1.London's classic tale of survival, about a gentle California dog's gradual transformation into a fierce arctic predator, calls for a robust, masculine reading. Because it is told from the dog's point of view, it also demands a narrator who can communicate the nuances of both animal and human emotion.

2.At the beginning of this century, many new writers emerged with the introduction of many new ideas. Among them, Jack London was the most popular one.

His most famous novel is the call of the wild . Although it is a story about a dog, Buck, it vividly depicts the life in the primitive North where people rushed for gold and fortune.

Buck, used to belong to a judge, was kidnapped and sold to North. Then he became a member of a dog-team pulling a sled . In the days of pulling a snow-sled, he learned to conform to the law of nature and obey the master. Finally, he found a basic instinct hidden inside him, which enabled himself to survive the tough environment. This is the call of the wild.

When you read the story, you will feel that Buck is a man instead of a dog, struggling with his fortune and conforming to the law of nature.

Though short, it is really a thrilling story. What you never forget is the tough life in the nature, the brave and crafty dog. Maybe the wild is calling you to go ahead.

While writing for only 16 years throughout his life, London produced an amazing body of work among which, White Fang, Martin Eden, the Valley of the Moon are representative.

3.My Call of the Wild

------ Enlightenment of The Call of the Wild

" He sings a song of the younger world, which is the song of the pack." (Chapter VII

The Sounding of the Wild) When the last sentence vanished from my eyes, I can still perceive an echo of a song - a wild song, which knocks up my dizzy mind that always

cheerfully sink into the so-called civilized world without questioning. Wild, is no longer a symbol of the law of jungle but a headspring where streams out love, passion, bravery, loyalty, friendship, venture, competition and tolerance all these virtues can easily be found in the Call of the Wild.

Jack London (1876-1916) is a worldwide renowned novelist. His stories successfully

reflect the contradictory views of man’s nature and destiny in and against the wild, and his "fight to survive" notion has gained him and his works timeless popularity, particularly, the Call of the Wild.

It tells a story of a gigantic dog, named Buck, who is stolen from a rich and comfortable home and forced to learn to survive as an Alaskan sled dog. Buck, at first, is too savage for the company of man until he coincidently encounters his beloved master-kindhearted John Thornton. Finally, John’s incidental death breaks Buck’s last tie to the man and drives him into his long-desired wild with his pack. In the story, Buck and John simply adopt themselves to answer the call of the wild. When it comes to Buck’s mind that one day he will eventually leave John- his master, all he wants to do is just to help him finish the gold-rush-trip. He " from then on, night and day, never put a halt, in desperation, he burst into long stretch of flight, did not to stay him (John)…" (Chapter VII The Sounding of The Wild) Buck wished to remember John’s image forever, he "for two days and nights never left camp, never let Thornton out of his sight. He

followed him about at his work, watched him while saw him into blankets at night and out of them in the morning…" (Chapter VII) When I read these words I just could not hold my tears bursting. Can a real man devote himself to loyalty and friendship in such a way? On the other hand, John Thornton is not only a dog-lover but also a brave and venturous man. He is so straightforward and simple that makes him an accommodating man. Once he firmly roots a goal into his heart, it seems that nothing could prevent him from accomplishing it except death. I do not know whether the persistence is the most vital element to make a man successful, but what I know is that you are not far away from success once you occupy it.

