瓦爾登湖讀后感英文 篇1

　　Walden is a masterpiece written by Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)， who was born in Concord, Massachusetts.  The age he lived had witnessed the flourish of capitalism as well as the  prosperity of industrialization and urbanization. During the 19th century, the American economy developed at so fast rate that  most people were bound up in pursuing the material satisfaction , while ingored the spiritual life to a great extent. But Thoreau was quite different from other people, he disdained the modern civilization and attached  more importance to the spirit than the material. He thought many people of his time lived in a non-human-like modern society and many modern appliances, such as trains and telegraphs, had done harm to people's harmonious life peace and also broken the relationship between human and nature.

　　In order to prove that without the modern instruments , people can also live a happy life, in 1845, he moved into a cabin on the shore of Walden Pond and live there alone for two years to get close to the nature .Walden, is the famous book mainly talks about his life and thoughts during those days living in the woods .

　　Thoreau was so happy with the life living near the lake of Walden that he felt it a sweet grace to have the nature' accompany and even the sounds of rain and the sights around his house were full of sincere friendship. In his eyes, the nature was an intimate friend of him and all things in the nature were lively and vivacious.  And all kinds of animals in the wood, such as field mouses, robins and wild rabbits were amicably treated and regarded as his adorable companions. He even thought that plants were also had the right to live equal with human beings. Just because of this, he even blamed himself for hitting chestnut trees with stones. From many words or sentences, we can easily feel Thoreau's deep love and care towards nature.

　　Besides, Thoreau was a pioneering nature lover, who called on people to stop destorying nature but protect it by setting himself   an example to others. The consciousness of the environmental protection is becoming more and more important in our modern society, while the whole world is trapped in some serious ecological crisises resulting from hunting and killing animals, cutting down trees and polluting the rivers for pursuit of human beings' own interests. We  all have the common sense that the number of wildlife is decreasing, the area of lake is shrinking, and the water is not clear any more. What's worse, environment problems such as globe warming, climate change and air and water pollution are deteriorating during the commercial process . So it's high time that we should realize we never be the dominator of the whole world conquring nature, but should spare no efforts to improve the environment right away. That is, we should comply with the natural laws, make reasonable utilization of natural resources and keep the harmonious development between the society and the environment. Only in this way will we has an opportunity to embrace a bright future and achieve a sustainable society .

　　In the book, Walden, Thoreau not only advocated the protection of nature, but also encourage people to comprehend and return to nature. He told us using his own experience that by living a simple life close to nature, we human beings will find out the true value of life and significance of existence.

　　After reading the book, what impressed me most is the description of the fascinating scenery around the Walden pound, especially these sentences: "A lake is the landscape's most beautiful and expressive feature. It is earth's eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature. The fluviatile trees next the shore are the slender eyelashes which fringe it, and the wooded hills and cliffs around are its overhanging brows". To Thoreau, the Walden lake is like a charming and melting girl , who has slender eyelashes and likes to dress herself in different beautiful clothes with the changes of different seasons.

　　Every morning after getting up, Thoreau would have a bath in the Walden lake to start a new day. After that, he used to wander around the pond and refresh himself with the fresh air. In summer days , he cultivated a piece of land and growed beans, blackberries, johnsworts and the like. The depiction of his leisure rurality spontaneously reminds me of Tao Yuanming, the famous Chinese poet, who lived in the Jin Dynasty and made his life meaningful by  returning to the nature and perfecting himself. If Thoreau and Tao Yuanming lived in the same period and place, they would probably become best friends.

　　From the book, we know that during the years when Thoreau lived near the Walden, he did not completely isolate himself from the outside world. Sometimes he went to the town and did odd jobs and would receive visitors and friends in his cabin at times. As I mention before, the intention for his living in the woods was that he wanted to teach people how to live a simple life, achieve enjoyment from the nature, free oneself from the strained daily life and what is more important is to reevaluate the value of social life.

　　Thoreau's though of enjoying a simple life has a more realistic significance and have become a valuable spiritual wealth in our modern society. With the development of the material civilization, people's desires are swelling limitlessly and many people are busy with the pursuit of wealth and luxurious life by any means, including at the expense of nature. However, even in the society materially affluent and technologically advanced , people are not be more happier than those people who lived centuries ago, but even feel less satisfactory and complaint more about their present life as a result of having unbounded desires of getting more and better. Therefore, many people who possess a lat have become slaves of machine, working more but do not have the ability to enjoy what they have.

　　In the book Walden, Thoreau had realize this problem several hundreds ago. Thus, he set his mind to give a enlightenment to awake people and encourage them to live a simple life. His thoughts have great similarity  with the belief of our Chinese humanism, that is, the meaning of life lies in the sane and healthy enjoyment of a simple life. In fact, Thoreau and his teacher and friend Emerson praised highly on Confucianism and both them benefited a lot from it.  I am very happy to see the interlinked place between Chinese culture and western culture.

　　Reading this book is like having a tranquil steam flow through my heart, washing the dust in my mind. It teaches me how to keep a pure spirit in the complex society, set proper goals for my life as well as enjoy the endows of nature. In short, I feel it quite worthwhile to read the book Walden. I sincerely hope more and more people would like to read this book and receive benefits from it .

