Book report of The Great Gatsby

In fact,I have seen the film version of The Great Gatsby,and also have a distinct impression of the movie.Because of the homework assign by teacher,I take this opportunity to read the Great Gatsby completely and carefully.

Before reading this book, I search for the information about this book’s writer. His name is F. Scott Fitzgerald,American short-story writer and novelist,is known for his turbulent personal life and his famous novel The Great Gatsby.He was born on September 24, 1896, in St. Paul, Minnesota. He is the most important representative person of the “Jazz Age”.He published over 160 short novels, for instance, Benjamin’s Fantasy Trip, Ice Palace, Winter Dream and so on.Fitzgeralddied of a heart attack in 1940, at his age of only 44,while his novel wasn’t completed.

Fitzgerald was a bright and handsome man.He attended the St. Paul Academy,when he was 13. In 1911, when Fitzgerald was 15 years old, his parents sent him to the Newman School, a prestigious Catholic preparatory school in New Jersey. During his study, he met Father Sigourney Fay, who noticed his talent in writing and encouraged him to pursue his literary ambition.

In 1913, he graduated fromthe Newman School. Fitzgerald stayed in New Jersey to continue his study at Princeton University. At Princeton, he made his mind being a good writer.However, Fitzgerald's writing came at the expense of his coursework. In 1917, he dropped out of school to join the U.S. Army. In 1924, Fitzgerald moved to France, and it was there, in Valescure, Fitzgerald wrote his the greatest novel, The Great Gatsby, which was published in 1925.

The Great Gatsby is narrated by Nick, a man who moves into the town of West Egg on Long Island, next door to a mansion owned by the wealthy man who is named as Jay Gatsby. The novel follows Nick and Gatsby's strange friendship and Gatsby's pursuit of a married woman named Daisy. With its beautiful lyricism, pitch-perfect portrayal of the “Jazz Age”, and searching critiques of materialism, love and the American Dream, The Great Gatsby is considered as Fitzgerald's best works. Although the book was well-received when it was published, it was not until the

1950s and 1960s, long time after Fitzgerald's death. The Great Gatsby achieved its stature as the definitive portrait of the "Roaring Twenties," as well as one of the greatest American novels ever written.Since his death, Fitzgerald has gained a reputation as one of the great authors in the history of American literature. And The Great Gatsby become one of therequired reading books for every American high school student, and this book has a great effect on generations of readers in America.

As we know, Fitzgerald’s style is unlike the other modern writers in America, he uses more language to convey the meaningful meaning he wants to say. His themes are often very modern. All of his books and short stories display the loneliness and the misery of modern life.In some articles he written, he conveys the idea that, money can’t buy happiness.

The Great Gatsby was based on the Jazz Time, which describes the period of the 1920s and 1930s.The 1920s began when the World War One over. The 20th ended with a huge drop in stock marketand the Great Depression. Fitzgerald was a representative person in that times. The nation's value had changed in that period. Many Americans were concerned mainly with having a good time and doing what they will. American society enjoyed unprecedented levels of prosperity. People broke the traditions by drinking alcohol, as spendthrifts and lived in a corrupt society. For his own times, Fitzgerald said: "There seemed no question about what was going to happen. America was going on the greatest party in its history and there was going to be plenty to tell about. "It was a world of gold and luxurious living.

This novel mainly tells us the story of Gatsby by Nick’s tone. Nick came to New York from his hometown the America Middle West, and he rent a small house nearby Gatsby’s luxurious mansion where hold a grand banquet every night.

The story began with the meet between Nick and Gatsby. And Nick had an exploratory interest to Gatsby and understood that there was a lost love in Gatsby’s deep heart. Gatsby and Daisy loved each other when Gatsby was young, because of Gatsby’s poor family they fin ally broken up. Then Gatsby joined the First World War. While Daisy was married to Tom who was a rich man, but her marriage was not happy because Tom had a mistress.

Gatsby was very painful and he believed that Daisy betrayed the pure heart because of money, so he resolved to be a man of wealth and a few years later he made it. What’s more, Gatsby built a mansionin the front of Daisy’s house. In order to attract Daisy and aroused the lost love, Gatsby spent money like water. Nick was moved by Gatsby’s pass ion of love, so he visited to his young female cousin Daisy and told her Gatsby’s mind. Then Gatsby often made date with Daisy. Finally, Gatsby found Daisy’s vanity, vulgar and selfish. Gatsby’s beautiful dream broke up, but he still insisted it, has illusion about Daisy, which made his tragedy.

