Robinson Crusoe is a youth of about eighteen years old who resides in Hull, England. Although his father wishes him to become a lawyer, Crusoe dreams of going on sea voyages. He disregards the fact that his two older brothers are gone because of their need for adventure. His father cautions that a middle-class existence is the most stable. Robinson ignores him. When his parents refuse to let him take at least one journey, he runs away with a friend and secures free passage to London. Misfortune begins immediately, in the form of rough weather. The ship is forced to land at Yarmouth. When Crusoe's friend learns the circumstances under which he left his family, he becomes angry and tells him that he should have never come to the sea. They part, and Crusoe makes his way to London via land. He thinks briefly about going home, but cannot stand to be humiliated. He manages to find another voyage headed to Guiana. Once there, he wants to become a trader. On the way, the ship is attacked by Turkish pirates, who bring the crew and passengers into the Moorish port of Sallee. Robinson is made a slave. For two years he plans an escape. An opportunity is presented when he is sent out with two Moorish youths to go fishing. Crusoe throws one overboard, and tells the other one, called Xury, that he may stay if he is faithful. They anchor on what appears to be uninhabited land. Soon they see that black people live there. These natives are very friendly to Crusoe and Xury. At one point, the two see a Portuguese ship in the distance. They manage to paddle after it and get the attention of those on board. The captain is kind and says he will take them aboard for free and bring them to Brazil.

Robinson goes to Brazil and leaves Xury with the captain. The captain and a widow in England are Crusoe's financial guardians. In the new country, Robinson observes that much wealth comes from plantations. He resolves to buy one for himself. After a few years, he has some partners, and they are all doing very well financially. Crusoe is presented with a new proposition: to begin a trading business. These men want to trade slaves, and they want Robinson to be the master of the tradepost. Although he knows he has enough money, Crusoe decides to make the voyage. A terrible shipwreck occurs and Robinson is the only survivor. He manages to make it to the shore of an island.

Robinson remains on the island for twenty-seven years. He is able to take many provisions from the ship. In that time, he recreates his English life, building homes, necessities, learning how to cook, raise goats and crops. He is at first very miserable, but embraces religion as a balm for his unhappiness. He is able to convince himself that he lives a much better life here than he did in

Europe--much more simple, much less wicked. He comes to appreciate his sovereignty over the entire island. One time he tries to use a boat to explore the rest of the island, but he is almost swept away, and does not make the attempt again. He has pets whom he treats as subjects. There is no appearance of man until about 15 years into his stay. He sees a footprint, and later observes cannibalistic savages eating prisoners. They don't live on the island; they come in canoes from a mainland not too far away. Robinson is filled with outrage, and resolves to save the prisoners the next time these savages appear. Some years later they return. Using his guns, Crusoe scares them away and saves a young savage whom he names Friday.

Friday is extremely grateful and becomes Robinson's devoted servant. He learns some English and takes on the Christian religion. For some years the two live happily. Then, another ship of savages arrives with three prisoners. Together Crusoe and Friday are able to save two of them. One is a Spaniard; the other is Friday's father. Their reunion is very joyous. Both have come from the mainland close by. After a few months, they leave to bring back the rest of the Spaniard's men. Crusoe is happy that his island is being peopled. Before the Spaniard and Friday's father can return, a boat of European men comes ashore. There are three prisoners. While most of the men are exploring the island, Crusoe learns from one that he is the captain of a ship whose crew mutinied. Robinson says he will help them as long as they leave the authority of the island in his hands, and as long as they promise to take Friday and himself to England for free. The agreement is made. Together this little army manages to capture the rest of the crew and retake the captain's ship. Friday and Robinson are taken to England. Even though Crusoe has been gone thirty-five years, he finds that his plantations have done well and he is very wealthy. He gives money to the Portuguese captain and the widow who were so kind to him. He returns to the English countryside and settles there, marrying and having three children. When his wife dies, he once more goes to the sea.

第二篇：读书笔记-鲁滨孙漂流记

《鲁宾逊漂流记》读书笔记

英国小说家笛福的《鲁滨逊漂流记》描述了主人公漂流海岛,战胜困难,艰苦创业的传奇故事。小说写得真实自然,富有传奇色彩。主人公在孤岛上种庄稼,搭木屋,吃了千辛万苦,生存下来。但想回人间的心切,使他着迷般地只想到如何走出这个鬼地方,结果还是失败了,最后于1868年回到阔别28年的英国。 翻开书的第一页:“谨以此书奉献给那些时时处处依赖父母,依赖学校的青少年朋友们。”当我从扉页上读到这句话的时候,便对这本书产生了一种莫名的反感。任性,娇气,依赖性强而动手能力差,这的确是我们绝大多数人的缺点。但我们不甘心承认这些,我们不也希望做得更好吗?可为什么,周围的人总要给我们戴上这顶"“帽子”呢?

当我郑重地翻过最后一页,读完了这个情节曲折,跌宕起伏的故事之时,我想我真的被震憾了,那是一种心灵上的震动。一个个问号不由地萦绕在我的心头,如果我是鲁宾逊??