It is Jack London who plunges me into the animated wild from the hustle-and-bustle and from desperate city. There, I merely cannot deny the attraction of Buck’s bark, which enlightens me to pursue another lost half of the nature in mankind, and to dig out a true meaning of life. Dare we

imagine that London intentionally employs Buck to set us a model with perfect characters (count barbarity out)? The answer is affirmed. We, as animals, are from the wild but shedding off more and more wild signs, which demonstrate us as the "uncivilized". However, who can fully guarantee that we have not overlooked some essential wild-endowed virtues? Especially, nowadays, it seems more crucial for us to stop looking at the post-industrialized world and to ponder for a while. When cheats, betrayals, lies, lusts and crimes stuff a materialized society, whether London uses this novel to help himself escape the reality or warn the earthy people, to us, modern man, is all the same. It appears horrible that in modern society many people are enthusiastically talking about how to build up "special relations" to the authority, deceiving and lying to each other. To them life is a mask-wearing process rather than a hard work. Every time, you browse WebPages, scandals in politics, business, the entertainment circle and even on campus crowd into your eyes. Oh, what is the essence of human beings? What is the civilization to us? Do we need to look back at where we came from? Is it good or bad for us to speak out what we think and to do what the consciences demand us to? Are we wasting talents given by the mighty nature? Be an honest, straightforward, warmhearted, emotional and responsible man or be a shrewd, cold hearted and astute hypocrite? While embracing the "civilized" rubbish, we are losing those good virtues, which are the calls of the wild. Once we lose them, we are to lose ourselves, and we will get nowhere. I wish this dreadful thought is totally a fallacy, but, now, it is chilling me hard. One day when I happen to stand on the top of a grand mountain to observe a boundless prairie enveloped by the sapphire firmament and combed by gusts of the rhythmical west wind, a morning sun sprinkles me her warmth and brilliance in a graceful way, however, at that moment, I am afraid that I cannot appreciate these beauties, I am a lost " civilized man" then.

Please, please do not let come true while we are still able to answer the call of the wild.

第二篇：野性的呼唤读后感(两篇)

你可曾尝试倾听大自然的声音？呼呼的风声，嘀哒的雨声，还有那各式各样的动物、植物发出的声音。城市音箱里劲爆的音乐、马路上熙熙攘攘的汽车声早已将这些大自然中最原始的声音掩埋了，而最主要的是，我们的心早已经砌上了厚厚的隔音墙，隔开了那些天籁之音。

你可曾尝试过以一种认真地态度与一个动物沟通，倾听它地声音，感受它的感情？虽然越来越多的动物被人们豢养，当作宠物，可是，它们只是宠物而已，人们只是把它们当作一条招之即来、呼之即走的宠物而已，并没有平等、自由与沟通。

可是，杰克.伦敦却在《荒野的呼唤》中给我们塑造了巴克这样一只狗，它有思想，有感情，也有欲望。读过之后，不仅仅是新奇，更多的是震撼。平淡如一日的生活麻痹了我们的思维，在生活的海洋中随波逐流的我们需要这样一种震撼。

巴克最初是一只被豢养的狗，如今日的宠物狗一般，它的指责就是陪主人散散步、戏戏水、打打猎。它既遗传了它父亲－－－一只圣伯纳德种巨犬的威严和体重，也遗传了它母亲－－－－苏格兰牧羊犬的灵敏与机警。若不是贫贱的园丁因生活所困将它卖给了狗贩，也许，它的一生就如一般的宠物狗，平平淡淡。可是，事情却从它被卖出的一刻开始改变。

被卖出的巴克最初无法适应那颠簸、困难的环境，它想到反抗、挣扎逃脱，它想恢复从前平静、安逸的生活。一名红衣男子无情的棍棒给它上了它狗生的第一课：强者为王！是的，巴克在红衣男子的棍棒下学聪明了，它安静地服从了现实。

随即巴克被不断的出售。在给邮差佩劳服务的过程中，它显示了它极强的环境适应能力以及优异的领导能力。它的地位就在与斯匹次的斗争中逐渐巩固。

在与狗群一起劳动的过程中，巴克体内最原始的野性不断被唤醒，可是它自己却找不到方向。

我们看到人类的勾心斗角觉得疲倦，对争吵与打斗觉得残酷，可是，当这样的情形发生在一群狗身上的时候，我们才发觉，不只人类，每一个群体中间都存在这样一个生存法则，是的，这就是一个生存法则：“适者生存”“胜者为王”，人类社会，你争我夺，讲究“陈力就列，不能者止”，这是文明人生存的法则，而在动物界力，最直接的生存方式就是“弱肉强食”。巴克就是从最初被食的情况，一步一步积累经验，到了食的地位。它达到了“一耸毛”“一声低喉”就足以令周围的狗惧怕的地步。它领略到了作为一名胜利者的感觉，它感觉到它体内某种叫力量与野性的东西在慢慢复苏。

