1、精选优质文档-倾情为你奉上Chapter1Summary: Jane Eyre was always ill-treated at Gateshead Hall where her aunt, Mrs. Reed and her cousins-Eliza, John and Georgiana lived. Once, she was reading on the window-seat behind a curtain. John came and drove her away. To her anger, she defended herself, but her aunt came a
2、nd commanded to lock her in the red-room.Feelings: I feel really bad for Jane as a child at her age. Imagine if I were her at that time, I may give myself up and die early. Even if facing such bad situation, she still loved reading. I admire her very much.Chapter2Summary: Jane was dragged away by tw
3、o servants, Bessie and Miss Abbot, and locked in the red-room. It was the place where her Uncle Reed died. Thus, the whole atmosphere reminded her of ghosts. She couldnt stand it anymore and passed out.Feelings: I cant help feeling that Jane was suffering some kind of mental disease because her aunt
4、 and cousins attitude towards her. Poor little child! I hope some time in the future it can be healed.Chapter3Summary: The doctor Mr. Lloyd came to see if Jane was OK. He asked her whether she would like to go to school or not and that was all. Meanwhile, Miss Abbot told Bessie about Jane. Her mothe
5、r was Mr. Reeds sister. She married a nearly penniless clergyman, and her father was furious and had nothing more to do with her. They went away to work among poor people, caught typhoid, and died when Miss Jane was a baby, so she was sent to Gateshead Hall. Bessie felt sorry after hearing these.Fee
6、lings: Jane was sure unfortunate, but to some extent, she was really lucky. She had someone like Bessie who cared about her. I think Jane will start a new life at school.Chapter4Summary: Jane was introduced to a schools headmaster Mr. Brocklehurst. Her aunt talked bad about her to that tall, grim ma
7、n, which means her school life didnt have a good beginning.Feelings: I just feel sick for Mrs. Reeds behavior. One cannot judge others no matter what, let alone she was Janes aunt. What she had done could probably destroy Janes whole life!Chapter5Summary: Jane arrived at a school at Lowood. The livi
8、ng condition there was really poor. Girls there only had a little food to eat and some of it couldnt be called as “food”. But there was a teacher called Miss Miller who cared about the girls, ordering extra bread and cheese for them.Feelings: I wonder why on earth there was a school like that in the
9、 past. What kind of parents would send their children to hell on earth? I am worried about Jane right now.Chapter6Summary: Helen was a friend of Jane when she was at school. There was a teacher called Miss Scatcherd who was always directed against Helen. She scolded Helen whenever she had a chance.
10、But Helen was pretty positive towards these. She believed that since life was short, we should be happy.Feelings: Helen had a strong character as a kid. I think that must due to her early experience as an orphan. She could face anything peacefully. Many adults cant do that in my opinion.Chapter7Summ
11、ary: Mr. Brocklehurst announced to all the girls in the school that Jane was a liar and he warned them against her. But Helen trusted her and gave her courage.Feelings: Its rude to say bad things about others no matter in front of them or behind their backs. Mr. Brocklehursts behavior can be really
12、hurtful.Chapter8Summary: Miss Temple was another person who chose to believe Jane. She asked Mr. Lloyd whether Janes side of story was true. As Mr. Lloyd convinced Janes word, Miss Temple announced to the school that Jane was innocent of Mr. Brocklehursts charges against her.Feelings: Miss Temple is
13、 that kind of person who gives you a light of hope when you are truly down. Its a great luck to have such a person be your side and support you. I think Miss Temple will influence Jane throughout her lifetime.Chapter9Summary: Typhoid fever struck Lowood when spring came. Thus, many of the students w
14、ere kept apart. Helen was also ill, not typhoid but with consumption. Knowing Helen might die soon, Jane couldnt help tiptoeing to the room Helen stayed in to be with her as her last company. They spent a night together and Helen died in Janes arm during her dream.Feelings: Helens death was a great
15、loss for Jane in my opinion. But anyhow, Helens spirit leaves a deep impression on me, and I believe, on everyone who has ever read this book.Chapter10Summary: Soon after the typhoid, there was an inquiry, which brought to light the truth about Lowood with its wretched clothing, poor food, and bad c
