i have never been to troy, but david maule made me feel as if i were standing on the high wall of troy, watching the fierce war. thanks to this british author, who adapted the famous homer’s poem into a lively story, i found it easier to understand this story. though the story happened over 3000 years ago in a remote place, i was deeply fascinated by it.
the mysterious plot is one of the reasons why i loved the story of troy so much, yet i am more interested in the human heroes of the war.
hector was the eldest son of king of troy, priam. he was not only a real hero of trojan, but was regarded the highest moral hero in greek classic by later historians. the war started because of the mischief of his brother, paris, whom he didn’t appreciate. however, since hector was the commander of the trojan army, he was obliged to fight with all force. it was really a tragedy that such a valiant man died in the duel with another great warrior, achilles.
it is natural to see death in a war. as a famous chinese parable says, “a life can be as slight as a piece of feather, or as weighty as mount tai.” sometimes, one’s glory walks hand in hand with one’s doom. achilles was such a typical person. his personal charm made the story of troy more attractive. he was so crucial because his every appearance in a war encouraged his fellow soldiers and terrified the enemies. actually, achilles was half-god who was almost invincible in people’s mind. that’s why his name was memorized long after his death.
besides the two great men, the wisdom of odysseus also proved him to be a great hero. he didn’t want to attend the war because he was happily married and had a lovely son. however, since his country was allied to mycenae, he had to take the command given by the king of mycenae. i’m quite sure that the story of the wooden horse is widely known, however, few people know who thought of the brilliant idea, that’s why i admired odysseus so much because he was the person who got the idea. thanks to the horse, the ten-year war came to an end at last. if you want to know how the wooden horse worked, just read the book.
the ancient greeks believed that the gods and goddesses also played important roles in the origin, process and ending of the whole story.
the story of the golden apple was such an example. when eris, the goddess of argument and disagreement, threw out the golden apple to a wedding ceremony on mount olympus, a dispute happened. hera, the queen of gods, athena, the goddess of wisdom, and aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, were all involved in the argument for the apple. none of them was willing to give way, so they turned to paris for a final judgment. tempted by aphrodite’s beauty and promise, paris handed the apple to her. to keep her word, aphrodite helped him to get helen, the most beautiful woman in the world, as his wife. that was the cause of the war.
paris’s choice obviously annoyed the other two goddesses. so during the war, they helped the greek alliance army while some other gods, such as apollo and aphrodite, guarded troy. when paris dueled with helen’s former husband menelaus, aphrodite saved paris when he was about to be finished off.
after the duel between those two people, there was a truce between the greek alliance and troy. however, both hera and athena were not happy to see it. hera pursued her husband zeus:“ now, will you send athena to make the troyjans break the peace?”(page 22 then with zeus’s permission, athena went down to start the war again and finally she brought the greeks to success.
from the whole story, we can see that in ancient greeks’ view, gods sometimes played a much more important role in their life. however, with the rapid development of science, we have learned that the greek gods never existed. this is why a recent movie of troy has not mentioned a single god. everything happened due to men’s ambition, love, loyalty or jealousy. with those emotion and people’s effort, we human beings can accomplish wonders and be master of the world.
god are of less importance than they used to be. nonetheless, the gods and goddesses made the story of troy more mysterious and marvelous.
i have learnt from the book more than the wonderful story of history, love and war. i believe that human can determine their destiny by their own. i highly recommend this book to my friends.

