During the summer vacation, I read one of the most famous novels by the famous French short story master Maupassant - "My Uncle Jules". It brought me great inspiration. The following is I bring you a review of My Uncle Jules, I hope you like it.
Thoughts after reading My Uncle Jules 1
After reading the short story "My Uncle Jules" written by the famous French writer Maupassant, my heart could not calm down for a long time. The novel mainly describes the different attitudes of the Philips and his wife towards their biological brother, "my" uncle, for money: when his uncle spent all his money and took his father's money as his own, the Philips and his wife hated him very much. Call him a bad guy and a hooligan. When uncle Jules became a rich man and said that he would compensate his father for his losses, both Philip and his wife attached great importance to him and wanted to curry favor with him. They regarded him as a "lucky star" and were eager for his arrival. When the Philips knew that he had become a pauper again, his parents despised him and abandoned him.
The Philips are really snobbish, and they can go to the point of going crazy for money. They are not human beings at all. Even animals know how to protect their loved ones, yet they actually despise him and abandon him. For money, they can abandon their brothers and refuse to give him a tear of sympathy.
Let me tell you a story: Once upon a time, there was a rich man, and some people wanted to kill him and take his money as their own. One day, the rich man fled to a hotel. Because his clothes were in tatters, the hotel waiter spoke coldly to him. When he took out the money, the hotel waiter immediately apologized and admitted his mistake and did not dare to neglect.
When he was together, he despised him and refused to recognize him as a relative. This has no conscience at all.
We should celebrate our society. If everyone in our lives is full of love, there will be the light of love everywhere. Some people sacrifice their lives for the honor and disgrace of the motherland, some people donate generously to help the poor and weak, and some people give silently. I believe that with the spring breeze, our tomorrow will be even better.
My Uncle Yu Le's Reading Thoughts 2
There was a time when I thought: "The moon in foreign countries is more round than the moon in China." Since I read "My Uncle Yu Le" by French writer Maupassant, After "Le", my thoughts turned over. This novel is like a long mirror, clearly showing the ferocious face of capitalist society and making me understand the evil nature of this society.
The novel "My Uncle Jules" tells the story of Philip's family, who initially hated and resented Jules, then later heard that Jules was rich, then liked and respected him, until when Jules became impoverished. And abandoned his story, ruthlessly exposing the naked money relationship between people in capitalist society layer by layer, showing the five evil aspects of capitalist society.
In the novel, the writer used a pungent way of satirizing the Philips for being stingy, disliking poverty and loving wealth. When Yule spent the inheritance he deserved and greatly occupied Philip's share, they regarded him as a "bastard" and a "rogue"; when Yule was forced to run away and make some money overseas , they immediately had high hopes for Yule, and even went to the beach every week to wait for Yule to come back, in order to get some sweetness from him; but when they discovered that Yule not only did not become a rich man.
When they were reduced to male vendors, the philistine appearance of Philip and his wife was completely ruined. Even the kind-hearted Joseph gave Jules ten more coppers out of sympathy and was punished by Clarice. Scolding: "You are absolutely crazy! Give ten coppers... to this gangster!" Finally, they quietly left Yule.
How clear and penetrating this mirror is! It reflects the souls of Philip and his wife, and even more, the "true face" of capitalism.
A century later, what is the state of today's capitalist society? I heard about this: In the United States, a child lost a huge sum of $10,000 and returned it to the owner.
But not only did he not receive praise from society, but he was named "the most handsome man" in an event to select "some of the most...". The reason is that the stolen money should belong to you, otherwise it should be returned to the owner. This is simply ridiculous! However, it is a fact! This fully proves that "people who do not serve themselves will be punished by heaven and earth" and "money comes first" are the natural principles of capitalist society. Whether it is the “old” sense of capitalism or the “new” sense of capitalism, there are no exceptions.
My Uncle Yule's Reading Thoughts 3
In this article, "my uncle" Yule has money, and our whole family hopes that he will return soon and be able to provide " We” bring happiness and luxurious life.
But one trip, when "we" saw him on the boat, he did not make any fortune, but was an old and poor old sailor selling oysters. "Father" and "Mother", however, avoided him as much as possible as if they were encountering the god of plague. The reason? Because he has no money.
