The novel's plot is just like this.The human nature passes through the book. There are so many vivid art characters in the fiction who did not only live in nineteenth century,but also live in the present age.Their human nature is separated into two parts that are elegant and ngly.The elegant human natwe is remembered by us forever and will not be diluted by the change of time.The other one should be forbidden.
David,the main character,Was diligent,sincere and kind.Diligent as he was,he was never conquered by his miserable life and the bad human nature around him.He helped others sincerely,even though he earned only sisx shillings a week.The fact,however,makes me sad that fewer and fewer people are sincere to others nowadays.The furthest distance in the world seems to be the distance between two hearts.I think the world would be come an earthly paradise if there were loss madicionsness and cunningness.
Pegotty was kind and loyal all the time.Her kindness came fromher heart withont and impurity.Someone thinks whether his purpose will be completed or what benefit he will get at first now matter what he does.He is selfish.He must feel ashamed after reading about peggotty's noble morality.
Steerforth's nature was really ughy.He made friends with David and pretented to be outstanding in order to cheat his innocent friends.However,David regarded him friendly,although he had cheated his best friend;Ham tried his best to save him in the big waves and lost his life,although he cheated his girlfriend.Many people in our actually society are as cunning as him.They pretend to be outstanding and friendly to their friends to get their trust,then their evil plan start.They will run away after completing their purpose.
My spirit was accepting a baptism while I was reading the novel.I saw a great number of diligent souls shining in the foggy weather,and the mists disappearing gradually.
