Not attracted to its thoughts, but fascinated by its bland, rich emotions. Betis. According to her own growth process and her own imagination, Smith is like a rushing spring rushing to the poor people who live a solid life.
Although it is said that those who write novels and tell stories have routines, the protagonist sets goals - encounters obstacles - struggles hard - accidents - deviates from the goal - struggles again - and then returns to the end. There are even some who continue to let the protagonist suffer continuously, and the protagonist never gives up until he succeeds. In fact, I thought about it carefully, don't people constantly encounter various difficulties in life? My mother often said that you don't look at who is quite rich now, looking at the scenery, hey, his difficulties are also more, you see his children one by one to give him a breath of choking. People can't go well, and every family has its own unsatisfactory. People are bumping and bumping into life. In fact, isn't everyone's life a novel? Grit your teeth when you encounter difficulties, and think of a way to break through. Encounter difficulties again, work hard again, bravely face reality and live strongly.
"There's a Tree in Brooklyn" tells the ordinary life of the Fransey family stumbling. Although there is no special storyline or major or profound thoughts, it is full of true feelings and touching hearts. I particularly enjoyed writing about Francie and his brother Nyrey when they were young. Reading about their siblings, I think about my own childhood and youth.
When France was a child, her family was very poor, and the people in their family had little culture. France's mother, Katie, was influenced by her mother to teach her children to go to school and be educated. Francie is a smart, studious and sensitive little girl who observes the differences between people at every turn in her life. Rich people also have bad character and no morality, and poor people also have a very loving and responsible heart, what is it that makes people have such a big gap between people? She thought about it and found out that it was education. Different educations will make people's views and actions very different.
In fact, in our hometown, especially when I was young, the villagers knew that we must let our children receive as much education as possible, and going to college was the pride and dream of most parents. Occasionally look at the vibrato to see Bai Yansong said that in fact, reading is the best investment, the least investment is the most effective. I very much recognize the value of reading. In the past, it was said that the examination changed life, but now it is actually going to college to receive education to open up the distance between people. Reading won't make you monetize directly, but it will change the way people think, and it will enrich their brains. Knowledge indirectly affects a person, and people who are rich enough to some extent even have the ability to meet the future. For example, a stock speculator, he understands a variety of financial knowledge, understands the specific business, background, development prospects and other factors of a stock company, and can judge whether the stock will fall or rise. The reason why he can judge accurately almost every time is because he understands a lot of knowledge and has strong thinking logic and judgment and reasoning ability. And all this comes from his continuous learning.
Under the influence of her mother and grandmother, France felt that learning was very important, and she must become a knowledgeable person. She clings to every opportunity she can learn and never wastes a single moment of time. When she could go to school, she went to school, and when she couldn't go to school, she tried to study on her own. In the end, she overcame all kinds of difficulties and became the most cultured person in their family.
I've read a lot of novels, and I remember being super ignorant when I was a kid, and I couldn't compare with the people my age in the novels. The children in the novel, especially the children abroad, know a lot of knowledge from an early age, and their thinking is quick and responsive. I have now discovered that the children in the novel are indeed ordinary children in their lives. They grow up in different environments, contact with different things, see different things, and children know more.
The only thing I'm like is that Francie is also very frugal and can endure hardships. She and her brother used to collect scraps to sell for money, and when I was a kid, I used to pick up scraps to sell for money and we both enjoyed it. I don't feel a little ashamed and I'm proud to pick up scrap. At that time, the money I saved was arguably the richest of all the children. The tenacity of the human character honed in a life of suffering. I think what kind of living environment is not a problem, there is nothing wrong with encountering some trouble, this is all common sense.
France bravely accepted the reality in front of the majority of classmates and teachers, and accepted the "small luxury" of her choice, whether she lied or had the courage to admit the reality, I felt that she was brave and sincere. Poverty is not terrible, it is terrible to be defeated by poverty and lose self-esteem and fighting spirit. You should be proud to earn money from your own labor. Although it is impossible to achieve equality in the true sense of everyone, we must look up to ourselves and let ourselves have noble character and personality.
France's dad was a zero-hour singing earner who failed to cross the ego and accept reality. How can you show your talent without fighting? He silently sang in the street bar to earn some pocket money, but in his heart he felt that he should not live such a life. Get married early and have children, earn a little money to support your family. Slowly, he gave up his dreams, lost himself, and finally fell into drunkenness and could not extricate himself. Man, who wants to get ahead of the crowd, can't eat bitterly, how can he be a good person? Forcing yourself, constantly striving and persevering is it possible to succeed.
Regarding adolescent sex education, the book also indirectly explains through Francie's encounter. Chinese parents are ashamed to talk to their children about sex, especially avoiding sex topics, but the more children are curious about sex. Instead of letting the children take the risk of exploring on their own, parents should find opportunities to open up with their children. Knowing that curiosity is satisfied, I think most children will be disciplined and learn to protect themselves. Especially in today's society, it is best to help children popularize sexual knowledge as soon as possible.
When France came home from school, she was about to reach the door when a perverted naked body pounced on her. A 13-14-year-old girl, sexual budding, but vague suddenly thrown by the man naked, scared to death. The man's penis also touched France's leg, and in that instant, France eased up and struggled desperately, and France's mother suddenly ran out and took a gun and knocked down the perverted man in time to save her daughter. Unable to accept it afterwards, Francie wanted to cut off her leg with a knife. Her father took a disinfectant to wash her legs, which nearly burned France. The father was too anxious to protect his daughter, and the medicine was too large for France to have a mild burn on her leg, but fortunately it was stopped in time by the medical staff who arrived.
The doctor and the police patiently communicated with Francie and told her to go get a good night's sleep, it was just a nightmare. France couldn't believe it was true, and she convinced herself that it was just a nightmare.
France felt that her father loved her more, but her father eventually fell drunk and fell ill. One day she asked her mother, and she felt that her mother loved her brother more. Can parents really level a bowl of water? The answer is no. But the most loving person in the world is his parents. She and her mother are open-minded, and often the children communicate and share with their mothers when they have something on their minds, and I think Katie is their best mother.
Katie is particularly beautiful, with a pair of beautiful hands that are constantly trying to do all kinds of cleaning work every day to support the children. A police officer is very caring and self-motivated and falls in love with Katie. After the officer's wife fell ill and died, Katie graciously agreed to marry him. His family conditions are very good, and Katie is very self-respecting and strong in supporting the family by making money on her own. Don't eat what comes from you, her motto. She loved him before marrying him. Since then, Katie's family has lived a happy and happy life. France could also go to college smoothly.
The whole story is very simple and ordinary, but it is both touching and motivating to read, to be self-motivated, to struggle, and to have self-respect!