下面谈谈学习毅力的.问题。如果你有坚强的毅力，那么世界上就没有什么难事。学英语关键是能够持之以恒。
在学习过程中，你应该制订一个计划，一天记住几个单词，一天记住一两个句型。你不要小看“持之以恒”的力量。举个例子：
如果你一天背5个单词一年就是1825个单词，相当于初中三年再加高中一年零两个月的词汇量。如果你坚持两年你就能住3650个单词，相当于中学六年包括本科两年的词汇量。
在制订计划时要遵循以下几项原则:
1、计划要切实可行，不要好高务远。上面的例子已经说明，只要你能坚持天天学习，英语一定能学好。
2、要有坚强的毅力，每天都学习，不因为某些事而耽误了学习。如果哪天的工作没有完成，第二天一定要补上。连续不学习的时间不要超过两天。
3、要有一个帐本，哪天学会了哪几个单词，哪几个句型一定记录在案。
4、为了把单词、句型真正学到手，第二天一定要复习第一天的，第三天一定要复习第二天和第一天的内容。
5、所选择的课本可以是一套或两套，千万别太多。实际学英语的书没有什么好坏之分，只要你能按照一套或两

a tale of two cities occupies a central place in the canon of charles dickens's works. this novel of the french revolution was originally serialized in the author's own periodical all the year round. weekly publication of chapters 1-3 of book 1 began on april 30, 1859. in an innovative move, dickens simultaneously released installments of the novel on a monthly basis, beginning with all of book 1 in june and concluding with the last eight chapters of book 3 in december. dickens took advantage of the novel's serial publication to experiment with characterization, plot, and theme. he described the work in a letter to his friend john forster, cited in rudi glancy's a tale of two cities: dickens's revolutionary novel, as "a picturesque story rising in every chapter, with characters true to nature, but whom the story should express more than they should express themselves by dialogue." the novel that emerged from his experimentation is now regarded as one of dickens's most popular and most innovative works.
dickens's work was very popular with the reading public when it was first published. one review in the magazine athenaeum stated that a tale of two cities had attracted the praise of a hundred thousand readers. on the other hand, a whole set of critics, most notably sir james fitzjames stephen writing in saturday review, criticized the novel precisely for its popularity. "most of the critics writing in the intellectual and literary journals of the day considered popular success a good reason to condemn a work," explains glancy. "if the public liked it, they certainly could not be seen to approve of it at all." modern critical opinion, however, has given the novel an important place among dickens's most mature works of fiction.

