He bought some cheap goods from London, and then went straight to Africa by sea to exchange valuables such as sand and ivory with local aborigines for huge profits. Seeing that it was profitable, he went to Africa again, but unfortunately he met pirates. He himself became a slave to the bandit leader. But he was good at observing faces and colors, and soon gained the trust of the robbers and relaxed his supervision. He took the opportunity to escape and took Zuo Li, the little black slave. After 0/0 days at sea, he was rescued by a ship bound for Brazil. After arriving in Brazil, he sold the little black slaves, bought a small manor and started the life of a manor owner. But he was not satisfied with mediocrity, and once again ventured out to sea to sell blacks in Africa. Bad luck this time, the ship hit a rock near South America and sank. Except for his narrow escape to climb the desert island, everyone else was buried in the belly of a fish. The island is deserted and there are no wild animals. He began a lonely life for 28 years.
Undaunted, he first made a raft and transported all the useful things on the sunken ship back to the island, including food, cloth for making sails, guns and ammunition, fresh water, wine, clothes and tools. He made a tent out of canvas and made a camp for himself. Then he began to survey the topography of the island. He chose a small cave under the hillside as a refuge. It took several months to expand the scale and made furniture such as tables and chairs with simple tools. In order to guard against wild animals, he set up a mechanism at the mouth of the cave, forming a "castle". After the arrangement, the ship's food and water are running out. He began to look for food and water again.
There are many wild goats on the desert island. Besides preying, he also raises them. By chance, the surplus grain in the bag loaded with feed on the ship grew green rice seedlings and wheat seedlings in the rainy season. He collects seeds in order to expand planting next year. On the other side of the island, he also found a fruit forest. He built a hut near the fruit forest as his "villa". The beach is also rich in products, with many turtles and birds. He catches them to improve nutrition. He caught another parrot and named it "Bohr". There are also several streams on the island that provide fresh water, and eating and drinking are basically guaranteed.
Robinson gradually began to manage agriculture and animal husbandry, and achieved great success. In the first year, he planted two barrels of rice and two barrels of barley. He ground the grain into flour and made a crock for cooking, so that he could eat bread. At the same time, he surrounded the island with a big wooden fence and gathered the sheep he caught. In this way, we not only eat mutton, but also drink goat's milk. He sewed himself a hat, a coat and an umbrella with sheepskin. He is self-reliant and has everything he needs in life. By the sixth year, he had built a canoe and dug a 6-foot-wide canal in two years and put the boat in a river half a mile away. He sailed the wooden boat and visited the island like a king, filled with pride.
One day a few years later, an accident finally appeared. A group of barbarians came across from another island and invaded his territory. They ate some prisoners and sang and danced. Robinson's heart is full of fear that he will be found and eaten. He found a very secluded cave as his new residence and set up various organs to protect himself. After such a long time, he has spent 23 years safely on the island. Soon, another group of cannibals came to the island. Robinson is determined to defend his territory. He picked up a gun and lurked nearby. Suddenly, a prisoner broke free from the rope and ran towards him, followed by some barbarians. Robinson shot and killed the chasing barbarian and saved the prisoner. It happened to be Friday, so he named the prisoner "Friday". From then on, "Friday" became his faithful servant and friend.
In less than a year, he learned Friday English. He told Robinson that all the killed 17 white people had been to the island where he lived. Robinson really wants to rescue them and return to civilized society with them. So, he and Friday built a canoe and prepared to set off. Just then, another group of barbarians came to the island with many prisoners, including a white man. He saved the white man and Friday's father. In this fierce battle, he and Friday killed and wounded 2 1 indigenous people with firearms and other weapons.
There are new residents on the island. Besides Friday's father, there is also the Spaniard. Robinson expanded the grain planting area, and sent Friday's father back to contact the Spaniards, ready to take the rest of the Spaniards to the island. Then, they can build a big ship together and sail for Brazil.
After Friday's father left, another thing happened on the island. A British merchant ship passing by the nearby waters began to fight. The mob on board hijacked the captain and the first mate and sailed a small boat to Robinson's island. They are going to throw the captain and the first mate on a desert island and then drive the merchant ship away. Robinson killed and dispersed the mob with Friday, rescued the captain and the first mate, and helped them recapture the merchant ship. So he didn't wait for Friday's father to come back with them, and decided to return to China by British merchant ship. Before leaving, he handed over the property on the island to two thugs he captured, because they committed the crime of hijacking merchant ships, and they could not go back to England to be hanged. Robinson told them how to live on the island and asked them to cooperate with the coming Spaniards to manage the island together.
1686, Robinson left the island he painstakingly managed and returned to his long-lost hometown with Friday. Well, he has been wandering for 35 years. When he returned home, he found that his parents had already passed away, leaving only two sisters and two nephews at home. He went to Brazil to see his plantation again and found that his loyal friend had been keeping money for him. Robinson is already a rich man with thousands of pounds in cash.
Robinson returned to England with Friday, got married and had three lovely children. A few years later, his wife died. In addition to his sadness, he rekindled his ambition to take risks. He went out to sea for business again, and his nephew was the captain. Their fleet sailed for east indies and China. When passing by the desert island where Robinson once lived, he found that many British and Spanish people had settled here. The people on the island are very prosperous and prosperous. Robinson left the island with satisfaction.
