Main Contents

The novel happened around Robinson Crusoe. At first, He had a happy family and entered a good school. His parents hoped that he could get a good job. However, he didn’t want that. He wanted to adventure and have an exciting life. When he told his parents that he wanted to be a sailor and would go to sea, his parents were angry. But he never forgot his ambition.

In 1651 he with his friend went to Hull by sea. They adventured a strong wind and a heavy rain. At first he was afraid. Then he didn’t want his friends and his family to laugh at him, so he began to go on with his second time. They met the famous thieves of the sea at that time. The thieves wanted to sell them as slaves but in the end the Turkin capitan decided to keep Robinson for himself as a salve. Then he and a boy named Xury escaped from the Turkin’s control. He met with a Portuguese captain, who would go to Brazil. Robinson came to Brazil with the Portuguese captain. There he began to have a new life. But soon he was bored again. His friends were going to Africa to do business. He went with them again. They met a terrible storm. His friends were all dead. Only Robinson survived and was thrown onto a lonely island.

84 My thoughts about Robinson Crusoe

When I study at a primary school, I read Robinson Course first time. And I have to say, I was deeply attracted by the adventure story at that time.

Generally speaking, Robinson is a person who is very brave, forceful and aggressive.

Crusoe sets sail from the Queen's Dock in Hull on a sea voyage in August 1651, against the wishes of his parents, who wants him to pursue a career, possibly in law. After a tumultuous journey where his ship is wrecked in a storm, his lust for the sea remains so strong that he sets out to sea again. This journey, too, ends in disaster as the ship is taken over by sale pirates and Crusoe is enslaved by a Moor. Two years later, he escapes in a boat with a boy named Xury; a Captain of a Portuguese ship off the west coast of Africa rescues him. The ship is en route to Brazil. Crusoe sells Xury to the captain. With the captain's help, Crusoe procures a plantation. In my opinion, Robin is the true prototype of the British colonist. The whole Anglo-Saxon spirit in Crusoe: the manly independence, the unconscious cruelty, the persistence, the slow yet efficient intelligence, the sexual apathy, the calculating taciturnity. This is achieved through the use of European technology, agriculture and even a rudimentary political hierarchy. Several times in the novel Crusoe refer to himself as the 'king' of the island, whilst the captain describes him as the 'governor' to the mutineers. At the very end of the novel the island is explicitly referred to as a 'colony'. The idealized master-servant relationship Defoe depicts between Crusoe and Friday can also be seen in terms of cultural imperialism. Crusoe represents the 'enlightened' European whilst Friday is the 'savage' who can only be redeemed from his barbarous way of life through assimilation into Crusoe's culture. Nonetheless Defoe also takes the opportunity to criticize the historic Spanish conquest of South America.

英国青年鲁滨逊从小喜欢航海，曾三次离家到南美各地旅行。一日他怀着云游四海的高远志向，告别家人，越过大西洋和太平洋，在惊心动魄的航海中历经无数险情，在一次航海中，鲁宾逊所乘的船在一个荒岛附近触礁，船上的水手和乘客全被淹死了，只有鲁滨逊一个人幸运地活了下来。海浪把他卷上了沙滩。在克服了最初的悲观与绝望之后， 他凭借自己顽强的毅力，与大自然展开了英勇卓绝的斗争。他依靠自己的双手和智慧，利用枪支和简单的工具，自力更生，自食其力地过起了荒凉的野岛生活。经过不懈的努力，他不仅有了自己的住所和家具，还有牧场、种植园，甚至还养了宠物。在如此艰难的情况下，能过上这样的生活，是很不容易的，这完全是他凭借自己的毅力和智慧创造的奇迹。

鲁宾逊是一个善于帮助别人的人，他从一帮食人族手中救下一个俘虏，那天是星期五，所以就给他取名叫“星期五”。从那以后，“星期五”就成为他忠实的伙伴和仆人。鲁宾逊还教他学会了说英语。不久，他又从食人族手中救出了几个俘虏，和他们一起劳动，共同生活。后来，一艘英国船只经过荒岛，鲁宾逊帮助船长制服了叛乱的水手，乘船离开荒岛，返回英国，过上了幸福的生活。鲁宾逊从落难荒岛到返回英国，这段时间竟长达二十多年。

看完这本书，使我深受感动。一个人身陷绝境，竟能这样对生活充满信心，勇敢地面对生活，创造生活，实在是难能可贵的。使我认识到，人不论何时何地，不管遇到多大的困难，都不能被困难吓倒，要勇敢地面对困难，克服困难，始终保持一种积极向上、从容乐观的心态，去面对和挑战厄运。只有这样，才能像鲁宾逊那样，永远是一个胜利者。
