Recently, I have finished reading Great Expectations, which is widely considered as the
masterpiece of Dickens. The historic background of this book is Victorian Period which was the time when British was governed by Queen Victoria. The hero of the book is Pip, who was living in a blacksmith family. Someday, he met Magwitch, who was a convict, and he helped him. To show his gratitude, Magwitch gave Pip a good fortune and Pip led a totally different life after he got the money. However, Pip lost all of his money and fame because of his enemies’ plot at the last and become ordinary people at the last.
Dickens is famous for his novel such as Great Expectations, the Tale of Two Cities, Oliver Twist and so on. He always creates some people in lower class and show their different qualities. In Great Expectations, he tried to show us the conflict between different classes in Victorian
Period by telling us the story of Pip. After Pip got the money, he left his friends and family to city, and then he learned to raise his social state. However, he was a child born in a blacksmith family and there’s a wide gap between him and the upper class. Finally, he lost all of his great
expectations and went back to his hometown as ordinary people. Fortunately, he met his lover, Estella, in Satis House and they left there together at the end of the story.
In the book, my favorite character is Joe, Pip’s brother in law. He was a blacksmith and belonged to the lower social class. However, he possessed some good qualities that made him noble. For example, though Joe didn’t know any word, he thought highly of Pip when Pip tried to write him a letter. What’s more, Pip’s sister always considered Pip as the burden of their family but Joe always believed that his brother can become successful. No matter how unkindly he was treated, Joe was always family to others. Undoubtedly, it’s Joe’s noble quality that prevents Pip from becoming someone snobbish.
In my opinion, the story of Pip is really attractive while the writing style is also special. For example, Dickens used simile and metaphor for many times in his book. When Joe visited Pip, Dickens wrote that Joe had taken his hat as a bird’s nest with egg in. I think it’s hard to show the inner world of characters as well as feeling because those things are really abstract. On the other hand, if we write it directly, that may be boring and childish. And by using simile, Dickens transforms the abstract feeling into visual language, with which we can use our imagination to enjoy the story much more easily. I think that we can also make good use of Dickens’s outstanding skills to improve our writing.
After reading “Great Expectations”, many people complained that the class difference will always result in tragedy and they think that we should try to destroy those barriers. However, I think the massage that Dickens wants to deliver is that we should always be friendly,
warm-hearted and optimistic. With these qualities, we can always lead a happy and comfortable life like Joe even though we don’t have much money.

Everything on the canvas is flowing, enthusiastic, lively and violent: the sky was occupied with swirling clouds in violet haze and dotted with tens of thousands of flaming stars that brightly blazed in gorgeous gold. A huge cypress cut the subtle flowing of clouds in silence, brown and stretched, bringing a unique elegance of balance to the whole painting. Few clumsy cabins scattered in the open field, strangely in harmony with the turbulently flowing sky. Hazily, the shadows on the hills outlined the turquoise trees and amber grains, bathed in dim moonlight.
Generally, the perfect artworks born under Vincent van Gogh’s hand annotated a new meaning of harmony. Its pureness was based on its complexity, its grace reflected by its clumsiness, its plainness embodied in its glory, its tempestuous flowing leading to a sense of solidity. Marvelous!
Starry Starry Night, a magnificent masterpiece, surely and absolutely.
简评
本文以优美的语言描写了梵高的名画——Starry Starry Night，表现了作者良好的语言表达能力和一定的艺术鉴赏水准。作者为我们展开了一幅画卷，文章的第一句话点明了整幅画的特点：Everythlne on the canvas is flowine。天空中布满了紫色的云彩和金色的闪烁星星。一棵巨大的树将浮动的云一分为二，使整个画面处于平衡状态。空地上分散的几间小屋与浮云流动的`天空保持着奇怪的和谐。山坡上的影子勾勒出青葱的树木，琥珀色的谷物沐浴在月光下。
作者为我们揭示了这幅画的主题：自然界中万物的和谐——简单基于复杂，粗俗中体现着优雅，辉煌中可见平淡，骚动不安皆归于平静。读罢此文，不但犹如亲眼欣赏了艺术大师的名作，而且体会了其中蕴涵的哲学思想。
美中不足的是全文时态不尽统时，最好全部用一般现在时态。在描写景色、人物或画像

1.收入差距悬殊是当前社会的一种现象

3.我的看法
My View on the Income Gap
Now the income gap is getting wider and wider. In some privately owned firms, joint-ventures, or foreign-fund companies, an executive's yearly income is ten times or even a hundred times as much as an ordinary worker's.
Faced with this situation, people will undoubtedly have different opinions. Some believe that it benefits the social and economic development since driving force is often derived from the gap. In other words, the gap inspires people and gives a push to advancement. Others speak of its side effect: income gap is often the root of social unrest and also contrary to our country's principle.
From my point of view, while it is true that the income gap may stimulate the social development to some extent, it causes trouble as well. An income gap that is too wide for most people to bear can neither contribute to the stability of a country nor promote its economic development. Therefore, while we are advocating the rapid development of our country, we should tolerate the narrow income gap but narrow the wide one.