On the way to Brazil, some barbarians attacked his boat and killed Friday. Robinson set out from Brazil, detoured the Cape of Good Hope and came to the coast of China. The sailors on the ship participated in a harbor massacre, and Robinson severely reprimanded them. The sailors forced his nephew to send him to the coast of China. Robinson joined a caravan in China and returned to England via Siberia. Because he was not in England for most of 54 years, he lived happily for a period of time. But his adventurous personality made him ready to travel again. After this trip, he may never come back.
What is the charm of Robinson Crusoe? On the surface, it only attracts readers with its adventurous life plot, but the deeper meaning is that, as Alan, a British literary historian, thinks, the novel is a fable that contains everyone's life: "In the final analysis, each of us is lonely. Everyone has a lonely pain. Defoe symbolically described this loneliness: Robinson Crusoe and God were thrown on a desert island. So Robinson Crusoe is actually a fable describing the experiences and feelings of ordinary people. Because we are all Robinson Crusoe, it is human destiny to be as lonely as Robinson. " The whole article focuses on Robinson's overcoming many difficulties on a desert island through his own labor, and finally overcoming the harsh environment, which is the same as the aborigines on Friday.
What I admire most is not Robinson's diligence and courage, but his amazing psychological endurance. It is conceivable that a lonely living person, who has lived alone on a desert island for more than ten years, has no company, and it is impossible to even talk to a person for a while. There are no houses and rice fields on the whole desert island. He has to create a world by his own efforts.
In fact, Robinson is also an ordinary person, and he has no amazing skills to struggle for a long time in this bleak environment. But he resisted the blow and showed extraordinary psychological endurance. In order to regain his courage, Robinson wrote a huge difference table and analyzed all the possibilities. Whether it is out of negative or positive, it enables him to calm down, get rid of the days when he can only dream, and learn to look for hope from despair, so as to face the reality bravely and improve the status quo.
But compared with Robinson, our modern students' psychological endurance seems to be too poor. Don't say that you have experienced such hardships like Robinson, even some sesame-sized things will be easily knocked down by him. It is often learned from newspapers and TV that many students run away from home or even commit suicide every year, often because they quarrel with their parents, their exam results are not satisfactory, or they are severely criticized by teachers. Some people even hold the momentum of "dying". In fact, this is a manifestation of psychological fragility. How ridiculous and pathetic this is!
Robinson's image conforms to the spirit of British society in18th century. Robinson, eager for adventure and unwilling to lead a mediocre life, is a representative figure in the rising period of the bourgeoisie. After he was banished to a desert island, he encountered many seemingly insurmountable difficulties, but with strong perseverance and indomitable determination, he solved the problems of housing, food, tools and so on one by one and lived a comfortable life. He is very optimistic, full of fighting spirit and embodies the spirit of self-struggle. His creative work and achievements also reflect the infinite charm of human wisdom. Robinson is a bourgeois hero full of pioneering spirit, and also a colonial representative full of conquest desire and territorial expansion ambition. As soon as he established himself on the island, he put up a landing sign on the beach. In the relationship between him and Friday described later, Robinson's colonial image is more obvious. So Robinson Crusoe is an ode to the spirit of capitalist struggle and an attempt to legalize colonialism. The language of this work is plain and accurate. The excerpt of this chapter describes Robinson's process of settling on a desert island alone, which seems to be very difficult or even impossible. However, the author presents Robinson's process of building a house with precise and concrete details, which is very true and credible, and makes us feel that if we were in Robinson's position, it seems that we would do the same. No wonder later generations called Defoe "the father of English novels" and Robinson Crusoe "realism. Robinson was born in a middle-class family in England. Although his father hoped that he could earn a family business and live a self-disciplined life in his hometown by his own efforts, Robinson made an ambition to travel around the world from an early age. 165 1 year, he quietly left his hometown and started his first adventure.
He bought some cheap goods from London, and then went straight to Africa by sea to exchange valuables such as sand and ivory with local aborigines for huge profits. Seeing that it was profitable, he went to Africa again, but unfortunately he met pirates. He himself became a slave to the bandit leader. But he was good at observing faces and colors, and soon gained the trust of the robbers and relaxed his supervision. He took the opportunity to escape and took Zuo Li, the little black slave.

Thoughts on Reading Robinson Crusoe
Robinson Crusoe was written in the first person, giving people an indescribable sense of intimacy. I always seem to have a feeling of never getting tired of reading, because I like adventure, and from Robinson, I saw a unique spirit, which made me have an impulse to take risks and aroused my * * *.
Robinson, from York, England, is adventurous, determined and indomitable. For his own ideal, he insisted on sailing around the world despite his parents' opposition. He went to the sea several times, made some money, and perhaps learned some planting and management methods. Later, he drifted to this uninhabited island. He struggled with the barbarians. He saved Friday, and he built his own "home" with only some resources. He lived alone on the island for 35 years ... Friday was an aboriginal captured in a tribal war. Robinson saved his life, civilized him with western civilization, and finally became Robinson's loyal servant.
When he first set foot on the island, Robinson didn't have many sources of livelihood, but later he found his own big ship, which was broken by the waves and moved a lot of daily necessities from it, making life easier. Maybe god still has pity on him. Even so, Robinson worked hard. In order to prevent the attack of wild animals, he made great efforts in his own residence. In order not to starve to death, he relied on those small amounts of gunpowder to catch food ... all this is far from our present life. Our life can be said to have everything. If we leave me in such a desolate place, I will die in two days, let alone stay there for 35 years. Robinson's strength gave me motivation. I want to exercise my tenacious spirit and self-care ability on a desert island, but as long as there are no savage beasts.
