Composition continuation of "Jewelry"

Let’s give another example to discuss the necessity of literary criticism writing

Literary criticism writing: Maupassant’s “Jewelry”

This is a composition training - literary criticism writing, The subject of the review is Maupassant's short story "The Jewels".

Every time I write a composition, I feel a lot of emotion, and this time is no exception.

First of all, students’ reading comprehension skills need to be improved urgently, especially their ability to appreciate novels and other literary works.

Feeling 2: Chinese teaching and examinations should pay enough attention to the reading and appreciation of real literary works.

The third sentiment is that students’ reading habits, methods and quality are very problematic, and the overall trend is sharply declining.

The above issues are interrelated. I think these issues touch on the essence of Chinese education and teaching. This is a big topic that needs to be sat down and discussed, so I will not go into details here.

The following is an explanation of the problems in this composition.

Let me briefly introduce Maupassant's short story "Jewelry" -

The beginning of the novel spends a lot of ink on the "almost indescribable" happy life of a loving couple. , Mrs. Landin is "a decent, stable and kind person", she is "incomparably caring, considerate and gentle to her husband", she is "thrifty and thrifty in housekeeping and careful budgeting", despite the meager income, "their life seems to be very luxurious". But Madame Lantin has two small flaws: she loves theater and she loves fake jewelry. This hobby of going to the theater soon aroused her need to dress up. Despite this, "her clothes were as simple as before, elegant and simple, and her gentle beauty, her charming Her modest, smiling beauty seems to have gained a new charm from her simple dress." No wonder they have been together for six years, and Mr. Landin even "loves her even more than in those first days." However, good things happen to people. Unfortunately, Mrs. Langdan died of illness, and Langdan was heartbroken. When dealing with his wife's belongings, Mr. Landin was surprised to find that the fake jewelry he had kindly laughed at were actually valuable genuine goods! The young civil servant suddenly became stupid. After experiencing some doubts, shame, anger and painful inner torture, he finally sold the jewelry. With this windfall, Mr. Landin lived a life of leisure and enjoyment. .

This novel should not be difficult to read. Through ingenious plot arrangements and multiple contrasts and satirical techniques, the novel reveals how money corrupts morality, destroys beliefs, and corrodes the soul. It is probably human nature to covet comfort, love vanity, and pursue pleasure, but where do all this come from? What price are you willing to pay for this? Loyalty to love, responsibility to family, maintenance of personality and dignity, persistence of conscience, awe of the brilliant starry sky above and the moral law in the heart... Can all of these be ignored? This is the inspiration and thinking this novel gives us.

Students have some questions when reading this novel. I think these questions arise from, first, failure to read the text carefully, second, lack of reading comprehension, and other reasons.

1. Some students are confused, did Mrs. Landin betray love and marriage? Did she lie to her husband and sell her sex life to get expensive jewelry?

I think there is no doubt about this. After reading the entire article, it is already clear where and how those expensive real jewelry came from. There are actually many foreshadowings and hints in the article.

2. Does Madame Lantin have true love for her husband? What does it mean when I write about her gentleness, thoughtfulness, and decency?

The answer is there is no true love. When you look at the back, you will understand that the previous description is bitter irony, and behind the dignified and virtuous person is a fallen soul.

3. Why did Madame Landin still treat her poor husband so well after acquiring a large sum of money? Why not abandon him and find a new love?

Being nice to your husband is just a pretense, and not abandoning your husband is just a temporary solution.

In fact, the above problems should not occur. This is a basic reading ability problem.

The following excerpts are some sentences from students' compositions. Copy them as follows and make some comments.

◆ "If she doesn't love Langdan, why should she stay with him? Therefore, I understand that she 'used' others in order for Langdan to live a better life." (She She did take advantage of others, but she used Lang Dan even more. Of course, there was a person who was more cruel than her, and that was Lang Dan after knowing the truth.)