One day Daisy was in a drunken driving Gatsby’s car and caused an accident, she killed Tom’s mistress, she planned a plot with Tom to put the crime to Gatsby. It led to the mistress’ husband shot Gatsby. Gatsby died, only his father and Nick attended the funeral.Nick witnessed everything sadly. By the end, Nick backed to his hometown, the story is over.

We can learn that Gatsby lost Daisy because he had no money, but he is still in love with her. Gatsby tries to persuade Daisy to leave Tom, he loved Daisy so deeply. Gatsby, a romantic dreamer, who believed that time can be fixed, the past can be repeated, youth beauty and love can be recaptured.

Gatsby’s life follows a clear pattern, There is, at first, a dream, then disenchantment, and finally a sense of failure and despair. In this extent, Gatsby’s personal experience approximates the whole of the American experience up to the first few decades of this century. In that time, America had been “a fresh, green breast of the new world,” as the greatest of all human dreams and promised something like the orgiastic feast for humanity.

The story deals symbolically with the failure of the American Dream. It is the story of a young man's search for his ideal of love. But why i t is entitled by “ great” to the hero Gatby? I think it would like to convey a tragic hero in lavish, cruel and indifferent life to reader, a dream-pursuit-man in hollow vanity fair, Gatsby is loyal , true and innocent.

After reading the novel, I was deep ly shocked by Gatsby’s persistence dream, his miserable ending, and impressed more about the “Jazz Age”. In American history,

maybe “it was the best of times, it was the worst of times, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way”.

Gatsby was young and full of passion to realize all his dreams, which could have been a perfect character in any times. However, he was poor, and this, which made him become a tragic character, also was the focus in that age-“Jazz Age”. “There was a faint, barely perceptible movement of the water as the fresh flow from one end urged its way toward the drain at the other. With little ripples that was hardly the shadows of waves, the laden mattress moved irregularly down the pool.” A hopeless ending indicates that the most beautiful dream in that age was eventually destroyed by the reality, the social. We can clearly know that Daisy did not choose Gatsby although he had become much more affluent than Tom, but choose her previous life-living with Tom, it may be a bad choice, but it was really the decision made by Daisy herself, a selfish, disingenuous and vain girl, the girl which Gatsby always loved and was willing to pay everything he has for, even she betrayed more than once, and this can be inferred when Gatsby showed his love and she hesitated.

In a word, The author tries to describe the social, and certainly the shattered “the American dream”. The author not only wants to attack the luxury and hypocrisy of the classes, but also to appeal to people to pursue true love, not the greed of money and hypocrisy, although this book has a desperate ending. As far as I am concerned, to live a meaningful life, we should carefully choose dream to pursue. And in the process of fulfilling our dreams, we should always be serious about what we really desire. Anyhow, only by pursuing the proper dream can we finally gethappiness.

