"The Scholars" is a novel with intellectuals as the main description object, and it is also a typical satirical novel. It describes some images of Confucian scholars who were deeply poisoned by the eight-part imperial examination system. For example, it is written that Zhou Jin and Fan Jin spent their entire lives trying to pass the examination, and even when their beards turned gray, they still failed to pass the examination. Although life was extremely difficult, he still couldn't forget the imperial examination. Zhou Jin passed by an examination room and went in to watch. He was touched by a lifetime of bitterness and pain. He burst into tears and was so sad that he could not help but feel miserable. Later, with the help of some small businessmen, he took the exam and won the sympathy of the examiner, and things turned around. When he passed the exam, those who had ridiculed him in the past came to flatter him and praised him as the most knowledgeable person. Another example is Fan Jin. Before he passed the imperial examination, his family was so poor that he had no rice to cook with, so he went to the market to sell an old hen. When he learned that he had won the election, he was so happy that he became a madman. Fortunately, his father-in-law Hu Tuhu slapped him and he regained consciousness. At this time, the local squires and other prominent people all looked at him with admiration. Some gave him houses and some gave him property. Fan Jin's life immediately changed... And so on, which reflected the corruption of the secular customs at that time. On the one hand, it truly reveals the process and reasons for the corruption of human nature, thereby deeply criticizing and ridiculing the corruption of officialdom at that time, the shortcomings of imperial examinations, and the hypocrisy of ethics; on the other hand, it passionately praises the protection of human nature by a few characters by insisting on themselves, thus embodying the author's ideals.

"Interlude" is Virginia Woolf's final work, which is unique in both language and form. The author is good at using the writing technique of stream of consciousness, and depicts a large number of people's inner illusions and subconsciousness in the novel; he is very skillful in the use of rhetorical techniques, including alliteration, end rhyme, homophony, etc.; And he quotes a large number of words and allusions from classic literature in the book, which shows his extraordinary language skills and superb artistic skills. The characters depicted in the book behave differently, and each has their own misfortunes flowing in their hearts. However, all misfortunes and pains ultimately originate from the common weakness of human nature-the inner desires cannot be satisfied, and there is not much difference between people after all. So when the director of the play, Ms. Latrube, introduced "reality" into the play, all the audiences were confused and unable to bear the weight of this "reality". I can calmly watch the lives of others being performed on the stage, but I cannot look directly at myself in public. Perhaps Woolf also lost faith in this reality, seeing through the cowardice of human nature but unable to change anything, so she chose to end her struggle with this contradictory world and chose "peace" among the three realms of life.

"Pride and Prejudice" is Jane Austen's masterpiece. This work uses daily life as the material. It goes against the content and artificial writing methods of sentimental novels that were popular in the society at that time. It vividly reflects the conservative and closed-off British rural life and world conditions from the end of the 18th century to the beginning of the 19th century. Although "Sense and Sensibility" is Jane Austen's first novel, her writing skills are already quite proficient. The novel takes the tortuous and complicated marriage turmoil of the two heroines as the main line, and raises issues of moral and behavioral norms through the humorous comparison of "reason and emotion". Every plot in the story has been ingeniously conceived by the author. The superficial causal relationship and the underlying reasons hidden behind the scenes are all natural and reasonable. Emma, ​​the protagonist of "Emma", is a beautiful, intelligent and wealthy girl, and she is also an out-and-out dreamer. She enthusiastically pays attention to the romantic stories around her, but stubbornly believes that she will never fall into them. She took it upon herself to direct love affairs again and again for the orphan Harriet. When Harriet mistakenly thought she was in love with the magistrate Mr. Knightley, Emma was shocked to realize that she was also in love with Mr. Knightley. Although this was contrary to the vow she had announced from the beginning that she would never marry, she had to give up her innocent vow when she fell in love. "Sanditon" This book includes Austen's unfinished novel "Sanditon" and the novella "Lady Susan". "Sanditon" was Austen's final work, and she died after writing only twelve chapters. "Lady Susan" is one of Austen's early epistolary novels. It describes the widow Lady Susan's plan to find a new husband for herself and also decides to marry off her daughter, which fully demonstrates Austen's satirical characteristics. In addition, this book fully demonstrates her accurate grasp of the character's psychology and has an unexpected Austen-style ending.
