作者创作《简·爱》时的英国已是世界上的头号工业大国,但英国妇女的地位并因此而得到改变,依然处于从属、依附的地位,女子的生存目标就是要嫁入豪门,即便不能生在富贵人家,也要努力通过婚姻获得财富和地位,女性职业的惟一选择是当个好妻子、好母亲。以作家为职业的女性会被认为是违背了正当女性气质,会受到男性的激烈攻击,从夏洛蒂姐妹的作品当初都假托男性化的笔名一事,可以想见当时的女性作家面临着怎样的困境。而《简·爱》就是在这一被动的背景下写成的。
1、那天,出去散步是不可能了。其实,早上我们还在光秃秃的灌木林中溜达了一个小时,但从午饭时起便刮起了冬日凛冽的寒风,随后阴云密布,大雨滂沱,室外的活动也就只能作罢了。
2、我向来不喜欢远距离散步,尤其在冷飕飕的下午。试想,阴冷的薄暮时分回得家来,手脚都冻僵了,还要受到保姆贝茵的数落,又自觉体格不如伊丽莎、约翰和乔治亚娜,心里既难过又惭愧,那情形委实可怕。
3、在我右侧,绯红色窗幔的皱褶档住了我的视线;左侧,明亮的玻璃窗庇护着我,使我既免受十一月阴沉天气的侵害,又不与外面的世界隔绝,在翻书的间隙,我抬头细看冬日下午的景色。只见远方白茫茫一片云雾,近处湿漉漉一块草地和受风雨袭击的灌木。一阵持久而凄厉的狂风,驱赶着如注的暴雨,横空归过。
4、那就是书中提到的拉普兰、西伯利亚、斯匹次卑尔根群岛、新地岛、冰岛和格陵兰荒凉的海岸。“广袤无垠的北极地带和那些阴凄凄的不毛之地,宛若冰雪的储存库。千万个寒冬所积聚成的坚冰,像阿尔卑斯山的层层高峰,光滑晶莹,包围着地极,把与日俱增的严寒汇集于一处。”
5、我对这些死白色的地域,已有一定之见,但一时难以捉摸,仿佛孩子们某些似懂非懂的念头,朦朦胧胧浮现在脑际,却出奇地生动,导言中的这几页文字,与后面的插图相配,使兀立于大海波涛中的孤岩,搁浅在荒凉海岸上的破船,以及透过云带俯视着沉船的幽幽月光,更加含义隽永了。
6、每幅画都是一个故事、由于我理解力不足,欣赏水平有限,它们往往显得神秘莫测,但无不趣味盎然,就像某些冬夜,贝茜碰巧心情不错时讲述的故事一样。
7、我发现他真是个暴君,是个***人犯。我觉得一两滴血从头上顺着脖子淌下来,感到一阵热辣辣的剧痛。这些感觉一时占了上风,我不再畏惧,而发疯似地同他对打起来。我不太清楚自己的双手到底干了什么,只听得他骂我“耗子!耗子!”一面***猪似地嚎叫着。
8、那个阴沉的下午,我心里多么惶恐不安!我的整个脑袋如一团乱麻,我的整颗心在反抗:然而那场内心斗争又显得多么茫然,多么无知啊!我无法回答心底那永无休止的问题——为什么我要如此受苦。此刻,在相隔——我不说多少年以后,我看清楚了。
9、红房子里白昼、将尽。时候已是四点过后,暗沉沉的下午正转为凄凉的黄昏。我听见雨点仍不停地敲打着楼梯的窗户,狂风在门厅后面的树丛中怒号。我渐渐地冷得像块石头,勇气也烟消云散。往常那种屈辱感,那种缺乏自信、孤独沮丧的情绪,浇灭了我将消未消的怒火,谁都说我坏,也许我确实如此吧。
10、红房子事件并没有给我身体留下严重或慢性的后遗症,它不过使我的神经受了惊吓,对此我至今记忆犹新。是的,里德太太,你让我领受了可怕的精神创伤,但我应当原谅你、因为你并不明白自己干了些什么,明明是在割断我的心弦,却自以为无非是要根除我的恶习。
11、我先没有回答,顾自又推了一下窗子,因为我要让这鸟儿万无一失地吃到面包。窗子终于松动了,我撒出了面包屑,有的落在石头窗沿上,有的落在樱桃树枝上。
12、此刻,我站在空空荡荡的大厅里,面前就是餐室的门。我停住了脚步,吓得直打哆嗦,可怜的胆小鬼,那时候不公的惩罚竟使她怕成了这付样子!我既不敢退后返回保育室,又怕往前走向客厅。我焦虑不安、犹犹豫豫地站了十来分钟,直到早餐室一阵喧闹的铃声使我横下了心来:我非进去不可了。
