Great expectations

My book of Great Expectations is not the original, but a simplified version of the Bookworm series.But it also describes most of the original work.After reading this book, I think it is really a good book.There are many reasons hidden here, and the content has changed. The Great Expectations is called greatexpectations in English.It was written by the British writer, Charles Dickens.The protagonist is named Pip, and the story begins with Pip meeting a fugitive in a churchyard in a small village. The fugitive Abel Magweather had just escaped from a prison boat.He is so hungry that he forces Pip to bring him food.Very scared, Pip gives the fugitive food.No one had thought that the fugitive had changed Pip's life. Pip falls in love with a high-class girl and begins to lose his peace.He was ashamed to be his sister's husband, his best friend, a blacksmith, and the rest of the village.Pip was delighted when he knew that he was given a large sum of money to get his higher education.He felt that he was finally worthy of the young lady.He left the village and left his friends.He forgot the fugitive as a child and went to London to study. Later, when he found out that the large sum of money for his education was the hard work after the escape again, he trembled with disgust, and he regretted leaving his original good friend and going with the fugitive.Then a series of things happened.I don't want to go into more detail here. People always want to compare with their friends around them, if they are rich, we certainly want to have money, on the contrary, if they are poor, then we do not care about the same poor, this is probably human nature.We are not ashamed of our stupidity, we are only ashamed of being more stupid than our friends around us.It was because he had been ashamed of communicating with the upper ladies that he hated the friends he had been with before. If we don't want to have it, we won't be frustrated by losing it.Since we do not expect to be rich, we will not be disappointed by poverty. Those who know content are the happiest.There is no end to the pursuit of material things, so we need to have a clear mind to recognize what we need and what we do not need to need.