◆" Can we blame Mrs. Landin for being unfaithful? She was just for her own material needs. At least she gave up the opportunity to leave Landin and provided for his life. "("For her own material needs" is actually a grand statement. It became a reason for "infidelity")

◆ "The source of the jewelry is not clearly explained in the article. It may not be what people imagine. Maybe she was forced to do so, or was threatened, or had difficulties. She She did not want to make her husband sad and painful, but let herself bear it all alone." (Mrs. Landin has become a good person with a spirit of sacrifice. Indeed, some students think that this novel "praises his wife's true love for Landin". It’s really unbelievable. In fact, she is not suffering alone, but enjoying the devilish sex alone.)

◆“Even though she sells her body to her husband outside, this may be the case. It was not her original intention. She was originally poor, and money was not unattractive to her, so it was understandable that she would use her body to make money. Just imagine, if she had not died, her husband would have been happy and the marriage would have been happy. , the day she decides to wash her hands of herself and grow old with her husband, it may not be a wonderful life. In short, no matter what, she gave her true love to her husband and never changed under the temptation of money. This is worthy of recognition. and praise." (Because you are poor, you can use your body to make money. What is the logic of this? If the truth is always concealed, is it really "happy" and "happy", or even "a wonderful life"? Really? It’s surprising. Perhaps, today there are indeed people who want to be “happy” and “fulfilled” in this way. There are indeed people who resort to any means because of “poverty” and find moral support from “poverty”. In fact, there are probably more such “poverties”. It must be a matter of mental poverty. )

◆“However, his wife is dead, and selling her shady jewelry is probably the only way he can relieve his anger... I think this is understandable, indeed, selling jewelry It means pushing the fact that he is a cuckold in front of others, but not selling the jewelry is a cowardly escape. Wouldn't others laugh at him if he didn't sell the jewelry? Wouldn't it be better for him to look at these relics at home? Furthermore, he didn’t even have food to eat at the time, and facing a fortune equivalent to decades of his salary, I’m afraid no one in his position could handle it.” (As I said before, the male character in the novel. What the protagonist did after knowing the truth was ridiculous, sad and abominable. In a sense, he was more cuckold and more rogue than his wife. Despite this, many students defended Mr. Landin, of course. It's untenable. What I'm curious about is why so many people understand and even support the actions of Mrs. Landin and Mr. Landin? )

Why? To be honest, this was beyond my expectation, but now I look back and think about what kind of society we live in today - confusion between right and wrong, indistinguishability between beauty and ugliness, reversal of good and evil, and difficulty in distinguishing true from false. , the rule of law is lax and morality has collapsed, so there is nothing surprising about it. The reason why we cannot read the angry accusations and bitter sarcasm in Maupassant's calm narrative is because compared with today's social atmosphere, the behavior of the Landins is not only understandable, but even praiseworthy. The occurrence of such incredible problems in the reading comprehension of novels is actually no longer a problem in the reading of literary works itself. We have seen how a society's moral customs and spiritual outlook affect people's understanding of a novel. It is precisely for this reason that we must improve our literary and cultural literacy by reading excellent literary works, enhance our ability to identify beauty, ugliness, good and evil, purify our souls, and cultivate our sentiments. Therefore, I strongly advocate that the main task of middle school Chinese teaching is to read excellent classic literary works, while composition teaching should analyze, appreciate, and comment on these works, that is, write literary reviews.

Solemn suggestion: College entrance examination essays should include literary criticism.

Strongly recommended: College entrance examination essays should include literary criticism. Story composition: Who stole the jewelry? Answer

Grandpa Dalmatian opened a jewelry store. The colorful jewelry is so beautiful.

However, one day, when Grandpa Dalmatian got up, he found that the store was dirty and all the jewelry was missing.

If the jewelry is still there, it is broken.

Grandpa Dalmatian was worried and called. The fat pig police and the big bad wolf police arrived immediately.

Asked, "Store manager, what does the robber look like?" The police found all the people who might be robbers, including Brother Monkey, Brother Fox, Mr. Black Bear, Mr. Tiger and Brother Leopard. .

