【正文】 e of the vast world, London, working in the warehouse as a coolie. He could not endure in the circumstances, and then escaped to his unique relative, Miss Betsey.David suffers a lot from a child, but he also gets many loves from his mother and the servant, Peggotty. That he appears a specific person, weak and immature, but very kind and aggressive. Weakness of David CopperfieldDavid’s mother was a woman similar to Dora who even did not know how to do housework. But her fate was different from Dora. When she came across Murdstone who treated her badly, her weakness appeared. David got this character from his poor mother being a child. When he first met Steerforth, he was such a little and poor boy and David never went against him. “It certainly had not occurred to me before, but I said, Yes” (Dickens, 1981: 78) to him. Facing the graceful and intelligent Steerforth, David was so nervous in their small party with Steerforth and his friends. “Being a little embarrassed at first, and feeling much too young to preside, I made Steerforth take the head of the table when dinner was announced” (Dickens, 1981: 331).As he is no more than a child, he really does not have that power or capability to change what he suffers from Mr. and Miss Murdstone, two gloomy devils in David’s world. It can be imagined what a difficult situation little David is in. It is natural for him to show weakness and timidity when facing the cruel world. Immaturity of David CopperfieldDavid fell in love with Little Emily when they panied each other in the days in Yarmouth. David “l(fā)oved that baby quite as truly, quite as tenderly with great purity than can enter into the best love of a later time of life, high and ennobling as it is” (Dickens, 1981: 34). Then being a young man, David engaged himself in pursuit of Dora, a beautiful and lovely girl, without thinking of their future life after they got married. Then, problems turned up. Dora could not do the simple housework and she even did not know why David worked for several hours a day and never spared some time with her. This kind of wife was not what David need, and choosing such a “child wife” was due to young David’s immaturity and impulsion. When he talked about Steerforth with Mr. Peggotty, he said that Steerforth “knows a task if he only looks at it. He is the beat cricketer you ever saw” (Dickens, 1981: 131). This unreasonable and blind admiration to Steerforth shows David’s immaturity. All of these facts give the best explanation to David’s immaturity. Kindness of David Copperfield Although David meets in his life so many bad persons like Mr. and Miss. Murdestone, Mr. Creakle and Uriah Heep, he also has a lot of sincere friends and helpers who make David still a kindhearted one. That is to say, though he has known some bad qualities of the people, David remains what he used to be.Peggotty was the servant in David’s family, and she helped David and his weak mother a lot when they were oppressed and exploited by Mr. Murdstone. When David was sent away from home, Peggotty wrote letters to encourage him. David appreciated her so much, so he permitted the carrier Barkis to marry her, considering Peggotty’s happiness. Agnes was David’s good friend, just like an older sister in his deep heart. Everything happened to her would make David anxious. When he knew Uriah Heep’s evil thought, he even could not sleep well. “I never shall forgot how I turned and tumbled。 how I considered what could I do, and what ought I to do” (Dickens, 1981: 352). This kindness of him also showed in his connection with Steerforth. Agnes reminded David to be away from Steerforth. But, after that, David got “so much punction for having ever wronged him even by a shapeless thought” (Dickens, 1981: 401). That is also David’s kindness. To David Copperfield, kindness is rooted in his mind even from his birth. Stability and Maturity of Adult David Copperfield Through so much difficulties and troubles, David became steady in his adulthood. In his profession, his love and his friendship, David all found his best answers. He lived with stability and maturity in his mind. Regarding his career, David went on along a right road. He took to the literature and had fun in what he did. David became more and more confident with the success in his career. David knew that his dream came true by his years’ hard work. And after his “child wife” died, David decided to give his most sincere love to Agnes, his “good angel”. However, he was hesitant before Agnes. He did not dare to tell her “I love you”. Because he knew what the three words meant, he did not want to hurt Agnes. He held the thought that “it was for me to guard this sisterly affection with religious care” (Dickens, 1981: 457). And for David, Agnes was no doubt his best choice. Agnes was the light shined on his way. She was the source of every worthy aspiration, the center of his life and the right person he founded his love on a rock. For all the efforts David had taken, he deserved the love of Agnes. With Agnes’ love and guide, David would make his life better and became more mature and steady in his life. David also found the true friendship in his life. His old classmate, Tradle, who was the merriest and most miserable of all the boys at school, appeared