《了不起的盖茨比》读后感1000字

《了不起的盖茨比》读后感1000字 这城市太空洞，这都市太冷漠，这人世太虚假，这人心太复杂，这感情太脆弱，这爱情太虚无，这人性太险恶，这人类太可憎，这现实太残忍，这结局太可悲。 作为《了不起的盖茨比》这个故事的叙述者，尼克对盖茨比有着很特殊的情感，有着非同寻常的深刻印象。尼克曾经这样描述盖茨比的微笑，他说：“一瞬间这种微笑面对着—或者似乎面对着整个永恒的世界，然而一瞬间，它凝聚到你身上，对你表现出一种不可抗拒的偏爱。”以此来看，盖茨比是一个喜欢微笑的人是一个乐观的人，是一个温柔的人。不过事实也的确如此，盖茨比的为人确实很和善，很亲和，很容易让人亲近，很容易叫人产生好感。 读了这本书之后，我觉得盖茨比是一个极其矛盾的人，是一个让人想不通、看不透的人，是一个叫人又爱又恨的人，是一个叫人恨铁不成钢的人，是一个让人既同情又怜惜的人。对于爱情，盖茨比太过执著，太过沉迷；对于感情，盖茨比非常用心，极其费心；对于黛西，盖茨比付出真心，给予浪漫；对于爱人，盖茨比太过真情，太多执念；对于生活，盖茨比太多设想，太过幻想；与人相交，盖茨比的确真心真意，确实纯洁和善；对于朋友，盖茨比非常真诚，极其认真；对于财富，盖茨比拼命追求却不屑享乐。 对于黛西这个女人，我心中有很多不满，很多责备，很多怨言，很多不理解。与此同时，我又觉得她很可怜，很可悲，毕竟在那个乱世来看，她也不过是一个为情所困，为生活所困的可怜人罢了。 黛西既风情又美丽，既娇憨又可爱，既狭隘又善妒，既可怜又可恨，既有一点真诚又极其善于做作，既喜欢寻找刺激又屈服于命运。黛西是一个追求物质，喜欢权贵的人，她为了荣华贪恋上了富贵，为了财富攀附上了富豪，为了豪门放弃了真爱，为了自我伤害了他人，为了脱罪，牺牲了盖茨比。她的这种阴险狠毒，这种蛇蝎心肠，这种懦弱胆小，这种无情无义，这种寡情薄意，着实叫人生气，让人愤怒。 黛西的故意靠近，故意撩拨，故意卖弄，故意隐瞒，故意伤害，让盖茨比深陷其中不可自拔，更是让盖茨比失去了真心，葬送了生命。盖茨比死了，为了所谓的真爱，他就那样无辜的死了，可是悲哀的是，他到死都不知道黛西的真面目，他不知道黛西一直以来都在欺骗他的感情，玩弄他的真心，嘲笑他的痴情，讥讽他的善心，他更不知道，就算他死了，黛西也不在乎他的牺牲，不屑于他的死亡，不在意他的付出，不感谢他的真情，不承认他的感情。 盖茨比的人生是一个悲剧，他的爱情更是一个笑话，可是造成他这种结局的，除了可恶的黛西，除了可悲的盖茨比本身，还在于那个动乱的年代，那个残酷的年代，那个浮躁的年代，那个腐败的年代。我希望，有更多的人可以从这部书中受到一些启发，得到一些教训，我更期望，这个世界可以多一些善心，多一些真心，多一些真实，多一些真情。

《了不起的盖茨比》英文读后感

Pursuit for dreams —after reading The Great Gatsby I have heard of the famous novel The Great Gatsby for many years. However, until recently have I got the time and mood to read it. As soon as I finish reading, I find my previous unwarranted assumption of it totally wrong. This is a story about Gatsby and his pursuit for the ‘American dreams'. During the World War One, the poor soldier Gatsby fell in love with an upper class girl named Daisy. But due to the wide gap between them, Daisy decided to marry Tom, a man of her class, instead of Gatsby. Broken-hearted Gatsby then held the conviction that money was of the greatest importance. He strongly believed in the ‘American dreams', which as we all know, advocates that one can achieve whatever he or she likes through continuous efforts. He strived for five years to become a millionaire and bought a villa near Daisy's to attract her. He was too addicted to his fantasy to realize that Daisy was no longer the lovely girl she used to be. Eventually, he was killed because of her crime. After reading it, something reverberates in my heart. I

却在一开始就注定已经是一场悲剧。在那个物欲横流的社会，再美好的爱情也抵挡不住金钱和地位的诱惑。数年的等待已经 * 改变了黛西以及她与盖茨比之间曾经看起来坚贞不渝的爱情。影片最后黛西无情地离开了一直深爱着她的盖茨比。看到最后我们不禁为盖茨比对爱情的坚贞不渝 而感动，同时也对黛西的无情和势利感到心痛。我们不禁要问：难道爱情真的会败给现实和时间吗？其实回过头来想想盖茨比美好的幻想其实从一开始就注定会是一场梦而已。爱情固然伟大美好并且值得我们为此坚守一生，可是现实往往是残酷的，任何事情都抵挡不住时间的消磨和名利的诱惑。纵使曾经和自己深爱并且许下海誓山盟的誓言的爱人。黛西最后连盖茨比的葬礼也没来参加，就说明爱情在现实面前有时会是多么的不堪一击。盖茨比的故事以一场悲剧结束，我想原著作者菲茨杰拉德更想要表现的是在那个充满物质欲望和不 安定社会氛围中的一种对社会崇尚奢侈之风的不满以及对于物质欲 望泯灭人性的思考。 20世纪初期美国经济迅速发展，处于盛极一时的柯立芝时代，迅速发展的经济造就了一批类似于盖茨比和汤姆一样的富豪。但是与此同时社会贫富差距日益扩大，追求金钱利益似乎成了每个人共同的愿望，男人追求财富和美女，女人热衷于地位和金钱。黛西最终在盖茨比回到她身边之前嫁给了富商汤姆，这体现了她对于名利的渴望。试想如果她果真是个对爱情坚贞不渝的人的话，那为何在盖茨比数年后再次回到她身旁时她却失去了想和盖茨比度过余生的勇气。这种结果

