小说《苔丝》英文读后感 小说《苔丝》英文读后感 She was seduced by a so-called gentleman—Alec， and from then on her life totally changed from this loss of innocence。 People looked down on her and respected her no more。 Actually she did nothing wrong because before she was seduced she knew nothing of men。 She was just a girl when she first met that terrible man。 She was forced by the gossips and the church to blame herself for this accident， so she thought she deserved nothing good。 In order to get rid of the past she decided to go to a distant dairy farm but was still saying to herself that she was wrong。 Maybe God didn’t agree with that， because the Lord gave her someone she loved with her whole heart and life—Angel Chare。 Angel popped the question to her but she refused him without saying why。 She said she loved him deeply and perhaps no one in the world could love him more than she did but she could not marry him for some unspoken reason。 Angel wasn’t satisfied with this vague answer and did his best to win Tess。 Somehow she agreed and they soon fixed the wedding day。 Soon after their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked for Tess’s forgiveness。 Tess - 1 - was not at all angry and forgave Angel at once; in fact she was rather happy and excited for she also had things to confess。 She sat and told everything to Angel， hoping he would forgive her as he was forgiven but she was wrong。 She was not forgiven， not as she thought she was。 The woman pays。 Without Angel’s love， nothing meant anything to her。 The result wasn’t important now。 Tess was arrested for her murder of that so-called gentleman。 Why? She still loved Angel and when he finally went back to her and asked for HER forgiveness， after he regretted what he had done unfair to Tess， she was desperate。 That was too late—Alec had always told Tess that Angel would never come back so he won Tess’s trust。 Unluckily Angel did come back and found Tess。! Everything was too late! Tess was deceived and she lost Angel for the second time! The strengh of her love was so strong that she had forgotten the difference between right and wrong。 Before that she had done nothing wrong but when she killed Alec， everything really changed! She became a criminal! How could it be? She was as pure and innocent as the good wife in the Bible。 Her whole character was honest and faithful。 Angel figured out at last that a person should be judged not only on what he has done but also on what he wanted to do! - 2 - Tess didn’t want to be seduced by man and she had no power to defend herself so she lost her innocence and that’s all! Angel also did the wrong thing and it was even more serious than Tess’s crime but HE was not blamed for it。 Why it is always the woman who pays? Why they are always hurt? Why was Tess’s girlish purity lost? Why does the wrong man take the wrong woman? Why do the bad often ruin the good? Why is beauty damaged by ugliness? Women are too weak! Thousands of years of history have shown us that women have always been treated unfairly! - 3 - 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/b1dd01a11937f111f18583d049649b6648d70998.html
