The influence of war on human destiny. Unified State Exam Russian language

  1. A. S. Pushkin."Eugene Onegin". A person sometimes passes by without noticing his happiness. When the feeling of love arises in him, it becomes too late. This happened with Evgeny Onegin. At first he rejected the love of a village girl. Having met her a few years later, he realized that he was in love. Unfortunately, their happiness is impossible.
  2. M. Yu Lermontov."Hero of our time". True love Pechorin to Vera. His frivolous attitude towards Mary and Bela.
  3. And S. Turgenev."Fathers and Sons". Evgeny Bazarov denied everything, including love. But life forced him to experience this true feeling for Anna Odintsova. The stern nihilist could not resist the intelligence and charm of this woman.
  4. And A. Goncharov."Oblomov." Lyubov Oblomov Olga Ilyinskaya. Olga's desire to pull Ilya out of a state of indifference and laziness. Oblomov tried to find the purpose of life in love. However, the lovers' efforts were in vain.
  5. A. N. Ostrovsky. It is impossible to live without love. Proof of this is, for example, the deep drama that Katerina experienced, main character plays by A. N. Ostrovsky “The Thunderstorm”.
  6. I.A. Goncharov."Oblomov." Great power love is the theme of many writers. Often a person is able to change even his life for the sake of his loved one. However, this is not always possible. For example, Ilya Ilyich, the hero of the novel by I.A. Goncharov "Oblomov", for the sake of love, abandoned many of his habits. Olga, having experienced disappointment, leaves Oblomov. The mutually enriching development of their relationship did not work out, because the desire to vegetate “creeping from one day to another” turned out to be stronger for Ilya.
  7. L.N. Tolstoy. Love is a great feeling. It can change a person's life. But it can bring a lot of hope and disappointment. However, this condition can also transform a person. Such life situations were described by the great Russian writer L.N. Tolstoy in the novel "War and Peace". For example, Prince Bolkonsky, after life’s hardships, was convinced that he would never experience happiness or joy again. However, a meeting with Natasha Rostova changed his view of the world. Love is a great power.
  8. A. Kuprin. Sometimes it seems that poetry and the magical beauty of love are disappearing from our lives, that people’s feelings are diminishing. The story of A. Kuprin still amazes readers with faith in love “ Garnet bracelet" It can be called a moving hymn of love. Such stories help to maintain the belief that the world is beautiful, and that people sometimes have access to the inaccessible.
  9. I.A. Goncharov "Oblomov". The influence of friendship on the formation of personality is a serious topic that worried I. A. Goncharov. The heroes of his novel, peers and friends, I. I. Oblomov and A. I. Stolts, are shown almost according to the same scheme: childhood, environment, education. But Stolz tried to change his friend’s sleepy life. His attempts were unsuccessful. After Oblomov’s death, Andrei took his son Ilya into his family. This is what real friends do.
  10. I.A. Goncharov "Oblomov". In friendship there is mutual influence. Relationships can be fragile if people are unwilling to help each other. This is shown in the novel by I.A. Goncharov "Oblomov". The apathetic, difficult-to-rise nature of Ilya Ilyich and the young energy of Andrei Stolts - all this spoke of the impossibility of friendship between these people. However, Andrei made every effort to encourage Oblomov to do some kind of activity. True, Ilya Ilyich could not adequately respond to his friend’s concern. But Stolz’s desires and attempts deserve respect.
  11. I.S. Turgenev "Fathers and Sons". Friendship is not always strong, especially if it is based on the subordination of one person to another. A similar situation was described by Turgenev in the novel “Fathers and Sons.” Arkady Kirsanov was at first an ardent supporter of Bazarov's nihilistic views and considered himself his friend. However, he quickly lost his conviction and went over to the side of the older generation. Bazarov, according to Arkady, was left alone. This happened because the friendship was not equal.
  12. N.V. Gogol “Taras Bulba” (about friendship, camaraderie). It is said in N. Gogol’s story “Taras Bulba” that “there is no holier bond than comradeship.”

Reflections on the influence of war on the fate of a person and a country (based on the story by V. Nekrasov “In the Trenches of Stalingrad”)

Viktor Nekrasov worked on his story, a work of epic sound, from 1944 to 1946. The writer depicts the front, rear, defenders of Stalingrad, the city itself and the great Volga as forces opposing the enemy, creating the conditions for his death. The pages of the novel describe the “trench truth” of great and heroic events.