the_great_gatsby(了不起的盖茨比)_英文介绍及赏析

The Great Gatsby F.Scott.Fitzgerald . Character List Daisy Buchanan - Nick’s cousin, and the woman Gatsby loves. As a young woman in Louisville before the war, Daisy was courted by a number of officers, including Gatsby. She fell in love with Gatsby and promised to wait for him. However, Daisy harbors a deep need to be loved, and when a wealthy, powerful young man named Tom Buchanan asked her to marry him, Daisy decided not to wait for Gatsby after all. Now a beautiful socialite, Daisy lives with Tom across from Gatsby in the fashionable East Egg district of Long Island. She is sardonic and somewhat cynical, and behaves superficially to mask her pain at her husband’s constant infidelity. Daisy Buchanan (In-Depth Analysis) Tom Buchanan - Daisy’s immensely wealthy husband, once a member of Nick’s social club at Yale. Powerfully built and hailing from a socially solid old family, Tom is an arrogant, hypocritical bully. His social attitudes are laced with racism and sexism, and he never even considers trying to live up to the moral standard he demands from those around him. He has no moral qualms about his own extramarital affair with Myrtle, but when he begins to suspect Daisy and Gatsby of having an affair, he becomes outraged and forces a confrontation. Jordan Baker - Daisy’s friend, a woman with whom Nick becomes romantically involved during the course of the novel. A competitive golfer, Jordan represents one of the “new women” of the 1920s—cynical, boyish, and self-centered. Jordan is beautiful, but also dishonest: she cheated in order to win her first golf tournament and continually bends the truth. Myrtle Wilson - Tom’s lover, whose lifeless husband George owns a run-down garage in the valley of ashes. Myrtle herself possesses a fierce vitality and desperately looks for a way to improve her situation. Unfortunately for her, she chooses Tom, who treats her as a mere object of his desire. Analysis of Major Characters Daisy Buchanan Partially based on Fitzgerald’s wife, Zelda, Daisy is a beautiful young woman from Louisville, Kentucky. She is Nick’s cousin and the object of Gatsby’s love. As a young debutante in Louisville, Daisy was extremely popular among the military officers stationed near her home, including Jay Gatsby. Gatsby lied about his background to Daisy, claiming to be from a wealthy family in order to convince her that he was worthy of her. Eventually, Gatsby won Daisy’s heart, and they made love before Gatsby left to fight in the war. Daisy promised to wait for Gatsby, but in 1919 she chose instead to marry Tom Buchanan, a young man from a solid, aristocratic family who could promise her a wealthy lifestyle and who had the support of her parents. After 1919, Gatsby dedicated himself to winning Daisy back, making her the single goal of all of his dreams and the main motivation behind his acquisition of immense wealth through criminal activity. To Gatsby, Daisy represents the paragon of perfection—she has the aura of charm, wealth, sophistication, grace, and aristocracy that he longed for as a child in North Dakota and that first attracted him to her. In reality, however, Daisy falls far short of Gatsby’s ideals. She is beautiful and charming, but also fickle, shallow, bored, and sardonic. Nick characterizes her as a careless person who smashes things up and then retreats behind her money. Daisy proves her real nature when she chooses Tom over Gatsby in Chapter VII, then allows Gatsby to take the blame for killing Myrtle Wilson even though she herself was driving