先明确一下读书笔记的原则：
1. 不要为了做笔记而做笔记。笔记是帮助构建知识体系的工具。笔记代替不了思考，只能作为思考的补充。
2. 做了笔记，要多看，否则，毫无作用。
3. 不要依赖笔记。笔记的作用就是让你不再需要笔记。
再说一下读书笔记的几个误区：
1. 笔记就是摘抄
摘抄是最没效率的方法。如果需要记录大段的原文以供引用，请拍照。这就是数码时代的便利。
2. 笔记就是给一本书画大纲
这同样是效率极低的方法。一本书的内容，不可能全部都使你感兴趣，能纳入你的知识体系。而且，仅仅因为“这本书里有这样的内容”，就记下自己不喜欢也不需要的东西，会影响做笔记的积极性。
3. 笔记要保存起来，时时翻看
前期确实如此，但如果一本笔记做了几年，当你需要时，还得翻开笔记去查——那这笔记做了有什么用？你的知识是储存在大脑里的，不是储存在笔记里的。笔记只有两种：一种是原文，以备查询（拍照或者用电脑录入即可）；一种是思维架构，帮助完善知识体系，用完就可以丢弃。
说说我的笔记方法。
当你看一本书，读罢一章，觉得信息量巨大，醍醐灌顶，拍案叫绝，恨不得马上把这一章画大纲、抄下来——这时，先别忙着这样做。
先问自己：这一章里面，感兴趣的是哪些？有哪些能纳入自己的知识体系之中？
比如，读古希腊史，你也许不会对克里特宫殿里有什么器皿、迈锡尼人驯养了什么家畜、伊奥尼亚人种植了什么作物感兴趣，你比较感兴趣的是：希波战争的整个过程。它是如何发生的？双方的实力对比如何？有哪些经典的小战役？
那么，带着这个问题，再读一遍，其他无关的信息，不要理会。
读的时候，看到任何一个不懂的词、不清楚的概念，立刻上网查，务必弄明白。
当你把这个过程梳理清楚了，好，眼睛离开书。现在，请你在心中想象一个听众，用你的话把这个知识点解释给他听。
说的过程中，遇到任何不清楚的地方，停下来，上网查，马上弄明白。
等你可以流畅地把“希波战争发生的全过程”解释清楚了，打开笔记本，在本子上记下要点。这些要点，就是你在叙述时，那些比较重要的节点，那些“牵一发而动全身”的点。
下一步，请你思考，这个东西，可以跟知识体系中的.什么联系起来？
你通过这个知识点，可以联想到什么你已经知道了的东西？
以这个点为圆心，把它们记在它的周围。
这就是你关于这个知识点的图式。
好了，这个知识点已经告一段落，请在笔记下面标明日期、书名、页码，然后就可以翻开下一章了。
接下来，只需要每周一次，或者几天一次，翻开这几天做的笔记，根据自己记下的图式，将这个知识点完完整整地回忆出来。
然后，根据周围的联系元素，将它在你整个知识图式中过一遍。
直到你对这个点已经烂熟于心，这则笔记也就完成它的使命了。
文/杨绛（注：钱钟书夫人）
许多人说，钱钟书记忆力特强，过目不忘。他本人却并不以为自己有那么“神”。他只是好读书，肯下功夫，不仅读，还做笔记；不仅读一遍两遍，还会读三遍四遍，笔记上不断地添补。所以他读的书虽然很多，也不易遗忘。
他做笔记的习惯是在牛津大学图书馆（Bodleian他译为饱蠹楼）读书时养成的。因为饱蠹楼的图书向例不外借。到那里去读书，只准携带笔记本和铅笔，书上不准留下任何痕迹，只能边读边记。钟书的“饱蠹楼书记”第一册上写着如下几句：“廿五年（一九三六年）二月起，与绛约间日赴大学图书馆读书，各携笔札，露钞雪纂、聊补三箧之无，铁画银钩，虚说千毫之秃，是为引。”第二册有题辞如下：“心如椰子纳群书，金匮青箱总不如，提要勾玄留指爪，忘筌他日并无鱼。（默存题，季康以狼鸡杂毫笔书于灯下）”这都是用毛笔写的，显然不是在饱蠹楼边读边记，而是经过反刍，然后写成的笔记。
做笔记很费时间。钟书做一遍笔记的时间，约莫是读这本书的一倍。他说，一本书，第二遍再读，总会发现读第一遍时会有很多疏忽。最精彩的句子，要读几遍之后才发现。
钟书读书做笔记成了习惯。但养成这习惯，也因为我们多年来没个安顿的居处，没地方藏书。他爱买书，新书的来源也很多，不过多数的书是从各图书馆借的。他读完并做完笔记，就把借来的书还掉，自己的书往往随手送人了。钟书深谙“书非借不能读也”的道理，有书就赶紧读，读完总做笔记。无数的书在我家流进流出，存留的只是笔记，所以我家没有大量藏书。