16、onditions. Lowood was put into the care of kind and sensible trustees, and both diet and clothing improved. After six years of study there, Jane became a teacher. After her tutor both in study and in life, Miss Temple, get married and left, Jane decided to leave as well. On her last night at Lowood,
17、 Bessie visited her with her son Bobby. She brought the news about Gateshead to Jane.Feelings: Its time for Jane to find a new place to go. She had been at Lowood for so many years and she should search for some new opportunity and start a new life at Thornfield Hall.Chapter11Summary: On arriving at
18、 Thornfield Hall, Jane met the house keeper Mrs. Fairfax and her student Adele whose guardian was Mr. Edward Fairfax Rochester, who was also the owner of the house. She also met a solidly built servant called Grace Poole.Feelings: I guess Jane can live an at least comfortable life here at Thornfield
19、 Hall since nobody is after her. Janes bright new life starts right now.Chapter12Summary: Jane met Mr. Rochester on her way to post a letter. Mr. Rochester sprained his ankle in the lane.Feelings: Its a pretty strange way to meet your employer the first time like that. I bet there would be interesti
20、ng stories between them.Chapter13Summary: Adele was having a lot of trouble concentrating when she knows Mr. Rochester was downstairsshe kept trying to sneak downstairs to see him or to guess what presented he might have brought her. Mr. Rochester and Jane talked about Janes early experiences and Mr
21、. Rochester called Jane as elf. Thus, Jane considered Mr. Rochester changeful and abrupt.Feelings: I kind of feel the same as Jane did. How could an almost stranger say such rude thing during our first chat? If I were Jane, I might be really angry.Chapter14Summary: One evening, Rochester sent for Ja
22、ne and Adele after dinner. Suddenly, because she was staring at him, Rochester asked Jane if she thought hes handsome. Without thinking, she gave an honest answer: no. Rochester told her that hes feeling chatty tonight, and ordered Jane to chat with him about something. While Jane and Rochester had
23、been talking, Adele had run out to try on one of the dresses that were among her new presents from Rochester. When she comes back and frolics around in the dress, she looks just like her mother.Feelings: I dont know why but I just feel that the whole conversation between them is super intense and ki
24、nd of awkward to me.Chapter15Summary: One day when Mr. Rochester and Jane were wandering in the garden, Mr. Rochester talked about Adeles mother, Celine Varens. That evening, Jane finds Rochester asleep in his bed with the curtains and his bedclothes on fire, and she puts out the flames and rescues
25、him.Feelings: I feel like the relationship between Jane and Mr. Rochester is changing-I see something about love.Chapter16Summary: Mrs. Fairfax told Jane that Mr. Rochester was taking a trip to Mr. Eshtons house which was filled with girls who were fond of Mr. Rochester, especially Blanche Ingram, L
26、ord Ingrams daughter. After hearing this, Jane was pretty sure that Mr. Rochester would not be with her no matter what, so she became really sad.Feelings: I dont think Mr. Rochester is that kind of guy who only cares about money and beauty to be honest. And if he has feelings for Jane, he may marry
27、her.Chapter17Summary: Everyone spends the three days making frantic preparations for all the guests. When they rode up, some in carriages and some on horses, a beautiful woman in a purple dress was riding beside Rochester. Its Blanche Ingram! The visitors enter, and Jane sat with Adele, half-listeni
28、ng to their noise and trying to keep Adele from running down and bothering them. Blanche and Rochester sang a song, and Jane wanted to leave, but shes mesmerized by Rochesters voice. As soon as he finished, she slipped out into the hallway. Rochester came out after Jane and asked why she didnt come
29、and talk to him in the drawing room. He wanted her to come back, but he could tell shes about to cry, so he let her go.Feelings: Now I am more than sure that Jane was in love with Mr. Rochester completely. Its obvious that Miss Blanches heart is not as beautiful as her appearance, so basically Mr. R
30、ochester wont choose her over Jane.Chapter18Summary: With Rochester absent, a stranger arrived at Thornfield. The stranger, whose name was Mason, claimed to be an old friend of Mr. Rochesters. Later that day, a strange gypsy woman arrived, offering to tell their fortunes. Blanche Ingram went first.
