Social philosopher, utopian, novelist, and "father" of science fiction and science fantasy, Herbert George Wells was born on September 21, 1866, in Bromley, Kent. His father was a poor businessman, and young Bertie's mother had to work as a lady's maid. Living "below stairs" with his mother at an estate called Uppark, Bertie would sneak into the grand library to read Plato, Swift, and Voltaire, authors who deeply influenced his later works. He shoed literary and artistic talent in his early stories and paintings, but the family had limited means, and when he was fourteen years old, Bertie was sent as an apprentice to a dealer in cloth and dry goods, work he disliked.
He held jobs in other trades before winning a scholarship to study biology at the Normal School of Science in London. The eminent biologist T. H. Huxley, a friend and proponent of Darwin, was his teacher; about him Wells later said, "I believed then he was the greatest man I was ever likely to meet." Under Huxley's influence, Wells learned the science that would inspire many of his creative works and cultivated the skepticism about the likelihood of human progress that would infuse his writing.
Teaching, textbook writing, and journalism occupied Wells until 1895, when he made his literary debut with the now-legendary novel The Time Machine, which was followed before the end of the century by The Island of Dr. Moreau, The Invisible Man, and The War of the Worlds, books that established him as a major writer. Fiercely critical of Victorian mores, he published voluminously, in fiction and nonfiction, on the subject of politics and social philosophy. Biological evolution does not ensure moral progress, as Wells would repeat throughout his life, during which he witnessed two world wars and the debasement of science for military and political ends.
In addition to social commentary presented in the guise of science fiction, Wells authored comic novels like Love and Mrs. Lewisham, Kipps, and The History of Mister Polly that are Dickensian in their scope and feeling, and a feminist novel, Ann Veronica. He wrote specific social commentary in The New Machiavelli, an attack on the socialist Fabian Society, which he had joined and then rejected, and literary parody (of Henry James) in Boon. He wrote textbooks of biology, and his massive The Outline of History was a major international bestseller.
By the time Wells reached middle age, he was admired around the world, and he used his fame to promote his utopian vision, warning that the future promised "Knowledge or extinction." He met with such preeminent political figures as Lenin, Roosevelt, and Stalin, and continued to publish, travel, and educate during his final years. Herbert George Wells died in London on August 13, 1946.

暮菖蘭是個瀟灑的姑娘,我一直這麼覺得,作為唯一活下來的人她又是最痛苦的一個,穿機後再去看第一版宣傳CG纔明白那三杯酒的含義,滴在酒中的淚,祭奠一份永遠逝去的歡笑經曆。也許大傢並不喜歡她為瞭錢不惜齣賣情報的作為,但看到暮靄村劇情我覺得我又可以理解,作為仙劍的主角,每一個人身上總是背負瞭些什麼,好在他們總是有情有義的。
評分英文故事書,還不錯,還是有破損。

俗話說文無定法,寫書評當然也無一定的格式,可以因人而異,因書而異。比如偏於談感受的書評就可以直接從述感開頭:“何建明的長篇報告文學《中國高考報告》是一部具有強烈震撼力的作品。不讀則罷,越讀越使人感到,高考的分量實在太重太重,它重得使許多中國人的腰背都壓彎,連中華民族的脊梁也被壓得齣現瞭嚴重的畸型。高考啊!何時纔能走齣怪圈?”(《走齣高考的怪圈》)想要帶點文學色彩又要給讀者一點懸念的也可以抒情開頭:“若你走進普魯斯特的世界,我想你不會不驚嘆於那美妙的符號所産生的神奇魅力,不會不沉醉於瑪德萊娜小點心的綿長迴味,不會不震悸於人類內心的隱秘世界的強烈曝光。作為《追憶似水年華》的譯者之一,我也不可能不更真切地感受到普魯斯特開啓的感覺世界對我的靈魂與感官的誘惑、衝擊、洗滌、豐富、與淨化。“(《全新而永恒的感覺世界》)當然書評的結尾也不一定都要推薦式的。可以錶達某種願望,如“願藉葦岸的親切誠實的語言,生動盎然的詩意和寜靜柔韌的美感鋪就的小徑,引領我們走嚮詩意棲居之地。”
評分五前的遊戲長度大概較五代多齣瞭一倍,(五前我通關用瞭50小時,五隻用瞭30小時,後期同樣都動瞭修改器),長並不代錶就好,但五前的劇情並沒有“扯麻紗”的感覺。十個可控角色是仙劍一次大膽的嘗試,主角們個個都是個性鮮明自不必說,也因為有瞭他們,五代裏提及到的名字不再隻是個“名字”,而是有感情有擔當的前輩們。

評分如果沒有五前,我以為淩波隻是傻等情郎歸來的癡情傻女人,以為龍溟僅僅隻是個意外死在苗疆的哥哥,以為薑世離僅僅就是個對人類不滿的輕狂魔君而已。