即使它在狗群里拥有至高无上的地位，可是它终究只是一条狗，一条被人类所奴役的狗，在人类面前，它只是一个畜生，没有关爱，没有地位，直到桑顿的出现。

桑顿最初也如其他人一样，不断地驱使着狗群在冰天雪地里拉着他们前行，知道他的同伴葬身冰湖中。或许是因为一无所有，桑顿更珍惜他现在所拥有的，同时也把利益之类的看淡了。他和巴克成了朋友，是的，朋友，一条狗和一个成为了朋友，不是怜惜、不是一

时兴起，而是在那危难的环境中结成了同志般的感情。巴克能感受到桑顿的感情，而桑顿也能从巴克默默凝视的眼睛中读出它的感情。

当他们抵达到一个大森林的时候，当巴克听到森林那边一声声狼号的时候，它感觉自己体内有种力量在被召唤，它觉得自己体内有种力量被唤醒，可是，因为有了桑顿这个朋友，因为有了感情的羁绊，巴克把这样一种召唤压抑着。直到有一天，它从森林中回来之后，发现桑顿被一群印第安人杀害，它体内的野性在那一刹那爆发。

它咬死了那群印第安人，随后，绝决地走入了森林，和着来自荒野中的呼唤，走入了狼群！

......

从最初的温驯到最后的“野蛮”，应该说是这个社会教会了它生存，若保持最初的服从与温驯，也许巴克早就死在了贩狗人残酷的棍棒下。我深深震撼于在它那温驯的表面下那不断被唤醒的本性。

透过动物之间血淋淋的争夺与打斗，我看到的是我们文明人之间“文明”的争斗。不计手段、不计后果，为了达到自己的目的而不惜争个头破血流。曾经我会鄙视这样的行为，可是，从现在开始，我不会，因为，在这个弱肉强食的世界，靠悲悯与施舍是不能生存的，要想给自己生存的空间，就必须争取，就必须让自己不断变强，必须拿出自己体内的本能来－－－－这就是杰克.伦敦告诉我们的生存的法则。

---------------------------------------

“在那冰天雪地的荒野中，他在艰难地前行，一步，又一步……狂风无情的向他席卷而来，冰雪划伤他的皮毛，一瞬间，雪被染得像红宝石般绚丽……”自从开始读《荒野的呼唤》后，这幅景象就经常在我脑海中闪现，究竟使他义无返顾去追求的是什么，我好奇的想知道答案。 这是美国作家杰克·伦敦早期的代表作之一。作品的场景是冰天雪地的阿拉斯加，时间是十九世纪末，而他的主角，是一条狗。

布克，是他的名字。也许看过这本书的人都会对他有这样的印象——他高大、勇敢、机智，而且充满激情与斗志，也很能适应环境，生存能力特强。同时，在他的身上原就流着狼的血液。

他原是法官米勒的爱犬，过着悠闲自得的生活。却不料被贫困的园丁卖给了狗贩子。从此，他的命运发生了翻天覆地的改变。新主人对他的侮辱和虐待，致使他一次又一次愤怒的反抗，而最后遭到的却总是一顿毒打。于是，在驯狗师的棒打下他开始渐渐懂得了“棍子的法则”。领悟了生存所必须接受的一些屈辱。

