wear greasy clothes. There are full of contradiction between them. The main character is Ponyboy, he is the youngest greaser, and he hates the Socs because he always gets jumped by them. Darry and Sodapop are his elder brothers, and they both dropped out of school to work in order to raise money for Ponyboy ‘s study. Through seeing a movie together with a rich but kind girl, Cherry, Ponyboy realizes that not all Socs are bad. Johnny is his best friend, he used to be very weak, but after being jumped by 4 Socs, he becomes mad and usually brings a switchblade with him, and if there is anyone who wants to play tricks on him, he will kill that one. Suddenly, in a week, Johnny dies in a fire, Bob(his friend) is kill by someone unwillingly, Dally(the most violent greaser) kill himself because Johnny’s death. Ponyboy grows a lot, realize the love of his families and friends, and promises to be a good man, and not fight anymore..
This is really a heroic story, and I learnt a lot from it..
First of all, I realized that we shouldn’t assess anyone just by knowing about his background. In the book, Ponyboy thought that life was unfair-Socs always win, Greasers always lose. Socs could easily go to college, but Greasers sometimes must drop out of school to work for their livings. So he hated Socs as if from his birth. But he gradually realized that some Socs are kind, but some Greasers are alike a hood. So we should also know people deeply before judging them, and believe the truth more than our subjective things.
Secondly, no matter how our backgrounds and families are, we should have kind and brave hearts. In the story, Ponyboy saw many greasers crime and fight just because of their identify, he thought that was totally wrong. Even his dying friend, Johnny told him to stay gold which means to be kind, simple and pure in a serious health condition. On the other hand, Ponyboy thought Gresers have the same rights as Socs, and he never lowered his head in front of Socs.
There are also something good about love. At the beginning, Ponyboy thought that Dally, his eldest brother fully concentrated on working and making money, but never cared about him and Sodapop, and he was dislike a young man anymore, more like an adult. But once Ponyboy was sick very seriously, he saw Dally crying for the first time when he was asleep-going-to-waken-up. And when they were having a rumble with a gang of Socs, he was always covered with his two elder brothers. From that, he knew his small family would never be short of love, and his brothers loved him much more than he could imagine. In my real life, when my teachers and parents are strict with me, I shouldn’t think that they don’t love me, it is just another, more deep way to love.
The writer wrote this book when he was only a teenager as fourteen-going-to-fifteen, in the same age as me. So it is more easy for me to get close to him and understand him. But he truly experienced all I experienced and something I have never imagined. So I should learn something good from him, and keep away from thing bad he had done.
This book really taught me a lot, and I will spare no efforts to do the good things it bring to me!