Grandpa Dalmatian thought, "The person who robbed the jewelry wore a gray hat.

"So, they let the little monkey brother go.

"Wearing a blue horizontal striped T-shirt", so they released Brother Leopard again.

"Wearing black shorts.

"The little fox was eliminated again.

Now, there are two left: Mr. Black Bear and Mr. Tiger.

The Fat Pig Police found that Mr. Black Bear did not wear a gray hat on his head, but Mr. Tiger wore a gray hat.

It turns out that Mr. Tiger stole it! So, Mr. Tiger was put in prison to reflect on his life. Composition "How gems are made"

The chemical essence of beautiful gems is nothing more than metal oxides.

In my opinion, the transformation of metal oxides into beautiful gemstones requires three conditions: the influence of the environment, the accumulation of time, and the right timing.

And these are the keys to success.

A tiger comes out of a general's door, and a scholar comes out of a poor man.

The impact of environment on a person is very important, just like the impact of pressure, temperature, etc. on gemstones.

Yang Liulang served as a marshal. Under his strict education and training, his son Yang Zongbao grew up rapidly and became qualified for the important task of marshal. He was not only strong in martial arts, but also loyal and courageous. This is not nepotism. It’s about meritocracy.

A good mother can raise a good son.

When Edison was 5 years old, he heard his mother tell the story of a hen hatching a chick, so he made a small nest, placed a few eggs in it, and squatted on the eggs to hatch the chicks.

The mother did not blame her son when she found out, but discovered his imaginative, reasoning and curious nature.

Later generations praised: "If Edison had not had such a good mother, this genius inventor would most likely have been strangled in his infancy.

" Facts have proved: The environment plays a vital role in human growth.

Be broad-minded and appreciative, accumulate thickly but thinly.

To form a gem requires the accumulation of time, and to become a talent also requires the nurturing of knowledge.

In order to collect literary materials when he was young, the famous writer Pu Songling often went to the market and laid out a piece of cloth under a big tree, with a cigarette rod and a cup of tea on the cloth.

Whenever someone passed by, he would always ask them to have a rest, have a sip of tea, smoke a bag of cigarettes, and then ask them to tell some fairy tales and take notes.

In this way, day after day, year after year, until he was in his forties, he accumulated enough writing materials and finally completed the strange novel "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio".

He used practical actions to tell future generations: Success is waiting for the opportunity through accumulation.

A wise man knows the current affairs, but he who is ignorant is not a wise man.

Proper timing is also the key to turning metal oxides into gemstones. People's success is often inseparable from timing.

American business leader Hammer once said: When others are doing something, look at whether you can do it; when others are not doing anything, look at yourself. Is it okay to do it?

When Americans were afraid to do business in the former Soviet Union, Hamer went to the former Soviet Union alone and discovered after an inspection that there was a severe shortage of food in the former Soviet Union.

Hammer overcame many obstacles and finally exchanged food for a truckload of gold, silver and jewelry.

Hammer made a fortune.

This story tells us: The difference between a hero and a defeated general is who can understand the current affairs.

How are gems made? Environment, timing and nurturing complete the process of turning a stone into a gemstone.

Friends, I hope you and I, like gems, start in good times, melt in adversity, precipitate in waiting, and emerge into butterflies at the right time. My composition twenty years later (written as a jewelry designer) I am not plagiarizing, I am just making the following reference! ...

Here is some information for your reference. There is a certain gap between it and your requirements. Please forgive me! ! Jewelry designers are creators of art, giving people the enjoyment of beauty.

Let the wearer show his personal charm.

How to make the things on your body more attractive? Designers should go beyond basic knowledge.

1. "The designer I want is one who has skills and inspiration!" Jewelry comes from nature, and jewelry improvement comes from inspiration and skills.

However, viable inspiration is based on a solid foundation of skills.