The hero of the story is Lieutenant Kerzhentsev, who arrived in Stalingrad in the hot summer of 1943, and before his eyes the heroic epic of the city’s defense unfolded. When he arrived in the city, he lived peaceful life. The country built Stalingrad during the first five-year plans; it was prescribed the significance of the most important strategic object of a national scale.

Over the course of several months, the city was bombed numerous times and turned into ruins. There are no entire neighborhoods left; only the black chimneys, the remains of stoves in the ashes, looked especially scary against the background of the clear blue sky.

Sappers led by Kerzhentsev arrived at the thermal power plant, which was to be blown up. The system was led Chief Engineer Georgy Akimovich is a bilious, nervous, irritable person.

Kerzhentsev quickly understood the essence of Georgy Akimovich, his invaluable human qualities: he has golden hands, he is one of those craftsmen on whom the Russian land stands. He knew the plant thoroughly because he built it.

In total, seventy people remained from the battalion in which Kerzhentsev served. The defense line of Stalingrad is a catastrophically small, narrow strip one and a half kilometers wide and five to six kilometers long. Only a few battalions were stationed on the defense line. At the cost of extraordinary dedication, these small forces defended Stalingrad and tried to block the Nazis’ path to the Volga. Behind them was Russian land, “which the enemy did not desecrate.”

Kerzhentsev’s battalion had the task of defending the territory of the Metiz plant. The fighters were instructed to cling their teeth to the ground and hold the territory, even the most a small part her. The defense of Mamayev Kurgan was also a strategic task of the heroic battalion.

Each fighter from Kerzhentsev’s entourage during the battle, holed up in his own trench, was cut off from his comrades by continuous enemy fire. Together with a rifle and a machine gun, it constituted a separate combat unit, firing at enemy positions.

The battles were defensive; sometimes the defense participants undertook separate attacks of an offensive nature. So, as a result of a crushing hand-to-hand attack, an unnamed height was captured. The Germans cut off the participants in the assault, and they had to hold out without water and with the dying wounded for two days until reinforcements arrived.

Communication with the mainland was dangerous; there, beyond the Volga, they are ours. From there, the soldiers of the Stalingrad group were supplied with food and ammunition, and wounded soldiers were taken there. Under these conditions, it was impossible to rely only on a night crossing: the front required enormous effort. Without an established connection with the rear, its power would dry up.

Therefore, the crossing operated during the day.

How many times did Kerzhentsev and his comrades witness how our boats and soldiers perished in the waters of the Volga under the crushing fire of the Germans. Sometimes the lucky ones managed to overcome the danger, arrive unharmed on the other side and return back.

Wonderful people surrounded Kerzhentsev - lieutenant builder Lisagor with his company, company commander Chumak, his brave comrade, officer Sedykh, clever orderly Valega, hero and home front worker Georgy Akimovich.

It was always especially dangerous to be at the most advanced lines of defense, in the center of events: every person was at any moment at mortal risk. On the day when Kerzhentsev’s formation repulsed seven attacks, four people were killed, four were wounded, and a machine gun was destroyed.

And yet, several months of defensive battles led to the fulfillment of the plan: the forces fueling the Nazi offensive were catastrophically melting. And although the battles were grueling, it was felt that the enemy had weakened, lost confidence, and his end was near.

It should not be argued that only the war made the defenders of Stalingrad heroes, true patriots, devoted to the idea of ​​defending the Fatherland. These people originally had such qualities. The war only tested their strength.

War is a terrible word. War takes thousands of innocent lives, breaks destinies, and brings physical and moral torment. Are all global goals worth at least one human life? B.L. Vasilyev, a Russian writer, raises in the text the problem of the cruelty of war.

The author wishes to draw the readers' attention to the bravery of those who fought. To do this, Boris Vasiliev retells the legend about the unknown soldier who defended Brest Fortress from the Germans. The author admires the courage of the defender, because to save the Motherland he fought alone. “A year of fighting in the unknown, without neighbors to the left and right, without orders and rears, without shifts and letters from home.”

