內(nèi)容簡介：

《夏洛的網(wǎng)》是美國作家E.B.懷特所著的三部被譽為“二十世紀讀者最多、最受愛戴的童話”之一。

在朱克曼家的谷倉里，快樂地生活著一群動物，其中小豬威爾伯和蜘蛛夏洛建立了最真摯的友誼。然而，一個最丑惡的消息打破了谷倉的平靜：威爾伯未來的命運競?是成為熏肉火腿。作為一只小豬，悲痛絕望的威爾伯似乎只能接受任人宰割的命運了，然而，看似渺小的夏洛卻說：“我救你?！庇谑?，夏洛用自己的絲在豬欄上織?出了被人類視為奇跡的網(wǎng)上文字，徹底逆轉(zhuǎn)了威爾伯的命運，終于讓它在集市的大賽中贏得特別獎，和一個安享天命的未來。但，這時，蜘蛛夏洛的生命卻走到了盡?頭……

作者簡介：

E.B.懷特(1899-1985)生于紐約蒙特弗農(nóng)，畢業(yè)于康奈爾大學。也許你對美國作家E.B.?懷特（E.B.White）感到陌生，也許你對《Charlotte's?Web》（《夏洛的網(wǎng)》）不是很熟悉，但是一提起一部電影《精靈鼠小弟》，你馬上就知道了，這部電影就是根據(jù)E.B.?懷特（E.B.White）的書改編拍攝的。他還有一部童話叫《吹小號的天鵝》

Chapter?12.?A?Meeting

【段落賞析】

Then?the?oldest?sheep?spoke?up.?“I?agree?that?there?should?be?something?new?written?in?the?web?if?Wilbur’s?life?is?to?be?saved.?And?if?Charlotte?needs?help?in?finding?words,?I?think?she?can?get?it?from?our?friend?Templeton.?The?rat?visits?the?dump?regularly?and?has?access?to?old?magazines.?He?can?tear?out?bits?of?advertisements?and?bring?them?up?here?to?the?barn?cellar,?so?that?Charlotte?can?have?something?to?copy.”

“Good?idea,”?said?Charlotte.?“But?I’m?not?sure?Templeton?will?be?willing?to?help.?You?know?how?he?is?–?always?looking?out?for?himself,?never?thinking?of?the?other?fellow.”

【段落點評】

簡潔流暢的文筆之下，整部小說中為數(shù)不多的兩個智者形象就躍然紙上。無論是Charlotte還是老山羊，都是擁有相當?shù)娜松啔v的年長智者。他們的智慧來自他們的經(jīng)驗，來自他們識人的目光。他們看待任何事都是從平日點滴出發(fā)的，不贅言，也不參雜過多的自身情感。作者對他們的語言描述也是間接清晰的，想來是為了他們的形象描繪大大下了一番工夫。精雕細琢之下才有如此這般讓人信服的智者，讓人感動的瞬間。
