钢铁是怎样炼成的每章概括50字
by WangYaHui T here is a dream,rooted deeply in every American,from the very beginning of the MayFlower,that the great great grandfathers of all Americans had been contemplating and eking,and of all Americans that has been written in the cond ntence of the United States Declaration of Independence which states that "all men are created equal" and that they are "endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable Rights" including "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness."The American Drea m , is a belief that as long as the United States after a hard struggle will be able to achieve the ideal of a better life, that is, people have to work through their own hard work, courage, creativity and determination to move towards Prosperity, rather than rely on specific social class and other assistance. This is usually on behalf of the people in the economic success or entrepreneurial spirit.
Yet, the dream has already became a nightmare,that in the money-orienting, power-persuing minds springing up since the Industry Revolution,Americans have fallen in,not only the way of life through which Americans rifling for more luxurious enjoyment, but the morality of heart that they persued prosperity with all costs of which they were oblivious.
Luckly,we had people who saw the reality much more clearly than the blind mass,while tho were considered Critics of sorts.They pointed out that many versions of the dream equate prosperity with happiness, and that happiness may not always be that simple. The critics suggest that the American Dream may always remain tantalizingly out of reach for some Americans, making it more like a cruel joke than a genuine dream. Fitzgerald was one of them who went the first step that American fiction has taken since Henry James, becau he depicted the extolled grandest and most boisterous, reckless and merry-making scene(T．S．Elliot).

渴>剪刀手爱德华结局parties were fashionable, but pointless. It was only a show-off of Gatsby’s riches and material success. The crowds hardly knew their host; many came and went without invitation. The music, the laughter and the faces, all blurred as one confud mass, showed the purpolessness and the loneliness of the party-goers beneath their marks of relaxation and joviality. All this was typical of “the Jazz Age”, when many people lost belief in American dream and indulge themlves in drinking and dancing. The great expectations which the first ttlement of the American continent brings vanish, and so despair and doom t in.In his blue gardens, men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars….On week-ends his Rolls-Royce became an omnibus, bearing parties to and from the city between nine in the morning and long past midnight, while his station wagon scampered like a brisk yellow bug to meet all trains. And on Mondays eight rvants, including an extra gardener, toiled all day with mops and scrubbing-brushes and hammers and garden-shears, repairing the ravages of the night before.
“Every Friday five crates of oranges and lemons arrived from a fruiterer in New
York----every Monday the same oranges and lemons left his back door in a pyramid of pulpless halves.” (Chapter 3, 52)
The exavagent life, the noisy people constitute Gatsby’s parties. However, the depiction of the fashionable and meaningless parties rved to highlight Gatsby’s tragedy by contrasting the grandeur of his party with his violent death, with the frustration of his dream. Gatsby’s funeral was rather derted and cheerless compared with his parties. It’s a record of human coldness. Nick had invited some people to come to Gatsby’s funeral. The people were all Gatsby’s so-called friends. They found a lot of excus for their abnce becau they knew clearly that Gatsby was no longer uful for them. Gatsby’s generous parties had not brought him even one friend. What’s more, Daisy, once Gatsby’s lover, the real killer, “hadn’t nt a message or a flower”.(Chapter 9, 233)The sharp contrast between the exavagence of the parties and the coldness of the funeral revealed the hypocritical relationship among people and the moral degradation of the Jazz Age.

not be handsome for the purpo of being rich,and a young man could find a job in which he would do nothing but be paid.While Gatsby, the true heir to the American dream,was killed by Conspiracy of his lover Daisy ,who was actually
stimulated by the vanity fair, and lived in luxury at the cost of Gatsby, to whom without mercy.The cruel reality smashed Gatsby’s dream. Fitzgerald’s comment on the failure of Gatsby’s dream was also a statement on the failure of American dream. The contrast of the dream and the reality significantly indicated a moving away from faith and hope in a world where material interests had driven out ntimentality and faith. What is more, dream, even if it persists, is utterly helpless and defenless against a material society. It can only be defeated. Gatsby was an example. Owing to his unrealistic dream, Gatsby’s fate turned out to be a tragedy. Becau he was not conscious of his unrealistic dream of love and he did not correctly handle contradictions between ideal and reality, Gatsby sunk into this kind of unreal dream so deeply that he can’t wake up. And the final result of Gatsby was surely mirable.
The Great Gatsby is Fitzgerald’s finest novel.“nsitive and symbolic treatment of themes of contemporary life related with irony and pathos to the legendry of the American dream.”——《The Oxford Companion to American Literature》
列当的功效与作用The sharp contrast between dream and reality not only explains Gatsby’s failure at the end, it also explains the meaninglessness of that age. In a word, the contrasts provide the readers with a panorama of 1920s. And in the contrast, the theme of the novel ----the disillusion of the American dream ----is strengthened. In the mean time,the loss of the American dream reflects the corruption of people’s morality.