如果我是他,当船在暴风雨中失事的时候,我会像他那样不向命运低头继续远航吗?不,如果可以选择的话,我不会去接受那充满困难和挫折的生活,因为我没有那份自信。

如果我是他,当独自一人置身于荒岛之上,叫天天不应,叫地地不灵时,我会像他那样不自暴自弃,重燃生的希望吗?不,面对突如其来的灾难,我不可能像他那样因时顺变,积极自救,因为我没有那种能力。

如果我是他,当看到野人用自己的同类开宴会时,我会像他那样勇敢地站起来,在仅有一个助手的情况下同他们搏斗吗?不,我宁可躲得远远的,祈祷他们永远不要发现我,因为我没有那种胆量。

我不得不承认自己的软弱与无能.从呱呱坠地到背上书包,父母,学校为我们铺设了成长的道路。我心安理得地在这条平坦的大道上走过了一年又一年,没有挫折,没有风浪,而我还整天抱怨这个,抱怨那个。其实我根本没有咀嚼过生活中的苦涩,我是幸福的。然而幸福中的我根本没有意识到能吃饱穿暖,背上书包去上学,每天接受家人们的关爱,社会的关注是一种莫大的快乐。

我们需要具备鲁滨逊那样的刻苦奋斗的精神。 在他认为,天底下没有什么人类克服不了的困难,只要人类充分利用自己的智慧与双手,一切难题都将迎刃而解。我们学习也一样,必须相信自己有能力把各个学科学好,这样在学习过程中才会有一股动力不断促使我们前进.同时,还必须在做好每一件事后力求精益求精。 “一本好书能拯救一个人。”现在我百分之百相信这句话.这287页向我展示了鲁宾逊自信,自立,自尊,自强,永不满足,不甘平庸的精神;告诉我鲁宾逊靠自己的诚实,善良,智慧和坚毅,去创建,去开拓。他的精神值得我们学习!

我又联想起我国明代史学家谈迁，三十年努力撰写的书稿《国榷》，一夜之间化为乌有，可谈迁还是不灰心，重新写就新的书稿。

如今，鲁宾逊已成为千万读者心目中的hero，我想，他们的成功，在于他们所拥有的坚定的信念。只要有厄运打不垮的信念，希望之光就会驱散绝望之云。 生命为什么不就是一只小船呢？如果怕失败，怕风浪，怕波涛，怕打击，那就永远呆在港湾里吧，做他人的点缀。但是，你是否能够找到自己生存的价值？活着，就是一种冒险，生活，将很难找到属于你自己的港湾。

在西方，有一部小说，18世纪欧洲最杰出的思想家卢梭曾建议每个成长中

的青少年，尤其是男孩子都应该读读他。那么，这是一本怎样的书哪？ 这本书叫《鲁宾逊漂流记》。故事并不复杂：出身于商人之家的鲁宾逊，不甘于像父辈那样，平庸的过一辈子，一心向往着充满冒险与挑战的海外生活，于是毅然舍弃安逸舒适的生活，私自离家出海航行，去实现遨游世界的梦想，但每次都历尽艰险。有一次风暴将船只打翻，鲁宾逊一个人被海浪抛到一座荒无人烟的海岛上，在那里度过了28年孤独的时光。小说的主要部分就是对他这段荒岛生活的生动记述。

除了精彩离奇的故事外，小说最吸引人的地方就是鲁宾逊的性格。他敢于冒险，敢于追求自由自在，无拘无束的生活。即使流落荒岛，也决不气馁。在荒无人烟，缺乏最基本的生活条件的小岛上，他孤身一人，克服了许许多多常人无法想象的困难。以惊人的毅力顽强地活了下来。没有房子，他自己搭建。没有食物，他尝试着打猎，种谷子，训养山羊，晒野葡萄干，他还自己摸索着做桌椅，做陶器，用围巾晒面做面包。在岛上的第24年，他还搭救了一个野人。给他取名为“星期五”。在他的教育下，“星期五”成了一个忠实的奴仆。就这样，鲁宾逊在荒岛上建立了自己的物质和精神的王国。面对人生困境，鲁宾逊的所作所为，显示了一个硬汉子的坚毅性格和英雄本色。体现了资产阶级上升时期的创造精神和开拓精神。现在，在西方，“鲁宾逊”已经成为冒险家的代名词和千千万万读者心目中的英雄。

《鲁宾逊漂流记》之所以成为文学史上不朽的名著，还在于它的真实性和不凡的艺术表现力。在他之前，欧洲的长篇小说大都是以帝王将相的业绩或骑士美女的浪漫传奇为主要内容的。笛福开始尝试用日常语言来描写普通人的生活。小说虽是一个虚构的故事，但对鲁宾逊荒岛生活的描写逼真而自然，表现了作者非凡的形象力和艺术表现力。此外，小说通篇采用第一人称的叙述方式，语言明白晓畅，朴素生动，这一切给作品增添了不少魅力。
