The main contents of "Petrified Songs"

Why didn't the earliest fish have a chin?

Why did the earliest birds have mouths and teeth?

Why didn't the first fish land on its legs?

Why didn't the earliest trees bloom?

Will the world that has passed away for thousands of years reappear?

Can a stone that has been sleeping for hundreds of millions of years talk?

Fossils have just awakened underground,

Please tell me those absurd myths one by one.

You remind me of ancient times,

Draw a picture of biological evolution;

You deny the existence of the creator,

Cold bones answer ordinary truth.

Although the body has rotted and disappeared,

The soul of life, fire, dives underground,

The black body is wrapped in the information of life,

Leave a precious password for history.

Time has carved wrinkles on your face,

It's like carefully drawing a life file,

The sea dries up, the rocks rot, the sun rotates and the stars move. ...

The ship of life has been marching from ancient times to modern times.

Recovered dinosaurs and mammoths seem to roar,

How lush and elegant the ancient trees are,

Ah, you-amazing nature,

An outstanding magician and an outstanding sculptor!

The world that has passed away for thousands of years reappears,

The stone that has been sleeping for hundreds of millions of years has spoken.

Fossils have just awakened underground,

What a fascinating and surprising story you told!

First, the overall grasp

Poetry of Fossils is a lyric poem praising fossils, which is selected from 24 Hours of Science by Zhang Feng (No.2, 1982). Reading this poem can arouse people's infinite reverie. Yin is the name of a classical poem. This is the meaning of praise.

This poem has seven sections, which can be divided into three layers. 1 and 2 are 1 layers, which arouse readers' imagination in the form of questions. The continuous questioning shows the author's strong scientific interest and thirst for knowledge, and also opens the floodgates of readers' thinking, allowing readers and the author to think about the mysterious world hundreds of millions of years ago and listen to fossils telling fantastic myths.

Verses 3, 4, 5 and 6 are the main parts of this poem, which are dedicated to expressing reverie. "You lead my thoughts to ancient times" is a sentence to express the author's thoughts, and then to write flying thoughts. Through the study of fossils, scientists have come to the scientific view of biological evolution, and the so-called statement that God created everything is not in line with objective facts. Look, isn't that a cold skeleton certificate? Although ancient creatures have died and their bodies have been wiped out for hundreds of millions of years, they are real evidence of life that once existed. The existence of these buried fossils is enough to prove that life on earth is endless and productive. In these fossils, organic compounds, as the basic substances of life, are preserved, which provides necessary conditions for scientists to study biological evolution. Isn't the residue of these organic substances the information of life? Isn't it the research work of scientists to decipher these codes? Before the fifth festival, two sentences said that "years have carved wrinkles on your face", which naturally reminded readers of people. The wrinkles on a person's face are portraits of the course of life, which is a truth that every reader knows. But the author is not writing about people, but also writing about fossils. The author's thoughts flew to the ancient flood, the sea dried up and the rocks crumbled, the sea changed and the stars changed. No matter how long it takes, no matter how big the change is, it can't stop the ship of life from sailing from ancient times to modern times, and the form of life has evolved from low to high. What is the relationship between wrinkles and fossils? Why does the author write wrinkles? If the fossil is a human face, aren't the wrinkles carved on this face the archives of ancient life on earth? In the sixth section, the author turns to reality. When you visit the Museum of Paleontology, what do you think of the recovered dinosaurs and mammoths? You might imagine it screaming; Standing in the reappearance of ancient trees, don't you admire the beauty of nature? "Admire nature" is the author's heartfelt admiration. Nature is a magician and a sculptor. At this point, the author's feelings reached a climax. After reading this, we will suddenly feel how the four problems in the 1 paragraph in the poem are caused. It may be a question from visiting the museum.

The last section responds to sections 1 and 2, which makes the whole poem complete in structure and has questions and answers.

This poem uses personification. The author regards the fossil as a talking person, and the second person calls it "you", which is naturally kind. Pay attention to the rhythm of poetry in teaching, and experience the musical beauty of poetry through repeated reading.

Second, the problem research

This poem is easy to understand and is a textbook to guide students to expand their imagination and association. In the teaching process, teachers should not be confined to the small circle of Chinese, but should let students think, speak and read aloud. We should pay attention to the combination of Chinese knowledge and knowledge of nature, so that we can learn not only poetry, but also natural science. Of course, Mr. China may know little about fossils, so he might as well find some information when preparing lessons, or ask the biology teacher for help.

There is no need to delve into the meaning of some words in the poem, but a basic understanding is enough.

Editorial appreciation of this work

This is a lyric poem to publicize popular science knowledge. With beautiful language and magical artistic conception, the poet enthusiastically praised the strange talking fossils, showed us the wonders of the mythical biological world hundreds of millions of years ago, let us know the life information of those extinct creatures, and saw its charming style. This poem is ingenious in conception, beautiful in language and artistic conception, and very distinctive.

At the beginning of the poem, the poet uses a set of rhetorical sentences, from the individual to the whole, from fish, birds, trees to the whole world, to send out a series of interesting directions, to stimulate readers' feelings, activate readers' thinking and guide us to think and explore the magical world hundreds of millions of years ago. On this basis, the author tactfully used an anthropomorphic sentence: "Will the world that has passed away for thousands of years reappear? Can a stone that has been sleeping for hundreds of millions of years talk? The fossil that just woke up underground, please tell me that absurd myth. " Full of passion, clever interpretation, always leading the whole poem. A "deep sleep", a "deep sleep" and an "awakening" make poetry echo up and down, interlocking; The word "please" is very human and makes poetry full of interest.

Then, the poet used four poems to spread stories, recite fossils and praise their contributions, showing us the fantastic biological world hundreds of millions of years ago and guiding us to the maze. It is fossils that lead our thoughts to ancient times, paint us a picture of biological evolution, deny the existence of the creator, answer the ordinary truth of biological evolution and hide the information of life. In the process of "the ship of life has been marching from ancient times to modern times"; It is a fossil, "leaving a precious password for history" and preserving "the archives of life"; It is a fossil that allows us to recover dinosaurs and mammoths, making us seem to see their "long neck roar"; Fossils enable us to reproduce ancient trees and see their "lush and elegant" charm. Then, the poet began with the word "ah", expressed his feelings in the second person, talked about lyricism, pushed from chemical stone to nature, and praised nature as "a clever magician and an outstanding sculptor". The poem is beautifully written and affectionate. Because of the extensive use of rhetorical devices such as metaphor and personification, the poems are exquisite and ingenious. "You deny the existence of the creator, and the cold bones answer the ordinary truth." A word is the eye of a poem. The poet not only publicized the knowledge of popular science, but also publicized the truth of materialist evolution, making poetry more meaningful.

Finally, the poet made a special poem in the second verse, and skillfully answered it, which produced a kind of beauty that changed. At the end of the sentence, "the fossil that just woke up underground,/what a fascinating and surprising story you told!" It is not only the repetition and repetition of the poetry in the second verse, but also the finishing touch in a natural way, summarizing the whole poem and releasing it in a powerful way. After reading the above, the poet put the whole poem in such a lyrical discussion, which is original and strengthens the main idea. Isn't the story told in Fossil "fascinating and surprising"?

Poetry tells us the fantastic mythological world of fossil preservation hundreds of millions of years ago, praises fossils and publicizes the truth of biological evolution. It contains rich scientific knowledge and materialistic spirit, giving people profound education and enlightenment. It's really commendable!