Think about it from another perspective. Did Yule really not recognize his nephew? Did he really not recognize that the person who bought his oysters was his brother? The answer is no, he must have recognized it. Because he knew that he had made many mistakes in the past and was embarrassed to admit to him.
Think about it again, why didn’t Yule return to his hometown? The answer can be learned from the captain: “It is said that he still has relatives in Harvar, but he is unwilling to return to them. Because he owes them money..." In this way, Yule has changed from the "gangster" before to the "old man selling oysters" who now understands that money is hard-earned and has gone through many vicissitudes. At least he understands the need to be self-reliant. .
But Clarisse saw that he had no money at the moment, and was afraid that he would come back to eat their money. This shows that "my mother" is a city woman who is greedy for money. And "my father" Philip was as "unforgiving" as his mother, and they decided that "my uncle" had no future in this life.
If I were Clarisse, I would also recognize my brother, because it is inevitable for people to make mistakes, and if they can correct their mistakes, it is also a precious asset, and we should forgive him; if I were Philip, No matter how poor or gangster my brother is, I will still recognize him. After all, the family ties that are thicker than water will never fade.
My Uncle Jüle Reading Thoughts 4
The story tells that "I" was born in a poor family, and my parents' wages were also very meager. There are two sisters at home, so Uncle Yule went to other places to do business in order to reduce the burden on the family. And, I heard, he also made a fortune. Therefore, we waited anxiously for his return to lighten the burden. But even after waiting for a long time, he never came back. As time went by, our lives improved and we started traveling. Unexpectedly, he accidentally met his uncle who had not returned for a long time. At this time, he turned out to be a dirty old sailor selling oysters in ragged clothes. Our parents were afraid that he would cause us trouble, so they took us away and lost contact with our uncle.
In fact, the content is easy to understand, but it makes people ponder, do you put money first and ignore family ties? The parents of the protagonist of this article, when they learned that their uncle was rich , I missed my uncle very much, but when I learned that my uncle was penniless and poor, I had a different attitude - I thought he was causing trouble. One is the temptation of money, and the other is the warmth of family affection. In this important choice, the protagonist's parents chose the former. Although their lives have improved, they have lost the most precious thing in the world. I couldn't help but think of a famous saying: "Currency can bring all kinds of incompatible people closer together, and force incompatible people to kiss each other."
After seeing what happened to poor uncle Yule, we felt even more sympathy. , but at the same time we also feel sad. Because, maybe, soon, in this world, money will truly rule people, while family love will be ignored.
My Uncle Jules Reading Thoughts 5
Relatives are one of the most important people in our lives. They encourage us when we succeed and comfort us when we fail. However, in the face of money, many people are very indifferent to their loved ones and ignore their usual affection. Maupassant, the king of short stories, embodies this point with "My Uncle Jules".
Joseph lived in a not wealthy family in Havel. He had an uncle named Yule. Yule was once a prodigal son who lost a lot of money in his family. One day, he sent a letter home, saying that he had opened a big company in the United States and was going to pay back all the money he owed Joseph's father. This caused the family's attitude towards him to turn 180 degrees, saying that he was kind-hearted and capable. However, things are unpredictable. One day, Joseph's father took his family on a boat trip to Jersay Island. On the boat, when Joseph's father was buying oysters for his daughter and son-in-law, he accidentally discovered that the oyster seller was his younger brother - the younger brother who claimed to be rich! That kind brother! But now he is an oyster seller Sailor! So Yule became a scoundrel and a bad guy in the hearts of his family.
After reading this novel, I understand: First of all, family members are more important than money. Although money can bring us good living conditions and material enjoyment, it cannot bring or replace family love. Relatives are one of the most important people in our lives. They will help us when we are most frustrated and bless us when we are most successful. Family love is like the sun, warm and brings you infinite warmth. Therefore, we must cherish family ties and be indifferent to money.
Secondly, the amount of money should not be a weight to measure the closeness of family. The attitude of Joseph's family towards Le is related to the amount of money he has. They have been hoping that Yule can make a lot of money and pay back the money they owe them. When Yule said he was rich, they thought he was a good and capable man; when they found out that Yule was a pauper, they said he was a scoundrel and a bad guy. When a loved one succeeds, we should bless him and encourage him instead of asking for it; when a loved one fails, we should help him and comfort him instead of ridicule him.