31、Everyone waited excitedly for her to come back and tell them what the woman said, but when she did come back she said the woman was obviously a fraud. The servant, Sam, told Jane that the gypsy woman said she knew theres another single woman in the group, and that she thought that must mean her. Jan
32、es curious about the woman, so she went to see her and had her own fortune told.Feelings: Though I wonder who Mason was, Im more excited about the story between Jane and that “gypsy woman”. It could be really interesting!Chapter19Summary: Jane entered the library and saw the old gypsy woman reading
33、a prayer-book by the fire. Her hat and handkerchief threw shadows over her face. The gypsy asked Jane about Mr. Rochester, and when she didnt say much in response, the gypsy suggested that Mr. Rochester was in love with Blanche Ingram. Jane admitted that the rumor was that Rochester and Blanche were
34、 engaged, but corrected the woman on one thingthey were not in love. In a moment, the womans voice changedthe old gypsy woman was Mr. Rochester in disguise, and hes just been messing with everyone. She told him about Masons arrival, and hes so horrified that he couldnt even stand up anymore. Then, J
35、ane called Mason to meet Mr. Rochester in the room.Feelings: From this chapter, Im happy to see that Mr. Rochester loved Jane too and he wanted to see if Jane had the same feelings as he did. From our point of view, they both love each other more than anything. However, Mr. Rochesters behavior shows
36、 that Masons presence means something terrible has happened, or will happen.Chapter20Summary: Everyone in the house is woken up by all the noise. The guests stumble around in the corridor in their robes, but nobody seems to know whats going on. Jane gets dressed, then sits by the window waiting. Mr.
37、 Rochester knocks on her door and asks her to come with him. He sends Jane back to get a sponge and some salts. Rochester tells Jane to stay with Mason and to make sure he stays awake, but not to talk to him at all for any reason. He gives her the sponge, which is bloody now, so that she can tend to
38、 the wound a little, too. For a long time, Jane stays there, wiping blood, trying to keep him conscious. Rochester says that he warned Mason, and Mason should have listened. Mason says he thought he could have done something to make things better. While Mason is sent away, Rochester and Jane are lef
39、t alone together outside the house, and he asks her to walk with him in the woods as the sun is rising before they go back to Thornfield Hall.Feelings: Mason is bitten by somebody! Who on earth he is? Why he comes to Thornfield? Who is the person that bites Mason? Whats their relationship with Mr. R
40、ochester? There are still lots of answers to be found.Chapter21Summary: One afternoon, Jane is visited by Mr. Reeds coachman. He tells Jane that John Reed is dead and that Mrs. Reed had a stroke when she heard. Jane goes in to see Mrs. Reed, who is lying ill in bed. Mrs. Reed is still harsh and bad-
41、tempered, but she does want Jane to stay so that they can talk things over. As shes dying, Mrs. Reed apologizes to Jane for concealing a letter from Janes uncle, John Eyre, which came three years ago. Mrs. Reed lets Jane read the letter, in which John asked where Jane was so that he could write a wi
42、ll making her the heir of his fortune when he died. Then Mrs. Reed admits something else: she wrote to John Eyre and told him Jane died of typhoid at Lowood.Feelings: Mrs. Reeds behavior crossed the line. No matter what she has no right to conceal Janes letter from her uncle. She could treat Jane ba
43、dly, but when somebody else wants to treat her like his own child, she just robbed her chance away? Thats not what elder people should do to her child.Chapter22Summary: Jane goes back to Thornfield. During the next two weeks, its pretty quiet and seems like Mr. Rochester is busy preparing his weddin
44、g with Blanche Ingram.Feelings: Sometimes things are not like what it seems to be. Im sure it is Jane who Mr. Rochester really loves and the bride is going to be Jane instead of Blanche Ingram.Chapter23Summary: Rochester asks Jane to walk with him. Jane and Rochester sit on the bench under the chest
45、nut tree. Rochester asks her to marry him. And of course, Jane agrees.Feelings: Looks like what I guess finally comes true. But everything is just way too perfectChapter24Summary: The next morning, Jane is blissfully happy and wonders if this is all a dream. Rochester starts telling Jane about all t
46、he fancy jewelry and clothes hes going to give her. She looks him in the eye, and tells him that, if he keeps decking her out in expensive clothes and jewelry and behaving so badly about it, shell never wear anything he buys her.Feelings: The dialogues between them are cute and full of sweetness. Th
47、ey could have a successful marriage.Chapter25Summary: The previous evening, Jane went to bed, but couldnt sleep. She thought she could hear a weird howling sound in the wind. When Jane woke up, there was a burning candle on the table in her room. Then Jane noticed that her closet door was open and s
48、omeone was messing with her wedding dress and veil. Jane sat up in bed, shocked: the woman wasnt anyone she knew at Thornfield, but someone else, a stranger. The stranger was a tall woman with long, dark hair dressed in white; her face was disturbing, with bloodshot red eyes, swollen, dark lips, and
49、 thick black eyebrows. The strange woman was wearing Janes wedding veil, and, as Jane watched, the woman pulled it off, tore it in half, and trampled on it. Jane asks Mr. Rochester who the woman is. Rochester says that she imagined this nightmarish creature. Janes not really satisfied with this explanation, but