《了不起的盖茨比》英文读后感

Why is Gatsby great? After finishing this novel, this question keep me puzzled for a long time. Is this an irony? As a result of deep thinking and analyzing others' reviews, I finally came to a conclusion, that it isn't a irony. Gatsby is dramatically great. First, he is a man of ambition and diligence. He was born poor materially but not mentally ,longing for a broader world outside. Accidentally he met Dan Cody, a wealthy captain who bring him to the upper class, changing his life. Gatsby was not Gat was called James Gatz originally, but he changed his name in order to suit his status. When he was young, he fell in love with a beautiful debutante, Daisy, when the first world war broke out abruptly. Gatsby reluctantly joined the army, expecting to marry her as soon as the war ended. To his depression, he couldn’t return to America for some particular reason, and five years passed, Daisy married a rich football player, which convinced Gatsby that it was the desire of money captivated Daisy’s pure soul, so he exerted himself to make money, though by some shady business. In consequence of his diligence, he became a famous millionaire that everyone knew in West Egg. It was an typical American story: a poor man managed to be rich Second, he is a man of romantic dream and honest love. He built a luxurious mansion across the bay of Daisy’ house, holding extravagant parties every night, merely because maybe someday she would come. After several twists and turns, he got the opportunity to met her again. He was so into her that as a middle-aged man he couldn’t calm himself. He decorated the room with fresh flowers like garden, just as a teenage boy who is to date with his crushed girl for the first time. When the doorbell rang, he went out and ran in the pouring rain in order to hold back his excitement. There wouldn’t be a more honest man in the world, let alone in the materialistic society where unction was learnt by everyone and honesty was seen as foolishness. His love was the purest in the world and no one would have the honor to accept it. Even though it struck him that Daisy no longer loved him, what she loved was merely his money and the stimulation caused by affairs. After Daisy killed a woman by car accident, he chose to take the responsibility, in order that she would lead an easier life. Last but not the least, he is a man who can find devout hope in impasse and keep it on in the firm belief. He was convinced that it was himself who was the man Daisy ever loved from the beginning to the end, and that she merely married her husband for money. Even after she told him literally that she once love both of them but she only love Gatsby at that moment, he couldn’t accept it.‘Daisy will call’, he just believed for no reason. He moved the telephone around the swimming pool, for fear that he might miss her call. He believed that everyone was as kind as he. He believed in the diming green light. At the same time, “the great Gatsby” is also an irony. The narrator Nick Carraway who hardly ever commented on anybody else said that Gatsby were worth the whole damn bunch put together. The people around Gatsby, including Tom

《了不起的盖茨比》读后感400字 导语：《了不起的盖茨比》问世，奠定了弗·司各特·菲茨杰拉德在现代美国文学史上的地位，成了20年代“爵士时代”的发言人和“迷惘的一代”的代表作家之一。20世纪末，美国学术界权威在百年英语文学长河中选出一百部最优秀的小说，《了不起的盖茨比》高居第二位，傲然跻身当代经典行列。下面是由橙子为大家整理的几篇关于这本书的读后感希望你们能喜欢！ 【第一篇】 去年的暑假，趁着闲暇之余我捧起了这本在影响美国人一生的文学名著中排名第二的小说。《了不起的盖茨比》是一本在上文学上怀有“美国梦”的作家菲茨杰拉德的作品，菲茨杰拉德认为他自己与众不同，与他的父母也不同，甚至不认为自己是父母的儿子，他拥有一种来自于柏拉图式的自我观念。 在这本小说中，主人公即盖茨比就是一种自认为与众不同的人，他同样拥有柏拉图式的爱情观。他把自己看成是上帝之子，他认为自己应为上帝的事业效劳，他追求一种“博大的，世俗的，虚饰的美”，显然他把自己想象成为基督一样的人物。十七岁的他决定改名，由原来的詹姆斯·盖茨改为杰伊·盖茨比，据说杰伊·盖茨比是英语Jesus， God's boy 发音的变体。但是具有讽刺意味的是，从他改名那一刻起，他开始追求所谓的美和善，也就开始了他的人生悲剧。他把黛西·布坎南视为他追求的那种美的化身。当他见到她时，他知道她已经把他的理想与他的生命气息结合在一起了。他知道他的心要与上帝的心一样，必须专一，绝不可驰心旁骛。当他第一次亲吻她时，“她就像一朵鲜花一样为他绽放，于是这个理想的化身就完成了。”在黛西身上，盖茨比的梦想变得有血有肉。他企求与黛西联袂来实现自己的梦想。 但是，黛西根本无力担任这个角色。她不过是一个一项了为人生最高目标的资产阶级小姐，没有思想，没有情操，浅薄虚假，百无聊赖，无所事事。她绝不可能为实现盖茨比自己的梦想去牺牲自己的既得利益。而盖茨比自己当然不可能实现自己的梦想，他的想法太过虚幻。他和黛西的丈夫汤姆·布坎南都拥有财富，两人的不同之处是他至少用他的财富去追求一种“美”，并竭尽全力去得到它。然

