《格列佛游记》是英国著名讽刺作家江奈生〃斯威夫特写的。它描写了航海家格列佛，在四个不同的国度，所遇上的奇闻异事，从而讽刺当时的英国。
《格列佛游记》的第一卷是格列佛在海上航行，覆舟遇险，最后在小人国，被那儿的人们所救。顾名思义，小人国国家的人只有不到6英寸。虽然他们只有不到6英寸的身高，但是，格列佛却答应了他们几个条件才重获自由。再后来，格列佛为这个国家出谋划策，做了许多大事，可却在小人国的敌国上，才返回了自己的祖国。小人国实际上就是当时英国的缩影，作者嘲笑了英国两政党的争论，英法之争，又讽刺了当时英国政府的腐败。
《格列佛游记》的第二卷是格列佛再次在大海上航行，又遇风浪，在大人国靠岸。那里的人们十分高大，而格列佛自己仿佛像在小人国里的人一样矮小。而他由于会讲话、思考，得到了大人国女王的重视，细心地照料着他，后在一个大箱子里漂流在海上，被海上的船只救起，再次返回了英国。这卷阐述了作者的政治思想，他提出了自己理想中的开明君主，不过，这卷还是以对英国统治阶级的批判为主。
《格列佛游记》的第三卷是格列佛三次在海上航行，为海盗劫走，他到达一座小岛，被接入勒皮他。讲的是格列佛在飞岛上的
所见所闻，对飞岛脱离现实的科给予了强烈的讽刺。最后，格列佛离开了拉格奈格，乘船到日本去。他又从那儿乘荷兰船到阿姆斯特丹，再从阿姆斯特丹回到了英国。
《格列佛游记》的最后一卷是格列佛漂到了马国，马国的统治者是“慧骃”，而“耶胡”是“慧骃”的奴隶。“慧骃”是世间一切美好事物聚集在一起的物种，而“耶胡”却是世间一切丑陋、黑暗事物聚集在一起的物种。作者通过写“耶胡”和“慧骃”的对比来揭露法国统治集团的罪恶和社会恶习。
《格列佛游记》是一篇对人性的讨论。我觉的作者把自己对英国现状的不满都暗写在了这本书里，通过对比，批判，讽刺了当时的英国！
《格列佛游记》是一本很值得大家仔细品读的书！

Abstract
1. The country round appear like a continued garden; and the enclosed fields, which were generally forty feet square , resembled so beds of flowers . These fields were intermingled with woods of half a stag , and the tallest trees , as I could judge , appeared to be seven feet . I viewed the town on my left hand , which looked the painted scene of a city in a theatre.
2. However I made a shift to creep on all four , and shelter myself , by lying flat on my face on the lee-side of a border of lemon thyme , but so bruised from head to foot , that I could not go abroad in ten days.
3. Add to all this , the pleasure of seeing the various
revolution of states and empires; the changes in the lower and upper world
4. Doubting or not believing, are so little known in this country , that the inhabitants cannot tell how to behave themselves under such circumstances .
5. In the trial of persons accused for crimes against the State , the method is much more short and commendable : the judge sends to second the disposition of those in power ; after which he can easily hang or save the criminal , strictly persevering all forms of low.
Recently I read a book called Gulliver’s Travels. In the book, Gulliver came across many wonderful experiences. He went to some isolated societies where he met different kinds of creatures .
Rebellion as Gulliver was , he was unwilling to follow in his father’s step, to be a famous doctor . What he liked was to travel and adventure at the sea .By a chance , he found a job on a ship , then he began his adventure. Unfortunately, the ship ran into a strong
storm ,and all the people sunk into the water. Another day , Gulliver came to himself on a beach . However , to his surprise , he was tied down to the ground with small ropes, a lot of tiny person walking around him. Later he knew that this country was called Lilliput . After Gulliver’s endeavor , citizens in this country began to like him. What’s more , he acquainted himself with the king and some officials. In the meanwhile , Gulliver helped to defeat the enemy , put off a big fire , teach the tiny people.
However , Gulliver’s second adventure happened in a giant country . In this country , was much bigger than Gulliver had met. Certainty this bring damager to him. At first he nearly became the child’s dessert , then one night , he got into trouble again . He defeated two enormous rats only with his tiny sword. In the following days Gulliver lived under a frightened life , for every creature here could threat his life. Different from the former countries , Gulliver entered a country at his third adventure, where horses were the directors , the creatures similar to men were severed as slaves…
I spent many weeks finishing the book. The plot
attracted me so much that that I can clearly remember the story when I close the book. What’s more, through the knowledge of the author’s background ,I also learn a lot under the words. For instance , the plot that the tiny people break out a war just for a ridiculous reason reflects on the reality . At that age ,people who had power and wealth tried to gain whatever they want without thinking of other’s feelings. Besides, this book reveals people’s evil character. The creatures in Houyhnhnms is the epitome of people who are cruel, crazy and inferior. As far as I am concerned, if man continue to behave like today , maybe in the future , other high creatures will appear, like the giant ,the horse in the book, to direct the world ,at that time man suffer misery what they had ever composed on others.