Boris Vasiliev also talks about old woman, who lost her son Nikolai in the war and comes to Brest every year on June 22. The author notes that the woman does not leave the station, but spends the whole day reading the inscription on the plate that hangs at the entrance to the station. B.L. Vasiliev wants to show how important it is for a woman to know that her son was a worthy defender of the Fatherland. “There is no need to explain anything to her: it is not so important where our sons lie. All that matters is what they fought for."

I will prove my point by turning to Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy’s epic novel “War and Peace,” which describes the events of the War of 1812. Petya Rostov is still a very young boy. But, seeing the danger that threatened his homeland, he decided to go fight. Petya asked his father to get him a job under the threat of escape. No matter how hard his mother, Princess Natalya Rostova, tried to persuade her beloved son to abandon this idea, young Rostov insisted on his own. Petya went to war, but never returned. He died with dignity, like a real warrior, a soldier. But how much pain Petya’s death brought to his parents! L.N. With this episode, Tolstoy showed how the war took the lives of very young boys.

Another example that confirms my idea is the events of the Great Patriotic War. When its beginning was announced, many boys, having barely graduated from school or even not finishing their studies, went to the front. They were forbidden because of their young age, but they still ran away because they knew what danger threatened their homeland. Soviet Union won this war, but at what cost! Tens of millions killed and wounded. Every family had a loss, an irreparable loss. There is no father, husband, brother or son. All of them are heroes, because, without sparing their lives, they defended their Motherland. This war spared no one, not even the unarmed people in the rear, who were eagerly awaiting the end of the horror that was happening around them. There were also many killed among them.

So, war is a terrible phenomenon that people should avoid, because its victims are human lives. I would like to believe that such cruel ordeals will not happen again in the future.

Vasil Bykov “Sotnikov”, “Obelisk” A striking example moral choice can be found in Vasil Bykov’s work “Sotnikov”. Partisan Sotnikov, faced with a choice between life and death, was not afraid of execution and admitted to the investigator that he was a partisan, and the others had nothing to do with it. Another example can be found in Vasil Bykov’s story “Obelisk”: teacher Moroz, having a choice to stay alive or die along with the students whom he always taught goodness and justice, chooses death, remaining a morally free person.

Arguments for the essay

A. S. Pushkin "The Captain's Daughter" A hero with high moral qualities is Petrusha Grinev, a character in A. S.

He could not leave Shvabrin’s slander against Masha unpunished, so he challenged him to a duel. Shvabrin is the complete opposite of Grinev: he is a person for whom the concept of honor and nobility does not exist at all. He walked over the heads of others, stepping over himself to please his momentary desires.

Happiness

Arguments for the essay

A.I. Solzhenitsyn “One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich” Everyone understands happiness differently. The hero of the story, for example, by A.I. Solzhenitsyn “One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich” recognizes himself as “happy” because he did not end up in a punishment cell, received an extra bowl of soup, did not get sick, but the main thing is that he rejoices in honest work. The writer admires the patience and hard work of the Russian people, who believes in God and hopes for his help.

Evil, good and artistic activity

Arguments for the essay

Akutagawa Ryunosuke "The Torments of Hell" Creates a psychological portrait of the elder artist Yoshihide, very famous in his area - primarily for his terrible, asocial character and corresponding paintings. The only thing that pleases his eyes is his only daughter. One day, the ruler ordered a painting from him depicting Hell and the torment of sinners in it. The old man agreed, however, on the condition that for greater realism he would see the death of a woman in a falling carriage. He was given this opportunity, however, as it turned out later, that woman turned out to be his own daughter. Yoshihide calmly works on the painting, but upon completion, he commits suicide. Thus, it is worth assessing art through morality, but this assessment entirely depends on the actual ideals of the assessing subject. Yoshihide had one value - his daughter, whom he lost because of art.

