《我的儿子皮卡--影子灰狗》读后感

　　今天，我怀着高兴的心情读完了曹文轩写的《我的儿子皮卡——影子灰狗》这本书。文中的主人公皮卡、皮达、何自达给我留下了深刻的印象。

　　本书主要写了皮卡一家人之间发生的故事以及皮卡与好友何自达的那份深厚的情谊。全文分三章，第一章裸睡。主要是写爸爸与皮卡的哥哥皮达关于怎样睡觉这个问题发生的争论，从这一对父子俩的争吵中我看到了自己的影子。最近，我也是经常为了一点小事就和妈妈争吵不休，有时气得妈妈偷偷地掉眼泪。仔细想想，妈妈每天为了我的生活、学习而操劳不休，可我不但不感恩，反而惹妈妈生气。“鸦有反哺之孝，羊知跪乳之恩。”而我又做到了什么?

　　第二章笛子与笛子。主要讲的是何自达想在爸爸四十岁生日时，送给爸爸一只花篮作为生日礼物。可他的零花钱远远不够买一只花篮。无奈的情况下他和皮卡情不自禁地来到池塘边偷起花来。被巡逻队人员发现，何自达不小心掉进了池塘里。皮卡见势不妙，背起花拼命地逃跑。最终被抓到了保卫部。只好通知爸爸，交上罚款，皮卡才得以释放。可皮卡没有向爸爸做过多的解释，竟背起花直奔向何自达家。他们一起度过了一个美丽而浪漫的夜晚。人生难得一知己！真为何自达有皮卡这样的朋友而高兴。

　　第三章影子灰狗。皮卡把一只流浪狗领回了家，接下来发生了好几起灰狗咬人事件。大家一致认为是灰狗“灰灰”所为。“灰灰”被送到了收容所，然而灰狗咬人事件并未平息，这时皮卡一家人才幡然醒悟，他们错怪了“灰灰”。WwW.330011.Com皮卡和哥哥为了给“灰灰”洗刷不白之冤，费尽心思找到了咬人的灰狗，并让抓狗行家逮捕了它。可“灰灰”已有了新的主人，永远回不来了。可怜的皮卡把自己变成了一只狗，“汪！汪！汪汪汪！。。。。。。”叫个不停。令人心酸！

　　通过读这本书我深刻的明白了世上没有一个十全十美的人，每个人都有优点、缺点。每个人都应虚心接受自己的缺点并极力改正。每个人都应让自己的优点无限扩大。（王炜晨）

A Book of All Times
——Thoughts given by Sherlock Holmes and the Duke’s Son

 
Written in the first chapter of the book Pride and Prejudice is an extraordinary sentence of which even a person who has had only a brief look upon the book will not fail to receive a deep impression-It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife. In terms of Sherlock Holmes, we’d better alter the sentence into “It is a fact universally accepted by readers throughout the world that an excellent book in possession of our famous detective Sherlock Holmes is undoubtedly a masterpiece of all times.” Perhaps this is one of the most obvious explanations for the unrivaled popularity of “Holmes series” in the field of detective stories. Overwhelmed by the recommendations provided by my friends, I decided to take a look on this Sherlock Holmes and the Duke’s Son originally published by Oxford University Press.

    As a whole, this book is about a case concerning the Duke’s missing son. Arthur, the Duke’s son, was found out in a certain morning to have disappeared, accompanied with which was also the disappearance of the German teacher. The school master Dr. Huxtable then turned to the famous detective of the time Sherlock Holmes for help. Realizing how tough and important the case is, Holmes immediately made up his mind to accept the case and followed Dr. Huxtable back to Mackleton by train. Having formed a rough idea about the whole matter, Holmes probed into the case immediately and had a careful investigation of the entire area shortly after the arrival, during the process of which he discovered the body of the German teacher Heidegger. Finally, primarily due to his prominent ability as a detective, he managed to unravel the mystery and obtained the twelve thousand pounds promised by the Duke.

    Having once started reading this fiction, I was completely immersed in the mysterious story presented by the book. As the saying goes, “Well begun, half done”. At the beginning of the story, just like many other detective stories, the author gives us a brief description of the condition by the words of a client. However, unlike other ones, this story first delineates the client’s strange behavior at length to indicate the severity of the incident in order to attract the readers to continue reading it. As is known to all, vivid depiction is essential to detective stories since it can help the readers understand each figure’s characteristics and visualize the scenes, thus making the story more authentic and attractive. Therefore, trying to present a “real world” to his readership, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of the original “Holmes series”, has skillfully arranged the plots of the whole story from the perspective of Dr. Watson, a character not so specialized in discovering the truth hidden behind the enigmatic happenings as Holmes but so loyal to Sherlock Homes as a friend that he always accompanies Holmes wherever he goes. In this way, he elaborately depicted every scene and character in the book, Apart from the special start, the ending of the whole story, being dramatic but reasonable, is certainly an outstanding one. After all, except the author himself, who knows that the Duke’s seemingly ordinary secretary is in fact the Duke’s bastard? In addition, who knows that the Duke actually has already been acquainted with the whole thing before Holmes solves this complicated problem? Yet, surprising as it is, this ending seems so natural that it fits all the plots of the story perfectly well. While enjoying this wonderful story, I could do nothing but admire the wonderful design of this masterpiece as well as the author’s gorgeous writing skill. Closing my eyes, I can even “see” the story happening just like watching a film. Not until then did I understand why the Japanese cartoon film Detective Conan used this “Conan” as the name of its hero.《1》《2》

    As far as I am concerned, nothing is more admirable and surprising in the hero Sherlock Homes than his profound knowledge which has certainly assisted him a lot when he was studying the case. Take the bicycle tyres for instance, Holmes actually is capable of recognizing 42 different varieties of bicycle tyres. What’s more, according to his other stories, Holmes has studied different kinds of newspapers, cigarettes, people’s footprints and other special things as well. Therefore, he seems to have the mastery of anything relevant to the cases he deals with. Except for his illimitable knowledge, Holmes also specializes in arranging the facts in order and then finding the fact leading him to a GREat discovery or even the truth itself. From his speaking “Every mystery has an answer”, we can readily shape the impression of a man with great intelligence and inflexible will. In this case, after getting rid of unrelated facts, Sherlock Homes eventually grasped the clue and discovered the amazing fact.

    Needless to say, as a world-renowned masterpiece, Sherlock Holmes and the Duke’s Son has attracted and is still charming numerous readers from all corners of the world and people from all walks of life. The “Holmes series” has already set up a standard against which all the following detective fictions are measured. Sherlock Holmes, beyond all doubt, has become a name firmly rooted in people’s memories. Although Dr. Watson’s closing The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes in 1927 was a GREat pity to the readers, the discontinuance of the entire “Holmes series” may have actually added to the legendary stature of Sherlock Holmes.
