A good historical book resembles one side mirror, " human story " it is among them one of. The origin from the mankind tells about author room dragon each history period. It and general experience history are different, read like rising to resemble a novel interesting, make me be full of interest ground to look.
一本好的历史书就像一面镜子，《人类的故事》便是其中之一。作者房龙从人类的起源讲述到每一个历史时期。它与一般的历史书不同，读起来就像小说一样有趣，令我饶有兴致地看完了。
Fang Long begins to tell from ancient moment case, describe Egypt and beautiful Suobudamiya's civilized origin, tell about Greek with Roman times brilliant, develop along what the clew with arisen religion tells about mediaeval society and evolve, the arisen, renaissance from the city, tell about change cosmopolitanly and the revolution of each country.
房龙从远古时候开始讲起，描述埃及和美索不达米亚文明的起源，讲述希腊与罗马时代的辉煌，沿着宗教兴起的线索讲述到中世纪社会的发展和演变，从城市的兴起、文艺复兴、讲述到世界性的变革和各国的革命。
Ancient Egypt gives me a kind of uncanny sense all the time. Their mummy, law often lets me feel very mysterious with pyramid. Actually this is the one fraction of their culture only. There are a paragraph of such descriptions in the book: “ reachs the person's body to go up from Gu Ai, we acquired a lot of strange things, the method that for instance agriculture irrigates, build the skill of fane, the calendar of the invention. The fane outward appearance that they make is elegant, be regarded as contemporary church first model for painting, and the calendar that they invent is very accurate, make a bit after revising, still applying to today all the time. The most important is, they created a character, make we save a language to become a possibility. I must admire ” the wisdom of ancient Egyptian, they continue to today all the time to the influence of human history.
古埃及一直给我一种神秘的感觉。他们的木乃伊、法老和金字塔让我觉得十分不可思议。其实这只是他们文化的一小部分。书中有这样一段描述：“从古埃及人的身上，我们学到了很多新鲜东西，比如农业灌溉的方法，建造神庙的技巧，发明的日历。他们建造的神庙外观精美，被视为现代教堂的最初范本，而他们发明的日历非常准确，稍作修改后一直到今天仍在应用。最重要的是，他们创造了文字，使我们保存语言成为可能。”我不得不佩服古埃及人的智慧，他们对于人类历史的影响一直延续到今天。
Arrive from Nile Aegean, fang Long uses his magic pen again, take me to European mainland. Gu Xila's person learned the skill that makes his powerful gradually, solicited however the war with Persia person. Crossed Rome of a few centuries to turn powerful Rome into the empire from village of a hamlet again, another kind of civilization is born at this point. Lots and lots of the war made a story of another legend.
从尼罗河到爱琴海，房龙又用他有魔力的笔，把我带到欧洲大陆。古希腊人渐渐学会了使自己强大的本领，却招徕了与波斯人的战争。又过了几个世纪罗马从一个小村庄变成了强大的罗马帝国，另一种文明就此诞生。许许多多的战争成就了一个又一个传奇的故事。
In the book another attracts a composition my place is, it can let my gradually generation think. For example when Fang Long is introducing Gu Xila, he introduces Gu Xila's civilized origin first, introduce political system of Gu Xila again. The “ that he mentions Gu Xila's person is measurable ” principle, again derivative why ancient time has Gu Xila's person only this unique nation has this kind of qualitative element this problem, introduce the life condition of Gu Xila's person and their severe education next. Down such train of thought and clew, I am automatical the ground is pure no longer see those vivid history story.
书中另一个吸引作文我的地方是，它能让我渐渐地产生思考。例如房龙在介绍古希腊时，他先介绍古希腊文明的起源，再介绍古希腊的政治制度。他提到古希腊人的“适度”原则，再引出为什么古代只有古希腊人这独一无二的民族具备这种质素这个问题，然后介绍古希腊人的生活状态与他们严厉的教育。顺着这样的思路与线索，我自然而然地不再是单纯地看那些生动的历史故事。
Arrived mediaeval, human civilization crossed one stride ahead again, reached the height that cannot surmount, those who stay is that age thinking transcends spatio-temporal result, let my from the bottom of one's heart gasp in admiration. After that the thought development popular feeling as free, equal, democracy, the history developed new period. But after Industrial Revolution, the world produced the change of world-shaking. Fang Long says: “ this is a mean and shameless mental retardation times, the mankind also has done one pile folly. ” from ancient up to now, the mankind learned to think, created culture, also left a lot of regrets however. The war resembles feral beast, destroy the home of lots and lots of person beauty; The extreme is terroristic resemble aeriform devil, operating the one side with the darkest human nature; The environment pollutes the cancer cell that resembles pathological changes, the health of mother of ball of enroach on touchdown.
到了中世纪，人类文明又向前跨了一大步，达到了无法超越的高度，留下的是那个时代思想超越时空的产物，让我由衷的赞叹。而后随着自由、平等、民主的思想深入人心，历史发展到了新的时期。但在工业革命后，世界发生了翻天覆地的变化。房龙说：“这是一个卑鄙无耻的弱智时代，人类也做过一大堆蠢事。”从古至今，人类学会了思考，创造了文明，却也留下了许多遗憾。战争就像凶猛的野兽，毁坏许许多多人美丽的家园；极端恐怖主义就像无形的恶魔，操纵着人性最黑暗的一面；环境污染就像病变的癌细胞，侵害着地球母亲的健康。
Tang Taizong ever had said: “ can know to promote with Shi Weijian for, it is OK to be ancient bronze mirror with copper clothes and hat, it is OK to be ancient bronze mirror with the person bright gain and loss. ” knows the story that the mankind goes, since understands him, also be the process of a hunting. The backside of that each history truth, the truth with much under cover and wisdom. What we need to do, be changed ceaselessly with this namely and promote ego. After all the story of human future, be mastered for us.
唐太宗曾说过：“以史为鉴可以知兴替，以铜为鉴可以正衣冠，以人为鉴可以明得失。”了解人类过去的故事，既是了解自己，也是一个探求的过程。那一个个历史真相的背后，隐藏着大量的真理与智慧。我们所需要做的，就是以此不断地改变并提升自我。毕竟人类未来的故事，是为我们所掌握的。(文/欧太阳)
