麦琪的礼物读后感英文
It's a short story by O.Henry that has moved me for a long time.Maybe most of you are familar with its namethat isThe Gift of the Magi.I have read it many times but every time I like to read it slowly and deliberately.I think"The Gift of the Magi"
is meant to be savored.
Maybe there is no necessity for me to repeat the main idea of the story.But I'm
so fascinated with the short story that I want to retell it yo youand to myself.
It happened to a very poor but blissful young couple named Jim and Della in the end of 18th century in England.Because of the maladies of that society and the effect of economic crisisthey worked hard but earned little.Life is very hard for them.Despite of thistheir love to each other and the enthusiasm for life didn't changed at all.When Chrismas day was approuching Della used the money she got from selling her beautiful hair which she treasured very much to give Jim a fob for his grandfather's pocket watch.But Jim had already sold that watch to buy Della tortoiseshell combs to wear in her long hairnot knowing she'd cut it off.
It appears that the gifts they gave each other have been useless.But I think they gave each other the best of what they had to make the other happy.Isn't that true love?We can imagein such rough conditionsas it said in the story"Life is made up of sobssnifflesand smileswith sniffles predominating."Its't absolute reasonable for them to be beaten by the misery.But the fact is that no matter how tough life had beenthey would't lose heart.With strong faith and their love they did their best to make the other pleased."Whennever Mr. James came home and reached his flat above he was called 'Jim'and greatly hugged by Mrs. James."Maybe this account is the best description of their love and struggle against hard life.It was said that the povertier life is the firmer and truer love is."Actuallythey'd given the very best they had out of love.
"They are too foolish children in a flatwho most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house.But in a last wordto the wise of these dayslet it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest."Said the writer in the last paragraph.Yesthey are wisest.They are the magi.Are there any reasons for us not to show respect for the young couple?
I remind my grandparents.They have spent fifty years together.No romantic wordsno stirring behavioursjust comman even pedestrian life.But I can say love exists in every detail of their life.They have gone through war periodthree years' natural disasterscultural revolution and so on.But no matter what happensthey are always considering for the other.Even now both of them have become old step by stepthey still cared about each other.My grandparentsin my opinionis a pair of lovers forever.
Love has nothing to do with moneypossession or status.It's considerationtolerance and respect.It's giving one's best to the other even it means sacrifice.It's affection which connects two persons' heartsand it's reinforced by adversities.
Struggle against adversities.Nothing did they haveat least they owened love.Never give up as long as love exists.From"The Gift of the Magi"from Jim and Della and from my grandparentsI have learned a lot about lovelife and hope.