The comment of "Pride and prejudice" Pride and Prejudice is a novel written by the famous English writer, Jane Austen, who was the sixth children in a family of seven and was born in the village of steventon in Hampshire in 1775 an d died of Addison’s disease in 1817.

The story ends with both their happy marriages. Sir Walter Scott 评论 READ again, and for the third time at least, Miss Austen's very finely written novel of "Pride and Prejudice." That young lady has a talent for describing the involvements and feelings and characters of ordinary life which is to me the most wonderful I ever met with. The big bow-wow strain I can do myself like any now going; but the exquisite touch, which renders ordinary commonplace things and characters interesting, from the truth of the description and the sentiment, is denied to me.—From "The Journal of Sir Walter Scott," March, 1826. We bestow no mean compliment upon the author of "Emma" when we say that keeping close to common incidents, and to such characters as occupy the ordinary walks of life, she has produced sketches of such spirit and originality that we never miss the excitation which depends upon a narrative of uncommon events, arising from the consideration of minds, manners, and sentiments, greatly above our own. In this class she stands almost alone; for the scenes of Miss Edgeworth are laid in higher life, varied by more romantic incident, and by her remarkable power of embodying and illustrating national character. But the author of "Emma" confines herself chiefly to the middling classes of society; her most distinguished characters do not rise greatly above well-bred

《了不起的盖茨比》读后感（推荐10篇） 这篇《了不起的盖茨比》读后感范文是我们精心挑选的，但原对你有参考作用。 花了几天，断断续续读完该书。其实是昨晚一口气读了后面的70％的内容，读完后却发现没啥特别的感觉，这种感觉早在读完前言时就有了，却因为这是本众人推荐的世界名著，所以坚持读完。 不知是不是很久不读名著了，有些不明白读这些是为了什么了。读历史可以了解史实，读散文可以欣赏其文笔，读名言警句可以励志明理，读言情可以见证主人公的爱恨别离。 那么对这些名著呢？通过主人公的性格遭遇反应出一些道理？反衬出当时的社会风气习俗？批判一些褒奖某种？细想来大概吧。 看来真的是太久没有静下心来读过书了，连读书都带有了一定的目的性，想着读了哪些小说名著或许就能弥补之前落下的功课了！ 看来我真是太急功近利了，想着读一本书要么让我学到什么，要么使我懂得一些，其他便只是走马观花。

还好，我及时反省，明白这是一个长期坚持积累的过程，而非一蹴而就。 一本好书，自然有其值得阅读的道理，或许并非每本我都能读得其真谛懂得其精髓，但总会收获一些我自己的体会和领悟不是么？既如此，便要做好笔记或是记下感悟。日复一日，总归会有所长进！ 来说说盖茨比。我不太懂得他所生活的年代背景，更很少读过外国名著，所以单纯讲他的这些经历，我确实没懂作者说的了不起指什么？ 指对梦想的坚持？对感情的忠贞？还是其他？有人说他偏执，所以也才有了最终的悲剧收场。 有人敬佩他对戴茜的爱矢志不移，痛恨戴茜自私自利纸醉金迷。 想想盖茨比父亲描述中的盖茨比，从小就对自己严格要求，这也就难怪他最后能成为富豪。 可是我真的怀疑他对戴茜的感情，真的是那么坚贞那么不移？或者年轻的时候确实如此，可是时日愈久愈发成了一种执念，亦或只是为了证明？
