选项
答案The growth of Robinson Crusoe: Robinson Crusoe changes a lot with his experiences and adventures. When he ran away from home, he was an inexperienced teenager and a young man full of bright fancies about the future. He naturally chose going to sea, because in those days it meant a chance to live a chivalrous life, to see the wonders of the world and to make a fortune. Since then he had a lot of adventures and he also grew from a naive and artless youth into a shrewd and hardened man, tempered by numerous trials in his e-ventful life. The characteristics of Robinson Crusoe: Robinson Crusoe is a real hero: a typical eighteenth-century English middle-class man, with a great capacity for work, inexhaustible energy, courage, patience and persistence in overcoming obstacles, in struggling against the hostile natural environment. He is a new man—a man sure of himself and sure of being able to establish himself anywhere in the world. He is a man of new age, in which doubt and uncertainty are replaced by hope and confidence. Robinson Crusoe is the enterpriser of this age. He is ready to command nature, his enemy, and to found his colony beyond the seas. He is a merchant-adventurer, interested in material profits. He is the colonist, the empire builder. Robinson Crusoe is an embodiment of the spirit of individual enterprise and colonial expansion of the rising bourgeoisie.
