法国著名作家安托万·德·圣·埃克苏佩里的经典作品《小王子》。作品讲述了小王子从自己星球出发前往地球的过程中,所经历的各种历险。作者以小王子的孩子式的眼光,透视出成人的空虚、盲目,愚妄和死板教条,用浅显天真的语言写出了人类的孤独寂寞、没有根基随风流浪的命运。同时,也表达出作者对金钱关系的批判,对真善美的讴歌。小王子的形象中也有着淡淡的哀愁和忧郁。作者笔下流露出对社会一些丑恶现象尖刻的讽刺和批判,这是作者此间心情的宣泄。
我深知宇宙浩渺辽阔,人生漫长虚无,却仍在黄昏逐水而歌。 人们的内心追求各不相同。芸芸众生,自得其乐,自得其苦。 What is essential is invisible to the eye, The first book i have read is 《Who moved my cheese》and this is the second book ✅reading method thinking My top priority is oral English, so reading is just for fun.I’m not going to spend much time on written expressions.So I’ll read the book more fully and smoothly, instead of checking every word and every sentence and taking notes. Don’t underline unfamiliar words on the first‑time reading. Take more detailed notes after rereading the whole book so I will use the two‑pass reading method. First, extensive reading for fluency, then intensive reading for notes. ✅reading reflective Thinking No one understands the main character's drawings. This is extremely normal in the sense that everyone's inner feelings and ideals are different. We are all required to learn knowledge useful for exams or life, whether through school education or family education. Nevertheless, cultivating children’s personal interests and strengths is a matter of great consequence for education. The main character made the acquaintance of the Little Prince in the desert when his plane broke down. Like‑minded people will meet at a particular time.They understand each other even without saying a word. Grown‑ups get more practical, at the cost of childlike innocence and imagination. What arouses my curiosity is that they destroy the bad seeds right from the start.If they don’t do this, it means a catastrophe for the planet. So it is important to treat every small thing with the greatest care. If you ignore these small problems, it means a catastrophe for you. 🌷one loves the sunset, when one is so sad… He feels sad because he is lonely and upset about his rose. Sunset matches his sad feelings. ✅ Sometimes we say the opposite just to test people, but they don’t get what we really mean. it’s so great to express your needs directly. If you succeed in judging yourself rightly, then you are indeed a man of true wisdom." Everyone has their own choices, and others have no right to interfere. We only judge others for escaping from our own perspective When I touch a flower, I can feel what it's saying.When I walk outside, I can hear the wind.Looking at the stars is also a silent conversation. We connect with each other in that moment.Having something doesn’t mean owning it physically. 触摸花能感受到花的讯息,走在路上能听见风的声音,看着星星不也是一种无声的对话和交流吗?在某个时间,你们彼此连接。拥有并非占有,拥有并非一定要物理拥有。 Flowers will fade one day, but the joy of seeing them lasts forever. We long for something permanent, yet everything is always changing.花总有凋谢的一天,看花的你不会,看花的过程永远不会。 当我们追求永恒的时候,随之而来的往往是变化。 What is really essential is invisible to the eye, and the most precious experience cannot be replaced by anything. Everyone pursues beautiful dreams and a wonderful future, yet what truly matters is our inner pursuits. Even though technology and money can spare us time and grant us many comforts, I’d rather make my way toward the clean water.
小王子是我阅读的第二本英文书籍,第一次看的英文小说是傲慢与偏见,相比第一次的小说此本要容易的多,阅读英文小说之前至少有不下于两次的中文阅读和听书相当于有了四遍的基础,纯粹是出于对人物的热爱,才一再翻阅。 小王子和玫瑰的爱情,多像年少的我们,任性不懂得珍惜,却终有一天忽然醒悟。小王子和狐狸,狐狸祈求小王子来驯养它,这样它们就建立了连接,在双方彼此眼中就成为重要的人,不只是一只普通的狐狸和小王子,其实小王子和玫瑰之间也是这样,只不过玫瑰在小王子的关注照顾下事实不知不觉已经建立了这种连接并已发芽生根,念念不忘... 孩子的世界简单,质朴,看到了生命的真善美,古希腊有种说法,美赋予了神性。而成年人活在虚荣,权利,金钱,守旧中不能自拔,周日劳累,又怎么看到生命的意义和那些最美好的人和事? . .. 阅读摘录: I hunt chickens; men hunt me. All the chickens are just alike, and all the men are just alike. And, in consequence, I am a little bored. But if you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life. I shall know the sound of a step that will be different from all the others.Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground. Yours will call me,like music, out of my burrow. And then look: you see the grain-fields down yonder? I do not eat bread. Wheat is of no use to me. The wheat fields have nothing to say to me. And that is sad. But you have hair that is the color of gold.Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat . . . What is essential is invisible to the eye What I see here is nothing but a shell. What is most important is invisible… The thing that is important is the thing that is not seen。