"What jewelry designers want is basic skills!" A jewelry merchant said: "You know what basic skills are, right? It's talent + experience + hard work! This is not just a few years of theoretical study and a few years of practice. It can be achieved! "Jewelry is a special commodity. If you want to exploit the maximum value potential, it depends on the designer's ability: first, relying on the experience and skills of accurate identification and judgment of jewelry; second, relying on the appreciation of art. and creative reinvention skills; the third is the natural ability to grasp fashion but not be constrained.

Without sufficient preparation for hardship, it is impossible to develop these three skills.

2. "Hardship - is the shortcut to becoming a jewelry designer!" What is considered a good design? It is very simple to say, firstly, it is very comfortable to wear; secondly, it can reflect the natural color of gemstones; thirdly, it is recognized by the market.

But just like the formation of jewelry, the designer's brand casting needs constant refinement.

A jewelry expert said: "To create a jewelry designer, it really takes two words: training, innate talent, and acquired persistence!" The main work content of a jewelry designer includes : 1. Understand market information.

2. Conceive the design plan.

3. Produce design artwork.

In this process, in addition to mastering the operation of computer drawing design software such as JCAD and PHOTOSHOP, designers must also properly understand and master the hammering, filing, sawing, welding, inlay, etc. in the jewelry hand-making process. Various basic skills.

It is not difficult to see from the main work content of designers that only by constantly honing their skills and creativity can their ideas be fully reflected in the finished product.

3. "Cultivating your own designers requires a long time of preparation and a suitable environment.

" For those who are interested in the jewelry design industry, on the one hand , we must learn to be tempered in the dark like a gem, accumulate skills, and strive to one day become a treasure and a unique symbol like a gem.

A person cannot have ideals, nor can he have daydreams. He must take practical actions. Since he has chosen her, he must cherish her! What I’m talking about is, don’t get carried away with your career. There must be hardship behind success. I believe I can overcome all difficulties and achieve my ideal goal! That is conquest. Comparison of the two articles "The Necklace" and "The Jewels" by Maupassant (400 words)

In "The Jewels", after Maupassant exposed the hypocrisy and depravity of Mrs. Landin, he did not stop writing there, but cleverly used "Aftermath" is used to expose the despicable mentality and ugly face of Landin, the new philistine in the Paris Vanity Fair. The process of his being shameless and pretending to sell jewelry in a serious manner is exactly the victory of his inner desire for money over his shame. At this point, Maupassant 's short stories are exemplary.

First of all, Maupassant used limited space, a few characters, and relatively simple backgrounds and events... "Jewelry" is quite outstanding in this aspect.

The novel depicts a mediocre "little man" couple who love money more than love. But the best of the six novels is Maupassant's "Ball of Suet", which made Maupassant famous in one fell swoop.

Maupassant's representative novels include "Life" (the first... The second category is about bourgeois fashions and customs. The famous ones include "Jewelry", "My Uncle Jules", etc.

The third category describes the misery of poor people... Composition "How gems are made"

... Imagination composition: On the green tree, there are red fruits hanging. My jewelry is...

Mother’s jewelry was in Rome hundreds of years ago, with two children. While they were playing happily under the early morning sun, their mother Cornelia said: "Dear children, today a rich friend is visiting our home, and he will also show us his jewelry.

< p> "The rich friend came in the afternoon, the gold ring shining dazzlingly on his arm.

Seriously the ring sparkles.

The crystal necklace around her neck emits a soft light.

The younger brother sighed and said to his elder brother: "He looks so noble, I have never seen him before.

"Me too.

"With their Compared with mother, one is in heaven and one is on earth.

Compared with her, their mother seemed too plain and simple.

The rich friend also brought a lot of very expensive jewelry. The two little brothers were stunned and thought: How wonderful our mother has these things! He leisurely opened a metal box, which contained piles of rubies, as red as blood, sapphires as blue as the sky, and sparkling diamonds.

After the guests showed off their jewelry, they said with pride and pity: "Tell me, Cornelia, are you really so poor? Don't you have any jewelry?" Their mother was proud. Said: "I have it! And it is more precious than yours.