瓦爾登湖讀后感英文 篇3

　　尋找寧靜——讀《瓦爾登湖》有感

　　那兩年，時光像一條清澈的溪流在他的生命里留下深深的印記。

　　他永遠(yuǎn)不會忘記那些沐浴著冬日陽光的鋪滿松針的小徑，那些在清澈湖水里游弋的銀色鱒魚；那些恣意盛開的藍(lán)菖蒲，像冰藍(lán)的火焰轟轟烈烈地燃燒在短暫的花季：那些春末夏初時突然暈開了綠色的白樺，挺拔地朝向湛藍(lán)的天空：還有那道湖面上架起的神奇虹橋，那串掛在屋檐下的晶亮冰凌。當(dāng)然，他一定會記得在田埂上揮動鋤頭的日子里，汗水順著臉頰淌下，他看著它融進(jìn)土地，內(nèi)心生出滿足愉悅的情緒；在悠然蕩漾于湖面的午后，他伸手輕輕撥動碧綠的湖水，一只細(xì)長的蟲子擺著身子驚慌地跑開了。

　　梭羅，我念著他的名字，撫摩這本《瓦爾登湖》，感受到一種令人震驚又無比神奇的力量。世上竟有這樣一個人，他用兩年的光陰離群獨(dú)居，以證明人類實(shí)際上只需要最簡單的物質(zhì)資料即可過上正常而充實(shí)的生活。梭羅，他于簡單的生活里尋覓著寧靜，他心如明鏡，漣漪不起。這是一種返璞歸真的淡定從容，是一次思想崇高的涅槃。可是，這位哲人的名字如今還有多少人能夠記起？

　　或許，物欲橫流的當(dāng)今，人們已經(jīng)遺忘了阿卡德米學(xué)院的林蔭道上，亞里士多德和柏拉圖關(guān)于“世界是否真實(shí)？我們是否應(yīng)當(dāng)追尋現(xiàn)世的幸福”的爭論；人們也許不屑于“荒山野屋間二三素心之人培養(yǎng)之事”的成就境界；人們也許偶然聽到“悟已往之不諫，知來者之可追”時低頭一陣輕愁，終究還是匆匆而去。

　　是繁華的現(xiàn)代都市生活迷失了我們原本明澈的雙眼，是喧囂嘈雜覆蓋了樸實(shí)和諧的自然之音。燈紅酒綠的酒吧，人聲鼎沸的商場，不安的靈魂游走在寂寞的都市里。有人抱怨社會的殘酷，有人質(zhì)疑生活的意義，還有人忙碌地奔走，卻陷入更茫然的空虛。我們在紅塵里沉浮，找不到心靈棲息的港灣。心是何物？身是何物？為何眼前總有漫天塵埃？

　　茫然間，窗外有一陣清風(fēng)拂來，吹開桌頭《瓦爾登湖》的書頁。有一股油墨的芳香襲來，我一聲嘆息，仿佛這一聲嘆息可以減輕我思索不得的苦惱。低下頭，細(xì)細(xì)撫摩著右手粗糙的繭，恍惚中，才想起自己竟快過了十八個春秋了。為名次痛苦過，為富足得意過，卻終究未能參透生活的真諦。我望望馬路上行色匆匆的人們，準(zhǔn)不是在為更舒適的生活忍受著壓在肩上的沉重?fù)?dān)子？（范文網(wǎng) ）我們的眼睛總是看外界太多，關(guān)注心靈太少，所以，我們注定渾渾噩噩地走在路上，尋不得片刻寧靜。

　　一千多年前，一個人寫下這樣幾句偈語：“菩提本無樹，明鏡亦非臺。本來無一物，何處惹塵埃？”清峻的面容像是佛龕上盛開的白蓮，朗朗的聲音清泉般滋潤世人燥熱的心田。他就是中國禪宗道統(tǒng)繼承人第六代祖師慧能。若有這樣一份境界，縱然山崩海摧，沙起云行，總得一份超然清幽。縱使在霰雪無垠的冬季，縱使哲人的腳步聲已經(jīng)遠(yuǎn)去，我依然記得瓦爾登湖碧綠、深幽的平靜湖面。

瓦爾登湖讀后感英文 篇4

　　26個月的時間，不僅隔著文明與原始的距離，還橫亙了平靜與喧囂的對話。美國作家亨利·梭羅以沉思者的身份，隱居在他自己親手搭建的木屋中，在康橋德城的瓦爾登湖上，過著與世隔絕般的閑適生活——建房、開阡陌、種豆，“一蓑煙雨任平生”。

