About love and responsibility
---- After reading
“
The Little
Prince
”
I
’
ve
heard
“
The
Little
Prince
”
when
I
was
a
pupil,
from
a
variety of the excellent
writings. I just know that it is a fairy tale,
which
narrates
a
lonely
and
sad
little
prince.
I
didn’
t
read
this
book until I became a
freshman.
That was
a
sun-shining
day.
I
went
to
my
friend
’
s
dormitory
and browsed his
shelve for something interesting to read. He said
to me,
“
I
consider that one book is suitable for you to
read,
”
Then
he
took
me
a
brand-new,
hard
cover
binging
book,
“’
The
Little
Prince
’
, is a
book worthy of treasuring and
tasting.
”
Afterwards I began my journey for
reading
“
The Little
Prince
”
.
This
book is trilingual (Chinese, English and French),
but I
’
ve just
read the Chinese. Now, I reread this
book in English as a result of
my
English homework. Although I have met a large
amount of new
words
and
indigestible
long
sentence,
I
benefited
a
lot.
For
example, when I compared
the translation to the original, I found
that it should be improved the accuracy
of the translation.
It seems say too
far, let
’
s come back to
“
The Little
Prince
”
.
The
story
’
s
narrator
is
a
pilot
who
cannot
found
someone
absolutely
understood
him,
because
the
adults
’
world
was
too
much emphasis on reality and vanity. He
told us about his dreamy
meeting
with
the
little
prince
due
to
failure
of
aircraft
forced
to
land in the Sahara
Desert.
The
mysterious
little
prince
came
from
another
small
planet
named
“
B-612
”
. The author
told us that the story about the little
prince and his pretentious, babyish
beautiful rose. Besides, why
the little
prince left his planet, which planets did he visit
before
the
earth?
According
to
his
words,
we
know
the
little
prince
’
s
adventures on six planets; we know he
met the nominal king, the
conceited
man, the drunkard, the businessman, the
geographer,
the fox, and so on.
Of
course, there
was the
author himself. The
author and the
little
prince
processed
their
precious
friendship
in
the
desert.
When the little
prince left the earth, the author felt so sorrow
and
always missed their good time
together. Because of this, he wrote
this novel in order to remember his
real friend
—
the
little prince.
When I read this book, I
first saw a picture which looked like a
hat. But the author told us that was
not a hat but a boa constrictor
digesting an elephant. I was so
surprised! Then I had to admit, I
was
getting old. As the growth of the age, I more and
more close
to the group-ups world,
include the reality instead of fantasy, the
inertial thinking instead of innovative
thinking.
Therefore, after hearing the
little prince
’
s words - the
sheep in
the
box
was
exactly
the
way
he
wanted,
apart
from
feeling
astonished,
I
was
ashamed
of
my
poor
imagination.
Because
I
just saw a common box, I
didn
’
t imagine what was in
it. Perhaps
the group-ups would have
the same thoughts as me as a result of
that we always take something for
granted.
So, I was greatly agreed with
the idea of this book not only for
the
children but also for the adults.
The little prince told me so
much as well as impress me so much.
Now, let
’
s seek naive which
we lost, with move.
The
little prince
was lonely and sad,
because his planet
was
too
small and he was the only one in it. He said,
“
You know
—
one
loves the
sunset, when one is so
sad
…
”
That was to
say, the day
he
saw
the
sunset
forty-
four
times
he
felt
so
sorrow.
That
was
beyond
others comprehension.
Until
the
flower
appeared
did
his
life
changed.
That
was
a
beautiful
and
effeminate
rose,
which
different
from
others
that
have only one ring of petals appeared
in the grass in the morning
and
have
faded
peacefully
away
by
night.
The
flower
cast
her
fragrance and her radiance over the
little prince.
But at that time,
he didn
’
t know
all the affection that lay behind the
flower
’
s poor
little
stratagems.
“
Flowers
are
so
inconsistent!
But
I
was
too
young to know how to
love her
…
”
he
said. People always do such
things
that
having
lost
just
know
how
to
cherish
it
and
how
it
precious for us.
Left
his
planet,
the
little
prince
successively
traveled
for
six
stars,
and ran into some unreasonable adults, the
conceited king,
the
mercenary
businessman,
the
pedantic
lamplighter
…
Thereupon
he
constantly
regretted,
“The
grown
-ups
are
very
strange.”
In
here,
the
author
not
only
reflected
these
adults
’
emptiness, blind and folly, but also
revealed their loneliness.
In
the
last
place,
he
came
to
the
earth.
On
the
earth,
he
successively
met
the
snake,
the
flower
with
three
petals,
the
railway
switchman,
the
merchant,
and
the
garden
with
five
thousand roses, and of
course the fox.
Just
because
of
this
fox,
he
finally
solved
his
puzzle
about
love
from
his
flower.
The
fox
told
him,
“To
me,
you
are
still
nothing more than a
little boy who is just like a hundred thousand
other little boys. And I have no need
of you. And you, on y
our part,
have no need of me. To you, I am
nothing more than a fox like a
hundred
thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we
shall
need each other. To me, you will
be unique in all the world. To you,
I
shall be unique in all the world.”
“And now he
re is
my secret, a very simple secret. It is only
with
the
heart
that
one
can
see
rightly;
what
is
essential
is