自由不是无所牵挂,而是当你"tame"某人某物后,愿意承担守护的责任
爱是需要用心来发现的。而不是靠语言,靠眼睛。
在小学和初中的时候都有了解到《小王子》,但是都没有从头到尾浏览过内容。经过了加起来十几二十年的学习加工作经历后,对这本书的情节,有了个人化的启示。 小王子在和玫瑰的沟通中出现焦虑困惑与无助时,他选择离开了他的星球,去了解不同星球的人的生活方式,没有将自己困在原来的星球,而是选择寻找答案。他遇见了唯利是图的商人兢兢业业的掌灯人,热衷于表达自我欲望的国王,渴望获得持续赞美的先生,依赖探索家品德并伏案收集资料的地理学家,还有因产生愧疚但让自己逃避愧疚的酗酒人。对这些不同类型并处在各自星球的大人,小王子都对他们的行为进行了评价和诊断,并且没有被他们所改变,只是了解了他们的问题和优点。最后遇到了狐狸,小王子明白了一切的独特都源于是否与他的意识和实践产生了联系,也更加理解了玫瑰的不安,明白了玫瑰在他心中的意义。所以如果遇到问题,多走走,多与不同的视角沟通,或许会明白到世界的广阔与否,以及对世界的认识也会影响着与他人相处的观念。 另外是可以更加了解人对于建立理解的渴望。或许人对事物的兴趣和对因果关系的推测就是证明他在这个世界上独一无二的方式。不论他的想法是否与他人相同,每个人从出生的那一刻开始就是占据了一个特殊的点,不可能出现在同一个经纬度和同一个时间,他需要对自己的确认,但由于幼小的时候所见所闻有局限,身边成人的观点和控制是他必须要服从的,否则可能被剥夺被支持的可能性,他还没有机会去验证自己的想法,所以也无法有信心。主人公是幸运的,即便小的时候他被压抑了想象力,可是在这次飞机意外后,他在沙漠中遇到了和他同样对万事万物都有具体关切的小王子,从这时开始,他的想象力成为了他和小王子建立友谊的契机,也验证了他的想象力不仅对于他自己,同时对于他人来说也是有意义的。 狐狸是有智慧的,因为他知道意识的连接,并且生命体的存在需要依附于意识确认,无论是确认自己,还是确认他人。它没有因为能够驯服小鸡而感到满足,因为小鸡或许没有意识,无法因为沟通而产生喜怒哀乐,也不会惦记它,或许这是狐狸非常乐于与小王子建立连接的原因。关系的重要性在于,是否能在意识中映照彼此,当然关系也分好坏,良好的关系是会产生愉快的情绪的,即便猎人是能够惦记着狐狸,但也是要俘获他的,并不是尊重他,照顾他。关于玫瑰,他或许是担心只有自己是唯一一个,小王子才会关心、照顾它,于是沟通时会夸大自己的感受,也会在不安中苛责小王子。这或许也是人们的困境,什么才是特别的自己,难道是地球上剩最后一个人的时候,那个人才是特别的吗(假设其他星球还不能入住)?答案是:不是的。一个人的特别从出生就已经注定了,是时、空、实践、生理条件、心智条件、社会综合构成的独立个体。既然我们的独特性是本质,那我们需要照顾自己并且去寻找让自己快乐同时也尊重他人快乐的事物、面向多彩的世界。 人的生命长度是有限的,地球和世界的物质资源从目前的科学实证角度来看也是有限的,但是如果我们一直只向前奔跑,虽然对他人产生影响,但只有他人是能看到完整自己的,我们的眼睛也只能看向其他的事物(除了照镜子和反思、观察),所以如果没有停下来,和不同的人们交流或者意识中反思、了解自己,就难以确认自己需要什么样的方式去存在了(世界是由具体的颜色、气味、结构形状、材质、空间、时间所构成的,所以丰富感官是重要的途径),就会产生空虚。玫瑰让小王子离开B612星球,是勇敢的,面对可能自己最后被发现并非是独一无二的挫折,是无私的,也是关怀的。 看了《小王子》,我个人会把它在语言上归类为儿童读本,因为它没有直接阐述社会运作的机制,人际交往的逻辑,但就像书里说的,重要的事物都是不可见的。《小王子》通过人物之间的提问和回答,反映了人们可能有过的挣扎和困惑,容易让人产生共鸣,但一般来说有过一定的阅历也意味着到达了一定的年龄。毕竟故事里的主人公叙述跨越的时间长度就是从幼年到成人。 虽然小王子最后离开了地球,与主人公告别,但是是非常美好的相遇。主人公在每个夜晚看到星星都会产生期待和希望,因为他的存在或许已经被遥远星辰中的B12星球的小王子所记住了。 我猜想之所以叫做小王子,而不是小国王,是因为他身上体现了善良、正直、友好、宽容的美好品质,但是他只是在观察和建议,没有要求其他人去改变或者去服从于某种的想法。 此外,这本书很适合英文学习,很多单词,例如disturbing,sketch,landscape在生活和学习中也常常会见到和被使用到。
2025年6月11日 星期三 祝福早安 天气晴朗 气温27℃ 《小王子》 I believe that for his escape he took advantage of the migration of a flock of wild birds. On the morning of his departure he put his planet in perfect order. He carefully cleaned out his active volcanoes.He possessed two active volcanoes; and they were very convenient for heating his breakfast in the morning. He also had one volcano that was extinct.But, as he said, "One never knows!" So he cleaned out the extinct volcano, too. If they are well cleaned out, volcanoes burn slowly and steadily, without any eruptions. Volcanic eruptions are like fires in a chimney. On our earth we are obviously much too small to clean out our volcanoes. That is why they bring no end of trouble upon us. The little prince also pulled up, with a certain sense of dejection, the last little shoots of the baobabs. He believed that he would never want to return. But on this last morning all these familiar tasks seemed very precious to him. And when he watered the flower for the last time, and prepared to place her under the shelter of her glass globe, he realized that he was very close to tears. "Goodbye," he said to the flower. But she made no answer. "Goodbye," he said again. The flower coughed. But it was not because she had a cold. "I have been silly," she said to him, at last. "I ask your forgiveness. Try to be happy . . ." He was surprised by this absence of reproaches.He stood there all bewildered, the glass globe held arrested in mid-air. He did not understand this quiet sweetness. "Of course I love you," the flower said to him. "It is my fault that you have not known it all the while. That is of no importance. But you—you have been just as foolish as I. Try to be happy… Let the glass globe be. I don't want it any more." "But the wind—" "My cold is not so bad as all that… The cool night air will do me