　　他說：“來到這片樹林僅僅是因為自己想過一種靜靜省察的生活，有時間去面對人生最本質(zhì)的問題。”瓦爾登湖很美，梭羅樂此不疲重復(fù)著單一的事情，釣魚、烘焙蛋糕、接受訪客;一天虔誠勞動休憩、閱讀。瓦爾登湖很美，晨昏下變幻的樹林，四季迥異的湖面，沼澤上低飛的鷹隼。那是青春女神赫柏經(jīng)過的伊甸園，即使經(jīng)歷凜冽、炎熱，仍不變春天漫溯的蹁躚。“若至春和景明，波瀾不驚，上下天光，一碧萬頃;沙鷗翔集，錦鱗游泳;岸芷汀蘭，郁郁青青。”在纖塵不染的美中，我們開始“省察”文明人需要鉛色冰冷的物質(zhì)世界。

　　“文明人走過的足跡，只留下一片荒涼。”原始與文明，隔了時間，隔了人本質(zhì)的遷途。在那個茹毛飲血的年代，人們敬畏它，愛護(hù)它;但在這個日日笙歌的年代，人類挑釁它、剝削它!這是一張在私欲中暴露的人類猙獰的面孔!“你侮辱著大地，居然還敢議論天堂。”梭羅憤懣地說，但盡管如此，瓦爾登湖仍在生長著，如同大自然寬恕了我們無節(jié)制的打擊，以強(qiáng)者的姿態(tài)，漠視了我們可笑的癲狂。

　　大自然的美是一種本返璞歸真后的自由。李太白懂這個道理，仕途失意流連祖國山河，一壺酒飲盡蜀道廬山白帝城;陶潛懂這個道理，傲骨不為三斗米折腰，隱居“中無雜樹，芳草鮮美”的桃花源;周莊懂這個道理，論魚夢蝶逍遙游，不爭世俗與天共生與物為一。

　　孟子曰：“數(shù)罟不入洿池，魚鱉不可勝食。”家中的長者說“靠山吃山，吃山養(yǎng)山。”自然的饋贈，是古人珍惜的，乃我們踐踏的，我們視如草芥的，將來人們視如珍寶。

　　大自然是貧匱而風(fēng)雅的智者，安之若素走過顛沛流離的歲月，被戰(zhàn)火、硝煙泯滅了模樣，卻依舊笑傲人間。而我們，要做仁者，仁慈寬厚對待環(huán)境，才能永存。

瓦爾登湖讀后感英文 篇5

　　夢，似真似幻，一如泡沫般易碎，又如鋼特般堅韌。我讀著梭羅的《瓦爾登湖》，體味著他的，自由之夢。

　　每個夢都是特別且唯一的。或許正是這一種特別，造就了《瓦爾登湖》。梭羅用他真摯的情感與純粹的初心來見證著、思考著這個社會，或許正是這顆純粹的初心和執(zhí)著的精神，展現(xiàn)了他與眾不同的一面。他那孩童般的好奇心與任性、輕蔑的態(tài)度，也讓我們看到了這個社會不同的一面。

　　他不愿意與這忙碌的社會有太多的交集，所以他跑到森林里去了。每天過著農(nóng)民般自給自足的生活，但是又不完全等同于農(nóng)民。他近乎虔誠的揮灑著汗水，過著隱士的生活，但他有大把大把的時間來研究這里的一草一木，來研究四季的更替，來思考!恰恰是這一生的思考，留下了太多太多。他的真理、他的頓悟、他的明朗，給后人留下了不朽的瑰寶，時刻警醒著世人：勿忘根本，勿忘!

　　梭羅曾說，致力于耕作時，我充滿了難以形容的自信，愉快地從事勞動對未來信心十足。雖然從事勞動學(xué)時辛勞的，伴著甘冽的泉水品味著成熟碩果，這滋味難以言述!但他不止于此，他還想播種真誠、真理、樸素、信心、單純等種子，這些珍惜的品質(zhì)，大都散失四方。一方面，他懇切地希望人與人之間少一點(diǎn)客套虛偽，停下忙碌的腳步善待這些珍貴之物。另一方面，他高昂著頭顱，以批判的態(tài)度審視著這個資本社會，充裕的時間給予了他思維的活性，他的思考深入人心、鞭辟入里，帶著對社會的批判，帶著對他夢想的執(zhí)著追求。

　　梭羅有一種與眾不同的追求，不同于城市人對金錢名利的執(zhí)著追求，而是一種更高級的生活，他將其稱之為——本能。像大多數(shù)人那樣的精神生活的本能，所以他閱讀、交流、思考，但同時還追求原始狀態(tài)和野性的本能，這是一種毫不掩飾的釋放自己，與大自然融為一體。他可以坐在樹下，安安靜靜地讀一本書，也可以坐在小船里揮舞著船槳擊打著水面，看碧波泠泠，聽回響不窮。他的真性情，絲毫不作為的處事，讓我隔著墨香四溢的紙張，透過近兩百年的光陰，也能清晰地感受到。

　　我最愛他的小詩：

　　“把你的視線轉(zhuǎn)向內(nèi)心

　　你會發(fā)現(xiàn)心中一千個未發(fā)現(xiàn)的地區(qū)

　　到這些地方去旅行

　　是自己成為家中宇宙學(xué)的專家”

　　有夢，沒什么辦不了，只要你愿意，太陽也可以因你而破曉。他，不拘于時，率真活潑，高傲又任性。他的散文，與之批判，更像是一場命中注定的追夢之旅。