经过几次展转，他被带到寒冷的北极为那些挖寻金矿的人拉雪橇，不同与其他的狗，他很快学会了他的新工作，也适应了北极冰天雪地的生活。就这样，他开始在拉雪橇中感受活着的滋味。长此以往，他的肌肉锻炼得像铁。对一切痛苦处之泰然。他学会了在雪地睡觉，学会了乘主人不注意时偷吃同伙的鱼食。然而，他的威猛健壮，敏捷机智，注定了他与领导狗间的决斗已是在所难免。在那场惨烈的搏斗中，布克咬死了敌手，最终成了“成功的战士”。从

此他就取得了带头狗的位置，负起了领导者的责任。他马上以牙齿和利爪树立了自己的威信，让手下乖乖地驯服，他是个出色的领袖。

他们在零下五十度的严寒里几乎没有休息地往返奔驰着，终于精疲力尽，同伴相继死了好几位，而布克仍顽强地活着，布克和他的另一些同伴作为不中用的狗被低价转卖给了三个年轻的主人。这是三个被黄金潮卷入北极圈的新手。他们对黄金的梦想是炽热的，完全缺乏经验，自以为是，不能适应新的环境，踏上了注定是悲剧的一次远行。布克是这当中唯一的幸存者。同时他认识了他生命中唯一会牵挂的人类——那个名字叫约翰·宋顿的美国人。宋顿带着布克站在高坡上

，一起看到那三个人和那一群狗的灭亡。从此，布克对宋顿怀着敬爱。这爱是如此强烈，仿佛是可以为他而死，与宋顿的交往，是布克生命的重大转折。他在湍急的河流中冒着生命的危险救了落水的宋顿。又用不可思议的力量为宋顿赢得了一次巨额打赌的胜利。

然而来自森林那端的呼唤越来越吸引布克，这声音仿佛在召唤他的灵魂，使他不由自主地想前往，布克的野性也逐渐滋长。在这样的荒野中，他的狼的本性被一点一点地唤醒了。他经常听到狼的嗥叫--自由的呼唤，那对于他是一种几乎不可抗拒的吸引，但因为对宋顿的爱，使他暂时抵挡住了这种呼唤声的诱惑。

在一次离开宋顿的远行后，布克发现自己已永远地失去了这位朋友——宋顿他们被当地土人所害。布克发疯般地扑向土人，一个一个地撕咬他们……

“约翰·宋顿死了。最后的牵挂断了。人类和人类的权力，再也束缚不住他了。”他终于走进了狼群，和那些野兄弟并肩在雪原上自由地奔驰，唱着一只原始的年轻世界的歌，那就是狼群的歌……

读着这本书，可以深切的感受到作者对狗的生活、习性是那样熟悉，把他们的性格、内心活动刻画得那样真实可信，栩栩如生，达到了真实得令人惊异的程度。一如描写人--作者正是以“他”而不是以“它”来称谓这些狗的。

他们的生活和也侧面反映了人的生活。作者通过对布克的遭遇和命运的描写，显示了生存的艰难和生活的严酷，迫使人们进行无休止的斗争，在经历了各种磨难和挫折后，弱者只能落得一个悲惨的下场，只有强者才是生命的主宰者。

杰克·伦敦出生在一个破产的农民家庭里。他从幼年起就不得不出卖体力养活自己。做过童工、报童、水手，曾经还坐过监狱。他看到过最底层人们的悲惨的生涯。这使他强烈感受到社会的黑暗和残酷。他从这个人的世界里看到了兽的世界。而在《荒野的呼唤》中，他描写了兽的世界，事实上却是针对人的世界。通过了布克的遭遇和斗争历程，他歌颂了原始的强力、坚韧不拔的奋斗精神，歌颂了奔向自由的渴望，歌颂了强者和英雄主义。

在《荒野的呼唤》中，布克是一个胜利者，在广漠的雪原中自由地奔驰。而我们又何尝不能呢？有奋斗，有坚持，才能生存，才能换得永恒的自由。也许这正是杰克·伦敦所预示的答案--生存法则。
