Despite being (be) a sports journalist with a successful career ahead of him(前途光明), Mitch Albom fells that there is something missing from (丢失)his life. This all changes when he is reunited with (重逢)his favourite college professor, Morrie Schwartz. On discovering that Morrie is being weakened by a severe illness(得了重病,日渐虚弱), Mitch starts visiting him at his house on Tuesdays. The weekly (week) conversations between Mitch and Morrie result in(导致) a series of lessons on the meaning of life and how best to live it.
Tuesdays with Morrie
Arthur KThis book is about dying, but it is not pessimistic (optimistic). Indeed, it was a pleasant surprise to find that this book is filled with (be full of)joy and hope. Morrie’s bravery (brave) towards the end of his life is inspirational (inspire) and has made me value (value) my own life more. In fact, far from (毫不,远非)being a book about death, it’s a book about life. As Morrie says, “Once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.” As Morrie anticipates (expect) his own death, he observes everything as though (as if)through new eyes -- the things around him seem more beautiful than ever before and hold new meanings. From his window, he watches each season change, knowing (know) it could be his last. This encourages us to appreciate what we have, and to make the most of each day(过好每一天).
Amy WangI think this book should be on all school reading lists. After finishing it, I feel I have been given a deeper insight into (对...有更深刻的认识)the world and can see things from a different point of view(从不同角度). On the 11th Tuesday, Morrie explains that “...the big things - how we think, what we value - those you must choose yourself. You can’t let anyone - or any society - determine (decide)those for you”. While we are living, we tend to (倾向于)get distracted by unimportant things, such as gathering material possessions (物质财富). I think it’s important for young people to know that making a lot of money won’t always make them happy, or that looking different doesn’t make a person abnormal! It’s up to us to find out what is important in our lives and establish our own values (树立自己的价值观).
Morrie says that most people “seem half-asleep”, even when they’re doing things they think are important. Reading this book made me feel as if I’d been woken up from a long sleep (仿佛将我从长觉中唤醒了)and finally opened my eyes to the world!
MartyDespite its widespread recognition (广泛认可), my first impression was that Tuesdays with Morrie is just made up of (be composed of)a collection of over-emotional (过于感性的)thoughts and messages, many of which are repeated. But thinking back, it did teach me a lesson or two. The book made me stop and think about how much I am influenced by (受...影响)popular culture and the importance of creating my own values based (base) on love and open communication. Although it isn’t my favourite book. I’d still recommend that people read (read) it -- after all, it is something that’s a bit different!
Vivian Warning!A box of tissues (一盒纸巾) will be needed to get through (manage to do or complete)this book! Morrie’s reflections (reflect) on love and friendship made me think about my life and all the good friends that I’ve lost touch with (失联)along the way. It made me realise just how much I miss them. I guess that’s one of the lessons of the book -- always keep in touch with the good people you meet as you go through(experience, endure or suffer sth ) life. Like Mitch, Morrie makes you aware that you want to die feeling (feel) that you have lived life to the full(活得很充实), knowing (know) that you are loved and have loved others as much as you could. As Morrie’s favourite poet Auden said, “Love each other or perish.”
“Once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.”