钟书的笔记从国外到国内，从上海到北京，从一个宿舍到另一个宿舍，从铁箱、木箱、纸箱，以至麻袋、枕套里出出进进，几经折磨，有部分笔记本已字迹模糊，纸张破损。钟书每天总爱翻阅一两册中文或外文笔记，常把精彩的片段读给我听。我曾想为他补裰破旧笔记，他却阻止了我。他说：“有些都没用了。”哪些没用了呢？对谁都没用了吗？我当时没问，以后也没想到问。
钟书去世后，我找出大量笔记，经反复整理，分出三类。
第一类是外文笔记（外文包括英、法、德、意、西班牙、拉丁文）。除了极小部分是钟书用两个指头在打字机上打的，其余全是手抄。笔记上还记有书目和重要的版本以及原文的页数。他读书也不忽略学术刊物。凡是著名作家有关文学、哲学、政治的重要论文，他读后都做笔记，并记下刊物出版的年、月、日。钟书自从摆脱了读学位的羁束，就肆意读书。英国文学，在他已有些基础。他又循序攻读法国文学，从十五世纪到十九世纪而二十世纪；也同样攻读德国文学、意大利文学的历代重要作品，一部一部细读，并勤勤谨谨地做笔记。这样，他又为自己打下了法、德、意大利的文学基础。以后，他就随遇而读。他的笔记，常前后互相引证参考，所以这些笔记本很难编排。而且我又不懂德文、意大利文和拉丁文。恰逢翻译《围城》的德国汉学家莫宜佳博士（ProfessorDr.MonikaMotsch）来北京。我就请她帮我编排。她看到目录和片断内容，“馋”得下一年暑假借机会又到北京来，帮我编排了全部外文笔记。笔记本共一百七十八册，还有打字稿若干页，全部外文笔记共三万四千多页。
钟书在国内外大学攻读外国文学，在大学教书也教外国文学，“院系调整”后，他也是属于文学研究所外国文学组的。但他多年被派去做别的工作，以后又借调中国古典文学组，始终未能回外文组工作。他原先打算用英文写一部论外国文学的著作，也始终未能如愿。那些外文笔记，对他来说，该是“没用了”。但是对于学习外国文学的人，对于研究钱钟书著作的人，能是没用吗？
第二是中文笔记。他开始把中文的读书笔记和混在一起。一九五二年知识分子第一次受“思想改造”时，他风闻学生可检查“老先生”的日记。日记属私人私事，不宜和学术性的笔记混在一起。他用小剪子把日记部分剪掉毁了。这部分笔记支离破碎，而且都散乱了，整理很费功夫。他这些笔记，都附带自己的议论，亦常常前后参考、互相引证。以后的笔记他都亲自记下书目，也偶有少许批语。中文笔记和外文笔记的数量，大致不相上下。
第三类是“日札”钟书的读书心得。日札想是“思想改造”运动之后开始的。最初的本子上还有涂抹和剪残处。以后他就为日札题上各种名称，如“容安馆日札”、“容安室日札”、“容安斋日札”；署名也多种多样，如“容安馆主”、“容安斋居士”、“槐聚居士”等等；还郑重其事，盖上各式图章。我先还分门别类，后来才明白，这些“馆”、“斋”、“室”等，只是一九五三年“院系调整”后，我家居住的中关园小平房（引用陶渊明《归去来辞》“审容膝之易安”）。以后屡次迁居，在钟书都是“容膝易安”的住所，所以日札的名称一直没改。
日札共二十三册、二千多页，分八百零二则。每一则只有数目，没有篇目。日札基本上是用中文写的，杂有大量外文，有时连着几则都是外文。不论古今中外，从博雅精深的历代经典名著，到通俗的小说院本，以至村谣俚语，他都互相参考引证，融会贯通，而心有所得，但这点“心得”还待写成文章，才能成为他的著作。《管锥编》里，在在都是日札里的心得，经发挥充实而写成的文章。例如：《管锥编。楚辞洪兴祖补注》十八则，共九十五页，而日札里读《楚辞》的笔记一则，只疏疏朗朗记了十六页；《管锥编。周易正义》二十七则，共一百零九页，而日札里读《周易》的笔记，只有一则，不足十二页；《管锥编。毛诗正义》六十则，共一百九十四页，而日札里读《毛诗》的笔记二则，不足十七页。
钟书在《管锥编》的序文中说：“……遂料简其较易理董者，锥指管窥，先成一辑”、 “初计此辑尚有《全唐文》等书五种，而多病意懒，不能急就。”读《全唐文》等书的心得，日札里都有。他曾对我说：“我至少还想写一篇《韩愈》、一篇《杜甫》。”这两篇，想是“不易理董者”，再加“多病意懒”，都没有写出来。日札里的心得，没有写成文章的还不少呢。
这大量的中、外文笔记和读书心得，钟书都“没用了”。但是他一生孜孜石乞石乞积聚的知识，对于研究他学问和研究中外文化的人，总该是一份有用的遗产。我应当尽我所能，为有志读书求知者，把钟书留下的笔记和日札妥为保存。
感谢商务印书馆愿将钱钟书的全部手稿扫描印行，保留着手稿原貌，公之于众。我相信公之于众是最妥善的保存。但愿我这办法，“死者如生，生者无愧”。