Arguments for the essay

Arguments for the essay

Griboyedov "Woe from Wit" Comedy "Woe from Wit" by Griboyedov. Chatsky is a rebel, a rebel, rises up against the crowd, Moscow society of that time. Their habits are wild and alien to him; the morality of society amazes him. He is not afraid to speak his mind. In the monologue “Who are the judges?” its essence is fully revealed. The problem with the crowd is that they do not know how to listen and do not even want to listen to the truth. They consider as “truth” the precepts of their hypocritical fathers, which have long since become obsolete. Mayakovsky's creativity Mayakovsky's work is devoted to the theme of confrontation between the hero and the crowd. The crowd is vulgar people living spiritually. They don’t see beauty, they don’t understand real art. The hero is alone in his world. He does not shy away from the crowd, does not hide, but boldly challenges it, ready to fight misunderstandings. For example, in the poem “Could You?” a sharp line has been drawn between “I” and “you”.

National enmity

Arguments for the essay

A. Pristavkin “The golden cloud spent the night” The problem of national enmity is especially acute in A. Pristavkin’s story “The Golden Cloud Spent the Night.” The author shows us the tragic events of the 40s of the twentieth century associated with the resettlement of orphanages to the Caucasus, to territories “liberated” from local residents- Chechens. The revenge of people forcibly evicted from the land of their ancestors falls on innocent people, including children. We see how a brutal murder separates twin brothers Sashka and Kolka Kuzmenysh. It is symbolic that at the end of the story Kolka calls him his brother Chechen boy Alkhuzura. So the author convinces us that all peoples are brothers, that the humane human principle is stronger than evil, that the government that incites national hatred commits a crime against humanity and mankind.

Personality in history: Peter I

Arguments for the essay

A.S. Pushkin "The Bronze Horseman" A.S. Pushkin wrote in “The Bronze Horseman”...Nature here destined us to cut a window into Europe... These lines were written about Peter the Great.

Peter launched large-scale reforms of the Russian state, changed the social structure: he cut off the boyars’ sleeves and beards. He built the first Russian fleet, thereby protecting the country from the sea. Here he is, that person, that person who did a lot of great and heroic things in his life, who made history. L.N. Tolstoy "War and Peace" L.N. Tolstoy denied the possibility of an individual actively influencing history, believing that history is made by the masses and its laws cannot depend on desire individual. He viewed the historical process as a sum made up of “countless human arbitrariness,” that is, the efforts of each person. It is useless to resist the natural course of events, it is in vain to try to play the role of the arbiter of the destinies of mankind. This position of the writer was reflected in the novel “War and Peace”. Using the example of two historical figures: Kutuzov and Napoleon, Tolstoy proves that it is the people who are the creator of history. Millionary masses ordinary people It is not heroes and generals who unconsciously move society forward, create something great and heroic, and create history.

Sharikov is an image of a boorish attitude towards people. D.I. Fonvizin “Minor” Outraged by other people's rudeness, people often do not notice that they themselves sometimes behave just as outrageously. Perhaps this can best be seen in the relationship of parents to children. A person’s character is formed in the family, but what kind of person could Mitrofanushka become? He adopted all the vices from his mother: extreme ignorance, rudeness, greed, cruelty, contempt of others, rudeness. Not surprising, because parents are always the main role models for children. And what kind of example could Mrs. Prostakova set for her son if she allowed herself to be rude, rude, and humiliate those around him in front of his eyes?

Only years later, having lost almost all his illusions and hopes for the future, Philip understands what he meant and admits that “life has no meaning, and human existence is purposeless. Knowing that nothing makes sense and nothing matters, a person can still find satisfaction in choosing the various threads that he weaves into the endless fabric of life. There is one pattern - the simplest and most beautiful: a person is born, matures, gets married, gives birth to children, works for a piece of bread and dies; but there are other, more intricate and amazing patterns, where there is no place for happiness or the desire for success - perhaps some kind of alarming beauty is hidden in them.”

Self-realization, aspirations

Arguments for the essay

Self-sacrifice

Arguments for the essay

Arguments for the essay

A.I. Solzhenitsyn "Matryonin's yard" In the story “Matryonin’s Dvor” by the Russian writer, Nobel Prize winner in literature A.I. Solzhenitsyn is struck by the image of the peasant woman Matryona, her humanity, selflessness, compassion and love for everyone, even strangers. Matryona “helped strangers for free”, but she herself “didn’t chase after the acquisition”: she didn’t start “good”, didn’t try to get a tenant. Her mercy is especially evident in the situation with the upper room. She allowed her house (where she lived all her life) to be dismantled into logs for the sake of her pupil Kira, who had nowhere to live. The heroine sacrifices everything for the sake of others: the country, neighbors, relatives. And after her quiet death, a description arises of the cruel behavior of her relatives, who are simply overwhelmed by greed.

