Impression of “Great Expectations” In my opinion, Pip's inner battles of will have something to do with the social background of Victorian England. Although most people were satisfied with the industrial and political preeminence of England during the Victorian era, they also suffered from a sense of anxiety, a sense of empty, and a sense of alienation, the speed of the development in technology was beyond the mental adaptive faculty of people. 　As far as I'm concerned, this moral dilemma not only appears in Victorian England. Nowadays, on one hand, China becomes increasingly important in the global stage, on the other hand, such progress in commerce and industry led to neglect of some social problems. 　We don't have to look far afield to find "Pips" in our everyday life. For instance, some girls would pinch and scrape for half a year or more to buy an LV bag. As far as I'm concerned, the orientation of brand should meet the needs of target customers' experience. Obviously, schoolgirls are not targeting customers of LV bags. What's more, most of the schoolgirls can't "understand" the bag either. Most of the time, they bought the bags not because they think those bags are beautiful but because of the logo. "Something darkly humorous and tragic lies at the heart of a scene where a completely oblivious individual stages a ridiculous spectacle and does not hear the laughs enjoyed at his expense." However, if there's no sneer at all, should we feel relaxed? 　In today's China, one's social status does not depend on his interior quality but his consumption: the band of his suits, the the location of his house, the number of his private yacht,etc. If Pip had lived in today's China, he would not have felt uneasy in the party of the upper class. Of course, the premise is that he has purchased an AUDI A 8 or a Rolls Royce for example no matter where the money came. 　Shakespeare once said, "One night, we can build a nouveau riche, three generations to cultivate an aristocrat." In China, there's no need of aristocratic system, which gives priority to a few. Instead, we are looking forward to the noble spirit, which not only concerns individual interests but also safeguards social justice for the spirit of the age represents the taste of the time.