My children are my jewelry.

" Then he pushed the child to his side.

People often say, "Only when you are pregnant for ten months do you realize how great your mother is.

"When the child is born, it starts to cry for the first time, and the mother smiles with tears. The mother is happy. Pain is nothing in front of my mother.

So we should be grateful.

I suddenly thought of "Grateful Heart" sung by Ouyang Feifei: I came from by chance like a piece of dust. Who can see my fragility? Where do I come from? Where do my feelings go? Who will call me in the next moment? Although this road is wide, it is difficult to walk. I have seen all the ups and downs in this world and the hard work. How much love I still have, how many tears I still have. God knows how many tears I still have. I will never give up. I am grateful. Thank you for having you by my side throughout my life. You have given me the courage to be myself. I am grateful. I am grateful to fate and I will cherish it even when the flowers bloom and fall... Please write a composition about a businessman who got a valuable gem...

Experience and Courage Material Composition Experience and Courage Perhaps, it doesn't matter whether a person has experience or not, because one day you will find that one point of courage is no less than nine points of experience.

——Inscription If you were a sculptor and wanted to cut a valuable diamond, but cutting this diamond would be very risky, would you agree immediately or give it careful consideration? Someone will definitely say: "Only a foolish boy would take the risk to cut a diamond!" However, there was a young beginner who agreed to the project and perfectly cut the diamond into two parts.

Yes, this beginner has no experience. He is just a young apprentice. However, no matter how careful the plan is, if no one has the courage to try, is it also in vain? There are countless multiple-choice questions in life. We don’t have to consider what will happen if we make the wrong choice. That is just a reason for the timid to escape.

We should have the courage to answer decisively without considering the risks of doing so.

Just like the sentence in Love Apartment: "Just like that toy store, maybe when I am ready, it will be closed long ago.

"Experienced old sculpture I have made a very careful plan, but still don’t have the courage to execute it. Therefore, no matter how perfect the plan is, it will not work without confidence and courage.

Courage is essential. You must have the courage to persevere.

A and B want to go out from a place, but they have to climb over 100 walls. When they climb to 50 walls, B wants to go back, but A asks B to hold on for a while, saying that maybe he can get there soon. arrived; when they climbed to the 80th wall, both of them could hardly climb; when they climbed to the 99th wall, the experience of A and B told them that they would definitely not be able to get out, so B suggested: "We Go back?" A agreed.

Some people think this is a little joke, but if A and B firmly believe that they can get out, and have enough courage to climb over these 100 walls, wouldn't they get out? On the road to success, be sure not to lose yourself, because success is often only a wall away from you.

No one knows what the probability of success is, because no one can predict the future, but we must know that if we don’t even have the courage to do something, how can we succeed

Life is like water, flowing through the north and south of the river; time is like a song, floating through the ups and downs of life.

He left me with wonderful memories, they are as dazzling as pearls, playing in my mind like a projector.

Everyone has many beautiful memories in life, but there are always some fragments in these memories that we cannot forget.

Whenever we calm down, it will always come to our mind.

In my memory, the "pearls" in my memory remain in my childhood, when I and my friends played rubber band jumping and made clay figures.

Carefree and relaxed, what a wonderful time it was.

I really wanted to freeze time at that time, but Grandpa Time didn’t seem to hear my advice and still kept ticking forward.

Now, it has long become a memory. Whenever I think of this memory, I can't help but laugh.

Laughing at my naivety back then.

Lively.

From now on, this memory is treasured in my heart like a pearl.

Beautiful memories are like mellow wine, which grows mellow over time; like sweet milk tea, which is endlessly memorable; like bitter coffee, which is slightly bitter but actually sweet, and is more like jewelry. It will never be used up in a lifetime.

Pick up the pearl in your memory and add a beautiful memory to your life.

Leave a few more beautiful pearls for you who are about to grow old.

Let us pick up the pearls of memory.
