《黑骏马》读后感

济南槐荫实验小学 滕睿杰

今年暑假，我读了一本很有趣的长篇小说，小说的名字叫《黑骏马》，这部小说是由英国女作家安娜.西韦乐历经8 年的时间创作完成的一部巨作，它是一部非常受欢迎的作品，自从1877年问世以来，在社会上产生了极为深远的影响。这部小说的故事非常精彩，被人类称为“第一部真正的动物小说”我非常喜欢！

这部小说讲述了主人公黑骏马一生的坎坷经历，它的名字叫黑骊，黑骊是一匹性格温顺，聪明强壮的良种马，它曾经历过多次的“旅行”，在“旅行”中它遇到过善良的主人，去过马市，被人虐待过，也被戴过短缰绳，还和好友金格生活过一段时间，它救过主人的命，也曾沦落为伦敦街头的苦力马，被一些粗暴的人折磨的伤痕累累??，在整个的“旅行”中它饱尝了人间的酸甜苦辣，黑骊的喜怒哀乐给我留下了深深的印象，同时小说中的许多人物的不同的品质也让我对其人性的真、善、恶有了更深的认识，在分享黑骊的喜怒哀乐的同时我也深深感受到了它内心的痛苦、恐惧和无奈，同时对一些人的无知和残酷深恶痛决。

读完这部小说让我陷入了深深的思考，我觉得人类不能光为了自已的利益而让动物像机器一样为人类工作，更不能虐待它们，相反，我们应该爱护动物，成为动物的朋友，在日常生活中人类的许多方面都离不开动物，任何动物都是有感情的，它们为我们的生活带来了帮助和快乐，黑骊尤为如此，它是那么的温顺、那么的善良，它有着像人一样的情感、而且会思考，有时比人类更加仔细，更加机智，我们要以一颗爱护它们的心去对待它们，只有这样才会获得善意的回报！ 故事的最后黑骊终于找到了一个幸福的家，我为它的美好的归宿而高兴！ 这部小说告诉我们任何动物都是有感情的，我们要像爱护自己一样爱护动物，善待动物，关爱每一条生命！

第二篇：黑骏马

《黑骏马》英文读后感

“Animals deserve our kindness, sympathy and understanding,” that is what Anna Sewell－the author of Black Beauty－wanted to convince her readers. Thanks to Sewell, I now think about the animal－human relationship from both the human and the animal’s point of view.

The inspiration for Anna Sewell’s novel was drawn from her own relationship with horses. Anna Sewell was born on March 20th, 1820 in Norfolk, England and was crippled while still very young. Due to her disability, she relied on horse-drawn carriages and grew to love horses as a result. She also became appalled by the careless and cruel treatment horses often received from humans and determined to write a book.. In the second year of work on the book, she was told that she had only eighteen months to live, but she persevered in order “to induce kindness, sympathy and an understanding [of the ] treatment of horses.” Five years later, she was still working on Black Beauty, her only book. Unfortunately,

Sewell died a few months after publication and never learned of the book’s huge success. Black Beauty formed an impassioned plea for animal rights at a time when such a notion had been dismissed as ridiculous.

The novel portrayed the real condition of working horses living in Britain during the Victorian Era. In that time period, the wealthy thought that their horses were treated well because they never stepped into the stable. In order to call people’s attention to horses’ hard life, Sewell tells the story through the first-person narrative voice of a horse. This innovative personification of an animal made the book a real success. Readers heard the stories straight from the horse’s mouth, literally, as an animal spoke of extremes of joy and suffering. People were shocked by the truth exposed by the novel and changed their attitudes towards animals.

Sewell formed the novel with three kinds of characters: Black Beauty, Ginger and other farm animals. Through their different experiences, I saw similarly painful lives led by the animals. This method made the earnest appeal for animal rights become more and more persuasive.

As a domestic animal, Black Beauty was continuously sold from one family to another. Over the years Beauty enjoyed good masters but also endured mean ones. Sometimes, he was cared for and at other times tortured. In the end, everything turns out all right in a story that is so tender and yet meaningful. His story was so vivid that caught the readers’

heart. The novel brought people laughter and tears and also enlightened them to understand animals at the same time.

Animals cannot speak so understanding is significant to them. Once, for example, Beauty was drawing the carriage to a wooden bridge. The bridge was flooded out in the river and John, the groom, was not aware that it was cracked. But the quickly realized that something was wrong because of Beauty’s abnormal behavior. Momentarily, a man shouted to them, “Stop! Stop!…The bridge is broken in the middle. If you come across, you’ll fall in the river!” Beauty had saved John. However, if John had not tried to understand what Beauty wanted to tell him, there would definitely have been an accident. I learnt from the story that understanding animals is not only essential to them but is also beneficial to us ourselves.
