A Report of the Time

杨承志
The TimeMachine is a science fiction written by H. G. Wells, first published in 1895. The novel tells us a man who travelled through time by a special vehicle and his special experience in the future society.
The writer H. G. Wells was a socialist and a pacifist. This novel The Time Machine reflects Wells' s own
socialist political views. We can find it in the future world he described in the story.
This novel describes a time traveler to travel by inventing a time machine to the year AD 802701.There are two kinds of people. One kind ofpeople calledEloi. They are well dressed, doingnowork, and pursue an easy life. And the other kind of
strange white ape-like creatures the Eloi called Morlocks.This group of creatures lives underground. They are very cruel. When they come out of the underground in the night, they begin to kill and eat Eloi as their food.The time travelerhelps Eloi and fights against Morlocks. Morlockshidehis timemachine intoastatue,but He finally gets it, and use the machine into the future. But he makes some mistakes, and travels thirty million years into the future. He find the life is almost extinct at that time.However, he returns to the presenttime in the end.
In the story, the author describes two kinds of people. He compares the rich people in the present society
toEloi, and thepoor toMorlock.
Therelation between Eloi and Morlock likes the relation between the people at present society. It gives us awarning in some degree, and makes us to think about the peace life and our earth' s environment deeply. By the
descriptionof thirtymillionyears later,we can see the disadvantage of the pollution in present society would cause. In my opinion, we should protect our environment and treasu the peace life if we don' t want the future to be like that in the story.Although human conquer everything but with the extinction of the animals and plant. The earth will not be a home,but a hell.
