E.B.懷特《夏洛的網》的讀后感

　　內容簡介：

　　《夏洛的網》是美國作家E.B.懷特所著的三部被譽為“二十世紀讀者最多、最受愛戴的童話”之一。

　　在 朱克曼家的谷倉里，快樂地生活著一群動物，其中小豬威爾伯和蜘蛛夏洛建立了最真摯的友誼。然而，一個最丑惡的消息打破了谷倉的平靜：威爾伯未來的命運 競是成為熏肉火腿。作為一只小豬，悲痛絕望的威爾伯似乎只能接受任人宰割的命運了，然而，看似渺小的夏洛卻說：“我救你。”于是，夏洛用自己的絲在豬欄 上織出了被人類視為奇跡的網上文字，徹底逆轉了威爾伯的命運，終于讓它在集市的大賽中贏得特別獎，和一個安享天命的未來。但，這時，蜘蛛夏洛的生命卻走 到了盡頭……

　　Chapter 13.Good Progress

　　【段落賞析】

　　Lurvy picked up a pitchfork and walked away to get some clean straw. Having such an important pig was going to mean plenty of extra work, he could see that.

　　Below the apple orchard, at the end of a path, was the dump where Mr. Zuckerman threw all sorts of trash and stuff that nobody wanted anymore. Here, in a small clearing hidden by young alders and wild raspberry bushes, was an astonishing pile of old bottles and empty tin, cans and dirty rags and bits of metal and broken bottles and broken hinges and broken springs and dead batteries and last month's magazines and old discarded dishmops and tattered overalls and rusty spikes and leaky pails and forgotten stoppers and useless junk of all kinds, including a wrong-size crank for a broken ice-cream freezer.