good. I am a flower." "But the animals—" "Well, I must endure the presence of two or three caterpillars if I wish to become acquainted with the butterflies. It seems that they are very beautiful. And if not the butterflies—and the caterpillars—who will call upon me? You will be far away… As for the large animals—I am not at all afraid of any of them. I have my claws." And, naïvely, she showed her four thorns. Then she added: "Don't linger like this. You have decided to go away. Now go!" For she did not want him to see her crying. She was such a proud flower… He sputtered a little, and seemed vexed. For what the king fundamentally insisted upon was that his authority should be respected. He tolerated no disobedience. He was an absolute monarch. But, because he was a very good man, he made his orders reasonable. "If I ordered a general," he would say, by way of example, "if I ordered a general to change himself into a sea bird, and if the general did not obey me, that would not be the fault of the general. It would be my fault." "May I sit down?" came now a timid inquiry from the little prince. "I order you to do so," the king answered him, and majestically gathered in a fold of his ermine mantle. But the little prince was wondering . . . The planet was tiny. Over what could this king really rule? "Sire," he said to him, "I beg that you will excuse my asking you a question—" "I order you to ask me a question," the king hastened to assure him. "Sire—over what do you rule?" "Over everything," said the king, with magnificent simplicity. "Over everything?" The king made a gesture, which took in his planet,the other planets, and all the stars. "Over all that?" asked the little prince. "Over all that," the king answered. For his rule was not only absolute: it was also universal. "And the stars obey you?" "Certainly they do," the king said. "They obey instantly. I do not permit insubordination." Such power was a thing for the little prince to marvel at. If he had been master of such complete authority, he would have been able to watch the sunset, not forty-four times in one day, but seventy two, or even a hundred, or even two hundred times,without ever having to move his chair. And because he felt a bit sad as he remembered his little planet which he had forsaken, he plucked up his courage to ask the king a favor: "I should like to see a sunset… Do me that kindness…Order the sun to set…" "If I ordered a general to fly from one flower to another like a butterfly, or to write a tragic drama, or to change himself into a sea bird, and if the general did not carry out the order that he had received, which one of us would be in the wrong?" the king demanded. "The general, or myself?" "You," said the little prince firmly. "Exactly. One must require from each one the duty which each one can perform," the king went on. "Accepted authority rests first of all on reason. If you ordered your people to go and throw themselves into the sea, they would rise up in revolution. I have the right to require obedience because my orders are reasonable." "Then my sunset?" the little prince
1.这是一本充满童趣的书。当看到“Grown-ups are like that…”会一遍遍自省,当看到“who never in his life had let go of a question once he had asked it.”会会心一笑,可不是么,小朋友就是这样。 2.这是一本充满哲思的书。 在花的眼里,它这样形容来来往往的人,“The wind blows them away. They have no roots, and that makes their life very difficult.”;还有这句 “It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."唯有用心才能洞察一切。 3.这是一本充满爱意的书。 小狐狸对小王子说“The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat.” 4.这是一本充满诗意的书。 如“It is such a secret place, the land of tears.”,“when a coil of gold, the color of the moonlight,flashed across the sand.” 5.这是一本带有地理科普的书。 点灯人的故事描述了星球自转快慢与白天黑夜的切换频度,引申到地球上最先进入白天和黑夜的地方。 6.这是一本想象力丰富的书。 如小王子自己的星球很小,也到访了很多很小的星球;如用火山做早餐。 书不长,抱着学英语的心,却收获了人生哲理,感觉很棒。
The thing that is important is the thing that is not seen.
finally, he understands the true meaning of existentialism, nothing has inherent meaning in the world, it was our interpretation that gives significance to our existence and everything around us.
