1、精选优质文档-倾情为你奉上Orwells 1984外国语学院10英语B班 程志浩 29Question 1: What makes your wonder in this book? Why? What confuses you in this book? Besides Animal Farm, 1984 is the second novel of George Orwells I have read. Comparing with Animal Farm, 1984 is more political and more penetrating.In the novel, theres a

2、 sentence:” If there was hope, it lays in proles”. However, how about the proles? They are wild, and they are a wild power. Maybe the party cant control them, but it can regard them as animals and say:”Proles and animals are free!”When I read the book, what impresses me most is the superiority of th

3、e party. It is invincible. “Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past.” Nevertheless, it is the party who controls the present, that is to say, it controls everything anytime. It always makes up lies and changes the history to maintain its own status. What

4、s more, it doesnt give its members freedom. Even their marriages must have a recognized purpose which is to beget children for the service of the party. Besides, the party also wants to narrow the range of thoughts by using a new language called Newspeak.To be a member of such a party, he must be ve

5、ry sensitive. Every day even every minute, he is in the danger of being accused of conspiracies. For example, Winston-who believes nobody-always, thinks that people who are close to him must be a spy or an agent. Thus, he misunderstands Julia who is crazy about him. How silly he is!I am moved when J

6、ulia and Winston say they wont betray each other. Its hard for people to have a real love under that circumstance because the party will use all means to let them surrender!The last but not the least point I want to say is about truth. As we all know, two plus two makes four. Its a truth. But if the

7、 party says its five rather than four, then they have to follow it. Or else, they will bear the unbearable pain until they change the truth into a lie.So when reading this book, Im full of compassion in my heart. Meanwhile I feel lucky that I have such a promising future!Question 2: How do you pictu

8、re the author of this book? Why do you picture him or her in this way? Orwells writing career spanned nearly seventeen years. Ironically, although Orwell didnt consider himself a novelist, he wrote two of the most important literary masterpieces of the 20th century: Animal Farm and 1984. In Orwells

9、writing, he sought truth. Even his ction has elements of the world around him, of the wars and struggles that he witnessed, of the terrible nature of politics, and the terrible toll that totalitarianism takes on the human spirit. From the time he began to write at the age of twenty-four, Orwell long

10、ed to capture the struggles of “real” people, to live among the less fortunate, and to tell their stories. Of his own writing, Orwell has said that he writes because there is some kind of lie that he has to expose, some fact to which he wants to draw attention. Orwell certainly does this in 1984, a

11、novel fraught with political purpose, meaning, and warning. In Spain, Orwell found what he had been searching fora true socialist state. He joined the struggle against the Fascist party but had to ee when the group with which he was associated was falsely accused of secretly helping the Fascists. Sh

12、ortly after Orwell and Eileen adopted a son in 1944, Orwellbecame a war correspondent for the Observer in Paris and Cologne, Germany. Tragically, Eileen died in the beginning of that year, just before the publication of one of his most important novels, Animal Farm. Despitethe loss of his wife and h

13、is own battle with poor health, Orwell continued his writing and completed therevision of 1984 in 1948. It was published early the next year with great success.Question3: What was the author saying about life and livingthough this book? Explain. In the book 1984, we can see the Party always tried th

14、eir best to control the people fully. This policy gives the leader maximum rights, but the disadvantage is obvious too. People living under this policy will feel their lives are not true and feel they are only dolls that are handled by the country. They dont have the most important things as humans.

15、 That is personal consciousness, which is the way we judged whether the man is alive really. Without it, people are just piles of meat. This is an imagined style thought by the author of this book. Actually, this is a very good way to control the people. There are 3 countries in the book. They are O

16、ceania. Eurasia and Eastasia. However, the party uses Ministry of Truth to keep watch on every behavior of all the people. They made the members of the party frighten them all the time due to their number. Oceania takes the telescreen policy to control the people in the country. In the country, peop

17、le have no secrets with themselves. You can see the telescreen everywhere. Once you do something or just think something that is against the rule of party, you will be considered to have committed a crime and be arrested by the thought police. The author of the 1984 wanted to expose the nature of the totalitarianism in real life. 专心-专注-专业