13、我孤零零地站那里,成了战场上的胜利者。这是我所经历的最艰难的—场战斗,也是我第一次获得胜利。我在布罗克赫斯特先生站站过的地毯上站了一会,沉缅于征服者的孤独。我先是暗自发笑,感到十分得意。但是这种狂喜犹如一时加快的脉膊会迅速递减一样,很快就消退了。
14、我在控诉和恐吓里德太太时,内心恰如一片点燃了的荒野,火光闪烁,来势凶猛,但经过半小时的沉默和反思,深感自己行为的疯狂和自己恨人又被人嫉恨的处境的悲凉时,我内心的这片荒地,便已灰飞烟灭,留下的只有黑色的焦土了。
15、我第一次尝到了复仇的滋味。犹如芬芳的美酒,喝下时热辣辣好受,但回味起来却又苦又涩,给人有中了毒的感觉。此刻,我很乐意去求得里德太太的宽恕,但和直觉告诉我,那只会使她以加倍的蔑视讨厌我,因而会重又激起我天性中不安份的冲动。
16、走出门去,漫步在一片僻静的树林里。但是沉寂的树木、掉下的杉果,以及那凝固了的秋天的遗物,被风吹成一堆如今又冻结了的行褐色树叶,都没有给我带来愉快。我倚在一扇大门上,凝望着空空的田野,那里没有觅食的羊群,只有冻坏了的苍白的浅草。这是一个灰蒙蒙的日子,降雪前的天空一片混沌,间或飘下一些雪片。落在坚硬的小径上,从在灰白的草地上,没有融化。
17、一路行程,我已记得不多。只知道那天长得出奇,而且似乎赶了几百里路。我们经过几个城镇,在其中很大的一个停了下来。车夫卸了马,让乘客们下车吃饭。我被带进一家客找,护车人要我吃些中饭,我却没有胃口,他便扔下我走了,让我留在—个巨大无比的房间里,房间的两头都有一个火炉,天花板上悬挂着一盏枝形吊灯,高高的墙上有一个小小的红色陈列窗,里面放满了乐器。我在房间里来回走了很久,心里很不自在,害怕有人会进来把我拐走。
18、下午,天气潮湿,雾气迷蒙。白昼溶入黄昏时,我开始感到离开盖茨黑德真的很远了。我们再也没有路过城镇,乡村的景色也起了变化,一座座灰色的大山耸立在地平线上。暮色渐浓,车子驶进一个山谷,那里长着黑乎乎一片森林。夜幕遮盖了一切景物之后很久,我听见狂风在林中呼啸。
19、晚间的玩耍时光,我想是罗沃德一天中最愉快的一丁点儿时间。五点钟吞下的一小块面包和几口咖啡,虽然没有消除饥饿感,却恢复了活力。一整天的清规戒律放松了;教室里比早上要暖和;炉火允许燃得比平时旺,多少代替了尚未点燃的蜡烛。红通通的火光,放肆的喧闹,嘈杂的人声,给人以一种值得欢迎的'自由感。

如果我拿这个题目去随便问一名成功的商人,我想他们的答案都只会有一个,那就是——无价,因为每一位成功的商人,虽然现在看这他们是风风光光的,可是,他们背后付出了多少的努力和汗水才能有今天的成就。当然,他们的成功不仅仅是努力和汗水,还有一样必不可少的成分,那就是——诚信。
就如蒙牛奶业的总裁牛根生来说吧。1978年,20岁的`牛根生来到内蒙古最大的乳品公司伊利,从一名洗瓶工一直做到二把手,1992年担任内蒙古伊利集团生产经营副总裁;1998年底被内蒙古伊利集团免去生产经营副总裁一职;1999年至今创办内蒙古蒙牛乳业(集团)股分有限公司并担任董事长兼总裁职务;过后,牛根生并没有感到沮丧,他决定重操旧业,经过他不屑的努力,在重重围剿中***出一条血路,1999年至今创办内蒙古蒙牛乳业(集团)股分有限公司并担任董事长兼总裁职务。
在蒙牛公司刚刚起步的时候,他们重金打造了第一批属于他们的牛奶,,刚开始当这些牛奶一瓶瓶销售出去以后,他们才发现他们生产的这批牛奶有问题,为了不让顾客们受到任何损失。他们不惜牺牲上百万的资金把所有的牛奶全部都收回来,然后,在对购买物品的顾客登门赔罪,正是因为有了这种诚信,才会有今天的成就。
我记得牛根生说过这样一句话:我妈妈教我的两句话让我终生难忘:要想知道,打个颠倒;吃亏是福,占便宜是祸。小胜凭智,大胜靠德。是啊,这两句话至今也影响我很深,而如今谁还会把诚信看得如此之重呢?所以,从现在的我们做起,诚实守信,为以后更美好的祖国做贡献。
看完以后,大家说,诚信究竟值多少呢?
