13、le they are! How bright and dangerous! You cannot escape from words.5.He gave them wings, and they flew like brightly Coloured birds around the room.Reflection When I begin to read the novel, I think that the novel is about homosexuality. However, after reading many pages, I have deep reflection on

14、it.At first, Dorian had an open,honest face. There were no dark secrets in that face. When the kind and gentle boy saw the picture of himself, he said he wished that he could always stay young and that the picture could grow old. When he had the idea, he decided to give anything for his youth. The w

15、ords that he said implied that Dorian began changing. In fact, Henry ruined Dorian with his brains gradually. In the novel, Henry symbolized the Dark Society, ruining peoples wills. But there still was a common person, an aesthete. From the novel we can get some information about Oscar Wildes aesthe

16、ticism. His idea was about “Art for arts sake”.Henry said something about youth to Dorian. He said:“that theres nothing more important, more valuable than beauty. When your youth goes, your beauty will go with it. Then youll suddenly discover that your life is emptythere will be nothing to enjoy, no

17、thing to hope for. Time is your energy. It will steal everything from you. People are afraid of themselves today. Afraid to live. But with your face and your youth, theres nothing that you cant do. You must live! Live the wonderful life that is in youth. We can never be young again. There is nothing

18、 in the world as important as youth.” From the words we can understand that aestheticism was popular at that time. Dorian pursed the youth or perfection from that on. Aestheticism ruined Dorian. From Dorians life, we can image that many aesthetes maybe have ugly hearts like Dorian.We learned many th

19、ings from the novel. And I understand there is no ideal person in the world. So we should not ask ourselves or other people to be ideal. Youth is important, which asks us to make use of it. However, its importance doesnt mean that we must keep youth exited. Beauty is not the most important. Even if youth is disappeared, we can still have eternal young heart. 本文版权归曼界森英书下载网所有