Ingratitude of children parental love

Arguments for the essay

A. S. Pushkin “Station Warden” Samson Vyrin, the main character of the story, has a daughter, Dunya, whom he dotes on. But a passing hussar, who has his eye on the girl, tricks her into taking her away from her father’s house. When Samson finds his daughter, she is already married, well dressed, lives much better than him and does not want to return. Samson returns to his station, where he subsequently drinks himself and dies. Three years later, the narrator drives through those places and sees the grave of the caretaker, and a local boy tells him that in the summer a lady came with three young children and cried for a long time at his grave. F.M. Dostoevsky "Humiliated and Insulted" Natasha, the heroine of the novel by F.M. Dostoevsky's "Humiliated and Insulted", betrays his family by running away from home with his lover. The girl’s father, Nikolai Ikhmenev, is sensitive to her leaving for the son of his enemy, considering it a shame, and curses his daughter. Rejected by her father and having lost her beloved, Natasha is deeply worried - she has lost everything that was valuable in her life: her good name, honor, love and family. However, Nikolai Ikhmenev still madly loves his daughter, no matter what, and after much mental anguish, at the end of the story, he finds the strength to forgive her. In this example, we see that parental love is the strongest, selfless and forgiving. D. I. Fonvizin “Minor” Despite the fact that Mrs. Prostakova is a rude, greedy landowner, she loves her only son Mitrofan and is ready to do anything for him. But the son turns away from her at the most tragic moment. This example shows us that parents try to do everything for the benefit of their children. But children, unfortunately, cannot always appreciate and understand this. A. S. Griboedov “Woe from Wit” The Russian writer A. S. Griboedov did not ignore the problem of fathers and children in his work “Woe from Wit.” The comedy traces Famusov's relationship with his daughter Sophia. Famusov, of course, loves his daughter and wishes her happiness. But he understands happiness in his own way: happiness for him is money. He accustoms his daughter to the idea of ​​profit and thereby commits a real crime, because Sophia can become like Molchalin, who adopted only one principle from her father: to seek profit wherever possible. The fathers tried to teach their children about life, in their instructions they conveyed to them what was most important and significant for themselves.

Generation Conflict

Arguments for the essay

I. S. Turgenev “Fathers and Sons” The novel by the Russian writer I. S. Turgenev “Fathers and Sons.” We see a conflict of generations in the relationship between Bazarov and his parents. The main character has very contradictory feelings towards them: on the one hand, he admits that he loves his parents, on the other, he despises the “stupid life of his fathers.” What alienates Bazarov from his parents is, first of all, his beliefs. If in Arkady Kirsanov we see superficial contempt for the older generation, caused more by the desire to imitate a friend, and not coming from within, then with Bazarov everything is different. This is his position in life. With all this, we see that it was to the parents that their son Evgeniy was truly dear. The old Bazarovs love Evgeny very much, and this love softens their relationship with their son, the lack of mutual understanding. It is stronger than other feelings and lives even when the main character dies.

Teacher influence

Arguments for the essay

In the story by V.G. Rasputin "French Lessons" an ordinary village boy hard fate and hunger force him to contact local boys and start gambling for money. Having found out that the child is malnourished and has no other way to get the funds he needs, a young French teacher, Lidia Mikhailovna, invites the boy to take additional French classes. But this is only a plausible excuse. In reality, she strives to somehow help a child who finds himself in a difficult situation, but out of pride he refuses to have dinner with his teacher and indignantly returns the parcel of food to her. Then she offers to play with her for money, knowing for sure that he will beat her, receive his treasured ruble and buy the milk that he so needs. She deliberately commits a crime from a pedagogical point of view, breaks all existing rules for the sake of her student, showing genuine philanthropy and unseen courage. The school director, however, considered playing with a student a crime, seduction, and fired Lydia Mikhailovna. Having gone to her home in Kuban, the woman did not forget the boy and sent him a parcel to school with food and even apples, which the boy had never tried, but had only seen in pictures.
