What are the benefits of ancient prose in guiding primary and middle school students?

The following four points show that ancient poetry is of great benefit to primary and secondary education and various other types of education, including adults. The benefits speak for themselves.

The first is to cultivate sentiment. The truths contained in ancient texts are not outdated. Many of the so-called new concepts, new thoughts or slogans in modern times were once said by the ancients, such as: teaching without distinction, teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, writing to convey the truth, etc. Humility makes people progress, and pride makes people progress. When people fall behind - humility benefits, fullness suffers losses; unity is strength - united as one... Ji Xiaolan once said that all the words in the world have been said by the ancients, and she really had nothing to say, so she had to compile Sikuquanshu.

Secondly, ancient Chinese grammar is great. Ancient Chinese grammar is limited, consisting of a few inverted sentences, omitted sentences, and a few flexible function words. Compared with the huge modern structures of subject, predicate, object, definite adjective and complement, the structure of ancient prose is extremely simple and flexible. It is this grammatical record that makes the article concise and concise, and has lasted for thousands of years. It is very beneficial for people who learn Chinese, especially students, to develop a concise writing style.

Third, ancient Chinese characters pay attention to "refining", and their meanings are extremely precise. It is difficult for people to just glance at the flowers when reading, and they cannot be appreciated unless they are carefully tasted. The pace of life of modern people is too fast, and many people are impetuous. , If you don’t care to appreciate it, it’s hard to see the beauty of ancient prose.

Fourth, the problem of word meaning has been successfully solved. The contents of ancient prose are just a few: descriptions of scenes, letters, biographies, tributes, condolences, memories, memorials, discussions, etc. Most of the articles are not very long. They are basically one discussion of one issue and one emotion. Most of the writers are familiar with history. In the strict logical reasoning, the quotations from scriptures and references can be easily picked up at your fingertips, so they are integrated and dense, so there is a theory of literary spirit and context in ancient Chinese literature. If you read a lot of ancient Chinese, you will be able to grasp the pulse, and it will not be difficult to read the meaning of the text, and understanding the meaning of the words will come naturally.
