英语读后感：飘 Gone with the Wind
The novel is set in north Georgia during the American civil war, 1861-1865, and later when southern plantation owners fought the yankees for the right to own slaves. They lost the war, suffered countless loss of life in the process, and the romantic plantation life described in the first few chapters of the novel was destroyed. During this period, the characters experience a transition from a carefree life of picnics and parties (under the toil of slaves) to a life of subsistence and hard work and, finally, a return to prosperity.
About scarlett o ‘hara and her bravery
Scarlett o ‘hara is a spoiled social beauty with “black eyelashes up” — I love that description! – she used it to attract men. Living with her sisters and parents on their plantation and with dozens of slaves, including their black housekeeper, she was considered (at the time) part of as many families as possible and played an important role in scarlett’s life. The story centers on scarlett’s life during the civil war and the characters she interacts with.
The book begins with the heroine, 17-year-old miss scarlett o ‘hara, flirting with the best abilities of the tarleton twins, handsome twins on the porch of tara, her plantation home, about to go to war, because of its seriousness and berating the ruins of her very interesting ability to attend parties and have lovers. I mention the first page because it encapsulates the nature of the whole novel. Scarlett o ‘hara is a spoiled, selfish beauty with great power over men and a longing for the good things in life. Knowing this, you can see why she makes seemingly absurd choices throughout the novel.
Throughout the novel, scarlett makes terrible decisions, such as marrying the shy, nervous Charles Hamilton (Melanie’s brother) because ASHLEY has the nerve to marry Melanie. She soon discovered that married life was not what it was supposed to be, and that she could no longer flirt freely. When Charles died in the war, things got worse, and scarlett was doomed to be a widow for years, dressed in black and not dancing. To make matters worse, she was pregnant with her first child, a fact she despised. Scarlett, however, was not a person to be held down for long, and she soon rebelled against the constraints of society. Pushed by rhett, she danced and wore colorful clothes during the mourning period.
Later, as the guns of war closed in on scarlett and her comrades, she showed incredible resilience and strength, delivering Melanie’s baby alone in the fall of Atlanta and assuming responsibility for tara. She proved to be a sound and resourceful businesswoman, who could make difficult decisions when they needed to.
You can’t help liking scarlett. She is selfish, vain, manipulative, deceived, hopelessly stupid, but she is also a very lively, loyal, strong person who will say what she wants to say and do what she wants to do, no matter what influence she has on others. Over and over again in fiction, you find yourself thinking, “no, don’t do that!” “But you know she would have done it anyway.
参考译文：
这部小说的背景设定在美国南北战争时期的北乔治亚州，1861年至1865年，以及此后的南方种植园主为争取拥有奴隶的权利而与北方北方佬作战的时期。他们输掉了战争，在这个过程中遭受了无数的生命损失，小说前几章所描写的浪漫的种植园生活也被摧毁了。在这一时期，小说中的人物经历了从无忧无虑的野餐和聚会的生活(在奴隶的辛勤劳作下)到勉强糊口和艰苦劳动的转变，最后，回到繁荣。
关于斯嘉丽·奥哈拉和她的勇敢
斯嘉丽·奥哈拉是一个被宠坏了的社会美女，“黑睫毛直竖”——我喜欢这样的描述!-她用来吸引男人的。她和她的姐妹和父母住在他们的种植园里，和几十个奴隶住在一起，包括他们的黑人管家嬷嬷，她被认为是(在当时尽可能多)家庭的一部分，在思嘉的生活中扮演着重要的角色。故事围绕着斯嘉丽在内战时期的生活和其他与她互动的人物展开。
这本书开始的女主角,17岁的斯佳丽奥哈拉小姐调情的最好能力塔尔顿家的孪生兄弟英俊的双胞胎在门廊上的塔拉,她的种植园居家,即将发生的战争,因为它的严重性并严厉训斥废墟她很有趣的能力,参加聚会,有情郎。我提到第一页是因为它概括了整部小说的本质。斯嘉丽·奥哈拉是一个被宠坏的、自私的美人，有操纵男人的巨大力量，渴望生活中的美好事物。知道了这一点，你就能明白为什么她在整部小说中做出了一些看似荒谬的选择。
在整部小说中，思嘉做了一些可怕的决定，比如嫁给害羞、紧张的查尔斯·汉密尔顿(媚兰的哥哥)，因为艾希礼胆敢娶媚兰。她很快就发现，婚姻生活并不是人们所说的那样，她再也不能随心所欲地调情了。当查尔斯在战争中死去时，事情变得更糟，而思嘉注定要成为多年的寡妇，穿着黑衣服，不跳舞。更糟糕的是，她怀了她的第一个孩子，这是一个她鄙视的事实。然而，斯嘉丽并不是一个可以被长期压制的人，她很快就反抗了社会的约束，在瑞德的推动下，她在服丧期间跳舞，穿着色彩鲜艳的衣服。
后来，当战争的枪炮逼近思嘉和她的同志们时，她表现出惊人的韧性和力量，在亚特兰大被攻陷的情况下独自接生了媚兰的孩子，并担负起管理塔拉的责任。她被证明是一个健全和足智多谋的女商人，谁可以作出困难的决定时，他们需要。
你不能不喜欢思嘉。她自私、虚荣、控制欲强、受欺骗、愚蠢得无可救药，但她也是一个非常活泼、忠诚、坚强的人，无论对别人有什么影响，她都会说她想说的话，做她想做的事。在小说中，你一次又一次地发现自己在想“不，不要那样做!”“但你知道她无论如何都会这么做的。
